Losing signal for no reason - Samsung Infuse 4G

Hi Forum!
I don't post very much, but lately I have been faced with a very annoying problem. I am currently running my Infuse with MIUI (thanks MikeyMike!) and everything has been great... EXCEPT that in places where I know there is signal, it shows 0 bars. My signal icon will show 3G or H+, but there will be 0 bars, and I wont be able to send messages or use data. My current solution is to restart the phone, but does anyone have any suggestions on fixing this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Aside from trying to reflash to see if that fixes anything, you could try toggling airplane when you lose the signal? Obviously that isn't going to be a "fix" for your problem, but it may be more convenient than turning the whole phone on and off everytime

[Q] LTE won't connect to Google services, but WiFi will

Today I realized that my LTE signal was orange in quick settings on cm11. Also, Google apps weren't working, play, hangouts, and even Instagram! However, if I connect to my WiFi the signal goes white and all apps work against. This problem usually happens on WiFi and a router reboot fixes it, but this time LTE is giving the problems. I am really stumped here. The problem came out of nowhere and I tried reinserting the Sim, flashing a new version of cm, and nandroiding an old working backup. This is pretty urgent sinse most apps are basically useless now when I'm not home. Also, 3g connects fine, just LTE doesn't. Once 3g connects to Google and turns white, switching to LTE keeps it white and apps will work. I'm all out of ideas here, someone please help

I'm in the same boat. Except I wasn't on CM11. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2748991

LTE works, just most apps don't load anything, and the signal shows orange in quick settings. You don't seem to have the same problem as me, right?

You're correct, my bad. I can get 3G no problem but cannot even get 4G to show up.

Problem with cellular data connection (Connection freezes, bad reception)

Hello there,
I'm having a bit of a issue with my 3G connection; I'm getting a lot of different issues while using it inside of my house. The main problems I'm having are the following:
My connection keeps freezing; even with 3-4 bars in 3G coverage. It also happens randomly, it can work a while then stop working and then continue to do so. Sometimes I'm even barely able to use the 3G connection. Putting the phone in airplane mode, and then back "usually" solves it, but sometimes it happens every fifth minute so it's really annoying.
The phone keeps changing cell towers to other towers with poor 3G coverage (which pretty much kills my connection), even when it's connected to a 3G network with 3-4 bars it changes after a while to a network with 0-1 bars in coverage.
Sometimes while loading pages or when trying to download files they get corrupt due to the connection; I've got no idea why this is happening.
I've been in touch with my telecom provider before and they've told me that there's no issues with their celltowers in the area; they've even been there to check it and I'm the only one in the area who've reported the issue. I've tried to put the simcard in another phone, but still no luck.
Is there any way to resolve these issues? I've been thinking if there's any way to force the phone to stay on the same celltower, but I've not found anything regarding it as of now. Any ideas?
Bump. Anyone?

[Q] Intermittent Internet on HSPA/LTE - Connection Drop

Hi, I have a very particular issue with my Oneplus One which it seems to me software related and I hope someone can help me here. I've tried to find an answer here in the XDA and in the Oneplus One forum but no one seems to have the same issua as mine. I've also tried to flash different modems, and doesn't fix it. Tried to play with the *#*#4636#*#* menu and didn't have luck as well.
Before I start I'm on Three network in UK. My phone is rooted but no Xposed installed. CM11S latest version installed.
Things I tried to solve the issue:
I've already tried to flash different modems or play with the *#*#4636#*#* menu but I have no luck. Tried factory reset, complete wipe on recovery and restore of the CM11S. Nothing helped.
What it happens is that sometimes, using HSPA or LTE I'm not able to use the internet. It doesn't seem to be a signal issue because I have full bars and I can even see the arrows up and down in the status bar inside the signal meter. I'm not able to use browser, listen to Spotify or anything internet related. Calls are ok. It usually an issue when I'm on HSPA+ but sometimes in LTE as well.
A reboot usually does the trick and makes it work, but sometimes not and it takes a while to come back and connect. That's really annoying.
Just another piece of info, it usually happens when I disconnect from Wifi and connect to the phone network or when I don't have signal (I'm in the tube for example) and come to an area where I have signal.
I hope someone here might be able to help. The only thing I haven't tried yet is to change to other carrier. But that would be last option as I appreciate the All-you-can-eat data allowance from Three.
Thank you in advance.

Have you checked if you had the right APN ?
Yes, Apr settings are right. Just to be clear. I can connect to HSPA and LTE. What happens is that the connection drops and just fix if I reboot.

Same problem here. Have you found a solution? Or is it a hardware problem?
Hey sorry for bumping an old post but I'm having the same problem. In the UK on non-EE T-mobile. I get enough signal and H seems to connect, but I can't access the Internet. The upload arrow shows but the download arrow rarely appears.
I've tried flashing different roms, modems, recoveries to flash them, all to no avail
I have the same problem, but I don't have to restart, putting the phone in airplane mode and releasing after 2 seconds does the trick. still very annoying. no one has any idea of how to solve it?
My ROM is CM11 44S

Having lots of issues with cell connectivity

So recently I've been having a lot of issues with my cell reception. Randomly during the day I would completely lose my reception. However the icon in the status bar will show I got a full connection. Mobile data works. But I will be unable to receive / make calls or text messages. A reboot will fix this. I've had this issue ever since an ota update from sultanrom. I've since tried flashing the stock ROM back but it happens on there as well. I'm currently on the latest sultan mm version. But this used to happen on his lollipop version as well It mostly seems to happen when charging my phone. I've tried different firmwares and modems but the issue is still there. This is a big problem because I've gone for 10+ hours several times without any cell reception thinking all was fine because the status bar shows a full connection. Has anyone else had this issue? I really need to get this sorted as it makes my phone unable to do the most basic things a phone should be doing.
