im in NYC and i tried to flash a bamf.1.8 rom and was stuck on 1x after that. i thought it was the rom so i flashed cm7 rc06. again and 1x still. so is this a verizon issue?
Lots of us are going back and forth between 1x & 3g, and i'm in constant 4g area. Verizon must be working

Is your back cover on the phone? - It has the antenna and without it...it will not connect to 4G from my experience.
Then again, I'm in Bay area California and right now I have 1x since 12am. - I'm perplexed with the case because I didn't do anything since I just arrived back from Lake Tahoe about 4hrs ago.
*Possible that it's a Verizon outage issue. - Nice to see this since I just moved away from Sprint to grandfather this LTE unlimited data.. Never had one outage while with Sprint XD
Hope that they get it together!
I noticed it's been on 1X for awhile this evening as well. I attempted a battery and sim pull and let it sit for a bit but it was still on 1X when I put it all back and rebooted a few minutes later. If others in different areas of the country are experiencing the same then it's probably something on Verizon's end.
I think it's Verizon
I think it's Verizon. because I'm in San Diego and normally get 6 bars of 4G and not I'm getting 6 bars of 1X and 3 secs of 3G. I thought I had messed something up when i flashed the MR2.5 Radio then I went back to MR2 and same thing and then you guys have the same problem too. So I know I'm good now lol.
Running Gingeritits
im here in so cali and im getting 1x also and sometimes not even that. for a second i was abuot to curse my gingeriitis. how dare i even think such naughty thoughts. its all verizon. maybe they are getting some 4g towers near me.....ok probably not.
I had this happen to me this morning. I rebooted and my 3g came back. Not sure about 4g since I don't get a strong signal at work.

Jumping from 3g, 4g and 1x this morning in Atlanta, now its all 4g
I agree. Must be working on the network. Some days i get stuck on 1x and then it will go to 3G. I am on 4G right now without any issues. I just flashed GB with the newest radio leak and its smooth so far.
Yeah I was still stuck on it til this morning but I did a reboot and on 4G
Live in upstate NY... for the times that we even had data it was 1X and only 3G for like a second. it was killing me cause I rooted for the first time and I thought I killed my radio.. I could make calls but no data.
I figured by the way it would come and go that they were working. Same thing when EVDO came. They screw around at night all the time and then try to clean up their mess by the AM. You'd have no signal some signal.. and then holy **** moments where you would have like full signal in areas where you never get full signal... When they get to playin they go nuts.
everything gravey here in So Cal

has anyone else had issues with 4g turning off randomly? the first several days i had this phone, i could get a 4g signal anywhere in my apartment. i know because i had serious issues with sprint signal in my apartment, so i practically haven't put this phone down since i got it.
yesterday i was tethering on 4g a lot and when i disabled tethering the 4g radio turned off and i just had two bars, but it didn't say 4g OR 3g. i went into the settings dialing *#*#4636#*#* or whatever it is and enabled LTE only mode (it had been on 3g/4g auto). when i did that, i had 4g for about 30 seconds to a minute and then it went to 3g. same thing happened this morning. maybe they are playing with the towers because as im typing this i see i have auto switched back to 4g. hmm.

I received my TB on Friday afternoon and had 4G all day and night until this morning. Woke up, powered the phone on and had only 3G. 4G came back after an hour or so.
I bought mine last week and didn't have any problems until this morning. For the first time I left the power off overnight and when I turned it back on I couldn't get a 3G or a 4G signal. It's been an hour now and I still don't have a signal. I've commuted from Maryland to DC in that time so it's not the area.
Same here. Mines been going on off all morning. Im in tampa
sent from my Tbolt.
I'll note that I'm in Chicago, but 4g seems solid again now (fingers crossed).

this is discussed in multiple threads already, you might search them out, but yes, many have the issue. I have that issue specifically that you mention, but even more frustrating also get time where the 4G icon is there, and there is zero data connectivity; all apps show "network connection required".
Sems like LTE isn't rock-solid service yet.
I have the same problem after I rooted last night. I had 4G everywhere in my house. Now I get mostly 1X and maybe 3G if I am lucky. The radio version was much higher before.
Same Here
I called Verizon. there is a known issue with 4g Tbolt. they said they are working on it. Coworkers with 3g phones are having no issues. I am still getting 1x if i am lucky. Chicago area.
glad to know i'm not alone with this, in metro nyc area (commuting between nj/nyc)
I am also have the same problem as of this morning. Just called Verizon and they said they are working on it. Now my phone is stuck on 1X I am in Queens NY right now coming from the Bronx...funny thing when I power down the phone and turn it back on it stays on 4G for about a second and disconects
I am also having issues with 4G going in and out. I had not had any issues until this morning and it was a bit worrisome as I just rooted last night and I was afraid something I had done might have caused an issue. But it seems like a national problem being addressed, so I'll just wait it out I guess.

I had the same problem this morning going from MD to DC. I was worried it was my phone. All seems well now. Getting 15 down now.
Still seem to be having issues in NY

is this a network problem or phone problem?
Stuck on 1x as well, outside Philly. Hoping it's not just me.
I'm having same issue,but mine happened just after I rooted my phone.Before rooting I had never seen my phone go into 3G mode,but now it goes to 1x or nothing.Hopefully its an issue on Verizon's end and not my phone.
In Detroit, also on 1x.

I am also experiencing this issue as of this morning in Northern VA. I guess early adopters have to expect some type of issue.
Seems to be network related... At least not the phone
Yup confirmed with tech support, there's a nationwide outage with 4g data and they are working it with the highest priority, the tech said. Ah the costs of new technology. Always will have issues at start.
Just wondering if anyone else has lost their 4G signal today? I've been running fine all week, but all of a sudden today I just can't pick up 4G. I'm still running stock on my phone, and just don't get it?
It could be the weather. It has rained pretty good over here in the OC and 4G was pretty patchy for me
No problems here in Atlanta today with 4g
Ok, I just called Verizon. They told me that they're adding more coverage in the Miami area where I live, so that may be the issue? I was told to call back later in the evening if I'm still not picking up 4G.
Sucks in DC. 4G goes in and out.
Most of the time when im on 4G ill get connection errors. Just got TB yesterday so who knows.
Also, the phone (or network) seems to think i can go between DC and Texas within a few seconds. Had to turn off automatic updating.....
this morning when i woke up no 4g but i rebooted and nothing did a hard reboot everything is normal
What zip code are you in William? i'm in 33016 and have been only getting 3G however i was getting 4G a few days ago. I wonder if they adding more towers near me. I do hope so, will make my work day that more pleasurable lol
I have no clue what the issue is, but the past two/three days, my 4g has been going in and out. As a matter of fact, as I sit here... I'm on 1x with 4 bars behind it, full battery life, on Pennsylvania Ave in Washington DC.
Anyone else having 4g issues?
same here. even if i have two bars on 4g all of sudden my data connection drops then goes to 3g and a second later switches back to 4g. its annoying as hell when im tryin tether or download something from the market.
I am having problems again since last night. Had almost two days of good 4G signal. Now I can barely get 3G.
Called VZW they said there has been a trouble ticket for Thunderbolt data since yesterday and hope to have it resolved today.
I think they're tweaking it or something. I'm changing in between every 30 seconds. That in itself drains the battery a buttload.
Something is rotten in Denmark with this new network. I can force 3G only but if I leave the thing set to CDMA/LTE, it can't figure out which it wants. Which is pretty much killing all data. Luckily, wifi is an option. I hope they get this new network figured out soon. More LTE devices are slated to drop soon (bet there will be delays).
I was constantly in a state of 1x today. My battery was eaten up it a mere 5 hours... gulp
hell im on verizons 4g map at home here and havent been able to get 4g at all.Ive had the phone for two weeks now and have called verizon about this,,they tried pushing some data info to my phone to no avail,,so i guess im on record now according to the rep and she did admit that this is a work in progress...yes thank god for wifi.
double post?

Mine has been flakier than usual today and this week. I'm on K and 1st NE. But I also never get more than 2 bars here in the office.
If i were you i'd call verizon tech support and ask them if where you are is currently under 4g. I've had the same issue and my address on the coverage map shows that i have 4g but it kept going in and out. Called VZW and they have a different coverage map that they see and he said where i was located i was 1 mile away from the coverage area so thats why it kept switching. Just my luck huh lol
So I had my TBolt for like 6 months now and used to get AWESOME 4G here at work. I went on Vacation and it's never been the same. I don't know if I damaged the phone somehow, or if maybe my towers are somehow locked on to my vacation towes or something.
Ever since I got back, I get 4G SOMETIMES and it's always really flakey, where before it was AWESOME. I have to reboot several times a day as sometimes it will say I have 4G but nothing works.
Any ideas? I've tried numerous ROM/Radio combos...
Is there any config I can do on my end? I bought my Tbolt out of contract on ebay so I can't really replace it
It's been like this for about 3 weeks now.

i think the T-Mobile guy replying with that smily face is trying to say you should get a Galaxy S 4G.
i have heard though that since Verizon no longer offers unlimited data plans that they are going to "slow down" people that have unlimited as some cost cutting measure.
at least you got to have 4G though. 6 months now and still no 4G in my area.
you know what they say though, Verizon is one of the most evil corporations next to the Christian Coalition.
You may have a bad sim. Verizon will replace it for you. Also you can try powering down the phone and pull the sim out for about 10 min. Then boot it up. See if it won't lock. Has helped me before.

Root your phone and update the radio to newest 802 leak. Fixed all my issues with dropped data and reboots and yea everything that wad wrong with my phone
Sent from my Gingeritis free phone, its now Cl3an
I am having the EXACT same problem as you =/ I tried AOSP roms, Sense roms, different radios, nothing worked. My mom's thunderbolt still on stock gets GREAT 4g. I guess it's our sim cards. I'm gonna try to go to verizon to get it replaced see what happens
Lol, as a former T-Mobile rep, I would totally NOT encourage you to go to the Galaxy S 4g lol. I'll take dialed down LTE over HSPA+ any day lol!

I just tried to use that new radio for my phone, it didn't work =/ The 4g symbol came on for a couple minutes but the internet didn't work. Then the symbol switched to 3g and the internet worked, but only 3g =/
Edit: ok, so now the 4g symbol stays there, but the arrows next to it dont light up and the internet doesn't work
You are located in a weak signal area. Try to move a couple of blocks away and see if you have better LTE signal.
My mom gets perfect 4g connection on stock
So if you don't have a custom rom you will never know this but anyone ever see they phone on 1x instead of 3g?
Mine seems to do it randomly. I will have decent signal and be doing something on the net like IM or checking email and it will just drop to 1x and snail mode, after being idle for a few min will go back to 3g.
It doe snot always do this but seems to about once a day and has happened at home and work now so not just the tower.
Just in hopes I don't need to exchange my phone or something
Again only like once a day but I just dont understand it. I am on MeanRom right now and has happened on all versions since I started on 1.5 and doubt is his rom and just that his rom lets me see the 1x now is all.

Yes!
I recently installed that LiquidSmooth ROM and now I find my phone dropping into 1X on a daily basis.
I have to turn Mobile Network off and put it back on for it to go into 3G. Otherwise it remains stuck in 1X.
What gives?
In Cincinnati I seem to see more 1x then 3g last week or so
Yes!
Mine will cycle from 4g to 1x all the time.
I've never talked bad about an HTC product but this phone sucks!
This have been a problem since the day I pulled it out of the box.

The phone doesnt suck. The network sucks. Welcome to sprint. The networks undergoing huge changes to it.

This is not caused by the network, this is a phone or firmware issue.
I have my Evo 3d and it does not do this in same areas.
I agree the network is slow which they are working on but this 1x is the phone doing something.
I wonder if this is a result of the recent FW upgrade or not, though guess not being a previous user said from day one his did this (which not sure how he would know that for sure as people didn't know it always said 3g right away to know to modify the rom)
My rooted OG Evo used to do the same thing in the Tampa Bay area. I haven't rooted my LTE yet, but I would assume it will do it too once I root.
Ya this happens to be and the best way I can fix the problem for me is to turn airplane mode on and then turn it off and it will go back to 3g or LTE
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
I'm having the same issue. Airplane mode fixes it until I find another weak signal area and it returns to 1x. It will remain in 1x again until I cycle airplane mode again--even in strong signal 55dBm fast data areas.
