[Q] Mobile Data Drop - Not Suspect To Outage - HTC Rezound

In the past two weeks, my mobile data has been down. I don't believe it to be an outage in my area due to the duration of the problem, and the inconsistency with other Verizon Wireless phones. I was running Juice Defender for a while, and every now and then I would notice that the Mobile Network would drop. Toggling the Mobile Network would not fix the problem, either. I usually cleaned out my cached data for the Juice Defender app, turned the app off, then toggled airplane mode once. (Sometimes just toggling Airplane Mode wouldn't fix it, therefore I had to clear the cache for the app.) Now this fails to work. I cannot get my mobile network to connect by any conventional means. When I receive MMS messages, my network will connect long enough to download the attachment. Also when I do a search for a Software Update, it connects just long enough to tell me there aren't any updates for my phone. I've tried updating my PRL with *228 and I've even tried *18 from a post over at Droid Forums. Neither work. I've removed the battery and SIM Card as suggested in some other threads here at XDA. I've also removed the Juice Defender app.
The phone is not rooted and has never been rooted with the Temp Root methods. I'm not opposed to rooting, but if I root, I'm gonna perm root and I would rather not have to factory reset my phone if I don't have to right now. I'm mainly posting this because I cannot find anyone online with the same issue that I am having. Any help would be appreciated. Personally, I think its an issue with Dalvik-VM. I can attach a copy of my LogCat if needed. Any ideas on my issue? Thanks in advance!

Check your power settings, if you are in economy mode it will mess with your data connection.

I have a paid version of JuiceDefender, it has caused me so many problems I don't even bother to install it anymore.

I also have the same issue, tried a couple basebands and could not fix it. I ended up not using it...

Every once in a while my mobile network or just lte somehow gets turned off and I have to turn it back on, but that's rare.
I tried juIce Defender and also had problems losing my connection so I uninstalled it. Plus the settings were so confusing to me. I'm using Green Power now and that seems fine.
You didn't mention mhs so I assume you're not using it but that has known connection issues.

Did you ever try doing a factory reset? I'm curious to know if that will fix it.

Juice Defender gave me fits, too. I'm not using my phone as a Mobile Hotspot, either.
I kinda think its my ROM. I'll play around with some stuff, or I'll just get around to doing a factory reset and see if that fixes the problem. I'll post any solutions here for others.

Are you in a good 4g area? If you scroll down the general section here, you will find my topic. If you use 3g more than 4g, there is a post in that thread about##778#. It helped me. Sorry if it doesn't help you, Cheers.

I just wanted to let you know that I'm having this problem as well. I AM rooted and running CleanRom, but my daughter has a non rooted Bionic, and both of us suffered a complete loss of data today. My husband's rooted Rezound is fine.
I took my phone into Verizon today, and after initially just trying to swap out the phone (which I wouldn't allow them to do, it took me too long to get my phone the way I want it), they finally switched out the 4G sim card, and the data came back instantly.
When my daughter leaves school today, she will get her 4G card swapped out as well, and we'll see if it is in fact a network connectivity problem.
It seems to me that our 4G phones has a lot of trouble switching from wifi to 3G/4G service.

I will +1 this. My work WiFi is spotty, and so the phone falls in and out of WiFi. The Rezound HATES that and usually leaves me with no connectivity. There is definitely a WiFi->Mobile Network issue.

Try doing a factory reset. Could be a bad device... Im getting amazing reception on mine. I havent even seen my 3G or 1x icons yet. Constant 4G lock.

Forget what I said, my data connection has been dropped again for the past thirty minutes and there's no way for me to get it back.
I'm going to try a factory reset. I *really* don't want to have to send my phone back because my husband is getting amazing coverage on his Rezound. However, we're still in the first week of our Verizon contract, and if this looks like it will be a standing issue, then we'll have to cancel and go crawling back to horrible Sprint.

I think I'm going to try doing this. How painful was it for you to convince them to give you another SIM Card?
Edit: Just read your last post. Please let me know what a factory reset does for you.

They had no issues at all swapping out my 4G card, they certainly couldn't let me walk out of the store with no signal. They knew they had to try something.
The factory reset on the phone appeared to work. I've been steadily switching it from wifi to data, and the data signal picks up, albeit a tad bit slow. Only thing is, I still don't really get 4g, while my husband's Rezound has a great signal.
I got insurance on the phone, so I'll put up with it as long as I can before I start screaming at Verizon.

Good to hear. I'm going to try to switch out my SIM card today and see if that fixes it. I thought maybe it was something with the ROM, seeing as how my 3G will turn on whenever I need to send an MMS message, so a factory reset made sense to me. I just don't want to do it. Lol. Thanks for the info!

I've experienced it twice in the last 24hrs and it just happened to be right after I installed and used LTE OnOff. Don't know if there might be a connection there. I keep forgetting this phone has the ability to switch 4g/3G unlike the TBolt. Needless to say, that app is no longer on the phone.
KORM via the beast known as the Rezound.

I had an issue with the mobile network just dropping in and out (other people in the room did not lose signal). We currently don't have 4G and it is 3G only. I did a factory reset of the phone, but it continued to occur. Took the phone back to Verizon store to exchange it (it was 1 week old). At first they weren't going to and gave me a run around but in the end exchanged it. Have had no problems with new phone.

My girlfriend's Bionic keeps dropping 4G more frequently than my Rezound. I get this problem too though. Usually a toggle of Airplane Mode fixes it...but it's pretty damn annoying. Happens once or twice a day!

A Factory Reset fixed it. Everything went smoothly, too. I backed up all my SMS Messages with HTC's Messaging app, and got my network back as soon as I restored it and set everything back up. Hopefully this will help anyone else who might have had the same problem.

I've been side by side with a fresh Rezound and watched both of them jump from 4g to 1x to 3g and sometimes never 3g. The problems were a million times worse with my droid charge as it's a combination of the handsets and the towers.

Hmmm
I have this happen if I am in an area with NO signal (such as the basement level of my office building) for long time. Only a reboot will bring back data. Does not happen often (maybe 2ce in a month and a half).
I am intrigued by the person who blames the install of LTEOnOff. I have it installed but do not use it. Maybe if I ever have to hard reset (such as if ever run the unlock), I will not reinstall that program.

No data connection

Just got my tb last night and right away loved it. After playing with it and getting a brief chance to play with the 4g I turned off the 4g since I was just outside the 4g coverage of philly. I did the *#*#4636#*#* method, idk if that matters.
Anyways, I was using wifi then for like an hour, turned wifi off, and since then I haven't been able to get 1x,3g or even 4g (when I tried turning it back on). what gives? is this another "outage" or is there something possibly wrong with my tb? when they went to activate it last night it did take several tries to find the network.
I believe there are issues currently, but I factory data reset will get your data back
I just got mine yesterday, I haven't turned on wifi yet. but my data doesn't work often already. I checked the status and it says data connection failed.
I'm already getting disappointed with my tb =[
every time, the data doesn't work, I turned my phone off and back on then it works.
oh, one time I tried to restart it, and if froze after the thunderbolt logo and the sound comes on. sigh*
I've done restart and tried airplane mode numerous times and neither worked. Haven't tried factory reset yet, if I get bored at work today I'll give that a shot. Thanks. Wasn't sure if it was just mine or a common problem.
Same data issue here got mine yesterday too hmmm what gives.
Anyway no point returning the phone for such a small issue that will be fixed in the future with updates.

Just rebooted the phone and data goes away, went to secret menu, press hard key menu turn off data connection off, turned off radio, waited for it to go off, turned back on, waited for it to come on then turned data on, then it worked.
Btw, if you live in an area with good 4g, leave it on lte only if not just 3g, the switching is what mess things up

I struggle with the same issues in Philly. The day I got the TB I had no service, I did a reset, pulled the battery, and then spent three hours on the phone with tech support. Eventually I ended up tethering to my Evo, connecting the market, and downloading an app called "restart connections." It works very well.
On the plus side, you don't even have to power down the device when you use it.
Just thought I'd let you know about it, as it's much easier and more convenient.
There have been multiple threads saying that the verizon network is currently having issues. They are fixing out as fast as they can. Any factory resets or apps that rest your connection are just good chance timing.
Reset your APN settings back to default.
I'm right outside Philly........... No problems since Wednesday, could not TXT......... I fixed by pulling the battery off while the phone still on...... it worked for me...
I called tech support today and the were very helpful !! Lol I couldn't believe it. He reset my data from there end and had me factory reset my phone and I'm running great now. My signal is much better as well.

So has anyone found a solution that doesn't require a hard reset? I have two friends with this problem, they can get 4G but not 3G. We have tried battery pulls, changing to 3G only mode, reseting the APNs, airplane mode and nothing fixes it. I don't want to tell them to hard reset only to have the problem come right back. It sounds like there is a major 3G provisioning issue with this phone and with no *228 there doesn't seem to be an easy way to fix it unless anyone has other ideas.
I've been experiencing the same issue. I called up. Hard reset failed, I also tried toggling data on/off and turning airplane mode on/off.
Of course, did the normal battery pull and reseat the SIM.
... Standing by with VZW on the phone to figure this out....
In the meantime, flashing a new ROM
just turned data on and off and i now have 1x, better than nothing, right
I just got off the phone with Verizon as my two Thunderbolts stopped getting any 3G data since Friday evening. Apparently this is a known provisioning issue and they are working on it. No need to hard reset. The rep herself had the same problem with her Thunderbolt too. Apparently they hope to have it fixed by later tonight. So many 4G issues, wondering if I should have waited a few more weeks...
I've seen this a couple of times today in my store. The only really working solutions is a hard reset and reload. It is a 3G provisioning issue because it doesn't have the standard *228 provisioning option. Not sure how VZW plans to fix.
thanks please keep up posted if you hear more.
There appears to be a work-around the issue...

4g works but switching to 3g/1x doesn't seem to

Hello Just wanted to say thank you to all the peope who support this awesome website.
I got my TBolt yesterday and i know people have said they have had weird reception for 4g and what not. Luckily my house is in the center of a 4g area so in my house i have had perfect 4g coverage but today i went to town and i looked like it was trying to switch from 3g, 1x, or 4g but unsuccefully as it would only stay for a few seconds then disapear. Does this have to do with Verizon problems? if not what should i do?
Thanks
I was having the same issues going back to 3G from 4G. I would get no icons on the top of the screen and could only make phone calls. Tech support had me do a factory restore and that fixed it right away. Very annoying for sure to have to set up your phone all over again. If this keeps happening I'm not sure I will keep the phone. I am not about to factory reset every time this network handoff issue occurs.
Tech support told me they are working on a fix and I don't need to hard reset it yet. To me its silly to hard reset if its just going to happen again.
i was having similar issues and tech support had me take out the battery for a min and then put it back in and boot up and i had 3g back
Battery pull didn't work for me...
thanks guys battery pull seemed to work well!
Local VZW store said a national tech support email went out this afternoon regarding TB problems switching and dropping data. Email said the fix is on the network side and the phones have to be hard reset after 1PM mountain time to be fixed. Sounds fishy, but maybe worth a try.
I saw this linked in another thread. I take no credit for it.
http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc...blems-3g-data-dont-hard-reset-read-first.html
It helped me a little bit with my sporadic 3G connections here at work.
It appears vzw's eHPRD's network is down which is why data has been dropping once a tbolt is out of LTE coverage.
Use the ##778# menu (hit call after ##778#)-->password is 000000-->modem settings-->Rev A-->choose enable-->hit the menu button on the tbolt and commit changes
This is from the androidcentral forums. I can't post links yet, but a quick search over there will reveal the specifics.
This forces the device to use EVDO instead of eHPRD so you'll lose simultaneous voice/data, but at least if you're not in LTE coverage you'll get data. The device will still connect to LTE if it's available.
This worked on my device and my wife's.
I noticed that even in some areas of the same city that this network error is causing no access to 3g. I tested it by following the guide and sure enough the 1x switched to 3G. I hope Verizon gets this up and running. I think this is also causing calls to drop.

God Dam ****ing verizon biooootch, angered me so much saying i couldnt get on 3g because I voided my warranty by doing *#*#4636#*#* and shutting of LTE. OMG I wanted to punch her through the phone.
I've been having an issue and I don't know if it's related, but it sounds like it.
I've been turning my phone to "CDMA auto (PRL)" whenever I go out for the day to conserve battery. But there's this one place that seems to disconnect me whenever I go. It's happened twice now, but when I go there, I lose data service and can't manage to get it back even after switching to 4G. The first time it happened, it was out from about 11pm to 3am. Today, though, I switched it to 4G and it came back, along with 3G.
Now, the problem here is that my girlfriend's Thunderbolt is fine during all of this. I'll lose 3G, but hers will stay connected even though we'll be in the same location. I don't understand what would be different about mine than hers. :S
Hey DJComent try pinggolf12's fix it worked for me.

My data just cuts out... Any suggestions?

So, I live in a prime 4G area. NO issues and almost always full bars. I have had both a Samsung Charge and a Droid Bionic. Both phones didn't give me the same problems this phone has started. I'll be on my phone looking on the net or Youtube when... I lose all data. I can make calls and texts, but data is gone. I don't even get 3G, and I tried that stupid LTE switch.
My only fix is to go into Airplane mode and/or do a full reset to get it back up. Is this isolated or have you guys seen this too?

I've seen this on both the bolt and the rezound and heard of it on the other 4g devices. Think its a new tech, lte problem...
I'm in the greater LA area too and I noticed this issue happen to me twice this weekend. I either lost all data or it went to 1x. I had to restart to get it back. My girlfriend who has a Bionic on the other hand did not lose connection while next to me.
I get this often as well. Unfortunately, I live in a 3g area and can't really comment on the 4g data problem.

[Q] Losing signal on my Amaze 4G

Okay, here is my problem: Every once in a while I will completely lose all signal on my phone. It wont pick up 2G, 4G, nothing. Wifi and bluetooth both seem to work though just fine. I've searched and haven't found anyone with the same issues so I'm wondering if it's just my phone or if nobody has commented on it. I first noticed this about two weeks ago, when my phone refused to find service. I was stuck with the little X next to the signal meter. I figured I was just in an area with poor service and didn't think much of it. An hour later, still, no service. This time I went outside where I know I have good 4G service and nothing for 5 minutes. I enabled airplane mode and disabled it, still nothing. Turned the phone off and back on as a last resort. Still nothing. I ended up finishing the day with wifi calling as that still worked. Sometime later my phone began receiving service again so I thought it was a fluke issue.
Then, just yesterday the same thing happened. This was when I rebooted my phone (which bypasses the fastboot feature) and service was restored right away. I called T-mobile and they said there weren't any network issues in my area and they had never heard of this issue before on the Amaze.
So, this is where I'm asking if anyone has heard of this before. I'm running a stock ROM and it hasn't been rooted. Thanks for any comments!
This might help just a touch. I do live in an area with decent service but my couch and bedroom are deadzones for some odd reason. I bought these signal boosters for 2 bucks figuring "what the hell, I'll give it a shot". No more dead zones, and data went from E to G. Not a miracle worker but for a couple bucks it keeps a signal at least.

Wireless Coverage
I have 2 brand new Amaze 4G for a few months now and had no problem with the coverage. I know the coverage is good with full signal bars and have not found any issue with coverage.
Sometimes, different phones have different received signal sensitivity. Also depends on user behavior. If you are always using a handsfree device (cable or BT) and your phone is in a bag, then your coverage is reduced by your action. The best coverage you can ever get is when you have line of sight (unobstructed) to the cell towers.
There are a few issues with your problem:
1-Poor inbuilding coverage
2-Poor coverage in your area
3-Network optimization issue
4-Hardware issue
If you are going from 1 bar to no bar, then most likely you have coverage issue. You lost signal since the level is already very low.
If you are going from full bar to no bar, you might have hardware or network optimization issue. Try your phone is the city or area with known good coverage first. If the behavior persists, then you have phone problem.
I used to manage wireless network for carriers.
same issue
I've had the exact same thing happen to me. Red x, no signal except wifi, in places where signal is not normally an issue. Battery pull doesn't work, return to signal seems arbitrary. Had the same thing happen with my Desire. I have no answers, but you are not alone.
Yup, it happened with my first Amaze. I got it back in January and started playing with it - rooting, custom ROMs, etc. Then later that day, the signal just died on me. I thought I must've screwed something up, so I flashed back to everything stock. No luck. I waited for half a day, then it randomly started working again at night.
You probably noticed tha tI said that happened with my first amaze. That's because after that signal issue, I discovered that my camera stopped working. I returned it to T-Mobile and they sent me another one. This one is working great though.
Well thank you for all the input so far. Id like to say that this isn't my first cell phone and I'm not new to weak or poor signal areas, especially from T-mobile. I was using my phone at work at the time, which has anywhere from no signal to 3 bars depending on where you are. This wasn't one of the cases that I was standing in a dead zone when I checked my phone. I had no signal for several hours, including over 30 minutes of standing outside trying everything I could think of. I have had excellent signal outside in the past, exactly where I was "Hiding". I got the Amaze because I was tired of playing with my old HD2 and having to work around bugs and possibly not receiving calls. So far, I'm not happy that the radio seems to quit responding all together and leaves me without a phone (minus the wifi calling but I'm not always around a hotspot).
I also experienced a dramatic signal loss at home, going from full signal strength to maybe one bar right around the time that I first had issues. I don't know if this is related or if this is a completely different thing.
I am 99% sure this is an error with the phone - probably software related with the radio driver(s) or radio firmware. I guess I will try taking it back to T-mobile and seeing if they could exchange it for a new one. I was just really wanting to avoid that as I finally got my phone setup how I like it. Again, Thank you for the input and let me know if you are having the same problem or if you know of a solution.
I am on my third Amaze and also tried a Galaxy SII X due to the same problem at my home. Even the Samsung did the same thing. In my house and especially in the driveway, the signal varies wildly between -85dbm to as low as -111dbm. The frustrating thing is once it loses the signal, it doesn't seem to reacquire it without a reboot.
I'm with Telus, and they said they will check on it, but I'm not holding my breath. In my immediate area, outside my house, the signal isn't great, but it will usually hang on. I have been to different cities, and all has been well with it. Coming from a rock steady 2G Touch Pro II, I am disappointed as well..
I am new here to this site, but I am having a similar problem with my Amaze. At work I always have a weak 4G signal, but the last few days it has been gone altogether. I have full phone service (4 bars) but no data. The 4G indicates I have signal, but I can't connect to anything on the web. I called HTC and they had me pull my battery and sim card so they could send a "reset signal" to my phone. After my phone came back up I had faster service than ever, but it only lasted a few minutes and went away again. I am thinking this is a phone issue. Oh, the Amaze is my first Android. My only previous smartphone was my Nokia E71x.
I know if I have WiFi calling selected, an x will show up on my signal if i turn WiFi on. I've personally only had slow data in the area I work. I blame it on the fact that it is a busy corporate park with lots of hotels, cuz my signal is fine elsewhere. Try calling tmobile and seeing if they have known tower issues in your area. I know I had that problem with sprint and they sent me a free airave. Maybe tmobile could do something similar if its.a known problem.

It's most likely a network issue. I get the same thing, it will timeout/refresh the network where it will not get a signal for about 30 seconds a few times per day. I blame the network, since the same thing happened to me with my mt4g

Thank you! This fixed it for me. It was happening only today while I had WiFi enabled, it would turn the mobile radio off completely and the box would be grayed out so I was unable to turn it back on. I had my sim updated today to enable wifi calling so after I read your post, I turned the wifi calling off and the mobile radio signal came back immediately. Strange bug.

I was told It's by design. It saved battery life by not constantly searching for a mobile network it won't use (due to wifi calling). It's not like you can hand off the call to the local network. I do notice that if i start walking outside, once my wifi hits a low signal it logs back on the network.

There is actually an option to specify how the WIFI calling works: either all the time or only when cellular signal is gone. Sounds like you have it set to be on all the time. This means that if you have a good WIFI connection, the cellular radio is shut off and all traffic goes through the WIFI calling app. The other option (which I use) only uses wifi calling when there is no cellular signal.
I have lost cellular signal 3 additional times since my last post. Its not just that I'm in a bad spot and I have no signal for 30 seconds. This goes on for 30 minutes or more - up to several hours. I have found that rebooting the phone fixes it as I believe it completely (as much as possible) removes power from the radio and requires it to be completely re-initiated during the reboot. Simply shutting it off doesn't work as the quickboot is enabled and most likely doesn't perform a complete re-initialization of the radio. My only guess at this point is that there is some kind of possible leftover code from development which never was removed from the radio (this happens more times than not). It could be a timeout or simply causing the radio to hang because of 1. excessive heat generation, 2. excessive power drain, 3. buffer overflow, 4. excessive RF transmit power... In any case, one of those issues could trigger an event in the radio to cause it to simply stop responding.
I am in the process of trying to get T-Mobile to get me a new phone as I am outside of the 30-day window. I have also confirmed it with them that this was not a tower issue.
Thanks

Ok, back on topic now, if it's only dropping when you go in your room, then I don't think it's anything wrong with the phone. Not sure who your provider is, but u may be able to call them and have them look up your address and tell you what kind of signal u should get outside your house, and what to expect inside your house. I know t-mobile does at least

Has anyone found a solid solution for this? I was able to pick up a amaze for 50 bucks off of craigslist. But I can't get it to connect to mobile net work. A T-Mobile employee told me to root it, but I'm trying not to cause it's not for me.

Well your situation is a little different than other peoples in this thread if u can't connect al all. Ok wait so first off, it won't connect to a network at all? AND you only paid 50 bucks for it...? Sounds a little fishy to me bud, why did he say he was selling it...?
Next thing, I don't know why a t-mo rep would tell you to root the phone, rooting has no effect on your signal strength or your ability to connect to a network.
And lastly, is the phone a T-Mobile branded amaze owhat carrierr...? and will it not connect at all, period, or can u make calls just not data...?

It's a known bug in our phone
Just wipe cash & dalvic cash
Even more convenient should be with this:

If the normal connection won't restore after the wiping cash & dalvik cash, you probably have to consider this awesome app:

[Q] 4G connection but no data

For the past 4 days or so my phone has been able to "connect" to the 4G network but I cannot receive data over it. However when I switch the phone to 3G only data works flawlessly. Calls and SMS works fine but the browser and any apps that use data say no connection. The connection icon is grey instead of blue.
I've been running CM7.1 on the thunderbolt just fine for months but I decided to use another ROM just to be sure. Put thundershed 1.6 on today and for a while 4G worked but it died again. was using radios 1.48.00.0906w_1, 0.01.78.0906w_1. Thought it may be a problem with those so I flashed the just-released 1.49.00.0406w_1, 0.01.79.0331w_1. No change.
I've gone through all the other troubleshooting steps too, hard/soft reset, battery pull. reseat SIM card, toggle airplane mode, switch off the LTE radio, etc. Called verizon and they confirmed I have a recent PRL.
Anybody have thoughts as to how I can fix this?
i've been getting in and out data connection with the newest radio on my thunderbolt atm...i'm starting to wonder if its the phone itself
I don't think its anything we can fix ourselves. So many people are having problems similar to this that it must be verizon. I had exactly the same problem you are talking about and I can get it to straighten out by turning airplane mode and taking it back out.

I really hope it is verizon and not my phone, but I've talked to them probably 3 times in the past 2 days and no one has even hinted that they are having network problems.
So right now I guess I just have to wait it out. Man I hate streaming music over 3g...

Update on the situation - My 4G data is back after about a week.
Looks like I was temp banned from Verizons 4G for using too much of my unlimited plan. Can anyone confirm this happening to other people?
Thats what I suspect at least, it could be a coincidence and their 4G tower in my area was broken for almost exactly a week.
