No Service until reboot

[PogoMips]

Hi,

lately I experienced something weird with my phone. It's now the second time this week that this happens to me.
I've had the phone since it first came out and I never had this problem before.
At some point I'll get "No Service" and the phone never regains it. The first time I noticed it, it lost the service at work and I noticed it at home, where I usually have full bars.
But I still did not get any until I rebooted the phone. It looks like this in the battery usage screen



Someone got any ideas?

You could try going in and out of airplane mode, to save the time of a reboot.

It could be related to a problem with the carrier. Who are you using?

 

[PogoMips]

Okay, I'll try that next time.. Does not seem like the optimal solution still..

I'm with AT&T

This happens to me about every 3 or 4 weeks since I've had the phone - the little signal strength icon is empty, and if I try to make a call it tells me 'no service'. Toggling airplane mode doesn't fix it, but a reboot does. I don't think it is my carrier, AT&T, because I never experienced the problem with my previous phone (iPhone 4). Did anyone find any solutions?

Was wifi involved such as connected to a wifi network then going out of range of wifi before turning wifi off?

I don't think WiFi was involved.. Certainly not today when it happened - I was at home in constant range of WiFi.

I am having the exact same issue. Just switched from Iphone 4 too. I have an AT&T SIM from Straight Talk.

Just got off the line with Straight Talk support. They are showing no issues with the network. So it must be a Jelly Bean issue... Interestingly, I turned off WIFI be fore my last reboot and have not lost signal yet, which is the longest it has gone... Phone worked great the first two days I owned it.

Signal's gone again :| Gotta use the old phone for the time being

Ok, well, I went thru everything Google Play support suggested, culminating in a full factory reset where I did not restore my apps and settings. The issue persisted. Google is sending me a new phone in exchange for the old one. The issue that has caused this remains a mystery, unfortunately. Hopefully it won't rear its head with the new phone!

Interesting. I've noticed mine (same ST AT&T) has been doing that a lot lately. I didn't know if it was my rom (XenonHD--very unlikely) or the phone. Let us know what happens with your new phone. I've had mine since the new sales in February. Thanks.

I have the same thing happen a couple of times a week. Thought at first it was the area that I'm in (Chicago), but no, it is also happening at home (Detroit) where i used to have a really good connection. I'm TMO and this did not happen with my last phone (NexS). It takes a full reboot to get service back and seems to have something to do with WIFI and BTH when both are off service loss is days away. Since BTH stutters i don't use that much any more. This has been the worst phone i have ever owned.
