OK,... This does not sound right!!!
What happens when you long press your power button, as if to turn it off?
Do you get the option for "Mobile Data" come up?
I think we're just overlooking something.

Having intermittent problems with my mobile internet and was wondering if it was the phone, other users or just plain crap signal.
Have anything between 2 to 5 bars here, hsdpa symbol on constantly but for some reason it occasionally gets stuck on the upload arrow and then the data connection freezes and wont come back on til I toggle mobile network or airplane mode.
Phone is running modaco 2.2c and latest radio on T-Mobile UK.
Hi. Been lurking around since I got my Hero, and thought it was about time I signed up to this excellent forum.
I was having exactly the same problem. Didn't know whether it was a problem with the Hero or the network/signal. I noticed that the APN settings on my Hero were different to the t-mobile site. I read around a bit and tried a few combinations of settings and eventually got it sussed.
Go to t-mobile.co.uk
Hover over "Help & Support" at the top and click "Phone Support". Click "Make the most of your mobile" and choose the G2.
Click on "Set up the phone for internet surfing" and enter the details shown there exactly in a new APN on your Hero.
The only change to those details is the password should be "pass".
This is the only APN setting i have tried that doesn't give me the original problem. Now I can browse without the 3g signal getting "stuck"
I'm using an unlocked Hero - completely stock btw.
Hope this helps. Let me know how you get on.
I've been having this very problem. That's good information, I'll give it a try.
Seems to work well. Here's the link.
thanks for pointing me there.
k i altered my settings, will test it thru day see if it improves.
Ooh, seems to be working so far. Seems I owe you a beer. Lol.
After a day or two using this 'fix' I find it the drop still happens sometimes but not as often.

Did you change the password to "pass" ? That is the most important bit.
Changed the password lets see what happens.

No. That's not the password given on the T-Mobile site.
hey guys a mate of mine was asking me for help today about his s2 as i have one too.
anyway i cant help him so i said id ask on here for him.
heres the description of the problem he gave me.
Having a few problems with the galaxy s2, main problem and the most frustrating one is a background data issue where it just doesn't seem to update constantly enough. I use whatsapp, wordfeud, google talk and a few other applications which require the "Use packet data" box to be ticked in the phones settings. Regardless of wether i'm on wifi or 3g it seems to randomly update sometimes hours late... How ever if I untick the "Use packet data" box then re-tick it, the messages come straight through.
This would be fine as I can accept a minor delay but sometimes it's days at a time... I've changed firmware versions through pretty much all samsung have for the phone and all have the same issue for me.
he is on orange uk network.
running. 2.3.3
basband: I9100XXKE7
build number:GINGERBREAD.XWKF3
any ideas or thoughts would be helpful.
thanks.

I think some apps are not updating automatically or late for some reason, i was trying to find the cause too;/ I can live with it though mate, it may have something to do with the launcher.. Do a complete wipe and reflash of the rom and test again, if it still persists try using launcher pro, hopefully the first method will work though
bump anyone any ideas?
I had the same problem - the reason was, that I 've lost APN.
Therefore just check the APN status by
settings>wireless and network>mobile networks> access point names
if it's empty press left button (for settings) and choose "reset to default"
maybe this helps...
GOOD LUCK!
Peter

Thanks Peter. Resetting to default made the connection work. Thanks alot man
I can't use any app with mobile data, except for dolphin browser. But i can't download anything with them. And in apps like whatsup, google maps, google play store etc. it just says no connection. But when i'm connected to wifi i can use them with no problem. I was looking in the settings but i didn't find anything to fix it. Anybody has some idea?
Thank you.
I had something very similar after flashing a new ROM, Im now on leedroid with no problems so It might be the rom you are using?
unrooted stock rom :/ everything is stock
Try going to settings/phone update/update profile and see if updating your profile helps.
I don't have phone update in the settings :S
Sorry....it should be System Updates
It says that I already have the latest version... but everything worked, I don't know why this happened.
could go into phone programming and reset your data profile
##3282#, edit mode, enter your msl number, data profile, menu, restore.
this code doesn't work for me
I have a dumb question probably, but mobile network is checked in wireless and networks settings right ? And the mobile network settings are right, domestic data and voice should both be checked.
If all that is correct then i would take it to or call sprint and let them fix it. Sounds like an error on their side to me since your phone is stock.
Of course the settings are correct, because I can browse internet. And everything has worked until few days ago.. i don't want to bother with factory reset and that stuff, i'll just wait for ics to come.. if then something won't work then i'll contact htc...
If you go to the phone dialpad, ##3282# doesn't work, then something definately is wrong with your phone.

I dont believe qpst is stock on the 3d. Can't remember tbh. Qpst is required to use ## codes.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
QPST does work on stock. Also, since I work for sprint I would recommend just doing a master reset since this is the first thing they will do when you take it in. Yeah it sucks having to set everything back up, but it will probably fix your issue.
I've just resetted APN's and everything works now!
But I still don't understand why was browsing working, and apps wasn't :S

I was just about to suggest that the APN's weren't correct, or to reset them, so maybe an apology to the person you told "Of course all the settings are correct" !?!?
Simple fix anyway, glad it's working.
If you ever have a problem like this in the future, chances are it's a phone issue, then a network issue then a rom issue, but ultimately a human issue.
Resetting the phone can always rule out the rom, trying another sim can rule out the rom, calling your network can rule out the network, i get issues like this on a daily basis, it's 9 /10 human error.
Oh an just a heads up, quite a few people tried to help you here and you said thanks not once?

Hey ExO
Seems to be you APN settings got changed... if you dont know exact settings.. check with your service provider
OR...
try going to settings --> (Under Wireless and networks) More Settings --> Mobile Network --> Access Point Names/
After you reach the APN's Screen.. press the menu button and click Reset to Default
Let me know after youve tried all the steps
Regards

Oh ok, sorry then, I'm not familiar with that company or if they have special settings like that or where they would be. Doesn't really make sense that it jumps back and forth between data and wifi though without something similar. Why not just turn off wifi when not using it for a temp fix? If you are rooted, you could use Tasker and Secure Settings to just turn wifi on for the locations you want.
