No data connection with 3 bars and LTE

[Tiny_48]

I get "no internet connection" errors when trying to browse, send messages, etc. while my phone shows three bars and LTE.

I have to turn on and off airplane mode to regain data connectivity, but it only seems to last a few minutes.

I've restarted, resetted network settings and taken the SIM out.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

When you say you reset network settings, did this also include updating Profile and PRL?

[Tiny_48]

Profile and PRL? No, sir. Never heard of it before. Will look it up now and try it.

If you can't find it in the settings, try dialing the following in your phone app which will initiae the process as well as renegotiate the connection to the network upon completion.

Ok, I completed a PRL update. The problem seems to continue ☹️

Any other ideas?

Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the iPhone devices to know what else to check. Hoping a Sprint rep will pop in and beable to help.

Shouldn't be an issue, but may want to post your zipcode and nearest cross streets in case it comes up. Not completely out of the question that theres a network issue going on, but worth putting the information out there so they can look.

Hey there! Sorry to hear you are having network issues. Please post your closest cross streets and ZIP code so we can take a look at the towers provided in your area.

I've noticed it while I'm anywhere inside zip code 80840.

Thanks for the help!

We have reviewed the area. The towers around ZIP 80840 are working fine, there are no reported issues. Do you know if any other Sprint user is having issues? Does this issue happen inside your home or outside?

It happens inside and outside my office. Can't really tell if it happens in my house because reception there has always been bad/extremely limited. I rely on WiFi at home. Never had this problem in the past at work with this iPhone 6S over the past year or before with an iPhone 6.

I've been having this same issue with my 6s for over a month. I've taken it to two stores and both technicians kept it to run diagnostics or whatever. Said the phon is fine. I'm in area codes groom 90005 to 90043. It's happening ALL THE TIME. At work, at home, the store, on wifi, off wifi. It's so frustrating. Can't play videos. Can't access websites. My voicemails won't play. I generally have 1 or 2 bars. Making/receiving calls no problems. Anything data or network related...problem.

Can you help me?
