Solutions I’ve tried (all found in other topics):
- Firmware downgrade to RUTM_R_00.07.13.4_WEBUI.bin (no success)
- Prefered network type: 5G/4G/3G → 4G only (no success)
- VoLTE: Auto → Off (no success)
- Reset over bootloader (no success)
It seems that the modem firmware is buggy.
There are a lot off topics pointing in the same direction.
Need help before sending back the device.
Best regards
