I'm using 2.06 with radio 1.27 and it's been working great, but for some reason it's being really quirky the last week or so. I have two things going on. Some times the phone looks like it's working fine but I stop receiving email divia direct push, and cingular's xpress mail stops working too. I just think I haven't received new email, but then I find out someone emailed me and I didn't get it... so I reset the phone and when it reboots, I start receiving email again. Other times it just refuses to connect to any data services and I'll even get a pop up saying there is a problem with my GPRS connection and nothing will work until I reset it. I have to reboot the phone on a daily basis now or it'll stop getting email.. I haven't installed anything new or changed any settings, so I'm at a loss for what might be going on. Anyone else having this problem?

Since flashing my phone last week, I've had problems with both my work email (synced through an exchange server) and Gmail. 15 minutes or so after being turned on, email no longer works. Although Activesync claims it is connected to the exchange server, it won't sync and manually pressing "sync" does nothing. Gmail won't send or receive email either, and if I click the menu button I see "Stop Send/Receive" as if it is syncing but if I click that it just says "Disconnecting...". The only way to fix this is to soft reset the phone, at which point everything syncs just fine when it starts back up, but 15 minutes later I have the same problem. Internet works fine....running dcd 4.1.2. I've reflashed several times, done a hard reset....nothing seems to fix this. Anyone experienced this issue and know how to resolve it?
ou try reflashing just for the hell of it? And which ROM/Radio did you flash it with?
Yeah I reflashed several times. I was using dcd 3.3.4 when the problem started. I've done hard resets, reflashed, upgraded today to dcd 4.1.2 to see if the problem would go away, but no luck so far. I can access the internet, but the email syncing just seems to stop working after a few minutes and I'm forced to do a soft reset to get it to sync. Perhaps not just an email problem, as my weather program (Pocket Weather) can't seem to connect either when the email stops connecting. Any ideas?
Oh and radio version is 3.42.50....
I have a problem with my SGS2 : Push notifications (Gmail, chrome-to-phone...) work when I just started the phone, but then they stop working after a few minutes.
Then if I reboot it works fine again, and stops working 20 minutes later.
I'm running XWKE2, rooted, and I have frozen a bunch of samsung apps with Titanium backup. Does anyone have any idea where it might come from ?
Thanx !
OK, I'm now on XWKE7 rooted and I kept all the samsung apps but nothing changed, I still can't rely on push notifications at all (sometimes they work fine, most of the time not at all, and sometimes they arrive late).
Also, and I think it is linked, Gtalk doesn't really work either : It will show all my contacts as offline when they're obviously not, and sometimes when I send a message to a contact (s)he will suddenly appear as online, or my message never gets sent. Same for messages sent to me, sometimes they work and sometimes they get lost.
It happens on Wifi, 2G or 3G.
I'm going back to my Nexus One for now but it's hard... The screen seems really small now that I'm used to the SGS2 ^^
Still no solution... Any idea ?
Hello guys, I would have posted this directly to the MROM thread but I can't due to not having 10 posts....so I'm posting here and hoping somebody can help me or draw attention from someone in that thread that is running this rom. I'm having a few issues with this ROM that are leaving me unable to use my phone at times and others that are just annoying.
[ROM] MROM-Olympus [CM7] build:20130330
Problems with the Phone function:
1. The biggest problem for me is sometimes trying to dial or receive calls stops working, and you don't know this, when everything else on the phone is functioning fine. A reboot will allow the phone to be able to dial out and receive calls once again. I have not noticed any patterns ...just when I get ready to make a phone call it says "dialing" and then after a few seconds a beep and it hangs up. Also as noted when this happens I'm unable to receive calls and everyone gets my voice mail. It was doing this after a install and without anything else being installed...I do feel that it's gotten worse as in happening more often but that could just be my frustration making it seem that way.
2. Another phone issue since day one: Sometimes after dialing a number the screen goes off and pressing the power button may or may not bring the screen back on or if it does the screen comes on for a split second then goes back off. It's impossible to end a call this way or to enable speaker phone, look up contacts. When it's functioning correctly a call is made then the screen goes off when i place the phone close to my ear and comes back on when i take it away. A reboot fixes this issue usually for awhile, I've also had to take the battery out twice because the power button did nothing.
Problems with the wifi tethering function:
3. Wifi tethering works but I've noticed problems on upstream packets. On 4G the phone can hit 5-6 Mbps down and 1.5 Mbps up on T-mobile. I've ran test via "speedtest dot net" which they have an android app so you can test your data speed right from the phone. Now when I connect "wifi tether" my computer to it and run the test from the computer I get the 5-6 Mbps down but the upload test takes forever to start and when it does I usually get anything from 25-220 Kbps. I performed this from linux, windows and an android tablet ..all report slow upload speeds while the phone directly running the same tests get very good performance. I'm wondering if this could be a issue with the wifi driver or possible kernel issue of sorts.
I choose this rom because from what I read it was one of the most stable and everything on the phone works which is the most important thing to me.
Thanks in advance!
Happened again today, phone uptime was 17hrs. I'd made a few phone calls and received one, pulled the phone out of my pocket to make another latter and it did it's thing where it says dialing .....a few seconds then the beep like when you hangup and then back to the contacts. I checked this time the status and it showed in service and data connected. I was also able to txt and browse the internet just not make or receive calls until a reboot.
Hey guys,
As of yesterday, my phone's email client will no longer work over LTE. It's very strange, I can not setup the Office365 account over LTE (I get an error telling me that the device "cant connect to the server", but as soon as I switch on my WiFi, the account sets up perfectly fine.
Continuing, if I turn off wifi after the account is set up, and try and refresh my email, I get an "Internal Error" that pops up with an option to report that seemingly does nothing. Turning wifi back on clears the issue and my phone's email works again.
I am currently using CloudMagic, which sets up and runs perfectly fine over LTE and wifi, so I don't think that the issue has anything to do with the server. I am absolutely baffled as to whats going on here and I would seriously appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks
I hate to bump this but does anyone have any ideas? I odin'd back to stock and the same thing is happening. I'm beginning to wonder if the school messed with our email over spring break.
Seems like over the past week or two, I am routinely getting errors when sending texts. Sometimes it is an MMS, other times a text to a single recipient.
Sometimes it happens, other times not. Happens on Wifi, and when in data.
If I reboot, it usually fixes it, but only for a short while.
it happens with both the Samsung Messages app, as well as the Google app.
Any ideas that don't involve hard reset of the phone? No other issues, just texts...

Having the same issue here. It seems to have appeared with this last update and is now occuring about every other text (outgoing only). I have so far been able to "tap to retry" and it sends after that but the fact that its even happening at all makes me hate this phone even more.
