Can't decide if this is enough to return the phone over, so I'll ask the question to fellow XDA readers: I just bought an Atrix, and overall I absolutely love it. My only major complaint is that, every other day or so, my phone will randomly disconnect and then reconnect to wifi while I'm using it. This happens both at home and on my college's network. It's never more than a few seconds of lost coverage, but it always seems to happen while I'm actively using data. A few times, it's happened while I was on Market and it caused an app download to stall completely.
So, is this a common thing? Software or hardware? Worth getting a new phone? My local AT&T store was... less than friendly (read: shockingly rude) when I mentioned I might want to swap it out, so is it worth the pain of dealing with these guys again?
Thanks!
A few of us had that problem on release, have you downloaded the update yet? If not definitely try that first.
Here is the original thread: http://goo.gl/hCdN1
Its geared towards 5Ghz networks but still has good info.
What I think helped me the most was the removal of blank spaces from my SSID. Instead of "Wired Pirates Wireless Network", try "WiredPiratesWirelessNetwork". There are a few more good tips in that thread give it a read.
Thanks for the link! My campus wifi has the SSID "MizzouWireless", so I don't think the space is causing the issue. I'm running the latest firmware (rooted as well), and for some reason I'm still getting the issue... weird. Thankfully, it's not super-prevalent, but when it happens, it happens a lot. It also seems to be more related to certain apps than others; TweetDeck will update effortlessly, but Facebook has crashed the wifi twice.
Swapping it out = get a refurb, so I would avoid that option unless your phone is completely unusable.
From time to time I've had the wifi connection crap out too when there's an active download/upload. This is on my home network and it happens most often when I try to upload a video to youtube. I get only 1Mbps up so it can take a while to for an upload to complete.
However, for the most part downloads have been ok. I also assigned a static IP address for my phone to help keep the wifi connection. It still craps out from time to time though.
I had the same behavior with my BB 8900 and my wife's BB 9000, so I chalk it up to normal behavior for a smartphone. Our laptops maintain the wireless connection just fine. I have a work application on my laptop that issues an error message the moment the network connection is lost, so I can easily test this .
This is really killing me, someone please help lol heres how it goes
On boot, takes a good bit for the 3G icon to appear, eventually Phone has 3G icon gray with arrows then switches to D [still gray], i click something like a browser or Slack Radio it goes to connect and if its fast enough it does [icon changes to RED/GREEN arrows] but usually its a gray D, then the icon disappears completely. After about 60 seconds or so the icon reappears and I can continuing surfing the net/listen to music..etc. Then after about a song or 2 this happens all over again. Im in place with good reception and i just dont know what could be going on here. I tried pulling battery, doing the *228 option 2...anyone know how i can fix this
just tried hard reset, no dice
A nice excuse to call verizon and get a replacement device (most likely for free).
I've called them, they try and shoot me over to Samsung, samsung trying to tell me to get a hold of my 3G service provider...verizon did tell me i was due to upgrade, but i love this phone (when 3G worked) i just dont understand what froyo did, when im downloading stuff it works fine, but as soon as I stop and try to access something use 3G i have to wait for the 3G to "reboot" so to speak cuz thats when it disappears for minute, then comes back for me to use...but with streaming music you can see how this is an issue
I was having this same problem when they were pushing the EA28 update a couple of weeks ago which never successfully updated to my device I might add. I went into the Verizon store and after the rep spent about 10min on the phone with whoever.... Told me they were sending me a new phone. Received new phone with the EA28 update already installed 3G and all data worked GREAT! Attempted the Froyo update 6 times yesterday all unsuccessful and now the new phone I have is having the exact same problems with data connection. Comments and ideas would be appreciated. But ya better believe I'm goin into Verizon if the update attempt I'm doing now doesnt work.
I'd get another replacement from verizon tbh. If then it still doesn't resolve your issues ask to speak with a manager and tell him your situation. They might hook you up with a free upgrade.
Im going to go down to the store so I can get a face to face and show them whats happening. I mean i just wanted to make sure this wasnt some new thing on Froyo that im not understanding. I see it goes "D" [dormant] but it shouldnt disappear and take a minute to start up and let me use it right...thats poppycock!
Are you using "juice defender" by any chance?

You're lucky that yours just takes a minute to re-establish the connection, mine will just keep giving me network errors and telling me to check network access ect., depending on what app/service I am trying to connect. Exactly the same things that happened when the EA28 updates kept failing on my last phone only 2weeks ago. Also the Froyo update that says will take 15min to download takes over an hour even though my 3g stays on constantly when downloading from Verizon.

Had it installed [but not in use] when I updated to Froyo, but I just did a hard reset and am still getting issues...
...my Froyo update came in in about a 1/2 hour or so, no drop issues ever when I was on 2.1, my 3G icon stayed in the status bar even when I was out of service range [it would go in to 1X] but on froyo its just disappearing no matter where i am]
This crap has happened ever since the first "froyo" modem leak for me (but not like I could call vzw and complain though until now) and had to resort to using the DL09 modem to increase my usage reliability by a small percentage. This crappy service only seems to affect people in certain regions, you all see where I live (look to the left) and you guys should update your profiles to reflect at least a region. I odin'd all the way to stock and did the ota's to froyo and ran stock froyo for 2 days with the same old ****ty results. I did get a replacement (in february) and still got the same exact dBm signal levels and data speeds at home that I had with the other device. But the voice mails with no missed calls and bulk texts and data lockups are really getting on my ****in' nerves. I'm so glad they finally did the ota cause I can guarantee that the issue will be wide spread in various regions. I spend all day driving around in a work truck with a coworker that has an epic (sprint) and he has absolute perfection in his service everywhere throughout the city. At the end of a 10 hour day I will have rebooted twice and have tws at 47% coworkers tws will be at 1% and he pays $35 less for unlimited everything, which is a kick in head too. Pondering etf to maintain my sanity and not be worried that my 70 year old mother is trying to call me with an emergency and having my **** go to voicemail. Now on to customer service to build a case. Ugh, pissed off rant over.
*edit* I use no juice defenders no task killers no set cpu or anything even remotely close to apps of that nature.
good day.
Not running juice defender or anything else for that matter, my phone is basically stock out of the box right now other than CWM 2.5.1, un-rooted. I did flash super user to phone after I received it, and that still appears in my apps list after factory reset but I am not rooted.
I've spent at least 8-10 hours [combined] searching the internet for issues like mine with the disappearing act the 3G icon is putting on, and i've noticed it to be a Froyo issue [even saw some complains on the Incredible on froyo and even on different networks other than verizon]. I'm not 100% sure its a Froyo bug, but either way it doesnt seem to affect everyone. I stream music a lot and i can't be having this damn 3G disappear on me and always reconnecting after like every 2 songs.....im off to verizon, i'll let you know what happens [tho they are prob going to offer me some kinda upgrade like they did on the phone, but i was happy with this phone at 2.1 and overall still am, i just want my 3G to stop glitching!]

I agree, just want my 3G to work the way it is suppose to. Dont really want an upgrade because I've never really gotten an upgrade that I actually thought was an UP-Grade. *From Verizon anyway* Still downloading software update, been well over an hour and at 73%. At this rate Verizon store will be closed by the time I'm done with this update attempt.
"UPDATE FAILED or INCOMPLETE. reason: IP_START_UPDATE" Anybody know the possible causes of this failure?
Sounds like you are indeed losing your IP address. I have also had sporadic problems but they seem to be in low service areas. Typically I remain stationary and use local wifi so it is unconfirmed.

Just got back from Verizon, non of the techs could figure it out, i got this phone awhile back from a friend [so naturally theres no warrenty..etc] so im stuck gonna have to hit craigslist and such to find a new one, then sell this one i guess
FINALLY FOUND A FIX [or should i say it found its way to me thanks to myself posting this issue on multiple forums lol] I can confirm that method 2 has worked for me. Dont just dial *228 with fascinate already activated, you have to remove the service completely [by activating another phone is how i did it] then reactivate it and you should be good to go. Heres a write up.

Glad to hear it, i know how frustrating it is not knowing what is going on or how to fix it. I searched since Froyo OTA looking for an answer, luckily someone saw my plight and gave me that link as well so i thought i'd share it on all the android forums i have a name on. Cuz doin this never occurred to me and i tried everything else lol
So at least once a day my phones voice/3G radio will lockup. It'll show the last amount of signal I had. WIFI and 4Gthe work great but when trying to txt it will fail and when I try to make a call it'll sit at connecting and if I try to "end" the call it wont. Other then that the phone runs great.
So how many people are seeing this issue? I am wondering if my phone is simply poched or if everyone is seeing this.

It is all a bit weird. Would like to know if all these handsets come from the same place or different assembly plants.
I have not had any issues with voice/radio lockups, reboots, mute call, etc. Don't believe in luck. There has to be a reason why some are having super issues with the Photon and some have none.
I used to have silent call issues as well but after the OTA those are gone. But this whole radio lockup thing is kinda getting old and is happening more often.
Like I said the phone works great other then txt, voice and 3G data. And sometimes if I push it the phone will actually reboot itself(like make a call and try and send a bunch of txt messages while it is locked up.)
So now I am wondering if I need to get a replacement? It wont bother me to have to redo everything as long as it fixes this one issue, and like I said everything else works great not one issue.
My 3G radio acted up once so far. (showed a connection but wasn't sending / receiving texts and couldn't make calls)
what i did was turn airplane mode on then off and it seemed to reconnect to the cell network without issue. only done it once so far.
do you use juice defender? Have seen this issue and experienced this issue. I have been unable to determine the cause but i know a friends phone had just installed juice defender and it was locking up the connection! if you don't then im not sure i haven't really seen the issue since the update

If I try airplane it sets with it grayed out and the check box grayed out and never comes back from that. Also the signal bars still remain on the notafication bar as if I never checked airplane mode.

Nope I don't use those things at all. I leave WIFI on all the time as I connect at work and home for better battery and speed. And before you say it it happens with WIFI on or off and the same for 4G. It almost seems like a hardware issue more then a software, but it is kinda to hard to actually tell.
And I have done two factory resets so far and still the issue occur's. Might try to do a full reinstall or just take it in to the shop and tell them to give me another one.
id def go ask for a new one. I dont have any issues other then the proximity sensor sometimes acts like a goof. I havent had the phone lock up or reboot once its entire life. knock on wood.
So I made an odd discovery. When WIFI is off this issue does not occur. WIFI on however the voice/3g will lockup and never recover after one phone call.
I have the latest update and everything, so wonder why WIFI on would cause the voice radio to lockup after one call....
I wonder if I have never seen this because I use tasker to periodically turn my 3g data off and wifi on - on a time schedule 8-10 times a day. Depending on where I am at that time of day and if there is wifi at that part of the building or location.
Had the same issue once. Was like wtf. Toggled Mobile data off and saw a FC pop up and go away. Turn mobile data back on and was good to go. So I think it may be a software glitch.
Also.....make sure you keep your PRL up to date. Old PRLs can wreak havoc on voice/3g connectivity.

Yea I'm still not sure on software or hardware, but right now my phone's 3g is locked up because I had wifi on when I received a call. I am waiting for the auto reboot lol.
I think I may just take it back to the store and swap it out for another one now that I can make this happen pretty much every time. Good thing I don't make many calls. lol
and yea I keep up with the PRL like a crazed child chasing after an ice cream truck.

So, I've only had my LGOG for a day and a half and I am having issues connecting with WiFi. At first it worked fine but when I left the coverage area and return a few hours later it would not connect. Tried turning off the WiFi but it kept turning itself back on. I reboot the phone and it works fine as soon as it boots up it connects the WiFi no problem. It is my work WiFi and I had no issues connecting to it from either my iPad nor my HTC One X that will soon find it's way to eBay thanks to this beautiful LGOG. If no one else is having issues, I will call AT&T and have them switch it out. I just wish there was an easy way to back up everything, I mean my home screens and app locations exc. It takes so long to set everything back up the way I find most useful.
WiFi on my device has been excellent.

The Wifi performance of this device is unbelievable. I get the best speeds I have ever seen with any device including PCs. It's either a faulty device or maybe your work has strange security settings?
I had this same problem with my LGOG and my home wireless network. It just would sit and try to connect until I rebooted the phone.
That was on stock though. I have not had any more problems with it after flashing the base rom.
My work has standard WPA settings and it was connected fine yesterday. I left again during lunch and when I came back, same problem and had to reboot the phone. AT&T is sending me another one already and a free case. Can't be too mad about it I guess and at least the phone reboots fast.
Have you tried using the ATT smart wifi app? Fixed the exact same issue for me.

Twice My O.G. wouldn't connect to wifi networks even though it had connected to them in the past. I tried to turn it off and on and scan for the network that I am in range of and it wont show any networks it just says "not in range" when I am in range. So to remedy the situation I turned the phone off and then on. It has only done this to me twice but it's a real nuisance because both times I needed wifi. My phone is stock.
You're in a minority. This thing's wifi blows most other wifi implementations out of the water.

I wish my wifi would stop re-enabling itself. It's chewing up my home bandwidth.
I have been having this issue as of late. It seems to have developed this habit in the last week or so. At first I thought it was Time Warner trolling me but it started happening at work. Something tells me it has something to do with the stock At&T Rom putting the wi-fi radio to sleep and not being able to bring it back online. Reboot fixes it most of the time but sometimes it takes a couple attempts. I have been hesitant to mod this phone still because I would really like to see CM working well before I flash. Also my instinct tells me another possible culprit could be IPv6 on certain routers. That, however, is far less likely unless someone with a decrapified Rom has experienced this issue as it would be a cross platform issue in this case. Anyone else have any insight? Otherwise it's time to get rid of the Att rom.

Same issue here. This is my second LGOG and have been happy with both except for some minor glitches on both with the keyboard freezing up as well as with the WiFi not re-connecting after leaving the area. A restart normally fixed both problems. My first one bricked after rooting and removing all of the bloatware (the phone checks for certain apps upon booting to keep you from removing stock apps). Tried a fix but I couldn't get a Rom at that point as the phone had been out on the market for under a week. I haven't messed with it since but I may try a new Rom and be able to fix the WiFi and get rid of all the bloatware that way.
Just got this ROM running today. No more WiFi issues at all. Some minor ui bugs I am OK with.

Seems like, as usual, At&T bloat ware is the culprit. I experienced the same on my Aria and Inspire. Hope this helps and good luck.
Also I had the keyboard problem but that went away when I switched to the Android default keyboard. One of the other reasons I decided to root was because rather than freezing, the Android default keyboard started typing then the auto correct broke and stopped displaying the words unless you touched the area you were typing in. It really bugged me when it started doing it right after I factory reset. Weird huh?

LG Optimus G Wi-Fi Receiver Disconnect Issue
Funny...I've had some weird home wi-fi issues on two of these.
To explain, I bought mine in December, stock OS of course, and immediately noticed it turning off my wi-fi every time I tried switching between the two home wi-fi SSIDs I created when I upgraded to DD-WRT. This also occurred outside my house, but stopped shortly after the nearly-immediate Android OS upgrade came over (and forced me to install it, I might also note; I'd read the thing was just more AT&T bloatware, but two or three boots later, apparently I got no choice, and it auto-installed).
The good news was, somehow, this 'update' somehow stopped the thing from turning the wi-fi off when I switched between IDs (my base router has a 5G 2nd network which I wanna use when I'm around it, but DD-WRT won't support, as far as expanding it--thusly, I have another 2.4GHz signal I use and relay out around my yard).
That bad news is, though, that I screwed up the phone with the Root Toolbox (Lite) by merely fiddling with their bootanim settings on that original phone. And I mean bricked it, solid.
I'd never bricked any phone, so this ticked me off. Luckily, I was still within 2 days of my 30-Day Best Buy in-store replacement warranty, so I took it back, they fiddled too, and gave up on it.
Hence, my 2nd phone...which now, even after the system update direct from AT&T, still turns off my wi-fi every time I try switching to that 2nd SSID, so I'm left wondering if it was even the same update; I don't think I did anything else, and can't see it as a settings issue, because it did it right out of the box, and the first one stopped after the only system update before I got a chance to even figure ANY user settings out, much less any network ones.
So, now I'm 'going shopping' for 'some PlayStore app' that will skip this B.S. and automatically connect to the strongest home wi-fi signal (within reason--sometimes they're equally strong), without obnoxiously turning off my wi-fi receiver as I look at it.
This kind of malarky could spoil some phones for some people, but I'll struggle along due to the speedy quad-core in it [sigh...wah!].
I guess I'm a big baby, seeing as how I don't write one iota of code, but my personal haughty view is that any dedicated wi-fi devices should have better wi-fi connection than any Windows OS made...and, so far, this'n doesN'T!
What a dumb thing to let happen in such a potentially awesome phone...[AT&T!!!]
This might work or not but can't hurt to try. Apparently some people in the new snowleopard JB thread was having similar issues and for a few, changing the security from WPA2 to WEP worked. Although mines been good and fine on WPA2 but worth a try.
Using wep in 2013 is beyond retarded.

DUDE! Senior Members here can be a little uppity and rude...even if they're completely correct.
Glad you called out the 'behavior', and not the 'member', though...
but enough of the technicalities...I'm still looking for solutions...beyond blaming AT&T (too easy), or even the strangeness of getting into blaming some weird kind of manufacturing errors (QC at best), I'm left waiting for a substantial OS update (like, oh a better place of decimal, perhaps?), or worse, an app...anyone look at the state (and sheer number) of 'wi-fi' apps? Anybody here can guess, they number in the thousands, and a Play search for 'wi-fi' gets you astronomically different results from 'wifi', even, so I'm not sure I need to be looking at that.
Maybe it's even somehow that, with the first phone, I noticed this, and somehow added my own home network to the AT&T Smart Wi-Fi 'bloatware' that came with the phone (not the worst evil they've ever done, so far, BTW--it does exactly what I imagined should be going on in the background while you're driving around, indexing locales with free Wi-Fi for you to choose to save later...an idea I would call 'Tarzaning', if you get my drift).
I'm gonna try changing two settings in the AT&T 'Smart Wi-Fi' bloatware to 'My Spots' temporarily, at least, to see if it'll latch onto my home stuff more aggressively. I just can't wait to report back my fantastically successful findings here (right after I buy the domain name 'snarkasm.net').
Oh crap...it's already taken.
Is the AT&T smart wifi thing enabled by default? I can't remember. I thought it sounded useful so I played with it a bit but ultimately I didn't like the way it worked so I disabled it.
Still wanted some way to auto-enable/disable wifi. I didn't have anything to go on, but I picked up "Smart WiFi Toggler" which seems to work well. It uses location-based rules (based on cell signals) by default. I also use AutomateIt to turn off mobile data once wifi has been on for 1 minute, and turn on mobile data immediately when wifi disconnects. I have no idea if this saves me any battery life, but I do it anyway.
Well, the title says it all. I recently had a predicament where my device wasn't receiving 4G. We came to the conclusion it was the SIM card.
My phone is pulling at least 9 MB/s usually, but when I load an app, 3 that come to mind are Facebook, Google Reader, and Google Now, it takes at least almost as long as 3G speeds to load anything... I just cleared the data on the Facebook app, tried to log in, and it took so long that it timed out and won't log in.
What the **** is going on with my phone? I got a replacement shipped to me, but I already sent it back due to the fact that I got my 4G connection back. It seems as though whenever I load anything, there's always this..... extreme delay to get everything started. If I open up Google Chrome, the phone moves insanely fast browsing. I don't understand what is holding back the other apps from pulling in a good connection.
Can anyone tell me what is going on with my device? I'm getting frustrated as hell.

Random, not probable, and i'm just thinking out loud since no one else is... haha
But, does it act that slow all the time (in those certian apps, or all around)?
When you conduct your speedtests, are you in the same location as when you are trying to use those apps that load slow?
The reason i ask, is because i recently troubleshooted data speeds on my phone that were frequently occurring, well as it turned out the "frequently" was only when i was in my barracks room. I conducted a test inside my room, slow as hell, i stuck the phone out the window and conducted a test, and it was instantly the 4G LTE Speeds. (Note:I have ALWAYS gotten good speed in my room up until like 4 days ago) I don't know if verizon changed something, or the tower changed or what, but it was random and yeah...

I conducted a test inside my room, slow as hell, i stuck the phone out the window and conducted a test, and it was instantly the 4G LTE Speeds. (Note:I have ALWAYS gotten good speed in my room up until like 4 days ago) I don't know if verizon changed something, or the tower changed or what, but it was random and yeah...

I've tried speed tests in various locations, and they're all pulling good MB. I've not dipped below 3 MB at all. It's definitely not a room situation either because I've tried it in different parts of my city and different houses/buildings. It's strictly my device.
Ugh... I have to call them again to get this issue fixed now. :l

Call them so they can what, tell you to enable/disable your data connection, then power off your phone for 30 seconds and restart, put it in airplane mode and then back out, then if all else fails restart the phone from scratch? lol
Sorry i couldn't help.
When u open app for first time it is slow, bit if you close app and reopen it, is it fast on reopening or just as slow? I know when I usr cache cleaner the first time I open apps it takes an extra sec to pull them open.

The only issue ive experianced is a lag and delay. Example in xda app hitting the next button for the page just sits there and I press it again then about 10 seconds later im up 2-3 pages at once.
Its the internal. App data requests that are lagged behind at times.
