Random (and several) data drop offs CM7 - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else getting random data drop offs? Happens a lot for me. I see data and all my bars for a few seconds. I am on latest release of CM7 with latest radio that works with it.

Mine did this but only because I had juicedefender. The data would get stuck and the phone trying to fix the problem would restart the whole process android.phone. I would imagine this would happen with any data toggling service. Hope this helped

Help please with data connection issues

I have a rooted vibrant running stock Tom with the j16 update and my 3g works intermittently at best. Is there any fix I can do myself?? Its understandable if I were in a cave but I'm getting full bars and my signal strength is -89 dbm 12 Asus. Please please anyone. I'm almost to the point where I'm about to call T-Mobile and see if they can switch me out a different phone. I hate the idea of paying for the web and nit being able to use it. BTW, if I pull my battery off and restart the data connection will work for about 10 mibs

I'm interested to see the answer/suggestions as well, I've been having the same issue.
It will work then not, a restart or going into flight mode and back will get it working for awhile. It does it over Wi-Fi too..(Sound familiar?)........... It's done it stock, rooted with OCLF, with ji6 and now even with Bionix 1.9
Yeah I mean my wifi works all the time but now even when I do the airplane mode it doesn't bring back my 3g data connection. Its driving me bat **** tho. How about u?

How good it the 3G coverage in your area?
Try a market app called Map Viewer. At home I'm out of 3G coverage.
OK I will try to download it and let you know

Do a factory data reset.

well I found out from the map that my 3g coverage system work is supposedly non existence. Go figure. So I'm basically getting snippets of it. If I do a factory reset I will lose all my info right? And when you say reset do u mean using Odin and flashing stock 2.1?

Do it from the phone settings, privacy. Yes, u will loose all yr apps, but save them using appsaver from android market first. Your new rom update will still be there. Hope this helps. Thats what I did to correct my 3g issue, just like what you described.

just throwing this idea out there. tmobile could be doing tower work in your area. i experienced this for awhile where data was just iffy and wasnt very reliable. this may happen on and off for a few days.

4g strangeness

So I've has this ongoing issue and it never really bugged me until today, and want to see if anyone has any ideas. Sometimes (more often then not) I am unable to activate 4g on my photon. It simply refuses to start the radio whether its done via widget on home screen or settings. The 4g icon will flash for a half second then goes away. The only way to fix is to either kill all tasks (including system tasks using systempanel) or a phone shut down and reboot. Now, I understand it might be an app interfering with it, but I don't know what it would be. I am rooted stock, and i do have roam control, although this did happen to me before I got roam control I believe.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Do you tether with it? I get the same thing whenever I tether with 4g. Usually a reboot also does the trick for me too.

I do Tether but not regularly. Its not because wifi tether is just installed at all is it?
Sent from my MB855 using Tapatalk
I have the exact same 4g radio issue. I do have wifi tether installed but rarely use it. Happens to me every few days and rebooting is the only thing that had worked for me. I've tried clearing out ram but I usually end up having to reboot to fix it. Very annoying!
{edit} I'm on stock 198_6 rooted.

Navigation crashing

So I reset my phone to 1.22.651.3 and didn't take OTA yet because I need to re-lock bootloader and whatevs, but whenever I use my navigation via google, the thing crashes after a couple of minutes. Anyone else have this problem? anybody have a solution? did this get fixed for you via the update?
Yes, I'm having serious crashing problem s too. And I'm on a long trip, so this real ly sucks. Seems to happen when getting a poor signal. Like switching back-n-forth from Sprint and roaming

Clear the cache for maps and reboot
That seems to have fixed it!

Data connection issues (ATT)

I've noticed lately I'll be able to connect to data one minute and the next I don't.. even though I have full bars and the 4G icon is spewing its orange lines... only thing that fixes this is a reboot, then magically I have connection again.
I'm running stock 11c... anyone else have this issue?
My wife had the same problem a couple days ago. Our rom is stock 10o. At least this phone boots a lot faster than my old atrix.

I've experienced that as well. I'm currently using the ported stock Jelly Bean Rom and I have the 4GLTE symbol with the orange bars but when I try to load a YouTube video, it'll keep loading without showing the video. But when I reboot, it'll start it, but then when I want to watch another, it will just keep loading. I can still load up the Internet and the xda app but I can't watch videos.
Edit: So it's not that it won't load videos, it just takes a long time. I believe it's just not receiving LTE like is has before.

You may have tried this, since you mentioned the only thing that fixes the data connection is a reboot, but have you tried putting the phone in airplane mode and back again? That works for me when mine is stubbornly showing there's a data connection where nothing is happening.

I have done the airplane trick and that temporarily fixed my issues when I was on the stock rom. I also went in and got a new sim which seemed to help. I haven't noticed it as much since the new sim.

I've tried turning data on and off but that doesn't seem to work... haven't tried airplane mode yet.
I'm on 10o and I'm having the same issue with data. It is the radio because I've had this issue with other phones in the past and with them I had to flash different radios for a fix. Hopefully it will be fixed when they release the official JB for us Att users.

Weird huh? I'm going to try the new v2 of the rom and see if that might help. Fingers crossed.

I've got the same problem as well. Often times when I am in an area with full bars and I get the 4G LTE symbol, I get no data at all.
I'll chime in and say I have the same problem as well. It affects me both on WiFi and on HSPSA. I can only describe it as incredibly annoying.

What does "ocazional data drops" mean ?

I was intending to install a CM10.1 Rom but i read in bug list "ocazional data drops" what does this mean ?
Data will work but sometimes stop for short time periods. Does not require a reboot just a few moments and it usually comes back. Although I have never experienced the issue on my cricket flashed phone.
