As soon as i go to place a call in xdandroid, the call is immediately cancelled! I am on a T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 running the 8/26 build with the sound fix. Anyone know a way to fix or remedy this besides resetting the phone into windows mobile then back to xdandroid??? Thx!

Nope, you are the only one. Just reset your device
so there is no fix correct?

No. The only fix is to reset the phone
I've had the same problems before. I did as above, just reset device. Usually put me back in bootloader screen and have to put it on PC to get it out. But I can deal with it

Same I have this problem too, Hopefully the developers come up with a fix for this.
I am also having this issue, sometimes putting the phone into flight mode and then taking it back out works, but usually I have to reset the phone... it only happens maybe once a day or every cpl days so its livable for now
I have to add to the fact that I get this same exact issue but noticed that emergency calls will always work and not hang up... I can't call voicemail but I can call 911

Hrm... Like the phone is in emergency-only mode... Odd. I've never experienced this issue.
yup, that's exactly what it looks like. I'm thinking that if I maybe put it in airplane mode and then back on it may start working... I haven't had the issue in a while since I make all my calls using WM but I'll report if it fixes the issue in my end..
So I've had this issue for a long time now where my 3g radio will reset randomly (i think). What happens is that i lose 3g and the icon will disappear from the top bar. The phone makes a small sound (sounds like when you first power up the phone and it connects to the cell tower / 3g). Then about one second later it makes the same noise and then 3g turns back on. It takes it a few seconds to regain signal and then its usually fine. I know its the 3g because the problem stop when data is turned off, and also when wifi is on.
I've tried reflashing roms, reflashing my modem via odin, and even a factory reset. I can't seem to get this issue to go away. The only thing i can think of how i may have caused this issue was when upgrading to EC05 i forgot to include the pit file one time when flashing the modem with odin.
Any input or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I'm still learning when it comes to android so if I haven't tried it yet its because I either don't know about it or don't know how.

Its been happening to my phone for easily over a month now. And a friend of mine also has an epic that runs the exact same rom. Its also very annoying when playing music and videos cause it cuts out the sound to play the tone when it losses/gains 3g.

Does your friend's epic with the same ROM also.do this?
Do you BONSAI?
Actually I used to use bonsai. This problem started when I upgraded to i want to say 3.0. When the problem first started it also had a terrible battery glitch (when i restarted the phone i lost 50% battery. but a restore fixed this but left the 3g problem). I upgraded to 4.0 and the problem still hadn't been fixed. So thinking maybe it had something to do with the rom, I switched to Syndicate Rom Frozen and thats what I'm using now. My friend still has a DK28 Bonsai on his phone because I'd rather not somehow give him this annoying issue. But as of now his phone does not have this issue, so think it has to be my phone and not sprint.
Could flashing the modem .tar in odin without selecting the .pit file do this? I feel like it might have changed something it shouldn't. From what i recall it completed successfully without the .pit.
Edit: also thanks a lot for your help so far kenny
Very happy i got a quick response and that my thread wasnt just ignored.
Have you ever Odin'd back to stock DI18? Do that and let it update OTA to EC05 and see if that fixes it. Then flash your ROM and see if your issue returns.
Do you BONSAI?
When I switched from Bonsai to SRF I odin'd back to DI18/stock and it still didnt fix the issue. However I didn't let it update OTA and just odin'd from DI18 to EC05 then installed SRF. When i get the time to do all that ill give it a try doing the OTA and get back to you.

If you got the same issue with stock DI18 then you may have a flaky 3G radio in that phone. When you OTA maybe you should let Sprint look at it. You may get a new phone.
Hi,
Does anyone have this problem on their phone? Every now and then, when I am doing a data related function, data hangs as though it is not connected even though I am in a perfect 4g coverage area and the 4g sysmbol is still on. I know its hanging because the arrow to the right of the 4g symbol stays lit green. It either starts working 5 minutes later on its own or I turn wifi on and off. I have the newest sim card installed.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
probably a software related issue
the only time i experience that is when i lose connectivity with the network, as in the signal bars or 3G/4G arrows are all greyed
Yea dude i noticed even tho i have wifi set to never it always shuts off or i should say loses connection i hate it because i have to pull down status bar hit it off then on wifi is definitely effed on stock too. Anyone else experiencing this? I know its a problem cuz my g2x i could leave it alobe for an hour in hibernate come back and wifi still good to go anyone have any ideas? Or is it a s2 problem witg wifi cutting off. Like i said the icon will still be there but i wont have connection and 50% of the time i have wifi icon and 4g
Same issue here, in two different phones I've had. Not sure what the issue is. In fact, opening this page, my data was hanging for a minute, irony.

for this issue you can configure how WiFi behaves, but the settings are only accessible via spareparts or custom ROMs
I set my wifi to never sleep while on charger

But this happens to me when my wifi is off. Only on the cellar data connection.
I had this issue after giving juice defender superuser permissions. It seemed that it would not turn data back on when I had the screen on. I'm not sure if this applies to you, but I no longer gave juice defender su and everything was fine. a lot of those functions in that app do not seem to play nicely with this phone yet anyway.

+1 to everything already mentioned.
I was in Vegas this weekend and had HORRIBLY slow/no data at all. Like has been mentioned, the green arrow with just stay lit. thought i was the rom, i nandroided back to stock, same issue. Hope this is fixed soon it is hella annoying.
This fixed it for me
I have had this same issue for a while, here's how to fix it. Go to Titanium backup, I found out that there're two versions of "My account" on the list, so I frozed the old one, then go to task manager "kill all", the 4G icon will disappear. Open up "My account" again, the 4G reappears but as soon as I close the app, the 4G icon would disappear.
Hope it helps someone
I too have similar problems where my data hangs or doesnt want to connect. Then a few minutes later, it will decide to start working. This happens even in full signal regions. Stock rom and/or BeastMod rom...
Not sure why it happens :S
For those having problems and have tmobile my account on phone freeze it or uninstall it i guarantee it fixes your data problems trust me. I to had problems just like you guys and i was told to uninstall my account i was like what? What the hell is that going to do but believe me when i say it worked! I actually unfroze it to see if the problem would come back (4g and wifi on at same time) or cutting out. And it did. So i refroze my account and bam 4g disapeared while wifi on. This has fixed all my wifi and data problem phone works flawless now! Basically i think t-mobile trying to snoop with our data. Scumbags
This is happening to me. The phone is driving me mad. It happens constantly. The "up arrow" in the 4g icon will light up, and all data will freeze. I stare at loading screens all day long. It freezes anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Then it will fix itself, then it will happen again within 2-5 minutes. I'm furious with this phone.
Wifi works great. It's not dependent on my location, it happens no matter where I am. Doesn't matter what I do, nothing prevents it from happening. Of course, the Airplane mode toggle or resetting APNs and all that will do the trick to fix it temporarily, but it will only happen again 5 minutes later.
I'm on stock, unrooted. I am ready to throw this phone at the wall. Has anybody else managed to actually fix it or get a response from Samsung/T-Mobile?
I should have read this thread before buying this phone. This is so annoying. I tried to put the phone in flight mode. It fixed for a min and back to problem.
I'm having the same problem. I didn't have this problem until I updated to 2.3.6. Anyone else still on an earlier version?

Same things been happening to me lately, its awfully annoying. Makes me want to throw my phone across the room sometimes.
Hey guys... as it says in the title, I am having issues with my G-nex randomly losing connection/signal but then coming back again. From what I have read, this is a common problem... anyone have any tips? Also wanting to know if I flash a custom ROM if that would possibly fix the problem. Thanks!
Not necessarily the ROM, but the radios. Try that.
There are a few 4.0.4 ROMs for the LTE GNex out now you could try as well if you want to go the ROM route.
Is this happening to you? (See attachment)
If so.. I've been trying multiple radios and multiple roms all day without any progress, this still happens. Would love it if someone has a solution to this... I'd have having to send in my phone again.
The signal issues seem to stop when the phone is awake though... :/ But I'm missing a lot of phone calls since my phone is "off" when people try to call me.

yeah, that's exactly what's happening... it does seem to happen more when the phone is off, but I think it still happens when it is on. it is so weird! I went into the verizon store, one of the reps said that he had just been having this issue today and that he put it into airplane mode and back off again and it seemed to fix the problem... I did it, and it seems to have helped, but that was only about 20 min ago lol. see if it helps you!

Hmm.. interesting. The problem here is that this started on March 24th... :/ But, still trying Airplane mode, even though I'm not optimistic..
I emailed my provider, asking them for info, but a friend of mine has been working beside me for the past few days, on the same network with the same phone, without problem. So I guess it's time to bring it in..
Thanks for the info! I may try to put the latest rom/radio on it and see if that helps... if not i'll un-root it and send it in I guess.
I'm having a similar issue with my GSM model, It started when my phone was updated to 4.0.4. Phone signal suddenly drops and comes back again in less than 10 seconds. Sometimes it happens with 1 minute intervals between signal losses, sometimes 5 or 20 minutes, it's very random. After noticing the issue thanks to "Light Flow" that blinks the notification light in white when there is a signal loss, I installed this app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartandroidapps.missedcall&hl=en) to track it properly. The results are very frightening, I'm about to do a full wipe in hopes that the issue will be gone :|
ps: like you guys, I did notice that it's very most likelly to happen while the screen is off. Actually, it has never happened while the screen was on.
Same here, post 4.0.4 update on my GSM GNex.
Found this explanation....
I know I had a problem with WIFI dropping every few minutes and disconnecting/reconnecting all the time. Causing streaming issues, internet issues and freeze issues if on lockscreen. Well, I have fixed this for myself and wanted to share.
To insure this doesn't happen, just follow these steps:
1. Dial *#0011#
2. Hit the left menu softkey to bring up the menu, and select 'Wifi'
3. Turn OFF the 'Wifi Power Saving'
4. Exit, and Reboot.
Ever since then, I haven't had issues. I am on AT&T GS3. If you are having this issue, please report back here with your model and if this fix worked.
Just trying to help. Good day all!
I'm not entirely certain this was happening, but had noticed some oddities. Not as bad as your experience, however.
But I did make the change to see how it would affect battery life. I am on the Sprint network.

I don't have issues at home but I do with the WiFi at work so I'll try it tomorrow and let you know how it works out. It disconnects and reconnects every 5 seconds and I'm not exaggerating either.
I think the WAP may be a little wonky but my HTC Desire HD had no problem with it.
Mine turned back on after reboot as well.

I am working through logcats as well. I reverted the setting to mimic the problem, and I am going to look at logcats.
If I can see what is exactly triggering it, I will make a flashable fix.
In the meantime, I have another S3 here that I have the power save off on and I still haven't seen a drop yet. So preliminary, I think this is a temporary fix until I can find out root problem.
Hope you find a fix

I have a similar problem. Mine doesn't disconnect per-se, however I did notice while browsing through Flipboard that I wasn't getting any signal sometimes when trying to access a page with a lot of content. Page loading came to a stop. Backed out several times and retried until I finally gave up. This was on my home wifi. I'll try your work-around for a few days. T-Mobile version.
EDIT: This may be just a FlipBoard quirk.
I will try this when I get home. I have a problem on my Sprint SGS3 where it stays connected to wifi but the internet won't actually work (can't browse internet, use play store or youtube, etc). Wifi never sleeps, it's always on. It never disconnects from the network, it just stops receiving and sending data. So we'll see if this does anything for it.
you guys dont have an issue where the display doesnt timeout after turning off the power save?
display won't time out from turning off the wifi power save. Totally unrelated. I am trying to mimic the problem right now.
If anyone is having the issues of the reconnnecting every few seconds and can logcat it for me, PM me please. I can't seem to mimic the problem since the fix.

Turning off power save does indeed fix the WiFi issue at work. As posted before, restarting the phone turns power save back on and the problem is back.

PM sent.
Going through multiple logcats now.
I am seeing even with power saving on though, the problem is still there. It is still disconnecting from WIFI and going back to the data network.
I am sifting through ALOT of code, as some of these log cats are extremely long.
Give me til tonight and I should have a reason at least to why it's doing it by comparing on vs off on powersave.
I have a request, anyone WITHOUT this issue, can you send me a logcat with your WIFI turned on?

Thanks for this. I was about to return the phone because I kept losing ability to connect to any WAPs after sleep mode kicked in. Mine is a Verizon S3.
I've seen this as well. Almost always after deep sleep. Most of the time I have to cycle Wifi to get it connected again every so once in awhile it will connect again on its own. Regardless of the settings that I put in "advanced" under wifi it will do this. Even if I have it set to keep alive never, always or plugged in it doesn't matter.
I still need a logcat from someone NOT having these issues.
Right now from looking through over 10 logcats, I am seeing that it's usually happening on routers that are encrypted with WEP and WPA, unfortunately the 2 most popular forms of wireless security.
That being said, users that are on 'open' networks do not seem to be losing access.
2 things.
1. Can someone PM me a logcat of them successfully connecting to wifi and NOT having drops. I don't care how long the logcat is.
2. When you post about your problems, please tell me what carrier and what type of encryption is being used on the router (if any)
I have been comparing and in each instance, WIFI is going into sleep, turning on data, and then having a problem turning back on.
I think it's an attempt to save power, but only it is not because switching from WIFI to data back to WIFI so much is a real drainer.
Still working on maybe disabling the power save by using a init.d script, to prevent power save mode from coming back on when rebooted, because I know alot of users are saying after disabling it, it is just reapplying on reboot.
BACK TO LOGCATS FOR ME. :/
