Anyone else experiencing slow data transfer with 2G on O2?
Seemed fine this morning, this afternoon, and this evening has totally slowed down, keeps popping up on the market saying, network error etc!
Anyone else having this issue?
sounds more like an APN settings error.
why are you using 2g?? can't you try 3g?

Hello everybody!
Someone of you has noticed a poor WiFi reception on Hero?
I'm experiencing a poor WiFi reception in my house when Hero is connect to internet thru an access point.
What happen is that after WiFi connection has been established the phone tends to loose it and restart connection thru GSM/3G link.
That happen also if phone stay in the same place without moving around and also when phone is close to access point location.
Any idea about way to solve the problem?
Regards.

Just an upgrade on issue...
If I turn off data connection thru GSM/3G and switch on WiFi seem that WiFi connection is stable so maybe issue come when both data connection are enabled...
Anyway is annoying shout down each time data connection on GSM/3D and power on WiFi!
Regards.
i believe wifi goes idle when not in use. so it connect to 3g or edge. However there is an app if not various in the market already to help keep wifi always on..
Do a search for wifi and see for yourself.

Thanks for suggestion!
At now I've solved turning off GSM/3G data connection when I'm at home anyway I guess that WiFi reception sometimes go away due to issue of the phone or maybe as way to save battery...
when that happen phone stay unconnected so I guess that should be better if I will check for apps that keep WiFi connection always working!

when the device goes into standby, the wifi is turned off to save battery poweer, and it will go back to 3G.
go into the wifi settings, press menu and select advanced.
select the timeout options
set to never and it will not turn off when in standby.
problem solved and you shouldn't have to turn off Mobile data, although with the settings widget on your homescreen turning mobile data off off each time is hardly going to ruin your life. in fact i tend to do this anyway, just cos i have spent too many years with windows mobile....
Here's an annoying bug I've found tho - on TMob UK
If I send an MMS from home, wifi on, it sits there, and doesn't send the message. Until I turn off wifi and 3G kicks in again.
Now I know for a fact that on my Magic, it was able to turn on 3g/HSPDA to send the message all by itself. Might have a look in thodse advanced settings tho to see if there is something I can do.. Not a biggie, just a bit of an annoyance.

I too, have been doing a search on Forums all over Google looking for a resolution to this.
I have noticed if Wi-Fi is enabled I am unable to send or receive MMS messages.
It is an annoyance having to turn Wi-Fi off each time also I am never to know if someone has tried to send a message in the first place.
Currently using T-Mobile G2 (rooted with MCR Rom 2.8) on T-Mobile UK
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?

I experienced this problem with two X10, when you are on WCDMA only mode and data connection is active, try switching to GSM mode only. Your data connection will not restore until you enable then disable Airplane mode.
Anyone having this same problem? Both X10 have different manufacturing date and tried it also with different provider but same results
Mine doesn't do that. I do this all the time when I don't want to get over my limit in one day which is 1GB of data...
Mine does the same thing. I have no problem switching from 2g to 3g. But when I go back from to 3g to 2g I have to turn on airplane mode to enable data again. I am running GB 2.3.3 JVB. But the same thing happened on 2.2.1. Being searching like crazy and havent found any solution. Anybody know how to fix this? Maybe its a network problem not a phone problem.
Hi there.
I have the same problem. Do you have any news?
Hi
I am having problem with my internet (data) connection on my phone.
What's happening is that i start using the internet connection with no problems then at one point i lose data connection - all other serviced work well - sms / calls.
In order to get my data connection back i either have to restart phone or else go to flight mode and off flight mode again.
Is anyone experiencing a similar problem?
Ken
same issue, also with WIFI hotspot as well. really frustrated.
Hi Anyone else having the same issue or not having such an issue?
Since i am still not sure whether this is a phone problem or a service provider issue?
Ken
similar issue here.
i can only conncet to Edge buy setting the network mode to GSM only
using GSM/WCDMA auto results constant switching between H+ and 3g and then the device enters flight mode.
Any idea!!!!!!!!
Hey guys,
Just curious if anyone else in the Boston area is experiencing a 3G connectivity issue. It was working earlier today I think, but in the last hour, I can't connect to data...at home, now on Wifi...
EDIT: Nevermind..for some reason data was disabled...
No problems with data connectivity in Quincy. I havent had a hiccup at all today with the phone.
Yeah, it seemed like my data was disabled for some reason...went into settings battery and data and the data enabled on mobile network was off...turning it on fixed it...it was kinda weird.
