Hello everyone.
Recently, my hero has been randomly loosing signal to my network provider. It seems that if I use the phone, it never looses any signal, but when I unlock the phone after a while, I see that it has no service. If from there I put the phone in airplane mode for a few seconds, and then turn airplane mode off, it generally catches the signal again. Also, if I scan for networks manually, I can see all the networks in my area, but I receive a message saying that my SIM card does not allow this connection.
Also, this has happened throughout a number of ROM's and Radio's, so it cannot be ROM specific.
Has anybody else got any tips or ideas as to why my signal is dropping? I can also post my logcat later today if it will help.
Thanks!
I have this problem .
I can not call or receive call.
Help us please ...
it can be your radio that might be causing the problem?
try updating your PRL
Thanks for the support guys. It turns out that my SIM card was actually kicking the bucket, and so I went into Virgin Mobile, and they replaced it in 5 minutes. So far, no problems...so it seems sorted.
Thanks anyway!
I'm located in Toronto, Canada and recently subscribed to Mobilicity.
I recently got a T-Mobile samsung vibrant and I'm having this problem where if I lose my mobilicity connection (ie in the subway) I have to reboot the phone to get the connection back.
If I don't reboot the phone will not reconnect to mobilicity network.
Is there a network setting I need to do to get it to connect automatically whenver I get disconnected? Or maybe there's a fix for this somewhere?
The vibrant is not rooted and has stock apps right now.

I would suggest turning the radio off ( airplane mode ) and then turning it back on, this should force your phone to reconnect to mobilicity. It would be considerabbly faster and more convienent than rebooting your phone entirely... The fastest way to turn off the radio is to press and hold the power button until the power options menu pops up and hit the airplane mode selection.
Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks for your reply.
I've tried this with mixed results. Sometimes I would be able to connect to mobi's network sometimes it doesn't. If it does connect, it's only for voice and not 3G.
I've also tried manually selecting the network. It takes a minute or so to search networks and then sometimes mobi's network doesn't even appear.
Rebooting it works everytime though so there's something amiss going on here.
I tried a few things:
Coming out of subway (prolonged disconnect): The vibrant gets stuck in "Searching" mode. It does not lock into Mobi's network at even after turning on/off the airplane mode (turns off all wireless). The only way I get connected back is to power off the phone.
Coming out of basement or elevator (intermitent disconnect): I tend to lose my 3G connection when this happens. Power on/off restablishes the 3g connection. I get mixed results with the airplane mode being toggled on/off.
So right now my settings are:
- WCMDA Only in both the Mobile Network settings and the testing menu (*#*#4636#*#*)
- Manual network connection to Mobilicity
Still getting disconnects anybody with other suggestions?
thanks
Does anyone have a solution to this problem? It seems to be only happening with the mobilicty SIm card. SOMEONE HELP!!
I'm having the same problem. Is it a network problem or a phone problem? I'm using T-Mobile Galaxy S Vibrant and Mobilicity. Let me know if you guys have the solution. Thanks.

Looking for input on this as well please.
I have vibrant on mobilicity as well, had this problem on stock JFD, flashed to any froyo roms and didn't have this problem again (currently using macnut R12 + EB stock kernel)
o NICE... its all in the radio... thanx so much... i'm going to install the JK6 custom rom.... hopefully that has the fix as well...
I am actually re locating to Toronto for work so that is good to know.
Out of curisosity, I actually just purcahsed my phone and I am unlocking it at this moment. Do you know if you have to have a sim card inside the phone while inlocking? Or just after to get the key? Thanks!! I see to be having problem running the script, so I was just wondering.
Hi, I am using the ROM Simple V3(AllVariants) in my D803. Unfortunately I can't turn off 3G or 4G network. I only can turn on airplane mode, than disconnect the 3G or 4G network. Can anyone give an idea to me, how to fix it? thank you.
I have suffered from this problem for a while now. When I am on wifi at home or elsewhere and then go out of range and the phone should flip back to a 3g/4g signal all i get is an exclamation mark next to the signal bars. I then have to carry out a reboot to enable use of 3g
This happens about 80 percent of the time
Anyone else seen this?
I feel the same. I fix it with a tasker profile. When I lost wifi signal Airplane mode active for 5 seconds and then switches off. Since turning it on and off airplane mode reconnects the 3g.
Sorry for my english.

Hi
I have had my Z1 for 2 weeks and am experiencing the same problem. My usage of the phone requires that I switch between WiFi and either of the 2 SIM cards for data on a very regular basis. The Mobile data connection does not activate when coming off WiFi and I am forced to mess around switching the phone off and on etc in order to reactivate the Mobile data.
a) Is there a quick work-around to overcome this issue ... & ...
b) Will the OTA CM13 udate in March overcome this?
Thanks for your time in shining any light on this problem.
I'm playing with tasker trying to create profiles for things without much success. Could you please give me some help on setting up the profile for this?
Thankyou
I have the same problem. I usuallt swithc from 3g to 2g and then to 3g again, and the signal comes immediately
Every one got that problem . Y can try other flyme 4.5.4.3 (eng only) or zui . Modem works perfectly (except hotspot+4g)
On my K3 Note, I can't pick preferred network mode on ANY rom/firmware.
I've tried everything, but it always sets the default preference which is 4G>3G>2G.
What I need though is permanent 2G and I can't set it this way. (4G signal is weak on my operator and then it keeps switching between 4G and 2G over and over)
Is there any way to entirely disable or block 4G on a phone so it will never set that mode again?
Any help would be appreciated!
Any help guys? No one knows what could be the issue?
I tried using the *#*#4636#*#* code and set the "GSM Only" but it still doesn't work.
Is anyone else having the same issue?
Edit:
Also what I've noticed is that while using CyanogenMod (atm), it stays on 2G until I turn the screen off. Then it goes back to 4G.
After turning the screen back on it then goes back to 2G again.
same problem here when dialling number it said invalid MMI code and when switching to 4g the other network appear no signal.. hope someone here have solution. i try several roms but same problem issue.
Well after a lot of fiddling, it seems it works on the stock firmware, but the mobile operator as himself has quite troubling network.
But I think we are slowly coming to a conclusion..
