Mine has been doing that frequently since the last update. Factory reset didn't help. I live in strong 4g area and this never happened before the update. Spent some time on phone and in store with tech support but their only solution is factory reset or replacement with refurb. I read somewhere that someone fixed a similar problem by replacing the sim card but even trying to do that has been difficult. The guy in the store said he wouldn't do it, on the phone they keep telling me they will mail me one but it never comes. Incompetence! I'm hoping enough people have this problem that they will fix it with an update, but I'm not holding my breath. Plus the problems caused by the next update could be worse than those it fixes.

I've also heard that they have been doing work on the antenna's.

Happened to me all day today. I usually get 4g 24/7 and i had nothing, not even 1x for half the day. Just got it back.

Is there an update on this? Do you guys know if this is a nationwide thing? I live in DC and the only way I can get 4G these days is if I restart my TB, otherwise it's 3G/1X land.

Same with me. It happens. Usually it will do it when I go some place. It always comes back though

Well changing the sim card didn't help, if anything it made it worse. I am in Baltimore, and when I call tech support they tell me there are no issues with the towers. Looks like our only hope is gingerbread at this point. I guess I will just leave my phone on 3g in the mean time, at least that way I can use the internet uninterrupted. Remind me why I bought a 4g phone again?

It may be premature to say I have fixed this problem on my bolt but I have been locked on to strong 4g and now have full bars of signal for 2 hours. I called *228 this updates something with the towers, you are supposed to do this now and then but I always forget. The tech guy at my job reminded me, it's a shame the 10+ people at verizon wireless tech support I spoke to didn't think of it. It's so nice to go online again without losing connectivity every couple of minutes. I hope this helps you guys too!

*228 does not work on 4g phones

Really? Because when I do it my phone says the roaming capabilities have been updated, which is what *228 does. Have you actually tried it or are you just repeating something someone told you once? Maybe it is just my imagination that it has made my signal stronger and more reliable. Anyway, people having this problem can try it, it doesn't cost anything.
