I have just recently found out and realize that below is happening to me.
"Notification bar icons (Wi-Fi, network coverage bars, etc.): Turn green when you have an uninhibited connection to Google, white when you don't. Hint: if you're in a hotel or airport using Wi-Fi, the bars won't turn green until you launch the browser and get past the captive portal."
quoted from http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/some-cool-android-tips-and-tricks.html
when the phone is put to sleep, it often turn white. meaning it got disconnected from google services.
this also resulted to not receiving any push notification (especially on gmail).
when i turn it on again, it will then try to connect to google services and after a while, you will see that the signal bar turn green again.
then only suddenly you receive all the missed notification (this includes gtalk).
anyone has experience similar issue?
(note, i am testing this on mobile data only). going to try it on wifi later.
you seriously have to search the forum, cause this has been covered in a million page thread already in a few different places

but this doesn't seems to happen to my N1 which is on stock 2.2.1
and guide/direction on where the original discussion is much appreciated.

It's a known issue for the nexus s with a huge thread discussing it.
Unless I'm confusing the issue? Can anyone tell me if I'm thinking of something else?

Your's was a pointless statement. You didn't even ask a question. Are you having problems making calls, or getting data, or does it just bother you that only 1 bar is showing? How do other phones behave in the same location? Did it work with the factory firmware?
The patient says, "Doctor, it hurts when I do this." "Then don't do that!"

You need to give a lot more info than "1.6 something" for anyone to help. Just FYI, every radio on the Thunderbolt right now is "1.6 something." Also, you have one bar, but has it been better on the other radio? Does it drop in and out? Do you have data, or only affecting voice calls? What is your actual signal reading (in dbm)? Did you flash anything recently?
Kinda weird that you would give no info and get upset when no info is given back.
My radio is 1.1600_W1
The other radios are
1.12
And the leaked is 1.13
I flashed adrynalnye kernal test A.zip
Got 6-5 bars now.
My mistake. Glad you got it working. For reference, do you remember what kernel you were on when you had signal issues?

I'm not sure which kernel it was sorry.
My buddy rooted my phone tonight, I still have to read up on the whole process, as I'm clueless to most of it.
I tried to download the Data Widget so my battery life won't go down the toilet. Now it says it can't alter data when I try to turn it on. How can this issue be resolved?
Thank you

The best app for turning on/off your data or the radio is "LTE On/Off" from the market.
If you're referring to just your mobile data, it would depend on your ROM. Need the specs.
I was looking for this app to turn on/off only data, but allow phone calls and texting.
Lets see, from what I can gather, and he didn't say much during it, is that I have gingerbread, and I have the omfgb rom currently. Does this help?
Thank you

I'm not on an AOSP ROM. I'm on a Sense based ROM but from what I gather, JuiceDefender would automatically turn off your mobile data when the screen is off.
I don't use it so I can't personally vouch for it but that's what I found via Google.com
Well now I downloaded that app and I think I picked the wrong option and now I can't get 4g, and I deleted the app thinking that would fix it but I'm still not seeing 4g at the top. I'm seeing bars, but not 4g.

You'll have to play with the options.
If you're not seeing 4G, 3G or 1X in the top bar, then your mobile data is off.
You'll be able to receive phone calls/texts but no data.
Well I went to setting and wireless/networks but there is nothing there. Where would I find these settings?

I would not be the expert on that app. Here's the link to the OMFGB thread.
Once you get over 10 posts or so, you can post in there and ask them.
They're the experts on that AOSP ROM.

Thank you, that is much appreciated.
On another note, I was able to find the location in settings and put my "preferred" back to CDMA + lte/evdo (or something like that.) After a reboot, the 4g is back.
I'll still hunt for help on the lte on/off app.
Thanks again

nothing works on it dude
It boots but like he said nothing works. No data nothing. So you can swipe screens. I also thought by flashing that and then flashing the At&t zip after that it might work. Hells Nope! Us canadians are shafted
There is a working rogers cwm flashable ics, though. a few of us have it, but im on att and cant say what all works and what doesnt. They have told me most stuff is working, though

Is there a thread that goes with this? Or where did this one come about? Assuming this isn't RaverX3X's T989 rom?

So... I'm really confused now.
Multiple searches, and reading tons of this forum on a daily basis for several months now had led me to the conclusion that the i727 and i727R are identical hardware... how is it possible that this isn't working on Rogers? Could it be something as silly as an environment variable set differently somewhere?
Looking forward to seeing a post that somebody cracks this puzzler soon. As far as I can tell all of the ATT and Rogers ROMS up to now were interchangable...
Have I misunderstood, or are these phones not physically (chipset, hardware...) identical?

They are as identical as two phone with different branding can be. The software is different and that leak is very AT&T specific. So there's something in there that screws up the R. If you take it south and run an AT&T SIM I'll bet it works just fine. The good news is that it is software so someone will find it and make a more generic version. Besides, I'm here to *not* run a stock ROM so I'm staying far away until it settles down and the devs have dived in.

Alright, beautiful. this works on my Rogers i727R. Just I have the home button issue. I'll look over the phone to see what else is working and not working over the next few hours while I'm in class.
Thanks!
Edit:
1) Receiving errors when trying to download apps on the market.
2) Trying to fix the home button. It works on start up on the homescreen, but once an app opens it stops working.
both known issues with fixes. (the main at&t threads talk about his)
Factory reset until home issue goes away
clear data/force stop to download apps.
joshuaauger said:
Here's how I fixed that. I ran dark side super wipe before install then install, run wipe data factory/ reset, wipe dalvik, fix permissions. (Overkill but hey just in case). After, when first boot comes up and the AT&T setup shows, click cancel then next. RIGHT when that's done pull the battery, before any apps install. Start back up and was fine, no home button issue but still no working reboot menu.
Anyways might work for others.

I had that same error on my skyrocket but it fixed after i did a factory reset and the market updated to the play store.
I figured that was the problem, but my market won't update. Anything I can do to force it to update to Play Store?

a while back i had the problem where it wouldn't update so i just had my girlfriend send the Play Store apk to me from her skyrocket with an app sharer and that caused it to work
eventually it will. automatically maybe try clearing data as previously mentioned but then do a soft reset?

Yup. It eventually did randomly.
Last problem I'm encountering is I seem to be stuck on 4G and unable to get LTE, unless the icon at the top is having trouble.

Nice! Does this update the modem & baseband as well? Can you post a screen of your About Phone settings?
Tested next to other much cheaper phones, I always have a lower signal strength.

What version are you on and what radio are you using? I had the same thing happen when I upgraded to 4.4.2. Rolled the radio back to .17 and had a much better signal. There are several threads running that address this.
