I've been having an annoying problem lately. I'm running theory of ginger 4.2 and lately my 4G connection will just drop out and it won't reconnect for 5+ minutes. If I manually disable and reenable the connection it immediately grabs 4G back. It will stay steady for maybe 40 minutes and then drop out. This has happened on the MR2 and MR2.5 radios. Suggestions?

Mine does this routinely on a stock phone. Dunno if it's the network or the phone.
Dont know if this phone/network was ready for primetime
Mine just started doing this a few days ago.

So I flashed to CM7 on a froyo radio and I'm still having connection issues. How hard is it to get a replacement sim card? I think that might be the culprit honestly.

just call Verizon or go to a store.
Should I take cm7 off or just don't show them my phone.

i doubt it's the sim cards doing this... it's for sure the radio's. the mr1 radio on froyo drops my 3g to 1x alot, so did mr2 but mr2.5 was perfect for me. i just want a functional radio to ship this week.
It just started a few days ago, and a friend of mine with the thunderbolt isn't having the issues I'm having.

Mine started doing that last week while on Gingeritis final. I flashed all kinds of roms & radios (including Froyo) with no improvement. I even went to verizon & swapped sim cards, and still no better. I went back to bone stock and finally got reliable 4G again. Very frustrating
I've been having this issue for a couple of weeks at home but at work the LTE connection is rock solid. I think it's the network where I'm at. I went back to an old Froyo build and radio set and it was the same issue. I've tried every radio combo both GB and Froyo ROM's and it behaves the same way. At work no issue...at home I have to switch to wifi. It'll show LTE with bars (sometimes full 4...usually 3) and I will have activity on the up/down arrows and it'll work for a minute and then stop working until finally the LTE icon goes away and it goes to 1x (or even sometimes 3G and I'm in LTE mode.)
Its looking more and more like a network problem. Might as well save myself a trip to the Verizon store. Oh well, not that big of a deal I guess. Stand in line for 40 minutes for them to tell me they can't help.

Mine does this but I'm on the edge of the 4G signal where I live. I just lock in 3G and don't worry about it. When I get in an area I need to use some speed I turn 4G back on.

I have been having issues with the 4g in Phoenix. Is anybody else having similar problems?
The market won't open. Dolphin can't connect. Mobile HotSpot can't connect. Just making sure it isn't just my phone...
Seems to be fine here. I was downtown earlier. And now in scottsdale. Had an issue with random reboot and visual voicemail but otherwise all good

I had it drop out on me a couple times yesterday (I'm around the I-17 and Peoria), VZW has acknowledged there are some issues with the network that they are working on.
Work in Tempe and live in E. Mesa and 4G is very sporadic for me.

My 4g has been horrible. The icon will show up but I can't access any data even after a reboot.

Issues here in San Diego last night. Maybe they are working their way eastward
What kind of speed are you guys getting? I am getting 6 to 7 down and 3 to 4 upload speeds on average when on 4G.

Mine has been a bit wonky today...full 4G, then nothing, then full 4G, then nothing, then 3G, then 4G, etc.
I just keep thinking Verizon is working on the network. I kind of expect it with 4G being so new. I'm just loving it...mostly. The dropouts do get annoying...mostly because they only seem to happen when I want data for some reason.

Thanks guys. I have been flashing Rom after Rom trying to see if that was the problem. When the times are good, I have been getting up to 16mbps today, just keeps dropping for no reason. So I will keep my cool and hope this gets cleaned up soon!
Just recently flashed BAMF GingerRemix 2.0.6, and noticed I no longer have 4G any longer at home (Mountain View, CA). I first thought my 4G was entirely gone on my phone with the new radio+ROM, but then it came back about 20miles away from home yesterday.
I'm currently sitting here next to another rooted Tbolt that has 4G, but mine is showing only 3G. I've tried toggling 4G on and off, but to no avail?
Any suggestions out there? Would reflashing the radio do anything? I was coming from Bamf1.7, but can't recall whether I had the same problem then.
Thanks for any help!
I have the same damn problem and can't figure it out!

So... Was I was running the leaked ep1w gingerbread leak, and got sick of the random reboots. Yesterday, my phone would not connect to 3g. I had signal and data was turned on. I could make calls and SMS, but no data access. I could connect to 4G when it was available, and everything was great. I reverted to ee4 stock, hoping the older modem firmware would correct it. No luck. Same issue persists. No 3g, only 4G. Anyone have any ideas?

Go to the store and have them replace your sim card. I had the exact same issue two days ago. Fixed it right away. I had to stand there and wait for half an hour because their troubleshooting program doesn't cover this issue.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
It fixed itself 2 days later. Weird. Unfortunately, as a verizon employee, I have to have a replacement sim sent to me, which wouldn't work as I will be on a cruise as of tomorrow. Just glad it's working now. I refuse to switch it to 4G because I don't want to lose my 3g again.

My Blunderbolt has not been connected to the 3G network all day. I live in the Youngstown area. Has anyone else been having this issue? I thought it was me and that I had caused a problem by flashing a new rom to it, but it sounds as though others are having issues too.
Let me know and if there's any fix that I can do myself, let me know that too.
Same here north of u in Ashtabula... No 3g. My daughter has an iPhone and she is fine.

I am in east Texas and I noticed problems today as well. I could not get a 3G connection until I did the ##778# trick and turned on rev.A, so possibly there is an issue with eHRPD like what happened right after the TB came out?
I am on BAMF 1.0.9 and have been since it was released, so it's not a ROM issue for me.

Good one! Actually I live in Austintown so .
I'm running the new eternity rom from virus with the most recent radio.
I just did the rev. A trick and now it works again. Yaaaaaay.
Same problem in Akron on an doff Monday evening and in Ravenna Tuesday afternoon. I did pick up a spot of 4g on 76 west just around 14. I typically loose or regain 4g between brimfield and Tallamadge exits. Maybe Verizon is upgrading.

Clearly an issue with authenticating to Verizon 3G eHRPD and 4G LTE network. If you were previously successfully authenticated and the lifetime timer hasn't expired which would otherwises force a reauthentication or you haven't toggled airplane mode then you probably still have data. If you've completely lost data you can at least restore 3G EVDO since it uses a different authentication method that still works by doing ##778#.
It's been 3g, 4g and out completely sense 2pm here in Kettering.
So, it's been more than a month now since I have not been able to get a solid 3G connection in my area where there is no 4G. Last time I asked no one was really able to help, so I thought I try again. If I turn on my data, it usually takes a while for it to connect and once it does, it stays connected for about 30 seconds to a minute. Sometimes it's longer, but it always drops eventually. Sometimes it has the 3G icon, but nothing happens still. It's a beezy to try and send or receive a picture message. The only time I ever use Internet now is if I have Wifi. I sent it into Samsung, got it back more than a week later and all they did was take the update the GS3 received while they had it. It seems as though if I'm in a 4G area, the data works fine, but other than that, it's almost nonexistent. Can anyone help me, please?

I don't know what to say bro. Is it just your area? How does your phone do on other areas? If it works in other areas then it's just bad service in your area? How does someone else's phone act around your house. You should compare it to another phone and see if that one loses data.

I have 6 other people in my family and all of them live either in my house or down the street and we're all on Verizon. Their service is fine. I say it has to do with something with the phone.

Lame man. My issues were terrible until I switched to synergy. I'm on the he modem now but have had luck with lg1 as well. HD was **** on my phone.
Have you tried any modem swaps? Comparing service on hour Samsung to say a Motorola or an iPhone will make you pull your hair out. I fell into it as well. My wife's iPhone wouldnt drop 3g and my old Motorola got great service in the same spot my s3 would drop signal/go to 1x.
Things really got ****ed up when I went to an area with 4g. Watching my phone, with 4 bars of 4g drop to 3g then to 1x, to no service at all for a few minutes then repeat the process over and over again made me RAGE!

Well, my issue isn't like that when I'm in a 4G area. That's why it doesn't make any sense. The service here is fine, my phone just doesn't like it. I've tried every modem out there so far, and none have helped.
