This thread is about the famous 'data hanging' problem experience on SGS2's and how to address it on the Three Network in the UK. (Where the green arrow gets stuck on uploading with no download).
The problem from what I understand is that the handset constantly changes between GPRS, 3G, H and H+ to save power. Fast Dormancy is a setting the SGS2 uses to make this even more frequent.
The Three network is pretty flaky, and relies on 'borrowing' signal from other providers. This means EVEN MORE changes. The SGS2 doesn't deal with changes particularly well and due to the sheer number, often gets stuck when a new connection is formed. Cycling data connection will fix the problem temporarily
I get this problem with stock firmware a little and custom firmware a lot.
I do not want to be stuck on KE4 forever and I do not want Three's stupid games installed. I am very annoyed.
Update 19 August 2011
I spoke to Three today. I explained what happened and both the first line rep and his manager knew the problem that I have. They acknowledged that it is an issue that they are in talks with Samsung about trying to fix.
They told me that I can have an exchange, but that EVERY SINGLE ANDROID PHONE ON THEIR NETWORK has this problem.
However they still refused to give me a refund as I'm (well) out of my 14 day cooling off. I told the guy that under the Sale of Goods Act, if something doesn't do what it says on the box I can get a refund for an indefinite 'reasonable' amount of time.
I am getting a call back from his superior this week. Will report on progress, but this is big. Three are selling phones that they know don't work properly on a mass scale. I am going to use this to my advantage.
I bought mine sim free. Was on t mobile for a while and moved the 3 a couple of weeks ago. I've not noticed any problems as you've described. I once had this on O2 though and it turned out to be a localised network fault.
Are you using juicedefender? JD caused that same problem with my old Milestone, but so far it's fine on SGS2 on Three.

Hi guys. I have this phone on Three here in the UK and annoyingly, several times a day, the data stops working. It gets stuck with the uploading arrow in the bar (no download) and will just sit there.
Cycling the radio / flight mode brings it back to life for a few hours. Does anyone else on Three experience this? I need to know if mine is a faulty handset, or if its a network problem.
This happens regardless of which ROM I use.

Mike, mine is exactly the same. It will absolutely fly for most of the day (even sometimes days at a time) and then it will just get stuck. Press and hold power to deactivate, and reactivate 'data network mode' and is well again till next time.
Seems to happen more when the phone has been sleeping for a prolonged time but not always the case. Doesn't appear to be any pattern. Changing ROM makes no difference here and I've quadruple checked my APN settings.

Known issue.Is not carrier dependent.Same here with Vodafone Greece.Some guys told that is hardware fault and some software.I think is software problem

It is the modem firmware. Once I updated to kf2 modem the problem dissapeared.

This happens to me most days, I have been rebooting to get back online. I will try the flight mode on and off to see if that helps.
But this is obviously a problem with Three network. I just thought it was Three`s sneaky way of throttling my "as much as you can eat" data plan.
I have KF2 modem and the issue continues.
I am glad to hear that others face the same problem. Is anyone in the UK on another network experienceing it? My friend is on Vodafone and we have the same ROM. He does not experience the issue at all.
Does anyone have a link to a thread which documents this issue?
I rely on Whatsapp and Email for communication, and this stops both from working. I might actually have to send my SGSII back if it continues
I'm on Three UK and have not experienced this problem yet. Shall let you know if/when I do.

Ive definately had this recently. didnt have it b4 though.
I have this problem. Stops my LiveProfile from working properly. Its very random too.
Can be quite annoying.
Hopefully it's a software problem rather than hardware. Only time and updates will tell.
I'm on o2 network with stock KE7 XEU firmware.
Same as op. Three and on ke7
Just went to kf2.
Will see what happens
If anyone manages to fix this, please share.
Incidentally, my bluetooth does a very similar thing with my car stereo. It just freezes and requires cycling off and back on.
I'm on three and get the same issue.
I also do the flight mode recycle.
I'm also using juice defender.
It's not a major issue for me more of an annoyance

I just remembered something you can try. Change the APN from ( i think) three.co.uk to just 3INTERNET.
I also having this problem from last week. Before I do not have this problem. May be network problem.

So far, this appears to be working!
(although I can no longer check my usage on the Three mobile website, but that's not too much of an issue)
I'll keep this thread updated with my progress.
Incidentally, I did not get this issue until I started flashing ROMs - or at least I didn't notice it.
I've been having this issue the past few nights on Orange. Fine during the day but at night the data stops.
Reboot the phone and it comes back. Just about to try KF2 modem to see if that helps.
yeh i have the same problem.... i can be going on internet browsing away then 4-5 pages in it just stops... and takes 1-2mins load and then just stops all together.
i dunno why its doing it...

Please do let them know that a number of us are experiencing this. Although it doesn't seem limited to THREE, it definitely isn't on every handset.
Mine still hasn't done it since I changed APN as recommended above though.
Hi all,
I'm the kid whose buddy rooted his phone, and doesn't have much of a clue as to whats going on.
I've since moved out of state and am no longer near my buddy
Anyways, lately, when people send me a long text, I'll get the first half, but not he second half. And it won't come period. Why would this be?
And also, My gps worked for a while, then suddenly, in the past few days, hasn't been working. Does the gps require data coverage to work? I dont' have great data coverage in this area unfortunately.
Thank you.

Well, as far as the text messages go, I believe you can only have up to 160 characters in one text. Some message apps will automatically spilt it up into two messages if its more than 160. Not sure if that's the reason, just a little tid bit.
I'm not 100% sure but I believe you do need a data connection for gps use.

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.

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.
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

Shoot, I see senior members start new threads or pointless threads without searching first, so good job haha.
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

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...?

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

Thank you.
Here is the link to the free version of what actually needed though:

For some reason today my Amaze decided to randomly stop getting any type of data signal. I will be able to place and receive calls, and send and receive texts, but I will not be able to connect to the internet, or anything requiring data.
If I go in to settings it will show my mobile network as on, but I will have to toggle it off and on a few times before it eventually comes back up. It seems the first two trys it will say "turning on..." and nothing will happen until I turn it off and back on, eventually getting data signal.
I didn't change anything this morning to prompt this, and I don't have any battery saver apps that turn data off when the screen is off. This is also happening both at work and at home, places where I have always had great signal before, so I am at a bit of a loss as to what is going on with my phone.
For reference I am running ICS 4.0.3, S-Off, and rooted.
It's a tmo issue.
Have others been experiencing this issue today?
All week.
Oh, I had assumed that people in the Midwest were experiencing problems with the storms and all, I didn't know they were having issues in California.
Thats a relief at least, I was worried there might be something up with my phone, which at the moment I can't afford to replace. That is certainly a load off my mind!
It's a nationwide issue, seems to be overload on the network or they're probably installing that new band.
Haha, well as long as it keeps me from buying a new phone it's all good. Thanks for the info!
Lol at getting a new phone, no prob, it should be back on in an hour or so.
