I've noticed lately I'll be able to connect to data one minute and the next I don't.. even though I have full bars and the 4G icon is spewing its orange lines... only thing that fixes this is a reboot, then magically I have connection again.
I'm running stock 11c... anyone else have this issue?
My wife had the same problem a couple days ago. Our rom is stock 10o. At least this phone boots a lot faster than my old atrix.

I've experienced that as well. I'm currently using the ported stock Jelly Bean Rom and I have the 4GLTE symbol with the orange bars but when I try to load a YouTube video, it'll keep loading without showing the video. But when I reboot, it'll start it, but then when I want to watch another, it will just keep loading. I can still load up the Internet and the xda app but I can't watch videos.
Edit: So it's not that it won't load videos, it just takes a long time. I believe it's just not receiving LTE like is has before.

You may have tried this, since you mentioned the only thing that fixes the data connection is a reboot, but have you tried putting the phone in airplane mode and back again? That works for me when mine is stubbornly showing there's a data connection where nothing is happening.

I have done the airplane trick and that temporarily fixed my issues when I was on the stock rom. I also went in and got a new sim which seemed to help. I haven't noticed it as much since the new sim.

I've tried turning data on and off but that doesn't seem to work... haven't tried airplane mode yet.
I'm on 10o and I'm having the same issue with data. It is the radio because I've had this issue with other phones in the past and with them I had to flash different radios for a fix. Hopefully it will be fixed when they release the official JB for us Att users.

Weird huh? I'm going to try the new v2 of the rom and see if that might help. Fingers crossed.

I've got the same problem as well. Often times when I am in an area with full bars and I get the 4G LTE symbol, I get no data at all.
I'll chime in and say I have the same problem as well. It affects me both on WiFi and on HSPSA. I can only describe it as incredibly annoying.

Anyone else getting random data drop offs? Happens a lot for me. I see data and all my bars for a few seconds. I am on latest release of CM7 with latest radio that works with it.

Mine did this but only because I had juicedefender. The data would get stuck and the phone trying to fix the problem would restart the whole process android.phone. I would imagine this would happen with any data toggling service. Hope this helped

Wifi has this weird issue where it wants to scan my home network even though its connected a million times to it. Almost like it forgets lol. I usually have to disable then enable it; not a big deal i guess but still a bug for sure!

Mine does the same but after I wake the phone I have no problems. Maybe a 3 second delay reconnecting.

Release notes would be great. Photon WIFI/VPN is putting out extra packets which are then blocked by some routers. If the wireless router is used as a router and not an AP and IP6 is disabled, the problem seems to be corrected (i.e.: no reconnection failures in over a week when it used to happen every 2/3 days. See motorola photon forum for more details.)
My wifi seems to work pretty good at work and at home. I havent noticed the phone constantly scanning but I havent been looking for it either.
as of today my phone will not connect to wifi at all... release notes and date would be very much appreciated.

Me either always works and works great, also pretty fast as well. My issue is the voice/3G radio locking up and then the phone reboots.
so it seems some are having a WIFI issue and others voice/3G... rather odd thing going on there.

Might want to check and see if that said the 19th, pretty sure you guys don't have any MR's this week.
Can anybody tell me why sometimes when trying to connect to the web or Facebook or anything that uses the internet, why sometimes the 4g symbol just stays there with no transmission lines being sent and receiving? I know when trying to connect the orange lines go in and out of 4g. I will be in the same spot with my fiance. She has an IPhone 4s with Att. I hit the Facebook and or the web at the same time on her phone. Hers connects right away. Mine will just sit there and load and load. Nothing being transmitted. Then after about 30 secs it connects. I don't understand. At times it will work and other times. It seems to be getting worse. I called at&t and they are going to send me a replacement phone not through insurance. But from samsung. Does anybody else experiencing problems like this before. I will have to sit there and wait for my phone to connect while my fiance is already surfing. This will happen in different spots. But whenever mind is not connect my fiance's iphone 4 s connect with no problem. this is my second Note doing the same thing. Is this how its supposed to work?
By the way I have already done hard reset clear cache and everything possible

hey guys. I just got my gs3 two days ago. love it. when I got it, I downloaded all my apps over WiFi. worked perfectly. today I tried downloading an app over 3g and it just won't download. it just sits there with the rolling bars but the download never starts. it's nearly 12hrs so I guess it's not a Google problem plus downloading over WiFi works.
I cleared data and cache for the play store, switched off my phone a couple of times and still nothing.
everything is stock and not even rooted yet.
took forever to download all my apps (slow WiFi) so I want to leave factory reset as a last resort
is there anything else I can do

I am on 3G. network speeds are decent around 3 mbps. had no problems whatsoever on my sgs1 even downloading while on edge.
browsing the internet and even browsing the play store is fast, it's just that it does not want to initialize downloading from there.
after a while the phone says it could not download due to an error 495

The S3 GT-i9300 is not a 4G phone.
Yes it is
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
Just because your provider may market Hspa+ (which is only an upgrado of Hspa, which is considered an extension to 3g and is often called 3.5G) as 4G does not make the device 4g. Wimax and Lte are both candidates for 4g (afaik there no official 4g) but Lte has won that war already.

please stay on topic guys. it's really irritating that I can't download or update anything over 3G on the play store.
I cleared play store data and cache as well as download managers data and cache
I rebooted a few times
did a battery pull, as well as a SIM card pull to clean it's contacts
removed my sd card
signed out of gtalk and signed in again (Google support page mentioned this)
Nothing helps. my galaxy s1 can download over 3G so why can't this one do it.
like I said before, I can download over WiFi
please help me. I can't be the only one who has experienced this

Might be a dumb question but do you have any data conservation apps installed? Sometimes those mess with those things.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
It's happen many times with me on 3G...
What I did to download?
Opend store start downloading a application...
W8 application didn't download yet
It is just showing the progress bar trying to download no data receiving
I leave it as it was ... Didn't wipe anything and just restart my phone
And bang now download starts...
Short note :- just start a download and after few seconds if no data receiving restart your phone
Check if it works for uh

Before factory reset try on another sim card... May fault from your provider's end...

Hopefully it stays this way

Either bad SIM (my first guess) or signal issues in the area (unlikely) hit up a store and swap out your SIM.

I'd run an RUU and see what it does, don't sweat the bars and if that doesn't fix it just give it a day or two. You can always run the RUU can call verizon and have them send you another SIM card.

When it spiked
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
According to both Verizon and HTC, there was a known issue with the phone software and not being able to read the SIM card. It happened to mine about ten times every week until an update was released to supposedly fix it in February. I still get the error from time to time, but far less than I did previously. If you've rooted and flashed a ROM prior to February, I would suggest making a backup and restoring the phone back to stock. Once you've done this, do the update to the new firmware and then reroot and restore from your backup. This should, I think, fix most SIM issues.
