My 3g radio signal periodically (I'd guess every 15-20 min, but it may not be a regular interval) drops off to 1x, and then refreshes back to full strength. I'm not moving, and the signal is fine before and after the refresh. It's annoying mostly because I sometimes play Order & Chaos (badass game, btw) and play it over 3g, so when the signal disrupts, the game disconnects me. The 1x signal remains, though, so it's not a problem for calls dropping or anything. Anyone experience this issue? Anyone know of a fix??
thats just sprints awesome data connection.

So, I keep my wifi on mostly at all times. But I've found that when I leave my home, and get outside my wifi range, instead of naturally switching back to 3G (I usually have 4G disabled for battery purposes, unless I need speed), my 3G and bars icon will be all greyed out, and I will have no incoming data. I otherwise have a great signal here in Boston. Sometimes it will eventually start working, but other times I will need to reboot in order to have a working data connection.
Is this an issue anyone else has? It seems the transition from wifi to mobile data is glitchy?
I'm Having a problem with my signal strength every where I go and WIFI as well. signal only peaks when I'm near towers and starts dropping as I get further away and I can't maintain data connection for nothing in the world.WIFI I run WIFI at home because im always on my phone. The moment I leave my house and come back it doesn't pick up the signal anymore I have to reset my phone so it can work. Is anybody having these problems and what is it caused by. Thanks in advance.
For me, a similar problem
Setting the network mode to auto or just wdcma makes the phone unusable.
Although the extent of the phone grabs. Nay, sometimes even 5 bars but the state does not tra large than 5 (sometimes 10) minutes and reach lost. Often with good coverage, I can not make calls and the internet does not work. Redials the phone ends in the subscriber information out of reach (the phone shows that he has range)
Switching the phone on GSM ONLY mode causes that everything starts to work as it should (only the net so slow)
The problem started a week ago
The problem occurs in various parts of the city, regardless of whether I use the transmitter Play network or roaming.
Factory reset did not help. I suspect the SIM card but the more I'm bending your point defect (eg antenna) since the last few months everything worked
EDIT:
1h watched by telephone yesterday, and what I noticed.
The problem is when a weak signal mode UMTS.
The signal strength of -90,-95dBm causes the phone to have problems. If the signal is below-100dBm the phone is able to maintain a dial-up connection to the Internet are no longer problems. Often there are also decreases above 100dBm signal which usually end up losing the connection of both GSM as well as internet and phone needs a few dozen seconds to reconnect.
If you set the mode to GSM only signal strength is-55dBm and the problems do not occur.

it's your network providers problem not our's. you can obviously not get 3G all around your city
So I live in NYC, and often go underground because of subway or go into buildings with thick walls and no reception, and lose 4G/LTE signal on the phone/building.
When i am out in the open again, the phone will reconnect and shows full bar with 4G/LTE, i can make normal calls/text, however, there is 0 internet data connection.... and takes like 15-20minutes for the phone itself to be able to use data again. this can be fixed with turning on airplane mode for like 3 seconds, and then disable it, but since this happens so often because where I live, this is driving me crazy. Does anybody know what kind of problem this is??
I've searched the forum, and heard that is caused by "ISIS" Sim card from Tmo? any help is appreciated.
sorry for the bump/necro... i am still having the problem :< anybody know this issue?
I work in a building that has really bad connection to the data network. Whenever I unlock my phone, it always show full white bars but no indication of H or LTE, which means I am not getting data. It takes awhile before the phone then connects to the network again, albeit very slow.
Is my phone disconnecting from the data network when it is idle? When connection is weak? Is it trying to conserve battery from always trying to communicate with a weak signal? Anyway I can disable this delay to reconnect since I can still receive data but just slow?
i have a problem when my phone switches from wifi i will have bars but it will show a small x in the bars and i have to go into airplane mode for a few seconds then turn airplane mode off to get data working again... really annoying.
not sure if related, but the radio seems a bit wonky
