Anyone experiencing wifi to 3g transition issues

[akalmand]

Just noticed that when I leave my home, my nexus does not transition to 3g. I had to manually restart the device to get it connected to 3g (thrice now in a row). I tried it at home as well by disabling wifi. The bars goes grey and don't go back to blue with 3g sign.

Using juice defender?

Nope. I installed it long time back but uninstalled right after I did not like/understand its control.

i also had this problem once. Had to restart, even after trying to go airplane and manually turning on only 3g mode. Odd

Never mind. Figured it out. I had data enabler widget installed (although it was set to 'data on' all the time). After uninstalling it, the transition seems better.

This is common for me on my nexus...for my wife on her bionic...and for my previous droid razr. I just toggle the 4g on and then back off and that seems to do the trick. Rebooting takes too long.
Fyi!

I have this happen too. I haven't tried to toggle 4G and then 3G, but I tried the fix that was presented after the 4G network option. I did a shut down, pulled my battery, pulled my 4G card, put it back in, put the battery back in and then turned it back on. It worked. But it's frustrating since I'd like to stay on WiFi at home since I'm in a 3G area at home.

I was having that trouble the first few days I had the GN, but it has been fine since then. If you are in a 3G only area, make sure you have it set for CDMA only, and try a power down and pull the battery. I haven't had any trouble since I did that.
