I have an AT&T Atrix that I got unlocked. The only problem I have with it is that everytime that I hang up a phone call, it loses signal for about 25 seconds then the signal bars come back on. Does anyone else have this problem? At first I thought it was the phone, but I tried my friends AT&T sim card and it worked fine. When I use it with T-Mobile, the internet connection is on EDGE, which is fine with me, since the web browsing is actually fast on it. But everytime after I hang up on a phone call, I lose the signal. I really like the phone, but stuck on what to do. I had hard resetted it already, and same thing, it still loses signal after hanging up.

My MDA lost its signal and it can't seem to reacquire it. Is there anything I need to do? I had this problem before and it sometimes comeback after a soft reset but I have been doing that for the last 15 minutes and it is still out of service. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Do other phones on the same service work? One day i thought my phone was broken too. I kept losing signal. then i went to work and it worked fine. Turned out there was a problem with the tower by my house.
No it is not the tower. I experienced this problem a few times already. It would lose signal and then it would take it a long time for it to reacquire/register with Tmobile.
Sometimes it takes a 1 minute and sometimes it seems to never (i waited for 15 minutes and then I do a soft reset) come back.
I'm not sure if this has happened to TMo customers, but I know Cingular customers have experienced fried SIM cards. I've personally experienced this and had to get a new one from a Cingular store. Thankfully it was free. I experienced the same symptoms. My phone would never acquire signal, even after a hard reset. If you can, try your SIM in another phone, or better yet, try a different SIM in your MDA. Good luck.
I'm in Estonia. Phone is N4 16GB stock 4.2.2, no mods/no root.
Have an issue with gsm radio.
When phone is active, then i have signal, I am able to call out and receive calls, BTW, calls don't drop. When left untouched for approx 10minutes it is cut from carrier. It does show the coverage bars, but when called in, then states as out of coverage. When trying to place call it hangs in dialing display. When trying to end the stuck call, it hangs on ending call display. Have tried different SIMs from different carriers, the problem remains. Only cure so far is to reboot, then i get next 10 minutes of service. Have restored to factory settings couple of times, tried without applying Google account. No luck. F***!
What to do? Has anyone faced similar issue?
Rolled baseband M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.48 back to M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.27, got longer usage time, radio still freezes
I get weird data loss too with 48, never calls though. I too prefer 27 as a result and that just works for me.
With 27 however your autofocus wont work anymore (camera) but since I don't use it that much guess that's not a biggie (touch to focus still works however).
Hey yall, Recently got my new s5 from t-mobile. SM-G900T. i love this phone, but i have one issue that is very very annoying. At complete random it will say 4g or 4g lte <depending on where im at in my town>. i will show almost full bars but completely loose cell and data reception. unable to load web pages, and unable to make calls. it normally takes a power off let sit and turn on to fix. but that can last anywhere from 5 minutes to 3 days.. stayed in a hotel with Full lte. my S4 worked perfectly in the exact same spot. my S5 constantly droped out and would not load anything or call anyone untill i reset. all apps are the same thats on my s4. wifi seems to work when the phone network drops.. Has anyone else experienced this? its highly annoying and irritating. no error messages other then <you are not online> even tho my lte says full signal. <put my sim in my s4 to see it work perfectly in same area>
I need help this is driving me insane!
I've been running Dynamic Kat Rom for about 6 months or so now. Everything was working fine then all of a sudden a week or two ago I noticed my mobile data is not enabling at all.
I can only connect on Wifi and only receive SMS.
I've tried
- Messing will all the data/network settings
- Turning Mobile Data on and off -- no effect
- Toggling Airplane Mode on and off as suggested in some places
- Wiping everything but Data and reflashing latest ROM
- Reseating the SIM card
- several other things I forgot..
I do see the carrier information in the top left (AT&T) and I am getting signal bars.. but not indicator for 4G/LTE/etc
I've been messing with this for a week now and it's driving me insane.. I can't get a connection anywhere unless I'm on Wifi.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm not super phone savvy, but willing to try any suggestions anyone may have.
Hmmm.. weird.
So I called AT&T and asked them about it.. figuring it could possibly be a carrier issue.
They told me to try things I had already done 100 times.. turn the phone off and on.. turn wifi off... etc.
I turned Wifi off... (which I had done 50,000 times before) and 4G popped up.
I guess they did something. So.. guess it's resolved.
Problem has returned.. same issue. I will have 4G signal for hours and then all of a sudden it will drop completely and I can't get a data signal no matter what I do.
I see AT&T in the corner and have signal bars, so I AM getting some kind of signal.. but no data connection whatsoever.
It seems completely random and intermittent.. I can have data signal for days with no issues then I will lose it for days.
Restarting the phone 5-20 times sometimes fixes it.. but that's about it. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?
Bad signal / carrier issue?
Call them and report a fault in your area?
I have called them multiple times, they will reset the signal.. sometimes it will come back right away, sometimes it wont.
And this happens regardless of where I am. I know for a fact where I am right now has a great signal strength. I get 4-5 bars on average. But this also happens at home as well about 20 miles away, which also has a good signal, or anywhere I go really it can happen. This isn't in the middle of nowhere either, it's smack in the middle of SoCal (LA/OC)
I'm beginning to think it may be a SIM card issue or a hardware issue with the phone. I'm going to try asking them to send me a new SIM card.
Another thing I will notice is when I have a working 4G LTE connection, and I'm on Wifi... it will sometimes CONSTANTLY switch back and forth between wifi and 4G like every 10 seconds, even when I have full signal strength on Wifi and 4G.
Disable Smart Network Switching in WiFi settings
it's nothing but a buggy headache, disabling might fix most of your problems, almost certainly the constant switching back and forth
Yeah forgot to mention I have disabled that. It's disabled now. It solves the constant switching back and forth (when I actually have a data connection), but that's kind of a separate issue as the losing data connection.
Looking for a little advice/assistance please.
Have flashed RC 5 ROM onto my Jiayu S3. All is looking good. WIFI, Bluetooth and SMS working fine. When I try and make a call and press send the signal indicator goes from medium signal to nothing with a cross and the call does not go thru. When you try and call the phone you get message that it is turned off or out of range. The signal indicator eventually comes back to showing medium signal again. It also seems to jump between 3G and 4G a lot. Every now and again it will work but takes a while from pressing send until it starts to ring. My IMEI numbers are correct. The SIM works perfect in my other phone which is a stock Samsung.
This problem happens in either SIM slot.
Hope someone can help. Tks Ken
