Lost Data Connection Notification When Roaming - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was in England the last 2 days,i was just using wi-fi when there but it constantly gave a notification that there was no data connection in the notification bar, i unticked use packet data and obviously i didn't have data roaming selected but the notification would always reappear even after clearing it, not a big deal but does anyone know how this notification kept showing and can i prevent it from happening again?

no one know about this?

I've exactly the same problem. I was told to just keep the packet data and roaming box ticked. But to me that just seems silly. It has to be a bug as the s2 didn't have this problem.

[Q] Roaming notification can't be silenced?

For the last couple of weeks, I've been going in and out of roam in my office on my EVO 3D (which Sprint support has been useless for). Just got my EVO LTE yesterday and was hoping that it might have better signal strength, but alas I'm still in and out of roam. However, the problem is now with my EVOLTE, it always give audible notification whenever I go into roam, no matter what the settings. I've turned off all roaming notifications and have set the phone itself to both vibrate and silent, but still get the audible notifications. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?
I dont know what I did but I have the problem at my office- Signal is horrible and will roam at times and I dont hear anything like a roam notification.
EDIT: Go into Settings and click on Mobile Network. From there uncheck data roaming sound and click on roaming guards, make sure domestic voice and data are unchecked.
That should work!
Thanks for the response, but I've tried all that and still get the audible notification. I'll keep screwing with settings I guess.

Internal time/date glitch?

Using my phone today it seems the time that some of my apps reference has gotten screwed up. The clock/date in the taskbar is correct as is the time/date in settings, but for example two text messages were listed under 1/1/2014, and my 3G Watchdog app restarted it's data counter thinking that another months data cycle had started. Whats strange is that only two text messages showed up under 1/1/2014...the following messages showed up under the current (i.e. correct) date of 11/27/13 without me doing anything. I had to clear the data of the 3G Watchdog app to get it to count from the correct date, unfortunately loosing my past monthly records which kind of pisses me off but whatever.
Any idea why this happened? Thinking back I remember seeing a weird glitch in monthly records within 3G Watchdog on my old Droid Bionic...

3G/4G icon goes away when making a call?

What issue is this? I would have full bars but no 3g/4g icon on the notification bar. I click on the internet, and it would say no data. or "retry" or something along the lines of no data communication.
That is the first issue.
Second issue: When I make calls, anyone notice that the 3g/4g icon disappears on the notification bar? Is that normal?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
By the way, I can't make a call either when I don't see the 33/4g icon... no data, no calls... but full bars. HELP!
Is this a phone issue, a network issue? Who do I goto for help?
If you happen to know anybody else on Sprint in the same area, you might see if they are having similar issues. It's possible Sprint is doing network maintenance/upgrades in your area. If not, you should first try updating profile and PRL from a Sense ROM. Afterwards, if the issue persists, you can do a reset from your dialer menu (##72786#) using a Sense ROM. You can also try ##786#. Just hit the menu button and choose the reset option. Be warned that ##786# will reset your phone as though you're doing a factory reset, but it will essentially reprovision your service. You'll need to be on a Sense ROM to do any of the things I've mentioned above.
As far as the correlation between 3G and the signal bars, the bars indicate voice signal strength, not data signal.

Annoying Data Popup Message

Hey everybody,
Does anyone know how to disable annoying popup messages related to Mobil Data while connected to WIFI? Here's the background; I used to be with Verizon and was one of the treasured unlimited data participants until they recently decided to once again screw their most loyal customers with increases on costs. I left VZW and went to Straight Talk utilizing the 4G LTE Verizon network. Before under VZW, I don't remember my wife's phone showing a message that she could not browse the internet, send email, etc, unless connected to data with the exception of using WIFI. Well since switching over to ST, I've created Tasker Profiles which simulate Juice Defender and turn off mobile data as soon as it is connected to our home WIFI. About every two minutes it popups a messages saying the following:
Title Splash:
Mobile data
Message Content:
Unless you use WI-FI, you will no linger be able to use the Internet, Email or other apps that require a data connection.
Turn off the mobile data connection?
I've attached a screenshot of the message.
How can I disable to popup? I'm sure there's a way to do if someone can point me in the right direction.... Thanks
I should also clarify that the popup returns regardless if you select Okay or Cancel. I even enable Data and still returns.
I found this thread which apparently the issue seems to be related to apps that turn off data or turn it on using automation.

Phone notification?

I've recently started getting notification from "Phone" saying Selected service is unavailable (see screenshot). I know there is no network, as its a network blackspot but I've never received these notifications before!
I've been into Notification settings for "Phone" but there are so many options. I've turned them all off and that seemed to clear but then I'm concerned might not get notifications when like I'm using my mobile phone what it is intended for!
Any suggestions as what to disable?
Thanks
Settings/Wireless and Network/Mobile Network/Carrier/ then choose Automatic selection
Bizarre. I had all that set and was still showing the notification.
Changed it so I chose a specific network, then back to automatic, rebooted and it appears to have sorted. Will wait and see...
Thanks
