I’ve used GS290 for over a year now. Wifi is always turned off, I use the 4g network.
Lately I sometimes have lost 4g network, and need to stop and restart ‘mobile network’. Sometimes I have to set ‘plane mode’ for some seconds. I didn’t find a pattern in this behavior. this already happened before the last update.
Last night I charged my phone, this morning I had lost 4g connection. It would not restart.
So I restarted the phone, and now all my apps are scrambled from where I put them on my homepage. in alphabetical order.
Still no 4g network.
did my phone update while charging? is something else going on?
I’m on V1 14r
I had trouble with all mobile data dropping and I ended up deleting Carrier Services using adb in the computer terminal and I haven’t had a problem dropping data since, unless I just happen to be in an area with bad cell service like normal.
No idea what went wrong in your phone exactly (maybe other GS290-users can say more).
In order to fix mobile data you may first doublecheck “APN”-settings in your phone:
System settings → network → mobile network → (scroll down, expand menu) → access points (APN)
Compare APN-parameters with your carrier´s recommended settings and apply accordingly, carriers usually provide info on the parameters somewhere online.
Thank you for the fast replies. I appologize for shaking the tree, because my problem was not /e/ related. It was a nationwide problem with my provider. Sorry guys
However it was an odd coincidence for it to happen at the same time my apps got scrambled.
When this happens to users for no obvious reason I speculate that there is a high chance some internal or external event puts intolerable stress on Bliss.
Setting > Apps & notification > See all apps > BlissLauncher > Storage > Clear storage and Clear Cache
will put you back to alphabetical order – maybe that looks random too !?
Yes that might look confusing … but from how I read the header of the linked thread, the “ramdomness” refers to the event happening seemingly out of the blue and not to the way the aps -icons are displayed/ordered on hte homescreen
another thread suggested that the protonmail app is the culprit to this alphabetically scrambling. Might just be correct as I do have that installed.
No problems during 14 months of prior use though…
