At&t Fuze Losing Data Connection

Well I just got my At&t Fuze like 3-4 days ago. For some reason it randomly loses connection to the network, so I can make call or use the internet. I'll have to go back to setting- communication to turn off my phone turn it back on then turn on the data connection. I'm really tiring of it happening over and over again. Does anyone else have this problem? And are there any ways to fix it? Thanks

No one has any idea??

Are you still running the stock ROM? If so, GET RID OF IT!!!!
In all seriousness: Have you installed any applications? Have you modified TouchFLO 3D? You can always try a hard reset and see if the problem persists.

It's possibly a problem with AT&T's network. I've noticed that my 3G speeds are incredibly slow lately and others on hofo have had this issue as well. I would advise you to wait it out.

forp me it says i get 3g,edge, or G and i will cant connect sometimes.

I also have this issue. Sometimes it happens after a soft reset or for no reason at all. It is easy to fix as i just turn data back on but I don't know why it is happening.

I actually tried a hard reset reset and it didn't work so then I brought it back to At&t and the guy there fixed it for me. He said it was because the data connection was off so then I thought maybe I accidentally turned it off, but the problem persist after.
Yes, I am still running under stock rom, I installed google map, beejive, and some other that I don't think will cause this problem. I am afraid to flash because I already have a lot of contact info set in and data and would have to re-do everything.
I was hoping maybe someone would have a solution for this. I don't think running on stock rom would cause this.....
Any help would be great. Thanks

I just flash it to NATF's rom and it's working really well right now. I hope the problem will not appear again. Again thanks for the rom NATF

I now get it often that there is a problem with the GPRS in your area. Also there are times that the phone is not even connected. It is getting to be a pain but will try calling AT&T and find out

Even after installing a new rom the problem still continue. I tried going into an At&t store and ask, but they have no clue. I don't have time to call 611 right now, but will update with what they say when I do. It starts to get really annoying....

It's probably a network issue.
Regarding flashing, I suggest you back up your contacts with outlook. Even if the problem has nothing to do with software, you're missing out quite a bit in terms of speed. Besides, you should back up your contacts regardless. Don't trust windows mobile too much

OK, sounds like I'm not the only one experiencing this problem. I think the only thing that's different for me is that when I lose the data connection, I also lose voice. The first time it happened, it said my SIM was unprovisioned. When I called customer service, they didn't know beyond checking for network outages in my area.

Fuze_tactic & Tribalmunky
I thing both of your problems -- intermittently dropping the data connection for Fuze_tactic, and intermittently dropping the voice and data connection for Tribalmunky -- could be caused by the Long Press End button setting. Go to Start/Settings/System/LongPressEndKey to see what I'm talking about. There is one setting for Airplane mode, which would kill voice and data, and another for killing just the data connection. Try changing the long end key press to Set Vibrate/Ringer and see if that cures your issue(s). If you are occasionally long pressing the end key, your should develop a problem with intermittently losing your ringer.

No, I've checked that. It happened once when it was just charging, no where near my hands or anything that could have pressed it. When it happens I can't make calls or reestablish data connections until I either go in the connections manager or soft reset.

Like tribalmunky said we were no where near the phone when it happens, but I follow your instruction and changed the long pressed key. I'll see if anything occurs. Thanks for the input tho.

Update:
I called At&t and from what tech support told is, their network is having problems, especially for users in Cali. They are in progress of fixing it, but no idea how long it is going to take. I guess the only thing we can do now is wait.

I've been having problems with this too (losing data and phone) and I'm in Seattle. Maybe if I call, AT&T will claim there are problems with the entire west coast.

I did the whole SPL and ROM flashing thing (ROMeOS) and the problem still persists. I chatted online with an AT&T guy and he said it was a known issue but no way to fix it yet.
If you're worried about your contacts, don't be. Use PPCPimBackup (I think I got it either here or at freewarepocketpc.net) and it can copy all of your contacts onto the storage card. It's free and I've used it prior to flashing a new ROM.
However, flashing ROMs do not work. The only fix is simply going to your communications settings, turning off Data, then turning it right back on. This will also be why some of your MMS pictures don't get sent out.
I still love this phone, just get annoyed with it at times. Even the available larger battery with cover only makes my phone last about two days opposed to one.

I am in NJ and have the same problem. It started about the time I loaded some screen lock software that requires a finger swipe to unlock the touch screen (navigation buttons always active) upon coming out of sleep mode. I just decided to live with it, I like the software. I merely click the data connection in settings, connections, data connection (it may indicate off or on, doesn't matter, it is actually off) and then click it on and everything works again. Mostly happens after charging overnight.

I have stock fuze and it keeps happening to me too. But whenever I reset my phone, I can connect to the internet. I don't think it's network related in my case. not sure though.

[Q]Cellular Internet problems

I have a Samsung Focus running official Mango update in India... a few days after running I got a internet plan for my phone[2g] firstly I wasn't able to get it running I asked the question in xda and someone told me to make a new APN by the name "Internet" and keeping settings on Roam and Automatic...
And it started running! but when I started using more of it I noticing some problems..
1) It doesn't always turn on
2) It turns off sometimes by itself
When the net is running it usually runs fine for long times but then I have to turn off net sometime around to save some battery.
Restarting the phone helped sometimes... sometimes it doesn't.. it always shows the "E" icon[when data connection is on] but that doesn't necessarily mean it has access I guess..
Please help

Okay now it works only for a few seconds before going off..

Factory reset your phone.

The guy who tipped me told me to keep it on.
And yeah I'd rather with less to no net then loose all my music collection and apps :/

Okay I've downloaded the app, and the auto net profile changing is on.
When i select active one, I get ATT and IDEA IND .. but when i select IDEA it just shows its working but then when it goes back to previous screen it still has ATT
I've read some articles about it.. it was first wasn't compaitible with the nodo update and didn't change the profile.. can it be that the app hasn't been updated for mango or something ?

One more thing is there to note this app has not been updated for mango.
Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express

It actually worked... On selecting Idea Ind it didnt change.. but on restarting when i checked it was changed to IDEA IND already having much better net now..

[Q] Losing my APN constantly !! ?

Hi-
I have the T-Mobile LG G2x. I have been using and updating my ROM weekly with the latest port of MIUI ( WhiteHawkx's version ) -- currently on 1.12.01 [12.02.2011]. I have a horible time keeping my APN up. I can make calls of course, and I can use data, for a while, but then after 10 - 20 minutes I lose my APN and no more data. I have tried the "Power Button and Vol. Down" trick, but even tho that will fix the data connection, it is only for a short while and I will lose it again. There is NO rhym or reason as to why this is happening.
Am I the only one that is having this serious issue ?? And it is not my data being throttled. When it happens it is gone completely until I somehow force it to restart.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this ?? Are other people having this issue also ?? It happens to me about 30 times a day.
One bit of information: If someone pushes me a packet of data (like a whatApp message or KiK message) my APN will start working again for a little while. But only if they pushed it to me. otherwise data is still not going out. And I do NOT have anything set to sleep.
Thanks for any insight !!
John

(not specific, but I posted a similar issue in this thread)
These are just from the first couple of pages from the General and Q & A forums of topics with people having issues with one or the other:
APNs lost
Data dropping
Losing network connections
etc
Certain roms seem to be slightly better, but people have had issues (like me) with everything from stock, to CM7, to MIUI. This is more than just a coincidence. I think LG must have shipped a batch of POS G2xs. And if you have NEVER had an issue, then count yourself as lucky.

Thank you for the reply..... but my issue seems a bit different. I do not have any trouble with my signal or cell talk dropping. My phone never drops a call. This is only data related. Like going to the Android market or using any app like messenger, whatapps, kik, Skype, ect.... anything that uses data will eventually stop sending, until I reboot. my SIM card is fine.
Any other ideas ?

Ah, sorry I misunderstood. You might want to check out a different kernel then.

im having this issue as well
except i only lose my apns if i shut off than turn back on my phone, im using rg2x

[Q] Can't make / receive calls or messages, but data works(!)

Ok guys, having a pretty weird problem here. Thought I'd try and get some help here.
I was on my HTC Sensation today and I was looking at a few of the settings under the 'secret' *#*#4636#*#* menu on my phone. Out of curiosity, under the 'phone information' bit, I selected 'WDCMA only' (from WDCMA preferred) to test the coverage in my area. And after that, I haven't been able to get a sodding bit of reception in any way. I reset the option, restarted, pulled the battery, removed the SIM, reflashed my rom, flashed other roms, tried reflashing and flashing other firmwares, everything. No joy.
Curiously, even though I can't make or receive calls, or send or receive texts, data still works (not wifi, data) - I mean, lolwut? And WiFi works.
And there's nothing wrong with my network because my SIM works fine in another phone I have, and I've talked to Vodafone (which was a frankly useless call).
Does anybody have any suggestions? I'd really appreciate any input.
Thanks!
Update: Now data doesn't work. Humph.

Already tried that. Turns out my phone has been IMEI locked. Hmm. Which is strange given that it isn't lost or stolen...

I remember this happened to me on my Nexus One.. that i couldn't set it back no matter what i did..
Always do a Nand backup before tempering with those settings. I dunno how i fixed it but possibly i reflashed my Rom. Try that without wipe..

[Q] Need help with connectivity issues. DESPERATE

Hey guys, quick background. I bricked my SGS3 and had to have it replaced. I think I got a refurb phone because from day one I keep having the same issue. First day I got the replacement phone I rooted it and flashed CleanROM 5.0. Everything was peachy until I noticed that I have no 4G or 3G service. In fact, I had no data connectivity at all. My phone can make calls, receive texts no problem, won't connect to internet. If I restart the phone, I have 4G right away. After a few minutes, the 4G icon is on, but the phone won't has no data connection (when I say data connection I mean it will not go online, no internet, no android market, still have voice and txts). If I attempt to go on internet, I get a message saying "No Signal Found For Mobile Networks". I have installed Network Signal Info and right after a restart it says 4G LTE, data connected, upload+download activity. After a few minutes, it says 4G LTE, data connected, after a little while, it will switch to EHRPD, with data "connecting". Also, in the System tab, it will tell me my IEMI and version of JB running, next to "Radio", it says "unknow". WiFi works perfectly btw. My IEMI is perfectly fine,
I had it backed up. My phone number is still there.
Here is what I had tried so far: Switching into and out of Airplane mode, different programs that reset mobile connection, flashed different custom ROMs, flashed the stock kernel, flashed 3 or 4 verizon Modems, Data wipe, cache, Dalvik wipe, Odin'ed back to stock 4.0.1 ICS and had upgraded it to 4.1.1 via verizon software update, changed the SIM card, and reprovisioned the phone with that *3767*whatever the hell code. I'm out ideas.
If anyone has any other idea that I can try before I take it back to Verizon, please, let me know.

Did you go into your mobile data settings to make sure you're on CDMA/LTE? If not I would select and reboot the phone and see if the problem persists. I don't know if you have tried this but it's worth a shot.

I'm having literally the same exact problem with my mom's S3 except for it's not rooted, complete with 'download + upload activity' and 'unknown' radio. I've yet to find anything in my search, but if I do I'll post it here.
