Hello all, i have had my HTC sensation 4G (on Bell) for just over a month and a few days ago i started losing my connection to the network intermittently. Super annoying. Anyways i tried deleting some recent apps, figured that might be the issue but nope didnt help. It happened about 3 days in a row until i finally did a Factory Reset on the phone. It worked fine for a bit and then began stopping its connection to the network. Anyways super frustrating, i read some forums about tunring ciphering on and off, i tried that didnt work... needless to say im chapped.
Sorry for the length, but basically wondering if anyone knows how to fix this as its to late to return the phone and i have read through similiar forums on other phones
sorry to hear abt ur problem. i experienced the same thing but i think mine was triggered when i installed juice defender. it would turn off mobile data when the screen was off and when i went to use the phone, i didn't have a connection. i uninstalled the app and did a power cycle and that seemed to fix the problem after i went back into settings and checked the box to turn mobile data on.

This. The phone seems to have trouble (on the stock kernel at least) when switching data from wifi only to cell when cell is turned off. This happens to me when I use wifi calling. The solution I came up with was to connect to a wifi network then turn on mobile data in the quick settings manually. Works every time for me.
HTC really needs to fix this.
Under mobile network in wireless settings, enable always-on mobile data.
This somehow fix my connection whereby it hampers with JD app by not turning on when it needs to.
Thanks for the help guys. I did also recently install a "battery optimizer: in Droid Utilities or soemthing like that, although i did a factory reset. ill try and do a full battery cycle like you mentioned and see if that helps
so the phone worked fine on the weekend, and even friday and i thought it was cause i stopped using a non "htc" charger and got rid of Android Utilities. but now its Tuesday again and like clockwork at 1pm it just stops connecting, if i reset it i get network for a few minutes and then boom out again. Very frustrating mid work day to be without my phone for hours on end. Dont know what to do.
Are you using WiFi at the time it goes out?

No i havent been, not allowed to use private phones on the corporate wireless, but so far i havent found a problem with it switching between wi-fi and H+ while at home.
I have a feeling that Bell Canada may be updating the network or something in the area but they havent said anything both times i called and i asked. so who knows. Its just to much like clockwork for me to think it would be the phone, but who knows.
So i believe i have this figured. I talked to tech support once again yesterday and i point blank asked if it was network problems he said no (3rd person from bell to tell me this) then reccomended i get a sim card change if that didnt work he said send the phone in for repair.
So i went to the downtown bell store talked to the girl, explained why i needed to replace a brand new sim, and she told me that it was because Bell doesnt have towers downtown they share the Telus towers, however because of network bottleneck bell users get less priority and thus i cant use my phone... Not only is this unnacceptable for a phone company to not provide service DOWNTOWN in a major city but having denied it multiple times forcing me to troubleshoot for hours and spend almost an hour talking to bell representatives...
NOT HAPPY. Bell - 5 in my books, lucky my contract is up in a few months and i can switch to telus where i will be able to get signal downtown...
Hi all, woke up this morning to find some strange network errors when using the mobile data network (AT&T).
Error: 502 Bad Gateway on certain sites and apps.
Not working: ESPN, XDA, Speedtest.net, Yahoo, Gamefly, Crackle, Pandora, TuneIn Radio Pro, Flixster.
Working: All google sites and apps, Netflix, Soundhound, Kindle, Nook, Groupon, Urbanspoon, Amazon Appstore, Comixology, Draw Something, Flipboard, Instagram, WhatsApp, Skype, Zinio.
Have not tested all on Wifi, but ESPN and XDA did work at home this morning.
So, can anyone test any of these sites and report back? I wonder if it is a local ATT network thing or something more widespread. I doubt it's a problem with the websites.
The only thing I did this morning was flash V2 of Scott's extended quick settings. On the off chance that caused the error, I flashed back CleanRom 2.1, but the errors remained. Every site was working perfectly yesterday.
Thanks
I have the same problems, my data doesn't work at times and wifi drops like crazy, this is annoying
I only created an account here because no one else on any site is reporting this problem.
The same exact thing is happening to me this morning also. This is very annoying. I did nothing out of the ordinary last night. Last thing I did was check ebay then stop most of the non important apps still running before I went to bed. I awoke this morning, checked my email and went to work. I went to check ebay this morning and the 502 bad gateway appeared. I then went to check my hockey schedule to see the time of my next game. Same 502 error. I went to reload a page I had saved in Safari. Same 502 error. I just did a bunch of searching for this 502 error & AT&T & IPhone or ANYTHING. THIS IS THE FIRST SITE I HAVE FOUND THAT ANYONE ELSE EVEN MENTIONED THIS PROBLEM.
I have a VERY HARD TIME believing that we are the only 3 on the PLANET who are experiencing this. But somehow, NO ONE ELSE IS ASKING THE QUESTIONS. Once I saw that you Artoods had the same problems, I checked the sites you said were working. That appears to be so. My Google, Netflix & drawsomething are working fine. (My Urbanspoon does not appear to be working though, the circle just keeps spinning) So not sure what is happening, but you are not the only one.
Hrm usually means a poor connection. Have you guys tried driving a few miles and try using a different cell tower? It could help you find out if it's just that tower then you would have something to tell your provider.

I am at the workplace, so I cannot for another few hours at least.
Just tested ESPN.com on a co-workers iPhone. Took forever and a half to load, but no 502 error (tried on my phone 5 feet away and still no-go). Will try some others.
In any case, I am going to pass by an ATT store on my break and ask around if the problem persists.

Ok, everything appears to be working for me again. I just went to lunch (about 20 minutes long), when I left for lunch and while waiting for it, these things were still not working. But as I was sitting at my desk eating, I tried again and everything worked. I just checked probably less than 5 minutes ago, so this is all still fresh.
Everyone should check their phone again now. I am not sure why this happened, but for me at least, it appears to be working again. I'll update if anything changes. Thanks to Artoods for first reporting this problem and others for confirming that I wasn't the only one.

Actually no. I am 15 minutes north of Philadelphia, Pa. There is a tower in a town called Willow Grove, maybe a 5 minute drive from here. To my knowledge, that is the closest cell tower.
Network issues but different
For the sake of not starting a new thread, and I have searched for my issue with no resolve here. I am having a slightly different issue but still a strange network problem. I work in an office that carries no cell signal whatsoever , and when I walk outside my phone will indicate that it has obtained signal, 3bars - full service with 4g coverage. However when I attempt to dial a call the phone sits at dialing until it time out like there is no service, no matter how long I wait with it showing signal it continues to do this. The only solution I have is to put the phone in airplane mode wait about 5 minutes and then turn it off. Once it reacquires signal all is good.
Any one else having this issue
Update- Working for me now too. Funny enough, I had to go to the ATT store to handle some account stuff, and when I mention to the staff member the little issue I was having in the morning, my test page loads up perfectly fine .
Still find it very odd that the error was selective about which websites were accessible.

I used to have a similar issue with my old iPhone 4, although I did receive some signal in my office (31st floor). If I went up or down once connection was lost, I could only regain by cycling the airplane mode or mobile data. I'd chalk this up to loss of signal causing temporary radio craziness. Luckily no such issues have plagued my One X so far.

Yeah I kinda figured, I just purchased on 17th and am coming from and Inspire 4g, rooted running ARHD 7.X.X. I never had the issue with that phone but it wasn't "4g" nor was it the same radio. I was just checking if someone had the same issue and had another solution. Maybe a new, Im still running 1.73....
Much thanks man.
The One S got a connectivity fix today, hopefully we'll receive one soon as well

Wow small world, Willow Grove is about 5 minutes from me too.
I wonder if constantly having LTE on is causing problems, maybe it gets stuck trying to acquire a signal
I think AT&T may have had internal network issues, I was having pretty severe connectivity problems on mobile data for a while on my Inspire today, cleared up by lunchtime though.
Had the same network errors this morning. I'm actually traveling in south Florida and it cleared up by around noonish today. Weird

Hello I have a year and half old LG Optimus 3D. Model P925G. Unrooted running 2.2.2. I am through Rogers canada. My service was susspended about 3 weeks ago. I have been using wifi all this time to access e-mail, facebook etc...At home I piggyback off my neighbours linksy router. Never had a problem. Then couple days ago wifi stopped allowing internet access at all. It says full connection however. So i did many soft reboots.Including a factory reset. Nothing changed. Took phone to Rogers store. Clerk proceeded to enter wifi hot spot password it connected right away withy full access. I left went into Safeway and public library. Both showed full wifi connection but no access, untill i answered yes to their respective agreements on my browser. Then full Internet access. At home still no access but showing full connection. I tried using password to my roomates telus router. It says authenticating but kicks off over and over as disabled. yet connects freely to the neighbours linksy. I set my wifi to never sleep, I reset the router, Ive tried everything I know. nothing helps. Rogers clerk says wifi is fine as it connects at shop. Its not fine. At my house or most anywhere else it refuses to work. Im a relatively tech unsavy guy. However i like my phone and need this to work. Can someone out ther help me? Or is my phone ****ed. Ill be back up on full data service soon but need wifi as data plans are costly. Very frustrated. I feel Ive overloode something might be basic. Help help help!!!!!! Thanks

I just received my Nexus 5 today. Got it all set up and I have noticed that the internet connection kind of drops off when I'm on Wifi. I have full bars, but there will be no data. Josh reported similar behavior in his review model on The Verge.
I can't tell if it's a wifi specific issue or not yet. I turned off the "save battery" option under wifi and it's still doing it. The phone will simply stop receiving data in any app. It's not my router. My other devices work fine. I am rooted and do have Adaway installed, but this doesn't affect my Moto X or Galaxy Note 3.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I've been trying to look at current wireless issues and this one is a little new.
So far (No tethering on Sprint - problems with some T-Mo) and that it doesn't see 2.4Ghz channels past 11 and that it can't see some 5ghz channels either.
I can confirm I have this issue as well, I have got my N5 now for 2 days and the problem started yesterday. I have 2 broadband connection at home and cannot receive data on either router, It was working fine until yesterday when the problem started. I have restarted the device several times to no avail. Am not sure why this is happening , do I have to send this back anyone?
I would play around with the router settings if anything.
See if your router is doing 2.4 ghz or 5 ghz.
DO all possibilities before resorting to the exchange.
Oh god, the Nexus 4 had this problem also. Was something with the Qualcomm-drivers. My Nexus 5 picks up notifications much faster, but sometimes I notice a delay for a few minutes (2/3 minutes), with an app like WhatsApp - if it hasn't been in use for a while. With the Nexus 4, I sometimes received my notifications like 30-45 minutes later.

My router is currently set to auto between 2.4 and 5ghz. Also I have had issues with phone being stuck on edge or sometimes just stuck on gprs and it happens mostly just when I need Internet access. Google is disappointing.
And am at work now and the wifi that was working okay yesterday has now stopped working ... I think this has to go back, such a shame.
I can confirm I have the same Wi-Fi dropping issues on my Nexus 5.
Yes, quite a few threads here describing this same problem. Hopefully a mod will join them soon. I too experience this issue. Someone noted Nexus 10 had that problem at launch which Google fixed shortly after with a software update. I noticed Google support forums also have this reported. Fingers crossed for a quick fix from Google!

I bought a nexus 5 to replace my galaxy s4 which died a couple of days ago.
My home router is a Netgear D6300 and everything (pc, tv and phones such as iphone, samsung and nokia can connect just fine).
My nexus 5 was delivered today and i spent the last 5 hours to get it working with my wifi but NOTHING worked (and, i'm not joking, i got to the point of almost throwing it out of the window).
I tried enabling SSID broadcasting, changing "security options", changing channels, disabling 5ghz network, i also enabled the guest network with no protection but nothing worked.
The only thing i noticed was the when using particular channels (5-6-7) the phone would say "connecting" for a few seconds but then it would go back to "saved,protected with wpa/wpa2".
I also changed some wifi settings on my phone (i disabled wifi optimization and i forced the phone to use the 2.4 ghz network only)
Sometimes it stays on "saved....." and doesn't even seem to try to connect.
After a while i tried creating an hotspot with an iphone 5s and my nexus connected in a second and everything was working.
So the problem should be in my router settings but i already tried everything (and besides everything else but the nexus works just fine).
I'm really desperate because i use this phone for work and i need to get this working asap.
I also managed to update to android 4.4.4 using my mobile network but i can't update to lolipop because it would use all my remaining 3g network data.
Btw i did some heavy modding on my galaxy s4 so i'm not a newbie to android.
I'm also willing to pay for support but to be honest i'm really disappointed that such and "acclaimed" phone has problems connecting to a wifi network that works with basically everything.
Sorry if I missed it in the post, but did you reboot the router.

Yes but it didn't help.
I've had 4 N5's in my possession over the past year or so, and not a single one had any issues connecting to any WiFi network, including Netgear routers. Your problem is either specific to your particular device or your router and not with the N5 in general. I assure you, the N5 deserves all the praise (and criticisms) that it has received.ave you tried a different router? I know you used it with your iPhone's hotspot but I mean an actual router? Also, have you tried resetting your router to defaults?
Are you using MAC filtering on the router?

I just tried a dlink router on my home network and everything works!!!!!
But i want to understand why my D6300 doesn't work with the nexus (its configured the same way as the dlink).
Any suggestions???
In the meantime i'll reset the D6300.

If your router is handing out DHCP addresses it may have run out of addresses if you have many wireless devices connecting infrequently. But I would thing a reboot would have cleared that up.
