Does anyone know why my phone would think it's in san francisco when it's actually in Florida? This just occurred. My data dropped, and after a restart, I've been magically teleported.

My phone's Time AND date have also been acting funny. First it thought it was the 27th and then it went back to today and then later it thought it was the 28th.

About twice a month, it seems like 4g data goes down in phoenix. Anyone experiencing this? I change to LTE mode in dad bamf settings and get nothing.

Negative, I work in PHX live in Gilbert... it's never gone down for me... I have had the phone occasionally lock itself in 3G when I know I'm in a 4G zone, but a reboot or LTE on/off usually fixes that.
Mine was out last night but thought it was mostly due to storm, back up again as I am using it now. Queen Creek is my location.

Thanks guys, I am guessing it is a radio issue. Will try reseting.

i have lost my 4G service in Phoenix before but then i switch set dns to the google dns option and it works.
Other than sporadic issues lasting a few minutes, have not had any outages in the past few months. Out in the Queen Creek area.

How'd you like that storm? I live in the outskirts of Queen Creek where the microburst hit. Kinda weird seeing twenty powerlines turned into splinters, looks like something snapped them at the base like twigs.

no 4G in my area yet, although since yesterday the 3G has been going up & down regularly and is still doing it today. a friend of mine has a Droid Charge and has said the same thing is happening with her phone.
the "3G" logo will suddenly disappear & the bars will go off, then it'll either come right back up(or after a few seconds) and sometimes will show "1X".
i'm in Carlsbad, CA btw. i wonder what the hell Verizon is doing....
Mine cut out for a minute or so but nothing major.
i live in the tempe/scottsdale area and have never gotten 4g outages
Works for me as well. Scottsdale/Phoenix border.
Its been intermittent for a day or two in Dallas/Fort Worth when ever they do the network upgrade nationwide for the new networks to come online.
last night my phones time jumped 4 hours a head of my time . gps is fine it locked with in 30 meters ...
mine did this too, i had to go in and set the time my self.
Weird. Mine also. My wife thought i was messing with the time to make it look like i did not called anyone during the day yesterday.

CM7 - Settings/Date & Time/ and u can either set time, or change the timezone. this worked for me.
I have had the same thing happening. I had to manualy set it.
Mine would jump 5 hours then i went to automatic time it went back then would jump again. Happen after I flashed kh1 modem.

Mine did this too. Odd. What I did was go to settings>date and time>unchecked automatic and rechecked automatic and that fixed it. Hopefully this helps.
I reflashed the previous modem also and it fixed the problem. Must be a glitch with the new modem.

Nope no problem here.
Yup, I had to manually set it this morning. I thought it might have had something to do with the flash-a-holic fit I had earlier this morning tho.
Those who are reporting problems should state their local time zone.
The reports seem to be mainly Central/Mountain time people based on posted locations, no Eastern time zone reports I've seen so far.

Like Eric, I have no problems here. I had a problem earlier but I flashed the KI3 modem and now it seems to be getting the time properly.
Atlanta and have had to set to manual.
Seems like it started after trying the leeked Gingerbread rom. Although I went back to stock and am running Infused 1.6 at the moment.
Every time I try to set it to automatic it jumps ahead 4 hours.
Some one post a link to the modem that came with s7 or the modem before the beta I flashed the beta modem too . I'm betting its the modem that's causing it

For the past couple of days around the same time 10pm I have lost my signal and it doesn't reappear until the morning, or at least that's what happened this morning. I'm running Apex 10 and the 5.1.2 of Talon. It's very frustrating because I can't use the damn thing as a phone and I'm not even sure if the signal will come back. This just randomly started happening what could be the problem??
Thanks

Tower maintenance?
The last time I saw that on my phone was when at&t was back hauling a tower. I'd give them a call and see
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using xda premium
Thanks, the fact that Apex is an i9000 rom seemed to be the problem, because my signal went out again tonight. I flashed Fasty III to my phone and magically I had a phone signal! Thanks again, really appreciate it!
Did anyone else on R3VELATiON v2 not have their time update for day light savings? My wife's captivate running another collective ROM (mosaic) did but my infuse didn't. I had to reboot it this morning to update it. Is there a setting somewhere that I missed?
Also, I checked my build prop and the time zone in there is set to new York. I'm in central time, would it make a difference if I changed it to Chicago?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Did yours finally do it? I am in chicago, and it did not do it till closer to noon, but I did not have to do anything, it just finally changed.
I was impatient, I rebooted my phone this morning and it updated from the network time, but I had to kick it in the pants. I'm actually in Texas but I know in general when talking timezones, Chicago is used for central.

So, I love this phone but have one issue that seems odd to me. As an example I am currently running pandora and tried opening the xda app which caused what appeared to be a fc but my phone kept running pandora and went to a black screen for a minute then a faded screen which eventually lead to a drop in data (briefly). Every thing was briefly unresponsive... It acted exactly like a reboot without rebooting. When I was able to unlock the screen I had no data service (briefly) and all apps closed. Xda app often fc's which is not a big deal to me but causing the black screen and data drop is concerning to me. I also had this happen when opening the phone info app while running nothing else. Should I be concerned about this? Software or hardware? I am running stock.
Edit: Have also had to reboot due to dropped data but it may have been during a switch between 4G or 3g even 1x.

same thing happens to me, not sure why. I went through and froze all bloat with titanium backup, and it still happens
It's not something I can make happen, just happens randomly. I have 5 days to return this so I would like to figure it out. If a software update would fix it I would just deal with it for now but I'm not sure what the problem is.

I just talked to Samsung on their live chat and they recommended I return the phone and exchange for new. I am still in the 14 day return window so I will ask for brand new even if I have to pay their $35 fee.

The policy is there is no $35 reatocking fee for the same phone swap. Don't let them tell you different. Your phone is DOA. Its a warranty exchange.

Replacement phone just did the exact same thing..... Seriously only one other person has this problem?

No.. tons of us have data issues. My phone hot booted in my hands the other night and it was the first time I experienced it, but I've seen reference to it before.
Your issues are not isolated.
I gave up with tech support and wishing a new phone would fix it and turned to third party development. My first time flashing a ROM. I used synergy and have been really thrilled with it.
Sucks to have to fix a brand new phone. Sucks to be a beta tester for Samsung and vzw.
Sorry for your troubles though.

Ahh.. no. Sorry. Have you tried wiping/restoring the phone? Lame, I know...
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
I did not try wiping the phone because the first one was only nine days old and I had not done much with it. The second one lasted a day and now I am on my third. I really hope this does not happen again. The people at the Verizon store said they have never heard of this..... They think it's an app... I only have 12 apps installed. I don't know what I'm going to do if this happens with this phone. This is frustrating. I do not want to get stuck with a phone that has a problem like this.

Mine does the same thing. Besides the stock stuff, I loaded Pandora, Google Music, Amazon MP3, and Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: Master of the Seas game. It was nice enough to wait until just after the 14 day return window to start locking up and misbehaving. The only way I could get it back was to do a battery pull. Of course, when I brought it to the store it ran like a champ! If you can get another replacement, make sure it says 'UPDATED' on the box. Those have a newer kernel / baseband and seem to be working better.
All of mine have said updated on the box. I am trying to limit apps for now and will slowly add them if I have no issues.
