This is kind of odd, I noticed that for the last week or so, the cellular signal keeps dropping constantly, I mean all the way down to no reception, then comes back up to 2 bars, I don't recall ever having a reception of more that 2 bars ( we all know that the signal on the ONE+ is not the best).
Anyway, the signal keeps dropping, it happens in like a 20-30 seconds span, it keeps doing that all day, I stated noticing that after people was claiming they called me and couldn't get to me.
It happened con CM11S, CM11 nightlies, and on PA(my daily driver) maybe the radio files got corrupted somehow, or because of the constant flashing?
Has anybody experienced this?
Thanks.
I have had this problem recently. Mahdi is giving me a fit right now. I drop calls when making and receiving a call.

Title - meant to say randomly lose service and have to reboot
I have only had this happen about 3 times since owning the phone (since two weeks after launch). Occasionally, my phone will altogether lose service and display the blue circle with a slash through it, and I have to reboot the phone to regain service. This happens in an area where I have signal usually, when this happens. Does anyone else have this issue?
I had a problem similar to this last night/this morning. I didn't make any changes/mods to the phone either...
Phone was on the charger last night and when I woke up this morning I noticed I didn't have any emails. I still had the 3G icon and 2 signal bars, but anything I would try to do using internet connectivity wouldn't work (checking mail, navigating to google.com, etc.). I just shrugged it off since this has been the first time it happened.
For what it's worth, I'm running JF6 with UnleashTheBeast and the circle battery meter thing...
RE: Network loss, etc.
I've had issues like this from day one. From my testing, it seems to be related to the radios. (Both wifi and 3g.)
Stock was horrid for me, but then again, I live/work in a place with really crappy radio reception. It was tough to tell if the 3g or voice network service losses were just "the location" or something with the phone. But the fact that it's doing it with WIFI when I'm 3 feet from my AP, and no other devices are having issues is telling. Things have stabilized a bit with one of the SRE 1.2 OC builds.
That, and I'm now having intermittent sound issues too. (Can't play ringtones for a few minutes, then I can, then I can't, etc. )
I'm actually starting to suspect it's relating to the blocking filesystem lag. Almost as if some app is just killing the FS. I'll keep investigating. But it's good to know I'm not the only user who is seing service drops in strange ways.
I'm having similar issues with data connection, and i'm completely stock at the moment. My coverage is great so it just doesn't make sense.

Yeah, it's completely random when it happens, and it has happened two out of three times in an area where I have service...
I am currently on the TMO Stock rom but i do have S-off and rooted, I have noticed that at random times my signal will just drop and i will have an X where the bars are located meaning im not connected to any network. I am not sure if there is a setting that i am missing that cuts the connection after a certain amount of time or if there is a known issue with the Sensation, I normally just restart my phone and the problem is resolved for the time being
Mine does that too (XE), it regains signal after a while.
This has just started happening with me over the past week or 2 as well. I switched from ARHD to Elegancia ROM and it still seems to be happening. I'm going to try switching radios and see what happens
Probably a tower issue (not phone).

I have an unlocked HTC One S that has major signal issues. When the phone boots, there's no service for a few minutes before it decides to actually kick in. WiFi and everything seemed to not work but after putting it into "Best Wi-Fi Performance" mode it seems have resolved. But the cellular signal drops constantly. I've read that this is quite the common issue with these phones and am wondering how they are so popular if this is the case. Regardless, has anyone discovered the reason for the issue or some sort of jimmy rig to fix this issue?

please mention your hboot , radio , Rom.
I'm having a similar problem. Occasionally I get a signal strength of 2 billion dBm. (255 asu)
What seems to be alleviating a lot of it is a set of mods to build.prop.
ro.ril.fast.dormance.rule=1
ro.ril.gprsclass=1
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=1
ro.ril.hsupa.category=1
ro.ril.hsxpa=2
These settings are the absolute slowest possible, but they do seem to be improving the connection quality.
Same problem to me. I have a new S4 from 2 days, bought "refurbished" from aliexpress at a good price. It's new, looks great but signal and in call audio quality is weak.
Phone works good on "GSM only". If i set GSM/WCDMA, I lose signal and phone stops itself.
I started with stock 4.0.3, phone stops itself.
Updated to 4.0.4, phone doesn't stop but no signal with WCDMA enabled.
Then I unkocked, rooted and tried Miui V5 (4.1), same problems.
After installing Maximus HD, I had signal also with GSM/WCDMA, but immediately I installed newer firmware and signal was lost. (Works only on "GSM only").
Tried also Beanstalk, CM11, MagioRom, SourcE, Slim kat. No signal with GSM/WCDMA.
I don't know if works with Maximus with older firmware, or it was only a coincidence. Don't know what firmware was at that moment.
Went to a bigger city and 3g worked excellent.
Returned back to home, no signal with 3g enabled.
I guess my phone is weak at signal.
Hello.
Bought this OPO recently second hand. It sadly had an issue with connectivity. It has really bad reception 99% of the time, no matter where you are. Below -103 dBm and is rarely usable at all.
I have noticed though, that it sometimes gets really good reception with +HSPA, but then it switches to 3G, and the reception dives to < 100 dBm (most often unusable). It does the same when roaming on the 2G-net - sometimes good reception, but most often really bad.
I have flashed different basebands, but didn't help, so I expect it to be a hardware issue. Does anybody have any idea, what it could be? I can fix most things myself, as long as I know what the issue is and where to get the spare part.
Thanks in advance!
Okay. So I haven't actually been using 4G a lot, but I got around to testing it yesterday. It seems 4G isn't affected by the problem, since it holds a 4G service really well. But as soon as it switches to 3G/+H, the reception drops dramatically.
Same problem here. I have tried many ROMs but the problem isn't solved. Now I am trying to flash .img files one by one and I will tell you how it goes a few days later.
...
Hello again,
After flashing all .img files one by one it still didn't work. The problem was that the previous owner of this phone had the IMEI changed. So I found a guy to recover its original IMEI and now it's all fine.
Does anyone else have this problem and if so are there any fixes available?
I have fairly good cell signal within my home (around 95db), in the past (event when I first purchased my Pixel) I would never have any issues with calls being dropped but within the last 2 months I have noticed that when I use my Pixel normally (not on a call) the signal strength is fairly normal, but as soon as I answer a call the signal strength drops off and more often than not the call drops. I've had to start making sure whenever I am talking with someone I have to be near a window. My wife has a Samsung S7 and this does not happen to her.
Does this happen with anyone else?
Thanks so much in advance!
When the phone is idle it connects to LTE network but when you place a call it switches to HSPA network, that's why your reception drops down. At least that's what happenes on my phone.
