This application is only for users affected by the "No service / Limited connectivity" problem.
If your phone drops the network connection and the only solution is to toggle the airplane mode on/off or reboot your phone to restore the signal then you can try this.
The application monitors (listens) for a "Limited connectivity" situation then switches the airplane mode to ON for 2 seconds. The switch is delayed by 10 seconds to allow the phone to recover itself (if possible).
The UI is basic, showing the last 20 or so lines of log (screenshot attached).
The service starts automatically at boot or when invoked from the UI and it only runs when notified by the Android OS that the phone lost the connectivity to the network.

Something strange since my upgrade to 1.66 - when the phone's in standby it appears to be establishing an active 3G connection, and when i wake (unlock) the phone, you can watch as it reconnects to the current wifi connection again. Is this some sort of energy saving strategy, which could theoretically run your 3G bill up? (dont matter to me as mine is unlimited, but not all are).
Anyone else notice/know about this?
By default, Wifi is disabled during standby to save power. So if a program requests an internet connection, for example outlook if you configured it to check mail automatically, the phone will connect the data connection.
You can search for "wifinostandby" to find a fix that disables auto wifi power off.
But beware that current consumption with wifi on is substantially higher than when it's off, by 10 times (current draw is about 50mA vs 5 for "true" standby), meaning you get at best 30h standby life if doing nothing else.
Also, dont forget that the top bar shows you the connetion being offered by your network, it doesn't necessarily mean it's doing anything. If you disable the wifif you see the same 3g icon regardless of what data is doing. So as said above, you go to standby, wifi is disabled so the wifi icon vanishes, then if you have your phone in 3g mode (personally mine stays in gsm mode, so i see an E not a H) when you wake it up it will display the H before the wifi kicks in and the icon changes back to wifi again.
It happened 4 times on my Note 3 in the last 10 days. I'm home or at work under wifi. Go out and try to use mobile data and I get an error message that I have no connection. Yet my LTE signal shows 50% and above in signal strength. I tried to turn on airplane mode to turn it off to force my phone to latch onto the closest cell tower and it's still doesn't fix the issue. If it happens while I try to upload some files, I check my email or try to browse the web and it confirms that I have no working connection to the web. I end up rebooting my phone and it fixes the issue. It's as if the phone is still looking for my wifi connection and "forgets" to switch to cellular connection once I leave the building. I know there is a setting under wifi that says to auto switch between wifi and mobile network but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
Hey Guys,
on Thursday I installed LineageOS 14.1 nightly on my Moto X Play.
Now I think I only enable to improve the Rom by communicating errors in it.
1. Yesterday I no more got notifications automatically. After a reboot of the device everything was okay and messages became received automatically and I was notified automatically again.
2. Today I noticed that if I use the flight mode and end it after a while it no more connects to mobile data. If I search for mobile network in settings the device finds network, but it only connects to telephone network. Only after a reboot the device logs in to mobile data. If I only use flight mode for some seconds the issue does not occur.
I wish you all a nice weekend and greetings from Germany
Hi,
I've a strange issue, when I am in a place without any network for a while (say 1 hour), when I come back in a zone with a network, my phone stays disconnected with emergency calls only, I have to reboot my phone to get a network again. I've tried to put it on airplane mode and put it again in a normal mode but it doesn't work.
Any clues ?
Thanks
I have strange issue,
- Issue started after updating phone to 6.0.1, phone cannot see any wifi network.
- When I turn Airplane mode on, wifi works normally, my wifi and neighbors' are all being seen and connected to normally
- When I turn Airplane mode off, and phone connect to mobile network, the phone stops seeing any wifi network.
- I am in Syria, there is a possibility this is new thing in new softwares to not work properly when phone detects Syrian mobile network, something to do with sanctions and politics, just not sure of it, and hope not.
Tried following:
- Reset device
- some dialer codes
- changing router channel
- my phone has no advanced options for wifi
- Reverting back to old software, all works normally, but phone keeps asking to be updated, and not really convenient to have to stay with old release
My information
- Smartphone: Samsung Galaxy XCover 3
- Software: 6.0.1 27 Oct 2017 update
- Phone not rooted
