SMS wont be sent until restart

Hello.
I have a problem with a Touch HD2. Sometimes, when I send a message, it doesn't get sent until I restart / reboot the phone. When I do, all the messages gets sent at the same time.
I had the same problem with a Touch HD some months ago.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks for help.

hmm, interesting one, what is your device currently set to for sending messages, i.e. GSM, GPRS?
Have you recently updated rom, radio or changed ril?
Have you tried running automatic setup again?
Can you provide more info please

Yeah, could be a radio problem or your phone not logging onto local masts.
Try a manual roam,.... Go to your network selection, search for available networks, then pick a network you are not on, ideally a network that uses a diff network frequency band thing. So if your nwtwork uses 900 research one that uses 1800 or vice verser. When you select this 'wrong' network it sould give you some kind of error and you should lose all network coverage. Then re select your correct network.
Try power cycling,... Turn off your phone, remove SIM & Battery, hold power button for 5 - 10 seconds. Then put everything back in and turn on.
Last one,... Go onto internet on handset, load a page you have never been on before that has alot of data on it, amazon or something, while its trying to load the page pull the battery out. Then power cycle as above.
I worked for Vodafone Cust services about 8 yrs ago,.... those 3 things usually sorted network issues.

I have exactly the same problem on my HD2.
It's very occasional, and just a soft reset is necessary and everything's fine again.
I don't know why this happens.

Wifi connection connected but won't load pages

It said connected in the wifi setting and it shows bars but it just won't load any website in the browser .. anyone got a fix for this?

I have the same issue. Tried different combinations of restarting wifi, turning on/off cell data, on/off wifi calling, etc... all with no result. I've also tried on different networks (both public and private)-- it'd start working for a while and then all of a sudden stop and never work again.
Seems similar to the problem here: forums. t-mobile.c om/t5/T-Mobile-G2x/G2x-WiFi-DNS-issue-not-the-4G-switching-one/m-p/831439 (sorry there's a new user no link restriction)
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

is it specific to the browser or can you not move any data?
Idk, whenever I have had problems connecting to the tmo network, which is a separate issue.. it was always that wifi calling was still on even tho wifi was turned off. Every time I had probs w/ data on tmo network, it's been wifi calling.. Your case seems to be diff tho.
Is it specific to just your network or all other networks? Try shutting off wifi, reboot... then turn it on again? Idk.. just tossing out ideas.

Some found the root cause and I am posting his finding as I do have the same issue and can reproduce the error:
I think I have discovered a new WiFi-related bug in the G2x's software. I have witnessed this occurring on my phone, and have also reproduced it on a store demo unit. I believe it is unrelated to the switching-to-4G problem people are having with the My Account app, since it occurs even if I have set up the Google account on first boot after a factory reset.
The details of the problem are:
- Every so often, the phone randomly gets stuck in a state where it is not able to initiate any new connections that are made using a DNS name. Attempting to navigate to a web site, h**p://w*w.google.c*m for example, will result in a generic failure message.
- However, attempting to connect directly to an IP address instead of a DNS name works perfectly. For example, navigating to 74.125.225.16 will work fine and will load the Google home page.
- When the phone is in this state, using a DNS lookup tool such as "DNS Lookup" from the Marketplace *will* work, even when using the default DNS server address that the DHCP server is giving the phone.
- The problem has occurred for me when data is off and WiFi is on. I do not know if data being off is a requirement, since this is the way I usually run the phone, so this may be coincidental.
- Switching WiFi off and back on again will *sometimes* work to solve the problem, but sometimes will not. When this doesn't work, switching WiFi off, then switching data on, then back off again, and then finally switching WiFi back on again will occasionally correct the problem. However, I have seen situations where none of these things worked, and the only way to get DNS working again was to factory reset the phone.
- I haven't figured out the exact pattern yet, but this issue seems to occur when the phone has been inactive for a certain period of time. I have often discovered that the phone is in this state upon waking up in the morning after leaving the phone on the charger overnight.
- I have, however, found a method to reproduce the problem that seems to work fairly consistently:
1. Turn WiFi on, and data off.
2. Power cycle the phone.
3. When the phone starts up, start the browser and attempt to browse to w*w.google.c*m. It should fail.
4. Try to browse to 74.125.225.16. It should work.
Just wanted to get this issue in the forums to see how many others have been noticing the same thing.

I know that once the device has less than 10% battery it automatically turns the WiFi off to save battery power. Were the devices this was happening on have a low battery?

Fully charged. It even happens when pluged in with the charger.

My Wifi wouldn't even work if I froze it with Bloat Freezer. It has to run in the background for wifi to work. I found that Wifi can get really inconsistent with it disabled.

Same problem here. After about 30 minutes of being idle, as soon as I pick up the phone it tries to connect 2g/4g. The log are saying theres no connection, so it appears that wifi its going to sleep and not waking up so android is trying to connect 2g/4g
Really starting to be a pain
I have frozen the bloat, and I think the problem is getting worse.
Toggle airplane mode is a quick workaround to get wifi to wake up

Same thing happened to me, I did 2 factory resets, and it seems it has been fixed, don't really know what causes it.

This may or may not be related, but...
It looks like I found a hacky fix for the dns/wifi/4g bug: install "Set DNS" from the market.
Now when I go into market, and display my downloaded apps, it jumps from wifi to 4g then back to wifi as it should, fast.
Whether or not it should even do go to 4g is debatable, all I can say is my 2 Galaxy Tabs had the same behavior.
If everyones connectivity issues are really due to the DNS settings getting wiped out, then this will work around the problem until I/we find the location of the actual bug.

Would you guys having this problem also post it here?
http://www.lgforum.com/forum/boards/general/lg/topics/g2x-wifi-problems
Thanks.
I figure the more people that post there, the more the chances are of LG fixing it quickly.

Work around:
enable airplane mode
reboot
enable wifi
wait a few seconds after the wifi connects, background crap stops
disable airplane mode.
The set dns app looks like a winner. Haven't tried it but that's what's
wrong.
The freezing and other suggestions are all useless crap.

Updates...
I did a factory reset and installed JuiceDefender (I don't know which one worked) but it seems to be all fine now... will update if things become problematic again

I've been having this problem as well. I've always been able to fix it by toggling WiFi off and back on again. I downloaded SetDNS and when it happened again last night I tried that and it worked great.
Glad to see it's a software problem and not a hardware problem.

same problem here. hopefully it won't happen in cyanogen mod

This fixed the problem, at least until the next time I reboot my phone

How do you use SetDNS? This software bug in G2X reboots my router (DGL-4500) sometimes.

Question bout SetDNS app
Does the phone have to be rooted to use the setdns app? I try to use it but it says "Cannot get root. App will not function."

Not finding Wifi network

I have been using trickdroid for a while now with no problems. I was using screwing around with the GO Power app and changed some settings with connecting to wifi when the screen was off. Shortly after doing this i realized that I could not use wifi at all. I have changed the settings back to default and i am still having trouble. Eventually I removed the app. Now my phone wont find my wifi network, and if it does and I try to connect, it will disappear. Can someone help me? I have tried toggling the airplane mode and the mobile network with no results.

you can always flash another ROM =\

+1 on flashing new rom from scratch
then to go back to torxx rom just do a fresh install
or you could just try a full wipe including system and reinstall torxx rom first
maybe even try a different kernel

[Q] Problem With APN/Mobile Data on XT926

The other day I was on my Razr HD and the mobile data stopped working. This has happened before so i went down the list of checking if my data was set to on, airplane mode was off, etc. Everything was how it should be, and I still cant use my mobile data. The only time the 4G logo shows up is when I am connected to a wifi network, and when I turn wifi off, the logo goes away. In the status settings it shows my Mobile Network State as disconnected. I searched the forums and saw something about making a new APN, or editing an existing one, but it wont let me edit the APNs and there is no option to make a new APN. As a last resort I did a factory reset of the phone, and the problem is still happening. Does anyone have a clue what is going on?

You can try Tweakker in the play store....there are others as well

I have tried that but to get it it to work i need to make a new APN, and phone doesnt display that option anywhere. The only option it has is "reset to default"

Just use House of Moto and flash with the keepdata script

I had the same issues on official 4.4.2 (XT907 - Razr M)
I fix it with replacing APNS.CONF (*/system/etc)
I took APNS.CONF from KitStalk (AOSP-based ROM)
To this way you need to have root-access
You can try attached APNS.CONF
Don`t forget to backup original file!
Good luck!

WiFi cycling off and back on every so often, and sometimes disabling itself

Sometimes my WiFi goes away, LTE kicks in for a second, and then WiFi comes right back. I don't know for certain, but it may only happen when the phone has been unused for a while, right after I first pick it up to do something. But I have the WiFi power saving option turned off, so that WiFi should stay on all the time. And I seem to recall it happening just at random sometimes, too, in the middle of browsing websites or social media apps. It'll say "no connection" and I'll look up and see LTE kick in, then WiFi come right back, then I'm all good. It's very annoying.
On top of the quick WiFi cycling issue, sometimes WiFi will just completely stop working. When I go into settings, it says it's disabled and I can't turn it back on. Going in and out of airplane mode fixes it. This only happens about once a week or so. The other issue is by far more annoying.
Anyone else experiencing either of these? I'm on Verizon with a black 128 GB stock, unrooted, if it makes a difference.
Thanks!

I personally haven't seen this on my VZW Pixel although I use it with T-Mobile service. These are as suggestions only, and it may or may not help, but you could try using any order below.
1) The setting to keep WiFi during sleep is on, right?
2) Have you tried to use your phone without sim card in it and see if WiFi is still acting strange?
3) I would also suggest to go to Settings>Google>Networking and see if you have WiFi assistant on or off. There is a setting under advanced as well.
4) Does it happen on all WiFi networks or when using on particular one? You could forget that network and then join again.
5) Alternatively you could "Network settings reset" under Settings>More>Network Settings Reset - after the reset, you may need to rejoin all the networks, pair Bluetooth devices and so on.
