[Q] 3g stoped working, ideas? - Motorola Droid RAZR

Hi all,
I went on vacations, had my phone on airplane mode most of the time. When I came back I turned airplane mode off and now I can only connect to 2g antennas, if I select 3G only I don't get any signal.
When I try to manually search for network operators I get a "Connection unavailable" message
Any idea of what might be going on/how to fix it?

I flashed cyanogenmod to see if it was the radio driver but that didn't help

When I select 3g only I can't even configure apns, I don't even get cellular signal.

Don't select 3G only. Use automatic.
Also if you have subscribed to a 3G plan, keep your data connection ON and try a restart.
Even face this often as i travel between two distant places once in a month. First time i did a factory reset. But second time onwards this helped.

[Q] internet connection loss

Good day everyone. I have been using my samsung vibrant for weeks now with no problem. i noticed today that i couldnt connect to the internet through my stock browser. so also apps like the xda app and facebook book app will not connect to the internet, while my internet indicator is showing connected (both 2g and 3g).It keeps displaying ""nodes for the connection is not available" on the browser. However, at the same time i have able to connecting and use other apps like ebuddy, yahoomail e.t.c. My vibrant is unlocked and purchased from the US but presently using it in nigeria. My APN settings is still the same way since i started using it and my service provider, MTN, says all is well with my connection. This has occurred three times today... each time i had to switch off and back on, or turn on and off the flight mode for it to work sometimes.
Please, any help on how to resolve this?
Apparently our phones lose data connection when they switch from 2g to 3g or vice versa. To prevent it from happening at all go to settings -> wireless and network -> mobile network -> network mode -> and set it to gsm only to lock it on 2g OR wcdma only to lock it on 3g.
Thanks reform. I have tried choosing only 2g and even tried choosing only 3g...but the problem still persist. I had to turn my phone off and On severally for me to have my internet network back now. Is there any other way I can resolve this?

Hello everyone. Please can someone help me with this problem? I have tried everything possible but the phone kept cutting off my internet connection, but only for my browser, Facebook and xda app. Each time it displays 'node not available for this request' it actually deducted from my data plan but not connecting me. Any help please?

WiFi problem

Whenever I'm on WiFi I also have the 4g on display. Is this normal? I'm on stock.
No, it's not. When WiFi is on, you should be getting your data exclusively via WiFi so data over cell signal is stopped and the 4g symbol disappears. Are you sure you are connected to a WiFi network?

Yes I am 100% sure.
Same happens to me at times. I just turn data on then off and it goes away.

Hey this happens to me too!
Very annoying!
Also what's up with the phone switching back my preffered net work every time I reboot? I tik off "cdma only", but after reboot the phone puts it back to gsm/cdma...Grrrr
But yeah sometimes I have to turn off the data ( "connect to internet via phone") or it will intermittently switch between data and wifi

to whoever has that issue, do you use a data counter? just to verify where your data is going through
Happens on all my Androids. Not sure where my data is going through when they are both up in the Status bar. I don't ever hit my cap, so I am fine with it, but it is annoying.

Well, this is my second android phone and I haven't come across this issue before.
I would suggest that you check that your software is up to date. If it is, then power off the phone and pull out the battery, wait a minute then reinstall and power up. If that doesn't fix it, then I would factory reset it, but that's always a pain. If none of my suggestions fix it, then I'm at a loss.

This is because of "My Account" app by tmobile. It runs in the background and uses mobile network for connection to tmo servers (even if you have wifi turned on). Whenever you see mobile network turned on, just goto running applications and stop My Account and 4g/3g icon should go away. Its not just this phone, this would happen on any android device with my account app.

GPRS connection problem

I jus got my brand new NEO V.. It's still unrooted..!
I activated the gprs pack on my carrier i.e Airtel(I live in India)..
But on the 2nd day itself I started experiencing gprs problem..
Even though my gprs is turned on, the "E" signs with those up-down arrows are still appearing, but I can't access the internet after sometime..
The gprs works for sometime but then it stops working as if it gets tired..(Lol!!).. then I've to restart the phone, again turn on gprs, it works for sometime & then freezes..!!!!
All my APNs are correctly set..
Whats the problem and whats the solution for it..??
All help is appreciated..
Can you test your SIM card in another phone? If the same SIM card have problems in a different phoje then th probpem os related to your provider. Then instead of rebooting the phone just swith to airplane mode and then turn off airplane mode, this way the phone will register again. I had similar issue some time ago with a Nokia phone, problem was solved after switching provider.
If you have a very old SIM card it will be a good idea requesting a new one.

Have u tried to simply disable and enable the "Data Enabled" setting on "Settings ---> Wireless & Networks ---> Mobile Networks" ?
This will make your phone to disconnect and reconnect to the GPRS network.
Some network operators could disconnect GPRS connections if there is no network activity during some time. So, check if the network disconnections are after some inactivity periods of time.
Yeah it should be operator problem I know airtel very well...:banghead:

The reason why airplane mode works is because it turns off the GSM radius and other stuff, switching the airplane mode on/off have the same effect as doing a reboot of the device. When you turn airplane mode Off the phone will register in the GSM network again,
It's your carrier's fault

3g stopped working

This is a weird to me. Currently using CM10 and using the network selector to change to roaming when at work (via Automatic selection). Yesterday, when I changed back to home network, my 3g signal wouldn't come back.
I've tried toggling airplane mode, wiped cache, but I really am at a loss as to how to get my signal back. Looking at the Phone info, it appears that I do have a sort of signal. If love if someone could help me out.
