[Q] internet connection loss - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good day everyone. I have been using my samsung vibrant for weeks now with no problem. i noticed today that i couldnt connect to the internet through my stock browser. so also apps like the xda app and facebook book app will not connect to the internet, while my internet indicator is showing connected (both 2g and 3g).It keeps displaying ""nodes for the connection is not available" on the browser. However, at the same time i have able to connecting and use other apps like ebuddy, yahoomail e.t.c. My vibrant is unlocked and purchased from the US but presently using it in nigeria. My APN settings is still the same way since i started using it and my service provider, MTN, says all is well with my connection. This has occurred three times today... each time i had to switch off and back on, or turn on and off the flight mode for it to work sometimes.
Please, any help on how to resolve this?

Apparently our phones lose data connection when they switch from 2g to 3g or vice versa. To prevent it from happening at all go to settings -> wireless and network -> mobile network -> network mode -> and set it to gsm only to lock it on 2g OR wcdma only to lock it on 3g.

Thanks reform. I have tried choosing only 2g and even tried choosing only 3g...but the problem still persist. I had to turn my phone off and On severally for me to have my internet network back now. Is there any other way I can resolve this?

Hello everyone. Please can someone help me with this problem? I have tried everything possible but the phone kept cutting off my internet connection, but only for my browser, Facebook and xda app. Each time it displays 'node not available for this request' it actually deducted from my data plan but not connecting me. Any help please?

[Q] X10i Not connecting to Internet after 2.3.3 update

Hello everyone!
Just like everyone else I have been waiting infront of the screen for 3 days now to get this god forsaken update and when I finally get it everything works fine exceopt for the WiFi.
on 2.1 I used to get an Internet connection when on my WiFI, Now im connected to the router with full connection strength but I have absolutely NO internet connection, only an evil triangle telling me that I have limited network access.
This has happened to 3 of my phones (All of which are Identical)
And the only even closest similar issue here on XDA has been with the HTCD which dropped the WiFi connection if the signal was too weak, but mine is at full strength.
In short: My phone can do Everything but going on the internet...
What I have tried:
Putting the phone in DMZ
Disabling Firewall in the router
manually enter Static IP settings
anyone else experiencing the same issues and/or know how to silve it?
bump
[BUMP] just bumping this thread because without WiFi my use of the phone is limited to say the least...
Hi i get this too but ojly since the update, i have it working now but its still a problem it sorts itself out if i leave it on for a bit?

I have the another problem around since 2.3.3.
Wifi works fine,
But when not near a Wifi spot cannot access internet /send mms recieve mms , or download internet&mms settings. And this is the only similar problem i found <.<
But on your problem ofcourse might seem silly but im guessing your already tried rebooting/resetting the router? ^.
I beleive you have to be coolnnected to wifi to get settings for internet and mms.
And yes i have tried rebooting the modem but it didnt work so i just connect to the btopenzone signal my modem also gives off

Xperia x10 apps not connecting to the internet

Hi I recently went to bangladesh for a holiday. I noticed that the apps can't connect to the internet. Apart from the internet apps e.g. opera, dolphin web browser these can connect to the internet. I had no issue with this when I was in the uk. I was wondering if it could be because since there is no 3g network in bangladesh my phone is using 2g network connection - edge connection. Could it be because of that? Also when I was in the UK my phone use to have HSDPA connection and all the apps work when it is connected via wifi.
Hmm strange issue.. Are you using stock SE rom? Are you sure that there is no 3g connection or maybe you disabled it?
I think its your.carrier, theres no way to prove it but who knows

If your phone is on roam, it won't connect unless you go into data settings and allow it to.
I have this problem to, and i have 3g connection but apps cant connect to the internet.
Enable internet while roaming. If problem persists then the carrier dosent support it.

[Q] 3g stoped working, ideas?

Hi all,
I went on vacations, had my phone on airplane mode most of the time. When I came back I turned airplane mode off and now I can only connect to 2g antennas, if I select 3G only I don't get any signal.
When I try to manually search for network operators I get a "Connection unavailable" message
Any idea of what might be going on/how to fix it?

I flashed cyanogenmod to see if it was the radio driver but that didn't help
Check your apn settings maybe

When I select 3g only I can't even configure apns, I don't even get cellular signal.
Don't select 3G only. Use automatic.
Also if you have subscribed to a 3G plan, keep your data connection ON and try a restart.
Even face this often as i travel between two distant places once in a month. First time i did a factory reset. But second time onwards this helped.

Problem with EDGE connection

A few days ago I started experiencing this issue my phone. No more edge connection for some reason. I can connect to HSPA fine... but when is time to connect to any EDGE connection it does switch initially and I see that it tries to send data over EDGE but it does not receive anything. After a while it disconnects and when I go to phone properties I only see gprs mode. No active connection and no ip address. I tried flashing anther Rom and the same result. Can't find any information on the web specific to my issue. I think it could be either a bad 2g antenna or maybe the sim ....any of you experienced this problem?

Automatically switch networks

I am looking for some way to easily switch networks from GSM only to LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto. Either by a widget, or automatically when I am connected to wifi. The cell coverage of LTE/3G is really poor where I live, and the phone keeps trying to connect to these, and I experience some dropped calls due to it. All solutions I have found require xposed. My phone is rooted running stock ROM. Any solutions?
