A few weeks ago I started to have this problem; i'm ussually connected to the HDSPA network, but the phone turns data off all the time and the only way to get the signal back is rebooting (even turning on and off plane mode doesn't solve it). Calls work perfectly.
I'm on stock 4.0.4, no modified kernels or roms. My carrier is Simyo, Spain.

No, I'm from Spain, my carrier is called Simyo, but it uses the Orange network.

That´s not my problem; the phone functions work great all the time, but data connection goes off. It happened when I was on 4.0.2 and now on 4.0.4 the issue is still there.
I too am having this same issue with a GSM Galaxy Nexus on stock yakju 4.0.4, but I'm in Canada on the Bell network, and did change the radio to the one they install on their phones.
I've been having this same problem just in the last day or two, ever since I enabled NFC. 4.04, stock kernel, calls go through as normal but no network data. When I disable NFC, everything is back to normal. Anyone else notice conflict with NFC enabled?

I believe this is with the 4.0.4 IMM76D build, it's fixed on 4.0.4 IMM76I.
Again, what the OP has reported, and I am experiencing the same, is that network connectivity does not drop, rather that at least in some scenarios (as is my experience with NFC enabled) network data drops. Really curious if anyone else out there has seen the same on the most recent build and in particular if anyone else has seen a conflict with NFC enabled.
Try matching your radio interface layer with the radio version. This app will help

My baseband and RIL match. Now i'm using franco m4 but the problem persists.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
RIL and baseband matching here too. Thx for suggestion though. Handy little app too.
Unrelated, perhaps.
Sorry, but this might not be related: I have an issue with the phone going into 2G when I'm at work -- 23rd floor office. I must manually change it to 2G/Edge every time. All the other folks around me seem to continue without issue and are able to make calls although their signal isn't too hot. GetRIL says baseband and RIL match. I'm using XXLA2 on AT&T in NYC.
Tried searching around for a solution, but I'm not finding anything.
I had the data drop issue as well, not sure if this is related, but around the same time I matched up my RIL, I also switched from francokernel to glados. I have been using glados 1.34 & have not had the issue since.

I've noticed that data connection seems to drop when I switch apps. Does this happen to anybody else? Whenever I switch from one app to another, say from Chrome to Twitter, data connection is lost and then reconnects in about 5 to 10 seconds. There's been occasions when I've lost network signal completely and the only fix, other than to reboot, seems to be to turn airplane mode on and to turn it off again.
I have a GSM Gnex. Is this a hardware problem or will it be fixed with 4.0.5?
Is anybody else have problem with this? The connection often behave very strange. The only thing that "fix" this is a reboot of the mobile. Airplane mode off and on doesn't do the trick.

Sometimes I have to reboot the phone too to get data network to work again. I'm on stock JB.

Yes, I experienced that. All ROMs, all basebands. Seems to be an hardware issue. My Nexus is sent in because of that right now, and I hope it gets replaced.
Oh, and: Rebooting didn't help in any way. Network was before and after just the same: Plain horrible.
Exactly like that Phantom. Is many experience this problem? Maybe everybody with a GNexus? Is this problem serious enough to get a new phone? It's quite disturbing, it feels like my mobile will never be stable.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Hey there,
I have exactly the same problem with GNexus. Wifi works fine, but 3G randomly stops working (can't check email, facebook and browse), reboot does help, but it's very annoying to turn off and on mobile phone. Did anyone manage to fix this problem or did you get a new phone?
Same problem even on 4.2
Hey guys,
I was wondering if you got any news about this as the problem is still persistent on stock 4.2.
One difference I noticed since 4.1 is that the data connection will rapidly switch from 3G to HSPA when the loss of connection appears. It doesn't solve the problem though...
For me, it seems the issue comes when you switch from HSPA to WiFi to HSPA and from HSPA to 2G/Edge to HSPA (and maybe after a long period of HSPA).
Never had a problem in 2G so I force it to avoid the reboot most of the time but it's slow...
I used my Galaxy Nexus on Tmobile in the US and on Free Mobile in France. So it's definitely not a provider problem I guess...
But on these two data plans, I have a limit of HSPA usage (3GB) which then should force the connection to 2G. So would the usage check by the provider would somehow mess up with the data connection?
Anyway, any info on this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Max
I am having this issue as well. My roommate and we both have nexus 4 hers does not have this problem I am wondering what could be causing my phone to keep switching from 3g to HSPA + besides the sim
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Anyone come up with a fix for this? Been searching all night and nothing useful except reboot which doesn't work. I'm getting the same problem on mine. After having the phone for a year or so, it just decided to go into this "Phantom Airplane mode" Only thing I did recently was I switched to T Mobile Straight Talk sim, because Straight Talk didn't have any more AT&T sim cards and I thought it was the sim card. This is just annoying me. lol. I tried everything, from reflashing to stock rom, to cm10.1, flashed some radios and basebands and nothing. I don't even know if I can get a replacement or fixed because it has been over a year which sucks. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

That was the problem I had with mine. I tried everything from wiping, to putting ROMs on to stock and still had the issues. Check your information like imei in your settings and if you have a lot of unknown s then you may have to send it in like I did.

Has anyone else been getting pathetically low network speeds? I cant get more than 200kbps with two different roms that I am using. Is it just me or is anyone else experiencing it?

First of all, everyone's network speeds will vary by carrier and location.
Are you talking about wireless internet?
Are you on 3G or LTE?
What are you using to get your speed results?
My speeds could be great, and I walk two feet over and its horrible. My phone will hop to a different cell tower. Or while I'm at home I could be in a dead zone so my wireless will drop out. You need to be much much much more specific then what your telling us.
The chances of another fellow xda member using the same cell tower or your wireless router is slim to none. Just so your aware. Could be a problem with your carrier as well

I am talking about 3g and lte. It started last week and I havent had good network speeds since then. I have switched roms three times and I have not gotten any better speeds. I am using speedtest.net app to get my speeds. I am on At&t and I realize that this differs from person to person but I am just getting tired of not being able to hardly anything without wifi.

I flashed the not 442 Google to my m919 and then lost LTE speeds it says connected but speed is 20kb max? On WiFi speeds are regular so I checked and reentered my APN to metro and then T-Mobile. In with metro pcs, I have searched all possible apns but have not had any luck. I attempted to switch back to prior ROM through restore but still had no speed. I am on 3gb plan but the month has rolled over now and I did not have throttle down on prior months of this significance. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My guess is you have the wrong APN settings, which might also include the MCC or the protocol.. Make sure every single entry is what it should be.

The signal bars are calibrated differently. Looking at actual signal readings I see a +/-2dB difference which is negligible.
Gotcha. I believe there's a way to recalibrate the battery if I remember correctly.

Hmmm did you guys edit anything after running the Unlocked US RUU? I didn't edit anything and I left my SIM card in throughout the Unlock, S Off and RUU procedures. After finishing the RUU I rebooted when promoted in order to use the SIM card.

Welp, I've tried wiping caches, running RUU again, etc and nothing seems to work. Still getting weak/dropped signal in areas I normally get great receptions. Can't test the original radio from T-Mobile cause they've yet to release one sooo I'm SOL haha.

No issues at all. Actually, my signal improved tremendously after the conversion and first update. I get 4G/4 bars where I used to get Nothing. Very pleased with this mod.
I left my SIM in the entire time. Rebooted as described.

Its all in your head
The actual signal should be the same.... It's the display (in bars) that can differ cause different thresholds can be used to represent the amount of signal. T-Mobile's 1.21 (I think it was) firmware was complete crap by the way...

Sure was lol. Although i did experience some issues initially where I wasn't able to receive calls/text after converting to Unlocked US. Gave it a few days and it kinda sorted itself out. Decided to go back to T-Mobile US.

Yea that's why I always go by the dbm now. The range seems to fluctuate when I'm on Unlocked US. Now that I'm on the newest T-Mobile OTA the signal is pretty stable. I hardly got to experience 1.2 cause I made sure to update before setting up the phone lol. Signal is one of those things that kinda irks me about HTC phones, from my One S up to the HTC 10. Wasn't too big of an issue to sway me tho.

That's very weird cause I did the same thing without any major issues. I'm waiting for the latest T-Mobile ruu and ill probably end up doing the same
It's purely an aesthetic difference due to how the phone maps the signal.
If you modify the phone to 6 signal bars from 5 it will also do the same thing as it doesn't know how to use the gen unlocked signal mapping rules for the added bars or in this case doesn't know how to map the t-mobile signal using the wrong ruleset.
