My phone has always randomly had a little glitch. For some reason, once every so often my 3G icon just disappears and stuff like my internet and market dont work. SMS still works fine though. Normally just a reboot fixes the problem but today I had to pull the battery. This happened even when I was fully stock but now I'm running DC 3.2.3 still with the stock kernal. Any similar experiences?
Running all-stock with no root. Happens to me also.
Full bars for signal (calls and texts) but the 3G icon stops transferring. I just put the DATA widget on my homescreen and toggle it. Not really a big deal...so far.
Same things happening to me it wont connect to 3g and freezes most of the time. Just started about 2 days ago

Anyone know anything about this problem? My phone now randomly restarts even when im not using it from trying to connect to 3g im guessing. Keyboard also stops working randomly

are you running a rom?
...If you are you should try flashing a stock rooted and see if the problem still exists. If it does you may want to try to unroot, go back to stock and update everything. Then you can narrow down if it is rom/software/hardware related
Yes i am running stock rom rooted. What do you mean by update everything?

I was also running stock rooted at first. Here is a weird update I just came across though. I've installed (and uninstalled) SwitchPro, which is basically a more customizable widget than the stock power control widget, 3 times now. And every time I add the actual widget to my home screen my 3G instantly disappears.....wtf? I uninstall it and reboot my phone and it's back to normal.
I'm gonna dig in to this a bit after I get back from the gym.

I just meant that if you unroot the phone, make sure your radio's are updated to stock, update your profile and prl, then you could determine if it is hardware related or maybe you just have a bad signal?

I think he means Device Self Service. Updating your PRL, Firmware and Profile.
I forgot to mention that when my 3G becomes "sketchy" this is the 1st thing I do. After that do a soft-reset and pull the battery out.
##RTN# - enter MSL - click menu, reset.
This is the only way I've found to fix this.
It wipes out ALL of your information so make sure you are backed up and synced. It is just like getting the phone new out of the box - it will auto-activate and you should be good to go.
If you don't have your MSL, call Sprint technical support and ask for it.
Thats pretty disapointing that that seems to be the only awnser. Will try when iget back from my vacation. The problem that makes me really mad is that it reboots randomly even when the screen is off in my pocket. Any backup app recomendations?

Running #7 and MMS does work for me
I can send and receive MMS just fine with nightly 6. Some people have reported turning off wifi will help.
I'm not having this problem, but I seem to have low call sound when I'm on the phone with someone. I have the volume all the way up, and it's pretty low. Not extremely low, but it seems a lot lower compared to stock ROM.
running #7 and no dice on MMS for me..with or without wifi
just tested mine too, nightly #5 - no luck sending mms.
no issues, on nightly #7 here. did a full wipe before installing #6, then installed #7 this AM
In the past when I had issues with nightlies and mms not working a wipe usually fixed it. Also using the newest radio wouldn't hurt.

What will help even better is flashing to the stock rooted Gingerbread that is on here. No silly bugs like CM7 is riddled with

Agreed. My only issues are the MMS, which is now fixed, and the Cell Standby attacking my battery like no other. Hopefully, that will be fixed soon. CM7 is fantastic and I am extremely pleased with it. The control it gives you over performance, display, input, ect. is phenomenal.

Does MMS send over wifi? I can only get mine to send without wifi
I've noticed low call volume... I had MIUI on a couple days ago and noticed a noticeable difference in call volume.

Are you using any data management apps like juice defender? I have seen the same issue on the Inc 1 where mobile data was disabled when on wifi and it wouldn't switch back to send mms.

I wiped my phone to the stock, rooted, and then flashed to the CM9 Alpha-6 build just recently and everything went smoothly. However, when the phone booted up, I can't get 3g data. I can call, send texts, use wifi and 4g but no 3g data. Its not even a loss of connection cause i have 5 bars in my room. There is just NO data being pulled and i checked all the settings to make sure its enabled. Any suggestions?

Yea, and wiping cache and such
Try redownloading on a computer, transfer to SD and reflash... never hurts to rule out the possibility of a bad download or flash before wasting a ton of time troubleshooting

Ive been having a similar problem with every aosp rom, which is why i never use them. But my problem is that 3g data would work at first then randomly would stop working until i go in and out of airplane mode. I rely too much on emails so i cant use them. I wish there was a fix though because i love the aosp roms

Have you tried the airplane mode toggle? it sounds like you are getting a LOS. Toggling into airplane mode I usually fixes it! If it happens again rinse, wash, repeat!

Random thought, what modem are you running? Tried FF11 or FF18?
Hey all, I was hoping someone else has had this issue and has fixed it. I'm running a stock unrooted phone and when I connect to wifi, it connects to the AP and obtains an IP, but I cannot go out to any website or use any app that needs a connection (facebook app, etc). Things I've done:
Restarted phone
Factory reset phone
rebooted router
Tried other roms
Sent to samsung (they did a SW update) x2
Forgot the network, then reconnected
This is getting extremely frustrating as it's been this way since I've had it, but it got worse with the ICS update. Anything that anyone has tried and actually worked? The funny thing is, when you reflash the phone or do a factory reset, it works for about an hour then stops. Thanks in advance!
Have you ever connected that phone to a different wifi?
I encountered an issue a few months back where something went wonky and i had to completely reset my router and set it back up. Have you tried that too?

Yes, I've tried different wifi AP's and none of them have worked, while others are on them including mine at home. I have not reset the router and reconfigured it because it's a cisco and as such is a pita. I have looked through my config and cannot find anything obvious. But still, others are able to connect just fine.
Same issue here. Never noticed it until recently. Reflashed LE1 and it worked for a couple of days. Going to flash the galaxy note modem tomorrow.

I know it's a shot in the dark, but some said it worked....
Try to disable the "UPnP" in your router.
Let us know....
premiatul: I can't find anything in my router for upnp. If anyone knows how to disable it in cisco ios 12.4(11)T1, I'll gladly try it.
Autx: please let me know how that goes and if it works. Thanks!

Is darkside wipe a temp or permanent fix, from what you've read?
Noone else has any info that may help? I would really like to get to the bottom of this. Devs: could this be a driver/kernel issue over a hw issue?

Honestly, whenever I'm running a TW based ROM I find that wifi takes awhile to connect. Any AOSP (CM/AOKP) for me is nearly instant.

I'm running a stock, unrooted device. It connects to the ap and gets an IP address just fine, but data doesn't go across the connection when I go to the internet.

Thanks for the heads up that the note radio didn't work. Also, the new official update didn't fix this issue either. Maybe I'll just have t-mo replace the device since it's not happening to everyone. Thanks all for your input!
Quick question.
Did you De-bloat your phone? Ie did you remove any apps from the system directory?

Not since the last time it returned from Samsung. And it's completely stock and unrooted right now.
I did a factory reset and the wifi came back steady for the past day I was slot more selective with my apps as I think this may have been the issue.

I'm glad this worked for you. I can't tell you how many factory resets I've done and it fails every time within a day. I bit the bullet and did a t-mo warranty exchange. Seeing as so few people actually have this problem, I'm chalking it up to my having bad luck and got a lemon. I hope the new one works fine.
I'd rather have a new one then the same one fixed lol

I have had my Galaxy Nexus for just over a year and have been running MMuzzy's version of Android 4.3 since July 30th. Just today, my phone stopped connecting to my home router, and I have literally tried everything to fix the Wi-Fi connection. First I did the simple stuff like restarting the phone and putting it into airplane mode. Then, I tried forgetting the network and re-entering the password, and wiped the cache and the delvik cache. Finally, I reverted back to Android 4.2.2 with a clean install, but I still don't have a working Wi-fi connection.
When I click on the profile, it barely flashes "connecting" and just reverts to "Saved, secured..." I know that this is not a router issue since my laptop, roommate's phones and laptops, and my girlfriend's phone all work fine.
Does anyone have any suggestions at all? I'm worried that my phone is done-zo.
Have you tried connecting to another wifi network with your phone? You could also try to create a wifi hotspot on another mobile device and connect to it. If both works then you know at least that your GNex' wifi hardware isn't broken.
Total shot in the dark, bur have you updated the ROM to a new version? Maybe the dev implemented a kernel or some change to the kernel that caused wifi problems for you.

Upon waking up, my phone once again reconnected to my Wi-Fi. Totally bizarre, but 4.3 has been a complete crap shoot so far. Thanks for the replies, much appreciated!
probably you only had to reboot your router..something was wrong assigning the ip address to your nexus
Or DHCP pool was full.. Meh. Boring thread.
