Help Nexus 5 Calls on Lollipop 5.0

I have not personally. However, it would be nice to know the carrier you are on and the signal levels you have when this happens.
 
Same here!!! Random hangups, and now my signal level goes 3-4 bars to nothing and back every 20 seconds. I hope there's some fix for this... Edit:

Based on my Nexus experience with each model since the very first one, the two best, that have provided me with great call quality and connectivity are my current models N5 & N6.

Those who are experiencing problems I would suggest you call your carrier and ask if they are having problems with the Nexus.

At work a large number of my fellow engineers have Nexus 6 models since the 6" display is ideal for the work we do. Thus far we've all been lucky, no one has experienced any issues, it's simply amazing.

The Nexus 6 has been the best phone we've had.

We're all on the AT&T Network
 
Truthfully after upgrading to the latest 5.0 baseband/radio on my N5, my signal has never been better.
I get more LTE service more so now and in area's that I never got LTE before than I have on any other baseband/radio version previously released and I've tested them each extensively to see which if any were better than another and by far the current 5.0 radio by far has the best reception for me.
I'm on MetroPCS.
Typically sitting on my driveway I would get 1-2 bars of 3g before, currently I'm getting 2-3 bars of LTE and couldn't be happier with that!
 
Have anybody had the same issue im having on my nexus 5 running lollipop 5.0, when on a call it randomly hangs up.
I have a different problem with calls since I updated. Phone rings when there is an incoming call but the screen stays black. When I depress the power button, the phone stops ringing. When I log on, the incoming phone call displays and I can answer the phone though it is not ringing. So, I cannot answer the phone without logging in. I have checked the settings, calls are priority and cleared the cache.

Do you have a 4g/LTE connection? Because interestingly, when i upgraded to 4g/LTE a couple weeks ago on my network here in the UK, my signal would be 2 or 3 bars and every five to ten minutes it would lose signal and take nearly half a minute for it to come back. Whereas before on 3g i had great signal and no problems.

What I do now, because for me where I am 4g isnt that great unless im in London, is in the settings I've set it back to 3g in preferred networks. Signal and reception is back to where it was before i upgraded to 4g.
