Data connection drops - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

Hey all,
Anybody else having this issue?
I have it on the 4a as well..
It's a suddenly loss of data connection while the status bar icons don't give any hint that there's something wrong.
And it happens on mobile and wi-fi.
Apps just suddenly report that I'm offline, i can just put airplane mode on and immediately off again and everything is fine again.

It happens to me with every phone inside my house when I go from the living room to the kitchen..
Probably it has something to do with the walls, I know the kitchen was build much later than the rest of the house..

Does anyone know the significance of greyed out network icons?

I upgraded to R3A last week and so far everything's gone smoothly.
The only thing that's bugging me is that the network icon (H) spends most of its time greyed out (see screenshot). I only ever saw it in that state briefly in previous firmware.
It doesn't seem to affect connection or call quality. It's not indicative of a bad signal, as it'll still go back to 2.5G when 3G is lacking. The resulting G will usually be grey as well.
Presumably it means something's less than optimal, but I can't find any info about it anywhere.
Clues anybody?
Are you sure you are able to connect to a data connection, for web browsing etc? Because the last time this happened to me, i was not able to connect, and had to do a hard reset to get it fixed.

Data connection works fine. There appears to be no issue with functionality of anything.
The set of "custom" status icons (colored ones) doesn't contain icon for HSDPA (or something like this, dataconnection available in you location) so it is shown as standard icon (only black&white). I bet if you have only EDGE or GPRS available, there will be the same icon as the others are.
it should mean that data connection is unavailable at the moment (because it can get back in a later time) or something is wrong with your data connection (that is why we have sometimes to reset the phone to make it work back).
Guys,
I have a Xperia for almost one month, and last night it suddenly stopped to be connected with the network. I tried to connect manually, and it worked, but the calls still couldn't be done! One hour later, the same situation started again and my phone can not connect to the network.
I don't know what to do anymore, I have already hard reset the phone, and nothing happened!!
Help me!

I get exactly the same thing, running Jacks latest lite-ROM, based on the R3A. Connection icons are greyed out, but I still have an excellent data connection.
What's more is that after a fairly long call, the phone usually looks like it's in flight mode. However, if I try calling myself from my second phone it works just fine, and I can recieve sms-es. But, I cannot send texts or call out, since the phone thinks it's cell-module is turned off. This always corrects itself after a soft reset, and usually passes by itself after about ten minutes. But the connection icons stay greyed out.
If I try to turn the phone-module back on, nothing happens.
Weird, innit?

[Q] Streak7's bug???

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do any other Streak 7 owners have this problem also?
To reproduce the problem:
Run from an area with good signal coverage (home/office)
into Subway (NYC Subway) where you find no signal.
Inside the subway, when you turn on the screen (as many people will do to kill time), the data connection will of course, finds no signal.
Then when you come out of subway again, in an open area where signals are all good, Streak 7 cannot establish a proper data connection while showing perfect full bar signal strength..
Only restart can restore the data connection. Turning on/off airplane mode wont help....
Is it just my configuration or a bug in streak 7?
I go from the street level to the red line subway in chicago but i lose 3g and hop onto 2g. I lose signal a few times until i get back in the elevated tracks and gain 3g. Not sure if it helps you but i don't have a problem with data connection in that situation. Granted, data is mostly worthless when the train is moving between stations.
Thanks so much!
I am continuing monitoring what combination will create problem.
Believe or not I have observed 3 times such issues witin the past 7 days... Hopefully they were only due to some apps, not the system defects.
sighs...
Right at the moment when I decided to keep and love this streak 7, this bug came to life again...
Today I used the streak 7 in NYC subway, and the signal bar, of course, displayed "4 grey bars with a red cross" which means no signal.
And when I get back home, it STILL DISPLAY THE SAME THING. that is after coming out of subway for 10 mins +.
Then I switched on airplane mode and switch off again, the signal bar display is
full signal, but without the 3G/4G sign , and I tried apps, all reporting no data connection.
Only solution is to restart it.
Can I figure it somewhere in kernel or software apps?
If not, I may really need to return it with 15 days of purchase =(
Similar situation happened today. My Streak showed 4g signal with full bars, tried to open a app it told me i had no internet connection. Once i closed the app the 4g signal flashed then everything was up and running.
Just wanted to let you guys know that I have had a similar issue with my Droid Incredible. If it fails to get a data signal while attempting a background sync, it will actually restart. My solution has been to put the DInc in airplane mode before I enter the subway, and then remove airplane mode when I leave. Not real a big issue, since it takes about 2 seconds to go into airplane mode (& out of it).

Thanks!
This problem barely happens to me now.
I just want to make sure it is not a hardware problem. As long as there is a "soft" solution to it, I am fine. =)

[Q] P970 WIFI lost connection and does not reconnect

Hi there everybody,
a few days ago my P970 started to go crazy a bit. It suddenly lost Wifi connection and won't reconnect. The Wifi symbol in the status bar looks like it is connecting, but nothing happens. Additionally, under the wifi settings, the on-off switch of the wifi is light grey (greyed out) and does not react anymore on my input.
As I could not find any further information on this topic, I decided to do a factory reset followed by a reflash of the V30B (Europe open; Android 4.0.4) and another factory reset as well as format of the SD-card. After that I did not encounter any problems until I finally wanted to customize my phone again with apps etc.
Last night again I lost the connection to Wifi and just decided to see what will happen. Until now (16 hours later) the Wifi icon is still kind of showing a connection attempt and is flashing non-stop and under settings the wifi-switch is still grey.
Anyone got an idea what could be wrong with my phone? Hardware or Software problem? If I leave Wifi switched off, there is no problem with the phone, but it sucks if one cannot use the wifi...

Well maybe think about, what MODs (like PimpMyROM) and apps you installed. Maybe one of them causes the strange behaviour... If you say it works, till you start to customize it, it probably is a problem with any customization...

Make sure something will trigger Wi-Fi AP. If yes, Wi-Fi will not turn on, and the button is greyed out.
Excuse my bad English.

Connected symbol (to 3G) but no data transfer

I have been having this issue for a bit now, it hasnt been like this always but only recently.
I also noticed that there was another user who was complaining of the same issue on a KK rom as well.
I have had this issue on Dirty Unicorns and Spirit Rom
I am going to give SlimSaber a try and see if it persists on that as well.
I know it could be network issue but I have never had this problem until recently and I did not change residence etc.
It shows connected in the status bar but there is no is absolutely no data transfer till i turn it on and off. And sometimes even that doesn't work and I have to turn of airplane mode. And this happens every 10 mins so I am sure it is no some sort of connection time-out issue
APN settings seem to be fine and such and I am out of ideas.
Could it be a ROM issue? Any suggestions as to what could help?
I am sorry for the horrible typos!
Tried slimsaber but issue persists
Updated the modem to the one for my country and it might help? idk

Oxygen OS Open Beta 17 - Constant WiFi dropout

So I've had OOS OB17 installed since it's release a few days ago and I've noticed that my WiFi signal keeps dropping every so often. This becomes really noticeable as when it drops the WiFi signal, the whole phone stutters/pauses for half a second to then connect to mobile data, then almost instantly reconnect to the same WiFi network.
This isn't a WiFi router problem as this happens at home, my work and the gym.
Does anyone else experience anything like this?

The same here. If seems like WiFi goes to sleep from time to time.
this has to be reported to oneplus.. and make sure you include logs.. so that they will see the basis of the report.. i think they have that feedback form for this
