Lost data on ics leak 6.7.2233 - Motorola Droid Bionic

I have been on the 6.7.2233 leak since it showed up on XDA. Last night, i list my data (wifi still functioning properly). I've tried toggling on and off in settings, reboots, and battery pulls. Anything else i can try? In settings, shows signal strength 1x=-71 dBm
3g=-63 dBm

Problem fixed. Downloaded phone info app, switched to a couple different things, then back to where it started, and poof... Back to normal. I'm not sure if that fixed it, or if there was something else that started working, but either way, problem is fixed

Data drop??

I'm running serendipity 6.4
Lately my data just randomly stops working. for a while I was turning data off in the extended power menu after browsing or sending mms or using the market. The last few days ive been keeping it on when I'm not using it. it will say it is on on the notification bar but wont receive any data. If i reboot with data enabled it will fix itself but then I get the amazon market error in some apps saying that I have to reinstall the app. Sound like my ip its getting changed our something? What the bleep is going on here?

Swap modems?
I have been seeing this as well. The only time I see it is when I am at work.
I stream Pandora as well as use IM+ alll day at work. Pandora has no issues as it caches data, but I see my IM+ connection resetting every so often. Also occassionally when attempting to access the internet the site will be initially unavailable.
I have tried several modems all with the same result, messed around with my band settings and even reflashed my ROM clearing all caches.
I have been watching for someone else with the same issue. This is the first post I have seen addressing it.
in addition to my data dropping it also happens with my service, seemingly around the same time if not in unison.
To the above poster: are you running serendipity 6.4 on a captivate?
Note: I had been running serendipity 5.x and switched to phoenix ultimate to test it. Had a bunch of problems with it so i switched back to serendipity. my phone hasn't been the same since. Weird random problems like this. I've odin master cleared and reflashed a coupled times but it didn't bring back my first flawless experience with serendipity before trying phoenix. Maybe I should try the stock rom and see if the problem persists..

I am running Phoenix Ultimate and always flash back to stock.
I wonder if phoenix has something to do with it. dont see how that would affect me tho since I'm not using it now. I also flash stock and master clear everytime. I did clear dalvik cache as someone motioned earlier and it hasn't happened yet.

i feel i should also mention that i have been seeing a gray icon in my notif. bar which i believe appears during data sync. its like recycle circle. looks pretty much identical to the reboot icon in the extended power menu. so - maybe i have too many apps and too many of those apps are set to auto sync and when they do it jams my data connection. still doesnt explain the affect on the amazon apps tho. im just rattling things off here to try and figure out whats going on and maybe jog someone elses brain in the process.
I get the sync icon in the notification bar as well. If I refresh gmail it will appear.
I have not heard of any others on the Phoenix ROM having this issue.
I've turned off auto sync in system settings and I haven't had the problem since. Its only been a couple days but so far so good. Still can't figure out why it affects amazon app authentication tho. Only thing I can think of is that with the syncing and data freezing my connection resets and I get assigned a different ip and can no longer validate with amazon.

Still no drops. I'm not having lag issues anymore either. I guess turning off auto sync was the fix. Prolly had a bunch of apps auto-syncing at once.

Well it didn't solve the amazon app force close. Just happened again when I opened gentle alarm.

Data drop-missing emails and texts

I read that the bionic had a known issue of dropping data with a short term solution of cycling airplane mode to reinitialize the data connection. My bionic will drop data at least once a day. While data is lost I miss all emails and text messages (since I use google voice and my messages come over data connection). While the solution of cycling the airplane mode works I often don't realize I've been missing emails for several hours which is a no no in my job.
1-how many of you are experiencing similar problems? 2-since I'm about 11 days into the phone, is it worth trying another bionic out with a replacement (ie-is it an occasional problem or universal to all bionics until the next update)
Thx

I get the same thing and its pretty f'in annoying, usually I notice it happening after longer calls, like you I just cycle the piss out of airplane mode...

It has been happening to me since the day I got the phone. I know it is an issue, and I know it is something that is supposedly to be addressed in the next update...however, yesterday morning I was so frustrated with it that I called VZW just to let them know it was happening to me.
Interestingly enough, since I made that call, I have not lost data connection. I have not rebooted or put the phone into airplane mode in over 24 hours.
It would drop out after switching from 4g to 3g, and it would also drop out in a 3g only area. But it has not dropped out in over a day; even in certain spots where it was consistently dropping out every day.
This happens all the time for me, usually when I first wake up or when I've been on WiFi for a while with data off. I've gotten around this issue (reliably and without powering down) by:
1) Disabling Juice Defender (temporarily) so that my data will run even with WiFi 2) Ensuring that data is enabled (in Settings)
3) Dialing *#*#4636#*#*
4) Opening "Phone", then tapping "Turn off Radio" at the bottom of the page
5) Tapping "Turn on Radio" again
6) Hitting Back or Home to get back to your home screen
In just a moment, when the radio comes back up, you should find Mobile Data re-enabled.
It's happened to me once or twice, but I was messing around with tethering and just assumed it was my fault.
It hasn't happened in a while.
Swyped from my Droid Bionic, unless I was in landscape, in which case I Swiftkeyed the hell out of it.
I had this thought last night. Could an app developer make a simple app that ran in the background and checked for internet connection every couple hours. If connection is lost it would cycle airplane mode which would restore connection. Basically it would operate the same as juice defender but with different parameters and the opposite goal (ie- turn data on instead of off). Thoughts? I would pay a buck our two for that app to keep from going 3 plus hours missing emails and texts. Who else would buy that app?

Bionic 3g/4g is not working (DROP) "FIX"
After searching around a few days for solution n test many apk and many many methods... Finally found the fix.
Just download "BionicTCP" from market (Play Store) (REQUIRES ROOT), and click on "Large TCP Buffers". It makes my Bionic xt875 3G/4G NO DROP AT ALL.
*BionicTCP : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spirilis.bionictcp
or directly from : http://spirilis.net/junk/android/BionicTCP.apk
By: SPIRILIS
It's stable for me, most of the time. I ever have problems I do just cycle but 5.9.905 (soon) should patch up most problems.
I'm running .905 now and still sticked by this prob...until using the app for every start of my bionic.

Droid 3 GPS quits after a day. Need to reboot...

I am trying to find out if the following is a defect in my phone or in the OS.
I need my GPS to work. Since I got my D3 I find that the GPS quits working every day or so of use. Sometimes it works longer, sometimes shorter, but usually about a day. Once it quits, I have to reboot to get it to work again. Battery pull is not needed, just standard reboot. This problem has been with me from stock all the way too current ICS alpha build.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
CM
I would get a new phone through warranty.

I have this issue too, so I doubt it is hardware.
Hmm, seems I'm going to need to get a larger consensus...
I've never had this issue.I would try restoring via sbf and setting how it goes

I'm stock, have GPS turned on all of the time, and I've never had a problem. (Well, the only time I had a problem was after I tried sleep, to see what would happen. I had to pull battery and found that GPS had been turned off.)

wifi issues with ics

Hey, my wifi always goes out and needs to be restarted while using ICS. at first it would happen like three times a day. now its a couple itmes an hour. it is very very very annoying. does anyone know a fix for this???
I don't have this problem, but do you have a wifi-sleep timer set up? Maybe an app is doing something?
No i dont. This issue was posted before in the threads but never had a solution. I always wipe EVERYTHING so i dont know why this happens with me.
Sent from my XT862 using Tapatalk
It's not just you. I get MANY wifi drops as well. I don't use it often, but when I do, I get a drop every 15 minutes or so. It happens very randomly: as in not when I'm loading a page, just randomly I'll see the logo go white then disappear.
My solution? A frustrated sigh and a switch of wifi on and off.

when using fullscreen apps and just even regular browsing its a b*tch. I tried the wifi fixer app but it didnt help. Im clueless
This has been an issue for me since the first ics rom. None since have fixed it or addressed it to my knowledge.

I did no have this problem on the AOKP 4/12 build, but do have it now on the 4/30 build. No idea why.
The audio issue is also ALOT worse for me. most of my phone calls do the silence thing where there is no audio. Today it caused me to run into alot of trouble. i hope these issues get fixed soon. I think it was the bluetooth updates in the changelog that caused the problems to occur more. As they are supposed to be bluetooth related. Unforunately i might have to go back to gingerbread
I am able to use 1x data & WIFI on ICS Rom only. Neither WiFi or Data works with Stock ROM.
Before It used to work in Stock ROM, but now it does not. So I am sticking to CM9
I have this issue too but I use juice defender. I only really use it for 2 functions
1. Enable WiFi when I'm home (constantly on) and disable when I'm away
2. Turn off data at night from 1am to 6am
when i flashed ICS the effectiveness is shady. A lot of times when i turn on the screen wifi is disabled but will reenable after a few seconds during the day. also at night sometimes it won't disable until later than 1am and will randomly enable and disable at like 4 am or something. sucks because i'll randomly get a bunch of notifications for emails twitter etc. and it will wake me up.

Stock ICS Bugs

Does anyone else think this update was half baked?
I'm having a lot of issues with the new update. Bluetooth keeps skipping like a scratched cd, Wifi won't connect just keeps requesting ip from router then I have to shut off wifi and turn it on manual to connect, I really need to fix these problem any suggestions.
Can I roll back to 2.3 stock some how?
Are there any other good forums for this phone?
I love it. No problems with Wi-Fi. As a matter of fact, to get Wi-Fi to work in gb,I had to reboot the phone everyday. Also no ghost calls. Being able to turn off data and Wi-Fi manually gives me 2 days of battery life.
