I am and have not had a single drop out on 1.6 or 2.1

I get them all the time and everywhere. Very annoying when the data drops out too.
my signal jumps from 5 to 1 to nothing while I'm .just sat at my desk. It does.it at.home too.

I was on a 2 hour conference call to North America in a weak signal spot (in the countryside in the UK) on 2.1 and didn't have a problem.

Same Problem
I have the same drop out problem on my 1.6 O2 Streak. It goes from 5 bars to nothing without any intimation!
Also, it takes long to connect calls. Is there any improvement in connection time in 2.1?

US Streak flashed to 2.1
No dropouts or delays.

Had 24/7 drop outs with 1.6.
Haven't had a single drop out since going to 2.1...but have had many worse issues lol

Wireless tether

Does anyone else have a problem where wireless tether seems to cause the network connection to become intermittent and sometimes a page won't load?

mines worked perfectly so far, and that's in an area with subpar reception too.
Ive got the latest version of wireless tether for the inc too. I know its not a signal problem, I have a Verizon tower 2 miles from my house and get great 3g reception indoors.

The new versions wifi has problems with me. The version that comes with the 10 minute root video/package, seems to work. I'm having a problem at the moment because I upgraded on accident with a new rom. In the process of trying to fix that.

O2 dropout

I keep getting short network dropouts on o2 with the srreak. This is my second streak so its not an isolated case. Amyone else experienced this?

sometimes
There is an app called No Signal Alert which notifys you when you lose signal. When I use that it logs drops, but all drops are for no more that a second and I have never dropped a call.
btw This is also a good app for monitoring yoou signal strength (http://android.modaco.com/content/dell-streak-streak-modaco-com/311813/mobile-signal-widget/)
Note: There is currently an issue with K9 email events causing the Streak to drop network connection of an instant. So I am unsure what is causing mine.
Thanks man that would make sense as i am using k9. Hopefully it will be addressed with the 2.2 update

Any app killer can be a good cause of this as sometime they kill the core process
worth looking into it
Welcome to o2, not quite the at&t of the uk but not far off

Are o2 really that bad? Been with orange for 3 years never had any problems. It must be the network as im not using an app killer

3g problems

Is this just me or are other people experiencing problems with 3g randomly dropping. Ill be using the internet and next thing I know I get no service even though I'm sat in same place....

That is a common occurence, currently I use my iphone sim and this happens a fair bit. I believe its more of a software issue hope this will be resolved when 2.1 comes out.

HSDPA only became available with the 2.1 upgrade, if you're still on 1.6 that will be why you don't get it.
Ah right ta. . Come on dell want 2.1 (that doesnt screw up our phones)

Seems OK to me, 3G speeds are up to 384KB/s and you are over that by far almost 3Mbit/s so you are getting HSPA, if you run on 1.6 you won't see the H, at least on my streak running 2.1 it shows the H when there is any network activity. And for the looks of it looks like you are running on HSPA category 3.. not bad at all. If it is a category 3 it should top at somewhere around 5Mbit in optimal conditions.
That will do me !

Not really sure what your in for. I have my nexus on boost and have no problems and I use google voice for my main number...i wish you luck.
Good luck, I feared that your problem would of effected me since i barely get 1 bar in my house but luckily, I've had no call problems and actually have quite good call quality but not so much 3G speeds. Have you tried a different NS4G?

Calls were fine when they got through,half the time I would just get vm. But the data was terrible. Inexcusable.

I have no signal issues or data speed problems. I regularly use Netflix over 3g with no buffering or other problems. In fact at work where my EVO had problems staying on 3g my Nexus stays connected and at a stable signal rate. I don't get a lot of calls but when I do they seem to come through fine.
Sorry to hear the you're having issues. Not sure that it's the phone though and not just network problems in your area.
