As it says in the post, my Photon's 3G and Wifi stay on simultaneously. There is no handshake being done to settle which one is supplying the current stream of data and I can't figure it out. Sometimes the only way to settle things to get it to work right is to either turn off Wifi to let it settle to 3G, or turn off mobile data to let it settle to Wifi. I get between 2 and 4 bars here.
I've tried doing a factory restore, wiping internal and application storage... but when I got back to the home screen, all my settings were still the same including the desktop background, ringtones and a few other settings. The applications obviously were gone.
I then tried SBFing to 154_5 but I could see the icons doing it again before I even tried to activate. I had planned to let it just update to 198_6 OTA and hopefully fix the problem in the process, but I just came from that so I don't see it fixing it this time.
I'm in the process of SBF'ing 198_7 since I hear it has a 'data fix'.
Anyone have similar issues or resolve?
I once had a problem where 3G turned off when my wifi came up, then never came back on. I had to factory restore it. As for your hand off issue, I've never had that particular case happen. If you're going to stay stock I'd definitely try 198_7. Why not play with CM7 thought? I've been waiting for it to stabilize a bit, finally jumped in with the 1/26/12 build and it has been working awesome for me.

I can't find a raw CM7 build. The only ones I'm finding are people's weird ROM's of it...
In all actuality you shouldn't have to touch anything. I personally leave 4G and wifi on all the time. If the phone can't get a WiMAX signal then it automatically switches to 3G or roaming. The photon automatically switches between 3G and 4G as necessary.

Yes, well it's supposed to anyway. Mine doesn't. It does multiple simultaneously.
i have seen this many times on my mopho. also when im on stock and try to turn on wifi its say error and stays like that unless i reboot about 4 times
Fix for Wifi
Sorry to ask about this, but is there a fix for the wifi connection for unlocked photon? I've been looking for hours and I'm coming from the nexus s 4g so I've had it easy. I'm on cm 7.2 and needs some sleep. Thanks for tolerating my noobness.

Hey guys, running Das bamf 1.4
I dialed ##778 edit mode and all that. clicked enabled I did that last time but now I can't go 3g I pulled out the battery complete restart all apps. And yeah any help? I'm running das bamf 1.4 stock kenernal (I spelled it wrong I know, doesn't matter u know what i mean)
-THUNDERBOLTS ARE GO!!
I am having the same problem right now. I was on BAMF 1.4 and it was running great. I flashed Tesla and I could not get on 4gLTE. I restored back to BAMF and still no 4g. I might go back to stock and see if that fixes the problem.
Try wiping everything and then reflash the rom. And when i say everything i mean cache, dalvnik cache, phone data, etc.
I know i know, what I just did was go to settings SD and storage and did a software rest. Now it works
I did the factory reset 3 times. I also wiped Dalvnik, and battery stats 3 times. I finally just unrooted and went back to stock. That fixed it. I just rooted again and installed Tesla Coil without any problems.
Main troubleshooting steps:
Battery cover all the way on? You'd be surprised on how common that issue is.
Is there network issues within your network? There have been here in NJ.
Have you tried a battery pull? It's amazing what that can fix.
Is the 3G signal too weak? It could say something like -83dB but still, no 3G for me sometimes.
The list of things to try goes on and on. I can't blame a ROM for something that could more than likely be user error or network issues.

im in Jersey too...do u know the specific problems?
i get what i guess u can call spotty 3g...sometimes go to do something in app that requires data and nothing happens for a while then 3g shows up..sometimes I initiate browser and that makes it connect to 3g
For some reason my phone was in LTE MODE. I switched it auto prl. In 3g back.
Hi there
long time reader first time poster here...
searched and found nothing...
running the latest gingerbread AT&T official on a AT&T atrix (currently unlocked and running on the Rogers network in canada)
i seem to be having an issue with my Atrix lately(or at least been noticing).... normally when i am connected to the data networks fine, my signal meter and H+ are is blue...
what has been happening is if i leave the phone alone for some time (usually 20+), it just disconnects from the data services... all my signal meter and H+ meter turns grey... when i "wake" the device it takes a couple seconds to kick back to blue... when this is going on i go into my gtalk and i see it had signed me out and that its trying to sign me back in.... same thing with alot of other apps, like my issimo app, its been sign out, or hasnt received any new updates since it turned "grey".
how do i stop this? is this a bug? something wrong with the OS? will i have to reflash?
any thoughts on this would be appreciated!
thanks!
UPDATE:
had battery save mode on nighttime, so i thought that was the issue... so i changed it to performance and doing that had no effect at all... still losing data after a while of it being locked...
any ideas? could this maybe be some residual affects from a battery saver app i add?
i really would not like to reload the OS...
anyone got any ideas?
i'm finding any solution for the same problem, some atrix lose data signal, motorola says that is a software problem but i dont find a fix for that yet, any idea?
It's a software issue on Motorola's end. I'm having the same problem. I haven't flashed a custom ROM yet, but my friend had the same problem and he said when he flashed Gingerblur it was fixed.
when i seemed to notice it was when i had upgraded to gingerbread... so what i simply did was deleted my APN, rebooted and entered in the APN again, and that seemed to have solved it
@OP I don't use GTalk so I can't comment on that, but the signal than that you described is EXACTLY what my SGS does running on stock Froyo rooted.
I don't know if its more battery saving or what, but I tend to miss more calls in weaker signal areas when my phone has been on idle for a while.
I too am looking for a fix because of that. Also my Atrix sometimes acts the same way on Froyo, but I haven't used my Atrix in a while...

why not upgrade your radios to the latest AT&T has to offer? 1.97.00 see if that helps?
im having the same issue
anyone knows why this is happening? i have cyanogemod 7, i reflashed the phone, and when it started i restored but the problem just keep going
I have a very similar problem. When the H+ is lit up blue I have a network connection. But it will switch to grey then internet ect stops working ..still have signal (4 bars) any ideas why it keeps switching?
I've had the same issue ever since I first got my atrix. I've tried many different roms and it does it with every one. Ill have great signal n my browser will direct my to a no data connection page. I have to reboot or turn airplane mode off n on to get it going again. I have like a month left on my warranty gonna try n swap it out n see if a different one will fix the problem
Hello,
I have been having some issues with the Gin-Sen-Tazz Rom for Eris. First of all, this ROM is AMAZING. It is extremely smooth and easy to OC my Eris on this one. The only problem is that my data just drops on its own. Now, I've been wanting to list this on the [FIX] 3g Data drops on GB Sense Roms Thread but couldn't due to my less than 10 posts (or post it on the actual Gin-Sen-Tazz ROM thread). I'm not sure if my problem is the same as those on the [FIX] 3g Data drops on GB Sense Roms Thread. I've done those steps but still it just drops. The way it does it, usually when the screen is off and after a while of inactivity, it just goes out (the whole 3g/data). As if I manually turned off the data. When I try to turn it on (either via the widget/shortcuts or through Settings) it just say "turning on..." but doesn't. I have reverted back to a different ROM but remember something saying about..."Radio" something something in the "Wireless Networks / Mobil Network" check box. The data will never turn on unless i Restart the phone and even then it turns off after a while. I've installed the ROM MANY times, done all the wipes, all the Reverting Back to Stock and all that and avoided doing the *228 AFTER the ROM install. I'm hoping one of you genius' who are inventing these things, and by the way - GREAT JOB! could help me out. Please let me know if I need to add something to this lengthy question.
Thanks!!!
Does data work alright when running stock 2.1 after flashing Flashback21 v2?
I'll post a link to your question in both the 3g data drop fix thread and the Gin-Sen-Tazz thread so more people can come and help you figure this out.
Thanks for putting this in the dev forums for us... I'll have to load up gst in the am and check, but if I'm not mistaken, there are some powersave settings that might affect that. I'll report back tomorrow.
thanks!

I'll do some digging around when I get a chance too. What radio are you using BTW? Not 100% certain its that but I know on inc certain radios don't play well with gb sense. I know when I was running gst with the hero radio I didn't have and data issues but I did with the radio from Eris ota. I'll do some digging though and see if I can find anything. One thing you can try in the meantime though. Instead of rebooting, have you tried switching airplane mode on for a few seconds then back off? Doing this usually got my data back on for me instead of having to reboot.

The 3g drop is a known issue w/that rom. It happened daily to me the entire time I was using that rom. If you reboot the phone, like the others said,you will get the data connection back. I think the airplane mode trick works too.

Yes, Sir. Works like a charm...I'm using xtraSENSE right now and it works great. I've noticed, you know how on some phones/ROM's you can go into settings and have it automatically turn off data after so long of not using it. I've had that option on my Thunderbolt (when the screen is off) and when you turn on the screen the data connects, well, its kind of like that, except, it never connects and the setting reads something like "Connecting to....." can't remember the rest. I've noticed the xtraSENSE automatically disconnects data but connects perfectly when I turn on the screen.
Thanks!

CS, yep I've tried the Airplane mode. When I do that, the mode turns on, when I turn it off, the data still does not connect...as far as Radio, I'm not sure where to find that (I even tried googling it). However, when I used that link to revert ALL back to stock and there was that option to do the radio thing as well, I did that step, too. I hope that helps and thanks a mill!

Yep, Powersave Settings lol that's the name I was looking for on my previous post. And that's a great way to explain it. I think, if that ROM had an option to turn that powersave feature off, I think that would be nice only because it would not turn off on its own. But that just seems more like a shortcut and I'm certain that, for you guys, its a piece of cake to get to the root of the glitch.
THanks!!

Yeah, I wish it'd work for me. Its a great ROM, I'd put up with it until it would get fixed.
yea post 3, 4 idk 5 more minutes
I'm ganna try turning the power save feature off on this Rom and see if that works. Great idea, never noticed that before. Only thing is for me it seems to happen more often when I receive a text or a phone call when my phones locked (or "off"). I did notice that when my phone is active and I'm using it, I see the data turn off (3g icon disappears) and I just get my phone signal, whenever I recieve a text or phone call. I have not noticed this before on other roms. But then again, I have been known to be very un-observent before....

Dunno if anyone is still following this thread, but I've had a small breakthrough with the data drop issue in the sense gb roms 3g drop issue. I had power saver mode disabled all day yesterday and my 3g never dropped! Still to early to say if this is actually working or if i was just lucky, but in my experience my 3g would drop at least 1 time a day and sometimes more. So far so good. I will report back again in a couple of days of testing to let you know if this is a working "fix".

Hey guys, lately my wi-fi connection has been very slippery, as if it drops and then reconnects often, although it remains physically connected to my router. I don't know if it could be my router since every other device in my home is connecting to it fine. My phone is able to connect well to networks outside of my home, though, so I am unsure. Do you guys think it's the routers fault or maybe a kernel issue of some sort (I'm running stock kernel)? I've been having this issue on Tranquility and Viper ROM (maybe also on Mean) so it can't be A ROM issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
sounds like u have a gaf phone man.. if every other phone in ya house connects fine.. its not the stock kernel.. also the update we just had the OTA was supposed to fix wifi issues.. so u mite have something up with your phone.. alot of people had wifi issues that why they had a fix in the for it in the OTA we just got... my phone did the same ishh before the OTA now its fine..
I drop 3G like It's cool but that's sprints problem, never had that issue on WiFi. This phone has very powerful radios.

Check your wifi settings and make sure that your wifi connection is set to never sleep. Also Check your wifi frequency band in "wifi advance settings" and make sure its set to 2.4 only. That might help.

There's an app in the Market called WiFi analyzer. U can use it to see what other wireless networks are operating in your area. It will also reccomend the best channel for your router to be on.
Sometimes there is a lot of interference on your channel and switching it will help or has helped quite a few people with your problem that I know of.
I had a problem at work with a linksys router not issuing an ip address to my phone consistently. What I did is take a screenshot of my ip address, subnet mask, DNS address defaults, etc. when u could connect. Then I made myself a static ip using that info. A good app that basically let's u run ipconfig and other network troubleshooting applications is an app called Fing.
I've worked on this issue far and wide. If the new ota didn't help and u still get random disconnects thru WiFi then u need to exchange your phone. It is actually a problem with the radio. My first EVO LTE did it and I could fix WiFi disconnects temporarily, but not permanently. This, my 3rd EVO LTE works great with no ota installed.
Good luck. Hope I was of some help. Pm me if u need more help.

For me, I was on a different channel than my neighbors with no other wireless device ever had a problem in the 12 years I've been there.
What I do, Go into wifi advanced and click on the high-performance setting.
Only use it when needed as it burns battery.
Post back if it fixes the drop issue for you. Fixed it for me.

Last night I flashed the awesome kernel and set the frequency to 2.4 seemed to go away. Today I flashed tranquility rls 1.a and I'm running it as is and having the issue again . I'll try out your suggestion throughout today and tomorrow, thanks for the tips guys!

I've been hearing about people talking about the wifi issues since day one, but never actually run into them. The past few days though I've been trying to stream and download things (exporting through dropbox) over wifi, and OMG, what the hell is this? Every 2 or three minutes the connection just stops - the wifi bars at the top still show the wifi connected, but the the stream or download just stops. Sometimes it starts up again, sometimes I have to disconnect from the wifi and reconnect. And the whole time the wifi indicator doesn't indicate any loss of signal - once in a blue moon though you'll see it disconnect then reconnect. I don't want to hit that high-performance setting (although it seemed to help the in the limited time I used it), because it uses more battery. I thought the update was supposed to resolve these issues. I know I never had these issues before the update. None of the tricks mentioned in this thread seemed to help. Just wanted to report the issue in case some other people are having it also, and hoping an update will come out in the near future to resolve it. On Viper4G, btw. If have time at some point, I'll try to flash another rom to see if I get the same issue.

It's kind of strange,mine has been dropping but the actual indicator in the status bar goes off when it does.I've seen it connect and disconnect 10-12 times per minute.I'm also running latest firmware/radios on the latest version of ViperRom.I'm also running Enoch's Kernel but not sure if I had the problem before the kernel flash or not.
im having the same issue. ive only really started noticing it because i was running chameleon pretty much since i got the phone and this never seemed to be an issue. now im on viper4g and my wifi will drop sporadically. it drops, i see the 3g icon for about half a second, and the the wifi reconnects. sometimes itll do it just once, sometimes itll do it continuously... the longest ive let it go before interfering is about 30 seconds. but my battery usage screen tells me that it goes on for way longer than that if left alone.
anyway, im on the lastest firmware, and i have the channel set to 2.4 (5 seems to knock everything in my apt, including my phone, off the router). i use the best wifi performance option sometimes, but as has been mentioned, it drains the battery. the phone wont sleep with that option checked. also, it seems to happen more frequently when im on the opposite side of my apt from the router.
ive read stuff about using a screwdriver to pull the antenna pins up a little, but that scares me. i dont really think that has anything to do with it anyway as ive tried that test where you squeeze the phone to see if your signal changes. it doesnt.
really, im kinda at a loss here. im thinking that i might try to exchange the phone if i cant get this figured out soon, but i dont want to do that if its something with my router or if the replacement is going to do the same thing.
I am using Viper 4G and have been having issues with my wifi connection dropping but more recently my phone has been restarting only while connected to Wifi. I haven't tried changing the wifi Frequency band to only 2.4GHz , but I will once I get home after work. I hope it works because its getting kinda annoying to have my phone restart so much while its just sitting idle.
I believe the rapid connect/disconnect issue some of us are having is also related to the phone not playing nice with particular routers. HTC referenced that fact when the 1.22 OTA came out. The changelog said the issue was fixed on how the phone communicated with certain routers and the disconnects should be eliminated. I can attest that the new update has made it a little better, but still not 100%.
The router at my work has been perfect, I've never disconnected from it once.
The router at my house is a whole different story. I have given up on downloading a ROM with my phone, directly to my phone. I will start the DL, sit the phone down and go do something, only to come back and find "download unsuccessful" every single time. I know it is because it is disconnecting. I can sit there and watch it happen.
The router at my friend's house is fine. Connect once, and never worry again the rest of the night. Obviously I need a new router. More obviously, HTC's software needs fixing. I shouldn't have to buy a new router just so one of my devices can stay connected to it.
Interesting seeing all these reports of dropped connnections with Viper4G. I've been running it for a few weeks and have never had a connection drop while it was in use on either the 2.4ghz or 5ghz bands of my d-link router. This thread over here suggests that replacing your Sense Settings.apk with an AOSP Settings.apk solves the problem for some people. I can't verify since I wasn't experiencing disconnects, but the AOSP menus are cool anyway
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1824465
My issues (detailed above) have apparently resolved themselves. I haven't lost connection once today, and I was streaming and downloading all day.
I don't see how this actually did anything but here's what I did. I decided to try another kernel instead of the stock one that comes in the viper rom. I knew the wifi fixes that HTC supposedly made were in the new kernel, and I knew I wasn't having any issues until I updated, so I thought I'd give a custom kernel (based off the old base) a shot, and play around with some new governors and overclocking while I'm at it. I did a nand backup and flashed awesome sauce. Wifi issues were gone, but I didn't like the kernel, stock seemed smoother. So i restored my backup, and for whatever reason, my wifi issues remained gone. Like I said, I can't explain it, but there you go.
Nice to know I'm not alone with this. My Wifi drops every so often, particularly at night time or with downloads. Hopefully HTC figured out a way to sort this out 100%.

If you have a wireless router like myself that operates at two distinct bands, go into your Wi-Fi settings and choose the band that is at the higher range, and setting best performance is also a good idea, although this might result in greater battery drain. HTH!

Hi guys I'm a newly registered user but by no means new to the site. I'm having trouble with my Thunderbolt's Wifi getting hung up on "Wifi Turning On".
To give you a background, I was using Licquid ICS MR2 when this all started. It ran flawlessly since MR2 came out and I flashed it. I tried fixing permissions, that didn't work. I've tried multiple radios to see if that would help, that didn't work. I formatted data and wiped dalvik and cache using ext4. Installed MR2 over again, still the same. I followed the same process and upgraded to MR3, still the same. I also tried ICY-S thinking maybe that version of the ROM was causing it. Still doesn't work. So i'm back to MR3 at this point. I still get 3G and everything else seems to work great.
The only thing that I've noticed that has been different is recently I started receiving 4G service in my area (small town). I've tried turning data off, tried turning LTE off. All with no luck.
Is there a chance that my wifi adapter could be damaged or does this sound like more of a software issue? Any help would be great.
Thanks
Pat
Yeah I have this problem usually after a while it does turn on but I think it's a bug in the leaked ICS build just wait for the rooted OTA to be posted and that'll probably fix it.

Its a new problem though for me. It always turned off and on when I asked it to. The normal data problem where you have to turn wifi off and on again always happened to me but I knew how to handle that. This just started happening, I guess I'm not understanding how all of a sudden this just starts happening. I hope that rooted OTA comes quick.

Tried the radio that santod posted. It gets me 1X that's it, but its pretty fast so there's no way its only 1X. But that didn't help the wifi cause any.
