I have a note 4 which I flashed to metropcs. Every once in a while the data turns itself off. The 4glte icon goes away. I have to do into data usage and manually turn it off,then on again. Sometimes it happens 10x a day. Others 2x. Also sometimes I gave to wait anywhere from 1 to 10 min's before it will turn on again.... Anyone have ideas?
I had this issue for awhile. When you say flashed to metro pcs what do mean. Whay varient And what rom kernel combo
I guess flashed was a poor choice of words. I had it switched or whatever you want to call it.
It was a tmobIle phone.
I'm running Android 5.1.1. Everything is stock.
Kernel is 3.10.40-6209177.

I've had my Galaxy Note for a few months now with no issues, all of a sudden last week it would show the H logo (but the little arrows showing data conntection would not move). but when I clicked on anything I would not have any sort of internet connection. I have to restart the phone to get internet connection again, I was on a new rom for over a week before it started happening, I tried 2 other roms since then and still have the same issue. I am about to try a stock rom and see if it still happens. I have also tried different kernels, is there anything else I should try? I show full bars for phone signal and still receive texts (not mms) normally when this happens but no data at all until I restart my phone.
Do you have any "power saving" apps like juicedefender? If you do, you may want to check your settigns as it could be disabled by said app (although you should be able to reconnect at any given time).
You said you have switched roms to see if the issue persisted. When you did this, did you full wipe or just wiped cache?

I've been having similar problems with a few of the custom roms (but can't remember if stock does it or not). In my case I'd lose data for about 5-10, then it would come back, and it randomly happened. I fortunately don't have to restart the phone to fix the issue like you do though. :\ Let me know if the stock rom fixes things!

I don't have juice defender or anything like that... even when i restart my phone, it takes forever for it to catch data, right now i restarted it, its been probably on for a good 3-4 min and still not showing any data.
I always full wipe when I install a new rom.
and it finally came on after a reset but usually data shows the second the phone turns on, this time it took it a good 5 minutes before the H appeared
I would suggest restoring to your first backup after you rooted your phone and see how it goes with the stock rom. Good luck!

I'm having a problem with my N900W8 since doing the Kitkat upgrade.
On Jellybean, I can be in a building, unable to get LTE, but have strong 3G/HSPA+ connection and it works great.
Ever since upgrading to Kitkat though, while LTE continues to work great, if not faster in my speed tests, when on 3G/HSPA+, after a short while, the data connection seems to freeze. I'll see it drop from H+ to 3G in the menu bar, and just merely a flashing up arrow, and nothing else. It never seems to fix itself, and I just have to put the device to sleep by tapping the power button. Within a minute it regains a good data connection again for maybe another 2 minutes. This is constant.
I'm at a loss, it's a new phone and only had it for 2 months. It's not rooted or anything like that, just unlocked by the distributor, and on T-Mobile (if that matters).
It's getting annoying because it makes using my data connection completely unusable. Samsung techs were actually quite helpless, they wanted me to send in my phone, but it seems to be software related because it worked fine on Jelly bean. It literally happened RIGHT away after the kitkat upgrade.
Please someone help? I already have checked, double checked, triple checked the APN settings, even deleting them and starting over, and trying both fast and epc APN's on T-Mobile.
I reset the device back to factory, and all was well. And I noticed that it started happening again after running the speedtest.net app on the 3G.. It seems to start doing it again when I run that app, and when I "cleared" all the app cache, the problem seemed to go away. Not sure then what's going on there.
Hey guys I've got my N6P International set, with nanosim.
Every once in a while, when I'm surfing the net, facebook etc. my data would just drop from LTE to "No Service" and stays there for 15 or so seconds before jumping back up.
I have tried going back to stock/locked bootloader, tested with another sim card and yet the issue occurs.
Using my sim card on another phone shows no drop in signal.. any advice or if I should RMA my device.
Currently back to 6.0.1 Chroma.
Its getting really frustrating in the last 10 mins to drop over 3 times.
With phone on take SIM card out, then restart the phone. After it reboots, then reinsert the SIM card.
thanks for the tip but it don't really help, still happening.
Have the same issue. Ended up having to RMA my phone. Huawei must have sent me a diffrent phone (used) since the IMEI is diffrent. It worked for couple hours then I got Nougat 7.1.2 update and LTE started droping again . Thought the update caused the issue so I unenrolled from Andorid Beta and rolled back to 7.1.1. but it did not help. Does anyone have a clue what could be the cause?
I do have the same issue for about 2-3 months, but only at work where's pretty bad signal. Data stays on until its used by any app, play store upgrade or yt video buffering for instance. Then it disconnects and search for signal again. Very annoying. At home everything works just fine. That's really really strange.
I was just wondering if anyone else has problems with their LTE dropping to 3G out of the blue. This happens when I am at home in a really strong LTE area. My wife's Nexus 6 doesn't do this, it stays in LTE. This only seems to happen to me when I am at home.
I am running the latest PN ROM, latest vendor and gapps, and I have tried numerous kernels. Both my wife and I are using the Verizon sim through Straight Talk.
Thanks for any help or ideas you might have.

I've made a post that mentioned this. There is a issue affecting only the Nexus 6p Phones. Google supposedly fixed the issue. Although Some seems are still having issues. Apparently it's stemming from the GPS. They have a workaround that's helping some. Have your carrier clear your location, disable your GPS, Reboot phone. Uninstall updates for Google connectivity services, and try to update it. And again reboot.
I continued having issues even though they fixed it, so I went cleared out system reflashed stock images, rebooted, via mskip toolkit. Been running pure stock except root, and been working fantastic with no issue. Hope this answers your question. Good Luck!
This has happened to me like... Once or twice since I've owned my 6P (~7 months) on Verizon (Non-MVNO VZW). Flopping airplane mode, Forcing the modem to reassociate would get it to jump back on LTE. The issue I've had more frequently (20-30 times since purchase) is the phone just falling off all data completely.
If VZW LTE coverage in your area is good (It's insane here in Florida) I'd recommend trying forcing LTE only.
Dial *#*#4636#*#* from the phone dialer. Then under the "Phone Information" menu. Hit the drop down that should currently say "LTE/CDMA/UMTS Auto (PRL)" and set it to LTE.
This is going to cause one of two things.
1. It'll fix your problem, Meaning it was actually some kind of provisioning/priority issue. Your phone for some reason couldn't hang on LTE, So it fell back to 3G to maintain connectivity. Even though it would've worked if it would've tried LTE again.
2. You'll still fall off LTE. But this time, Instead of falling to 3G, It'll disconnect completely.
If it ends up being #1, I'd try swapping SIM's with your wife for a day or so, Just to see if it follows the phone or the sim card.
Just started having this issue yesterday.
Before that almost never.
I also just upgraded to the August security path.
Well my calls dropped out 3 times, On Oputs network Here in Austrlia and i was on 3G and good signal, Lastest Pacth and Stock anroid.
Alright guys, I am done with this. I am at unlocked international/UAE S10+ (SM-G975F on Exynos) which is kept uptades as soon as OTA comes out. Now I am on Build PPR1.180610.011.G975SFXXSASH1, baseband version G975FXXU3ASG8. Sometimes (like 2-4 times per day!!) I got this issue, where my signal is lost, and network gets disconnected (Screen 1 & 2). At the same time, for comparison, my iPad LTE is still connected, without any network issue (screen 3). iPad uses same carrier as SIM 2, SIM 1 is different, but as you can see, both are disconnected. Once I turn on & off the airplane mode - everything comes back to normal just in a second (screen 4). I tried wiping cache, wiping network settings, but it's not helping! The issue is, that once it's disconnected I have no idea how long it keeps this way, and nobody can call me during that time, that pisses me off. It seems like a software issue to me?
