Before I say anything, I would like to thank the devs to make it possible for us to have android on our phones

as you might know, you too might have a network issue with your phone. Such as your network bar keeps dropping etc.
This is what I want from you guys:
I was wondering if anyone can confirm network drop on your phone
If they experienced network drop what have you done to fix/sustain it.
If you are having a different problem related to network please tell us
Thank You
(please no rude or pointless comments, as this could help other users ... and please stay on topic)
every network issue is always tie to the exact ROM/Kernel so I don't see the point to discuss is somewhere else than in threads for related ROMs

Hey i have a 32B UK Vodafone Magic running Cyanogens 4.0.4 stable rom and have had the magic for about a month now.
For some reason my phone randomly loses connection - both 3G and 2G, the drop down notification will just say "No Service" and will only usually restore if i turn on- and off airplane mode.
There are also often times where ill be browsing the internet or the market and while it'll tell me i have 3G/2G, it wont actually "connect" and download/upload data e.g. the market will often tell me it has no connection and web pages will randomly not load, getting the "webpage cannot be found"-like error for no reason. wouldnt be such a bother but it seems to be a daily occurance that spoils an otherwise amazing device.
Is this a common problem? does anyone know how i can solve this if a solution is available (i thoguht it may be to upgrade the radio but i dont know how and ive heard its possible "brick-territory")
hope you guys can help
Hi there, this is getting to be a well known issue on the Vodafone technical forums.
http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=25796&st=0&start=0
have you read this and posted there?
Would be good from some feedback on here too from "the experts"
I'm having the same problems with my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556843
So far, turning off 3G has stopped it, but that's not really an acceptable long-term solution...
as you say, disabling 3g is not a solution to the problem encountered considering the device and its expected use, its connectivity should at least e stable.
i did not know about the thread on the vodafone forum and read through all of the posts, there didnt seem to be any strict correlation between the other guys devices and the problem itself, some had diff radios, some likely had flashed roms (but theyre not exactly going to mention that on a voda forum).
thanks for the help regardless, i think im going to do some testing of custom ROMs and some of the radios/SPLs to see if one of them may fix it. though again i dont think its a probplem that can be fixed from a ROM/android update alone
I've been having this issue too, i've gone through multiple roms in search of a fix, none of them solved it though. . .
Are you guys having any other issues coupled with this? My phone also won't autosync email anymore. No notifications, then i'll check manually it will find a slew of emails from earlier in the day. It's set to check every 5 minutes, but alas.
same here with a vodafone magic. I have this prob not only with 3g even with wifi. Turning wifi/3g on/off solves this issue. Its annoying though...
Anyone know what the problem is? I am not very knowledgeable when coming to phone and how they function. I am thinking, could it be the radio setting? I am in the USA, using tmobile network. I get signal and I can call text. If my phone are on standby for not being use, I get the X signal for no network connection and after switching the phone back on.
I am located in Socal in the Orange County, any one with the fix for this please let me know. I didn't have this many drop network with other build, but I love how fast this Super Ram build is. Please help if you can. Thank you!

I'm assuming you're using Darkstone's build, check his post; there is a complete work-up and description and fixes for problems. Remember, it's still a work in progress and there will be problems. His forum is just for that. The Devs have put a warning on his thread to basically keep it clean and search before posting repeat questions.

"Bugs Remaining:
- Notification LED's only blink once
- SetCPU unable to change CPU speed (not that I think that theres much need to do this anyway)
- Possible PPP data issues for some people"

Since you and I are on the same network and area, check your build.prop settings for DNS, check your APN and I have mine set to HSP...Check my thread for links and instructions.
Thank, slightly confuse thought. I don't use data service so I don't know if my network or cell phone reception have anything to do with PPP. If it does I will give it a shot and try to fix it. Everywhere I go have Wifi and it work wonders, just my cell reception for tmobile are going up and down at time, and every couple min it would lose everything. Sometime going to network and trying to reconnect it would give me some bar and sometime it doesn't. Very annoying but please verified if PPP will fix it. Seem more like data (3g) issue more than reception issue. I don't know if both are the same thing or not. I will give it a shot if it will fix my reception for signal because I don't want to mess anything up.
Thanks for the lead and heads up.
hi guys,
i having this problem recently (refer screenshot). i suspect is a radio problem. anyone experience this?
i am using htc magic/sapphire 32A:
-official NR 6.35.07.29
-official android 1.5,
-official kernel 2.6.27
-build number 3.03.728.4
-with senseUI
the network gets disconnected frequently (~5 times a day), but simcard still can be detected. recently simcard not detected but network signal is still there! I can even make/received phone calls - weird!!
i contacted htc and they would like to know how many ppl have this problem. If this is common problem, we will have a chance to get new rom from them
i have troubleshooted myself and pretty sure this is not hardware problem.
if you guys have similar problem, mind to share how you fix it? and if the problem still exists?
I've had a lot of network drops with any new radio (I've tried them all), so i went back to the old one.
If I'm using the new radio, and the signal disappears I have to reboot the phone, sometimes even five times, to get the signal again. It just says "Your sim card does not allow a connection to this network" or something like that, but I choose my operator...
Different providers/networks use different radios. It's best to stick with the radio that the phone was originally working on.
I tried going OR on Rogers/Fido (Canada) and I experienced exactly what you have. I went back to NR.
That's not entirely true. I was experiencing that even with the new radio for EU, and I'm not experiencing any problems with the old EU radio...
with NR i used it about a year without problem & it starts getting this problem about 2 months ago. I even reboot phone, factory reset, re-insert SIM, reflash original official rom (NR) from RUU. still the same.
from my attached image, it seems that the radio signal recovered is not being notified to the android framework or the senseUI.
it seems to me the radio / andriod getting buggy now. not sure anyone else experience this? or maybe the radio has its lifespan
i dunno why they released the NR and we keep getting unstable network signal. isn't this has improvement over the OR? and now NR use about a year, no update from them

Those in Development also have access to General. Development is for those that make things such as hacks, roms, kernels, etc.
A unique radio problem is not considered Development even for the purpose of troubleshooting. You can keep this in General, I can merge it with a specific thread for whatever rom you are using or I can merge it with a thread for your specific radio version... but starting a thread in Development will not happen unless YOU are going to find a fix for this and others that experience this issue. But as far as I can tell... it is too few to deserve an actual thread in Development at this time.

I read your first post on the mytouch section and I couldn't stop laughing the whole time I was reading it, but apparently the people that need to read it have not done so

Just imagine how frustrating it is for me.
Need your help
would you pls tell me which recommended Radio for LeeDroid Rom V3.3.3 for HTC Desire HD
Ok I'm a little bit unsure on whether to post this or not. I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this so please don't tar and feather me if it's not. Ok... with that out of the way, has anyone else here heard of a security threat in the Android OS prior to 2.3.3? Please see below link for a description.

Is this something that we need to be concerned about? If so, what is a temporary fix, if any. Thanks!
dont connect to unsecure wifi networks. problem solved. all "issues" that have ever been reported for android can be fixed by people simply not doing stupid things. be smart. dont sideload or download apps that you know you shouldnt install like "superduper babez 2012!," dont install legit apps downloaded from strange places, dont connect to unsecured wifi... all common sense stuff. this isnt aimed at you, im just sayin, people in general.
Hi all, this is my first post or thread, i came here cause i heard from ppl this is best site for asking questions about cell phones, i started reading allot this forum and wow did i enter the other world i really like and wanna participate in.
Srry for little intro and lets get back to topic. So i got my first "normal" android and got trouble with it. I am using Samsung galaxy s5 g900F (european) factory unlocked and T-mobile as carrier with 4.4.2 kitkat. I have a big problem with a data connection that keeps going off every 30sec to 5 min if i use option to search and auttoconnect on LTE/WCDMA/GSM option. I read forum but no1 is mentioning this model as problematic 1 so now i post thread about.
Does any1 know what could be problem and how to solve it. Sometimes my data connection comes back and sometimes it doesnt and i have to switch type of network to get back again online. All other options that don't include LTE auttoconnect work just fine, i tried to get another SIM from carrier but same problem, i tried to get another Phone since i work in hardware firm and still same problem on another device, both were same models.
I still didn't put any ROMs but i really consider doing it maybe l8r on, it is stock version.
Pls be genttle since this is first time i post, maybe i did it on wrong place but i did read rules and everything and i think i did it on right place.
Ty in advance.
I did have a slightly similar problem years ago - when in roaming my phone could not connect to anything. What helped was a change of simcard for a new model - after that all was good.
Since you did try your SIM on a different phone (same 900F?) I would advise you to try: first on a completely different brand and phone model - if you can.
If this does not solve your problem do shake your service provider a bit - they could have supplied you with two faulty SIM cards in a row - that can happen. Otherwise - maybe there is a stupid limitation in your service plan which is causing this. There is no - to my knowledge - ready answer to the problem you have described.
Best of luck and if you do solve it come back and post - it will be very useful to lots of people for sure
Cheers!
Too many variables. You haven't observed enough of a pattern yet or tried enough things to narrow it down a bit. It could just as easily be carrier side issues as a bug in the firmware not negotiating a new connection if the LTE signal is lost.
A number of people were having data disconnect issues and that was addressed in the 4.4.3 /4.4.4 update. So that is one option to consider. And you could open a support ticket with your carrier. That is hit and miss as to results, but sometimes tickets actually resolve issues.
There are also a number of apps that may mitigate or possibly even solve your issue. Have a look at 4G LTE Switch and LTE Discovery.
.
Will try it today. Thanks for the help. Really appreciate it.
