I have v35 on AT&T prepaid, and it regularly drops calls, displaying popup with following text:
"call is dropped due to Wi-Fi coverage limitation"
Did anybody experience such thing?

So has anybody been noticing that sprint has had "network failures" alot lately? I cant send texts or sometimes even make calls as if my phone was deactivated. I was just curious who else has had this problem.
Hello...
Here in the Detroit area, we are experiencing the same issues. It's known by Sprint... Just be patient - unfortunately!
Haven't seen this in New York.
I can't receive incoming calls today -- data is working fine (internet, text messaging, & email) and outbound calls are working... I'm also seeing a roaming triangle that I usually don't see... Earlier today calls to my cell phone got a busy signal -- now they get an "all circuits are busy" message...
Has anyone experienced this before? I seem to loose 3G connectivity while talking on a call. I can keep talking... but the 3G icon disappears and I see an alert icon notifying me that I've lose data connectivity.
This doesn't happen all the time, but quite often. Sometimes, the icon with signal bars will have a small 'R' at the top left indicating that I may be in Roaming mode.
I've got the ATT Nexus One with Bell Mobility as my carrier (Canada). They have a pure HSDPA network with no 2G fall back, so I'm not sure how I could lose 3G and still be on the call... I've got 2.2.1 FRG83 with Stock Android and the phone is NOT rooted.
Any suggestions? Should I reapply FRG83 -- or the entire stock android image (is this even possible on a non-rooted phone)?
Not sure if this is the same, as I never go into Roaming mode... but I routinely lose my data connection while making phone calls. I'm on T-mobile, btw.
Is this something normal? Have you just ended up living with it?
I'm slightly concerned about missing an email or SMS during a call if data connectivity is lost. Although, I don't think that data is truly lost as Bell Mobility only has a 3G network, there is no 2G to fall back on...
Are you sure you're not roaming over other networks? I'm sure you are switched to another network, and the data is dropped because Android has a switch to turn off data (which has nothing to do with SMS, by the way) when roaming, and this switch is on by default.
When the data is dropped, I believe it's not re-negotiated until the end of your conversation, so if you're switched to a roaming cell tower for even a second - your data is gone until the end of your call.
If your cellular carrier has agreement with other carrier's cell towers and they accept roaming (which is sometimes the case, as I've learned from this forum) - you should turn that switch off to retain data even when roaming.
When I am making an outbound call, or receiving an inbound call, the network indicator drops from full signal to almost no signal. If I am already in an area with a weaker signal, the network completely drops when I try to make a call, but then jumps back up when I stop. The same happens with inbound calls. I flashed to Resurrection Remix several months ago, but the issue didn't start until about 2 weeks ago. Ideas?
Phone: Tmobile D801
Carrier: Tmobile (LTE)
Location: US.
As an update: I went back to stock, and still have the same issues.
Sorry for the bump, but does anyone have any ideas? Otherwise, I have an expensive mp3 player
My office has almost zero bar signal of Sprint, but 2~3 bars signal of Verizon. Sometimes, my phone just stuck with Sprint, and won't receive and make calls due to very bad signal.
Is there any way to hack my (rooted) sprint HTC 10 to be always voice roaming on Verizon:
I don't care about data roaming, as my office has WIFI.
I am not likely to abuse roaming, as my phone calls are scarce. But I just don't want to miss calls during emergency.
Is there a way to hack the phone, like changing the PRL or sth. But I also like the flexibility of switch back anytime as my home has normal Sprint coverage.
Thanks,
Like the title says, the H910 connects to any network when the selected/preferred network is not available or has low signal. It doesn't matter if you manually select a network, if the signal goes very low it will connect to some other network.
The result is that you see "bars" but is not connected to the intended network and you may not realize that you are out-of-service. With an AT&T simcard you cannot select a network but even when traveling with a foreign sim (where the network selection is available) is still doing that.
Also, when is connected to the other network, you don't see the network name and if you try to make a call you get the "emergency calls only" message.
Probably this is considered a safety feature. Is there a way to turn this behavior off? I want my phone to be out-of-service if there is no signal. Especially since the signal at my home is very marginal lately and I would like to know whether I have service or not (at the moment I assume that if I see more than 2 bars that I don't have service).
