Data connection

[jackjack1969]

I don't know if it's me, T-Mobile or my luck at buying phones, but every phone I've owned since Note 4 on T-Mobile has a problem reconnecting to the internet after I go through a dead area. I live out on the edge of Tmobile Network so sometimes I drive through dead zones. Every single time I lose the internet signal, my phone will not reconnect when I get back into coverage. Like I said I've went through about 3 Note 4's, the Note 7, a couple S7 edges and my new Note 8. I have to refresh the data connection through Network Operators, then turn airplane mode on and off and then the phone will reconnect. For a thousand dollar phone, this is starting to get old. Am I the only one this happens to?

I had that issue with tmobile as well. One of the reasons I've switched.

Maybe you should think about switching providers?

Hey everyone, i have been having this annoying error/pop-up/notification that has been bothering me since i got the Note 8. Everytime i turn on the screen to unlock it, i get the "Network connection failed" message. You can see it on my lock screen here:

Now, this happens, when i have cell signal at full bars, LTE or Wi-Fi and at all different locations. I tried resetting the phone, adding the apps without any sort of backup, deleting apps, switching my carriers APN, I tried replacing the phone but it always comes back.

I tried contacting Samsung but they are clueless as to what i am taking about.

Does anyone have any suggestions into how i could proceed to fix this, or is anyone aware of what the problem is?

EDIT: I apologize, this is the wrong place to post.

I would but they're so much cheaper. I complain about the $1,000 phone but I can put up with it to save $50 a month. I just thought maybe someone had a fix or something
