My g1 have big problem, it loss signal all day, most the time. I tried turn on air plane mode and turn off, or retart the phone, wipe, up another rom, up newest radio version, use 2g network only. But it doesn't work.
It loss signal random, i can't control or do something to have signal again. even i change many other sim cards. but i discover one thing: seem this problem related air plane mode. because in some rom version, i turned off air plane mode but it didnt, even i restart my phone it still on. i must take out the battery for long time and put it again.
Some time it have signal again but it only for short time.
How can i fix this problem, please help me.
please someone can help me. my phone isn't a phone anymore
hhmmm...Try to upgrade to the latest radio for g1. If that doesn't help, maybe your rom has messed up apn settings or the service in your area dropped.

I can add few things to this since I experience loss of signal multiple times every day:
I have 2 G1s. On both of them it happens:
1. Using different ROMS (CM, Super-D, OpenEclair)
2. Using different recoveries (RA 1.5.2 and 1.6.2)
3. At different times of the day
4. Using different radios (older radio and the newest one, sorry I can never remember the numbers)
5. Across different states ( I took one of them thru 5 different states and it kept loosing signal)
What happens is that I start a program that requires data (twidroid, FB, Gmail, Market) and I see my connection get stuck on the uplink, go away completely and restart the radio. Another way it will do it, is that it will stay on blank screen (or downloading screen) and there will be no uplink or downlink shown)
Tried: wiping, re-flashing radio, re-flashing rom, getting rid of few apps.
Anyone with any insight on this? I can get a log next time this happens if anyone wants to take a look.
Thank!
i tried many diferent rom, radio, and recorvery too. but it still doesn't work?
Now i discover that any connect in my g1 seem doesn't work. wifi can search but when i connected it can't open any page even google. gps can receavie signal, bluetooth can turn on but no one can see me or i can' connect to my headset bluetooth.
May i think it is mainboard's problem? i opened my g1 and see anten signal very perfect, don't have any space or something like that.
Today was the first time I installed a mod onto my device. I updated the radio to TheOfficial_Nexus1_Radio_Update_4.04.00.03_2.zip and flashed CM5.0.6. Everything has been great, EXCEPT my device won't connect to 3G coverage. It clearly displays 3G, but no internet applications will load (ie browser, email, weather). When I force the device to use only 2G / Edge, then it works fine, but obviously speeds are SLOW. WiFi too works flawlessly. Any ideas? I tried going back to TheOfficial_Nexus1_Radio_Update_4.03.00.21_2.zip and this did NOT solve the problem.
Ideas please? My N1 has become a 2G device in a matter of hours, SUCKS!
I should add I'm on T-Mobile and prior to any modifications today I had excellent 3G coverage.
For testing purposes...have you tried to flash 5.0.3 and seeing if your phone still has 3G issues?
I will try this right now. I was told it doesn't matter if I flash the radio before or after install... true?
No difference with 5.0.3. When 3G is displayed no data will transfer. When H is displayed, then I get good data transfer. However, the H is only there maybe 1 time every 5 minutes or so.
Could be an issue with not having rooted the device properly? When I rooted I never got the SU notification like I have seen in some threads showing a picture where you have to click "allow" for the device to allow root. I do have the app superuser permission on the device, but it's empty when I open it.
Thx
Well you can always just go from scratch. Get into bootloader, flash all of the stock PASSIMG images and then start over...
-flash recovery
-go into recovery, perform the traditional wipes
-flash the rom of choice
-reboot and see what happens
Does this happen in all locations or just at home/work/etc?
i've only been working out of home today. tomorrow ill be a better test. i took suggestions from posts i placed in the official cm5.0.6 thread in the rom development forum... and i changed some information in the build.prop. i think it has actually helped my issue... will be reporting back if i'm wrong..
Wifi turns off automatically and it's impossible to make it work again without rebooting. Am I the only one with this issue?

I have a variant of this, I've tried with both the .03 and .04 radios, it's the same, so it's not the radio itself:
I lose coverage so I get the wifi icon with the exclamation mark, instead of it reconnecting automatically. Switching wifi off, then back on, allows me to use wifi again.
I'm using the NX5 AOSP ROM, 5.0R6 (LRX21T)
We all get different experiences, but it sounds like the root cause is likely the same.
Give as much information as you can (Android version, radio, which particular ROM, usage), otherwise it's impossible to understand what could be causing the issue.

The same happens on my Nexus 10 (which doesn't have a radio as far as I know) with stock rooted 5.0.
Wi-Fi delayed list...
A very annoying bug that i am facing is when i enable Wi-Fi i have to wait more than two minutes to get the Wi-Fi network list meanwhile i might get messages like "settings are not responding" also none of the new Wi-Fi networks are saved b in to saved network list, so i have to enter wpa keys again and again....

Did you do a clean install or did you just install it over your 4.4?

once you click "flash all.bat" it formats and cleans everything, so I guess I clean flashed it.

I guess I'm just wondering if these are issues are due to not starting a clean slate. I typically try to do a clean wipe of the internal NAND whenever it's a major revision change (4.4 > 5.0).
But if the bugs are persistent for those of you who did a clean install...maybe it's better to hold off for now.
I did a clean flash all as well and have the same issue where WiFi is never turned off. Wtf google. Battery was awesome right before the update

Thanks for the info. I guess I'll hold for now.
as for me, usb tether always turns of itself when i wake/turn the screen on
stock image rooted using CF
wifi works fine
Mine would lose connectivity, meander about for 30 - 60 seconds, and reconnect. I set the WiFi antenna to 2.4Ghz (from Auto) and turned off "Scanning always available" (although I doubt the latter had anything to do with it) and it's been fine ever since. This was on a clean factory install -- no root, no OTA update; pure OEM Lollipop ROM.
Whenever i go to settings > Wifi settings the phone freezes for a couple of seconds and then it crashes. This happens like 70% of the time.
Anyone else having this ?
I dont have any wifi etc problems
Only thing i have noticed so far is the recent apps bug that shows up sometimes
--------------------
Phone: Nexus 4
OS: rooted Lollipop LRX21T
Bootloader: unlocked
stock Recovery
Bluetooth tethering between nexus 4 and nexus 7 breaks every 30 mins or so.
You have to reboot to get it working again.
Decided to take the plunge. Installed lollipop. Am happy to say that I do not have this issue occuring to me though.
yup, wifi issues for me.
Notice it when I get home, my wifi will not connect and when I go to check the settings it has been turned off. So of course I try to turn it on but everything I try does not work, I am unable to get it to turn on. Only a reboot will get wifi working again.
Not happy at all about this. and a couple of other features. Now I'm wishing I never did the update. Google you have taken my expensive smart phone and turned it against me.

It could be a combination of your router and something they've changed in how Lollipop handles networking.

I have the same issue. On my Nexus 4, I just set it to 2.4 GHz only, as 5 GHz has never worked since 4.3. I can only connect if I hold the phone up to the router. On my Nexus 7 where 5GHz actually works well, I like the fact it prefers 5GHz.
I'm having major trouble lately with my turbo switching from 4G LTE to 1x, 3G, or even no signal or data signal at all. It seems to happen more when it hits 15% and the battery saver comes on. But when I turn battery saver off or hook it up to a charger it doesn't connect back up or do anything. I'm getting really frustrated by this because I cant seem to get my phone to re connect to 4G no matter what I do. I put it in airplane mode and even restart my phone; it wont work no matter what. I think its mostly because of the update to lollipop and its a glitch. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue and if there's any way to fix it besides sitting there for a half an hour wiping the cache and not being able to use the phone.
I'm not experiencing that. Did it start right after you updated? Have you done a factory data reset since upgrading to the pop? Onethng you could try is going into setting and switching it from the factory global mode to 3G/4g and see if that helps. I haven't ever needed to with the turbo but others have and successfully avaoided doing an FDR. Lemme know if that works. We'll get this figured out.
Well I came from a rooted 4.4.4 so I had to reset it back to the original in rooted 4.4.4 in order to update. So technicly yes I did do a factory reset since the update. No I haven't had any trouble since the update until recently for some reason. I've got a signal booster at my house and wondering if my phone isn't trying to switch between the booster and the actual tower, causing it to take more power which makes it loose connection because it can't decide which one to connect to. But I have perfect 4G signal with the booster so I don't see why it would want to switch.
I wouldn't imagine that it would be the booster since you're signal is solid there, but it could always be a possibility. Have you tried switching from global mode under network settings to CDMA/LTE? That solved all the network issues I used to have with my old Razr Max HD. Also, have you taken the OTA that was pushed yesterday? Some people were seeing an increase in signal strength.
As a matter of fact, I updated right after I posted that comment. I didn't even know there was a update till I was looking at Google now and saw there was a small update out. I havent had any issues with connection since the update. I'll post back here if I do come into problems. Thanks for the help though.
Any time buddy! I sincerely hope that solved the issue!
Well I was using navigation earlier today and for some reason, not only did I completely loose my 4G data but it said I lost GPS to. My maps app continued to run but it didn't look like I was moving on the screen, even though I was. Guess the glitched didnt get completely fixed.
It's almost like it does it just at night and when I'm using a lot of data over 4G.
Hello guys,
For the past year or so I am having intermittent problems with my 3g connection. It just loses the connection with the mobile internet without any error messages and the only way to fix this is rebooting the phone. At first it happened every couple months but the intervals between connection losses seems to get shorter. The last few months it was every 10-14 days, now it's every 5 days. Since a reboot seems to fix this I don't think there is a physical defect on my 3g chip but the shortening intervals are somewhat worrying. I checked my APN settings multiple times and I've called my carrier's tech support several times but they too can't seem to find anything wrong with my APN settings. I'm currently using a custom ROM (OmniROM based on Android 4.4.4 with the Stagefright patch included) but this problem existed even in the original ROM so I doubt it's a kernel/driver issue. Is there anyone knowledgeable enough to pinpoint the problem or at least help me in the right direction because it's becoming a bit annoying and I dislike not being able to figure out WHY something happens. ^^"
The issue you have mentioned applied also to my phone, but it appeared for the first time after installing Omni from golden-guy. I haven't observed it on my stock rom. At the very beginning, I was able to mitigate the issue by turning airplane mode on and off. As you mentioned, the issue's frequency was increasing over time, leading to more than one signal lost per day. Airplane mode solution stopped working. I have also tried to kill (and got restarted) rild, as well as radiod - with no luck. Logs (I haven't checked kmesg) revealed nothing. I'm not sure the details of your issue, but I was loosing the whole GSM/WCDMA signal, not only the Internet access. Meanwhile, the system seemd to be looking for a network, draining my battery.
I still hope that the solution was to replace my SIM card with a new one from the operator. After that, about a month ago, the issue happened only once, and airplane mode on and off solved it. It's worth to notice, that turning airplane mode on took quite long time, about 30 seconds.
I'm having GT-I8190, Omni version 4.4.4-20151108, baseband I8190XXAMG (I'm not sure if it is distributed along with the rom, or maybe resides on different partition, and is not updated with the omni rom releases).

Did you check logcat? If you didn't then logcat might show what the problem is. And your problem sounds more severe than mine. I only lose 3g but I can still call and send text messages. A problem with the simcard might be possible but it could also be a physical problem with the simcard slot though I can't say why rebooting or turning airplane mode off and back on would fix that.

I just wanted to confirm that I have similllar issue with 3g data connection. S3 mini with I8190XXAMG4 baseband. Stock ROM used for last few years (without any significant issues with 3g data connections), upgraded to latest CM11 20151017 from maclaw/novafusion. I noticed that there are some glitches with 3g data connections. Sometimes I need to tap few times before connection finally is being established. Funny thing is that I have second s3 mini with the same CM11 20151017 and all is OK.
I tried a lot of another ROMs; fifferent version of CM11, OmniROM (4.4.4 and 5.1.1), CM12.1 - problem remains - issues with 3g data connection. Is there any solution to get rid of this 3g data issue?

Yes, logcat (main, radio, events) revealed nothing but just signal drop to 0%. At that time, I didn't know about kmsg and system logcat buffer, so I haven't checked them.

Just tried this, and it helped. Usually, when something is not working, people try to turn it off and on again.
I always had rare glitches with mobile data connectivity, and turning mobile data off and on again always solved the problem. I think our problems my be hardware related. I suppose my old SIM card could have buggy software, i.e. advertising to support some newer protocol, but actually didn't. After upgrading, the phone tried to use the new advertised protocol, and got confused, or made the SIM confused.
I also know about cases, when SIM card simply died without any reason.
I used Note 2 about two years, flashed different roms and never had troubles, but then my friend used it about 3 months on 5.0.2 custom and got troubles with gsm/wcdma. My next samsung phone become our beloved i8190. Flashed it from stock to 5.0.2 CM, than 5.1.1, after month got first Cellular bugs. Tried another LP and some KK roms, my troubles with baseband became more and more frequently every day, flashed different modems, changed much settings in system.. So I was desided that it's all HW problems, and hated Samsung for such failure. But one day just tried to install Project Noble, and all this troubles gone forever. So it's just drivers, which not optimised for new Android versions. 4.1.2 mixed with old TouchWiz after fresh and clean Lollypop feels horrible, but we can do nothing with it.

But if it's hardware related, wouldn't you think that rebooting our phone or turning airplane mode on and off wouldn't fix it? And did you see in the logcat log if something happened before the signal drop? Sometimes events prior to the signal drop can also tell something about the cause.

Hardware could also have its state, which may get corrupted and reset on reboot.
