HI
I have galaxy tab P5100
While browsing the internet somethimes the page will stop loading and it says there is no connection,
same when i'm tethering via usb or wifi to my computer and i'm playing online game it disconnects me
every few minutes and i have to wait untill the connection is restored
It happens so often i can say it's a big issue
I can see the small icon 'H' and green arrow flashing but there is no connection
Then after a while it switches to '3G' then 'H' and finally to 'H+' and the connection is restored
I've read that 'it's a well knows bug' and tried some solutions but nothing helps
I'm sure its not the network as i've used sim card from Three,T-mobile and Talkmobile
everytime same problem
Please maybe somebody had same problem and knows how to fix this

Has anyone else had the problem that you go online and surf the web then maybe a couple of hours later you launch Opera again to go online and it just hangs (the data connection not opera)?
The only way to make it connect is to turn off the data connection then it will log back on...

yeh iv been getting that problem for sometime now, its frustrating, sometimes i even have to soft reset to get the data connection working. It shows that the data connection is fine and everything seems connected, but then when you try and update weather or browse the web (anything that uses data) you end up getting an error,
its very similar to the problem you get on your home broadband, your router shows its connected and your dsl and everything is active yet you get a white page on your browser and then you have to reset your router, very very frustrating, so i understand your problem exactly.
I'm wondering if this is anything to do with changing cells on your network?
When you travel to a different cell location although the network says you are still connected (and you can still send/receive calls) the data network has actually dropped and needs refreshing?
I suppose what we are after is a program that can refresh the data network every few mins - don't know if this is possible though?
Here in Germany o2 has a problem with the Qualcomm Chipset. I also have hanging connections. A workaround is to disable HSDPA. Maybe you have the same problem?
same problem here (also o2 Germany)
the 3G icon is there and the bubble says there is a connection for x minutes but opera or google maps mobile report a missing connection after a short time of usage. i have to kill the connection manually and after the connection is reestablished it works again for few minutes...... this is so frustrating...
GPRS
Same problem in Czech republic with O2 provider.
At this moment I found as a fastest way to switch off and on the radio.
I'm using most of the time GPRS connection and this problem is about two times per day so reconnection every day two times is really annoying.
Hopefully somebody will find solution soon...
My problem is slightly different. Sometimes (after using Opera or not) I try to refresh weather and it says "refreshing" but the data connection won't connect (it shows antenna, no arrows with H or 3G). I must then soft reset the PDA to make it work. Any solutions or similar experiences?
Blackstone data connection problems
I have been getting the same problem for sometime now, it is very frustrating, I always have to soft reset to get the data connection working.

I am also wondering if this problem is limited to Blackstone (HTC Touch HD) or extends to HD2 also?
I have noticed that no one ahs posted any solution.
Comeon senior guys PLEASE help us out here.
Many thanks in advance.
Kam2kam, question, What rom are you using, and are you using activesync? If so, have you downloaded any email attachments? I was having the same problem where a couple of times a day I would have to soft reset. The connection would look fine, but if you tried to update anything or browse the net you were met with an error. It was frustrating. I finally narrowed the issue down to activesync and the new manila documents tab. My theory was that when I downloaded an attachment to view in the documents tab activesync would continue to sync the attachment each time it polled for new mail. Since activesync is often slow to sync attachments, my connection to the VPN would timeout before it could finish syncing causing the dreaded "waiting for network". My thought was my VPN connection would freeze thereby preventing my carrier internet from being able to connect; since, at least for me, you cannot have two different data session running simultaneously, i.e. VPN connection and the carrier's connection. The only cure was to soft reset. Ultimately what I did was hunt down any and all email attachments that I had dowloaded, and deleted them all. Since then my data connection went from freezing up twice a day to zero times a day and it's now been over two weeks.
You may not have the same set up as I do, but perhaps there may be something similar going on.
I hope that helps a bit.
Hi,
Since a few days, everytime i try to use GPS like in google maps, i loose the data connection (except wifi) but Edge, 3g or hsdpa disapear.
And the worst is that to get it back i need to reboot the phone. Switching the wifi off doesn't help.
When if is off, everything is working well.
I'm on cyanogem 5.0.6 but i'm using CM since a long time and never noticed it before (and at the begining there was no problem with 5.0.6)
If a watch the dmesg logs right after starting the gps and loosing the data connection i see a red message with : "qmi: wds: network start failed (000e)"
Anyone else experienced this problem ? Please tell me it's not an hardware problem and there is a software solution !
I am not sure if it is the GPS but I also experience the problem that I don't have a data connection anymore over EDGE or HSDPA. The icon is there in the notification bar but I can't connect anyway. Only a reboot brings back the connection .
help .. me too

I m kinda experiencing the same problem .. I would be using wi-fi, updating my apps thru the marketplace and at the end of the day when i need to use gprs to check my online frens, I can't.. the little gprs/edge logo just shows on my taskbar but I can't seem to access the net .. But amazingly it works fine after restarting my fone.. I don't want to restart everytime this happens as doin so will result in re-caching of my gallery most of the time( a bug I noticed) and it sucks when u have a huge collection of photos in almost 300 sorted folders ...
a little help here, anyone ?

Does anyone notice this seems to happen after leaving a long wifi connection?

Hi!
Does anyone have issues using the S200 as a 3G modem?
The specific problem I am having is as follows:
I can establish a connection (either via USB connection + Internet sharing; or by Wifi Router) and the internet works (on HSPA or EDGE/GPRS depending on coverage - and accordingly there is indication of "H" "E" or "G")
But sometimes the connection just dries up... on Windows, the icon that says I have a connection (the roundish one for USB, or the wifi single bars for Wifi) gets an exclamation bar which means "no internet"
If this happens, very rarely it fixes itself (I think this happens when the phone drops the internet connection after timeout for non-usage and is able to recover the connection; but I'm not sure). But sometimes the problem occurs even in the middle of a download...
And most of the time, I have to soft reset to restore connectivity (removing and reconnecting via USB, or stopping/starting WifiRouter doesn't help).
This could possibly be an issue with my provider (but, on regular 3G modems this problem hardly ever occurs at all; but happens generally at least 1/day with my phone) but I doubt it... I don't think it's an issue with a specific ROM because I've had this problem across many ROMs.
So, if anyone has any experiences to share it might be helpful to track down the problem...

Hi guys,
after having installed CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.6 I have got problems with WiFi and 3G connection. Sometimes it seems my phone disconnects with the internet. Actually, the widget shows that connections are enabled but the market or browser won´t load anymore and I get the message that I need to check the connection :S
In this case, the only thing that helps is to switch to flightmode for some seconds. Sometimes even this does not solve the problem and I have to restart my phone.
Hope, you guys can help me. Thanks.
I noticed another problem, that might have a relation to the first one i have described.
Sometimes when I like to connect my phone to the internet via 3G or WiFi (using the integrated widget) it does not connect at all. The status bar does not show the WiFi or 3G sign and browsing is not possible.
Damn guys I need your help
So my problem is that after i connect in any wifi network, my phone says "no internet" however I really have internet connection (for example i can go to facebook), and after reboot it works normal sometime. Tried factory reset with no any help. So does someone have same problems and if you do, did you fix it?
My phone does this with any wifi network and everytime reboot "fix" it. Also i don't do anything special before this problem appears.
Phone: S7 Edge (G935F)
OS: Android 7 Nougat
so it's just cosmetic?
I guess to determine if you've internet the smartphone is pinging a certain server which seems not to be available in your case.
I only did restart once and while I'm on recognized network, it was fixed permanently. It happened only on first use, you may need to reboot the router

Well i guess it's only cosmetic since i can use browser normally and my whatsapp etc works great. I just don't understand why it works this way.
I have similar issues on my wi-fi. When strength of signal goes under 50% (ca <65 dBm), it starts to lag and very offen lost connection to the internet...pretty disturbing and dissapointing I have to say.

Okay, is it like it's really losing connection or just saying that like in my case (i have the connection, but my phone thinks i don't so it shows that "no internet" notification in wifi settings and in the wifi icon)?
It is really also losing of connection, download stuck or is really sloooow. It is also indicated in status bar in Wi-Fi icon (exclamation mark) and under Network name is "Internet can be unavailable".
When the signal is weak, I can't even finish network test through Ookla app - upload test can't be finished.
Same situation is with other wifi networks...in my work when the signal is at 50% signal, it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting, my other phone has stable connection at the same place where Edge is strugling
Screenshots are attached.
