I'm finding that on occasion the phone stays disconnected from 2g/3g even when returning to an area with signal. I've not found a particular pattern except that it almost seems as if it "gives up".
A colleague has similar behaviour (same operator/device/location)
I'm on the "3" network in the UK. Despite relatively decent coverage in the general area I lose cover
- at home (except in some upstairs room)
- at work (large site - some areas work, office is just about ok at desk, walking around will loose it)
An additional complexity is that in the uk 3 operate only a 3G network. They have an agreement with another operator for 2/2.5/2.75 cover (orange) and the phone will ROAM onto this network quite happily. I believe they even have in-call handover sorted and think all handsets are in the roaming partners HLR
Any thoughts on what may cause this. I think the network/roaming may be a contributory factor. I think I only ever see it when in a dodgy coverage area but surely ultimately the phone itself should be retrying - even only occasionally.
Does anyone else seem similar behaviour
Wifi is unaffected as is general operation of the handset
On a related topic, any good pointers on the GSM modules on the N900 - especially api/dbus messages etc? source code? (assume it's proprietary) -- wondering if it might be possible to "prod" the module every say 20 mins just as a fallback.
