My G2X periodically loses all data connection, and the up arrow on the top gets stuck. It usually comes back after 15-20 seconds, but lately it has been happening more frequently. It happened while I was on stock, so I thought maybe a new rom would fix it. I've tried cm7, and I'm currently running the leaked gingerbread rom, I even went to t mobile and got a brand new sim card, but it's only getting worse. At first it happened once every few hours, but lately it had been happening 3-5 times an hour, and it's getting very annoying. Is this happening to any body else?

Yeah I had the same problem with my o2x running cmx-11. I think its fixed now. What I did was flash modaco fr15 and that seemed to fix it. One of the bugs I guess :/

Used to do that on froyo on my n1. Gingerbread fixed it. In the meantime, switch into airplane mode and then turn it back to normal mode. Used to work for me.

That works for me too, but it's only a temporary fix, and it only shaves off like 5 seconds on the waiting. Then it will happen again within the hour.

Man im not going to lie to you, this problem seems to be a quirk with tmobiles network or maybe gsm data as a whole. I have been having this problem on every single 3g phone ive had on tmobiles network since the g1 (then another g1, then cliq, then n900, then n1, then vibrant, g2, g2x...in certain areas its worse..and the ish can be really annoying.
Yup same here, mt4g, n1, now g2x data gets stuck all the time, customer service is a joke, i probably know more about phones than them, all they have you do is reboot phone, this problem is very very annoying.
G2X
It happens to my G2x also...it's very annoying!

Used to happen alot on my mt3gs. Experienced it a few times on my G2x. Only quick fix I use is task killing which I try not to do. Another way is calling my voice mail and let my network kinda 'find and reset' itself. Worked for me majority of the time lol.

This also been happening to be since I got the g2x I tried everything ... hopefully the gingerbread update will fix everything till then we will see ..
Happens on my vibrant, G1, and just about every single android phone on T-Mobile. I'm curious to know if this happens on other networks also, or if it is an android problem. I have very little tolerance for this kind of bs and if I can confirm this is a tmo problem then I'm bailing.
i get the same stupid problem
Ditto. I cringe to say it but my data connection was way more solid on my Vibrant (and it's replacement) than my g2x (and it's 2nd & 3rd replacements)... I'm praying it's the drivers... I'll be kicking myself if I picked another lemon. >=\
About the other networks...I had an epic 4g. .and it didn't do that

maybe solved?
Hi, I had this problem with my P990 also and adjusted slightly the APN-Settings: I set APN-Type to "default" and APN-Protocol to "IPv4/IPv6". Seems to work now. koem
I am noticing a trend now... Each morning the GPS wont start. I startup maps in the morning, and I get no GPS icon. (AGPS still works) When I turn GPS off, GPS won't turn on again... A reboot is required to fix the problem.
2nd phone now with this issue... starting to wonder if its related to charging all night...
I don't think it is related to charging, randomly my GPS will get stuck, either when I first try to use it, or after it has been in use for a while, the GPS icon just sits there, and it won't lock on, and I have to reboot.
Annoying to reboot when you're driving in an area where you're actually relying on the nav to be working!
I've had this issue too. I really hope they come out with an update soon. Love this phone besides the small nuances.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Weird, I don't have this problem but I do have a problem if I leave my WiFi on all night while it's charging. If I do, in the morning when I take it off the charger, the WiFi icon is gone and my 4G icon just keeps flashing every 5 seconds. It won't stop flashing and my phone will not have data until I reboot. Now I just turn off WiFi before going to bed since it doesn't happen any other time.
The easiest way to fix that is reconnect your wifi then while connected to wifi turn wifi off. Boom.

Did you guys get this GPS issue resolved with the new ROMS? I have the same problem and it doesn't seem to change if I use the stock Froyo or latest CM7.
Reboot and the GPS locks pretty quickly.

My GPS is "better" with the new baseband, but that is a highly relative term. It still takes 5 minutes or more to connect usually. The oddest thing though is when I go into GPS Status, I can see it is locked onto 7 or 8 satellites, but still doesn't have a lock, which is dumb because at least 4 should have a perfect lock. I will NEVER buy another LG phone in my life. Wish I'd have just waited for the Sensation, ugh.

My phone was from Wind Canada which has a baseband from Jun 7, 2011. If I am correct, there is no way I can even try the new T-mobile basedband that came with the GB update. LG updater says my phone is up-to-date, and I have not been able to find on the forums here a flashable file for the new baseband.
We're not sure when the Wind version of the GB update is coming. Hopefully soon, but the phone only launched here about 5 weeks ago.
Any other ideas?
Ok so when I try to tether my phone to the PC(windows vista 32 bit) it will connect but only for like five minutes then it only gets limited connectivity. I've tried to diagnose from the PC but keeps telling me I need to contact my service provider. It will connect but goes back and forth. Would anyone be of assistance. Please and thank you

When i used mobile AP it also gave me limited connectivity for a while so i turned it off and then back on and it worked fine... im not sure what the problem was though
are you using wired tether or wireless
Ok guys I'm using stock tethering with USB. I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting and it will give full connectivity then it will drop to local only then in a few more minutes it will drop to limited connectivity. I just don't get it. It will connect but just losses connection like crazy. I will try a few apps and report back, in the mean time any help or ideas on what to do are welcome.

I've only used Mobile AP and Tether app to do tethering, never had an issue on those. Best of luck.
are you letting your screen turn off, and are you running any battery saver apps that turn off moble web when the screen turns off.?

I dont think it matters if the phone is charging or the screen is off/on. I used to tether with the stock app all the time no problem while charging and screen off for a long time.
I just recently started getting limited connectivity. I only use our stock Mobile AP. I have never used the usb cable to tether. I wonder if it is a result of something we flashed..
If we can figure this out I will be very happy!

I agree. It would seem it is due to some unforeseen issue that I would not no anything about. It seems like when the phone goes to sleep that's when the trouble starts. I haven't been able to test this theory as I haven't had access to a PC for a day or two. Will report back with you guys cause I'm gonna try a few apps and see if keeping the screen constantly on will help if it does then we will know it is something to do with the phone sleeping while tethering. Thank you much for your guys input..

I always turned my screen off and never had an issue before. This is recent issue for me. I'm not running any battery saver apps..I did recently flash a ROM that came with Bali 3.3 uv.
I never uv and actually flashed Bali 3.3 (no uv) this AM. Could the under volting be causing it? The last time I tethered was two days ago so I don't know if I still have the issue with Bali 3.3
Thanks
Ok. I have done some testing and definitely have come up with a fix for us. Is it a temporary or permanent fix? I'm not sure just yet. This is what I did.
Turned on my Acer laptop/let it boot up.
Turned on our stock Mobile AP as a wireless tether. I got limited access.
I right clicked on the signal status bars icon.
I got a popup with 3 choices one of which was STATUS.
I clicked on STATUS and the limited connectivity icon (triangle with ! In it) almost immediately disappeared before my status window popped up.
I HAD FULL CONNECTIVITY.
I browsed a little.
I shutdown/started up my pc 3 times and had full connectivity each time.
I then, for40 mins, downloaded ROMS, Kernels, Mods ect from xda and rootzwiki using wireless Mobile AP with no issue our loss of connection. I worked it good!
I am now shutdown and waiting for an hour to pass (another 30min) to test if I will have full connectivity immediately on connection.
I'll check back in soon. Hopefully I'm on the right track!
**Also**
My phones screen was off the entire time.

No. Audiophile Funk in the trunk as of yesterday but I was getting it on Black Ice too. Just started happening 10-14 days ago
@GDofWR420
Ok. I started pc/let it boot up and run. I then turn on Mobile AP (wireless).
It showed connected but there were no bars and the blue wheel was spinning..still early in its connecting process I'm sure.
I got the limited connectivity icon on the signal status bars and it said Limited connectivity in the popup.
I right clicked the signal status bars and immediately got Full connectivity. I didnt even get The 3 option popup with the STATUS option.
I'm still fully connected as I write this. My phones screen off the entire time.
I'm going to shut down pc and reboot phone and see what happens...I'm sure it is something we flashed and when the devices "talk back and forth" something happens.
Forgive my noob speculations and non technical replies. I'm REALLY NOOB with pc's lol.
If all we will have to do is right click the signal status bars here and there that wont be to bad.
I'm going to Odin stock (probably not tonight) and see how that works for us also...
BTW; I have been using your CWM advance restore guide and I'm loving it! Wish you did it months ago! What a time saver! Thank you for that.
i'm having weird issues with wifi on my infuse...
with all the other roms i've tried so far the wifi signal has stayed pretty solid, but with the compiled CM7 rom wifi stops working if the phone sits idle for any random amount of time. sometimes it works after the phone sits for 30 minutes +, sometimes it dies if i just lock and unlock the screen..
any tips? what information can i provide to help?
bumping up
having the same issues, anyone got some info?
Go to wireless settings, then wifi settings, hit menu, advanced, then change sleep policy to never. For some reason cm7 doesn't default to this. Should help

My problems are somewhat similar on the newest CM7. Mine is stuck on "obtaining IP address, then my WIFI says "disconnected" then it reconnects and still says "obtaining IP address". Please help anyone...!
Just to add too, I have reflashed the rom 2 times same problem each time.

Could be router problems. Stock kernel?
Yeah I always use stock kernel
The only thing I can think of is it being a router problem. Do you have another device around? Use that device and connect to your wifi and see if you can reproduce your WiFi disconnects, if it disconnects then its your router.
If you cannot, go to a friend or familys house or public wifi and see if you can reproduce your WiFi disconnect problem.

One more to back your clame up it drops my WiFi and my nexus 5 is still connected. CM need to get to work. This phone has been out for a while and things like this should have been fixed by now.
Still love it but glad I still have my nexus. Not being a fan boy just being truthful.
Yeah i have the same issue, my phones wifi goes orange every time it goes into deep sleep. It's really annoying
Do you guys happen to be using Snapdragon Battery Guru? Or any battery saving applications?
It's the phone. Not the router.
Does it happen on your other devices? No? Then it's the phone.
Someone else was having the same problem and had BatteryGuru installed which was turning WiFi off when the phone screen is off to "conserve battery."
Check your user apps guys.

Well I was asking that because they can be using those apps which are conflicting with wifi being disconnected when screen is on. I personally am not a fan of battery conservation apps, they don't do much in my opinion. Handling wakelocks and allowing ur phone to deep sleep is more important.

It doesn't even happen to me when its in deep sleep...its when I'm actively using the phone. My WiFi will drop and my network will disappear from the wifi list in settings, then 10-15 seconds later it reconnects.

That exactly what mine does. Sometimes I have to reboot to get it to recognize my network. It's annoying to say the least. I may try another ROM to see if it's any better

Using another rom will not resolve the problem, the wifi driver is within the kernel not rom. Try using other kernels instead.
