I keep getting short network dropouts on o2 with the srreak. This is my second streak so its not an isolated case. Amyone else experienced this?

sometimes
There is an app called No Signal Alert which notifys you when you lose signal. When I use that it logs drops, but all drops are for no more that a second and I have never dropped a call.
btw This is also a good app for monitoring yoou signal strength (http://android.modaco.com/content/dell-streak-streak-modaco-com/311813/mobile-signal-widget/)
Note: There is currently an issue with K9 email events causing the Streak to drop network connection of an instant. So I am unsure what is causing mine.
Thanks man that would make sense as i am using k9. Hopefully it will be addressed with the 2.2 update

Any app killer can be a good cause of this as sometime they kill the core process
worth looking into it
Welcome to o2, not quite the at&t of the uk but not far off

Are o2 really that bad? Been with orange for 3 years never had any problems. It must be the network as im not using an app killer

Does anyone else have a problem where wireless tether seems to cause the network connection to become intermittent and sometimes a page won't load?

mines worked perfectly so far, and that's in an area with subpar reception too.
Ive got the latest version of wireless tether for the inc too. I know its not a signal problem, I have a Verizon tower 2 miles from my house and get great 3g reception indoors.

The new versions wifi has problems with me. The version that comes with the 10 minute root video/package, seems to work. I'm having a problem at the moment because I upgraded on accident with a new rom. In the process of trying to fix that.

Is this just me or are other people experiencing problems with 3g randomly dropping. Ill be using the internet and next thing I know I get no service even though I'm sat in same place....

That is a common occurence, currently I use my iphone sim and this happens a fair bit. I believe its more of a software issue hope this will be resolved when 2.1 comes out.

Anyone using the 2.1 update in the UK. Notice if the constant. Network dropouts have been fixed?

I am and have not had a single drop out on 1.6 or 2.1
I get them all the time and everywhere. Very annoying when the data drops out too.
my signal jumps from 5 to 1 to nothing while I'm .just sat at my desk. It does.it at.home too.

I was on a 2 hour conference call to North America in a weak signal spot (in the countryside in the UK) on 2.1 and didn't have a problem.
Same Problem
I have the same drop out problem on my 1.6 O2 Streak. It goes from 5 bars to nothing without any intimation!
Also, it takes long to connect calls. Is there any improvement in connection time in 2.1?
US Streak flashed to 2.1
No dropouts or delays.
Had 24/7 drop outs with 1.6.
Haven't had a single drop out since going to 2.1...but have had many worse issues lol
Phone shows 3-4 bars of 3G and I get nothing but errors like , Page unavailable...this app needs data connection....etc. Sometimes if I disable mobile network and re-enable it it will work for a few minutes but then gone. Am I the only one ? I searched briefly . Nothing informative . Help please .
Call att and tell them to connect you to the specialist, i had the same problem and i was literally on the phone with him for 10 seconds and he fixed it

Sometimes it does similar to me. It will sit there and go from 3g to edge to 3g to edge. I've taken to just using 2g when I have wifi, then 3g when I want mobile data. Although now that I had the phone for a while, I kind of know where 3g is strong.

2 when typing the keyboard disappears after I hit the period.

Please help....

Def update to 318. My 2.2 was hella quirky before doing that.

Go under setting/wireless & network settings/ mobile networks... And the data enabled is what turns on ur data. Unless ur talking about just turning off 3g. And I believe thy make wigets to go from edge to 3g

I go to settings>wireless and networks>mobile networks>network mode
And switch from GSM/WCDMA to GSM Only. This changes it from HSDPA/3G to Edge.
I have to admit i'm not sure why, but it does.
I only get one bar on H, but four bars on E @ my house, so I switch it all the time. I have WIFI @ home for data anyway...
I also miss having access to the network setting from the upper right corner of 1.6
Not sure why they took that away since the icons are still there...
