so i listen to music on my N1 on the train on the way to work.
when i go into the tunnels and lose reception the phone hangs and reboots- but not a full reboot with the nexus X and then boot animation, jst plays the boot animation and then asks for SIM PIN.
if i DONT have the music playing- the phone loses reception and continues to work then picks up signal again fine..
if i DONT have the music playing then lose reception THEN play music while no signal, the phone is fine.
any ideas/suggestions?

Does anyone else out there have Slingplayer installed on their Captivate? They don't offer any trial version so I shelled out $30 for this piece of software and I can't get it to work. It works fine over WiFi at home, but it won't work right over 3G. I originally posted this issue in the Slingbox forums but I thought I'd repost here since XDA members tend to actually know something about cell phones/technology.
Here is my original post on Slingbox forums: http://answers.slingbox.com/message/13962#13962
Here is the issue:
When I try to play video over 3G it stops after a second or two and plays choppy after that (and I don't mean a little choppy, I mean like audio will come back for a second every minute or two). It used to work fine on my old phones but just to test it, I put my sim card back in my old Tilt 2 and tried out SlingPlayer. I was able to get a steady stream with decent quality and no cut outs. I also went to mobilespeedtest.com and did a 2MB test with my Tilt 2 and got around 1300KBPS. Then, I put the sim back in my Captivate and tried to watch from the exact same spot. It played for the first 2 seconds then the video stopped. The menus still worked so the program wasn't hung or anything, the stream just stopped coming in. I then exited SlingPlayer and loaded up mobilespeedtest.com on my Captivate. On the 2MB test, I got aprox 3500KBPS. Almost 3 times the bandwidth of my Tilt 2 and I coudln't watch the stream at all.
Since the video worked on my Tilt 2, it can't be an issue with my slingbox and router setup at home. Also, my Captivate gets faster download speeds so it can't be an issue related to bandwidth.
It works fine over WiFi when I'm at home, but it refuses to work over 3G. I also got poor results over WiFi from a location outside my home. Seems like it has trouble with going to an external IP address? Again, my slingbox works fine on my other phone and on computers that are outside my network so it can't be a slingbox/router configuration issue. The only device with trouble is the Captivate. Since the slingplayer mobile software got 4.5 stars in the marketplace, I'd imagine its working good on other phones and the issue is with the Captivate/Galaxy S phones. Thoughts?
I have sling player on my captivate and it streams fine over the 3g network. Sometimes it does cut out but thats only when I have really crappy 3g coverage. I wish I had some advice for ya, but I just wanted to write and let you know that it's working great for me over 3g. So the program does work on the captivate without issues. I'm wondering what the issue could be.
Thanks for your reply. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Slingplayer. It still gives me trouble over 3g, regardless of signal strength. Basically, when I turn on SlingPlayer it will stream just fine if I have good 3g signal. But once I change channels, it looses the video stream. I can still hear the audio, but the video freezes and won't comeback until I disconnect and reconnect. Are you able to change channels without issue?
i have sling player working fine on my euro i9000 and it works fine over 3g as long as you have good signal.. i have a feeling that yours is not working well because of at&t limiting the 3g upload speed which also affects downlolad..

I have at&t and it work fine for me also. I guess the only thing i can say is make sure you don't have other stuff in the background working or taking up data
I have it as well.. I have AT&T and zero issues with 3g or wifi... works great.. sometimes it chops up when i first start it but for like 3 seconds then fine.
I also have the Slinglayer working without a problem.
I have a question. Is it normal that when I have turned on 3G, I can hear very quiet 'buzzing' from front speaker, especially when some data is retrieved? When I switch to 2G it stops, and starts again after switching 3G. I can hear it even with screen off. Has anyone noticed a similar thing? Or it's only my 'problem'?
I have been a proud owner of Xperia Z for over a month now. I switched from iPhone 4s to XZ and the experience has been splendid! During this time, I have noticed these problems-
1. When call ends, the dialer makes a very loud beep sound. I love the dialer but this beep sound is a major irritation esp. if call ends before I can pull phone away from my ears which happens more often than I can stand such a loud deep!
2. For unknown reason my XZ keeps losing Data connectivity in between. I have seen this happen when Wifi is on, which I thought could be due to "wifi policy" but when I am outside with no wifi, I keep losing the Data. The network connection is good. It's just the data. Only way to get it back is - turn on airplane mode - lock phone - unlock phone - turn off air plane mode.
I have researched XDA forums but no resolution on above problems yet. Please share your findings. :fingers-crossed:
No responses I looked at threads for network data connection issues but none have reported problem like mine. The tones when phone connects and disconnects a call are the most difficult to work with :silly:

Bro, it looks difficult to get rid of that beep unless u get root access but it's not a prob.. It's just an indication when call is disconnected..

Try using the dual mode with cdma preferred option, trust me nothing wrong with the device just change ur network operator.....
Do you know what steps I can take to remove loud beep sound if I get rooted? I had tried but no luck.

This same SIM and network stayed connected on my iPhone 4s. I never had this problem with iPhone 4s. On the other hand, the first time I take my XZ on ride while using GPS and it losses connection right in middle transit which is in main city. The constant dropping of 3g connection makes it completely unreliable.

The call-ended beep doesn't always sound when I close a call, in my case. What's the cause? I have root, as always.
any idea how to get rid of this beep

I recently updated to Kit Kat and flashed latest firmware and radio. I'm having a problem where data seems to freeze and won't connect at times. I can see the 3G data up and down arrows trying to connect, but it just never makes a connection. I can go into airplane mode and then back to service and it connects right away, usually to LTE, so I'm thinking it has something to do with the switch from 3G to LTE. Super frustrating as I drive around the city a lot for work and sometimes data freezes for 15 minutes or more. Anyone having similar issues?
ROM: SuperOneK
Firmware: 4.06.651.4
Radio: 1.00.20.1108

Same - Stuck on 3G for Data
I am having similar issue. I think it does have something to do with switching to LTE. My device now only really works with 3G. whenver i'm connected to lte no data is transfered but it says im connected and says data is transfering. I 've unfortunately resolved to just using 3G only. It's pretty sad. I went from a healthy use of data on 4G to barely using it. i think i had a few hundred KB this month. Any thoughts on how to fix this?
I also have this issue, it has been more and more prevalent lately. The phone will be working fine on 3G, then data freezes as it switches to 4G, maybe resumes for a split second, then switches back to 3G. Sometimes 3G doesn't even work then, sometimes it keeps looping between the two. It's ridiculously frustrating to be streaming music while driving and it just stops because it can't figure out which mode to be in.
So for the past few days when I use Pandora or stream podcasts my phone I'll reboot randomly if the signal gets low or if I go from a WiFi area to 4g.
I've cleared cache and fixed permisions and it didn't help.
I haven't installed anything new to cause an issue.
Any suggestions???
