Anyone else facing a problem of lost data connection during a call? It happens even even with wifi connection. I sometimes need to use the internet during a call... but the internet connection automatically disappears for the duration I'm on call. As soon as I end the call everything is normal.
When on LTE the phone automatically switch to 3G/UMTS during call (VoLTE is not supported by much providers yet).
During the switch if you're in a bad 3G area or with many people on your cell data connection is lost, the phone gives the priority to the call obviously. LTE is working very differently so that's why you can have a nice LTE data connection and without moving a ****ty UMTS data connection.
I've managed to browse web during my calls without issues on the 5T.

I noticed that when i am on a call my data connection dissapears and when i hang up the connectino returns.. is this a known issue? or does anyone know how to fix this?
Also the connection drops a couple of times a day (random intervals) and i have to enable and disable airplane mode to reinstate the connection..
if you got only a 2G signal, this is normal and has been asked multiple times.
It also depends on your network. Some networks don't allow simultaneous voice and data, even on 3G!
as for the random drops, that ain't normal but can be the network killing the connection from their end to free up bandwidth on a inadequate network or cell.
of course, it could also be a dodgy phone :-(
It's normal in 2 situations:
- you are on 2G (GPRS, EDGE)
- you have poor signal and the phone can't cope and prefers to keep the voice connection.
Have you tried to browse while talking and it didn't work or is it just the indicator that disappears?
Works for me, called my landline from mobile, dropped to the home screen once the call connected, then loaded google in the internet browser (and it even detected my location!) Oh I was on hsdpa btw.
I know that Orange phones wont allow data and voice simultaneously
Im on orange and i just tested it on a 3g connection, it does work for me
I'm on t mobile UK, as I said above works here.

I am facing a problem related to 3G data connection.
The problem is as follow, while having a talk (voice) many times the data connection (3G/H) drops due to some reasons and never re-established until phone call is over.
I found this to be very annoying, if no phone call been done the data connection is perfect 99% of the time but doing voice call disconnect the data (both 3G/H) and never re-established until the phone call is over.
Once the call is over, the data connection resumed (3G/H indicators shown)
Please advise
Thanks,
Because the voice call needs your connection to the operator and that's why the data connection is terminated while the voice call is active.
Happened to me on every phone (LG KU 990, Samsung Omnia, HTC Desire).

You are correct but...3G/H supposed to allow data&voice in parallel, and sometimes is does work such. But once the data connection terminates it never re-established until voice is over.
You are right, but not at all operators, just tested ORANGE SK with HSDPA signal... drops after a voice call is beign made.
BTW, are you GSM or CDMA?
Just learned, that if you are using a custom ROM, can make this problem. Also are you set to WCDMA preffered in the *#*#4636#*#* menu?
GSM
yes - WCDMA is set
Network type - UMTS
Is it just a case of the icon disappearing during the call? Try starting a download whilst on 3G/H/E connection and then make a phone call, switch to the market and check to see if the progress bar is... progressing (excuse the pun!), if it is then data is still active. If your on a GPRS network, data would be disconnected for the call.
This is annoying me, all data connections work and only 3g won't work.
I'm using the 30_2 radio and never really noticed any problems. But right now it will take a data disable/enable to get up from 3g to HSDPA again. When the 3g icon is up it does get an IP in the 188.x.x.x range, I can see data outgoing but now it doesn't step up to HSDPA anymore it just stays at 3g with no data incoming.
Any suggestions, I'm at a loss
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?
Has anyone else found that when they are making a call they lose most of their data throughput with Android P? I used to be able to multitask during a call and open web pages or other apps but now if I am on a call I get incredibly reduced data speeds until I hand up the call. I tried turning off the Advanced calling setting but then I lose data capability completely
Nope, mine works fine.
Is your phone dropping from 4g,LTE or whatever name it gets in your country to 3g? While on a call, my old phone did this, but the pixel 2 should be supporting VOLTE, or whatever they call it.
Sounds to me it is dropping to 3g while on a call tho.
