Has anyone had a problem today where your phone just cannot connect to ATT's 3G or HSPA network? For some reason, my phone is getting little-to-no signal, and if I do, it is only on GPRS... I CWM'd to my stable nandroid, but no dice, leading me to think that this problem is with the network.
What's XDA's thought on this? Possible dev issue?

Their network is just pretty terrible right now. However, by summer we'll probably be singing a different tune about ATT's coverage when the iPhone user population will even out a bit. Also, I believe ATT threw down a few billion for network upgrades this year. It seems like they really took that Consumer Reports article to heart, so I actually see good things in the future.
i haven't had 3G in 24+ hours in NJ. stock, non-rooted.
Must be location specific; -51 dB and HSDPA in Dallas
It happens every now and then in las vegas usually right after a flash. I start to change modems and other stuff then realize "dammit I bet the network is screwed up" sure enough next day things are working again. Damn phone companys lol

You're quite close to where I am, it's probably regional then, but my old crappy phones' 3G is working fine though...

funny thing metro pcs is working better than ATT in south florida. metro is known for bad bad reception
No problems with 3G at the places I frequent in the Tampa Bay area.
I've not had any problems with 3G connections this year.

interesting.. i spent a few hours yesterday with my phone going in and out with GPRS and no network connection at all. i've had fairly consistent EDGE ever since. i normally see 5 bars of 3G at my current location (newark, NJ).
reboots and battery pulls seem to have no effect.
-99db & HSDPA here in Tampa Bay area.

No AT&T 3G here...but I use edge network, get mostly 3 to 5 bars mostly indoors or outdoors depending on location. At my work, it's pretty good signal and get around 150-180kbps speed but at home is slower which is around 100-125kbps or slower, probably. I usually use wifi at my home with my own internet.
Out of Davenport, IA and I have great HSDPA signal running Perception 10.1 with the included 2.6.32.9 Firebird Kernel. I have flashed a bunch of DGs ROMs and never had issues with connectivity (voice or data).
I also get that the sim card.has been removed and its pissing me off.... btw, im on phoenix 3.5 with a setiron 1.5.6

I have 3G again, but regardless of HSPA or UMTS, I am getting .06Mbps down and about .4Mbps up. I have absolutely no idea why. I'm in Bridgewater, NJ.
I am in much the same predicament as you, reboots and pulls don't help. I've gone a step further and flashed 5 different ROMs today, no luck.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
actually my 3G just came back a few hours ago too. 2-4 Mbps down and about 0.3 Mbps up, which are normal 3G speeds for me. and i didn't do anything to my phone, 3G just magically reappeared after at least a full 24 hours of only EDGE. strange.

Las Vegas + ATT = terrible.
I just went on a 2 say trip there, took me 2 hours to download a 37kb attachment with full bars. I'd get 30 text messages at once an hour late, with full bars.
If I had to work on the strip I'd drop att in a heartbeat... that is totally unfunctional!!
I've been fine elsewhere... and maybe that's just a bad day /spot... but damn!

My definition of normal is >3Mbps down, >1.5Mbps up... How is yours so different when you are so near? I get these speeds regardless if I'm on HSUPA or UMTS. I tend to use the latter to save battery.
The more I look, the more I think that ATT just capped my speeds 2 nights ago. This is crap. No modem change, nothing fixes it.

Anyone else in the NYC area having data issues? My data connection went down around midday today and hasn't returned. I called Verizon and they said that several towers were down in the area, but a friend with a Droid Incredible had a solid 3G connection this evening. I'm wondering if this is an issue with my phone or if it's the network.
I'm running a rooted TB with Virus ROM.
im in new york my service been good all day...I travel from queens to bronx

Hey, you were right up by me!
Downtown NYC and South Shore of Long Island.....had 4g all day....no blips at all!
Jersey city here... no problems at all
Thanks for the feedback. Going to flash a couple of new kernels and see if that might be the issue. Flashing back to stock hasn't helped, though, so I'm not hopeful.

I live in Central Jersey too and was having problems during the day. My phone seems fine now though.
In the event that I'm not the only person in all of NYC having issues, I'll post a quick follow up before calling it an evening. I've tried flashing back to stock, flashing a new kernel, toggling the radio off and on, multiple battery pulls, basically anything I could think of and nothing has worked. I called Verizon again and they said they still have towers out in the NYC metro area. I was encouraged to wait until tomorrow to see if data returns.
Here's hoping that I will wake up to a solid 4G connection.
Try Jcase's LTE on/off app. It may fix your issue if it somehow went to off.

I didn't lose connection yesterday, but my battery drained faster than it ever has since I got the phone. I chalked it up to network issues and the 4G radio searching for the signal. I didn't really use my phone at all yesterday, but at like 5:30 I noticed my phone was really hot.
The drain was ridiculous - over 50% in about 3 hours.
I do have the LTE On/Off app, but thanks for the suggestion. I've tried swapping between every different radio available on that app and no luck with anything. I can't get 4G, 3G, or 1x data connection.
Verizon is saying that they are still working on network issues in the NYC metro area. It seems completely insane that I'm the only one having this issue though. I don't know much about how cell networks operate, but is it possible that there is a network issue that is affecting me and no one else on this board? That seems extremely implausible, but maybe it's just something that I don't know enough about.
I have to live with it for today, but if it's not sorted by end of day today I think I'm due for a return.

I have a feeling it's affecting me as well... the only difference is that my phone still says I have service. The reason I think it's affecting me is the ridiculous battery drain I've been experiencing the last 2 days.
Typically, I get around 3-5% battery loss every hour... I like that rate. Yesterday and today I'm getting 15-25% battery drain ever hour and my phone is very hot
I turned off the 4G radio a few minutes ago and I'll see if that has any affect
Both of you should:
1: Pull the Battery
2: Remove the Sim Card
3: Put Battery back in
4: Boot the Phone WITHOUT the Sim Card
5: Once it boots and gives you errors, shut down the phone
6: Put SIM back in and boot normally
This allows the phone to Re-Register on the Network. See if that helps.
I had connectivity issues yesterday, but so far its been fine today (tethering).

Called Tech support and they said they have an issue in Texas right now, worked fine till around 10:45 then quit.
data problems with 4g in dfw here...
I'm having some intermittent issues in OKC too, like up-arrow being lit but down arrow is not (sync icon pops up a lot), but then again, the rain and t-storms are hitting hard outside, so possibly a weather issue....for me?!
LTE data has been out/intermittent in Central Texas for several hours. Forcing the phone to 3G only seems to fix it.
Yup seeing the same, earlier was switching to 1xRTT and then 3G I am still on 3G grabbing 4G occasionally again in Houston.

Back up in Houston on North Loop 610 area, speeds are noticeably slower right now.
I've noticed that everytime new service areas are activated, the current users go WITHOUT service for hours. Like today.. I havent had 3g, 4g, but been able to get texts for the better part of an hour...
What's the deal?

There's going to be growing pains with their 4G network. If they decided not to expand until it was 100% operational, we'd still be stuck with 1X nationwide. I still have problems with 3G in certain areas where I lose data consistently. I am sure Verizon has tolerance levels where say 99% uptime is considered "good enough".
No 4G for me in DFW area of Texas. Had it two hours ago but just goes to 1x when I go LTE mode. 3G working fine.

I'm in DFW. I get 4G fine. If I go to 3G setting I get nothing. Been happening for 2 days and I'm getting frustrated. I even tried flashing radio and rom thinking it was just me because I recently went to CM7.

Me too, i live in cullman an travel to decatur alot, an can't wait for them to light it up all the way to hartselle
had a drop of 4g last night, but didn't seem to have any problems today. Living in San Antonio.
but now that I say that, I am getting no signal at all... Just an x on the signal bar, guess I'll reboot.
I lost data the other night for about an hour at around 2am. When it came back on I had 4g for about 30 minutes. Guess they were testing. It's supposed to go live on the 21st in my area, and after that 30 minutes I can't wait. I usually get around 300-600 k down at my house since its down on a hole but I was getting almost 20m down and 16 up when it was working. I can live with the rare outage if the end product is going to be that good.

It literally just started working again. I'm rooted, CM7, MR2 radio.
I've been experiencing data issues for past 2-3 days now. I'll put my screen on and will notice lack of data icon. I'll get it back by turning radio off/on. I'm still running on original root and radio and till now data has been a non-issue. Maybe newest VZ update made some radio changes and old radios now have issues?
If I were to stay with original rooted rom, which radio should I try? I want to jump on CM7 but people still report 4G issues.
I'm at USC in LA, and since yesterday my phone has been having issues connecting to LTE. I haven't heard any news of outages,though, so I'm wondering if something is borked with my phone. I was on CM7, but I tried going completely back to stock and still no dice. Is anyone else having LTE issues?
haven't heard of anything but gaving the same issues since yesterday. In the Burbank area.
Oh, good — then maybe there's a chance that it's not just my phone. Even 3G sometimes drops out, and nothing comes up for LTE Only except 1X.
Weird that nobody is reporting anything, though.

if you are using the radio from chingys leak that is the problem,best one I found for la is the original ota update radio
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
I think it was an outage because 4G kept flickering all day yesterday and now it seems steadily on today without me changing anything. Thanks for the suggestion though.
there's no LTE yet where i am, but every now and then the 3G will cut in & out for about a day or so(and get stuck at 1X). whenever i call Verizon about it they'll either say there's work being done in my area or an area nearby and just said they could transfer me to a tech to see if there's something on my phone not set correctly or will just give the b.s. "pull your battery for 30 seconds" bit.
good luck if you call them
I'm at USC as well and didn't notice any issues. I was on MR2.5 and flashed the new 802 radio last night which seems even better connection and speed-wise. What radio are you using?
I'm in West LA, on the latest leak, no issues at all yesterday or today.
Currently running on 1x like a boss. Wait a minute that ain't good 4g down on the east side of the city.

same here, it hit about a hour ago. I been reflashing radios and different roms. I think its due to the new cities being added to the 4g network
