Hi guys,
I have this strange problem, it even seems random.
After I turn wifi off, my Note does not connect to 3g anymore.
And I have to reboot the phone to get it working again.
Does anyone experience the same problem, or knows a sollution?
I rooted KK1 and flashed LA4 using Mobile Odin.
Cheers,
Daan
I've had this problem once, but it worked again after a reboot. Haven't experienced it again. It happened on KK5, but i flashed LA4 yesterday, so it's too early to tell if it will happen again.
It also happened on my Desire HD with MIUI and also while running CM7, so it might turn out to be a bug in Android.
I guess you had turned/switched off data network mode by pressing and holding the turn off button for two seconds.
Try and turn it off and see if it is the same symptom that you had before.

No, this is not the issue.
I manually set the APN settings for Telfort, removing MMS and setting it up for "internet" only.
Did a wifi on/off cycle, with a short interval and it seems to work.
Going to test with a longer interval. Not completely convinced yet.
Hope it's fixed.
---------------
edit: Not fixed!
On wifi for half an hour, turned it off and [email protected]#$% 3g does not connect anymore.
Maybe it's just Telfort. They don't have the Note listed on their website, but still.
My infuse 4g does this. I have to put it in airplane mode then back to get my data to reconnect. It did this stock and on serindipity 7. I couldn't find a fix either.

Annoying stuff! Cycling airplane mode does not work for me, only a full reboot.
But if you had the problem too, It could be that it's the network's (in my case Telfort's) problem.
Maybe I have to get my sim replaced, but I'm switching to T-Mobile in about a month.
So it's a bit of a pain.
I am currently using the infuse on o2 in Germany, but it did it on att in the states also. I can't wait to get my note. I am just waiting for it to be released on o2 over here. They have the black but I really want a white one.

Telfort used to be O2, it has been using KPN's network for a while now.
So it's probably not connected. Though it is a strange coincidence.
I'm off today, I think I'll walk by the Telfort store to ask for a new sim or something.
Maybe they'll have to flip a switch somewhere.

Yeah you're right, I have to troubleshoot properly. But it's such a pain
And I think I recall having this problem a few roms back as well.
I'm not sure because I was on wifi all the time.
But I have to wipe, I'll use titanium backup so it won't be such a hard blow
Man I'm going to pissed if it turns out to be the network

Thats a pain i was so tired of formating,..reformatting....coz many custom firmware have some error and new updates keep coming almost daily...and all ask to wipe for best experience..dat was when i finally decided to come bk to stock and stick to it...
yeah it doesnt hav those fancy colors and throbbing speed which a custom rom boosts about but...but hey everythin works flawlessly and i dnt have any tension of random reboots and alarm not ringing..or any smartphone related error to comeup...plus all my apps and schedule is there forever no reinstalling tension....enjoying my phone....
Okay, so I I did a full wipe and installed a deodexed rooted LA4.
I still have this issue.
Also tested on KK1 stock and still experienced this issue.
If it does this on KK1 and LA4 it's reason enough for me to believe it's the network.
I'll just wait for my T-Mobile plan to start. Meh.
edit: It seems to work just fine on CM9 :-/

Same issue here. I notice if I force it to Edge then Edge works, but no 3G after 5.0.5.3 and i flashed the EPE54B radio with the apps. I'm thinking it's the radio but i can't find the previous image to test it out...

I have the same issue after flash CM5.05.3 and radio EPE54B.
It can't use airplan mode to solve the problem, only reboot.
Does any sollution? Help !!
After trying a million things my sister tells me her mytocuh is having the same issue. I called T-Mobile and they don't know crap. It just now started working again for me almost a day later out of the blue.
Yea I still for nothing no edge or roams mg data just got calling network irk what it is so guess just deal with it. Closest city with 3g to me is 40mi lol
Sounds like a problems with T-Mobile and not the ROM. Make sure you have "Allot data connection while roaming" checked also or you'll never have data while roaming

yea bout the only reason left. yes i have allow data raoming on but get nothing. dont know if its radio kernel or cyan or what
I am quite baffled by this but it seems that my data connection is just gone somehow, I was watching TV and i looked and my little "H" symbol wasn't at the top nor an "E" and all i have is bars. My sister's phone (non-smartphone) has 3g still though. Could this be due to me doing something or should i just try flashing back to stock?
EDIT: I found out my problem, I guess I pressed data network mode by accident in the extended power menu.

Tried this one, no luck. Thanks though
If you have wifi you can flash a different modem
no access to wifi right now :|
If you have a pc you can mount to you can dl modern to pc then transfer
Do you think a new modem would really fix it though? I've been using this ROM for more than a month now and this has never happened before.
Did you call at&t to see if there are issues in your area?
Who knows if modern change will work, worth a shot
haven't called at&t yet, i'll try that.
Okay i got a hold of at&t and they told me there aren't any data outages in my area.
Normally I would say make sure your apn settings are right but if it was working and now it is not that does not make sense have you tried moving location

Hmmm, well the new modem didn't solve my problem. That sort of disappointed me, haha. But I really dont want to flash stock and the problem persist and feel like i wasted time and have to restore everything, even though i would most likely flash a new ROM which i kind of want to do anyways.
Hi,
Got a really annoying issue with my Nexus One that has been happening since the Froyo days, when I leave home to go to work I turn the Wi-Fi off on my phone to save battery. Sometimes I use the widget sometimes I go through the settings.
The problem is that the 3G doesn't alway's kick in, the only way for me to get 3G working is to turn my phone off and on which always works.
Any suggestions on why this is happening and how to resolve them?
I am running Stock Ginger Bread on my Nexus One on the the Vodafone network in the UK.
Try checking your signal strength: *#*#4636#*#*
You can try to enable 3G only and see if you can keep a signal.
My signal is sometimes intermittent due to topography. Stupid flat Ohio. Haha

Thanks, it won't be that though because once I turn the phone off then back on it's there. Also once I turn W-Fi off and 3G doesn't kick in, then it won't do untill I restart. Also another reason why I know this isn't the case is because even when I do this at work 3G doesn't kick in and there is a Vodafone 3G mast on the roof
never seen this problem before, but it sounds like something that might have to be fixed by doing a full wipe and reflashing your ROM. i know its drastic, so maybe do a nand backup first. then flash and see if the problem remains. if its still there, than just go right back to your backup and no harm and nothing lost. worth a shot.

I'm on a stock Nexus One unrooted so I shouldn't have to Root to fix an Android problem. Never Rooted before but considering it.
I got the exact same problem with Froyo and Gingerbread ROMs, can't remember if I had that issue with MIUI ROMs, but definitely with CyanogenMod ROMs.
Instead of rebooting the phone I suggest switching flight mode on/off it's faster than a full reboot
Haven't found any real solution yet and always thought I'm teh only one with that problem as I couldn't find any other person with that issue. Right now I'm testing different Radio/ROM combination and if that doesn't work I'll need to check if any app is causing the problem.
Any chance you are using Tasker?

I used to use Tasker but uninstalled it when I thought that it was causing this, it wasn't. Thanks for the tip about airplane mode, worked a treat.
First of all, let me start of what I've tried doing, in order.
New SIM-card, factory reset, unlock + root, custom ICS (VirtousQuattro).
None of the above solved my problem, it still persists! The problem is, the phone disconnects completely from the network (no bars) and I can't manually search for a new provider due "active package transmission" or something like that, it stays disconnected for 1-3 minutes and then reconnects. It happens fairly often, like once for every 5 times I try using the phone. I haven't noticed the problem when being connected to a WiFi, so I'd assume the problem is related to an issue between the phone and the network.
Has anybody else had this problem? Any idea how to solve it?
Have you tried flashing a new Radio? I can't see how that would differ from flashing a custom ROM, but might be worth a shot?

So much for being "unlocked". Also, hey mate
Yes Naforcee, I have exactly the same problem. And it never happens while using wifi as you said.
It started immediately after I updated to Sense 3 / Android 2.3.5 from HTC.
What was the version of Android in your previous Rom? I had issues when I was on Froyo and went to Gingerbread without flashing a new radio.

Don't think it's a physical problem, I have perfect connection and it just dies out for about 2 min until it reconnects, and I can't search for network when it's down due to active packet transfer..
Could try a new SIM card. Might not fix it, but worth a shot - I've seen this posted as a fix for other people.
I used to have this problem on certain radios on the Desire Z, after flashing around a bunch of radios to try all of them. Stuck with one and it went away, so it was software for me.

Try flashing this radio http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1471861 using the ADB method. If that doesn't help I recommend doing a full wipe and reinstalling the ROM. There are a lot of different custom ROMs for IncS which can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136463
I personally like Niks ROM and Android Revolution HD.
Looks like rom installation issue.
My son's Inc-S having a similar problem to the OP, but more severe. A couple of weeks ago he entered airplane mode with all behaving normally, but since exiting airplane mode at the end of the flight he hasn't been able to register on the network (voice or data). We've tried:
fiddling with all the network settings
change sims (all sims work on my Inc2, none work on his IncS)
cleaning the antenna connections
reboot
factory reset
flashing new ROM (Android Revolution HD 2.3.0)
flashing new radio (3805.10.03.29_M)
So far, no satisfaction. We're still seeing no bars of reception (with an X) in the notification area, and don't have the option to manually or automatically register with any network operator (although several occasionally show up as options under "Search Networks"). We usually get the error message, "Unable to search for network while packet connection is active" when trying to select a network. Funny thing is, mobile network data has been shut off on his phone for the past month so the packet connection is definitely not active (wifi is on). Based on a network signal analyzer app, the phone is receiving the same mobile network signal as mine (-65 to -70 db) when they are side-by-side, so the problem does not appear to be in the antenna. The phone works just fine using wifi but is useless as a phone.
Any ideas about what to try next?

Probably a RIL-Radio communication issue. Recommended radio is the newer 3822.01.08.14_M radio, so maybe you should try that.
I have an issue where I lose mobile signal every few minutes. If I use Llama and check the "recent" tab I can see Cell: -1:-1:-1 every 10 mins or so and if I'm using the phone the signal will go to nothing, then within a few seconds go back up. Has anybody else seen this issue? I've done a factory reset and it didn't help. I'm waiting to hear back from Sony support, but they're been pretty useless for me in the past.

I encountered the same problem on my xperia l.
You could try taking the battery out the phone when it is switched on "hard reset" ,then take out the sim card and reboot, then switch off, put sim card back in and reboot, it may take a couple of minutes, it's worked for some, Me included
Another thing You could try is putting Your phone into GSM mode from settings but this means You need to keep changing modes when data roaming

Whilst we appreciate the sentiment please take a look at the forum your posting your advice in. The Xperia Z1 does not have a removable battery and the term 'switched on ''hard reset'' ' makes no sense unless you mean using the red button in place of a battery pull.
Not trying to be rude but its frustrating when your device drops signal and the best advice you get is regarding completely different hardware.
To Chrisduffer: Have you rooted your device/unlocked the bootloader or flashed another ROM? If so perhaps consider an alternative Kernel or a software update via the flashtool if its still using the stock kernel?
same problem. No root / no flash. Stock 4.3. Same issue even before update to 4.3.
Any idea what to do? My signal drops down every day like 5-6 times for about 20-30 seconds with no reason. I'm also not able to connect to 3G (at least phone is not showing 3g sign next to the signal strenght).
Hmm...this is interesting because actually I saw this up and down on mine too but I was able to call and receive calls anyway...so I newer bother if is an issue or not...but I losing the internet connection frequently so what's wrong?
Instresting...mine too...stock 4.2.2 rooted, Lb....but when my signal totally drops I am able to call or text!

Sounds almost like the modem driver is crashing and then restarting. Factory default is what I would try first, unless this is happening in places where you have weak signal or are in an enviroment which would cause weak signal (inside, thick walls, metal, etc.).

Hypothetically.
Had a few issues myself with the same stuff. Try another radio via flash tool. Just deselect everything else and just flash baseband, no wipe. Be careful when flashing stuff.

Yes, alternative radio driver should help, if it's not HW issue.
I will try to give the phone on a warranty check ... hopefully they will be able to tell me what's wrong ..
if not, I'll go your way = flashing different ROM with different radio.

thank you for the answer which rom could i install? now i have the rom for italy (IT) that i found here... but i had this problem also with the completely stock device so could it probably be an hardware issue?
You think you have signal issues?
Almost forgot, I had a phone come in once and it had the same issue, ended up only recognising the sim card every now and again, you could try another sim, or even send it back for repair which is what happened with the phone that was brought to me.

so i'm going to send it to warranty, i hope it is an hardware problem otherwise i'll have to sell it, i can't stay witheout signal as soon as i hold it on my hand
losing data signal
I am having the same issue
Any idea?
Should return the phone?
I sent the phone to the warranty, I have also the results of the tests and they are all passed... So I really don't know how to do... If I find a nexus 5 i'll try to change this xperia for that, I can't stay whiteout signal when my old iPhone 4s receive it very well
