Hi,
My connection is HSDPA(the letter H is shown).
I was trying to access the internet while making a voice call. Sometimes it works, but most of the time the icon changes to G or E and go to suspended!!!
After the voice call ends, it goes back to H!!!
Is anyone having this issue?
That happens to me a lot when I'm in an area with almost no 3G signal. I get the 3G and H with one or two signal bars until a call comes in and it shows E and shows 3 or 4 signal bars. Haven't had these issues inside a major metro area with strong 3G signal.

I'm new to the Windows Mobile platform using GSM and I'm trying to understand the operation of GPRS connection. I have a PPC, HTC TyTn, and I use it to connect to the internet. Most of the time I get a good signal with the antenna and four or five bars next to it. I also get the E or G icon for the GPRS connection. Sometimes when I move into an area I get the antenna symbol with an "!" next to it and the "G" symbol. From my understanding the "!" means no service but I can still connect to the internet. My questions is, due you need phone voice service to get a GPRS connection.
Thanks

yes voice is the lowest common denominator
both gprs, edge, 3g, h use the same signals
and voice is the base
Thanks for your reply but I'm still confused. I understand gprs and voice use the same signal but my phone indicates "no service". I can't dial out or receive calls but I can connect to the gprs network and get on the internet. My understanding is "no service" means voice service or the phone could not register on the network. If this is true how can I get gprs service or connectivity .
2 reasons as i see it
1. i'm wrong
2 you are roaming on a network which for some reason only roam data
I live in an area where my 3G signal strength is often 1 bar or below and is weak but my non 3G signal strength is 4 bars and strong.
Is there an app that I can use to set up when 3G cuts out and reverts to normal GSM signal.. I know I can set 3G to auto switch but it only cuts in when it feels like and often this means my phone is limbo with no 3G signal and no auto option to switch over to GSM and will often just drop my signal mid call at home.. or am I asking too much.. cheers..
When your 3G signal becomes weak it should automatically switch to GSM. If switching between the two is causing your phone to drop calls you can lock your phone to GSM only by changing it via the Comm Manager, tap on "change phone settings" and then "Band" on the bottom.
ok. cheers..
Hi All,
How do I make it so that my phone will not try and connect to the internet via 3G (the signal icon on the status bar has 3G written on it). Whenever my phone switches to 3G, internet doesnt work. this has been a problem for me here in Aus on multiple phones. While the icon says H, internet works awesome but the second it switches to 3G internet stops working until it switches back to H. It wouldnt be too bad, if it wasnt for the fact that the bloody thing switches back and forth every 5 seconds if Im in a good reception area, which is almost all the time.
Are you rooted/custom ROM? It sounds like it could be a poorly performing radio. Search for the radio/ril thread. You might find some answers there. You can switch your phone to 2G or 3G networks only, but the 3G option also includes H. So even if you left out the 2G you'd still suffer the same issues.
I have an interesting problem : On my XT925 ( XenonHD rom), I have no signal bar at all while connected to a 4G network(0 db). I can still make call and the signal bar actually appears when I call, but as soon as I hang up the bars go back to 0. While I switch to a 3G or H+ network, I can see my signal bar.
I have no 4G connection problem, data works fine.
I guess its no really a problem... I just wish I could see my signal strength in 4G.
Anyone as ever came across something like that ?

I read that in the change logs of a few ROMs that the 4G signal strength display is a little wonky. If you needed to see the actual signal strength you could you into Settings -> About Phone -> Status. Alternatively, you could change the status bar setting to show numerical signal strength at all times instead of bars.
no luck...

Not working....when I switch to numerical display for the signal strength I get 0 dBm. As soon as I call out or receive a call it goes to -90dBm, stays up for 30 sec. and then goes back to 0.....
On a different note, the satus says that Im connected to LTE while the bar indicator read 4G.

Having the same issue with 4.2/4.3 roms. Thought it might have to do with network. Tried a few different settings, but no fix yet, and I'm not sure all calls come through. Data connection is no problem though. 4G /LTE are inter-changeable. Hopefully there's a fix it somewhere.
Hello everyone, I have oneplus 8 IN2019 Verizon with unlocked carrier and using different sim card outside USA. My phone is on Android 11.
I keeps on getting these messages (pictures attached) you are currently out of mobile network range, even though I have few bars or sometimes full bars, I can't even make single calls but receive all the call on low bars
