I'm having some strange 3g hiccups lately. I'll elaborate.
sometimes while browsing etc the phone will hang on 3g connections (eg does not even resolve DNS). the data connection icon keeps cycling the 3g and H symbols; at each new symbol switch the upload and download arrows seem to 'do something' for some instants then they fail and start the cycle all over again. I don't even seem to find a way to resolve the issue as putting the phone in airplane mode for some time does not help, and neither disabling 3g networks for a couple minutes. I also tried a reboot which did not help. The only working solution seems to be patiently wait till it works again.
I would not swear on this but I think this issue started when I flashed stock 360. I am however 100% sure that this was not happening, say, a couple months ago.
I am not even sure there is a problem with the phone, there might as well be some problems with the carrier.
anyone experienced anything similar?

I have had my Xperia P for about a week, and I've noticed on multiple occasions that the signal notification fluctuates quite often. It goes from 0 bars to 4 or 5 and back to zero quite a bit.
Also it tends to not receive data via mobile connection unless you go into airplane mode and go back to mobile data.
This is not a "death grip" issue because it will do this on the table even.
Any thoughts?
it gets kind of annoying.
I'm probably stating the obvious, but have you tried a reboot / other phones?
My Xperia also shows some fluctuation in the signal strength, but no different than for instance my old HTC Hero. However, I never have to go into airplane mode or anything to receive data.
Hey,
Im having kind of the same problem with my Xperia S. When I set the data trafic on, the "3g" sign on the very top of the screen pops up, but dissapears after just 1 second and I dont get any internet connection. The phone has done this before, but then the connection comes back after 10 seconds or so, but now its been gone for 2 days. I know I have full coverage where I am, so its not that.
I've tried and turn the phone off and on again but it didn't help. I have also tried turning data off and on again but nothing seems to help. Is anyone having the same issue as me?
Please help!!
Also going via airplane mode
Hi!
Having exactly the same issues as brdl04. Going via airplane mode is needed like twice a week.
Using Xperia P with firmware 6.0.B.1.564, Swedish operator Telenor.
Wondering if this is limited to specific apps/situations, as I mostly (and nearly always) need to activate/deactivate airplane mode when I need Spotify in online mode. Other apps seem to work fine, sometimes.
I hope Sony will release minor updates too. Seems like they are fully focussing on ICS. Looking forward to it.

Hello, folks!
I have a rooted I9100 (Android 4.0.3 stock from Vivo, baseband I9100VILP3, kernel 3.0.15-I9100VJLP7-CL371396 [email protected] #3, compilation IML74K.VJLP7, CSC I9100UVILP3).
Sometimes I have problems turning on WiFi, it keeps always turning on and neither become active nor allow me to turn it off again. I then need to reboot phone to fix it (when it reboots, WiFi comes turned on and gets on normally).
Another problem I have with it is that sometimes (average of 4 - 5 times a day) phone loses registration with carrier. It completely loses* signal and shows a "prohibited" icon where signal strength is shown at status bar. (Edit) Sometimes it comes back again in a few seconds and sometimes it stays at that state, making me have to reboot it to fix the problem (turning on and off airplane mode doesn't work; in fact, with registration lost and trying to use airplane mode, it doesn't turn off and only fixes with reboot).
*Actually, it doesn't lose signal (can be seen in "settings - about phone - state" screen uploaded), but only unregisters from carrier.
(Edit: screen/phone language is Brazilian Portuguese)
I've downloaded another modem driver but never had time to test it.
I don't know if both problems can have the same cause, but both of them are very annoying (especially signal loss) and I'd like to make some tries to fix them, so if anyone knows what can I do (even data collection to investigate them), your help is very appreciated.
Thanks
Additional test (ServiceMode)
When I was in the forum to post this thread, I've noticed this other thread and I've decided to use ServiceMode code (*#0011#) to investigate further at the next time my cell lose signal. Unfortunately, it showed absolutely nothing. Literally nothing (just "ServiceMode" caption and no text on the screen below).
I just spent the time to post this because I know that, even if it has shown no information (on screen), maybe it still can be a clue for the cause of the problem.
Thanks
Pls help!
Does anyone have some light to shed on this case?
Please, I do really need to fix it, at least the signal loss problem.
Thanks.
Same Issue in the US on Tmobile
Mine started doing this just a day or two ago. Exact same issue. I can kind of operate on the EDGE network but 4G fails, only WiFi seems to work. T-mobile doesn't seem to have a fix for it.
Changed to MIUI
I've just changed to MIUI (reflashed modem also – now it is ZSLPE instead of previous VILP3).
I still have issues with carrier register loss, but until now it always reconnected after a few seconds. Maybe it is a carrier issue and not a phone one.
I don't turn on WiFi a lot, but all times I've tested it, it worked well.
Another thing I've noticed with this change is that battery temperature while charging used to reach 48°C (118°F) or even 50°C (122°F) while battery level was low (less than 50%), but now it stayed around 35°C (95°F), which is completely acceptable.
[Q] [pseudo-solved] Device occasionally loses Internet connection for WiFi & cellular
The Problem:
I recently upgraded to the Motorola Moto X Pure Edition and have got almost everything running smoothly except for one thing - every so often, (between 2 and 8 days) the device will completely lose its Internet connection for no apparent reason, displaying the little exclamation point next to either the WiFi or cellular signal strength indicators. It usually happens after transitioning between WiFi and cellular (leaving home, arriving home, etc.).
Once the device enters this state, no amount of toggling WiFi, data, or flight mode will allow the problem to be resolved. The device will simply refuse to cooperate with any type of Internet connection at all, even though it still has an IP address, as reported by the ifconfig command in the terminal. No addresses, local or otherwise, can be pinged.
Rebooting the device always brings it back. Clearing the cache and dalvik cache seems to make it last a bit longer, but this has yet to be confirmed.
Troubleshooting efforts and device configuration notes:
A web search turned up nothing at all, although two other people in the original thread on the Moto X Pure Edition Q&A forums revealed that I'm not the only one with the problem. My device is running the stock, Android M Rom, (rooted) but others have reported the same issue with a non-Motorola Android N ROM as well as on the stock un-rooted Rom.
This leads me to believe that the issue isn't Rom-specific, and may not even be device specific. With all this in mind, does anybody have any good tips for troubleshooting this? Any ideas for what could be causing it or how to fix it?
Thanks!
TL;DR? Device loses all Internet connectivity on all connections, usually after transitioning between Cellular & WiFi, on stock-rooted Rom, problem reported on stock and non-Motorola Roms as well. Software or settings conflict suspected.
Update: Hard reset; problem solved. No cause was ever uncovered. See post 7 for all the details.
Internet loss breakage Logcat
Here's the Logcat, if that helps. I tried getting a complete one, but had to cut it off after close to 45 minutes, so there still should be plenty there to go off of.
Any ideas?
Anybody? Any ideas at all? I'll even accept shots in the dark at this point. Made it a record-breaking <9 days, but the problem came back again, even with "Cellular data always active" switched off.
anything? anyone?
Ran into the issue again today, even having left WiFi manually turned off. Any ideas on this? I'll even take shots in the dark. Anything short of hard resetting and reinstalling apps & reinstating settings one-by-one.
Internet dropped out again...
Had the issue again today, but this time caught it "as-it-happens" (as I have only once before). This time, I woke the phone up and saw the exclamation point over the WiFi signal strength indicator, but was still able to use the LTE data connection. Resetting the cellular radio put a stop to that as well.
Any ideas at all? I'm taking complete and total shots in the dark at this point too.
Still losing Internet connection on WiFi, then cellular as well
Same deal again today. Any ideas at all? Anything I can do short of pulling the plug and hard resetting?
Hard reset; fixed
Well, I ultimately pulled the trigger and hard reset the device. The problem appears to have permanently vanished, but we will unfortunately never know its cause.
I'm having random connection drops on the latest EU build. I tried reflashing the ROM, installing akhilnarang's vendor, changing kernels buy still no solution.
The phone will work well but suddenly lose mobile data (4G) connection for a few seconds and then come back. I noticed the VoLTE icon also disappears with it and then comes back but the network signal lines (on the status bar) show full signal the whole time.
Also, I'll suddenly drop a call sometimes and this is accompanied by the network signal lines disappearing (implying loss of network signal) and then coming back in a few seconds.
I have a very good signal from my carrier so that's not the problem. Also, the phone seems to work well for sometime (few hours) after a restart and then this "bug" comes back and I can't find any kind of solution to this.
This problem started to arise after I flashed the latest EU android Q build.
This bug is annoying and frustrating especially while playing online games.
Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Many problems after Android 10 update
I have the same problem after updating my smartphone to Android 10, with no solution !
While i'm using data connection, i don't receive all the notifications in time.
I'm facing another weird problem which is the phone does a fast reboot after that it freezes for some seconds.
Same Ish
Same issue here, when streaming or downloading, my wi-fi or data connection will randomly drop and wont reconnect unles i reboot. Then will drop again once i start to download or stream. My other phones or laptop no issue.
Connections are good, as im writing this am streaming on my laptop but my poco refuses to connect to our wi-fi. Issue only popped up after the latest update
So I recently got the Realme6 8GB + 128GB, and it's a great phone except for this issue where it doesn't work on my Wifi sporadically.
It will be completely fine browsing reddit for example, then just refuse to load anything despite the wifi icon showing full connectivity. Typically turning the wifi on the phone off and on resolves it easily enough, but it's becoming a constant albeit sporadic thing.
It gets back to normal once I restart the phone but then again it goes back again.
I can't even play PUBG with a constant ping anymore. It's always jumping from green to yellow, yellow to green, despite having a 20 mbps data connection.
I have tested my wifi with my other devices and there's no issue with them, so I know it's the phone.
Any advice or anyone know how to fix this?
wifi issue
i also have a problem with the wifi but mine was when the Bluetooth and Wifi is turned on... the wifi can't receive data or the bandwidth(?)/frequency(?) are in conflict.
This issue happened in update which was before B.45 (B.37 is name of that update i think) I thought it will be fixed in B.45 but it still persists and it is very irritating.
Issue resolved in B.47 update
