3g icon disappears on some calls! - Desire General

hi guys,
sometimes 3g/H icon disappears from its place when i make calls. obviously i am losing my internet connection. i have been using my mobile for 4 months, i hadnt noticed that before. have any of you experienced such a thing?
(tmobile uk)
thank you
glen

I believe that is because the phone turns off the 3G to save battery power while calling. Seen as you won't be browsing the internet while you are speaking to somebody.

thank you for your response
but it is not happening every time and i do browse when i am middle of a call
i reckon it started after a hard reset which i did a few days ago. anyone loosing h/3g during call?
thank you

when u place a call the data connection disconnects, mabye the icon stays there sometimes, but the data connection always disconnects

thanks again,
but i have just tried again, when i call my other mobile and answer, i am being able to go to homescreen and browse net with dolphin as long as h/3g icon is there. if it is lost, i cant browse. you can try if you have data plan or so...
but i couldnt get why that icon gets lost at the very time when i make a call? (sometimes)
thank you

[Q] Unable to use wifi while on a call

Title says it all. When I'm talking on the phone I'm unable to use wifi data. Browsing, apps which require data, maps, nothing workings while on a call.
I am running CM6 stable but this issue has been around for a while that I can remember.
Is there a work around? Could I be doing something wrong?
Thanks
Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but as far as i'm aware you can't use data and calls at the same time unless if your using 4g, which of course MC6 doesn't yet support.

You cannot use 3g data while on a call but I cannot see why you cannot use WIFI while on a call. I will test this on Stock Rooted and let you know in a few minutes.
It must be and issue with CM6 as I am able to make a call and surf the web, access the market, etc.. using WIFI at the same time with stock rooted..

Thanks for the confirmation. I've wondered this as well but I haven't noticed any other CM6 user complain about this issue. Maybe there's something in the settings I need to enable?
Its not cm6 or whatever I am having the same issue. No email or surfing while on the phone and simultaneously connected to wifi. Like the first post "title says it all". I am on Stock sprint rom. Just updated to the 3.70, but this problem has been going on noticably for a week prior maybe longer. I was hoping the update would fix it. Any thoughts? or answer?
You can use wifi whiles on a call to browse internet and use apps that require data. I been doing so since I first got a evo months ago. I only used it on one asop rom and that's cm 6.0 rc2 it worked fine when my gf was annoying me with her boring convo lol so i put on the bluetooth headphones and acted like i was paying attention whiles i was one facebook.
When is the last time you tried? I have been trying to use it on a calls all day, with no luck. Only time Wifi connects is when I hang up.
Scenario a: Wifi is turned off; I initiate call; try to turn on Wifi; Wifi will not connect .
Scenario b: Wifi is on; I initiate call; Wifi will not allow surfing until the phone is hung up.
Also when running speed test while on phone will produce very low speeds less than 64k when my speed should be around 12mbps. Again once phone is hung up the speeds return to normal. The speeds resemble a connection that is being throttled.
Are you connected to a Bluetooth headset while in a call?
Just noticed the blue tooth issue. Thanks for the response, but what gives. Surfing used to work while on bluetooth/phone call. For a while that was my only way to listen to music through my BT headset. I had to initiate a call to voicemail and play Iheart.

Heh, it's hit and miss for me.
What i've discovered is......
-If WiFi and the Bluetooth device are connected before initiating the call, it should work fine.
-Sometimes, the Bluetooth device can be connected later, as long as WiFi is connected to a network before call is initiated.
-You can disconnect the Bluetooth device during a call, turn on speaker [or not] to continue the call, and WiFi will connect, but will probably disconnect when you reconnect the Bluetooth device.
-Using method above, you can sustain WiFi connectivity whilst Bluetooth device is connected if you start to browse a website or launch a data required app such as an IM or online radio app, then while it's in the middle of connecting to one of those, reconnect the Bluetooth device.
Lot of trouble? Hell yes. I'm not sure if this is a problem with HTC's software or a hardware problem with having WiFi/Bluetooth on the same chip.
I was about to post this question up on the Hero forum but I found this thread. I have the same problem. Wifi will connect unless on a call but......sometimes if you are already connected before initiating call wifi will stay on FOR A BIT. After a while, wifi will disconnect on its own and if you are lucky it will reconnect later on. Note this is not alway the case. It ussually stays off. I just dont understand why this happens.

[Q] Wifi/Data and Telephone Call - answering Bug with Gingerbread (Redux)

Hey,
1) I have a Problem with wifi/data connection on my Desire (Redux - Gingerbread Rom).
I thought it happens if i have disabled wifi and data connection for about a day but i found this tread, which seems to be a better reason (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840735)
Bug when moving off WIFI on to Mobile Data
Hi,
I've noticed atleast 4 times that my phone doesn't connect to a mobile network from data when away from a WIFI connection.
So when I'm at home, the phone is connected using WIFI and all works fine. When I leave home, the phone should be connected via a mobile network (i have Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Network set), but it doesnt seem to connect when I try and use the browser. If I restart the phone or unset then set "Mobile Network", then the phone seems to pick up the mobile data connection and function normally.
Has anyone else seen this?
Cheers,
Ash

Is there a known sololution to solve this problem? (Instead of disabling wifi when leaving home)

2) My second problem happens when i answer a call. The first second after I answered it, the opposite person doesn´t understand what i´m saying. I have to answer a call with either waiting 1 second to talk or I have to say "Hello?!" so long someone answers ^^
Is this problem known and is there a solution?
Greets
Your second problem is a known one, problem by google. May be fixed in further Gb releases ...
Or switch to Oxygen Rom, its nearly cured by AdamG + his team ...
Ah thanks for the answer,i think that i´ll give Oxygen a try
To my first problem: a wifi-app (WiFi-Manager), that scans the wifi networks on its own, is able to connect to a Wifi-network - even if the Desire isn´t able to connect on its own.
The problem with the data-connection didn´t happen again since the last 2 days after i postet it ... strange!

Radio sleeping possibly?

So periodically my phone is active and working... all of a sudden i have full strength in bars but I can not transmit a call, recieve a call or use data and anyone calling will automatically goto voicemail. I'm beyond mind boggled what in the world is happening.
Im using wind mobile as my phone carrier and using UKID as the baseband.
Would appreciate any help or support.
same thing is happening to my phone.
I can not transmit a call, recieve a call (some times)
Im using 2.3.6 official rom.
Anyone know anything about
it was once happened to me as well. That was because of poor reception area. What I did was to manually search and select the network provider instead of automatic selection, this pretty much solved my issue in that area. Give it a go and share your result. Also restart your phone once before doing this.
Very odd.
Tried the above and still facing the same issue.
Pulled battery and sim card to be safe for a minute. turn on phone and went and did manual search. will have running service for about 5 minutes or so and the poof... doesnt exist.

Network loss

Ok guys, having a real problem here. Often when I am connected to either 3g or wifi my phone will stop picking up signal suddenly. AIt's almost every time and I will have to disconnect from the network manually and reconnect and it will instantly pick up signal again for a while then it'll repeat. When it suddenly stops it doesn't show on the status bar that I have lost any signal. With 3g its kinda just at a stand still not receiving or uploading and with wifi it just stays the same but I'm still not picking up a signal because by web pages won't load neither will other apps that require network load until I manully disconnect and reconnect. Is anyone else having a problem like this? I don't think it was like this when I firs got my phone a month ago. I'm at a loss. Any help is much appreciated. Oh I'm completely stock btw haven't rooted........(yet) lol

It has happened to me a couple times that I have noticed. I will be streaming music and walking and all of a sudden, nothing.
Even a soft reboot does not help. It will require a full reboot generally to solve the issue. I have not been able to identify the issue specifically. I suspect it might be related to LTE testing in my area.
What's the LTE status in your area?
No lte yet but as I stated earlier it happens on wifi too. It'll still show that the signal is connected but my pages want load at all after it happens and when I try to refresh it'll say that the webpage could not load because there is no network. Only until I manually shut off 3g or wifi in the settings and turn it back on will it pick up signal again but only for about 5 minutes. This has happened in various locations on 3g and wifi and will even happen at home wifi.

This has happened to me as well... A lot . Stock.. on various roms.. No lte as well.. But it's in the works
-TeaM VeNuM Like A Boss
-Galaxy Note II Edition
I've had this problem too. Sprint replaced my phone and it never happened again.
I think reactivating hands free actually fixed my problem...for now anyway. It's not losing network like it was before. All I did was enter on the phone dial pad ##72786# that'll reactivate. Hope this helps

[Q] Data and phone call/SMS

I started noticing a weird thing happening with the phone - the data switches from 4g/LTE to 4G whenever I get a call or an SMS. Very annoying especially when I tether, since it instantly drops my connection speed. It might go back to LTE, it might not, more often not though for some time after I end the call. Is this normal?

HMMM good question. That would be an answer that most likely only T-MO Network support can answer.
Tmobile hasn't implemented Vo lte
