Is there anything to rectify the signal issues on the niki?
I have touch which has fine signal and dual which always loses signal gms and 3g.
they are both in the same place and i get drop outs from one second to the next.
I dont think i am running a special rom other than the original orange uk rom. i could be wrong mind...
same issue here
i am running nikki,s rom now and have tryed every radio on my mda touch plus but signal is very bad al the time with every radio version i think it is a issue off this phone or does anybody have tips to improve signal.
Hi guys.
my issue is easy to understand.
My BA can't hold one GPRS connection without dropping it.
Tried several ROM's, as even connected to the charger do the same. It have the same issue with other service providers sim cards.
Strangely, this started to happen once i didn't used it for more than 1month. (work vacations)
Any idea about what is affecting my BA?
I need his GPRS capabilities fully working without dropping, because it is one work tool.
still waiting for one suggestion that doesn't mean "trow it away from the window"
GPRS drops on SX66 if:
1. Battery voltage is low
2. Signal strength is low
even connected to the charger it drops.
even fully chatged, it drops
the signal in my house is strong, and in the past never dropped, even in low coverage areas with only 2 bars, or even 1.
tnx
maybe my battery is deffective? the old one is, but this one i am using, have barelly a year of usage. :-\
well folks, problem solved.
How i did it?
Simple. Downgraded my Radio stack to 1.13.00
and now works.
isn't it weird? I even reloaded the 1.15.00 and keep on failing, today tried this 1.13.00 and now, my problem is gone. well, glad to have it back on the road.
Hello, I have been having some serious reception issues with my G1. Have tried the latest radio rom and a cople of cyanogen roms and super d all the same. I also got a new sim card thinking it was from that to no avail. All the other phones don't have any issues connecting only my G1. I mostly get up to 2 bars and then drop down to No service again. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
What radio do you have? Is it just signal bars? Or 3g also?
sent from my superfroyo dream
I have radio 2.22.23.02 And its with anything 2G or 3G
Problem seems to have gone after a hard reset and flashing superfroyo .
Now I'm having another issues with the gps. The signal is very weak and can barely ever get my location. Never had this problem before with Super D, anyone knows how to fix this ? (apart from rolling back to Super D) Maybe there is some way to increase the power or something? Thanks
Edit: Fixed it by using this tutorial: http://wccftech.com/2010/09/09/solving-gps-nofix-problem-cyanogenmod-6-nexus/
hi im using android at moment with radio 2.14.50 and when i at work when signal is low when using phone and surfing the net through 3g the phone gets really hot and freezes did it few times on winmo just woundering is it the radio that could be the problem
Changing the radio ROM could give you better signal. You have to play around with them to see which one works best in your work area.
For the freezing problem, it might be Android ROM related. Does this happen even when you have a good signal and surf the net on the phone?
Hello Optimus 7 owners,
My Optimus 7 already went in warrancy repair for the infamous "reboot issue" and now the problem is gone but... it seems that data connection is absolutely unstable. I wanted to understand if I'm the only one with this problem or if it's a common one.
The data connection constantly switch from max power H to one bar of G, then 3 bar of 3G, then one bar of H and so on without a rule and many times switching even to the "no signal" icon, then resuming in one second. (if it's unclear I can make a video and post it to youtube)
I'm on Vodafone Italy and it's not an operator signal issue because my wife phone (an old Motorola V3) don't has such strange Behavior, and my old HTC Touch HD worked as expected too!
That behaviour translate to an unstable data connection, many time I see timeouts or long wait time before data start to works in apps that use internet.
The strange thing is that if I speak with phone there seems to have no problem...
I'm alone or someone is in my same boat??? What do you think about this strange Behavior?
Here my versions:
SO version: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware version: 1.0.1.10
Hardware version: 1.0.0.0
Radio sw version: 1.0.1.10
Radio hardware version: 0.3.5.0
Bootloader version: 1.5.0.0
SOC processor version: 0.30.2.0
The phone has it's original firmware, I've never done strange things
Thank you in advance to all kind people that will answer
No one with data connection switching between 3G, H, G and no signal like me? I'm the one in the world with this problem??? I can't believe that...!
I have partly observed that behaviour on my set, I tend to have some signal issues as in always very few bars (say one or two) where others using same carrier have full connection.
Not sure if it's a firmware problem, read something about a pending fix from LG but I can't find the article anymore so it might have been bogus.
This can cause the phone to rapidly switch from 3G to E (Edge) to H at times.
It's not such a big problem for me so I guess I really don't think about it much.
/J
I'm thinking about sending my phone again to repair... :'(

This is the same for me as well - i live in a bad signal area anyway which doesnt help but the phone will go from full signal to no signal back to decent signal.
A Dell Streak on the same network has much more stable signal.
Must say it has improved slightly in Mango although not that much
Well..... I don't know if I have the same issue. I work in a large building and I know I have a weak signal inside. So most of the day it stays on G, sometimes E if I just pull it out of my pocket from behind something.
The issue I have is that when I know there is a better connection, it doesn't seem to jump on it. I either have to go into the cellular selection in settings or simply reboot it and it will find, display, and fully use H connection. Which I am more than pleased with the performance.
Trouble is, both the office and the house have weak signals so as long as it's G or 3G I'm happy. The only time I get to H is if I'm traveling around town and get to play with it.

Posted problem to youtube
I've created a video on youtube that shows the problem as it occur. It's written in italian language but I'm sure you'll understand what's happening whitout problems
Please whatch the video and tell me if you have the same/similar issue as I have (switching between 3G and H with very unstable data transfer / stuck)

This is my first post so I would like to greet the entire XDA community.
I'm facing the same issue (instable 3G connection). With my previous smartphone, a Sony Experia X1 with Win Mobile 6.5 + Manila ROM (thanks XDA!!), 3G connection works like a charm. I think that poor connection performance have as side effect the excessive battery drain (12-16 hr with push email disabled).

I have a similar issue. I live in spain, and it seems that the connection here is an option.
Anyways, like I said, the connection is bad, but many times, the phone switches off the data connection alone for a randoom time. then it comes again.
I used the Word switch off, because, although data connection is off, I can make and recieve calls.
This makes me obviously nervious, because I don't want to call trough phone-line, I want to call through Tango!!!! and chat through whatsapp instead of sms
Can you post system info of your LG Optimus 7?
Particularly OS version, brand and SIM operator. I wonder if it happens when brand of smartphone and SIM are different.
Thanks.

If you want mine you can read them in my signature. Previously I had TIM-IT ROM with Vodafone IT SIM and I had same problem. Today I have reflashed with Vodafone IT ROM and a Vodafone IT SIM, same problem.
I don't know what to do... I don't believe a LG service can fix the problem.... Or yes? Is anyone that sent device to service for that problem??? Please tell us your story!
This is very noticeable on mine - so much so im using a Wildfire S that holds signal perfectly well in the same place (not as good a phone though). Will try and see if locking it to 3G only will help.
Hopefully LG release a firmware update for this.
Some new considerations. Usually I work in an office with poor 3G signal strength (max 2 bars) where I have instable data connection (and voice calls too). Yesterday I worked all day long in another location with good 3G signal strength (at least 4 bars) and I haven't had any connection problem: email (Exchange and Gmail accounts), IE, Market Place etc. always available.
Now I am at my usual office and once again I have an instable data connection. No reset/restart/switch off/fw update in the last three days.
Is it possible that it is only a "bad reception" issue?
How many bars do you have when instable data connection issue occurs?

It's very difficult to tell you how much signal there is at my home (where I've recorded the youtube video) because my LG Optimus 7 is reporting a value from 0 to 5 bars.... Normally it stays at 4 of 5, if I configure not to use 3G it stays to 5 of 5 bars. In My Nokia E65 I've used to compare loading times, the signal is at 100% of the bar.
I really can't understand what's going on with my device... The main thing is that I cannot understand if it's a common device problem or only my device problem. Maybe the second? If that's the case I'll send to repair for the second time my phone (other 3 weeks without phone... ahrg!)
I've the same problems with my LG Optimus 7. My common carrier is E-Plus/base here in germany. Extreme fluctuating signal (switching between 3G, H and E in less than 2 seconds) when starting a "online-app" and it doesn't depend on the location (indoor/outdoor). The Data-Rate is poor and most times i have the "no-signal-sign" in the upper left, but the strange thing is, i can buzz so. without problems...
Looks like a poor programmed signal-display.
no signal
Yes, in fact I noticed too, in these days, that sometimes I'm stuck with "no signal" symbol even if I can ring to my phone... I've also seen the no signal symbol while communicating from internet (yes, wifi was off...) I think the LG driver is very poor, in fact the battery too has the problem that it doesn't update if you don't turn off the device.
I can accept that the signal symbol is not realistic but not that data doesn't come in/out! It's terrible.
I have the issue, I'm from Argentina and I have the same problem, indoor o outdoor it's the same. LG E900H.
I do a Factory reset yesterday and I haven´t this issue anymore. I do it for the battery life, and now I don´t have both issue. May be the unstable connection was the battery problem because the device is looking for signal everytime.
Of course I´m not sure but it´s possible. Good Luck
I have the same issue too.
Try to open MFG app and then select:
7. Engineer Menu
4. Modem settings
2. Band Settings
Select WCDMA Only (GSM only may help also) and reboot phone.
Same here
I'm with Vodafone-it and have the same issue, and even worst: sometimes I loose my connection with Wi-fi, too, at my home, while all other devices continue working.
