I was using my phone earlier today when google play froze while searching for an app. It just kept saying searching. I was simultaneously trying to access my desktop over my phones data connection so I figured that was the problem and decided to go into airplane mode in order to stop google play from searching forever because i am impatient. Well I did something. Google play stopped searching and said there was no longer a connection. So I turned off airplane mode and now ever since I have NO data connection. I can make calls, text, etc. but not go online. WHAT did i do??? I've tried restarting, turning airplane mode on then off, removing the batt. sim, mem card. Nothing seems to work. I've searched a lot but fond nothing and I'm frustrated. Please help. Thank you.
Have you rooted or s-off. Try going to att and get a new sim card. Or erase your cache and do a factory reset.

Hello fellow 2x owners.
Im experiencing the following weird problem:
After using the phone for about 24 hours suddenly my internet stops working. It still has the 3g icon but not the up and down arrows.
Setting are correct, entering new settings doesnt change a thing. Rebooting, turning data on and off, roaming.. nothing seems to work.
The only way to restore it is going back to factory defaults.
Ive done that 2 times already but the problem seems to return every single time again after a while (say 24 hours).
Do you guys have any idea what might cause it? Im using the phone for about 10 days now and its really getting annoying. Comming from a HTC Desire with the same simcard where I never experienced this problem before.
Cheers!

Had the same experience today with a "brand new" VIP changed phone. While in the train from Amersfoort to Apeldoorn I lost connection, checked the APN, did resets, flight mode etc. Eventually it worked when I rebooted while in flight mode, then turn connection back on after reboot... Hope this won't happen more often, as my previous sample (bought on 10 march) didn't show any of this.
Only difference is this one's rooted from day 1.
Hi, does the wifi work? Or... IMs, Tweets, & RSS updates? If there is an issue w/ your phone, you'll want to be clear when speaking to an CS agent. Good Luck!
I ended up finding the problem. Every setting and such was correct, but there was a faulty widget toggle that was preventing data. ended up reinstalling it and the problem was fixed!

Having the same problem
Can't get it to work regardless of how many reboots and toggles. It works after I do a factory reset, but as soon as I have used the wifi, it simply refuses to go back to mobile data once i turn the wifi off.
Really frustrating.
I tried using apndroid to disable/enable the access point. This worked really well, and I got back data connectivity. What's really weird is that the problem hasn't returned yet. I can switch between wifi/3g all I want. I don't really know what the problem was since my sim card (tdc) worked well in other phones, and other sim cards (Telia) worked well in the optimus....
Everytime I go on the Youtube app all I get is "There was a problem with the network [504]" I have cleared cache etc, flashed stock Froyo and GB (each time factory reset and cleared dalvik) but nothing works, also Tweetcaster wont update. Yet all other data dependant apps work? Im confused.
I also hve the same problem, what I found out is that the internet connection should be very good,otherwise it will give error, seems the problem is youtube not the network becuse at the same time I can connect to internet
I've never had a problem before, regardless of how good my internet connecting was. It would work on g/3g or h. It was fine on Sunday then not working on monday.

This is due to Google Talk Authentication Error which is annoying the hell out of me.
I literally did everything: flashed a fresh stock rom, factory reset, it started working for maybe 10 minutes but now it stopped and I it won't sign into Gtalk and therefore I can't download apps. What the hell? Can anyone please help meh?
Is your phone time and date correct?

Cleared the data cache in settings> applications for market and download manager?
Sent from my LG-P999
Yes, I did. Basically, Gtalk signs in and stays that way if I take out the sim but when I put it back in it says Google Talk Authentication Error or something like that not even 3 minutes after turning the phone back on.
I want to mention that this is stock firmware 2.2.
Update: I get Google Talk Authentication Error without the SIM in the phone as well.. It just refuses to sign in some time after I turn on da fone.
Same problem here, even after flashing fresh rom......
there is this authentication error popup, saying something about chatservice has to be turned on......weird
tried everything!
Change SD card or format it..there were so many people hv the same issue. And so many suggestion..i tried everything that was suggested, and lastly i format my SD card..so far it works fine after 2wks..another common issue is people who use SD 16gb or more class 6 n above curiously have this issue..but most 8gb users seems fine.
Fixed by pulling out the similar and forcing gtalk to log in thru wick, then put similar back in and it works.
I meant sim, damn autocorreccltion

Just today I noticed that the 3g data on my phone won't turn on.
I normally have my wifi on but when I go out of range the phone would auto switch to data plan.
Today it did not switch, tried putting the phone in flight mode and back out again but this did not help. Its been working fine up to now.
I have put nothing new on the phone or changed any settings so don't know why its all of a sudden stopped working.
Can anyone help??????
I had the exact problem last week and i resolved it by calling my mobile data provider,it turned out to be a problem with their servers

Both comments make a lot of sense.....
I think I will get a replacement SIM card before messing with the phone. If that makes no difference then its a Settings change then a hard reset.
I hope to god the sim card change will do it.
OK here's where I'm currently at.
I tried a number of options to get it working with no success, then I did the following and it came back on.
1. Turned on WIFI
2. Set the phone to Flight Mode
3. Powered down the phone for about 5 Minutes
4. Powered it back up and waited for it to settle down.
5. Turned off flight mode (it asked for my PIN)
6. Put the PIN and it booted up with WIFI on.
7. Turned off WIFI and the Data came on right away.
I have since turned WIFI on and off and the data go's on and off as expected. I also checked my email and did a search on Google on the data plan and it loaded everything fine.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed it has sorted itself out.
I hope the above instructions will help someone with the same problem should it happen to them.
No access to Optus data
Hey guys,
Sorry to dig up an old thread but I've been having a similar issue.
Calls and SMS work fine but the data is 110% gone.
I previously had an Optus prepaid and I noticed that I could never get the data to work.
I have now switched to TPG...somewhat hoping that it'd be better, turned out the same (granted they are the same network).
I have tried fiddling around with different APNs and restarting the phone each time to no avail

Tyvm it worked for me. I actually tried something similar like this the first time it happened but I didn't remember what exactly but now when you listed it, it seemed to work. Thanks alot
I don't have any restrictions on apps using mobile data but for some reason, I have several apps like gmail and hangouts that won't sync unless on WiFi. Any way to figure out what is causing this? The YouTube app won't work on cell data, only on wifi... that's strange.
Thanks!
It's been happening for me too. I though it was just poor signal, but lately it's been worse.
I'll have 3 or 4 bars and can browse the internet just fine which is strange. I just tried clearing cache to see if that does anything.. I'll report back later
Sound Search is doing the same for me. Also, my phone keeps telling me I'm not signed in to Google when I'm on cell data.
Clearing the cache did not work, I tried deleting data from YouTube and other apps and that didn't work either. I really do not want to do a factory reset.
If you have Gasbuddy installed it might be that. Last week after taking an update for Gasbuddy anything that connected to my phone using it as a hotspot could not get internet access. Didn't make the connection at the time and factory reset my phone and hotspot started working correctly. Started reinstalling apps and when I got to Gasbuddy the hotspot quite again so I uninstalled Gasbuddy and everthing started working again.
That's strange. I don't have that app on my phone but I'll look to see what I recently installed and go from there. Good thinking there though.
Ended up doing a factory reset which worked.
