Data connection locks up randomly? - HTC Desire S

Anyone else have this problem? I'm using the stock rom with three uk unrooted.
Every day at least three times my phones data connection locks up and I have to go into plane mode then back to fix it.
Is there a fix for this? It's driving me crazy now.

Have you checked your APN settings? If you are not sure what they are, ring 3 and ask them to resend them to your phone.

Yeah they are exactly as they should be. The connection is fine for about 20 minutes then dies again. The h symbol is still there but the up and down arrows stop and texts won't send and xda pages don't load. It's very annoying

Network connection problems?

Hi all,
A few days ago I noticed my data connection lags and it takes a while until tha up and down arrow start blinking under the H indicator.
Sometimes it is fine.
Also several times I noticed in an are with 4 bars my connection would drop completely, shie no bars and show a little x instead and then a minute or two later it would come back. Tried factory reset, did not help...
Does anybody know what is going on?
I have done the true perma root and unlock as posted in the development sticky.
I also removed some bloatware which do not come back when I do a factory restore. Not sure if that matters though or of it is related.

Are you running the stock rom? I'm guessing so. If you went through and deleted a bunch of stuff you very easily could have deleted something you didn't want to.
I would suggest grabbing the stock nandroid restore from the thread in the development section and going back to a clean install. See if that helps.

im not rooted and i have the same issues. Going from full bars to nothing and then it lights back up. I assume it has something to do with the tower its connected to
Sometimes I only get phone call reception and no data,I call T-Mobile and they say I'm not in a 4g area,but for the past months I've been here and get the 4g full signal..this only happens like twice a month.its a big problem with their towers.

I'm sure it's a radio issue. Happens to mine and my roommates MT4Gs. And since we don't have another radio, we're kind of SOL there.
I've had my mt4g since they dropped, and it's only started doing this to me recently... when it happens, I go to the APN's and reset to default... it seeeeeeeeems to work (for a short time), but then it goes right back to sucking...
You can also just toggle airplane mode. Will bring speeds back up for a short time.

Lockscreen Issue [Nothing to do with the ring]

Its happened to me twice now, the lockscreen froze half way up the screen with the bottom half black(Weather lockscreen) and it still works when you swipe up from the bottom half, but the only way to fix it is to reboot. Has anyone else had this problem, and if so sorry if its already been posted.

An HTC Champion recognized this as a bug and told me it will be fixed in our first update (for the T-Mobile Sensation 4G)
so what lockscreen is everyone using when this happens? Weather, picture album, etc...Also, are you using the sense launcher or something else? I've had my phone for almost 2 weeks now and I am praying that this doesn't happen to me
It happened to me once also. Weather lockscreen.
I dont have that problem only sometimes when i unlocked my screen it wasn't good response but fixed it after some screen switches

This has happened to me more than once and I almost never have my phone in Landscape mode... Maybe it has to do with the G sensor detecting it being horizontal though?
It's happened to me only once. I use the weather lock screen. I had to reboot to fix it.

I've had this happen twice about 2 weeks ago but hasn't happened again.

This has happened to my phone about 3-4 times. The only way I can fix it is to take my sensation out of it's body glove protector (kind of a pain) and then pull the battery and turn the phone back on. I can't shut down or reboot the screen no matter how long I hold the power button. I love my phone but this is getting on my nerves. It does it at the worst times.

WiFi and data at the same time

I've noticed that in the last few days when I turn on WiFi I still get cell data.
I have WiFi then 4g icon with 2-3 bars. Wasn't like that before.

What were you doing when this occurred? Might you have been in the middle of downloading something so your phone waited instead of doing a handoff?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
I have noticed this same issue. I usually just turn off the data portion when using wifi, but I am curious as to why this occurs

Nothing really just chillingin the forums or browsing. The phone used to automatically turn off cell data when on WiFi and I might of disabled something somewhere but I've never seen such a option...

Can't regain signal without restarting

Completely stock phone... I never messed with it from day 1.
So here's the thing... everytime I take a subway and after the get out from underground the phone never regains the 4g data icons... the signals are there but it doesnt let me browse the web or use any apps that require a data signal.
Restarting the phone solves the problem...
But at work everytime I go to the basement and come out.. I completely lose the signal and do not automatically regain it once I'm out on the street... this made me miss many calls and incoming texts... I also switched my sum card 2 weeks ago for the newest 4g Sims... it helped for about 2 days.. but now same thing happens all over again..
Any tips?

Try toggling flight mode on then back off.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Did that... it rarely works... but either way... its not good when a phone can't regain a signal... because its in my jeans the whole time... and I get a lot of missed calls due to that... its horrible.
Does anyone else experience this problem with their galaxy s?

If its completely stock I would call in the warranty.

If you've always been using stock, then you should try your hand at flashing GB.
Try out some new modems too. It might solve your problem.

I haven't had it happen to this HTC device but when I had the evo 3d. 4g and 3g would shut off constantly during YouTube and any videos. Also had it with the HTC inspire but never knew why.

Big Time problems! It started a week ago where I lost data and was advised by Rogers techs to "Try" a bunch of things and was told to do a "Factory Data Reset". I hated to but they said it was the thing they knew to try. Did it and got data backi for a few days and now I have NO Service and can't connect at all. They are sending new phone and will be here hopefully tomorrow.
It's 4 g lte and never switches and when I look at data it just said connecting and when put in and out of airplane mode it said connected and then works

I guess I'll wait till the ota update and if that doesn't fix it I'll exchange for another one
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I think i had this problem, lost all data connectivity until i either restarted or toggled airplane mode.
My sim didn't look like it was correctly installed because the tray was protruding a little bit. I removed the sim tray and messed with the card a bit, it looks like it fits better and i haven't had a problem in 2 days.
Battery has also been better since then, hope this helps if we're having the same problem.
I'll try it thanks

It's not just you. My phone did this a few times while I was at school. At first I thought I just lost connection cuz I get crappy reception anyway but after a whilr I noticed it wasn't reconnecting so I restarted and it turned on again. It happened 3 times while at school. 0 at home.
I've only had it for about 24 hours so I'll let you know if it happens again

Happened to me today too. A quick airplane mode fixes it But if it starts happening all the time then ill be pissed.
Sounds like a trend lovely

Check out connection checker in the play store. Makes this issue a little more easy to cope with.

I took mine and got the simcard switched out. The....ahem...nice person at the att store said my phone could be going bad and suggested if this happens again to switch it out. I love the way they train their people.
Lol indeed
