First of all, i am new here so....hey everyone.

So basically i was downloading and uninstalling a few apps this morning. Long story short: I downloaded the "Juice Defender" to my phone then uninstalled it. NOW all of the sudden my internet/data connection is GONE. The phone still works fine...volume...music etc. But the little icon in the top right of the screen...that's gone. I can't get on gmail....internet....nothing. It's really annoying. I don't know what i hit when i had that stupid juice defender on my phone(which BTW DRAINED my battery! :-\ ) but now...i have no data connection.

And i went to the Settings >>>> Wireless and network>>>> I checked everything.....and i still get nothing.

Can someone please help me? :-\

This happened to me once.

Check to make sure "Use packet data" is checked under 'Wireless and network >> Mobile networks'.

Thanks for the replies guys.....

...but late last night i did a "factory reset" on my phone and just started over completely! Have to re-DL everything and etc! Oh well.....

I should have came here first haha! But it's all good! Thanks for the replies!

I suggest no one ever download juice defender...and if you do....read the directions to the app CAREFULLY! I will never do that again. :-\

I had the same exact problem when I first got the phone and downloaded juicedefender. I remember playing around wight the settings and in the end, it finally worked. JD was trying to save battery by disconnecting mobile data all the time

I can't remember what i did to make it disappear! But, i too tried for HOURS to get it back...with (obviously) no success! JD is clearly very popular and it works, butttt i can't see myself DL'ing that thing again....

Yep...it sucks....doesn't it? Oh well! Actually the system reset gave me a chance to revamp my phone a bit! I DL'ed some new apps, a new music player, got rid some old apps etc. So...maybe it wasn't so bad after all.

I kinda have the same problem. My Samsung Infuse keeps losing the data connection. Even when its turned on. It'll lose the data & then it'll come back randomly, this happens all throughout the day. It won't allow me to send texts, call or go on the internet. Its so annoying. I dont know whats wrong & i don't know how to fix this /:
