Hi,
Does anyone have this problem?
Sometimes 3G is working fine, then for some reason it stops working even if the 3G is still switched on from the settings, but the 3G in the notification bar disappears...
I try to switch it off and switch it back on again... but doesn't seem to work.
I tried even restarting the phone but it doesn't work as well...
Anyone got this problem?
Thanks
Yes I am getting the same thing! It's very annoying, my 3G/HSDPA etc was all working fine and now I have noticed it's not on at all. My setting is also set to ON. When I open up the internet it tells me this setting is turned off when it isn't.
When you say you tried restarting, do you mean you did a factory reset? I was thinking of trying that...
It would help if you said what country and network you're on. I had big issues with this on T-Mobile on the UK and I found out eventually it was the APN settings. Lots of people are posting almost correct information but getting the user and password wrong.
From the T-Mobile website it states
User: user
Password: tm

I'm from Malta on vodafone... any ideas?

All I'd suggest is finding the APN settings on their website and making sure they're correct. If they are then maybe contact Vodafone and see what they say.

fixed
OK I've fixed it by resetting the APN settings to default.
When I went to the APN settings, the names of the connections had changed, they had a "_off" at the end. The only thing I think may have done this is when the phone goes into 'low power mode' it switches all data off. If I'm right then this is a bug as the phone doesn't change the names back again. Of course it could be something else.

Hi there, I am using a Bell Desire Z on Fido.
The 3G disconnects when GPS activates ... and other times too.
Most often when I use google Maps. But after restarting mobile network, it would keep working for a time.
I though that there might be a bug where the 3G needed to be restarted everytime it encountered a new cell tower but now I am not so sure.
Any ideas what might be causing this problem?

Hmm... I have a G2 and never experience that problem. Well if your not rooted u should factory reset and see if that works... If you are prem-rooted and s-off u should flash a different rom that might work lol... sorry if am not to helpful

Hi yeah I am not rooted and it has been happening since I got my phone.
Could it be the APN settings? But it is not like I can't connect but more like I get kicked off.

Hmm... have you tried factory reseting the phone. Most of the times that fixes the issues on the phone. If that does not work try calling your customer care and tell them what's going on. They will reset your signal and if the issue persist you should get your phone replaced.

Somehow I deleted all APN settings but the APN name mcc and mnc and now it is stable.
Weird because I had just copied the APN settings from my milestone which worked fine.
I had tried that before but it was still unstable but I think I had left the user name and password in.
Thanks for the replies though.
hi all i bought an htc hd2 running cyanogen 7 and for the last 8 hours i cant connect to internet..it shows the h and bars but they are greyed out..its flashed through nand..any help please..thanks

You probably need the right apn settings. Google them for your carrier.

same exact thing has happened to me for the last couple days. it seems to stop working at night around 11pm. I deleted my SMS Popup & Blink notification apps and rebooted and it worked, but then happened again the next night. second night i just had to reboot to get it working again. didnt happen tonight tho, hopefully it was just a passing thing...
u think its just tmobile or my APN settings

i get the data drop too. just random times of the day it decides to have no more data connection.
the only fix i have found is to reboot
I have this issue also. In fact just now my phone tells me I have no service from O2.
My internet reliability can depend on what corner of my desk I leave it on, it's ridiculous.
What I do tend to see a lot is that when there is a H icon my network bars are always grey, whereas when my data drops my network bars go back to normal (green).
I have 4 APN's for O2. I sometimes have to switch between two of them to get results during the day. I can only suggest googling the APN details, removing all other APN's and keeping in mind that the physical location of your phone can have effects on network performance - sometimes within one square meter like mine.
same issue , temp fix is reboot ...
tmous with sd cm7 and 2.15.50

As per my previous post, I just took the MMS settings out of the APN details and i've had flawless connectivity ever since.
It appears I am not able to add the Internet and MMS connectivity settings into one APN. When I was using CM7 (now on unofficial nightlies) I had to switch between APN's to download MMS messages.
Have a look at the APN you're using and make sure it only says "default,supl" at the bottom. Also ensure no details are stored for MMS - especially proxy details.
Just wondering if anyone using the latest Cm7 is having problems regarding the auto network switching from T-Mobile to orange and back,using the cm suggested radio. Thanx

No problems here. Infact, with the latest radio, At home I have switched from a poor T-Mobile reception to a decent "Orange - T-Mobile" one.
What radio u using? Does go back to T-Mobile easily?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I had problems too. Had to stop phone switching and stay on orange..
All ok here (both original radio and as per my sig).
Been using it on CM7 since day one without any issues whatsoever. What exactly are problems you are having?
Regards.
When it switch to orange it takes long time to go back to T-Mobile .
I can be driving and stays on orange until I manually change back to T-Mobile. Or sometimes it need a reboot.
If stay on orange I get no data, just calling.

Have you tried selecting the Data whilst roaming option? Works for me and I get data on "both" networks.
Also, try selecting T-Mobile as the Default network (to help it go back to T-Mobile)
All found under settings menu.
No problems here. I'm on T-Mobile. Sometimes flicks over to 'T-Mobile Orange', but I don't lose data. Make sure you have both 'Data roaming' and 'National data roaming' enabled (Settings>Wireless & network settings>Mobile networks).
Same here, no issues at all but you need to make sure data roaming is allowed, the transition is seamless and to be honest I rarely notice that it's even changed networks

Am on orange myself, and really come to hate the network since tmob and orange merged! Not onlyinternet, but also at times no one can call me. My phone says 3-4 bars, but orange somehow, at times, dont let anyone get thru me.
My complaints went nowhere, and waiting for my contract to finish to leave them!
Ok what i done is select manually either GSM ONLY or Orange - T-Mob. I've realised that manually selecting GSM on both instances (orange or orng-tmob) keep me 'alive' and people can call me...
Got the same issues with stock, several other custom roms/radio. For my case, its orange network that became crap (used to be perfect before, and used to enjoy a strong and steady 'H')...
try them, also call orange EACH AND EVERYTIME you experiencing issues. and also make sure they record ur complaints on their system(am goin to ask for a discount on my line later)!
all the best hope that it helps u ...

funny you should say that, my wifes iPhone on Orange has the same issue, even seems to swap to weak t-mob signal instead of full strength Orange, had to kill the auto selecting network to fix it. Now I'm on t-mobile and find the network share a boon!

all the options are ticked .
stupid question , how do i make the default network?
Bit of an odd one, I installed widgetsoid to allow me to turn off data network,flip screen rotation and wireless. All was ok until yesterday evening. Regardless of what I did I had no data connection at all and still don't.
I have removed widgetsoid completely and still have no normal data. I have ensured data is activated,my network is selected as orange but I still see no 3g or edge...thankfully I'm at home on wireless but as soon as I leave the house I won't be receiving emails etc.
If anyone has experience with this issue then let of know!

Check your APN settings etc you may need to manual remake all your network details .

Hi a bit of history first. I used kies to flash my phone with 2.3.4. (UK based). It work perfectly for a few days. I then need to restart my phone when I did this I lost my data connection.
I tried accessing the APN settings but i get an error message. I tried everything I even flashed Lightning 6.1 (also 2.3.4). and when I reset the phone again the data connection was not working I have to do a complete reboot. I assume it is has something to do with 2.3.4. I am in South Africa on the MTN network can someone help me with this.
I have the same problem and opened a thread on q&A section please look at there.

Thanks I will re-post this there. I did do a search but nothing but this thread came up.
Hey guys, So I recently restored my phone to the factory stock and I noticed that there was bars for signal on my notification bar, but nothing showing up about my data. I tried rebooting and restoring yet again to fix this, but I had no luck. However, I can still make calls and text people using my phone, it's just that the mobile data won't function properly. Is there a way to fix this or am I stuck with only using Wifi for the rest of my time with the phone?
Have you checked your apn? Settings-more networks-mobile networks-access port names. What apn is active?
Your APN settings has got messed up. Search on how to set it correctly and also what to set for your carrier

Thanks guys! Just got it working again by checking the APN of my parent's phone.
