HD2 Loses web connection?

qweac · Jan 8, 2010

Hi!

My HD2 loses connection to the web randomly. When this happens I still got H or 3g, but Opera, Twitter, Facebook++ can't be used. I have to restart my device to get the web connection back. This happens randomly, but probably around 1-2 times a day.

Starting to get very frustrating. Help?

Running my default 1.48 rom.

I had this on my diamond - I thought it was Sure's data service being rubbish. I get it sometimes on my HD2 between 12 and 60-odd hours use. I can't tell if it's a phone or network thing though.

However, there's an easier way to get connection back. Just turn the data connection off and on again - takes a few seconds, much faster than resetting.

Turning the data connection off and on again worked. Thanks!

Anyone with a more permanent solution?

I've got the same issue here. Switching on and off the data connection indeed helps, but a permanent solution would be great!

+1, have the same issue. Thought it because I use two APN's (one general and one for work to reach exchance server). But seems to be more general issue.

Hi...

There are many of us struggling with the same issue. Hardly an outside chance that all of us have the same provider, which only leaves one possibility... must be something related to the phone. Options I can think of are listed below.

1. Hardware issue - would help if HTC were to release a statement either way.
2. Software issue - wonder if the problem can be traced back to the browsers?

Suggestion: lets all place a feedback on the thread regarding when the problems occur. Until now I have seen the issue haunting me in 2 browsers; Opera 9.7 and latest downloadable skyfire version. Only once or twice in IE. I'm inclined to think it is a software issue

Not only a browser issue for me. When this happens I can't update the weather, facebook, twitter or mail...

When I went to bed yesterday everything was working fine. When I woke up today the web was gone...

What happenes if you guys try Skyfire as web-browser?
I have similar problem with my WiFi, but it dies within 1 min after restart.
Only skype and skyfire work, youtube and opera stop working.

data connection drops out

same problem here (Netherlands Vodafone) ?????

leobox1 · Jan 11, 2010

i think.... this may be because of the network switching between H and 3G versions.. when it happens, a temp stop in all network activity will occur

optiknerv · Jan 11, 2010

can confirm it here also on 1.43 and 1.61 roms. I found that setting my phone to hsdpa only (as upposed to hsdpa and hsupa) it improved stability.

Vodafone nederland denk ik ja.. ik heb er namelijk ook altijd last van! :S

chmun77 · Jan 11, 2010

same here... having the intermittent network problem. My HTC Hero was much stable then. This phone is indeed having lots of issues. Disappointing....

Starfury · Jan 11, 2010

I had it on 1.43 regaularly, since shoehorning 1.48 into my Vodafone UK HD2 it hasn't been so regular, I think only once.
When I had it on 1.43 it was like the data connection was active but there were no available resources remaining to use it. Not sure exactly but I noticed the more programs I had running and connected to the internet in the background the more frequently it would cut out.

I have this too, it's easily the biggest problem with the HD2.

This problem didn't start with me until I switched from the stock UK T-Mobile rom, to the 1.48 WWE and later the 1.61 which makes me think its a software problem. Prior to switching ROM's the data connection was brilliant, way better than my Diamond.

My connection has been stable and running for 71 hours since I removed Dutty's taskmanager. Could be a coincidence, but maybe worth a try?

kuzibri · Jan 11, 2010

I have this problem also but only since a shortwhile. Might it have something to do with the SIM contacts hotfix? After that my problem with the data connection begun. Going to deinstall this hotfix and see what happens.

P.S.1: My TP2 does not suffer from this problem
P.S.2: Does anyone know how to deinstall this SIM contacts fix, cause it's not listed in the installed programs list. Or does anyone has the radio version belonging to the original 1.48 Dutch ROM??

arienvijn · Jan 11, 2010

Did a hardreset
Installed only Resco Explorer

En the problem is stil here!!!
Rom 1.44.172.7 Vodafone Netherlands
