Hi All - I am a UK Orange user and I have searched all over the place for a resolution to my problem
This morning I turned off the dormancy mode to see if it would help me at all in getting better network speeds and it appears that doing this process has caused my data connection to turn off.
When i look in the options I can enable the data connection but I never get the icon at the top nor do i actually have the ability to send or receive any data from my phone
To resolve the problem I have flashed my phone with the latest RevoHD rom - this has not worked
Flashed the latest Siyah Kernal - this has not worked
Re-Enabled fast dormancy - this has not worked
Checked my APN settings and they all appear fine
When i try to search for a network provider I get the following error - Unable to change networks during data service activated. do you want to disconnect the data service and change available network
When i press OK the changes appear to be made I dont appear to have any data connection
Please can someone help me out in this situation as its starting to concern me
I look forward to your help
Many Thanks

Hello everybody!
Someone of you has noticed a poor WiFi reception on Hero?
I'm experiencing a poor WiFi reception in my house when Hero is connect to internet thru an access point.
What happen is that after WiFi connection has been established the phone tends to loose it and restart connection thru GSM/3G link.
That happen also if phone stay in the same place without moving around and also when phone is close to access point location.
Any idea about way to solve the problem?
Regards.

Just an upgrade on issue...
If I turn off data connection thru GSM/3G and switch on WiFi seem that WiFi connection is stable so maybe issue come when both data connection are enabled...
Anyway is annoying shout down each time data connection on GSM/3D and power on WiFi!
Regards.
i believe wifi goes idle when not in use. so it connect to 3g or edge. However there is an app if not various in the market already to help keep wifi always on..
Do a search for wifi and see for yourself.

Thanks for suggestion!
At now I've solved turning off GSM/3G data connection when I'm at home anyway I guess that WiFi reception sometimes go away due to issue of the phone or maybe as way to save battery...
when that happen phone stay unconnected so I guess that should be better if I will check for apps that keep WiFi connection always working!

when the device goes into standby, the wifi is turned off to save battery poweer, and it will go back to 3G.
go into the wifi settings, press menu and select advanced.
select the timeout options
set to never and it will not turn off when in standby.
problem solved and you shouldn't have to turn off Mobile data, although with the settings widget on your homescreen turning mobile data off off each time is hardly going to ruin your life. in fact i tend to do this anyway, just cos i have spent too many years with windows mobile....
Here's an annoying bug I've found tho - on TMob UK
If I send an MMS from home, wifi on, it sits there, and doesn't send the message. Until I turn off wifi and 3G kicks in again.
Now I know for a fact that on my Magic, it was able to turn on 3g/HSPDA to send the message all by itself. Might have a look in thodse advanced settings tho to see if there is something I can do.. Not a biggie, just a bit of an annoyance.

I too, have been doing a search on Forums all over Google looking for a resolution to this.
I have noticed if Wi-Fi is enabled I am unable to send or receive MMS messages.
It is an annoyance having to turn Wi-Fi off each time also I am never to know if someone has tried to send a message in the first place.
Currently using T-Mobile G2 (rooted with MCR Rom 2.8) on T-Mobile UK
Hey all,
I have a very odd problem that is actually apparent in the HTC Desire forums by 2 other people. (found using the search that comes up when starting a new thread)
When I use my phone on WiFi the data is automatically turned off (I'm assuming because WiFi takes priority, however when WiFi drops, the data does not reconnect and I am left with just the reception bars for SMS/Calling.
To fix this I must either cycle aeroplane mode or go to Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names > Vodafone Internet and then when I'm in the editing screen for that APN the data reconnects.
I have tried making a shortcut directly to the APN settings using LauncherPro activities shortcut but the data will only reconnect if I take the long way (or cycle aeroplane mode as it is a quicker fix)
Please help, this is very annoying as my data doesn't reconnect when I leave my home WiFi in the mornings until I notice it half way through the day.. missing many important emails
Thanks in advance.

u could use a widget to toggle the APN (extenedcontrols)
but i had the same problem on my old Desire from Telstra until it was updated to Froyo and then i never had the problem again.
What firmware version are you running? Also are you running Gingerblur, gladatrix or stock?
1.57 with gingerblur. Thanks for the tip about toggling the apn I will try that soon

I've tried searching and haven't found anyone with the same issue as I.
Jellybean broke my wifi, I had no connection issues before whatsoever.
Now, it still shows it's connected to the network with full strength but when I go to use the internet or any apps, it says there is no network connection, webpage unavailable, no autosync, etc. Things are fine when I go back to 3G and nothing has changed on my phone but the JB update. I've turned Sprint Optimizer off and on, deleted and manually readded all the wifi networks, and am not sure what else to do besides hard reset. Any ideas? Also, I am not rooted.

have you done a complete network reboot (cable modem and wifi router) when having the crappy sprint connection optimizer off?
if this helps you feel free to hit the thanks button
Thanks for the help! I found the answer in another thread... Seems JB automatically turns on "DLNA auto-ip" for some people. The fix that worked for me was Settings>Wifi>Menu>Advanced and uncheck "DLNA auto-ip" at the bottom.
Hey guys,
Wasnt sure where to post this. Have a question regarding wifi conection settings. I was on omega v34 and everything was fine. My phone connected to all wifi networks I wanted it to. I updated to v35 of the rom and now I have a strange problem.
My phone still connects to my house wifi and work wifi, but refuses to connect to my parents wireless. Ive reset their router, changed the password and removed the settings for the network on my phone. When I refresh and attempt to connect to it all I get is "authenticating" and then it will give up. It is a BT home hub and the strange thing is that my phone will connect to the 'free wifi' BTwifi-with-FON and the BTwifi, but not the proper network zone BTHub3-T2G6. Its incredibly annoying.
Are there any hidden settings in my phone that may have the wrong settings for the network in it?
Any help would be appreciated
EDIT: Just turned the security off on the network and the phone connects fine. I dont understand why the security key would cause problems as it connected before the update and the settings havent changed.
check my sig
Hi all,
I've been using my Samsung Galaxy W for quite a while now, but have only recently given any serious attempt at setting up the phone's 3G connection. I have entered the correct APN data for my provider - using Telstra after unlock - and all settings are correct, as I was initially successful in getting a data connection. However, I ran into an issue when I shut down my phone. Whenever I start the phone back up, I get a glimpse of the 3G icon in the message tray, but after Media scanner has done its thing, that 3G icon then disappears. Initially I could no longer connect via 3G, no matter what settings I fiddled with.
Eventually, I found that the only way to fix the error was to dial *#*#4636#*#*, access the phone info menu, and then to manually enable the data connection. Even more confusing is that when I hold down the power button, my phone states that the data connection is already, and always was, enabled. My packet data is also on... and the phone has not put itself in flight mode. Also, as I said, the APN settings are definitely correct.
Does anyone know why I must manually enable the data connection whenever I restart my phone?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Paul
Phone is rooted and running gingerbread 3.3.6
