Hello,
Recently, I've been losing data connection randomly. Calls/sms work fine, but I have no data connection. I've found that this typically happens when I leave my home wi-fi network, and then I have no data connection. This also happens randomly, data is working normally, then an hour later, I lose data connection. When this happens, the signal bar is still blue, not grey. Usually, after turning airplane mode on and off, it fixes the problem.
Does anyone know why this is happening and is there a fix to this? I've done a nv_rebuild before, and that may be my last resort.
I am rooted, running Dubbsy's 4.2.2 GE ROM. I would post this question on that thread, but I do not meet the minimum post requirement.
Thanks for reading, and let me know what you guys think!

I'm having some strange 3g hiccups lately. I'll elaborate.
sometimes while browsing etc the phone will hang on 3g connections (eg does not even resolve DNS). the data connection icon keeps cycling the 3g and H symbols; at each new symbol switch the upload and download arrows seem to 'do something' for some instants then they fail and start the cycle all over again. I don't even seem to find a way to resolve the issue as putting the phone in airplane mode for some time does not help, and neither disabling 3g networks for a couple minutes. I also tried a reboot which did not help. The only working solution seems to be patiently wait till it works again.
I would not swear on this but I think this issue started when I flashed stock 360. I am however 100% sure that this was not happening, say, a couple months ago.
I am not even sure there is a problem with the phone, there might as well be some problems with the carrier.
anyone experienced anything similar?

Hi, I'm currently using ICS Passion v10.6. I do not have a data plan, but am always connected to wifi at my house (router is usually about 3 feet from my phone).
Often my phone will lose google connectivity (wifi and signal bars will go gray), and often, usually when i leave my phone untouched for a while and then check it, i will notice that wifi had been lost and it does not reconnect until i turn the screen back on. I have the wifi sleep policy set to never sleep (keep wifi on: always), and the battery info says that the wifi is constantly on.
I was wondering if a different modem would help or if it is a bug in the rom itself or the kernel? My wifi and google connections would constantly be on 24/7 when I was running bionix v1.3.1. I've tried flashing the KB1 modem which bionix uses, but i get the same result.
Thanks for any help
Hey Devils,
I've had some of the same issues, aslo using 10.6. If I leave my phone alone for a bit it seems to stop getting notifications from data. The best example of this is I use Trillian IM and I can be chatting on it. Finish. And put it aside for awhile and not get any notifications and then when I hit the power button all of a sudden I've got 30 IMs waiting for me.
I have tried several different Vibrant ICS modems from this thread but they all caused big issues for me. some caused massive power drain but all of them caused my lock screen be unresponsive when I hit the power button and I'd have to wait for the screen to blink out and hit the power button again to be able to get access. The same would happen when I get a phone call, sometimes the screen just would not respond when it lit up for an incoming call. I think it was because it would start searching for data connectivity (so it seems related to the problem which makes me think it's not modem related)
In the end, I went back to the KB5 modem and my screen issues seem to have resolved. I may try Passion 11 soon and I'll post results if it helps, but right now I'm not ready to do another change on my phone.
-update- I just checked and saw that v12 is out now and has both a kernel update and an update to wifi. I'll probably try that tonight.
-update- I think this might be being caused by "Deep Sleep" causing the phone to shut down it's data antennas to turn of to save battery. I've installed "NStools" on my phone and set it to set the min CPU freq. to 200mhz to see if that will prevent deep sleep. I'm not certain this tool will work 100% on this build, but we'll see I guess.
I'm also running the Vibrant without data, using wifi to do things with the internet.
Since flashing ICS I haven't had any wifi issues on the two networks that I've used. Seems odd that you are now having them. Have you tried a different hotspot?
I have had issues sending text messages. I can place and receive calls, receive texts but can't send any. Have you had any of these issues? I'm curious if it has to do with the lack of data plan.
Hello, kind of a noob here, so im hoping this is an easy question. once every one to two minutes, my Wifi will just drop, then reconnect 5 seconds later as if nothing happened. Its an issue because if im trying to watch a video and this happens, it automatically ends the video and acts as if I just tried to watch the video without ever having connection. And it's not my rom, because I've tested other roms and it still occurs. It hasn't always happened though. Anyone having a similar issue? Suggestions?

Wifi or cellular data?
Are you sure you dont mean cellular data? If you're using it everywhere, it is mobile data. If you really mean wifi, power down your router and start it back up, works for most troubles i run in to.
I really did mean Wifi, not data, and I restart my Wifi regularly (for work I do at home) and that hasn't fixed it. Unless you meant something different by "power down" my router

My wife's verizon GS4 has CM11, last M build, I think M12?... Anyways, it has a nasty habit of losing its mobile data connection periodically. She has to reboot the phone to restore data access, and she may not notice for hours, when she hasn't gotten any emails or hangouts chats in a while. As soon as she comes home and connects to the wifi, everything comes through again.
Also, her wifi gets stuck sometimes, where it will just lose connection, and trying to cycle wifi just results in it getting stuck on "turning wifi on..." or "turning wifi off...". Again, the only remedy is a reboot.
Does anybody know of a fix for this? Should I try to get her phone flashed over to a GPE rom? Should I move to a lollipop GPE rom if it exists? If so, is there a "best" way of backing up / flashing / restoring outside of titanium backup everything?

[Q] [pseudo-solved] Device occasionally loses Internet connection for WiFi & cellular
The Problem:
I recently upgraded to the Motorola Moto X Pure Edition and have got almost everything running smoothly except for one thing - every so often, (between 2 and 8 days) the device will completely lose its Internet connection for no apparent reason, displaying the little exclamation point next to either the WiFi or cellular signal strength indicators. It usually happens after transitioning between WiFi and cellular (leaving home, arriving home, etc.).
Once the device enters this state, no amount of toggling WiFi, data, or flight mode will allow the problem to be resolved. The device will simply refuse to cooperate with any type of Internet connection at all, even though it still has an IP address, as reported by the ifconfig command in the terminal. No addresses, local or otherwise, can be pinged.
Rebooting the device always brings it back. Clearing the cache and dalvik cache seems to make it last a bit longer, but this has yet to be confirmed.
Troubleshooting efforts and device configuration notes:
A web search turned up nothing at all, although two other people in the original thread on the Moto X Pure Edition Q&A forums revealed that I'm not the only one with the problem. My device is running the stock, Android M Rom, (rooted) but others have reported the same issue with a non-Motorola Android N ROM as well as on the stock un-rooted Rom.
This leads me to believe that the issue isn't Rom-specific, and may not even be device specific. With all this in mind, does anybody have any good tips for troubleshooting this? Any ideas for what could be causing it or how to fix it?
Thanks!
TL;DR? Device loses all Internet connectivity on all connections, usually after transitioning between Cellular & WiFi, on stock-rooted Rom, problem reported on stock and non-Motorola Roms as well. Software or settings conflict suspected.
Update: Hard reset; problem solved. No cause was ever uncovered. See post 7 for all the details.
Internet loss breakage Logcat
Here's the Logcat, if that helps. I tried getting a complete one, but had to cut it off after close to 45 minutes, so there still should be plenty there to go off of.
Any ideas?
Anybody? Any ideas at all? I'll even accept shots in the dark at this point. Made it a record-breaking <9 days, but the problem came back again, even with "Cellular data always active" switched off.
anything? anyone?
Ran into the issue again today, even having left WiFi manually turned off. Any ideas on this? I'll even take shots in the dark. Anything short of hard resetting and reinstalling apps & reinstating settings one-by-one.
Internet dropped out again...
Had the issue again today, but this time caught it "as-it-happens" (as I have only once before). This time, I woke the phone up and saw the exclamation point over the WiFi signal strength indicator, but was still able to use the LTE data connection. Resetting the cellular radio put a stop to that as well.
Any ideas at all? I'm taking complete and total shots in the dark at this point too.
Still losing Internet connection on WiFi, then cellular as well
Same deal again today. Any ideas at all? Anything I can do short of pulling the plug and hard resetting?
Hard reset; fixed
Well, I ultimately pulled the trigger and hard reset the device. The problem appears to have permanently vanished, but we will unfortunately never know its cause.
