As the title says, periodically wifi connections will cause my note to loose connection to the network. I will get the "no signal" crossed circle where the cell signal strength bar would be located....after that happens i have to restart my phone to reestablish the network connection. Wifi is not affected. No amount of toggling radio switches or going into airplane will affect the network loss...only a restart.
I am on the stock att Rom at the moment.
Anyone else experience this?

Every time I've encountered quirks with WiFi and cell signal on my android phones airplane mode for 15 seconds or so has fixed it. Odd.
Hopefully someone else chimes in for you. Bump.

could be a placebo, but i have noticed it seems to work as well.
Same here, but I do airplane mode on / off quick fast no wait.

Had this problem with a non stock modem.
Haven't had it with stock. Telus device here.

Anybody have a fix for this issue?
Seems everyday, I will have to turn on airplane mode to jump start my mobile network. I'll see a signal (3-4 bars) and 4G/4G LTE...expect the signal bars will be gray. I always have to activate airplane mode and then turn it off, to reconnect to the mobile network.
I've reflashed my custom GB ROM (Flapp's) and no luck. I still end up having to do this at least once a day. I don't know....
RIL / Modem conflict perhaps?

This just started today but my 3G signal is sporatic going from 3G to 1X. Anybody experiencing this? My signal even drops completely.

Let me guess...
You are on an MTD ROM like MIUI CM7, (or some variation of CM7)...
The 3G data dropping out is a problem that comes and goes on many people's phones that can usually be temporarily fixed by toggling Airplane mode or a reboot.
There is no known fix at this time
But... if you are not on an MTD Rom, then disregard my reply
It's also a known fact that the Fascinate has a terrible radio chip. Whether on MTD, modified TouchWiz ROMs or stock, my signal constantly goes from 3G to 1x. Hopefully my wife(Nexus Prime) won't do that.
Hello everyone, this is my first post here. Awesome, I know. I was curious if any of you experience a weird wifi issue. I have full signal and the bars are indicating things are good, but I cannot access my internet from my bed. I can move about 5 feet towards the door and it works just fine. My old EVO 4G wimax has never had a problem, and could work outside even. Do you all think I just have a bad phone and I should return for another one, or is this maybe just a glitch that others are experiencing and i should just wait for a fix.
I have the same issues with, and without, the best wifi performance enabled.
I'm open to suggestions, as I really love the phone.
I have had this happen too. I don't believe the number of bars showing is correct. And that in fact the signal was weak.

You can try to disablr then reconnect again. Sometimes this helps. I also have mine set to 2.4ghz only and I installed wifi manager. I haven't had any wifi issues since. I hope this helps.

Try to set it to 2.4 only. My router doesnt like it any other way.

Does your router firmware show you the signal strength of each connection? I would leave your phone in the room that is causing problems and then check the signal strength. Also try this just to be in the clear:
Forget network on phone, delete and release lease on router (if you have it set up this way), reboot phone, reboot router. Now try to reconnect again.
The above is always worth a shot. Reply with results and we'll take it from there

Thank you all for the advice. I changed this to 2.4 ghz only and it works perfectly now.
I have similar problems even after the update that I though fixed the wifi issues. Now instead of it reconnecting like you said it shows connected and I have to cycle it on and off to get it to work. Very frustrating. Guess will have to wait for an ota again.

Is anyone else constantly losing 3g? I can be in an area 1000 feet from a tower and I still drop to 1x. It happens all over the place. Resetting data through ##3282# does not resolve the issue. The only thing that helps is going in and out of airplane mode

They are working on the towers

That seems like such a blanket answer to any signal issues. If it were just towers in the process of being upgraded, why would cycling airplane mode on and off fix it? Why would my girlfriend's iPhone still have 3g? I just wanted to see if this signal issue was at least not unheard of.

When you put phone in airplane mod, it disconnects from tower, then reconnects when you turn your mobile data on. Your girlfriend iphone doesn't have the mod to show 1x. Plus the last radios update was buggy. Hopefully sprint will rectify it soon.

Just to possibly clarify on what the OP stated, I think I'm having the same issue. It would be nice to know that this is just a tower thing for right now, not a problem with this highly anticipated amazing phone...which isnt so amazing right now.
BTW, I live in Largo, Florida, and I've noticed these 3g drop-outs all over the Tampa Bay area. The frequency of these dropouts is very strange though. Heres my issue with it, maybe this is also what the op is experiencing..
The phone is on, 3g works fine, texts go through, internet works, etc. All of a sudden for no reason, the 3g icon disappears. I still have 2-3 bars, but text messages and internet, etc., does not work. After weeks of this, I put the mobile data toggle on my homescreen as a widget, sometimes i can click that off and back on, and 3g comes back, sometimes it doesnt. Lately, its been more on the "doesnt" side. So then I'll be texting with someone, 6-10 text messages in, I get a "failed to send" or "could not send" message. I'll still have the 3g icon, but i notice the "data arrows" directly underneath it do not fluctuate. I understand its only a graphic, and may not be a true indicator of upload and download. anyways the only way to get messages sending again is to reboot the phone. And now lately, that too has been "sometimes working". This will even happen if i switch to wi-fi, the messages still wont go through.
Its very frusterating, seeing as how other sprint users I know are not experiencing this. (they dont have an Evo LTE)
Hi
I have a query, I live in a part of the city where my signal reception is pretty poor. So I get a lot of dropped calls and some times msgs don't get delivered to me and calls from other people don't reach me and neither can I call. However the bars in the network zone are always showing a strength of 3 or 4 bars. Initially turning the device into airplane mode and then turning it off used to work at times, but now it doesn't so I don't know if that was a placebo. However now most of the times the issue is resolved by restarting the device. It works 90% of the times I'd say. Sometimes I don't even realise it but I get a bunch of messages when I wake up so I know my phone ws not reachable.
I'm planning to change my network soon, but I was wondering what does restarting the phone actually do and can that be mimicked by doing something else which is a little less time consuming. Also is there a way to know if I'm not reachable to the other person, the bars in the signal strength icon don't seem to be accurate at all.
Anybody?

Are you already on a rom or just stock?
Not sure if this would be any help but maybe a network booster app of some sort would help.
as what the dude above me said, network booster app might help you out on that.
rebooting would force your phone to look for signal the intense way (that's how i see it xD hahaha)
perhaps changing to another network would be your best bet

Thanks for the replies. I'm on stock ics as of now. I was told those network booster apps are just Crappy but it's well worth a shot. Any recommendations?

Works for me.
hey is anybody experiencing mobile data disconnected most of the time,
im on meanbean rom, and i been experiencing this ever since i got the phone is pretty annoying because i use the network alot, i have to turn it off/on if that dont work, i also try airplane on/off but i have to do that most of the time. We have no 4glte in CT still but i have not experience this with my other evos
is there away to fix this, so it could be more stable i dont think the problem is with sprint, i think is my phone,
a have also flash the night mode zip, update my prl and profile seem to help but not for long
any help thanks
This is an issue with every lte phone and it has to do with your network mode. If you don't have lte in your area switch your network mode from cdma/lte to cdma only. You should keep a steady 3g connection after that.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
yeap. most networks are now on eHRDP or whatever its called and sometimes when it loses connection it takes a while to re-establish no idea why. for simplicity sake just turn your LTE off and move to CDMA (auto PRL) for now. then you wont get any drops.

I have LTE coverage and this happens to me at least once a day. If I leave my phone off for a little while and come back to it the 4G symbol will be there but it will be grayed out and will not upload or download and eventually it will say disconnected. The only way to fix it I can tell is to cycle Airplane mode which sucks but it is what is it. Glad to see its everyone's problem not just mine.
