I recently upgraded to LS 2.10 on my Google Nexus VZW. All is good, except when I come out of a place with no reception such as the subway tunnel. My phone simply won't reconnect unless I do a reboot. I've tried airplane mode swapping - no effect.
Any advice?

Hello all. It seems as though I've come across a pretty serious issue with my Dash 3G. I have been using Ookba's 3VOLUTION ROMs for some time now and over the weekend, my phone suddenly stopped being able to make/receive any calls. I re-flashed the phone to the latest 3VOLUTION ROM (04/10/10 build) and it hasn't fixed the issue. I've put the SIM into another phone and it works perfectly, so I know it's not a bad SIM card. I don't know of any software settings that can persist like this (after a ROM flash). Furthermore, why it happened suddenly is totally beyond me. Does anyone have any suggestions I can try? This is terrible timing as I just had a job interview and I need to keep my "ears open" for a possible callback.
Thanks guys!
Bump - anyone have any suggestions?
I have the same problem. I switched from my personal SIM to my work SIM (another provider) and now it looses the service contact after a few minutes.
I realized this happens when I have the data connection on and the GPS on at the same time. This happened to me the first few days with the original ROM too when I first got the phone. So when I use google maps or evernote with gps, the phone service shuts down. Weird.
Mine is the Ozone by VZW (CDMA) but after it was flashed to the 3VO ROM on WM6.5, I got errors on the GSM side when using the T-Mo prepaid Sim, data connection was turning itself off so I couldn't even access T-zone (which was working just fine earlier, already unlocked & running 6.5)
Took me a while to check, goggle & search - realized that some of the GRPRS & Proxy settings were locked by default to the VZW embedded Sim, and had to go into Connections & under Advanced (Menu - Right Soft Key)
to change it. Sort of tricky since the wap, mms & other settings were all set properly but it was easy once I changed it to T-Mo's proxy & WAP names as created. Same for using AT&T's MEdiaNet, as otherwise, as soon as the GSM network was found, data connection was turned off.
Take a look at yours and check the various Menus & Settings screen to see if it might've been reset to default, etc. etc.
Anyone Figure This Out?
Just happened to me this weekend (T-Mo Dash 3G). Simply stopped connecting to the network for voice or data. Worked fine on Saturday but dead Tuesday morning. Also running 3VOlution ROM. I called T-Mobile and we played with network settings, etc. but no luck. Tried a hard reset and that was no help.
Reset and rebooted countless times after changing any setting I could think of. Hopefully someone has figured this out or it looks like I'll be buying a new phone tonight.
Bad SIM ...

Was a bad SIM. I swapped mine for my wife's and the no signal followed my SIM. Dropped by T-Mobile this morning on the way to work and they gave me a new one free, no questions asked. Phone's back to normal.
Some background on my phone and situation:
I've been rooted, unlocked, and on Synergy ROM for quite some time now, since August 2012. I've updated the ROM many times. I've had a recurring problem where my WiFi is turned on, but randomly cuts out my internet connection. Right now, both 4G and WiFi are on, but I cannot connect to the play store, chrome, email, radio streams, etc. This has happened before and I cannot figure out the problem for the life of me, but holy crap is it ANNOYING!!!! I've done MANY searches and can't seem to find another person with this same problem, using the same terminology, so here I am. Also, it seems I NEVER have more than 2 bars signal strength on 4G (entire other issues - not as important).
I'm running firmware MF1 with MB1 TZ to fix camera, on Synergy r484 (current). However, this has happened to me often over the past many months. I use Unified Remote to control my home PC from the couch, which I gave up on because the app could never establish a wifi connection, or took 30 minutes to get working - I can't handle that. I try doing the *#0011# to turn off wifi power saving mode, but I do not get the same option people talk of when hitting the menu button, and the VZW voice says the update failed or some crap - I don't even know what this is exactly, I just tried it because I'm at my wits end!
Somebody, PLEASE help! This **** is the most annoying thing I've ever had to deal with, and have been dealing with it sporadically for the past many months.
Hi ive posted this in cyanogenmod forums, but maybe someone here experienced similiar issue:
Recently i got myself OnePlus One /China version/. At the moment i have it flashed with CM11 Nightly 01072014.
Everything works fine but the GPS. I am having some odd iggues with it. While it locks correct when im at home (WiFi connection enabled), when i leave home and start using navigation software, be it google maps or anything else, after i go out of reach from Wifi and mobile swaps to Mobile data transfer (HSPDA+) gps loses fix and cant get it locked back up anymore.
When i disable mobile data, it locks back up... so it seems like the issue is connected to mobile data transfer. Its pretty annoying since im using maps that require being 'online' which pretty much forces me to use offline maps.
Anyone ever faced similiar issue? Dont see how it could be connected to my carrier (T-Mobile Poland) since few days back when i was still on my older ACE2, all gps functions on that phone worked fine whilst being on mobile data etc. Only difference might be it wsnt HSPDA+ cappable....
Suggestions? This really is doing my head in, ive been googling around like crazy, trying all kinds of GPS 'fixes' but issue remains and most likely involves that mobile data transfers somehow.
I too am having this problem, what Im going to do is just flash a new radio (baseband) from the stock CM11S rom or maybe another rom and hope for the best. Remember ALWAYS make a back up before you do any mods to your oneplus.
Hi. This issue is driving me crazy. I've been looking for more information but I've only found this thread, a CyanogenMod jira bug (look for issue BACON-115, I can't post links yet), and an issue at Android Open Source Project issue tracker (look for Issue 72311: GPS losing satellites - Nexus 5 - 4.4.3 and 4.4.4)
I first found the jira bug, so I tried the gps.confg settings referenced there, after that the issue was slightly (very little actually) less annoying but the GPS still got lost very frequently, I believe those settings just improved locking/fixing times a bit.
Then I started tinkering with my settings while driving (in stop lights of course, not while actually moving ) and I noticed that as soon as I turned mobile data OFF, the GPS locked immediately and never got lost from work to home (a 30 min drive).
So I started querying Google for things like "GPS lost while mobile data on", after about an hour I got the bug in code.google.com, which suggests it's only happening while 3G data is on, not while 2G. And it is, I can get a constant GPS fix while on 2G. The bug thread hinted about flashing different versions of the radios to find a version that works.
I remembered that with OPO firmware 25R this issue was far less annoying so I went ahead and flashed only the radios from 25R. It was not completely fixed, but my yesterday commute got significantly less GPS signal loss, and when it got loss it took less time to fix again, which I attribute to the gps.conf from the jira bug.
TL;DR
I've experienced this issue with 30O and 33R firmwares and with CM Nightlies (which I'm using right now), but slightly less annoying with 25R. Flashing 25R radios and using the modified gps.conf alleviated the issues a lot but I still get frequent GPS signal lost. Turning off 3G will definitely make GPS fix/lock constantly.
I wonder if there are older radios that could get rid of the issue completely (and what drawbacks using older radios could bring), meanwhile I'm using Tasker to fall back to 2G as soon as I'm connected to my car's bluetooth AND Waze is opened, so that I can get a constant GPS fix/lock while driving.
I think this is an Android 4.4.3/4.4.4 issue, please vote here so that google takes notice of this.
Ever since I got Lollipop on my Nexus 5, I have had major wifi issues. The wifi will randomly drop and only come back if i switch wifi on and off. Over the course of 2+ months, this has gotten increasingly aggravating. This happens both at work and at home.
Symptoms: while using my phone, all of a sudden the network stops working. This can be in the form of games, web browsing, or anything else. All of a sudden there is just a network timeout. If I disable wifi, the cellular network has always worked fine (so long as I have reception of course).
Things I have tried:
1. Flashing stock with a full wipe
2. Flashing a CM12 nightly with a full wipe - I just tried CM12 in the hopes that they may have had some form of bugfix. I had the same issues.
3. Setting the phone to 2.4ghz only.
4. Disabling PMF setting in WIFI config file.
5. Downgraded to Kitkat. I just flashed CM11. I havent used it too much yet but it seems like it is having the same issue.
I am at my wit's end. Is there anything else I can try? Please help!
At first CM11 seemed to help, but after using it for longer it is exhibiting the same WIFI issues. Any suggestions? My phone is quickly approaching paperweight territory...
Hi.
I only have one wifi network around atm. My N5 was working fine with it, and yesterday it started disconnecting from it.
Right now, when I try to connect, it connects for 3 or 4 seconds (it gets an IP address and actually connects to the Internet) before jumping back to data connection. When entering the Wireless menu on my phone it says "WiFi Connection Failure".
I thought I might have tweaked something I shouldn't (since also yesterday I installed Franco kernel and App Ops), so I went back to stock (using the Nexus Toolkit) and in the process I updated to the newest 5.1 release (I had LMY47D version and upgraded to LMY47I).
It didn't help. I also tried changing the router channel and security type to no avail.
Of course, I also tried to turn airplane mode on/off and forgetting network. And I just downgraded to LMY47D to see if that was the problem. But it didn't fix it.
I'm attaching the logcat. I hope I did it properly.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
UPDATE: I noticed it works in Safe Mode. I'll try to find which app is causing it.
I'm having exactly the same problem.
Updated to 5.1, after a run with Nike+ and Runkeeper, with GPS and Cellular Data on, battery drained and phone switched off. After a recharge, this problem emerged, different ROMs, different stock versions, different kernels. Nothing seems to make wi-fi work again.
