Well i keep loosing singnal on my HD2:
Spec:
NAND HD2 CoreDroid HD V1.6 ANDROID 2.2.1
RADIO: 15.40.50.07U_2.12.50.02_2
NETWORK: ERA *POLAND*
Signal Strenght: -89dBm 14 asu UMTS
I can loose singnal for about 30 minutes and it wont find anything. Then obviously i get 0 dBm. I have had the newest radio but i have changed to that to see if it solves the problem, but it hasnt. So im kindly asking You guys for help and Your opinions.
Thanks
Try if switching to 2G networks only in the settings solves your problem, this did the trick for me.
I only switch it off for fast 3G downloading, solves the missed call issues for me too.

With all tho respect i havnt got an option USE ONLY 2G Networks. I have Downlaoded widget APN ON/OFF. It has switched it off Thanks
For me when I was in Poland radio 2.14 or 2.15 solved the problem.
I am now using 2.14, I can see that you are using 2.12 I would change that to be honest and install other radio, just experiment a little and see which one is best for you

True but i'm unsure if its a network related problem or android because i flashed so many roms with different radio's always experiencing the same data conection drop problem when 3G is on.
So i just flashed back to the stock nexus build to stay.
I wish i could use the full potential of my device too...
(The menu to switch on only 2G network is only available on stock android rom, not on sense roms etc as they use their own menu styles)

Im now definitely sure that its not a hardware related problem as i tried 4 different EU HD2's and they all had the same problem after flashing android.
Now it's only to find out if it's a radio - android compatibility problem or just a flaw in android itself.
Ok,, now again for the 10th time , i started over from task29 , up to installing radio 2.15.50.14,, then boyppc v25 rom,,, and i guess this worked for me, i still have the connection dropping but less often than it used to be. it happens maybe once a day.
isn't there a developer who can help us find out what is the problem and develop a solution for us???

After doing a Hard Flash for the first time from 1.43 to 148 and rebooting my HD2. Within several minutes my reception speed would change from 3G to GPRS and back again while on the go, this has never happen before and was wondering is there a way to have consistent 3G speed/reception or was there a fault during my flash?
Any suggestions or help would most helpful.

Did you flash with SSPL / Gold card or with the HDSPL in-tacked?
EITHER WAY:
Press Phone Key>Options>GSM/UMTS Services:
Here select Band....then, "Get Settings"
The first tab should say GSM. Drop down menu option you want is WCDMA. This will force 3G all the time. However I don't recommend this setting as this will consume more battery.
Leaving it in 2G saves more battery and voice quality doesn't change....
hi,
maybe you flashed the radio part of the rom also, when you flash from 1.43 to 1.48?. im not sure, but you should check out this htc update, and try it. its a replacement for the radio portion of your rom only, and maybe fixing your problems. my singnal strengh has stoped to swing between full and no bars, and i have full bars most of the time, with this update.
regards mad.

Stock Roms include the Radio so if there was a change between one stock and the other then a change will occur...
There is nothing wrong with the radio band switching automatically though so unless you have bad reception, everything should be fine.

First, as you can assume, i have the HTC Hero...since i was not satisfied with the 1.5 version ( android ) i updated it to 2.1 ( Eclair version )..now the problem is that when i add the APN settings, it starts the 3G network and i don't have any option to "close" it...on the 1.5 version i had a the Wifi, Bluetooth and i think Data connection, but now only the Wifi, Bluetooth... so in a summary, i can open and close the wifi and bluetooth but i can't regulate the 3G network, when i set it, it starts and there is no way to turn it off...
So does anyone has an idea how to solve this?
Thanks in advance

No, just the silent option, airplane, reboot or turn off...
The irony is that when i turn Wifi on, the 3G also turns on...but when i close the wifi the 3G still works...

Im using MCR3.2. (Link in my signature). Fast and stable,... No issues whatsoever. But it is still only an Android 1.5 ROM. I'm planning on adding the 768mhz overclock kernal to it tonight, hopefully will fly like a Legend then.
Ooops,... Sorry
You not the only one with this puzzling problem wkulen! Same rom as you, and it seems I can't close 3g even with that APNdroid is set to be off! It looks like it still using data from 3g - hope not otherwise it could be a costly mistake!
i've got the opposite problem...
ROM: current official...
My 3g or data internet connection sometimes doesn't turn on when I switch off the wifi. But it happens most of the time, but not all the time. What I normally do everytime is to go to Settings/Wireless controls/Mobile network settings/Network operators - and I "select automatically". Then my network data kicks back in. It's a hassle but I don't know what else to do.
Hey guys,
i have constant battles with my HD2 running Android. The mobile reception and logically because of that APN is also not workin properly.
Example: I'm at home and have full mobile-reception and internet is working flawlessly. One second later nothings workin... The reception display shows 4/4 lines and one second later 0/4. But i didn't move.. Same with WLAN and APN..
I guess it's not a "build problem", cuz i had this with lots of builds. So it's maybe a windows mobile thing. I have flashed 2.12.50 radio and chucky droid rom.
I tried 2.14 but my conversational partners had very strong echos. (with MIUI-Build)
I searched the forum and googled but i didn't find any solution for this..
Really need this to be fixed.
thx bench

I don't know a lot about android. But i had similar "echo" problems when i used a TMOUS based rom. I use miris 1.80 based rom with 2.14 radio in the uk on vodafone with no problems.
Miri Rom Here: http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2520
Have you tried a RMNET based android build. The data connection with those is slower but generally more stable. I use ppp but do get the data drop off. but turning the mobile data off and turning back on again sorts the problem.
It would probably better to post such questions in the android general section.

Same problem here. Signal drops quite frequently and for now i like the sense builds which you cant switch to 2G (unless im missing something). With other builds if i switch to 2G its sort of fine but slow data connection.
Same here, I live in holland and use the 2.14 Radio. I don't have a data plan yet (the phone is brand new), so it doesn't really bother me.. yet
we really do need a fix for this
Is nobody havin an idea?
Me 2
I´m having the same problem...anybody know a cure for this?
no problems here ... 2.10.5 radio
Same problem here,tryed different combo's with wm and Android,radio's etc......signal drops now and then.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Always signal drops here.. 35% of the time. Mesured with battery indicator.. only in Android not in winmo and I didnt find the right radio and rom for less drops.
Thats so strange. About every 10mins i have a totally data loss. Tried different radios and roms. Nothing helped. As i tried 2.14 i had strong echo issues.
i uploaded some screenshots. They're all taken at the same place. So you can see how strange these reception changes are...

Boy I'm glad to see this thread, I thought it was just me!
I am having exactly the same issue, and have done since using android builds. The only workaround I have is to switch on plane mode, and then switch it off again which seems to work for an hour or two. But then the signal goes all wonky again.
I wonder if this is also affecting the battery life. I'm sure I read somewhere once that loss of signal results in more battery use as the phone is constantly trying to locate signal.
I have tried a number of radio/rom combinations with no real change. As mentioned above, if I switch to 2G the signal seems more stable, but the data is unbearably slow.
I'm in the UK by the way.

I have the same problem. I might try the 10.2.5 radio as above?
I had this issue with Android that signal drops for no reason. The trick to my problem? Disable in the Netwok Mode "GSM/WCDMA Auto" and choose "GSM Only". Now the signal should work flawlessly without drops. It worked for me
Hi,
I apologize if it's the wrong forum or if I missed something in my search over the forums (and internet).
Current setup :
HTC Legend rooted, flashed with Azure 1.0.1 (cyanogen 6.0)
Kernel 2.6.29
Baseband 47.26.35.04u_7.05.35.26L
Issue :
For some reason I can't get my 3G connection stable. eg. When I enable Wifi - 3G drops (which is set up that way), but when I disable Wifi 3G doesn't come back up. Even though the settings are correct.
I'm having a hard time getting any mobile data correctly going, it generally requires me to enable/disable wifi and reboot the phone several times.
Basically I've tried factory resets, checking the settings (config of mobile networks too), it doesn't stay in 2G mode, ... I've test with other Cyanogen based roms and it's the exact same issue. Is it possible this is due to a radio being wrong or is it possible it's actually the phone?
So:
- 2G only is DISabled
- Mobile data is enabled
- wifi off
- settings (mobile connection parameters) are correct
- tried different roms
- checked in places I know I should get a good connection (My provider is Telenet, they use the Mobistar network, my previous provider was mobistar. So the coverage should remain the same.)
I am at my wits end and do apologize if this is a stupid question, but I can't think of anything else that could interfere with this.
Have you tried to leave the 2G/3G settings by default? That is, not to disable 2G. It is anyway switching to the best it can aquire, so if you have strong signal you should get allways 3G. I never had these problems with any ROM I've tried...nightly, Azure, RC1/RC2

Quick solution : put one of HTCs widgets for mobile network on your homescreen and as soon as you turn WiFi off toggle the mobile network widget and 3G should start working again . It's a hit or miss though.

Must have used the wrong keywords >.< Sorry. Though thank you for the link, it is EXACTLY the prob I am encountering. At least now I know it's not the rooting that caused it.
About the HTC widget : I've used it, but it's indeed a hit or miss. Best solution seems to switch to 2G and switch back to 3G that way.
Leaving all the settings at standard (and the most recent flash to the CM RC1) helped with the overall connectivity though.
hello everyone!
i'm having issues in the 3G HSDPA network conection...
i mean slow internet conectivity and dissconection...
i have talked to my Cell Operator the say that thier network is fine at my area and i think they are right cause i get full signal and the HSDPA uplink icon
but while using the conection i'm having these issues.
my question is:
can it be ROM/Kernal related? i'm using HyperDroid CM7 2.1.0 r10
if so what can i do?
will the internet will be more stabe on WM6.5?
cause idc what OS i'm using i know how to use them all and all of them are quite comftable to me the reason i use Android is for Whatsapp only since it's not available to WM6.5/WP7...

just to inform you that, they said that to me. the signal is good in my house, even looked up online 3g coverage for my area and says excellent, but i only get mobile internet in my house, but when am out and about or even at work i get constant HSDPA (Starts from when i take 2 steps away from front door), which it doesn't bother me considering i use wifi at home, so that might be the same issue your having, IGNORE what your operator says all they can really do is give you apn settings and hope for the best then it goes down the your handset, the only thing that can really stop you also is the radio you have and going by your signature you have latest one, so go the shop or somthing and test it to see if it improves...
I had the same issues for ages signal dropping out all the time and slow speeds I tried all the different radios and roms and everything, I can't confirm because I'm no dev but I think it was down to the kernal I only use the tytung r10 latest with 2.15 radio

is there a 3g survey on the market for your area? because apparently its meant to be very accurate the one i use is UK 3g Survey and tells you precisely how much 3g connection your getting say like 3g 30% 2g 70% / 3g 80% 2g 20% you get me point anyways... look it up
