I've submitted this issue since July but the problem exists for me since the very first Developer Preview. Basically my Pixel behaves normally when connecting to both WiFi and mobile data. But sometime during the day the phone "loses" mobile data and a Mobile data has run out message appears, even though I have a prepaid line with enough quota still available. I had the issue in DP1, DP3 and final Oreo version (skipped DP2 and DP4) and nothing goes on with the submitted issue. So I've avoided updating because obviously I need my mobile data at all times.
There is some people commenting on the issue but I don't feel like Google is taking this seriously.
Google is working on a fix.

I have the same issue too.But few days ago,I disabled the system app "carrierdefaultapp" by a third-party app (my pixel was rooted) and the issue disappeared.

ice box or you can delete the carrierdefaultapp(/system/app/CarrierDefaultApp) by RootExplorer
I have pretty good signal on my Pixel XL Android 8.0.0 Oreo.

yep, can confirm this works. It's been like 5 days and I have not encountered the issue any more. I don't know how I didn't think about that. Thanks!
Wouldn't going into Developer options under Networking and disabling "Mobile Data always active" accomplish the same thing? I thought the bug responsible for this is that Oreo enables this by default.

doesn't seem to be related at least in my case, just removed the CarrierDefaultApp and that was it. BTW I checked and the toggle is off but I don't remember if it was toggled on before.

By removing CarrierDefaultApp are you removing all mobile data capability?
No, I can toggle data on and off as usual. That just removes the new data-management functionality which appears to be broken for some of us.

I recently unrooted my galaxy S3 and returned to stock.
But now both the wifi icon and 4G icon appear at the same time. Please I do I fix this?
Android version: 4.1.2
Build: VRBMD3
Thanks.
It seems to be related to the new "Caller ID" app that VZW included with the update in the past couple of days. It's a trial program that will cost $$$ if you want to run it permanently. One solution is to simply remove the app (have to be rooted to do this though). Others reported toggling WiFi and/or data off and on or something also solved it.
Sounds like the symbol I used to get when connected to a vzw network extender

You can disable on a non-rooted phone but it won't remove the app.
Hey Guys.
Been having problems with my Z5 E6653 (5.1.1, Build: 32.0A.6.200) Lately unsure exactly what caused it.
The device is NOT rooted and using stock firmwares.
The device will self reboot randomly at times, however it appears I can almost guarantee it will reboot faster and is reproducible by enabling and disabling the mobile data and when being used as a hotspot. The 'Data Usage' tab under 'Settings' does not work it goes to open then force closes and says it stopped working.
Anyone have any ideas? You guys tell me where to get the logs from and I will post them here
One last thing.. In before someone says "Factory Reset" I know it will fix this issue as it did in the past however I am looking for solutions to fixing this without resorting to a factory reset if possible. I don't have internet at my house I rely mobile data and hotspots.
Stuff you guys probably want to know about.
Some stock apps are disabled "Google Hangouts, Movie Creator, File Commander" (I don't use these at all and until locked bootloader root is available they will be disabled until deleted with TB. I have disabled notifications for some downloaded apps namely games like Cut the Rope and so to remove silly toast and push ads.

I had something similar happen in LP, I suspect related to disabling some of the bloat. From your list I disabled all save hangouts, try to reenable them all then only disable one by one. Can't you upgrade to MM though, it appears this has been solved.

Yea I tried that didn't work. Ended up factory reset. Well MM isn't out on the Telstra operator. Been waiting for it though read a lot about bugs so I'll hold off until the kinks are worked out. Cheers though.
Not sure I agree that's it's been fixed - I'm on stock MM and have a random reboot at least once a week - normally when playing audio (PowerAmp) when connected over Bluetooth in the car.
Did this happen to anyone else? After upgrading to marshmallow, my Bluetooth keeps turning on even though I know I turned it off.
Same here
Still happening actually. Thought it was my Mi Band but its not

How about try Factory Reset?
I think that this has to do with your location services. If you go to location and select improve accuracy, make sure that you have bluetooth scanning disabled. leaving that on leaves the bluetooth on and allows your phone to connect to paired devices whenever.

I'm running a Marshmallow 6.0.1 Android TV Box (Build T5ZP0007) and I have the same problem with Bluetooth not staying disabled after reboot. If I have it disabled, it ALWAYS enables itself on reboot. This was occurring since I received the box before installing any apps. I checked the settings you mentioned but I have my Location Service (GPS) disabled. I've checked EVERY apps' PERMISSION and tried force quitting the Bluetooth Sharing app before and after clearing cache and data. Nothing worked. The damn Bluetooth still turns back on at reboot.

After all of that research,, I couldn't figure it out. Since I have root access, I ended up renaming Bluetooth.apk to Bluetooth.apk.disabled. Problem solved.
Hello, so over the past month I've noticed a huge spike in data usage and it's from Android OS. I've used 1.08 gigs in about 3 weeks. Anyone else having similar issues? No new apps installed. Running the latest version. Hope someone can shed some light on this for me!
Thanks.

Go into settings and then Data and tap more in the upper right hand corner and restrict the background data on apps that you don't use.. I pretty much have everything restricted because when I open it the data will work fine in the foreground just not in the background after it's closed. Saves me a lot of data!

If I restrict all background data will I still receive notifications for email, messages, Facebook messages, hangouts, etc...? And I can't restrict background data for Android OS. It's grayed out.

No don't restrict all of it or you won't get the notifications just do as many as you can that you don't use so it stops using data when you aren't using them.

Yes they do... What model phone do you have? Verizon? Because when I updated to MM 6.0 it was draining the battery in less than 2 hours of screen on time and killing my data and I wasn't about to accept that so I downgraded back to Lollipop! I get a good 8 to 12 hours of screen on time now. I do think the only way to fix the battery problem when updating is to factory reset the device first so there's absolutely nothing on it and then update to MM 6.0..

Verizon Note 5. And my battery isn't the issue. Data is. And why would Android OS be listed separately if all the other apps are also listed separately, showing their own data usage?
Bump. Anyone?

They're listed separately so you can see which one is using the most data, that way you'll know which one it is.. The other thing is, you need an OS in order for anything to run obviously which is why I said they all run on the OS. But like I said they're separated for a reason.

So they're using twice the data? That's what my phone is showing...

Personally I don't know what your phone is doing since I can't see it but just because they're displayed in a way that you can see them all doesn't mean they're using twice the data.

True. I just don't know what changed. Just out of the blue Android OS started using 10+ times the amount of data.

Did you do anything at all before this started to do that? If not, maybe you should try factory resetting the phone because I know data isn't cheap anymore!
By the way, there's also network monitoring tools on the play store that you can try out so you can pin it down to which process is using it all up.
I did nothing new / different. Factory resetting is annoying. What's the best app to pinpoint which process it is?

So, still no update. Those apps don't measure specific apps or anything. But it's pushing 2gb a month of data.
I'm also looking for answers.
Android OS used 1GB data in one day in the backgroud (uploading). So it's not updates.
I'm not using Cloud or any other backup service.
Just started recently. Wifi calling is off. Didn't see any other setting. Anyone know?
It might be because I have wifi smart settings turned on but just recently turned off GPS. Just to turned it back on so we'll see...
Apparently it's not those settings. Problem still persisting. Anyone know please speak up.
Been dealing with same issue. Seen people talk about turning off optimizations for certain apps that is a possible fix. Google connectivity and wifi.
Thanks. How do you do this?

It's in the app settings in the 3 dot menu under optimizations. Like I said it seems to be a hit or miss.

It's an app that assists with Wifi connection. You can find it in the Play store under Google Connectivity Services so you know what the logo looks like, at least in case it's under a different name. Namely used to automatically connect you to good public WiFi APs and auto-tunnel you to Google's VPN.
fixed it for me
Try installing the app called "WIFI KeepAlive" (the one with a grey antenna not green wifi bars)
This fixed it for me
