Since a week I experienced some issues with my Galaxy Nexus. If I try to make a phone call, halfway the connection stops and it says my phone is in airplane mode, but is isn't. I tried the Milestone 3 ROM and now I use the AOSP Rom, I had it with both ROM's. I don't know if more people are experiencing the same problem?
Please let me know!

Did you try changing baseband or radio? Never had this issue before or heard of it but changing radio or baseband might sort it out. Good luck, that would drive me insane!!!

Yes, it really drives me insane!! I tried different radio, but no change whatsoever.
I'll try the stock rom, maybe it's an hardware issue.
Thanks for your reply.
Might help to group this issue to the many others in this sub forum.
Gsm or Lte model?

GSM model!
I read updating the bootloader has fixed radio stability issues. I did it myself this morning. I would be sitting here and all of a sudden realize I don't have a signal and would have to reboot.

***EDIT*** I believe that I have found the solution to this issue (at least for me) by flashing the FuGuMod Kernel as advised to do by 2 users (jetrii and slyydrr) who advised me of this in the following thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487056 on pages 7 and 8 respectively.
This fix may NOT work for you but I can say that it has worked for me. Please see post #33 (and onward) in this thread.
I have painstakingly been trying to find a solution to this issue and it SEEMS as if I have FINALLY found one so if I have helped you in any way then I ask that you please press the "Thanks" button and please visit the thread above and say thanks to jetrii and slyydrr as well. I also recommend that if this works for you that you go to the FuGuMod thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1438417 and pay tribute to nikademus for his kernel!!! I know I sure have... Also... Make SURE that you flash the correct kernel version for your ROM ie: 4.0.3 ROM = 4.0.3 Kernel, etc...
Thanks...
Hi everyone,
I have decided to start a fresh thread here as I have seen (and replied to) many threads regarding people with the GSM version of the GNEX (like I have) that are suffering from random signal loss of both data and GSM services for apparently NO REASON.
If you are also experiencing these issues I ask that you please post them here so that they are easy to follow and I also ask for anyone with ANY answsers to please post them here as well. Also... Please post what firmware you are running and any steps you have tried to fix this issue be them a failure or a success. I have done the following...
I am currently on the FoxHound v1.0 AOSP 4.0.3 firmware and experience these random signal drops. I have flashed NUMEROUS radios / modems to try and fix this with no success. I had been told by someone that the issue MAY be a BUG in the 4.0.3 AOSP ROMS but I have a hard time believing this as some people do NOT experience these same issues while on 4.0.3 ROMS.
What did work was to flash to the Android Revolution 4.0.2 ROM and on this I do NOT experience these random drops which COULD mean that the problem DOES lie in the AOSP builds of 4.0.3 but again... I have a difficult time believing this but it could be true. Also... Stock firmware (4.0.1) for me here in Canada does not experience these random signal losses either.
This is very annoying as I want to run the 4.0.3 custom ROMS for their customization capabilities, etc but I cannot keep my device in a USABLE state when on 4.0.3 so I have to go back to my trusty SGSII.
Again, please post here to voice your concerns and opinions on this and perhaps SOMEONE will be able to find us a solution.
Thanks,
are you using your carrier supplied radio?

Yup. Im on UGKL1 which is the radio that shipped on my device. I have also tried other radios (XXKL1, UGKK7, XXKG6, etc) as I mentioned as well and I still experience the same issue and others have mentioned the same things as well with no successes.
There was this one time that I had lost signal randomly (while on stock unmodified out of the box ICS) but I was able to get it back with a factory reset. After that it never happened to me again.

Thanks for the comment. May I ask what Radio your device has on it? Are you running any sort of custom ROM now? If so, what are you running?
Right now the radio is KK6 (im on stock yakju 4.0.2 now) but at the time it was what came with the phone (shipped from Rogers)

Hmmmm... Interesting... You got an OTA update to 4.0.2? I have seen other posts that people here in Canada are complaining that they have not received ANY OTA updates at all... When did you get this?
Since I have been on a custom ROM I have not seen this update obviously...
I'm on GSM with Rogers as well. I haven't noticed any significant signal drops with the exception of my basement (no cell phones get signal there - its a fortress lol). I am on 4.0.3 as well. I have read that the 4.0.4 has improved radio... so it may be worth looking into. I saw a WIP 4.0.4 GSM Rom here.
I've been experiencing this as well. I'll have a great signal, then suddenly it totally disappears, and after a few seconds the signal comes back. It's even happened during voice calls as well. I experienced this on the stock device (4.0.1). I'm now using the GummyNex rom on 4.0.3 (w/ a stock radio), and I'm still experiencing these random signal loses. (T-mobile USA in NYC, btw).
It's not a constant problem, but it happens a few times a day. enough to be an mild annoyance.

Hmmmmm... I ONLY seem to get these signal drops on 4.0.3... Weird... You have a GSM device right? Not CDMA - LTE?
I found something new to try when I get home but if anyone may want to try it now and post your results it would be very helpful and appreciated.
This is a radio from the Japanese variant of the GNEX and most people who have tried it have had good success with it... See the link below...

I THINK I am experiencing this. My phone keeps going from H+ to 3G non stop at the top. How can you tell if your signal is being dropped? (sorry new to this) I've seen posts with a network screen? showing connection but I can't seem to find this.
Haven't had any issues as far as that. There were times when I was using the browser and it said network error but everything still worked.

You will notice because the signal bars icon will go "completely blank" and for example... If you are on your lockscreen and you can see the name of your provider...It will disappear completely for a couple of seconds and then come back...
No I guess I am not experiencing this. I'm not exactly sure what the difference between H+ and 3G is but my phone seems to stay in 3G until it transfers data, when its transferring data, it goes into H+, then back into 3G. Maybe this is normal. I was just curious because I did flash Yakju and the radios when i bought it.

Well, when I first flashed 4.0.1 yakju I got notifications of being able to upgrade it OTA. However, at the time I must of messed something up when I flashed it because the updates werent successful when I went to update it. So I got fed up with it and I flashed 4.0.2 manually via fastboot.

So I flashed this radio and I get SOMEWHAT better stability but it only accesses the EDGE network and NO 3G/H... Guess this is a no go too...
HD Rom, Latest build.
Radio - XXKK6
Had the stock radio with the HD Rom, and thought that my random lost connections on market were due to my not flashing the recommended radio. Flashed the recommended radio (current), and still experienced them. Signal is better, and oddly enough voice doesn't get lost. Phone doesn't show that there is no signal, in fact it is at 3 bars on H.
Edit: I use a regional carrier, that doesn't list APN settings. By leaving APN type blank, I seemed to have solved the problem. Also dramatically increased the signal strength (Using Network Signal app).

What is the name of this network signal app? Developers name and what does it do exactly?
Ok, this is driving me nuts. Maybe someone has some additional ideas on what I could try out.
First of all, I am on Verizon in the SE Michigan area. At work I hover around 2-3bars 4G/full bars 3G. The same thing at my home. I am rooted and w/ 4.0.4.
I have tried the 4.0.4 radios, the hybrid 2 and hybrid 3 radios. For all of them I get similar behavior.
I would say almost half of the time when I request data (try to open a website, etc...) or if I try to place a call I get a total connection drop even though a stable connection (either 3g or 4g) is indicated. Call won't complete and/or data won't work - no bars and a little gray x. This is when I have a completely fine connection, it just seems to crap out when I request either data or a call. After about 30 seconds or so the connections automatically resets itself and it appears to be fine. Occasionally i need to restart my phone.
I've been getting this with 4.0.3 non rooted and 4.0.4 rooted with all the above radios. it's a massive pain in the ass. I had no such issues with my DInc and my gf has no such issues with her Razr.
Any ideas?
I would say you have bad signal, despite what your signal bars may show. No amount of data drops will stop a call from being completed unless it is a complete loss of signal.
The other possibility is something is causing the ril to crash. However without you supplying a logcat, there is no way to be sure.
So, do you think this may be a hardware problem? I am getting "no connection" when I try to make calls in areas where no one else appears to be having issues. Do I need to throw my phone against a wall and use my insurance for a new one?
Ok, ill run logcat and post when it happens again.
Sorry for borrowing your thread, but I also seem to face signal drops and don't know if it's because of carrier breakdowns or something else. I have the XXLA2 radio and run the latest AOKP.
My logcat is attached, if anyone wants to help me.

I haven't tried 4.0.2. I could try that, but i'm confident it will happen with those as well. The symptoms described in that report mirror exactly what happens with mine.
I did three speedtests with my phone, on the third one I lost data and voice. Tried to make a call and got a "Mobile network not available". Almost like something is completely crashing voice/data.

A closer inspection has led me to believe that I do not have this error on the ROM I use, so I'm sorry for possibly wasting your time.
Thanks for the RIL crash suggestion adrynalyne, I requested a replacement phone as it appears that is the only fix.
Ok so in the past hour I've noticed that my phone has disconnected from my wifi a few times. It does connect straight away however when I try to load a page it won't load and I have to wait a little while longer until it works again.
Has anyone else had wifi issues with this device?
Any body have any wifi issues at all?
Yeah I'm having the same issue with my home's wifi.
Doesn't seem to occure at work though(or maybe I haven't noticed it since I do work there).

I'll probably try flashing the latest fw at some point - which I think doesn't void your warranty.

I've got a new router coming from Sky. (Sky Hub.) I'll see how that acts before I flash my phone.

Can anyone explain how to get the MH5 Firmware and what steps need to be taken to flash it?
Yes I am too. I made another thread asking if people knew if the 9190, 9192 and 9195 have different wifi antennas. I am really bummed out over this.
Can you describe the wifi issue you have? What FM are you running?
No Wifi issues here.
So I did have issues, but that was the fail of Xposed-Framework, without that framework, there is no problem.
As a matter of fact you are able to stop the Wifi Power Safe Mode und the Service Mod (*#0011#) ... That stops a lot of Issues

I have the same problem, every now and then it will stop having service and the only way to get it back is by rebooting, sometimes it works at first sometimes it needs a couple of reboots.
Any hint with this would be great

same problem and i'm having invalid imei
im having almost identical problems... like a month or 2 ago i reflashed to the new 4.3 slim rom. I have been fighting this thing every since. Ive tried so many different radios but yet i still have this issue, sometimes i can go days without problems but now it seems to loose data even sooner. ONLY way i get data (4G) back is if i reboot. Ive tried disabling then re-enabling data, same for airplane mode, nothing works. I think part of the problem is this damn rom.... i used to be on black bean 8 and for the mobile networks it had an option for "CDMA/LTE". This rom must be a ported rom cause the only selection for mobile networks that work is "CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA". I am on Sprint CDMA and LTE. i dont understand why this was done like this. I Would like to go back to blackbean 8 but i had problems with it and i like some of the settings for this rom better. Anybody have any ideas? Ive tried ALL the radios, none seem to be stable.
oh and i would post in there for the rom's forum but seeing as i havent posted enough here im not able to ask questions about it or anything :-/

I'm using the latest Zui 2.5.104 ST since last two months, everything is stock and I haven't faced any random reboot issue. May be issue was there with first/earlier version, but no issue with the latest update. VoLTE also works perfectly and never drops (Just that "HD" sign grts vanished sometimes, but VoLTE still works). You can go ahead and buy this phone. Btw, issues like random reboots, heating can be due to individual usage, so make sure you don't overheat the phone, or use bad apps.

No such issue after update
To be on the safe side just factory reset the phone few times after update....it helps to get rid of such issues.
On 2.5.104 ST, every time I unlocked my phone, screen flickered and all radios disconnected. Sometimes it would immediately freeze, go to black screen, then LED lit up, requiring me to hold power button down to reboot the phone. Sometimes this happened, but not immediately. Sometimes radios would recover and phone would continue to function. Sometimes cellular radios recovered, but wifi did not, and even toggling airplane mode didn't fix it so I had to reboot. Nougat was quite a mess on my phone and that's even after factory reset many times. Several on zukfans.eu site had similar issues.
I don't think it was a hardware issue, because downgrade to 2.0.133 ST (Marshmallow) works perfectly.
