Trying to figure out what is causing all the pictures in my gallary to be deleted when Media Scanner is Running. At least I think it is media scanner, but every time my phone is reset, all my photo's are deleted. Any ideas?
I am also having issues where I have 3-4 bars of 3g, but have no connection at all. No internet works, no market or anything. Will come and go. AT&T using Seredipity 7.
Are you saying that they disappear and reappear while it is running, or disappear entirely? The media scanner is what puts the pictures in the gallery, so I guess it would make sense that they were unavailable while it was running (although to be honest, I don't know that I've ever checked to see if this was indeed the case).
As far as your connection being wonky, what area of the country are you in? I've had intermittent connection issues as well that I'm beginning to think aren't on my end.
as in deleted..as in not even a file on my phone anymore. as far as connection, I am in the US, and this intermittent thing just started recently even though I have 4 bars. Its not the at&t 5% thing either.

For the service issue, I am in the US as well (NH) and have been having intermittent issues as well just as you have described (full bars, active data connection, active connection to google, but nothing actually works). It seems to be better today than the past week, but it could be mostly in my head. AT&T is very inconsistent up here (and probably everywhere else as well) so sometimes it's hard to tell.
As far as the media scanner goes, I dunno. You could try deleting the data for Media Storage (that's where media scanner stores it's data, it will repopulate automatically), but I don't know why that would make it delete files from your SD card.

What ROM are you running?
serendipity 7. Been on the phone since I got it, never had this issue before. Kind of just noticed when all my photos were gone. Went into files and weren't there. Thought was strange..then took a camera pic today, and when I had the connection issues, I restarted it..and deleted. Tested again..took pic, restarted phone, deleted.
any other ideas? still happening :/
Is your SD card corrupt? If you're saving to an external SD, have you tried saving it to the internal one and seeing if they stay put?
I am not using an external SD Card.

Has anyone else noticed their DROID 4 dropping data connectivity seemingly randomly and requiring a reboot to pick it back up? I know that I am...and I'm wondering if Motorola can't make it hang onto a data connection how hash is ever going to mmake it work right.
I haven't had any issues with data at all... LTE/3G handoffs work perfectly and everything ...And no worries, I am confident the data issues will be sorted out on the ics builds!
I have them issues. If connected via wifi no problem. But still wont be connected to the network. Requires a reboot to aquire network back

Are you running on a rooted DROID 4 with safe strap installed? Just trying to narrow down the possibilities.
For the record.
Rooted and safestrap installed running stick

Rooted stock, no safestrap.
Though I doubt safestrap is causing data issues, or fixing them for that matter.
While I do plan on flashing some custom ROMs at some point, I have to admit that I'm very happy with the stock rom. Performance is very good, smart actions are actually pretty great (though there are of course 3rd party apps that do the same thing), and the camera app works pretty well.
My only complaint are the window transitions, blech. Yea, you can disable them, but then all the eye candy goes away completely! Ah Moto, why no middle ground?
I have had data connection issues on all the ICS ROMs but data on stock has been pretty solid.
Did you just port your number from another carrier to verizon? I had the same issue plus some and called verizon and they fixed it on their end. Hope this helps.

I had a few problems with my data just going out for a few minutes on the stock rom. I would be browsing the web, and then a page would just not load. I noticed my signal indicator was grey and not blue, and thus I wasn't getting a data connection. I just waited a few minutes and it came back up.
I never really though too much into it because I expect these small things to happen on such a big wireless network.

This is exactly what happens to me. It almost seems like a session timing out and renewing but I don't have a clue how the LTE network works.
Had the same data issue.. went to Verizon store and got a new SIM card (free) and problems cleared right up. Evidently the old SIM card did not get activated properly in their system.
I'm also having connection problems from time to time. I'm in a 3G only area. I'm running a stock non-rooted phone. Usually, I can get the connection back with a reboot. It's still a pain in the ass, I shouldn't have to deal with. I've called Verizon a few times. Its like talking to a wall with them. They act like you are the dumbest person in the world. Hopefully the next update can clear this problem.

After dealing with this problem for over 2 months I finally found an answer.
I have had this problem since day 2 and after getting the run around several times at the Verizon store (They claimed it was because they were upgrading to LTE in the area, which they said we'd have within 1 month over 2 months ago) they told me there was nothing they could do and suggested I call tech support (I don't know why I didn't think of that). I called tech support and talked to a very helpful woman, after describing my problem to her she asked me what phone I had, she knew the issue right after I told her it was the Droid 4. She told me it was a well known issue with the Droid 4 and that they expect a patch to be released at the end of the month (July) that would address the problem. She said that some people have had temporary success with toggling airplane mode (this has never worked for me but rebooting a few times does) and that having WiFi on, even when your not connected, can knock your data connection out (I have been able to reproduce this once so far).
So that's it. Keep your WiFi off when you don't need it, reboot when you have problems, and hopefully it will be fixed at the end of July.
I'm very disappointed with my Verizon store. Some of the employees I talked to owned a Droid 4 themselves and said they had the same problem and still claimed it was tower work. Either they were misinformed, stupid, or they were lying to me (who wants to buy a broken phone).
My Droid 4 does this in 4G mode. I've read that it's due to the nature of SIM cards. The network constantly vets and authorizes the card's access. If this vetting fails, you get the "white out", as I call it. It might clear up on the next pass, or you might have to reboot. My "solution" is to keep it in 3G mode. As for getting a fix at the end of the month, I'm not holding my breath, as I've read that that's VZW's standard response to just get the customer to shut up and go away.
I've been having the data dropping issue as well for the past few weeks. Running stock GB, rooted with safe strap, but have yet to flash a custom ROM. I thought the issue might be because I'm on a legacy Alltel plan with PRL 14012, which is way outdated...
Well, today I believe I finally found the source of what was causing the issue for me personally, from an unexpected source...Flipboard.
I've found myself glancing at it a bunch at red lights when I'm driving, or sitting in a waiting room, etc. Today I was driving though, and noted towards the end of my trip that this was the first time in weeks the phone hadn't once lost it's data connection for the entire drive. After reflecting for a moment on what, if anything, was different about this excursion, the only thing I could come up with is that I hadn't used Flipboard since I left the house. Even though my initial reaction was to seriously doubt a respectable app like that could cause such an issue, I had nothing else to go on. So, for the hell of it, I picked up my phone and fired up Flipboard...
Within 5-10 seconds of clicking it...BAM...gray 4g icon and no data would load. Needless to say, I uninstalled Flip**** right away...then reinstalled so I could comment on it in the market, then uninstalled again, and haven't dropped data at all in the last several hours. I also took note that a guy with a Droid Razr Maxx left a comment complaining that Flipboard was actually causing random reboots for him.
I don't know if any of you have Flip**** installed, or why you're having similar data issues, but if any of you do happen to have it installed, try uninstalling from the phone...not the market. Then, turn your phone off, pull out the SD card and SIM for a moment or so, put them back in, power up the device, and see if that might possibly help alleviate the constant data dropping. If I find I start dropping data again, without Flipboard installed, I'll update this post. Good luck.
No Flipboard on my phone. I'm glad you found an answer to your problem though.
Tappin' and talkin' with Tapatalk.
I've been having problems since Verizon turned on 4G LTE in my area. Once a day I have to remove my SIM card. If I don't, the 4G is very unreliable. Could it be a bad SIM card? Or maybe the fact that they just activated it here and they're working out the bugs? Anyone have any ideas?
I also forgot to mention, I've got a Motorola XOOM 4G LTE And have had not one single connection problem since 4G went live in my area.

I just have the data connection issue when ever i flip on wifi then disable it .. a reboot is required for data to work again regardless if i force 3g or if i am trying to use lte.. guessing it is a software bug.. i never seem to have a connection issue if wifi wasnt used prior.

I know this thread and comment are old, but if you use Spare Parts, you can change the Window Transition speed to Fast and then your phone seems much faster/smoother. Don't mess with Window Animation speed if you want to keep th TV-like power off blip.

I don't have Flipboard, however I noticed connection issues within 12 hours of getting my phone. At the time it was stock GB. I took it back to the store, he called tech support. Between the 2 of them, my phone was hard reset, the SD and SIM cards were pulled and the phone rebooted, they fiddled with settings, tech support tried to turn on data from their end, nothing worked. I noticed I lost my data connection when the Smart Action for battery saver clicked on. It was like it got stuck and the phone couldn't turn on data anymore. I did a factory reboot, and got data back. I turned on that first smart action, lost data connection again, it wouldn't turn back on. So I did another factory reboot, disabled that "Smart" Action, and been ok since then. I do still loose my connection, but I am able to get it back if I turn wifi on. Not sure why, but it works most of the time. Some days I still have data if I turn my wifi off, other days i have to leave wifi on if I want to use my 4g. I have my phone rooted, running GB and loving Spirit FM..(Having FM radio was the only reason why I rooted my phone..can't live without my FM!!) Is there anything I can do to get my data connection to stay on?
BTW an OTA update has occured for GB, but it doesn't seem to have fixed the problem.
Hi, I wonder if anybody can help me. Up until the day before yesterday I was using whatsapp fine over wifi (where I am at the moment there is no mobile signal) on my O2 UK Z1 and then whatsapp lost all connection. Everything else on the phone was working fine but no whatsapp. Every message I sent would go to the clock, no information when people were last online and the faq etc. in the settings would not load because of lack of connection.
I uninstalled the app and then installed it again and all was fine, after sending a few messages the same error occurred again. I have now found that if I clear data in the app settings it will connect again, once I have reconfigured the app and restored from backup. I can only assume that there is some sort of buffer which I am clearing as I lose a few messages when I clear data (all since last backup).
Barring doing a delete of all backups and messages does anyone have any other idea. I have looked and the backup files are about 1.7mb so not massive and I have a fair bit of storage available onboard (>7gb).
I was talking to someone with a HTC phone who had suffered similar symptoms but I have googled and searched and can't find a solution.
Any help much appreciated.
Mark
2 weeks off work and no issues, as soon as I have returned the issue has reared it's head so looks like it's something to do with the wifi here. Everything else works fine and fast so I guess I'll just have to live with it

A factory reset for a cheap Whazz, huge work buddy...lol... at last it's an idea but I will try reinstall mobile settings before that or uninstall and reinstall Whatsup.
I work in a very remote location, I have wifi (which is distributed from a satellite feed) out here and for my mobile phone that is the only connection option. When I am away from work whatsapp always works, both over wifi and cellular data. At work I keep my phone in aeroplane mode with wifi turned on to try and preserve some battery (there is no point in my phone constantly looking for a non existent cellular signal).
This morning I deleted all messages in whatsapp, uninstalled the app and re-installed/configured. Usually I get a failure within 24 hours of doing this so we'll see whether this rectifies the issue.
I know I'm not the only person out here that has had the issue so it is either a coincidence or something with the way the wifi is configured here. I just assumed that the wifi would either work or not but, I am not an expert.
Hi everyone,
I really hope you can help me with this.
I usually listen to music using Spotify / Soundcloud and other music streaming apps. Until a week ago everything was fine.
Now, it's already 5 days I can't listen to music on these apps, everything's running fine but when I press play it seems it loads really slow, I can't even see the cover arts. It's like downloading at a really low speed, such as EDGE, but I'm 100% on 3G.
It's not something related with my operator neither with an app in particular, because the strange thing is internet works very smoothly in other apps, it's only happening when streaming on cellular data. Of course the same happens with video streaming using Twitch, Netflix and so on...
I tried rebooting, disabling/re-enabling cellular data/wi-fi. I didn't try a phone reset, should i give it a try?
Thanks in advance.

My first suggestion would be:
1. Insert your sim in to your wife's/friends smartphone and check if the issue is appearing, just to make sure it is nothing to do with operators bandwidth limitation.
2. Insert your wife's/friends sim in to your phone and check the same, to make sure it is really your phones issue.
If it is your phones fault, the first option would be to clear cache of problematic apps. Secondary option - factory reset. Third option - reflash modem/baseband. Forth option - wait for lollipop and hope it will fix it.
Good luck.

It's not the operator. None of the people I know have issues with the same operator, and there are a lot around me.
I tried a reset, seems to be working better but still not working, it's a little bit faster but not in any helpful way.
How can I reflash the modem?
For many months now I have had an issue with the data speed or lack of on my phone, it is there but the only thing that really works are programs that do not have timeout settings setup it seems such as syncing etc.... but things like a web browser will simply not load a page nor can I use speedtest to test the speed as it cannot even locate a site to test with.
Let me step back a bit, I got a HTC One(M7) after having a htc one X and used the same sim card. I found out that I could get LTE data if I updated my sim card, so I did that and at the time I had about a 18mb connection speed and was quite happy. A few months later I started getting the symptoms I explained above and have not disappeared. I have called many times to the customer support and they would reset something on their end and it would work temporarily but would go back quickly and by work I mean I would get like 3mb down instead of like .1.
On my latest call, the rep said, it seems to be down to 2 things, your phone or sim card so they sent me a new sim card, it is now installed and well, the same thing is happening, yeah!
In the past I have tried a different rom to see if that was it and that did not seem to resolve it either.
I am currently running
Viper 7.0.2, everything stock
has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions on what to try? I am close to throwing the phone in the ocean
A couple of weird things to note that seems to point this to the phones problem is that some things work ok like pandora could stream, it may take a while to buffer up, but it plays and things like the facebook will load the text, most times it takes some considerable time to load images but it is still working for the most part. Google maps works just fine and is able to pinpoint my location and many other things but Web browsing on the other hand simply doesn't load pages.
So it weird how it is selective in what will work and what won't for example, the FB chat works in loading text, images are slow to load and searching for images is really hit or miss, mainly miss.
Anyways ideas out there, maybe clear cache of something or what?

APN settings are correct and I would think if my APN settings were not correct, nothing would work.
Basically my symptoms are that a lot of programs that require a good amount of data do not work, ie Pandora takes minutes to maybe load a song, sometimes it can't connect and moves to another song and that one works. Netflix definitely will not work, hulu etc.... these apps simple try forever to connect and never do.
I tested the standard browser, tried to load a page.... nothing, cleared cache and history and immediately tried again and boom the page came up. Within seconds it was back to not loading.
First things first, I'm extremely savvy in Android / cell info.
As the title says, anytime I load up something that uses GPS, it turns on the GPS, and cycles the cellular radio. I've tried QPST, factory image flashing, radio flashing, reset AGPS, downloaded new AGPS. Tried every GPS Tools app there is. Calibrated GPS.
If I disable GPS, and only use Data for location, it does not do this.
I've noticed that the APN table gets corrupted sometimes. Doing a reset to default restores all APNs, but adding the APN manually does not activate Data (even though the info is correct).
If I set the Preferred Network Type to LTE Only, and run GPS Status, it will eventually lock GPS location, and keep data active (after cycling the radio off and on), but then after a few minutes, it goes back to LTE, GSM, CDMA preferred, and I'm back at square one. Also, going into Cellular Networks (in Android Settings), and forcing 3G without LTE does the same. My best result seems to be leaving it on 3G in this menus, going into the *#*#INFO#*#*, and then setting it to LTE Only. But again, eventually it reverts, and/or if GPS is turned off at any point, then the cycle has to be started again. This only works for like 15 minutes at a time, so this is not reliable.
Due to this, I can't use any Maps, or even run Speedtests, since it tries to get your location first, and then do the test.
Obviously Pokemon Go is fudged up.
I have spent the last 3 days and nights fighting with my phone, flashing ****, modifying, restoring... I am so frustrated I have actually begun to fling and throw my phone around (very very harshly).
Failing this, I will break it in half, but I can't do that until I have my Note 7...
Please help. I know it sounds crazy, because GPS should not affect the data connection, let alone the ENTIRE cellular radio.
I'm thinking of wiping the EFS partition, but the only backup I have of EFS is from after this whole ordeal started.
IMEI is intact, I can see it with *#06#.
It is worth noting, this all started by Maps locking up (or I suppose the GPS getting messed up and crashing Maps). After I reboot the phone, GPS and Data still worked, but my location was stuck at the same spot, even though I had driven miles and miles away.
Trying to be as thorough as possible to try and get whatever help I can get. Would any debug logs help anyone at all? If so, which.
Thanks in advance!!
Best thing I can recommend, is get on Google Maps, put in somewhere to go... Let it lock GPS. Then go use your app. The problem is only with turning ON the gps... once it's on, and doesn't turn off, you are good to go. Can even play pokemon go. Obviously your batter will be **** but meh... 22000 mAH battery pack.

Well then were not doing something right. There's no reason for our phones to all of a sudden break themselves and no one else to also be doing this. I'll see if I can talk to some of the devs to see if there is any possibility as to something it could be
There's a thread in Q&A, but the short version is that it's a known issue affecting Nexus 6 almost exclusively on carriers worldwide. I haven't found any full workaround. Freezing Google Connectivity Services helps quite a bit, I got about 10 hours out of the data connection that way. But GPS eventually screws it up. Disabling location services is the best option for me right now, I need data more than location.
Google has acknowledged the issue, as has t-mobile. They claim to be working on it. No one knows how long that might take.

Lol dude calm down. This is the first I've heard it of it, so my bad, besides the fact that this is the kind of stuff were bound to run into with the stuff we do.

Think about how strange this legitimately is. All to a sudden, nexus 6 owners are having dropped data with GPS. Not just ones who've accepted an update, not just ones who have rooted and installed custom OS's, just those of us who own nexus 6s'. Its strange, but it makes me think that its a bug within one of their application, possibly connectivity services. I wonder if its all to a sudden appearing because they're editing code to get ready for android n

Nothing against you... I'm just flustered that I've spent countless hours trying to fix a problem that had nothing to do with me.
The legitimacy is real... But this was a hidden update pushed by Google. I initially thought it was me, then TMO. But its the phone/google/motorola. Just angry of all the time I've wasted.
Download GPS Locker, let it get a lock on. And just don't turn off GPS. The issue only happens when GPS is enabled/activated/awoken. Just leave it on 24/7 and that's all.

But if its a hidden update how is it effecting those of us who haven't updated a ROM or anything since before august. Is that when this started for you?

i disabled modify system settings permission of google connectivity services and also i activated xposed mobile radio active fix. Now i still have gps at high accuracy ( says sometimes gps signal not found ) but still have working data and GPS at the same time.
I don't know if this could help but I had the same problem, it happened after I updated connectivity service couple days ago so I uninstalled the updates and after I did that it didn't happened again cellular radio and GPS are back to normal.
Sorry for the bad grammar
I, too have had this problem for 4 days now. I just changed location accuracy to battery saving mode (no GPS) and when I access the application that always killed LTE it remained on. I'm hoping this setting works long term (i.e., for more than a few hours).
I am having a similar issue since the last 3-4 days. My stock T-Mobile Nexus 6 (never rooted or flashed any custom ROM or anything ever) is losing data connection for long periods. It started 3-4 days ago when I, coincidentally or not, installed UBER for the very first time. I really don't know if its a GPS issue or some other hardware issue or Android OS issue. I did a Factory Reset today and it appeared to be fine at first BUT then again the issue started, this time without UBER but when I installed the STARBUCKS application. So again , I am not sure what the issue is. But my cellular radio is losing connectivity like anything.

I fixed this by uninstalling Google connection service updates. And then also going into the settings and granting location permission. Let's see how long it works for!
The updated connection services did not have an option for permissions.
This worldwide issue seems to be fixed now.

Did you find any news about it? What was causing the problem etc etc
Running the DP5 beta and somewhat affected like everyone else, but unlike some folks here I have never needed to reboot my phone. I lose all connection few times a day but it takes roughly 10-20 seconds and LTE comes back alive. Guess I'm lucky.
