Title basically says it all for some odd reason all of a sudden my service completely drops while downloading large files (roms)....I've tried flashing three different roms and it's still doing it every time I try to download something new...I've done all the wipes and everything but no luck..anyone else with this problem?
Only thing left to test is your internet connection wifi or 3G, do some speed tests (speedtest.net app in the market), check your monthly quota/limit, reset your router if it's wifi or move to a different location if its 3G and see if that helps.

Idk...I sbf'ed and started over...no problems since lol...all that addictive flashing there's no telling what it was thanks tho...

how long can you browse or stream on 3g before the connection dies when you have full signal?
I'm getting three or four pages, then I have to enable airplane mode to reset the connection. actual speed is great, and signal strength good, but connection time is never over five minutes. does froyo contribute to this?
i'm using the default (no root, nothing special) froyo with the included radio on a stock non-root n1.
So far, I don't see an upper limit on how long my connection will last. It has never cut out on me. So I say I can load an infinite amount of pages before it cuts out...
What Radio/Software are you using?
I'm on stock rom, stock browser on Fido. Latest Radio.

i should have input my current config... updating original post
it doesn't matter if i use the default browser, or dolphin, or any other application. after 4-5 views/pages/whatever it will end up with a non working connection. it appears that the is UP travel, for 30 seconds to a minute or more, but no DOWN travel at all. during this time pages will disply "No Connection at this time, try again later" or a similar message.
I'm using my n1 on tmobile, with 3-4 bars of 3G coverage, while stationary. doesn't seem to matter if i'm on a tower i usually use @ my home, or at work, or where. it's a pretty consistant failure of traffic.
I can go hours. In fact I've never had this issue I've read about.
It sounds like you've eliminated all other options. i.e. does the same thing no matter where you are or what the signal strength is.
Which normally should mean it is on your end. Do you have any apps installed that could interfere? Maybe some data transfer meter, or some apps that are auto syncing?
Ive had this same problem no matter what rom or radio im using. My phone shows a 3g connection with full signal but pages wont load.

none nope
hmmm
My connection could get stuck some times, but that was before I updated to Froyo. What would happen was that it would seem to be constantly uploading and I couldn't use the connection for anything so I had to go airplane-mode and back.
Don't really know what the issue you have is though, especially since mine went away with Froyo. I've been browsing for _long_ periods of time after I got Froyo without any issues so...
Hi guys, got the i-9000 from Carphone Warehouse here in the UK about a month ago. Tried to flash JM8 on it without disabling OCLF so needless to say that bricked it (3BC was not enabled).
Sent it in for repairs, got it back a week ago and it's been one problem after another..First I experienced the "ghost downloads" from the Market and I got around those by constantly cleaning cache and data for Download Manager.
Then I noticed that I could not use the mobile internet almost 90% of the time. I mean I tried standing still, from a moving car, from tens of different areas and I basically can't access anything on the 3G network except for an occasional "burst" that makes it work for a few seconds. It just flips back and forth between 3G and H, looks like it's sending and receiving data for a couple of seconds then it just hangs and after a few seconds I get a "cannot display/connect" error in the browser or whatever other program I'm using that needs internet access.
So I thought Samsung must've borked the flashing. I went ahead and fixed my 3BC issue, reset it to factory default, formatted cache and flashed it with PDA JM8, MODEM JM4, CSC OXAJM1 hoping that would fix it. Well, it did fix the Market issues, downloads are now working properly and consistently. However, mobile internet is still borked..the only reliable way to use it is if it switches to G (GPRS)..I mean it's slow as hell but at least it's working..
Is there any setting I can tweak/change in order to make it work a little better or is the Orange 3G network totally crap out here?
P.S. I live around Bradford, UK. I'm on a dolphin 30 plan with included 500MB internet access.

Basically same phone from same company on the same network. Upgraded to Froyo using Kie hack early October and phone running fine without a lag fix and reception /3g working good (in London). If you haven't already done it, get my orange app from market and when you open it you will see option to use T Mobile network. With Orange and TMobile joining you can jump between networks whichever is stronger where you are. You will also need to ensure your network is set to auto and roaming is on.
See if that helps.

I run CM7 nightlies on my Tmobile N1. Recently I killed my cable Internet/TV connection at home and have been using the built in WiFi tether for my home devices.
While it typically works great (for free), the data on my N1 will lock up. I have full 3G/HSDPA at my house. Using #*#*4636*#*# it states I am connected but fails to ping or load up any data on the phone or through its shared connection.
The only way to fix the problem is to toggle airplane mode and re-enable the WiFi Tether or sometimes a reset is required.
I've changed to several Gingerbread roms, flashed various radios, and even exchanged SIM cards.
Is this behavior normal or not? For regular web surfing I can live with it, but the main problem is that I cannot download anything without it getting interrupted (like updated nightlies or 50mb+ files).

No one has any problems with their WiFi sharing?
i used my phones internet as my regular home internet for a month. i used up about 25 gigs. i streamed videos, downloaded videos and podcasts with no interruptions. don't know what your problem could be. i was using cyan 6.1.1
I occasionally have experienced that issue, but it seems as if you have it much more frequently than I ever did. I would mainly get it when I tethered from areas with bad reception.
You state that you have full 3G/HSPA at your house. I am wondering how many bars of reception you happen to have. Also, try setting your phone to WCDMA Only in that 4636 menu. That seemed to decrease the frequency at which it happened for me.
I also found that once in a while, I could get tethered data working again by simply using the phone's native web browser to access any data. Good luck with the issue.

I typically have full bars of signal usually reading around -100dbm. When the internet drops, it drops completely; maps, browser, apps, etc all fail and I can't "jump start" it other then toggling airplane mode or resetting the phone. Typically a reset is best.
Perhaps I'll flash back to CM 6.1 and test it over the weekend. I'll do a backup of my current setup if things aren't fixed.
The purpose of this thread was simply to see if others have experienced the same issues and if it was worth "trying" to fix.
It might be a case of overheating device - it'll be good to test different ROMs and kernels.
I don't think the device is over heating at all rather then just a carrier issue. I flashed to CM 6.1.1 over the weekend and immediately found I was still having data issues (where it would work for like 5 minutes then drop out).
I did find that EDGE was a solid connection and stayed connected while I downloaded CM7 and GAPPS. I put a call into Tmobile and yacked at them for several hours. They escalated it up several times in their engineering department and so we'll see. I spoke to HTC a few times in there and they didn't think it was a handset problem either.
I guess we can close this thread as it doesn't seem to be a wide spread problem. I am running a stable version of CM7 now and we'll see.
@above: I have tested different radios, roms, and kernels. This thread started out as a issue with WiFi Tethering but ended up being the phone simply dropping its data connection. I originally was curious if this wifi sharing behavior was normal or not.

+1 for this part..
Sent from my Nexus One
the weirdest thing happened to me, my phpne was working fine, i flashed fearkill fr13 after a full wipe coming from fr12 mcr.
It worked well for a couple of hours and all of the sudden i cant connect to my network. The only way it connects is by enabling 2g networks only and even like that i cant make any calls. I have even tried reinstalling the baseband 405 and nothing works...
My network is fine by the way, its just my phone
Please help me!!
Edit:
A little more info:
I tried a different sim card with the same results
Whenever i try to search for a network it just stays thinking for a while and does nothing
When I try to do it automatically it says it cannot connect to the network at this time immediately...
I managed to make a call on 2g networks only but as soon as i remove the check i cant connect
Edit 2:
Woooooow, this just gets weirder by the second!!
I can connect to the internet with wifi disabled and a clear X on the network as in no network connection... I can browse the internet just fine, NO CALLS though
... after countless Wipes and installing plenty of roms With no luck i gave up and as soon as i Woke up it Was Working again... strange but im happy
Guess it was your network after all
maybe, i had a blackberry beside it with a working 3g connection :S
And no idea how to explain 3g working with no bars and an x on it haha
O have problems with my network connection too.
In some rooms at my house I can get 3G access and in another room only EDGE.
Several times per day I can't get access to the network anyway. The only way to solve the probölem is to restart the phone.
Sometimes my phone tells me it is connected but there is no data transfer for several hours. I noticed that when I got home and many emails from the last hours appeared after being connected to my wifi.
I'm using the MCR but I've also tried the ROM from romkitchen-org. Changing the baseband had no effect.
I'll have a try with the stock ROM. If this would fail too I'll send my phone back to the dealer. I think it could also be an hardware defect.

Ok first of all up until today my phone has been running JPY with no problems.
Now today i can use the stock browser to browse the internet but its very slow, If i use opera mobile like i have for the past few months i cant connect to any pages as it times out saying "connect to server".
Sometimes the market works sometimes it dont and its just took nearly 10 mins to download a 2mb app.
Now i have reflashed JPY using odin and still have the same problem, i have also tried a sim card from my other phone and it does the same with that so can only be the phone, I have hard reset the phone and still nothing.
Any ideas?
Also cant even download email unless i use wifi then everything is fine, Checked apn settings and they are all ok
Is it possible that the problem is caused by your service provider?

99.9% sure its nothing to do with that as my other phone on the same network works fine, as does my sim in my other phone, im certain its something to do with the phone.
I'm having this issue too.
Data only actually "works" about 1/3rd of the time, it connects as "H" (HSDPA) and occasionally drops to "3G", but doesn't consistently work.
I've tried disabling HSDPA and I get the same issues.
I've seen reports of other people with similar data issues on Gingerbread...
I don't want to go back to Froyo, but will if I can't get data working more consistently...
