Dropping data connection All the Time. - Desire General

I have Orange UK branded desire with a generic rom flashed to it. I keep loosing data connection and I have to restart to it back.
went to the carphone warehouse (trying to avoid orange because of the generic ROM) and the Guy said he changed the network settings and that might help, but it didn't.
anyone else having this or know a solution?

Desire will show upload arrow but nothing downloading ?

Hi all,
Since today my desire will show the uploading arrow flashing as if it is using data but the download one never shows any activity and no apps or internet pages will load. The app market says it cannot connect as if the mobile internet was turned off. My WiFi works fine but my mob data does not. Any ideas what the problem may be?

i had this problem with a de branded (with froyo 2.2 .ruu download) orange handset could not get it to work spent 2 hrs talking to orange about the problem no reason given or found, if i did reset then go into recovery console but do nothing for a while then battery pull it would come back for an undefined period of time phone ended up in a bowl of water orange care are replacing it
Thanks for the advice mate but I don't have the luxury of a replacement handset as I bought the phone off the net and stuck my own sim in it. Mine is a de branded Vodafone running 2.2 froyo Rom. Any other ideas that might help me cure this problem?

Quick update: the data seems to work ok on a g signal and the download problems seem to be just with the h signal downloads

Are you certain that it isn't a network problem?

This is what it is sounding like to me.
Phone, Vodafone and have them check their side? (Also, how old is your sim card?)
My sim card is about a year old now. Do you think I should be checking it out and possibly getting a new one?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I seriously doubt your SIM card is to blame if it was working ok previously.
One thought that does occur to me is are you regularly using MMS? If so, do you have a separate APN for MMS set up?
I'm just wondering if perhaps your phone is trying to send an MMS and continually failing.

Dave
i didn't mean put it in water i just said that's what happened to mine so i couldn't get it sorted and looked like it would have been sent back

help mobile internet has stopped working.

hi, my mobile internet stopped working a few days ago, it wasnt after an update or anything, the only thing i can think of is i enabled installing to sd card and put it back to normal.
my phone was and is unrooted desire stock latest firmware. im on O2 postpay.
ive attempted to fix it by checking all the apn settings, restarting my phone, turning my phone off for ten minutes, factory reset, but still it seems i have no internet even with the right settings..
i turn wifi off, mobile internet is switched on, i do not get any mobile internet icon up top, and of course nothing.
any help would be much appreciated. thanks in advance.

I have faced similar issue as you describe here. I had internet until I installed an application on my HTC Desire (Froyo 2.2). It was some application which would let me access my HTC files through a web interface from my LAN PC. After I uninstalled the app I did not have access to the internet though it was connecting to WiFi.
Issue was solved when I did a factory reset of the phone, I lost all my apps and contacts, but after this internet was working again on my phone. Now I'm thinking that I better had to check what was the VPN parameters set as I believe that program could set some values there without reverting back after uninstalling it.
Hope this helps.
hi thanks for the reply but as i said, i have done a factory reset and its still not working..
Im on O2 uk and my data stopped working today, my apn name had the word void at the end???? i reset to defaults and its been ok since.
i guess O2 had some problems
Mine never said void but ive reset it to default many times, no change

For those who give a toss.... i put someone elses sim in my phone and mobile internet worked, my sim in the other phone didnt, i have a feeling it is my simcard so ima change it, if u dnt hear from me then all went well. Peace out.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
did u try to clean your sim?
I dont know how to, i did blow on it and rub it a bit.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Just a though
Do you have any VPN declared in the settings?
(Settings/Wireless & networks/VPN Settings)
No.
But its sorted now. I got the new sim but it didnt work so i went back and they said when they switched the sim they accidentally removed the free internet bolt on.
I think they may have bullshitted me somewhere but it works now anyway.

[Q] 3G Not Working Correctly

Hey there! I've recently started having problems using 3G on my DHD.
I'm running Android Revolution HD 5.2.3, but the issues started occuring many versions before this, I just haven't had a chance to sit down and look into the problem.
When I connect to 3G, the icon appears in the notification bar but I simply seem to have no connectivity at all. Occasionally the icon will change to a H. If I try to browse a webpage, the up arrow on the icon will light up and the down arrow will occasionally flicker, but nothing happens. Can't browse webpages or use any apps that require a connection.
Sometimes it will randomly start working again for 15mins or so and then drop out again. 90% of the time, turning airplane mode on and then off again will fix the problem for 15mins also before it drops out.
Does anybody have any idea what problem I may be having? I'm with Vodafone Australia.
Update: At the suggestion of another XDA member, I tried flashing another radio and I'm still having the same issue, so I assume it is not related to the radio.
Bonus Question: When I can get access to 3G, since upgrading to ARHD 5.2.3, the google homepage no longer detects that I'm on a mobile device and does't take me to the mobile version. How can I fix this?
Please do check your 3G mobile data APN configuration. Make sure the 3G APN matched with your current carrier 3G configuration (search google for your Vodafone APN setting). The letter H indicates HSDPA connection (or 3.5G, maybe).
In browser setting, check your user agent setting, set it to Android/mobile. If not, clear cache and data of Browser program in Manage Application Setting.

Fixed the browser, thanks!
However, I have set up my APN correctly (as far as I am aware) and am still having the issue. Could re-flashing my radio help?

You have a fine, working mobile data, so you shouldn't have to push radio,RIL or flash kernel though. My best suggestion was the APN thing mentioned earlier. Or its network carrier related maybe? Try to consult your carrier customer service.

I consulted customer service and they are uncertain of any problems and simply told me that their service is 'not guaranteed to be perfect'.
However, a friend who lives in my area on the same carrier with the exact same phone is having no problems at all with connectivity, so I'm certain it's related to my phone alone.

Wow, that is not a nice thing to say to a customer. Have you tried to revert to stock rom with stock kernel and vodafone radio?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
I haven't tried that as I couldn't find the stock vodafone AUS RUU (I think that's what I need anyway...)
But I've had a custom rom and custom radio since the day I got my phone and up until two months ago or so my internet has been incredibly fast and not dropped out once, so I'm doubting it's ROM/Radio related... Starting to worry that it could be hardware.

I'm afraid so too. That's the worst case scenario. Still, you should consult someone who's expert in this matter personally. Not the repair shop (that would be last resort).

MY t-mobile atrix is just fine on cm7.
What rom are you using?
have you changed baseband?
do you have data roming active?
I had problems with T-Mobile for a few days between Xmas and New Year. I could only connect via T-Mobile/Orange and this ment no data connection.
Luckily I was at home over the holidays and so had WiFi.
Back to the normal T-Mobile service with data connections now though.
Maybe they just had network outages
Hi macboy there is a post on the tmobile forums that suggests social notifications are suppressed on pay as you go. But that wouldn't include email. There seem to be some defy that networking suddenly fails, cured by a reboot. Check your sim is N3 type, visit local store. If it is then send it back.

Your default baseband is 0.59
02 but you will get full service with 3.4.11 or if you have the option 3.4.179
Easiest way to check sim is n type is to pop into s store

suddenly no signal

Hi all,
A few days ago a friend of mine found a Wildfire S with an already stopped sim.
He then put in his sim and it was working perfectly, all connections available.
Suddenly after about 5 days of usage, it lost signal to the network provider but wifi and bluetooth still work.
Any help pls?

Has your friend tried doing a factory data reset?
Phone has probably been reported lost or stolen and normally the network that the phone was reported to would block it straight away, then they send the blocked imei number to the rest of the networks in that region and eventually it will be totally blocked on all networks.
At least in the uk its what would happen and it could work for a week or two until the networks update their database and add the imei.
This sounds like your issue, but I could be wrong.
