So today I sent out a picture message to my wife while my WiFi calling was enabled. (I don't have a good signal at my house so this is the only way I can do this from home without moving around looking for a signal) Every time I tried sending the message I got a "g" pop up on the status bar next to my wifi signal bar. I tried rebooting because it wouldn't send and it still didn't work. I then set it down and ignored it and it finally wend, but maybe about 10 minutes later.
The other issue I just has been happening the last couple of days is the app just shuts down when the screen is sleeping. I set my phone down and come back 20 minutes later and the icon is missing. I go into the app to restart it but is says it's on, but trying to connect and it won't connect until I reboot. Just now I had an error message stating I wasn't connected to the tmobile network and had to sign in (or something like that) I rebooted and everything connected back up.
Anyone else had this happen to??
The whole mms thing is not an issue. it sends mms using your data connection to prevent something but i cant remember what. Take a look at the wifi calling thread i know it was addressed already.

I think your WiFi calling shutdown when the screen went sleep because you may have WiFi set to sleep when the screen shuts off.

Rebooting is all fine and dandy, but then I need to have it reroot itself again. And then to overclock it I have to be at my computer.
After looking at the other thread as the first responder suggested it makes sense that the MMS get sent over data connections, so I guess if I need to send an MMS I need to have a good "cell" signal.
i am having the same problem.
from a fresh boot, wifi calling works. but once I shut the screen off, wifi calling is lost and it will not come back until I reboot again.
i am using CM6.1, and I don't know if this is a problem with CM or just the wifi calling app itself
I have this issue as well, wifi icon will go missing, when you opn the app it says that its on...from what ive been hearing, wifi calling doesnt really work that well anyway.

For some reason my 3g keeps disconnecting. In settings the mobile network option is greyed out, stuck on "turning on". The only thing that fixes it is a reboot.

No one has any idea why this happens?
Is your phone stock?
it seems to just show that when the phone is idle, not updating, sending/receiving, etc. i have no way to prove this, just a theory.

I had that problem when I was running adrylalyne's Vanilla FrankenROM. It's the sole reason why I had to quit running it. It was a seriously annoying once-in-a-while thing at first but once I'd been running it for about 24 hours, it seemed to happen ALL THE TIME and got to the point where sometimes even a reboot wouldn't fix it. I haven't had it on any other ROM, though.
I was running the leaked radio (2.05?) when I had that ROM. Now that I've got 2.15, I've been thinking about giving it another shot.

No, the connection completely goes away. It's not just "I can't see the 3G symbol"... The phone actually has NO data connection and it seems impossible to get it to come back without a reboot.
2.15 radio fixed that for me. Using first leak Rom still.

in order to get rid of this, you'd need to find which file or which portion of that file controls the signal indicator on the phone, and replace it with an older version of that file, from before this "idle" indicator began.
maybe the google holds the answers you seek?

Not an indicator problem. The phone truly has no connection.

Good to know. I think I will try that FrankenROM again, then.
i'm unrooted and on stock OS, just got my incredible yesterday...so far i've noticed that it seems to just stay dormant, whenever i open an app that connects to the network, it automatically lights up the indicator and starts using the data, and it doesn't seem to prevent me from actually sending or receiving data, so i don't know how i would tell if it's actually no connection or just an "idle" indicator. how did you come to that conclusion?

What you see is normal. The 3G (or 1X) indicator only lights when the data connection is being used. The problem here is that there was no data connection. I would attempt to do anything that used the data connection and it would not connect. No email, no internet, no Nav, no nothing. The programs would all open, but could not download anything.
Agreed, that's sort of what I was implying, I was referring to the OP. so the connection issues are Rom based, not related with the gray indicators. Just because its gray doesn't mean you don't have connection. Clarifying for the next person who stumbles across this thread.

To the OP, this happened to me today using Sky Raider Sense 2.5.2. I also had to restart, so it's not only you that has the problem.

What he was talking about being greyed out is when you go into Menu> Settings> Wireless & Networks, the place where you check to turn Mobile networks on and off is greyed out with the text of "Turning on..." below.
well now i feel like a giant ass, lol!

Same thing happened to me over the weekend. I was in a tiny town in Texas that apparently had no 3g and I was unable to do anything that used the data connection. Reboot didn't work, neither did changing the Mobile Directory Number to all zeros when pressing ##program>NAM-General (as was suggested on a different forum which I cannot link to). What sucks is that it's highly unlikely I can duplicate this problem since there is probably good 3g coverage around the verizon store in the city where I live. I called verizon and the person said something about that area not having access to the data network, which I don't believe because when I was screwing with the settings under ##program I managed to get a text message. My wife's Samsung Vibrant (I know, different network) had no 3g but she was still able to access all apps that required the data network.
When my wife's Incredible was stock, this happened to her. It wouldn't connect to 3G. When going into settings and checking it out, "Mobile Network" was all grayed out. After LONG discussions with Verizon Tech Dept, 2 factory resets later, they found the problem to be on their end with the phone being "lost" on their system. They reset something (didn't tell me what) and bingo! her phone had 3G again.
I just had it happen to me. Reboot fixed it, but I'd like to know why its happening so I can tell my friends at VZW to look into it...
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Still happening to me. I told the tech that a bunch of people in the forums were saying it was a problem on their end, something about my phone needing to be removed from and then added back to the data plan, and they told me that they'd look into it. Eventually the 3g came back on its own like it always has when I have this problem, and the next day I got a text from verizon saying the issue had been fixed (which I doubt consisted of anything more than someone having the system send me a text saying the issue had been fixed). I've had this problem when my phone was stock, when I updated to the 2.05 baseband, and now that I've rooted and installed skyraider. Not exactly the experience I anticipated when I left the iphone 3g...
noticed another thing, idk if related...my gmail will "quit" working...meaning, it shows i have new emails inside the app, but they haven't pulled to my phone yet. the refresh button in the app, and the sync now button under accounts don't work, i had to do a nand wipe and restore a file from a day ago. i think it's app related, because it always seemed to happen after i updated some apps in the market, but one of the times (this last time) i didn't update the apps, i deleted them and it still happened. all other data and network connections work fine, only gmail. prolly not related, but thought i'd throw it out there
I looked around and could not find a thread about this.
I have a rooted fascinate with dl30 (froyo). Everything else is running fine.
But with Wifi on, my connection to the internet is fine until I stop using it. I have the wifi setting to never turn off.
But after about 5mins or so of leaving the phone alone my connection to the net seems to be lost. I will get no incoming emails, my connection to gtalk is halted. If I unlock the phone i can not pull up any webpages, gtalk is still disconnected and if i try to send an email it just sits there.
All of this remains that way until I turn wifi off and go to 3G. Then everything works again. If I turn wifi back on right after, everything works fine again and will continue to until I leave the phone alone for 5mins or so.
any thoughts?
If you have a thought but need more info from me feel free to ask.
Am I really the only one with this issue on this forum?
i just started getting this issue today.... i hope there is something that can be done.
I noticed it happening to me also. Very random though, only happens about once a day or less.
Same here.

Did it happen on 2.1? I am partly concerned because I ebayed the phone with 2.1 about 2 weeks ago. rooted, then installed froyo, so I didn't really get to see if it happened on 2.1, or if this is part of froyo. Was also concerned because a friend of mine, Nuance, also did the same thing, and came over to my house and had no wifi issues.
Hi
I can tell that the phone is using wireless due to the speed. Its just a little annoying.
Anyone else have this issue?
Masters stock 2.3.3 deodexed (rooted) with Netarchy 1.2.7 cfs @ 1.2
the same thing it show before and after i root my NS
same here.
with 2.3.1 and now 2.3.3
Yeah it's happened to me. Just toggle WiFi off then toggle it back on.
Haven't had that problem. You should try flashing again. I just heard of that problem in 2.3.2
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Its my understanding that this is as a result of an app which needs to use wireless data specifically from a mobile network so it momentarily turns the mobile data radio on and then turns it off when its done.
i have only google apps and the 3G was on and the wifi in the same time ....
I think this is the issue:

and I have another thing! when i want to start mobile data it just won't start. to solve it I have to reboot my phone!
anybody else getting this?
Nexus S, 2.3.3, gri40, Vodafone Romania!
Sometimes turning on airplane mode and then turning it off again starts the mobile data for me. Give that a shot Bikers.
Are you guys receiving an mms at the same time? On WiFi when receiving a pic message the phone is forced to use 3g data to connect to the carrier server over 3g only to receive the pic. This is the Only time I've ever seen WiFi and 3g at the same time.
This usually happens to me when my wifi is out of range

Up until yesterday I was running 2.3.2 with the XXKB3 radio. I updated to 2.3.3 and got the XXKB1 radio. As soon as I connected to wifi, I started to experience this problem with 3g and wifi showing at the same time. So, I decided to re-upgrade to.the XXKB3 radio and I no longer have the problem.
The instructions on how to upgrade your radio are in the development section. Its definitely worth a shot. Yesterday I was not only losing wifi, but my 3g was going out also and I had to reboot my phone to get my 3g working. That doesn't work for me.

how long do both icons display together? is it only for a few seconds, or do they stay on indefinitely? if only a few seconds, it could be a wifi bug where its disconnecting then reconnecting in the span of a few seconds, so in between the 3G kicks in only to turn back off when wifi reconnects.

It is sporadic. Sometimes it comes on every 30 seconds or so then turns off. Other times, it is on indefinitely..
I read some where that having "supl" in your APN settings under APN Type might be doing it. maybe check that?
hi, sometimes when i look at my phone, usually after being on wifi the phone shows no bars.
sometimes it comes back on in a min, i tried airplane mode but it wouldnt work. so i restarted it and worked fine.
not sure why it happens, does anyone else have this? could it be due to some Wifi calling setting? not sure why phone seems to just cut off.
anyone have any idea why this may be happening?
does it turn off radio for wifi calling somehow or? just random.
I have a similar issue, but not equal. Sometimes, when I try to connect to the network I always do (home), it simply doesn't work. Scanning - disconnected - scanning - disconnect. Only a phone reset fixes this.
Sheep ROM 2.0
AbyssNote Kernel 2.5
I had a similar issue a while ago and sent Mine back to the seller but the seller claimed neither they nor Samsung could find a problem with the phone. Thankfully The seller sent me a replacement which no longer gives me this problem so it may be the handset, though it could also be the setting/Conflicting app. Someone reported here his problem Was solved after adjusting a w ifi regulating app
i have a 3-day old gnote and i started noticing this problem after i have my phone rooted. the wifi icon stays on but there's no internet connection. turning the screen off and waking the phone after a minute solves the problem but its annoying to be losing connection when you're needing it. i'm on stock KKA.

I have a somewhat similar problem. When I am using wifi for somewhat long time, I am unable to connect back to my 3g. Or if I was on 3g connection and I move out of coverage area for a little more than 10 minutes, I can't reconnect to 3g. Only 3g connection has this problem though, everything else works fine.
If I restart the phone, I can reconnect. Setting to airplane mode and resetting doesn't help. Neither does resetting the mobile network operators.
Yes, the problem seems to be software related since there is no actual problem with receiving 3g/phone.
yesterday i drove back 10 hrs and streamed music/radio the entire way with only a few tiny interruptions in reception.
but often still if i just take my phone out of my pocket, the "phone" part will be off and usually turn back on within 1-2 mins.
but this is quite annoying since sometimes il literally be waiting for 1-2 mins to place a call.
my phone is "not" rooted.
Dear All,
I have Nexus 4 device with stock rom and I'm facing the following issue:
When I'm not using the device for few mins and someone sends me notification in whatsapp I'm not getting it. Only when I wake up the device and open the app I'm getting the notification.
Did someone face this issue?
I'm not sure but I think this is some safe mode or something like.
Please help me with that.
Thanks,
Yotam

What will 4.2.2 do with regards to this issue?
Wifi is probably going to sleep. Go to advanced wifi settings and set it to remain always awake.
This happened to me, latest franco kernel version is somewhat fixing it!
I'm using the original kernrl, didn't change it yet?
did someone using Franco kernel and stock rom?
In the mean time I Chaged thr ROM to CM 10.1 , but I want to check it also with STOCK rom.
does someone knows which rom is the original one?
wifi sleeps when display is off, so push notifications are delayed, its a problem with 4.1.2, I currently haven't found a solution and its not my modem, wait for 4.2.2,
when streaming, display must be on to complete transfers
code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40065
A work around, someone pointed out in another thread, is to set wifi deliberately to turn off when phone sleeps and leave mobile data on.. when you get a notification phone will wake and wifi will switch back on to receive notification.
can confim this works, i leave 2g only on.
Check your APN settings cos mine was doing the same thing till I changed the APN settings.

I was thinking that APN should be also an issue. in the mean time I switched to CM 10.1 and this issue dissapear
Is the problem only when you are using mobile data or is it wifi as well. Have you tried it with whatsapp plus.

WhatsApp on the Nexus 4 seems to be a complete and utter disaster. I don't know why but it takes 10-20 seconds to send messages via whatsapp, even when my signal is perfectly full and I could be browsing. On my old S1, it would send them almost instantly, the N4 seems to wait, dilly dally for a little bit then send them when it's happy to. I can't tell if it's a modem issue or a bug in JB but it's getting annoying.
I regularly receive clumps of 4 or 5 messages. They do usually arrive, even when in dormant, but they don't arrive like, one after the other, they just arrive all at once.
Its the standard jb WiFi issue described in Google bug report and happens to everyone.
Whatsapp is fine over 3g if.you have a decent 3g connection. In fact I use whatsapp on 2g and notifications are instant with the screen off.
As a side note, on fauxs latest beta kernel I haven't had the signal bars turn grey.

Can't decide what it is. Internet browsing seems fine on this phone, but WhatsApp is ****ed.
Even further problems today, surely this is to do with the baseband?
