Motorola Connect Issues 7-20-2014 - Moto X Q&A

Anyone else having issues with the service today? I can not get a connection at all.

Mine has been dropping in and out and there is a big lag for sending texts, receiving seems to be fine. I thought it was my work firewall, but it sounds like it may just be the service.

I've experienced this as well. Haven't been able to connect at work for the past few days (fri, then yesterday & today). It did previously work on my office network and I'm buddies w/ the IT director and nothing has changed in their firewall config for the past few months. It does seem to connect at home, but is slow to update and still loses connection frequently.

3G issues with T-Mobile

Since a couple of weeks ago, I seem to be having problems getting a solid connection. I have my device set to check mail every 4 hours and latest PhoneAlarm to dis after 2 mins.
What happens is a get a 3G connection, no data is transfered so Outlook hangs on connecting and the PA software does not dis. Since no data is transfered is not costing me. Sometimes it connects fine, does'nt seem to be a local problem.
Do I need to check settings?? Anyone got them? The phone is HTC branded straight out of box.
Thanks

windows live messenger. so flaky

I installed the 10.6.34.800 build of messenger. Im using 3 network in UK. installed WLM and the Indentify as N95 cab. used to connect fast and reliable.
lately its been pain in the a$$ to connect, it connects to HSDPA, the 3g icon changes to H but then that damn busy icon just spins until it timesout.
I flash new roms on it all the time, so always installing WLM and apps. the first few times after flashing are fine, then it grinds to a halt.
I wonder if there is some file created thats jamming it or some cache file ?
other apps work fine. IE, beyondfeed, google maps,
i would blame the 3 network, but Ive installed IM+ and it connects first time, everytime to msn network, so now Im blaming this $hit WLM. When its in this mood, it wont sync either. sticks at checking internet connectivity , after it goes to H.
has anyone having / had the same carry on ?
TIA
Happens to me too. It always seems to work really well after installing it but then fades.
i had problems with live messenger also, couldn't sync or retrieve my emails, i contacted ms support and they told me that this happens sometimes for no reason. it will work perfectly for a while then nothing. i was told to sign out and then sign back in. doing this works everytime for me.
Have you tried BeeJive? http://www.beejive.com/wm6/
3 sometimes block Live Messenger, depending on what tariff or contract you have at the time. For example if you buy the £5 Internet Browsing bundle, as part of the terms of the bundle Live Messenger is blocked. I've found some of the third party softwares have the same problem with working for awhile then breaking.
A way round the problem is to setup a proxy on your home PC, but this isn't really ideal unless anyone knows of a way of proxying Live Messenger only and not Internet Explorer.
thnx, I tried only WLM and IM+ . I'll stick with IM+ until I change to O2 or find an answer. When it played up again today, I disconnected data in comm manager and put on wi-fi. It connected in seconds on wi-fi, then when I put off wi-fi and 3g back on, it connected again instantly.
its back again to sticking this evening. IM+ works ok on w-fi and 3g, WLM connects on wi-fi only unless I get lucky and keep playing about with comm manager by disabling/ enabling data and wi-fi.
i am on 3 payg for £5 a month, so it could be part of the problem. I know, before, it point blank refused to connect on 3 until I used the Identify as N95 cab.
would love to know what's causing it.
That's the problem that's been reported in other forums/posts, if you stick an orange sim in or use Wi-FI the Live Messenger works without fail (well, almost) but as soon as you use the Three sim it keeps playing up.
The fact that you can connect via Wi-Fi, disconnect and connect straight away via GPRS/3G makes it seem like all they do is block the DNS from resolving? If so it'll be a stupidly easy fix. I've heard it's some setting in the SIM that Live Messenger looks for though, which would be much harder to break.

[Q] Has ATT finally blocked Hotspot for Nexus One?

I have been using Hotspot on my rooted N1 flawlessly for years. However I recently noticed something weird going on. When my Hotspot was not working in the past it was because of network issues in my area. However, now I am noticing that the network is fine and I can browse fine on my phone, but when connecting my laptop to my phone using Hotspot I can not browse at all. I've done speedtest on the phone using speedtest.net mobile app and get great speeds and able to browse on my phone fine. Also It's not my laptop as I am able to browse fine when connected to any other wifi network. Anyone else experiencing issues with Hotspot?
XDA is no longer worth my time.
Yea I think I got throttled for being in top 5% and then some weirdness was going on in my area where my connection kept getting clogged and ATT had to reset my phone but it still seems to be working.

[Q] Sporadically lose cell connection

My HTC One (AT&T, stock) loses cell connection sporadically... like once every few days for an hour or so. During these episodes, my wife's iPhone (also AT&T) works just fine.
Rebooting the phone brings back cell connection.... but it's a huge problem, because I don't notice I have no cell connection, and have missed several calls and texts because of it.
It happened on 4.2 and I just got the update to 4.3 yesterday... and it happened again this morning.
Anyone know if there's a fix? It makes my smartphone into a pretty terrible phone if I can't rely on it :/

Question Random connection issue (phone does not receive calls, wi-fi)

I own the Realme 8 (4G) for my wife, and randomly happen that the phone does not receive or make calls (is basically offline) and of course is not in flight mode. After reboot also wi-fi has issue to connect to wi-fi at home on fritzbox router with 2,4 Ghz (it refuse the connection). It's strange if I open the a temporary protected guest mode, it connect without problems (it was using the same channel).
After a while or the morning after it reconnect to the regular access point again. It has occurred almost once every months since we got this phone (4 months actually).
I don't have issues with other devices at home, especially the problem with calls means a problem might be on the phone. I wonder it's a general issue to be fixed with software, otherwise I may call for repair in warranty. Anyone with similar issues?

After 2 years the issue is still there. The phone is updated to last firmware. I'm guessing that it might be related to the connection with certain SIMs.
