[Q] Why doesnt my lumia identify data connection? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I use LUMIA 710 with network operator AIRTEL.
I keep the data connection ON 24/7. I use it now and then. Data transfers smoothly and signal strength is also superb. But sometimes when i open apps which need data connection they say connection not available even though the connection is ON and signals are abundant. I don't know why this happens but this is happening often these days. I tried restarting, switching the DATA connection ON-OFF but no result. Help me out!

Phone loses cellular connection regularly and doesn't find operator

My Polaris regularly loses the connection to my cellular operator (Vodafone in the Netherlands).
It happens more than once a day and even in areas with good reception.
The display then shows "No Service" where normally the operator name is shown and the icon for signal strength shows an antenna with a cross.
This in itself wouldn't be such a problem, if the phone tries to find the operator after the connection is lost. But it doesn't. Once it is lost, it stays lost.
I have to disable the phone in the communication manager and enable it againt to force the Polaris to search for the operator network.
My previous phone (a Nokia) didn't experience this problem and was used with the same SIM.
Does anyone else experience this problem?
And more important: is there some kind of setting (registry key?) to force my phone to search for my operator?
I too have the same problem. This happens for EDGE connection also on my mobile. When ever i connect and disconnected the device to my laptop, the connection to my EDGE connection is disconnected. Even if i open a new internet address, it will say cannot connect to server. I need to soft reset the device to connect to internet. I am having T-mobile USA connection. Please help. It disturbs a lot.

Simultaneous voice and data

Can anyone tell me how to do the simultaneous voice and data? I remember my Hermer used to let me do that. Any solution?
Don't know - it just does! However only a 3G network will support this, so make sure that you have the H or 3G symbol at the top. If you are on 2G, the data connection will terminate whilst on a call.
I think that some phones had two radios..one for voice and one for data..I'm guessing the TP doesn't have this
is there some way how to set the HTC PRO to the situation that the phone has priority from the EDGE?? something like that, when i am in data connection and there was call comming, that the data connection will close and i can take the call??
Now i am unreachable when data conncection
A 2G network is NOT capable of both telephony and data at the same time - it has nothing to do with the phone. As to what takes priority - i am not sure, but if you have an active data connection, i guess the network sees this as the phone being "engaged". THis is a limitation of the network and not the phone. I use my phone in 2G mode with the data connection always open - to allow email push. When i get a phonecall, the data is dropped by the network to enable the call. You need to ask your network provider.
3G can carry both data and telephony at the same time and doesnt need 2 radios. The touch pro supports this.

Is there a way to alter WP7 Data Connection Preferences?

I have a WP7 phone and I have access to wifi except while I'm on the road. The phone automatically connects to the wifi. I have noticed that the data usage is ALWAYS going through my T-mobile account rather than wifi. How can I make sure that the phone uses wifi whenever available, and T-mobile when there's no wifi connection?

It DOES switches to WiFi when available and automatically switches to data Connection when WiFi isn't available. I confirmed it few days ago by installing Counters app for my Lumia 710. It tells you your mobile data usage. It stopped when I connected to my home WiFi and Data Connection was still ON.

Maybe the Lumia is better built than my Samsung Focus. I swear the Focus cannot automatically do this. Maybe it's because it was made for AT&T and not T-mobile.

OPO - Data usage (Cellular) restrictions for calls and data separately

Hi Guys,
I am here with a..I hope possible to solve situation.
I have switched to our local carrier, which provides only 2G and 4G connection, but... I have 1GB of data for 4G, but my OPO is sometimes switching to EDGE, which makes me fury, because I am paying for anything transferred through 2G (separately as it is not in the data package I have), but all calls are on 2G, which makes restricting the connection to "LTE-only" impossible, becuase it would result in no access to the calls/text messages.
I have found this article
http://editorsean.com/articles/how-to-force-three-to-use-3g-and-4g-only/
which is really great, but with those options I am forced to use GSM/LTE and such..
Is there any chance of letting my calls and text messages just using 2G network as usuall, but forcing my internet access using just LTE ? There is of course an option for disabling "national roaming" (I hope, it is called the same in english), I have it disabled, but it is still connecting to the 2G and draining data from it...
Is there a chance it is a problem from my side ? I did not factory reseted the phone since buying, doing just OTA upgrades and such, so I was thinking, if the system is not kind of bloated...I had some weird things happening with it too in the past - recently I have seen that in the battery saving mode I could see some like various screen brightness jumps while playing a game for example.

is anybody facing Network issue

Hi
is anybody is facing network issue in New Asus 6z
everytime network turned off and turned on automatically.

I do not have any connection issues to the mobile network. Can you check at another location?
OP, try "Mobile data always active" in Developer settings. Also try "Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth".

I have some network problems too on my 2 days old Asus zenfone 6. The signal from mobile network is lost for few seconds and imediatly after the signal of wifi is lost. Does anyone have a solution for that?
No network issue as such.
But mobile network standby battery is twice that of screen battery consumption. Could be both are related
Yes, I am having network issues but I am not sure if its the phone issue or airtel network issues. So waiting to see if it fixes after few days.
I have network issues since updating to the 156 firmware. While having full 4g reception the phone switches to 3g for a few seconds without success and then 2g. It show full 2g reception but everything i try runs into a timeout. Switching to 3g only brings back full 3g connectivity most of the time, switching to flight mode and back does not help. Rebooting the phone does not help. If i just let the phone sit in 2g without a connection it "fixes" itself after 10-15 mins. This happens a few times a day. I have tried using different providers (tmobile and vodafone) but the problem remains.
