Hello all.
I've been having a strange thing in my XPS since I've updated (officially) to ICS.
Randomly the data connection simply stops working.
Basicly I've got full signal, the 3G signal is there, but the H stops showing and no connection at all. I never had this problem in GB...
The only solution is to reboot the phone. As soon as I do that is working again, till the next failure.
Any ideas what might be happening? And the web brwosing in ICS is so much slower... In GB is was almost instant, in ICS is... Awfull. Should I go back to GB? None of the new things in ICS really interest me.
There is some reports about this bug,you have to wait for an update or try another firmware.

Same here.
When I leave my home network in the morning I have to reboot my phone because data is not available until reboot.
If later connect to any wireless network the data traffic comes back like always before.
Same is with my home network. If the phone is connected to home network and I force data, it's always working, only the morning is problematic.
I'm using ICS 4.0.4

Same problem here.
It just randomly stop to communicate even if the 3G or H icon is there. A samsung guy told me it may be an incompatibility between the ICS kernel and the modem firmware. No issues while connected to any WIFI.
Fixed with a reboot. Never happened to me with GB.

Same here, a reboot solves it, switching data off and on again, or going aeroplane mode and back don't do anything for it.
I have the same issue after updating to ICS.
I use preooted stock ROM.
Any updates on this issue.
Can anyone recomend ROM version which does not suffer form this issue?

Any one any suggestions on this ? It's really getting annoying...
same here, and because of that. im stop using Juice Defender anymore. JD cut the connection and reconnect few minutes after based from my setting just to save some battery juice, and this bug really annoying since i cant get any connection even JD reconnect. instead of reboot. im switch off-on data.

ive noticed that after every 12-15hours my data connectivity shuts off completely. only solution is a reboot. this never happened on gb. annoying indeed.

.452 original firmware, update via sony pc companion
Anyone contacted sony mobile about this issue to inform them for the coming firmware?
It's probably in all ics versions (.58 firmware here).
I've updated as well via Flashtool and now data doesn't work at all!!!!
edit: i just had to configure the apn, lol

same here (sony ICS rom). i talked to sony about one week ago regarding this issue. they told me that this comes from my sim card. i told them that i've never had such a problem with my SE C510 but they insist that the issue can only be solved with replacing the card... i do not believe this. i see the little arrow appears below the "H" and that means data is sent but not received. still turning off and on the phone once a week.
I am having this problem too on UK generic Android 4.04 build number 6.1A0.453
No fix yet?
How's possible Sony is not aware of this problem?

I would actually agree with what Sony say here, I was away for a few weeks and used a forign SIM card for that duration. Not once did the Data stop working, that included hopping between Wifi, H, 3G, E, etc.. So Maybe it is a SIM issue ? SInce I came back I also updated to the newest ICS release and haven't seen the issue yet.
I have the same problem and it's extremely annoying. I lose data connection after about couple of days. It doesn't make sense that this is a sim problem because GB was fine.
I have ICS 6.1.A.0.453.
Same here, I am sure its not the sim card, comm'on!!!
Did you ask to Customer service? They know jack****... lol

Upgrade to 2.45 firmware and no more data problems. I don't know if it's the same with the combination if latest fw and older custom kernels though.

Hey guys.
I can't be the only one having this issue...I've searched the forums and found others with Wifi issues, but I don't think they're the same.
Since upgrading to 2.1 my Wifi takes about 10 seconds longer to connect and it randomly turns itself off. I know there was an issue previously. When the signal is lost, wifi disconnects as well. Anyone have any idea if there's any way to fix this, or do we have to wait for Sony? *cringe*
Edit: I actually have very good signal where I am, so I'm beginning to wonder if that's even the problem. I don't really have signal drop issues. I'm also able to browse/use anything Internet related when wifi is on. It just turns itself off whenever it wants.

Any chaance you have a battery saving app running?
Hey if you have updated the firmware from Sony companion, than do what I say it will solve your problem. Grab a generic global firmware (u will find it from xda itself) also download a flash 2.1 x10i (available on xda). Now flash the firmware. Your problems are solved.

I flashed my 2.1. I did not update through PC Companion. I fail to see how this would help, as I've flashed 2-3 times since Nordic's 2.1 was released and I always experience the same thing.

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...

kinda still having the issues but i have been dealing with it and trying out different ROMs to see if those are any help at all... so far its intermittent
Same kinda style here ..
When i am on my mobile data it's fine , but as soon as i connect to a wi-fi it become grey and no more data (mobile/wireless) is working ...
Tried many ROMS , Radios , all the same...
That new leaked radio they got doesn't work here in Bakersfield the 1.77.36p
Shoot I was lucky to get 00.04 mbps download and 00.01 upload
When I reflashed the previous radio I got 05.00down 2 up mbps much better one

Yes I found this to be true as well. The new radio (1.77.36) dropped signal for me often and the speeds were lower than with 1.77.30

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
This is real weird. As of last week sometime, my phone will stop all data connections or wifi connections after about 6 hours post reboot. The only way for it to work again is to reboot. I'm assuming it's an app of some sort causing this because I did a fresh install and the problem is persisting. I have uninstalled all new apps I've installed over the past week as well. Anyone have anything similar or possible solutions? Running CM7 N214 & DCs 8.9.1.

I was actually seeing this as well, but not consistently enough to report it. Was happening on all the nightlies I'd been on after n13x (which was one in the 15x range, and a couple 20x ones). When it did happen for me, it was usually about the same time of day, so I think it might have been on a 24 hour cycle (I don't normally power my device off, so it was probably hitting at 24 hours after the reboot to fix the last one). The strangest part was that the connection icon color would continue to show a google connection, and if I was on 3g the up/download arrows would light as I would expect. Just no data traffic. Was running DC8.9.1 on all of the above nightlies.
this is not so much of a wifi issue but i did loose my data connection twice in the past month. the first time i was outside and i wanted to check my email but i couldn't. i was abel to send and receive texts messages and was abel to make and receive phone calls but no data was available and no internet. i try re booting the phone but still no data. about two hours later i check to see if i have internet, and it was working all by it self. not sure if this was my phone or a AT$T network thing. the second time i was leaving from my home wifi to my AT$T 3g network but the data connection was unavailable, no internet. but this time a reboot fixed it. i have had my aria for about a year now and this has never happen before. this may vary easily be a network, cell tower thing and nothing is wrong with my phone.

That definitely sounds like a network issue because it's not repetitive or consistent.

Hi,
I've been having the wifi/data drop issue since 2.3.7. I was hoping nightly 242 would solve it. No mas. Lost data connection after ten hours. Flash 208 and all data/wifi issues disappear.
Stock kernel. DC's kernel doesn't seem to affect the issue for better or worse.
Will keep lurking over at the developers forum...
John
I use the stock kernel and I think this problem is affecting my Aria too. Wifi usually doesn't die until about 2 or 3 days.
Flashed 243 and DC's 8.9.2a kernel yesterday. No data loss all day and was still connected this morning when I woke the phone up. Just flashed 244 and 8.9.2a. We'll see how long connection lasts.
John
I had to reboot my phone running stock 242 today. Wifi showed connected but the Market took almost 60 secs to open. Opening "my apps" didn't work. Reboot cured all.
The problem has been narrowed down to drowningchild's kernel. If you are using this kernel, just reflash your nightly to revert back to the stock kernel and all will be fixed. To follow this problem since it is not fixed yet, refer to this kernel's thread in the development section.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA Premium App
For me, the problem started with 2.3.7 and continued whether I ran DC's kernels or not. Flashing nightly 208 eliminated the problem, but of course, who wants to go backwards?

Did you do a full wipe when going Fromm 2.3.5 to 2.3.7? I haven't heard of anyone with stock kernel issues.

I'm pretty sure some over in the "Nightly builds starting!" thread mentioned drops with the stock kernel.
No, I didn't do a full wipe. So far, I haven't noticed any drops since 244 with DC's 8.9.2a kernel. Fingers crossed.

Oh, ok. I just didn't recall any, but I could be wrong. I think for best results, you need to full wipe when going from 2.3.5 to 2.3.7. Also, I have heard that 8.9.2a is still dropping for some with the recent nightlies. I have had no problem with the stock kernel, as I did a wipe when going to 2.3.7.
I was the one having probs with the stock kernel, but a format and flash of 242 fixed it. Been running fairly good since then.
I did a full wipe and flash of N245 + DC 8.9.2a tonight. We'll see how it goes tomorrow. So far, GPS locks in less than 5 seconds.
FWIW, I also did not flash the very latest gapps, the 08282011 version. Does that matter?
John
OK, the big drop came about fifteen hours after wipe/flash w/8.92a. Airplane mode toggle did not bring connection back. Flashed N245 again. This time I'll try the stock kernel and see how it goes.

Now I know what's causing the random restart or freezes. It's my network connection. I posted 3 days ago I think, that I have a weird problem on my Xperia S. I troubleshoot, tested different roms, Stock, custom roms, GB or ICS, and what I noticed is that, when my network signal drops down (totally no bar), then immediately full bar, after 30 seconds - 2 minutes it reboots. I also did turn on the airplane mode, and yes it didn't restart. But I'm really confused because every time I'm using my phone for voice call (1-6 hours non stop voice calls), no random reboot! please help me understand guys.
By the way I'm using stock .58 right now, I relocked my bootloader and no root, but the random reboot is still there.
about same problem here,my mobile network disconnects for some seconds every about 5 minutes.the network I use at the moment is 2G.
I think we should wait for ICS!
could it be a hardware problem?? my phone fell from about 1 meter high, I'm a bit frightened :-s

Hello, I've installed some firmwares ([email protected] 7, Erachter v5, CM9.1 FXP141, CM10 FXP141 and other original firmware), and all of them had problem connecting to the operator. I'm from Brazil and I removed the device in the store talking and after I did the upgrade from 2.3.7 to 4.0.4 android by Sony itself (PC Companion), my phone could not get over the carrier signal. Do you know tell me which baseband I could install to test?

Try to use another sim card, for testing purposes only. Not same carrier as yours, see if it is working.
Hi, thanks for the feedback. The chip is working because I left the carrier and was talking. When I got home and updated from Gingerbread to ICS through Sony, said no more ... could you tell me which file I could use to update the baseband?
I updated my C6833 via the Sony Update Service tool to 4.4.4 and have noticed since the update that my wifi drops in and out and it seems to show that it is running on my mobile data network for a brief second whilst wifi is connected. I don't remember this happening in the past.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
can you try something for me, please?
install a terminal emulator, like juice SSH. run it and connect to 'localhost'.
go very near your router and do
ping your router's IP
let it run for a while, see the response times. are they consistent or do they fluctuate?
stop it by pressing ctrl+c
exit by either closing the window or pressing ctrl+d if your keyboard has it (like hacker's keyboard)
WiFi was really bad this morning. Connecting, disconnecting and reconnecting every 1-2 seconds. So I tried switching to the 2.4ghz channel of my router from the 5ghz and it seems to be stable now. Not sure if my router or phone is the issue.
No issues for me. Using C6833 ftf on C6802

did you ever tryed a custom rom that required to unlock the bootloader? Often had that which a 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 nightly build from CyagenMod after updating.
solution for me: restore TA-Keys and use the repair option in the Update Centre.
stock rom, never rooted, never unlocked bootloader.

Have you tried factory reset? Since no one is able to help, I'm guessing that's the logical step.
Yes, I am on Stock ROM, did a reset and still the same thing.
The device connects and disconnects over and over till the phone gets hot, and drains the battery
i guess we have to accept that this is just bad engineering, either software or hardware.
Next phone is not going to be android... already my zu is slowly dying, usb port doesn't connect very well, i have to keep the cable very straight (have tried at least ten cables, it's not a problem with the cable) to have a good connection... and i am sick of firefox losing pages and redownloading them costing me time and money.
