Full scale, but no data

I had an interesting experience today... I was in Milledgeville, GA, all day, and had no data connection whatsoever all day long.

 

That's the first time that's ever happened... no data connection at all. I'm interested in thoughts about why that might be.

Which part of milledgeville? My sisters husband and in-laws are all from there, I went to visit them last week before heading to florida and I had great signal and data speeds where over 1meg(around the mall area anyway) . Now about half way to macon from milledgeville I was roaming ever so often but that lasted for about 10 minutes or so which was expected since there is nothing out there until you get closer to macon.

At the mall, at Wal-Mart on 441, along the bypass, at McDonald's on the south side... every where we went, no data. I just found it odd that there wasn't any connection at all, even with full signal strength.

 

Milledgeville's long had Wimax 4G, and until yesterday, I've never had any problems at all with data connections there.

Oh ok, I was in that area as well and 3g was running great(a week ago), in either case though, they may very well be doing upgrades in the area. From west of macon, through gray and east of milledgeville, 5 towers have been confirmed to be upgraded recently.

      Okay.  I just pulled the Location permission with the app running, and I think it may have closed and immediately reopened.  But I got a notification telling me that "Permission required" while the app itself just said "Waiting for update.." with a spinning circle.  Once I tapped on the "Permission required" notification, it popped up asking for location permission which I then granted. - Trip

      Thanks! There have been some recent changes to Android permissions requirements that were not documented very well and caused a tremendous amount of problems, especially for users who recently updated to Android 14. Thankfully I have some decent monitoring and diagnostics in place so I was eventually able to figure out what was going on. I'm basically looking for testers to mess around with revoking/denying/granting permissions to make sure the app doesn't crash and the workflow/warnings are reasonably clear. I do know that if you revoke/grant permissions while the app is in use, the app sometimes requires a restart (or at least as swipe out and back in) to get the proper prompting, but it's difficult to control 100% of the scenarios with the amount of background work SCP does with methods that require special permission.

      So I revoked the permissions before doing the update on my S21FE (Android 12) and when I reopened, it asked me for the permissions, which I granted.  No crashes, all went smoothly.  Is that what you wanted?  If so, I can repeat on a few of my other post-10 devices.  If not, let me know what to do differently. - Trip

      A new SignalCheck beta release is rolling out now.. this includes several bugfixes, notably issues on Android 10+ devices when Location permission was not granted, and on Android 14 devices when "Allow all the time" Location permission was not granted but the app was configured to launch at device boot. Please test this version by temporarily revoking permissions for SCP and ensure the app does not crash -- it will not work very well due to Android security requirements, but that's the point..
