since I upgraded through kies mini to froyo 2.2 on my vibrant my data speed went from 200-400 kBps to 10-40 Kbps. huge decrease in data speed. the update gave me ka6 modem. ive tried flashing to ka7 and currently have kb1. anyone know how i can get my data speed back up?
data speed decrease after 2.1
i know others have this issue since ive been reading. i called t mobile yesterday and they said they didnt know anything about this but the rep found many people on their and other sites that have this problem.
no one seems to have a solution. ive done everything from hard reseting, factory resetting, odin and reupdating, trying every modem/kernal i can find, different roms, tweaks, every POSSIBLE thing i can think of or has been recommended.
anyone know how to fix this? this is my second vibrant and it is still happening (its not a 4g, its a 3g).
PLEASE HELP ME?
you sure you're not throttled?

Hello everyone.
I would like to see if anyone may be experiencing the same issue and if anyone may have found a cure.
I am experiencing data drops on all roms. After a fresh install the rom works perfectly. Sometimes for a day sometimes for several days I will experience no problems. After a time I will no longer have any data connection at all, the 3G or H symbol is there but no activity. I have rebooted, reflashed modems, turned phone off in airplane modes, and toggled data. Sometimes this works but for the most part it is only temporary. I have experienced this problem on Trigger, Bionix, flagship, loki, and now stock jfd. I dont know what else to do. Is there a way I could have messed up the hardware of the phone? Any suggestions?
(I experience this in many different areas, as to rule out just poor reception, I will often have full signal with no data.)
Thanks,
I did have this on Axura and TW Roms.
I moved to Trigger and did a clean install, no issues at all with data drops since.
You can toggle airplane mode on/off.
You can toggle airplane mode on/off.[/QUOTE]
Trigger did last the longest before data dropped, about 3 days. I try toggling airplane on and off several times. When my data drops its off for hours I have even waited a whole day then I usually end op relashing back to stock and starting over. I stayed at JFD for 1 day and data dropped so im confused.
thanks for response!!
If it were me, this is unacceptable.
I would verify no issues with T-Mo (data cap/bill issue)
Assuming that is fine, I would make a copy of both internal/external to my pc, after a nandroid and Titanium backup was made.
I would then format both internal/external memory cards.
I would then power off and get use ODIN to JFD.... root.... cwr... flash your fav rom (maybe trigger final since you said you had the best luck with it).
I really doubt you would have trouble after doing this.
Ill give this a try tonight when i have access to odin. Thnaks for all your help.
Did you ever overclock the phone ? the heat potential of overclocking can have some bad effects on the circuitry. Either way I would get to Stock and do a warranty replacement on it.

I have overclocked the phone but never really thought about that as a potential problem. The problem is intermittent; it works fine after a flash but then drops off as i use the device. Would this cause the same issues??
Once again Data has dropped from Trigger 2.7 edt. I dont get it. There has to be some kind of hardware issue. Ive had full data from my last post 2 days ago.
I am not at data cap limit, and I have paid my bill. Data was just working 2 min ago, phone started to lag, rebooted now no data. I have flashed KA6 and KB1 modems twice each, rebooted in flight mode, toggled data 10 + times.
Anyone with any other suggestions before I turn this bad boi in??
thanks,
Just Saturday, my data be it 3g or WiFi was fine, running smooth, I was gettin 10+ Mbps down and 1.15ish up on wifi/4-5Mbps down and .8-.9 up on 3g. I was on Bionix 1.3.1 and figured maybe it was just something I had done on accident, so I flash Trigger 2.8 (First Non-TW Rom) and I like it, but the problem is still there. I go back to JFD after formatting sdcard, system, and data thinking this would surely fix whatever was going on.
The problem is if I turn my data off and back on, it will be ok, long enough to open a page or do a speed test. After that, on 3g if im able to even tether to my pc, its barely over .3-.4Mb down and it literally says "upload speed- LOL" and when im on wifi, I get 10-11Mb down and 1ish up and on my phone its like its capped around 5Mb down.
I dont think theres any reason for me to be "capped" or cut off or whatever. I have unlimited everything, I just checked and my billing cycle is up in 3 days and Ive used 535Mb, which I probably use alot more, but Im always on WiFi for the most part. Also, 0 downloads, because I dont download stuff on my phone directly, for whatever reason...gives me something to do I guess, lol. I also had every 2/2 flashable modem there and tried them all, along with the KB1 and KB7 stock+voodoo kernels, and the tigers blood 2.2 and overstock 1.5.
Lastly, I seen the thread about changing DNS servers, and Ive changed to both and back to normal and tried with both WiFi/3g and its like theres a invisible anti-data pro-signal/herpes thing around my phone that, clearly from the name is anti data and gives any signal dataherpes, and if someone gave me herpes, I probably wouldnt come back. Hence, whats going on here.
Really though, any help would be appreciated, greatly.
Also, just realized the way I worded it might seem to some people like Im blaming it on the ROM, and Im definitely not blaming it on anyone or anything, because chances are, its probably something I did. lol
Another thing I should mention, is when it is connected to any data like 3g, it constantly flip flops between '3G' and 'H'
Try flashing the KB1 or KA6 modem see if that resolves. If it does not then it could be just a quirk from the flash and reflash. Also, the 3G to H doesn't matter it is just an icon switching that just says that it recognizes a tower that sending that signal, the modem on the phone will still only receive 3g
I got my vibrant back in september, and since then the data speeds have dropped significantly.
I remember being able to reach around 10-13 mb/s on wifi and around 4 or 5 on 3g.
now I'm lucky to reach 6mb on wifi, and 3g is rarely above 1.5/s
has this happened to anyone else? any tips on how I could fix it?
I'm running cm7 with kb5 more

im noticing this toooo!!
i've always had the hybrid case on it, but i have dropped the phone a handful of times from 2-3 feet off the ground. is that possible that i messed up the phones hardware? or anyone know if its possible to buy a replacement part?

There are codes to change settings for your data settings on the phone, have you tweaked those?

Are you talking about the codes that you can see from using SGS Tools? If so, I haven't messed with those.
Only thing I've changed manually sometimes are the APN settings, since randomly the T-Mobile US one liked to disappear on me before. But I checked online and the APN settings are fine.
Which cm7 nightly are you using?
currently on #26, but it might be cm7 as a whole. i don't remember my data speeds on cm being as good as they were on Team Whiskey's roms, and seemed like stock jfd/touchwiz data when i first got the vibrant were the best.
any ideas?
Hi there
long time reader first time poster here...
searched and found nothing...
running the latest gingerbread AT&T official on a AT&T atrix (currently unlocked and running on the Rogers network in canada)
i seem to be having an issue with my Atrix lately(or at least been noticing).... normally when i am connected to the data networks fine, my signal meter and H+ are is blue...
what has been happening is if i leave the phone alone for some time (usually 20+), it just disconnects from the data services... all my signal meter and H+ meter turns grey... when i "wake" the device it takes a couple seconds to kick back to blue... when this is going on i go into my gtalk and i see it had signed me out and that its trying to sign me back in.... same thing with alot of other apps, like my issimo app, its been sign out, or hasnt received any new updates since it turned "grey".
how do i stop this? is this a bug? something wrong with the OS? will i have to reflash?
any thoughts on this would be appreciated!
thanks!
UPDATE:
had battery save mode on nighttime, so i thought that was the issue... so i changed it to performance and doing that had no effect at all... still losing data after a while of it being locked...
any ideas? could this maybe be some residual affects from a battery saver app i add?
i really would not like to reload the OS...
anyone got any ideas?
i'm finding any solution for the same problem, some atrix lose data signal, motorola says that is a software problem but i dont find a fix for that yet, any idea?
It's a software issue on Motorola's end. I'm having the same problem. I haven't flashed a custom ROM yet, but my friend had the same problem and he said when he flashed Gingerblur it was fixed.
when i seemed to notice it was when i had upgraded to gingerbread... so what i simply did was deleted my APN, rebooted and entered in the APN again, and that seemed to have solved it
@OP I don't use GTalk so I can't comment on that, but the signal than that you described is EXACTLY what my SGS does running on stock Froyo rooted.
I don't know if its more battery saving or what, but I tend to miss more calls in weaker signal areas when my phone has been on idle for a while.
I too am looking for a fix because of that. Also my Atrix sometimes acts the same way on Froyo, but I haven't used my Atrix in a while...

kinda still having the issues but i have been dealing with it and trying out different ROMs to see if those are any help at all... so far its intermittent
Same kinda style here ..
When i am on my mobile data it's fine , but as soon as i connect to a wi-fi it become grey and no more data (mobile/wireless) is working ...
Tried many ROMS , Radios , all the same...
That new leaked radio they got doesn't work here in Bakersfield the 1.77.36p
Shoot I was lucky to get 00.04 mbps download and 00.01 upload
When I reflashed the previous radio I got 05.00down 2 up mbps much better one
1.7730p but It may make the phone run warmer

Yes I found this to be true as well. The new radio (1.77.36) dropped signal for me often and the speeds were lower than with 1.77.30

why not upgrade your radios to the latest AT&T has to offer? 1.97.00 see if that helps?
im having the same issue
anyone knows why this is happening? i have cyanogemod 7, i reflashed the phone, and when it started i restored but the problem just keep going
I have a very similar problem. When the H+ is lit up blue I have a network connection. But it will switch to grey then internet ect stops working ..still have signal (4 bars) any ideas why it keeps switching?
I've had the same issue ever since I first got my atrix. I've tried many different roms and it does it with every one. Ill have great signal n my browser will direct my to a no data connection page. I have to reboot or turn airplane mode off n on to get it going again. I have like a month left on my warranty gonna try n swap it out n see if a different one will fix the problem
So i have a verizon fascinate and am currently running cm7. (first tried the stable release but niw a nightly). Im eeally liking cm, but since i got it my battery life is garbage. Basically the drain seems to come from either the android os sercice or cell standby. Whenever i leave my phone inactive for a while, when i wake it up the battery has dropped a lot and tge phone is very warm. I have been modding this phone for a while, but im no android programmer. Purely based on the forum searchi. G ive done on the issue, it seemsblike cm7 has an issue with my modem or radio.
Extra info: my 3g/2g signals seem fine (always 0% time without signal). Wifi connectivity seems fine. Im also running glitch's kernal altho the problem has persisted with and without it (i did do a kernel cleaning first). I used the "go from anything to jb vanilla" guide cuz i was having issues switching to mtd at first (sry dont have a link rite now but it was on xda) . I get occassional force closes, but not really a problem. When i did a titanium back up, the very first time i flashed cm7 i Did restore system settings, but i did not do that every time since then. Ive done a fresh flash of the stable mod around 3 times trying different stuff, but this one is niggtly as i said, and each has had this issue.
If looked around a lot, and wgile this seems common, no one has posted a consistent solution or explanation to the problem, so thats what im looking for.

You could flash jt's vanilla gb rom. That has good battery life.

I have had the standby battery drain on every CM7 version and Kernel tried so far including 7.1 stable,7.0 nightlies,JT's Vanilla,and PoolParty. It's even worse if I shut phone down and don't plug in. It will drop 50 to 75% overnight with phone not on?
Has done it with undervolting,overclocking,and voltage control not even installed. This is first time I have seen others having similiar issues.
I think this is a known issue for all MTD roms on the fascinate, if I'm not mistaken.

I lose only 5% to 10% overnight on CM7 never really notice how much on MIUI cause I never ran it long enough. I guess every phone would behave differently for MTD's or maybe you have an app or mulitple ones that refreshes frequently(Fancy Widget comes to mind).
Well that really sucks, because i do enjoy cm7. But this also means if i go back to a touchwiz configuration like stock dl09 i shouldnt have these issues right?
But before that, has anyone who had these issues tried anything (ie kernels or maybe standby mode power conservation setting, etc... ) that have at least noticeably improved your battery life? Right now mines pretty unbearable (im talking 8hrs while on but totally inactive), but if i can get it up a little i might b able to manage.

I am also experiencing poor battery life. I just flashed 7.1.0 yesterday and absolutely love it. Was using com rom for a few months, but a friend said to try out cwm 7. I used to get about 6 - 8 hours of Pandora while at work and today I only got about 4 before my phone shut off. I'm going to try completely killing battery and charge with phone off tonight an see if it's any better tomorrow.
Any other suggestions? I'm not a noob when it comes to custom roms and flashing (I used to flash the **** out of my G1) but there may have been something I over looked when switching to cwm7. I wiped everything a few times before flashing including battery stats and dalvic.
My battery life is actually really good. Running latest nighty, undervolted -75 across the board,stock kernel, and no overclocking.
Just can't figure why I lose 50-75% of battery overnight when phone is shut down and not charging?
I have the same issue with CM7.1, turning phone of at 80% battery at night to find it at 25% at morning
Is there knows solution?
