Well I just got my At&t Fuze like 3-4 days ago. For some reason it randomly loses connection to the network, so I can make call or use the internet. I'll have to go back to setting- communication to turn off my phone turn it back on then turn on the data connection. I'm really tiring of it happening over and over again. Does anyone else have this problem? And are there any ways to fix it? Thanks
No one has any idea??
Are you still running the stock ROM? If so, GET RID OF IT!!!!
In all seriousness: Have you installed any applications? Have you modified TouchFLO 3D? You can always try a hard reset and see if the problem persists.
It's possibly a problem with AT&T's network. I've noticed that my 3G speeds are incredibly slow lately and others on hofo have had this issue as well. I would advise you to wait it out.
forp me it says i get 3g,edge, or G and i will cant connect sometimes.
I also have this issue. Sometimes it happens after a soft reset or for no reason at all. It is easy to fix as i just turn data back on but I don't know why it is happening.
I actually tried a hard reset reset and it didn't work so then I brought it back to At&t and the guy there fixed it for me. He said it was because the data connection was off so then I thought maybe I accidentally turned it off, but the problem persist after.
Yes, I am still running under stock rom, I installed google map, beejive, and some other that I don't think will cause this problem. I am afraid to flash because I already have a lot of contact info set in and data and would have to re-do everything.
I was hoping maybe someone would have a solution for this. I don't think running on stock rom would cause this.....
Any help would be great. Thanks
I just flash it to NATF's rom and it's working really well right now. I hope the problem will not appear again. Again thanks for the rom NATF
I now get it often that there is a problem with the GPRS in your area. Also there are times that the phone is not even connected. It is getting to be a pain but will try calling AT&T and find out
Even after installing a new rom the problem still continue. I tried going into an At&t store and ask, but they have no clue. I don't have time to call 611 right now, but will update with what they say when I do. It starts to get really annoying....

It's probably a network issue.
Regarding flashing, I suggest you back up your contacts with outlook. Even if the problem has nothing to do with software, you're missing out quite a bit in terms of speed. Besides, you should back up your contacts regardless. Don't trust windows mobile too much
OK, sounds like I'm not the only one experiencing this problem. I think the only thing that's different for me is that when I lose the data connection, I also lose voice. The first time it happened, it said my SIM was unprovisioned. When I called customer service, they didn't know beyond checking for network outages in my area.
Fuze_tactic & Tribalmunky
I thing both of your problems -- intermittently dropping the data connection for Fuze_tactic, and intermittently dropping the voice and data connection for Tribalmunky -- could be caused by the Long Press End button setting. Go to Start/Settings/System/LongPressEndKey to see what I'm talking about. There is one setting for Airplane mode, which would kill voice and data, and another for killing just the data connection. Try changing the long end key press to Set Vibrate/Ringer and see if that cures your issue(s). If you are occasionally long pressing the end key, your should develop a problem with intermittently losing your ringer.

No, I've checked that. It happened once when it was just charging, no where near my hands or anything that could have pressed it. When it happens I can't make calls or reestablish data connections until I either go in the connections manager or soft reset.

Like tribalmunky said we were no where near the phone when it happens, but I follow your instruction and changed the long pressed key. I'll see if anything occurs. Thanks for the input tho.
Update:
I called At&t and from what tech support told is, their network is having problems, especially for users in Cali. They are in progress of fixing it, but no idea how long it is going to take. I guess the only thing we can do now is wait.

I've been having problems with this too (losing data and phone) and I'm in Seattle. Maybe if I call, AT&T will claim there are problems with the entire west coast.
I did the whole SPL and ROM flashing thing (ROMeOS) and the problem still persists. I chatted online with an AT&T guy and he said it was a known issue but no way to fix it yet.
If you're worried about your contacts, don't be. Use PPCPimBackup (I think I got it either here or at freewarepocketpc.net) and it can copy all of your contacts onto the storage card. It's free and I've used it prior to flashing a new ROM.
However, flashing ROMs do not work. The only fix is simply going to your communications settings, turning off Data, then turning it right back on. This will also be why some of your MMS pictures don't get sent out.
I still love this phone, just get annoyed with it at times. Even the available larger battery with cover only makes my phone last about two days opposed to one.

I am in NJ and have the same problem. It started about the time I loaded some screen lock software that requires a finger swipe to unlock the touch screen (navigation buttons always active) upon coming out of sleep mode. I just decided to live with it, I like the software. I merely click the data connection in settings, connections, data connection (it may indicate off or on, doesn't matter, it is actually off) and then click it on and everything works again. Mostly happens after charging overnight.
I have stock fuze and it keeps happening to me too. But whenever I reset my phone, I can connect to the internet. I don't think it's network related in my case. not sure though.
Has anyone experienced any issues with missed calls (no notifications) or delayed text messages with their Nexus 5?
I've had the phone since 5 November and it seems when the phone goes into deep sleep the only notifications I can consistently get are ones that are data based (Gmail, email, hangout chat, etc.). At first I thought it only happened while I was on WiFi, but I tested this out by turning off WiFi and using only LTE and then only 3G, but the issue remained.
I've noticed with SMS and voicemails that once I unlock the screen and make a call or send a text I'll receive a deluge of notifications and messages at once, and I've been told that phone calls ring twice as if my phone is off but I never see any notification of a missed call unless there is a voicemail (again, like SMS, doesn't show up until I unlock and use my phone). It feels like the phone drops the connection with a cell tower while in deep sleep or something.
The short list of troubleshooting I've tried is turning off WiFi battery optimization, toggling between LTE to 3G only, and a factory reset. I haven't loaded the stock image from Google yet. I use Textra as my default messaging app, but the messages come in fine when I'm active on the device so I don't believe it's app related. Same goes for phone calls; everything is fine as long as the phone is relatively active.
I saw on the Google support forums that people have reported issues with the WiFi turning off when in deep sleep; at least they are unable to ping the device after a while so I wonder if could have something to do with battery saving optimizations in KitKat.
Anyone have similar issues, or ideas on what I could do to try to fix it?

The first one is the most recent thread, but I'd suggest that anyone that is experiencing the problem and comes across this XDA thread go post in both of the Google Forums to show Google how many are really having this issue. So far nobody from Google has acknowledged there being problem.
I have that same issue, also on TMO. It seems like the phone forgets it's connected to a cell network until you remind it. However, I noticed it first on my HTC one when I installed the stock 4.3 update.
I called TMO support and they reset my line or something. It *seemed* to fix the problem, but I'm not entirely sure because I got my N5 very shortly thereafter. I'm now experiencing the same issue on my N5.
Of particular note is that it always happens in the evening. Even if I toggle airplane mode around 6pm, by 8pm I'll have missed texts. I've just started periodically calling my voicemail to reestablish cell connection.

Airplane mode turns off everything and you will not receive anything until it is back on. Only wifi works.

Hmm, I'll give T-Mobile a call then and see what they have to say as well. I'm glad I'm not the only one, but it sure is a pain in the ass to have to micro-manage the actual phone aspect of a smartphone, heh.

I think he meant that he toggles Airplane mode on and off in order to try and re-establish the connection to the cell tower; not that he's expecting messages while Airplane mode is on.
Just to update anyone that comes across this thread, I flashed the stock 4.4 images and still have the delayed texts and missed calls after the phone goes into deep sleep. I currently have a conversation with a Google support tech, but I'm not encouraged by their suggestions at this point.
This just happened to me as well, I'm on Vodafone Romania. I only have the N5 since yesterday, and it's on 3G only, wifi always on. Wifi connects fine, today I actualy got an email from a friend who's been trying to call me unsuccesfuly for 1 hour. I just hope this is sw related, as the warranty is not valid in Romania

I just got my n5 yesterday.
I'm in Toronto, Canada on Fido network and twice in 24 hrs I have had the cell network not available, displaying message " emergency calls only."
If I restart the phone it will see the network a minute after it restarts.
What's up with that?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
I experienced this problem on every single android phone I've ever had. I dont think its a carrier problem. I think its a OS problem. I've used T-Mobile, AT&T, Straight Talk and Sprint. All of my phones have done it. HTC Evo, evo3d, galaxy s2 epic 4g touch, nexus4 and nexus5.
To me it seems like it happens more often with games. I may be playing a game of Navy Wars (a battleship game) or words with friends. I pick my phone up to do something and as soon as I turn it on I get a notification saying its my turn when actuality my opponent made their move a long time ago. Its also an issue with IM apps like hangouts and whatsapp.
happens on carrier data and wifi.
If anyone has a fix for it I'd love to know what it is.
I have exactly the same issue with my N5 sometimes i get massages 5 or 6 h after they sent. And some missed calls. It never happened to me on my N4 so i believe its phone issue.
I'm glad that I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. I do believe this is a software/OS problem as well, but I find it strange that I couldn't find more about it on Google's support forums or even more threads about it on XDA.
I wanted to update everybody and let them know that Google support put in an RMA for my phone in order to try to resolve the issue. I explained to the support tech that I tried resetting the phone to defaults and reloading the latest images that were posted (KRT16M) and could still produce the same issue without fail; I even took a video with my Galaxy Nexus and sent it to them.
And I gave up on being connected to WiFi all the time. Once I connect to WiFi and let the phone go idle all the issues begin, and then I'll have the problem on 3G/LTE when I turn off WiFi. Rebooting with WiFi off will get me back to normal, but this is obviously very inconvenient and putting a serious cramp in my monthly data usage.
I have absolutely 0 confidence that this is a hardware issue, but at this point I'll try anything so my fingers are crossed that the RMA/new device does the trick since it seems such a small percentage of people seem to be talking about this particular issue.
I'll post an update once I get the new phone and test.
I just wanted to chime in and say I've got the Nexus 5 on Tmo's $30 plan and I haven't experienced this at all. All my calls come through exactly as they should...maybe it is a hardware issue or even a Tmo issue.
I had this problem on Sprint. On one of the Sprint forums (S4GRU), I was told about a Sprint LTE issue. You can read more if you want, but net-net, the recommendation was to switch to 3g in areas where the LTE issue is occurring. Yes, it is a pain in the rear, but it seems to help me at least get the calls that I need. (data is available for me over wifi at this location).
Again, this is specific to Sprint, and only in some impacted areas.
(I did have Google send me a replacement phone - that didn't solve this issue)
There is 2 posts about the same issue on google forum
i can't post link i am to fresh on this forum
but google "Nexus 5 Hangouts SMS messages are delayed" 1st on top
and "Unreliable texting" 2nd
If this is the problem with software why it started like few days ago before everything worked fine
---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------
Another post on androidcentral
google "Google Nexus 5 - Missed Calls, Anyone Else?"
And i am with T-Mobile by the way
I have zero issues on my N5 with Tmo, texts and calls come through right away. I've had many Android phones and have never had any issues.
Are you guys running any apps like Greenify or anything that is preventing the radio from waking the phone properly>
Having the same issue on different carriers with the same OS where all that they have in common is a Google account, I can see one app having an ill effect on the basic phone functionality.
Sprint does have a known delay with incoming calls, it's a CDMA thing they enable on their end, but it usually only adds a couple of seconds delay.
It happens to me and when it does I realize that the phone is locked onto LTE, when a call comes in it is supposed to switch to 1x. The fall back switching on the phone's software is probably the issue on Sprint.
having the same issues. had to reinsert the sim card. tmobile.
I turned off wifi and restart the phone two days ago so far no problem just not using wifi. Hope google will fix it soon
Did any one report it to google already ??
I had an issue with sms not sending until I would reboot phone. I was only able to fix by getting a new sim card. No issues since.
For the people with issues, are you using a lte compatible sim card, and have you tried resetting the device and using it without any 3rd party apps installed (absolutely none)?

Ive had my Smartwatch 2 for 3 months and it and my Samsung Galaxy S3 are running up to date software on Smart Connect and Smartwatch 2.
The problem I have is that because of the shape of my house (long and thin) when i'm at home my watch will often lose its bluetooth link with the phone and simply reconnect when I come back in to range. At least it does MOST of the time.
But randomly I get the message "Pairing with device will clear data from previously paired device". It then requires a reset on the watch and unpairing the watch and repairing on the phone.
There seems to be no logic to these "lock-ups". Sometimes I can go in and out of range once and it locks...sometimes I get no lock-ups all day. Sometimes i'm out of range for a few seconds, sometimes minutes. It seems as though something prevents the automatic repairing on some occassions and not others. And sometimes you have no idea the watch has failed to repair because that message sometimes also fails to appear.
Everything else about the watch I like...but this is driving me nuts.
Are there any rules to how the watch handles bluetooth. As nobody else on here seems to have mentioned this maybe its something i'm doing wrong.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I have the same phone and watch combo and mine connects back up again without any problems. Is your S3 rooted and if so, with which ROM? I am guessing your watch is on the latest firmware.
I am using a 4.1.2 ROM called BoneStock, but will flash one of the new 4.3 ROMs (now leaning towards MOAR TW 4.3).

Thankyou very much for your replies.
I am now more confused as it does seem there is some sort of problem with my set-up between the watch and my Samsung S3.
The firmware on the watch is up to date as is the Smart Connect app and the Smartwatch 2 app.
My S3 is running stock 4.1.2 (and not rooted) and I have no desire to update it with all the problems that might bring.
It doesn't seem as though there are any further settings on the watch I could try adjusting. There doesn't seem to be any further Bluetooth settings on my S3 but I would love to be corrected if i'm wrong.
Any ideas?
I have an S4 and mine has locked up and refused to reconnect again. the first few times i had to reset the watch to get it going again but i figured out how to fix it without having to reset.
if they are refusing to reconnect i just goto my phone and unpair the watch, then do a scan for bluetooth devices and it should find the watch ... pair and everything should be fine. no resets or uninstalls needed.

Thankyou for the suggestion. This will make the re-pairing process a little simpler and I will try it.
But I am hoping to work out why the phone and watch sometimes lock up when they they should reconnect automatically.
I go out of range often and lose the connection, it then often won't reconnect. I've found the fastest way to get it to reconnect is to turn the Bluetooth off on the watch and then back on again. As long as the smart connect app is running on the phone it will then reconnect, most of the time. This is using an s3 and omnirom.

I use a HTC One (4.3) and I´ve never experienced this problem.
I have been successfully using an S2 sport and then switched to a classic with no problems on either watch. I use a Nexus 6 running AICP, an LP ROM based on Cyanogenmod. Yesterday a totally new problem emerged: After the watch disconnects from Bluetooth and then reconnects it no longer will receive notifications of any kind from the phone. Note that I do not use WiFi connectivity, just Bluetooth. All other communication with the phone like weather or incoming phone notifications still work after a reconnection.
If I light reset the watch and then restore the data I will get all notifications again so everything is set correctly on the phone and the watch. I then tried the following steps to see if I could fix the problem:
Uninstalled/reinstalled all Gear apps from the phone with no change in behavior.
Factory reset the watch with no change in behavior.
Uninstalled/reinstalled all Gear apps from the phone and factory reset the watch with no change in behavior.
Turned the watch off/on with no change.
Went back to the last nightly build of my ROM that I know was working correctly with the same behavior.
I can't think of anything else to do to try and fix the problem, anybody have any other ideas?
I did discover that once the watch stops receiving notifications, I can just restore the data without doing the light reset to reestablish notifications. It will be really annoying once I get back to work because I routinely walk away from my phone and the watch becomes disconnected. Having to restore the phone data in order to receive notifications will be problematic.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Fred
Edited in 2015-12-21 - Solved Problem, Very Strange
So it turned out that the problem is that I switched the band to one of the nylon bands that loops under the watch (I like those because they are very light and indestructible). You would think the problem would be charging the watch with one of those bands that goes behind the watch but that was not a problem. However, something about the different stress pattern caused by the band on the watch case caused the watch to not accept notifications. Other communications worked fine and it would work if I reset the watch. When I did all the debugging described above I left the watch on my wrist.
However, just for a lark I took the band off today and everything worked as it should.
The original strap still work perfectly.
Go figure.
Fred
I may have a similar issue on my S2 with AT&T numbersync enabled (paired to a stock S5 active) where notifications stop appearing on the watch for apparently no reason. I have the sport watch with the stock band though. I've done a light reset twice so far. It might be related to the bluetooth reconnecting. I'll have to try it out a few times to see. Thanks for the info on doing restore data to get notifications working again. Much better than a light reset.
Although I've mostly had good luck getting things working between my Watch4 LTE (T-Mobile US) and my phone (Google Pixel 4a 5G, Android 12), I have not been able to get the "Remote Connection" feature working (Wearables app>Settings>Advanced Features>Remote connection). This means my watch does not get SMS, phone calls to my phone's paired phone number, or notifications unless they're connected via Bluetooth. SMS or calls to the watch's phone number go through ok on LTE. Firmware and apps are all fully updated, and I tried a couple of factory resets, still no luck so far. Has anyone else experienced this? It's made the LTE connection totally useless for me.

Well, I'm glad to hear it's working for someone - there's still hope for me! Not sure if T-mo or Samsung support will be better for this; might take one more crack at it on my own. Can't seem to find an obvious culprit - of course the "find my phone" feature works over the LTE network, just nothing else.
Hello, I am the same with a pixel 5
I had the same issue withy Pixel 5 my solution was I set my watch up on a my Samsung s10 with my SIM in Samsung s10 phone and watch and then set up the LTE all should be worked fine then factory reset on the watch but do not remove the LTE data it gives you the option to delete Sim mobile data it DO NOT DELETE IT then setup the watch on your pixel and it should be all fine Hope is short guide helps
I'm glad that worked! I ended up doing a factory reset on my phone (still on Android 12 Beta 4.1) without restoring from my backup and Remote Connection worked fine! Now waiting for my restore to complete and hoping it will continue to connect. I'll update the thread with my results when I'm finished with the restore operation.
Restored from my backup and went through watch setup in the Galaxy Wearables app, and it's all working. Not sure exactly what was keeping it from working before I reset my phone, but it's working reliably now..
Hmm.. Just to make sure.. so in theory, the Remote Connection should work via LTE as well? I am getting the small disconnected icon at the top whenever I am not on BT with my phone... just wondering if should I start to mess all around with this trying to figure out why it fails.
Yes, that's right - your watch should be able to connect via wifi/LTE when the out of bluetooth range. I couldn't get mine to work after multiple watch factory resets, but a phone factory reset worked (maybe clearing the phone's cache would have worked, didn't try it). Now it works reliably and I can finally leave my phone at home and still get all my notifications on the watch.
Can you please verify that the remote connection is working on the LTE version of the watch for messages and CALLS too.
I am asking because in the past i had a active 2 Watch and i was so excited with the remote connection. Which i decided to buy the LTE version and with a cheap data plan only , i will be able to use the watch stand alone. Unfortunately to the LTE version of the watch the remote connection was supported only for messages and not for calls.
