Not a data loss issue but:
I haven't had a problem with my razr since the update, but after my wifes update, her razr will turn off wifi now and then if the phone sleeps too long. Sometimes within 10 minutes. It happens more times than not.
On .748 my Razr was always locked on strong with 4G on.
W/ .173 I've been having nothing but complete data drops even though it still shows 4G and I'm in 3G in places where I had a strong 4G on 748
Does data drop mean losing 4G and then wait for a minute and then comes back. That's what I've been getting lately. It doesn't even switch to 3G. I never had that problem with my TB sigh

Yeah I too experienced data drops. But once I switch between 2g and 3g networks there are no drops for sometime.

I've started having several after update. Hopefully Verizon will drop an update soon. Surely with this many of us having this issue, has to be a known issue.
While I haven't had any data drops since the update, I have noticed I have a much weaker signal. I was under the impression this update was supposed to reverse that.
For me it fixed the day by day data droping. You may need to reset the phone.
P.S I hope it gets fixed soon and I know all to well how much of a pain it is.
4G is blazing fast, but when I go on my home wifi it is SO SLOW it took three minutes to load google. Its not the router because my brothers phone is fast on wifi. It is rooted, and if I try to activate Bluetooth the whole phone shuts down. Also I can't use OTAs, it downloads them but stops installing about 30% the way through. Any fixes for this?
Im have the same thing going on....I was on Tmobile....using the galaxy s 2...when I connected to wifi...very fast....now im with Verizon the 4g lte really fast...but when connect to my wifi....vey very very slow.....I need help too!!!!!

I have an unrooted Droid Razr and anytime I am in Verizon's Extended network I drop all data. The signal strength fluctuates from -67 to -99. Most of the time while I travel it is between -75 and -90. I have enabled the global roaming and I changed the voice privacy settings after I looked on the forums. Any ideas of things to try? When I contacted Verizon they suggested they could have lost their "agreements" with the other carriers to cover 3g. Two weeks ago I was using a Droid Charge and it worked fine.
Same here. When I first got this phone about 2 weeks ago I had a strong 4g connection which would rarely drop to 3g, but for some reason now I'm constantly dropping all data connection and its draining the hell out of my battery since the phone is constantly searching for a connection. I'm on a stock razr running. 2.3.6. Anyone have any ideas?

Had this problem a few days ago, but haven't had a problem in 3-4 days. Been getting great signal and data speeds lately.
I rebooted my phone this morning and so far so good. I haven't dropped my 4g connection yet. Battery life is still at 91% coming off the charger at 7:30 CST this morning.
Edit : this is a maxx

How do you reboot the Razr Maxx on stock (not rooted)?

Update, started dropping data connection again. I guess I'm going to have to call Verizon.

My wifes phone is complete stock and has been having data drops and restarts. Never dropped or anything done to it. Gonna have to call Verizon.
I have dealing with the same crap, look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1549021
Most of the time, it happens at 24h-36h up time, but can happen at 10min or wait 50hours. I have not droped data for a few days, but have not used the phone much at all.
P.S I am NOT in a Verizon's Extended network area. I am in a 3-4 bar place or even right next to a cell tower with 5bars.( That is BS)
I was tolled that I use the phone too MUCH and I need to turn it off EVERY night. Now I am thinking AT&T with galaxy s3 is the "fix" I need to get a LTE phone that works right.
I'm running the latest ota (verizon), lost root and haven't restored it. My problem is the constantly dropping wifi. It's always done it, but now it's forgetting my password every couple of days. Anybody else or anybody know if a solution?

I had same issues with the password after flashing the ICS GSM T-Mobile leak .it reminded me that i had same problems with my hd2 and solved it by seting my AP encyption from TKIP to AES. Still have rare data drops but no more password loss.
I've only ran into this issue once or twice using Wifi buddy beta and Juice defender. Uninstalled the latter and seems to work fine. But I'm also on BW ICS.

I'm having the same problem. I just spent 30 minutes on the phone with Tier 2 tech support with no solution. He said he would open a ticket in my name. The problem is Verizon will say this is a Motorola problem and respectfully no offer that much help.
Searching around the Verizon forums I found this:
If your Droid's network traffic stalls/freezes while you are on wifi, check your wireless router for the WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) option. Disable it and see if that fixes your problem. On my router it was under the QoS Setup (Quality of Service) tab. Netgear WNDR3700. My wifi is very stable now that I've turned that off.

I'll try changing a few settings on my router but I really think this is a Motorola problem.
My phone has less wifi strength than my last. Its probably my router settings however i cba to change them

I think it is too. Backup assistant has never worked on mine and Verizon opened a ticket, closed it two weeks later without ever resolving the problem.

Try turning wifi, then manually deleting the saved profile for your wifi network(s).
Oh, and [email protected]#$ Backup Assistant. That is all. :-D

You are right about that, i'm just lazy and didn't want to manually input the contacts since I never added them to google.

My WiFi issue was fixed by switching to the Eclipse ROM and haven't had an issue at all. If you're rooted, give that a go.
My phone doesn't even detect my neighbours connection.
My xperia x10 could detect my entire street
Did anyone solve this problem yet. I should have to put a rom on my phone just to fix this issue. Its been twice today that I have lost my home wifi connection. I am on att uverse and I dont have the password memorized. Any help would be appreciated.
The solution that I found is to switch between channels...
Although again wifi strength is much poorer than my previous 3 year old phone..

My wifi signal keeps getting lost even if I sit in front of my antenna. It holds for a few minutes than it drops. Seems to hold for everyone but me. I'm on stock 4.1.2. Anyone knows a wifi code for configuration or a trick? Tired of the switching to 3g and back everytime. Thanks in advance.

Yep a lot of us have this nonsense. Tried a lot of things, nothing worked. There were users who successfully solved this problem by reconfiguring their router to wifi signal G only or N only, can't remember correctly. But it's more like workaround and not solving the problem itself.
I use a free app called WiFi reconnect. It will keep you connected by reconnecting if it drops automatically.
