Hey everyone,
Had the Galaxy S2 since Saturday, unlocked the device, everything was working great. Out of no where, yesterday the phone still shows the H+ logo and full signal, yet i cannot send, receive text messages, initiate a data connection or make/receive phone calls.
In order to get all that ability back, you either have to 1) reboot the device, or 2) turn airplane mode on then off.
This only works for roughly 10 minutes before it all happens all over again.
I tried swithing to WCDMA only, but issue still persists, even tried some menu codes I found on another thread to disable H+ but the same thing happens.
This is currently happening on the bell shipped rom with no root or anything of the sort.
Has anyone experienced this?
I've searched for hours but can only really find complaints of data connection loss only. In my case it's everything. Data / SMS / Cell
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I feel your pain, even though I have an XEU unlocked GS2, I've updated it with every update from kies hoping the issue would resolve.
Even with the latest KF3 update the issue persisted, however the phone could be used on Rogers with no issues, on Telus data drops constantly.
Disabling fast dormancy didn't do much to help.
However since updating the phone to KG3 2.3.4 yesterday I have not had the issue happen again. For the first time since I got the phone it no longer drops the data connection on Telus.

Thanks for the quick response. Was it only your data that disconnected, or everything else?
Also, may you please link me to the update? I suppose I could use that as a last ditch effort before exchanging the device before its too late.
My issue has changed over the past couple months, originally the phone would report that it dropped the network and when it came back data wouldn't work until airplane off then on or a reboot.
Lately things seemed fine with occasional data drops until yesterday, when it had full signal but I couldn't use data, sms or make a call. It was basically a paper weight until I updated it. The link to the file which has everything you need to update from samfirmware.com is below.

*edit - I'd make sure you have a back-up of your current firmware in case you need to flash back and return the phone.
I have the exact same problem. Bought a bell gs2 unlocked it and now with telus. My data dropped constantly and now I'm using the newest litening rom and now it only drops maybe once or twice a day so a huge improvement

If it's any consolation, I ran my Virgin SIM over the weekend (just to burn up the data I had to buy for a 1 month) and the same thing happened on stock firmware.
In my case, it would put me in "emergency calls only" mode, saying I wasn't authorized for the network (i.e. it wasn't recognizing my SIM). Tried the usual stuff (re-seating SIM, using the Telus SIM, reboots, cache wipes, network WCDMA/GSM selection etc), and nothing fixed it, it just seemed to come back on its own when it was good and damned ready no matter which SIM I used.
Flashed to "Frankenstein" KG3 on Sunday, and neither the Virgin or Telus SIM has lost network since then, in the same areas. WiFi seems to be working better too.
Hey guys,
i bought an onlocked DVP in Germany, and since the last weeks the thingy is getting a bit strange, Phone is working fine.
But sometimes people can't get trough to me? Always Mailbox, sms don't arrive at my phone? Its on and showing that it has full network connection ....
anyone else has experienced that before? is it a bug in the hardware or is my service provider at fault ?
Thanks in advance
i asked my provider if the network has some technical difficulties but they are running fine.
is then something wrong with my phone?
again full network connection but calls don't come through to me ...
Sometimes I have to reboot phone to get things running again. Try that, I haven't had any other solutions.

Sometimes the network connection does switch between no connection/G/E/3G for me, radio is basically flaky.
i've never had a problem. I don't even think i've rebooted the phone ever ethier (other than updates).
Always have H.
Hi guys,
I am new here. Initially I had my vs980(verizon) LG G2 on official android 4.4(kitkat) and used a t mobile sim(but I never used to get 4g internet. I used to get HSPA(3g)internet but I had to reboot each time to use it,2g internet worked fine) and I could call and send messages.
My problem
And then something weird happened. I couldnt get any connectivity at all. It says that I have connected to a 4g network, but when I try to call the connectivity dissappears. I can recieve messages, but message sending fails. I cant recieve or send calls.
Solutions I tried
1. Tried my friends T mobile SIM on mine. Same issue ( But my SIM works normally on his phone)
2. Installed official 39a lollipop from verizon. Same issue
3. Installed T-mobile ROM lollipop which I found on xda here . Same issue persists, but I can at least use wifi calling now.
Any idea on what the issue might be? Or any solution?
Do I need to try flashing a different modem or something?
Or could this be a hardware issue? since it failed across different roms(official/unofficial)
If its a hardware issue, any idea what parts should be replaced?
Hello, I've been having LTE issues with my phone basically every since I got it. Switching it to connect to 4G helps the issue in order to keep a constant connection, however with the LTE connected, it either doesn't connect at all (despite full bars) or is EXTREMELY slow for a moment and cuts out.
It worked perfectly for about the first week, then I started having issues like texts not sending or receiving (sometimes up to around 7) duplicates back. I've restored it multiple times to no avail. At one point, it worked flawlessly for about a month so I'm not convinced it's a hardware issue. I've never flashed anything else on the device and don't know how to safely.
I'm going out of my mind, any help us appreciated.
PS:
Android Version: 5.1.1
Model Number: SM-G928W8
I have s7 edge with nougat and I have had it for a while. About a month ago I started seeing some connectivity issues.
Wifi will give out and it will say "internet may not be available" If i restart the modem it usually reconnects fine otherwise I have to wait a few minutes.
I use Verizon Message+ as well and some message will say "sending" next to them instead of "delivered" and eventually they will send ... but my recepients tell me that they are getting the same messages OVER AND OVER.
If I restart the phone it will send them a message from hours sometimes days ago!
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON....
I already did a full factory reset last night. It was fine until this afternoon...
Hi,
Try reflashing the stock ROM, specially the modem, connectivity issues are highly related to the modem your phone is using, since it's the software responsible for connecting the phone to a network.
If that doesn't help, then try putting in another SIM Card, or ask Verizon for another one to test your phone.
