So I am quite sure that I've got a weird issue with my Redmi Note 2. To make it fast I will just list the issues.
Phone logs out of all networks (Wifi and mobile data at least every five minutes).
Sometimes it just 'decides' not to receive or send data, wheter it is connected to the internet or not.
Mobile data is never faster than E, even within my monthly data limit and in areas with high speed mobile data.
Is very slow at times (and crashes approx. once a day).
Does not react for some few seconds every now and then (makes typing impossible/remixes music...)
The main issue is the connection problem. My provider combines two mobile data networks, so that the phone thinks it is in roaming sometimes. Yet all of this was not a problem at the beginning. The connection issue just suddenly appeared (after I was on vacation and used roaming). Not sure, if there is a connection to that, though. I already asked a more tech savvy friend of mine, but got no solution out of that. So far I have tried:
Installing a new operating system (nothing changed eventhough that exact OS worked perfectly on the same phone my buddy had).
Googling the issue and try to play with the settings to get it working properly again (again nothing changed).
What I don't get is why such an issue would suddenly just arrive and that apparently nobody else had that same issue. I would be more than happy about any help I can get. Besides the issues I like the phone (and don't want to have to buy a new one).

Hi,
The same problem is on my phone. Due to this problem, I couldn't use the phone at all, I bought another phone. Now my device is in the drawer, no different from zero. I have tried various roms, including lineage, I changed wifi antenna as hardware. The problem continues. Is there a solution to the problem.

I've had two Galaxy S II phones now, and I've had the same problem with both devices. The phone's wifi is great -- when it works. Although I noticed that the death grip lowers the wifi signal bar, I can still browse the internet and download apps just fine.
The problem is that, at times, the phone will show wifi connectivity and yet, I can't browse the internet or access the App Store. I'll have to shut off the wifi multiple times and even this doesn't work 100% of the time. Shutting off the phone and turning it back on works 100% of the time.
Since this has happened to two phones, I'm beginning to question whether I have an issue with the wireless router because I have not come across this as a prevalent issue. At the same time, my laptop and a family member's iphone doesn't have the same issue.
Anyone else having this problem? Or have suggestion for fixing the problem?
Thanks
Here is me showing the problem on video:
My roommate and I both have the Galaxy SII and he constantly has problems connecting to our wifi. The only difference in our phones is his is rooted and mine is not. I plan on rooting my one of these days but would like to fix the other issues I am having first.
Mine isn't rooted, but it still has the connectivity problem.
EDIT:
I may have found the the solution. Probably unique to my situation, but what I did was disable WPS on my router. It's a medialink router and I thought I had disabled it (per instruction) but it was on. Perhaps that was the issue. So far, no problem.
EDIT:
Nope, the wifi has dropped again. By dropped, I don't mean it drops in the middle of browsing. It seems to drop after I've stopped using the phone for a while. I've already checked to see that the phone is to never turn off the wifi when the display is off/sleep.
Arghhh
same exact problem.
wifi on moto surfboard sbg6580
did the static ip fix continue to work?
Any phone is the same.

Don't have any issue with wi-fi , mine is rooted on stock rom
i have no issues with wifi on my sgs2, i have wifi on 24/7, and on wifi proabably 50% of the time. it connects and disconnects when supposed to, picks up on cell data and drops when its supposed to..
fwiw, my GF has an iphone 4, she had problems connecting to the HOME wifi, but no where else, i updated the firmware on the router, same problem, i swapped out the router for a spare a friend had, and setup a second access point on the same network, just called it the same SSID but put a "2" after it.
her connectivity problems went away, immediatly she noticed a difference and has never complained of a drop since...
try different encryption methods, if you're using wep, try wpa, try a few different things.
also try a firmware update, you might lose your settings during a firmware update, but there is usually a backup/restore option you can use. backup your settings before flash, then restore after. if you have access, for at least testing purposes, hook up another router and use it to connect to and see if the same problems persist.
No problems at all connecting to a WHR-G54S running Tomato.
The Moto Surfboards are known to be flaky.
I had the same problem. after getting another one I found out that if I didn't download so many apps at one time the problem mostly stopped and after running a couple weeks, I haven't had the problem with connection since. I'm not sure it will help, but I did a factory data reset and reinstalled the apps one our two at a time (it's frustrating, I know).

Hi all,
I'm having a data connectivity issue on my phone when moving from 2G to 3G. If I'm connected to 2G, then move into an area of 3G coverage the phone will successfully migrate to the 3G network, however the data connection will often not start up for between 30 minutes and severanl hours. Flipping airplane mode will *sometimes* fix it, but more frequently, even rebooting the phone won't work. However, if I lock the phone to 3G from the settings, I do not encounter this issue at all. It only happens on my home provider (Jersey Telecom - they're small). In the UK, on Three, it didn't happen.
So, given that the problem can persist over reboots, and doesn't happen in the UK, it makes me think it's more likely a network issue, so I called them up. The network engineer managed to reproduce the issue on his colleagues Samsung Galaxy Note, but they are adamant that it's a phone issue and not a network issue, and is a matter of Samsung not sticking to the specs. The phone isn't currently rooted, but I can root it if it will help me debug the problem. From the sounds of it, it may be problem consistent to all Samsung radio phones on our network.. and I really don't want to switch to another phone.
They say that from their logs, the phone is not always trying to create (or presumably, migrate?) a PDP when moving to a 3G network. It's hard to say whether it's a problem with the phone or their logs.. has anyone else experienced a similar issue? Does anyone know how to access logs about the phone trying to create a PDP etc. so that I have something to compare with theirs?
Thanks

I've been having a problem with my S3 (International, on 3UK bought from Tesco), possibly since rooting and installing Paranoid Android.
Much of the time, I get a good signal (3 or 4 bars) but don't have any data - I can get texts, calls etc but no internet. Apps try to get out (ie they don't immediately say 'Nope, no internet') but eventually just time out. Wifi is fine. It happens pretty reliably in certain places, but they're places where I've never had a problem before and other people in the same place on the same network have no problem. For example atm I've got my S3 next to my HTC Desire, also on 3, and the Desire is fine while the S3 won't get anything.
I've unrooted and returned to stock and there's no change (still can't get my counter back to 0 but that's probably a different issue). My APN settings are fine, and sometimes it works great - I stream Spotify at work pretty much all day, for example.
Going into and out of flight mode sometimes helps for a very short time. Sometimes.
Anyone got any ideas? I've seen this problem posted on Android forums quite often, but none of the solutions seem to help me. It's bugging me to the point where I'm going to have to get onto Tesco's support - it's all but unusable a lot of the time.
Hey all, I've had my Evo for almost over a year now, and data was never an issue. As of lately, I'm unsure what caused this issue to start popping up, but my phone will have a 3G or LTE connection, but even if I don't move or leave the phone alone, I will lose the data connection and a popup in the notification drawer says "Unable to establish wireless data connection" where toggling data or airplane mode doesn't usually cause it to come back, it just does whenever it feels like it. I don't know whether it's Sprint, or my hardware, but this issue has been present for the past few months with no solution. I am on the latest radios, sense ROM, and learned about custom PRL's today (on 56019 now) and nothing has solved it. I've searched for anything on this device related to this problem and haven't found anything, so any suggestions or help would be appreciated
Any suggestion whether the issue is at least my phone or the network would be helpful. I have no clue what the cause of the issue could be. Thanks

I noticed this more frequently as well once I installed 4.3 a while back - seems like the radio is much more sensitive and would pop up that message occasionally when it would switch between 1x/3g/4g/Wi-Fi - or from roaming back to sprint. I just ignored it - dismissed message and all would be well.
however, sprints network has been more and more troublesome these past 4-6 months - actually switched to ATT beginning of May due to this after being with Sprint for 16+ years.
Is anyone else experiencing hang ups when using mobile data? Every so often (multiple times throughout the day) data stops coming in and I see the upload arrow on the LTE but no apps or data respond until I flip on airplane mode and back off. It's been happening every day for over a week and factory reset didn't help.
Happened to me a few times but not super frequent. It was random and I figured it was verizon data service and not the phone. I didn't see any downtime for vzw online though so I dunno. There's a security update and maybe that'll fix the bug if it is one as well.
I've noticed this as well.
I mostly get it when I launch the Google Search/Assistant app. I can verify it immediately because it's not listening for my voice input. Another way to tell is that the newsfeed that Google usually loads doesn't appear, nor does it attempt to auto complete any searches I perform. I haven't had to cycle my Data or WiFi on/off to get it to work, I usually just kill the app from the Recents screen and relaunch it, whereupon it launches and performs normally.
I have noticed the same thing when it comes to my google feed/google app.
Just happened again and it's pretty annoying. Can't figure what's causing it. I noticed Pandora wouldn't play and then tried to open my Google feed and nothing. Tried YouTube and a few other apps and still nothing. Did a reboot and all is good. Will try and toggle data off and on next time
Still happening. Randomly when browsing things won't load and I'll notice the LTE upload arrow and nothing works until I toggle airplane mode. Starting to get on my nerves.
Good to know it wasn't just me.
I'm all the way in Korea so I can tell you if can't be the network provider at fault here. Also the immediate recovery after toggling airplane mode and back also points to this problem being a device issue.
This is quite irritating...
Quick update: after a factory reset the phone still hangs randomly on 4G up data until toggled off.
Hopefully the last update. Switched sim cards and it seemed to solve the issue. Been running 4G data instead of WiFi for the past two days without hiccups. May have been an issue when switching the card from my 6P.
I had random glitches with the data too. I noticed it has pretty weak RF performance compared to Moto Z and S7 Edge on verizon. I haven't tested S8 yet (waiting for unlocked)
Phone tricked me. Issues persist after new sim card. Now comes the battle of refurbished phones.
FWIW, I can't see any difference in RF performance good or bad vs my old HTC One M8. In good spots, service is still good. And in bad spots, it's still bad.
Well, service is great when it works. I assumed it was network prioritization but it happens even on a New billing cycle.
I replaced the sim card, reset the phone, used safe mode, and just got all brand new G6 in the mail. Same issue and Verizon doesnt know why. At this point it has to be a network issue.
As an interesting side note, I used my 6P all day with no issues this past weekend

I've had a similar issue recently, a few times. Sometimes the phone will say no network connection in certain apps, other times it just does not work, LTE arrows blinking, but no data, apps do not respond. However, it would not work after toggling airplane mode, so I rebooted. Oddly, when this happened, my wife opened the same app on her G6, and it worked (we were not on wifi). Not sure if it's a network issue, or not. I'm gonna try a factory reset and see if that corrects this. I've had the device for 10 days, has happened 3 times.
I had a similar issue 2 days ago; no Verizon internet when trying to use my Chamberlain garage door opener app. I got it to work again when switching networks from Global to LTE/CDMA and back to Global. After that I rebooted the phone, got off wifi to make sure Verizon data works. Haven't had a problem since.
Another update but I'm sure no one cares any more. Used my 6P all last week with no issues. Back on my G6 today and data freezing throughout the day. Verizon doesn't believe me and no one knows what to do. I'm SOL and this G6 is to blame.
My girlfriend and I have both bought 2 brand g6s. Within 30days of owning, all of the issue that have been presented on here have happened and continue to happen even after joining a different verizon network plan. We have not figured out a fix and these are BRAND NEW. Not refurbished phones
