Decided to go to Canada for the weekend. Seems I randomly lose service, and need to reboot to get a signal again. Everything under Phone Info appears fine, and says I'm not roaming. Anyone else had this issue?

I'm in Verizon in Washington state and my phone has started doing the same thing today. Happed 5 or 6 times today while using YouTube, YouTube TV, Amazon app, and chrome. I was using 1.1.1.1 DNS will change that to see if it makes a difference. Has your problem continued?

I've had the same issues periodically. swapping sim slots has worked for me. give it a shot.

So it turns out my VZW plan was so old, it wasn't giving me the option to roam on other networks (travel pass).

I recently went to Germany and had the issue of having service, but sometimes no data. There's an option that sometimes appears when roaming called Network Operators under Settings > Wi-Fi & internet > Sim & Network > SIM 1 (or SIM 2) that'll manually let you choose which network to connect to. I'm my case my phone automatically connected to "o2 -de" network, and I had to manually choose "telekom.de" network to get calls and data. Unfortunately, I didn't take screenshots while abroad, but this is what it looks like at home...
