Default Data connectivity issues?

Anyone else having connectivity issues with their one x? If the phone loses connection for any length of time, it will not reconnect and I'll have to reboot the phone for the mobile network to reconnect, which is probably every 15 minutes or so in my case.

I skimmed a couple pages, couldn't find anything, but I've found a couple other forums with people posting about this issue.

Hoping there's a fix for this as every ATT store within 50 miles is out of stock on both colors and customer care won't do a damn thing for me but tell me "go back to the store." Bull**** if you ask me, broken ass phone and I'm stuck with it. Really?

I was hoping there was a fix, even if I have to unlock the bootloader and root.

Did you try messing with the sim card? Make sure it is inserted properly. This worked for me when my data was dropping out. Now the phone is on constant LTE.

THis just happened to me. Any length of time on data loss and the phone needs a reboot or airplane mode toggle. This is the worst bug to me. I'm praying an ota for this issue drops real soon. I understand signal drops, there is no way to avoid spotty coverage. But u shouldn't have to reboot or go in to airplane mode to pick up data again.

Airplane mode doesn't even work for me..... I have to hard reboot the phone, do you know how annoying that is? it's gotten to the point where I have to turn off data connection when im not using it, and turn it back on when I need it.

Problem is for work I use GPS a lot, and when it loses service im supposed to reboot my phone while driving and lose my path? Worst bug EVER. I dont have any of these multitasking issues at least.

I wish I could just go get a new phone, but I can't. Thanks apple, assholes. I'm so mad.

Don't get your hopes up, I had this exact problem except not only would data stop working, so would text and phone calls.

AT&T replaced my SIM card but didn't fix the issue. Had to end up taking the phone back and got a new one. So far so good, but it has only been 1 day with the new one.

If I could find one, I would exchange it in a second.

I didn't have any issues since release day but noticed I had no connection all day, even after multiple restarts. I took it to Att and they replaced the sim. It's been fine the rest of the day but we'll see. Also I'm in Chicago and blaming anything weird on the NATO conference.

*edit*
After posting this, I lost all connectivity. Turned on airplane mode and off and was back. Weak.

Maybe something is up today? My phone lost ALL connection for an hour. A straight hour, I did 3 reboots and toggled airplane mode multiple times. As soon as I got home and connected to wifi it came up again, then went back off. Had to restarted for a 4th or 5th time then it finally restored. It was pretty damn annoying.
