My girl just got the sky rocket which we both love but she's getting pissed and thinking about returning it.. It's stock and rooted, and on att. It works fine at home on wifi, but as soon as we leave the house her call outs don't go through her calls in aren't coming in. Her data rarely works. It has like two or three bars at the time also.. Has anybody else experienced this? Maybe sim problems or should I flash custom rom?

Today my phone has been switching from no signal to signal
and now it refuses to get any signal
i have tried changing the radio
reflashed stock rom
then reflashed a modded rom
and each one has the same result ...
any other ideas what could be wrong?
i get signal if i put the sim in another phone
so its definately phone related
make sure the radio matches the rilphone.dll?
yep
same .dll from the radio package
have a feeling its some internal problem
cuz the sim is fine otherwise
grr
What about Edge?
I had a LOT of frustrations with mine a couple of weeks ago, then, just to play a hunch, I disabled 3G, and went back to edge and it worked perfectly. Sent an email to the deathstar, and they sent back saying they were having 3G problems. Reading over on boygeniusreport.com, a LOT of people are having trouble with 3G. At&t doesn't have the bandwith to support all the apple iPhone fanboys I guess.
Probably not what's causing your issue, but might be worth a try...save you from pulling your hair out.

If this doesn't help, disabling 3G, you may have to do a warranty exchange.
left battery out all night (last night)
then i reconneced it this morning
and everything seems to working fine
must have been some internal static
thanks dudes
Hello people! I am a newbie on Android, so don't expect me to know deep stuff about Android.
So, I've been using HTC Sensation for about a month now. I've been using it without problem, but suddenly on one night, hard rain strike Bangkok. Suddenly, my phone goes no signal and limited service. I thought it was some some problem, so I wait for a while in order to get the signal back. About 20 mins later, my signal bar is back, but still no Mobile Connection icon (e.g. H or 3G). The worse thing is even though my signal bar is back, I still can't make/receive any calls or sms to/from anyone. I thought it might be some problems with the towers, however, when I switch my SIM to my mom's iPhone, the signal appear to work and the connection worked without problem.
That's when I thought its the problem with the phone. But... when I went out of my area (house), signal appear to work with 3G and I can perfectly make calls or texts without problem. When I got home, No Signal once again. So now I don't really know if its the problem with the network or the phone...
This really annoys me as heck. If someone can give me advices, I will be much appreciate. Thank you very much
My phone goes from having full bars on 4g to nothing randomly me having to pop out the battery to get service again.
Tired of the same

i decided to make the jump and my issues went away, i would have preferred to remain stock however i don't like to be branded, stuck with bloatware etc..
thank you and all of you reply this thread. I am very new to Android, so I'm not really sure about 'rooting'. So Lostcat, you have this issue? and your issue went away after you've rooted your phone? Also, if I am going to root my phone, will all my data, contact, apps, and setting gone? If yes, anyway to do easy back up?
Thanks
I was having similar issues so I sent mine off for repair (through carphone - they say they send htc phones off to the manufacturer but considering its only been a week and they have reapired it i doubt that it has been sent off) still im sort of glad it didn't go off http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/watchdog/2011/10/htc_phones.html - im going to get it this afternoon. will report back with findings

You have answered your question yourself here.
It's clearly a problem with your local cell since that night with the hard rain, since when you go to a different area your phone works fine. Contact your network and report theres a problem with your local cell.
cheers
Are you sure? Why does he have a signal in his mum's iCrap?

Yeah, at first I thought its the signal problem too. But when I switched SIM and put it in my mom's iPhone, it work. And I use her SIM on my phone, and it worked too! Pretty confusing eh?
Alright.... I've decided to give my phone to the HTC support to fix it after I've asked a lot of people and they said its the antennas problem. Anyway, since I phone is rooted, in order to give to support, I need to unroot it.
I know people posted a lot of steps on unrooting HTC Sensation, but I want ONE SPECIFIC SAFE and SURE steps for unrooting... Thank you
So...
I am running my phone rooted, but mostly stock (just some removals) with ROM 1.53.401.2 and he 0.15.3150S.19_10.31501S.06L baseband.
Its been perfoming fine ever since so I never bothered to upgrade to a custom ROM or the newer basebands.
Its an EU unbranded phone. As of tonight, with nothing special done to it it seems to have lost all cell reception. All I get is An x where the 5 bars are. Funnily, when I turn of my WiFi router and select wireless internet, I can get online and download data through the cellular inetnet connection. But not a single call or SMS will go out.
I have moved to like every location in my apartmant and outside and nowhere I can even get a single bar of reception or even a call through.
Does anyone have any idea WTH this could be, what could have caused it? Any ideas on where to prod and poke for a solution?
Mine did that for the first day after I put a non-stock ROM on it...hasn't done it since. I took the piece that covers the SIM card off and popped it back on. I don't know what causes it though.

Hello,
I'm at a point where I don't know what else to do. My signal is dropping and or changing from H to H+ to 3G to no connection constantly. I'm supposed to be on LTE. Everything had been working fine until this morning.
Here is what I've done to try and fix the problem:
- re-flashed ROM (Liquid Smooth, Paranoid Android, etc) Same results. And when I say I re-flashed I mean I started from scratch, cleared everything, etc.
- flashed different modems (3)
- went back to stock
- went to AT&T and tried a new SIM card
- pulled battery, pulled SIM, etc
Everything leads back to the same performance which is that my signal is not stable. I'm in NYC so I know my signal should be stable. It has been every day until today. And of course I did speak with ATT when I was there today and they said that there are no issues. I know they're right because every phone in there was getting LTE.
So now I'm thinking it's a physical problem with the phone?
Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.

Hey tony i know the isues you having but one thing you have to understand is that Network carriers Label the 4G logos"4g" although you maybe in a Hspa/Hspa+ location(which is more of a 3g+) lol
as for the data connection drop this has been an issue with JB for awhile where the apns wont stick either on boot or time out etc.....
best bet to know if its your phone or not is to revert to stock and test it if stock keeps the data connection then you know the phone is fine if it doesnt then its just apart of JB issues more then half of JB runners run into this issue.
He did go back to stock...
If the issue is still happening on stock, I'd say have AT&T replace the phone.

Thanks for the replies.
Yes, at this point I've done everything I could think of with regard to trying different scenarios. I'm definitely leaning towards the fact that perhaps the phone itself is on the fritz. Unfortunately the phone is out of warranty so I can't just have it replaced. I'm not due for an upgrade until June. And I don't have insurance on the phone. That sort of limits my options. AT&T did credit me $100 for my troubles, which is better than nothing. For an early upgrade I'd have to pay like $250, I believe (minus the $100 credit) in addition to renewing my contract with AT&T. Just thought I'd give you guys the breakdown.
Also, I want to reiterate the fact that I am in midtown Manhattan (NYC) where the signal is always full bars of LTE service. It's been consistent for months. This started yesterday (the signal drops) and has been inconsistent ever since. Obviously I've polled other AT&T users around me and they are not having any connection issues. And yes, I'v e gone back to stock more than once. The signal definitely comes and goes constantly. It's not just what the meter says on top of the screen. I use an application to see what mobile network I'm connected to and I'm getting the same inconsistencies looking there as I do when I look up at the signal meter in the status bar.
I had this happen too. Turned out my phone was broke.
I've got best buy's warranty and they replaced the phone. Sorry I'm not more help, but the fact that the phone just doesn't get a signal is a possibility. And I just wanted to let you know, you're not alone

I'm on a aosp marshmallow build, and since cm 12.1 upgrade whichever rom, I tried I couldn't maintain a signal level to make calls or get calls while the phone is idle while it's on lte, or 3g. Lte works fine for data. When I'm on 2g all the calling features working fine. I already tried installing different modems and firmwares including but not limited to 44s, cm nightlies, oxygen os. I went back all stock and rerooted and reupgraded to lollipop back then. No solution again. Any idea would help. I searched couple forums, saw other people with similar problems. But not a proper solution. Thanks

Got the same problem, except that 3G works fine for me.
I tried all that stuff too, still waiting for a solution. I hope it's not a hardware issue as it's working fine for everyone else.
So the problem is that I couldn't make or receive calls on LTE. Data works fine. The thing is the call connects, after 2 rings, I get a message which reads "Mobile Network not available." The other person thinks that I made a missed call and want them to call back. The same happens while receiving calls, after 2 rings, it disconnects it. I've noticed that the signal drop automatically after 2 rings. 100% to 0% after 2 rings, and then back to 100% after the call disconnects. This is kinda weird. I called up my service provider and they told me that it's the handset that's faulty. I think that I need to get to OnePlus Customer Care before my warranty is void.
~noob (you gotta start from somewhere)
Yep. Same here. But if you keep it on 2G, then you can make/receive calls. But that means, practically giving up your data
