I dont know if this a problem im having with the phone or is this how it is, some times when my phone is not being used and i pick it up after a few mins, it takes about 30 to 40 seconds to pick u data connection again, the bars stay white than turn green.
Can any one confirm if its just me or is it a bug or is it just built this way.
Thank you.

I wouldn't say its a bug or anything. I had the same problem on my vibrant. Usually a network or tower issue within your area. Otherwise if you have a case on, that may be the culprit.

It also does that with the wifi on. But if its just how it is than i guess i dont have to exchange devices, cuz i dont like doing that buy if i have to i dont mind.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
The 3g and wifi icons only turn green when the phone is connected to the internet "&" google services, if the icons are white you are connected to the internet but not google services, this is by design.
Thank you so much. Now i dont have to worry about about an exchange at all.

I only have one widget disappearing...springpad
I was having random issues with widgets and freezes before root. In my opinion I think touchwiz is just clunky.
Never had the issue with my Captivate.. im thinking about returning it and waiting for the AT&T Nexus S.. I can't believe Sammy would release a phone with this many bugs!

My vote is That the file system is rfs and that is the culprit. However rumor has it that supercurio is working on a lag fix. I. Have no proof of this. Just an uneducated guess

As usual check to make sure what storage the app is installed on. I am having some issue with my Audiogalaxy widget personally. I never told it to do so, but it installed the app on my internal "memory card" as opposed to on the phone. Move it if you have to.
Try restart after that, and if it still isn't working, try removing and reinstalling.
(I'm beginning to suspect some widgets I am used to may be gingerbread only)
Yeah gtasks is deleting itself and also my videos and mp3s randomly stop working.

well he tweeted it. he didnt say in progress, he simply said he was looking through the infuse source code... and then said the infuse would get the voodoo treatment. first sound, then lagfix. dont expect it this week or next. or even next month. it might come that fast but it might not. he got a sgs2 and may be sidetracked with that, also he is heavily involved with new stuff for voodoo sound, maybe we will get squeezed in to this next voodoo sound release, maybe the one after.
is anyone who is having trouble using apps to sd? that is known to cause disapearing widgets. the sgs's have ample storage for apps. i dont know why people insist on moving them to the sd. maybe they have a fast sd card but the phone doesnt need much. embedded os is kinda designed to do minimal i/o.
I had the same issues with widgets deleting. I had to uninstall and reinstall from market to get the going again.
I should have said this first, my issues only started after rooting. But then again I only had the phone for about 10 mins before rooting it.
got rid of it already though as I have an sgs2 on the way.

odd. I have had zero problems with the phone. no reboots. no widget problems.
i have added/deleted many... including evernote.
no problems.
rooted.
No issues with force closing, but I have had quite a bit of disappearing Widgets. Grooveshark and audible from the same panel in go launcher. I haven't done root or anything.
Can I admit that my love of this phone maybe more than just a man's love for a device.

I had the same problem of Widgets Disappearing, mainly after reboots.
In my case, the culprit was that the applications were automatically installed in the Internal SD (16gb one) of the phone instead of its flash memory... The end result was that when the phone booted up, looked for the widgets /before/ it had finished mounting and scanning the Internal & External SDs, causing the OS to simply removing the Widgets since it could no longer find them.
Try checking on Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> <Problematic App / Widget> (And if available) -> Move to Phone
Reboot and they should stop disappearing.
This totally works. Using go launcher and unrooted Infuse 4G. Both Grooveshark and audible widgets now stay active in the widgets menu.

Hi I'm new here so i apologize if I have posted this in the wrong spot or if there is already a post about this (i checked and couldnt find one) Anyways, i'm having an issue with my SGS4G that drives me INSANE. It happens often. I will be texting or browsing the internet or something and the green arrow pointing up on the 4G symbol freezes. Once that happens im not able to do anything: send texts, load anything, use internet (pretty much anything consisting of data). I actually experienced the problem trying to load up XDA. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys. Thanks.

This is exactly the right forum for this sort of question--just fyi. I've never had that happen though hopefully someone here can help you out. My guess is something running or updating in the background.

Oh thanks i just make sure cuz ive been on forums where people FLIP if u accidently post in the wrong spot. But yeah i hope someone knows why or at least how to stop it. Only way to fix it id to restart my mobile network.

i encounter that problem a number of times on the 4g connection. using edge never experiences the problem and i can also remedy if i switch networks.
Are you using Mobile AP by any chance when it happens? I've had my data freeze completely after a good amount of use via Mobile AP. Other than that I haven't noticed any issues.

G2x
Modded gingerbread theme
Whitehawks kd1 deodexed with modded green dialer,modded pull down menu (favorite color is green and favorite football team greenbay packers)
Read up on the g2x lately. It is having lots of issues for lots of people. Tmo even pulled it off their website due to problems with alot of those phones. Random reboots, screen issues like light bleeds and discoloring, and other issues. Some are happy with the device with few of these issues others have had multiple exchanges and still report problems.
They say the gingerbread update will fix some of these when it comes out. I doubt it will fix the screen issues tho. That just sounds like an LG hardware defect. Bottom line do some reading before jumping on the LG g2x bandwagon.

For the past couple days, my phone has been sporadically connecting to Google (white/green signal bars). Seems fine when I'm on wifi, but when using Sprint, the problem seems to be coming up fairly often. I checked all setting, all looks good. Is this a Google/Sprint issue or something with my phone?
Thanks!
Me too man... Sometimes when I try too load the browser it just shows white bars and the 3g icon Is white too.

had this same issue, and now i'm not even getting 3g. cant even update my profile or prl now.
i have the same problem. it seems to happen almost ever 10 minutes. if i'm sending a text or in an app that requires internet, i'll get errors like "not sent" "disconnected" or "no active internet connections" and that's even when I'm ON wi-fi. i don't understand it. i figured if it was a sprint issue, i would get the "x" over the signal bars and not a color change. i assumed it was a radio problem? but i don't know enough about this stuff. lol
That's weird. I have the white bars and 3g icon and I can still get on emails market mms and on xda as I'm typing this now.

You still have data with the white bars. The green bars just indicate you are actively connected with Google services like gmail, talk, etc.

if your not getting the green connectivity to google, check how much internal app storage space you have left. not the sd storage. ive noticed that every time that i go below 100mb app storage, i lose connectivity to googles servers. and i dont get it back, turn green, until i either uninstall a few apps or move them to the sd storage.

I can't check this right now, since at work I get no data anyway, but I already installed Fast for FB as an alternate, and ready to test this out. If it works that would be great, the data dropping in killing me.
I did the same thing. I noticed my data crashed repeatedly while in the Facebook app. Uninstalled, created a homescreen shortcut to the website. Works beautifully.
Just did it, and it seems to be much better, thanks. Installed Fast for FB as my FB app.
I don't even have FB installed and had data drops.

The Facebook App, or the Facebook website through the browser? In my case, I've had an issue with both. I have since given up on the Facebook app all together and just use a bookmark to the Facebook page. Anytime I would get the browser blank-white page, I would force-close the browser app and log back in. Typically would do the trick.
