Workarounds to dropped data connection?

[anon(5325135)]

I'm searching for the workarounds that have worked for people regarding the data issue. My data just stopped this morning after rebooting it for the first time (which now I regret).

Anyone willing to help? Please and thank you in advance.

P.S. If you're just going to suggest to wait for the update April 16, I know, but at least a temporary workaround at the moment. Monday! And it's Wednesday! :| Don't bother posting if you're just going to say wait for the update.

Oh yeah, great -_- I know that. But a workaround! Read the thread title.

I followed the instructions posted here:

And it fixed my problem, although it's most likely temporary. My data stopped working yesterday but as soon as I made the changes outlined in that post, data is back. For how long, who knows? Hopefully I'll make it to Monday.

Here is what worked for me both the times I've lost data connection when I rebooted the deice.

Hope this helps... Hang in there buddy..

Swap phones at ATT store to see if you can get a device that is working properly or wait till 16th where software will release.

my device seems to be ok.

Well this can be marked as solved.

None of these workarounds worked though. I had to contact AT&T and they reset the network settings and it worked afterward. Hope it can hold onto Monday.

I had this problem all morning. I tried 2 different APN settings, and tried removing the APN settings and restarting. Nothing worked. The thing that finally got it working was a "battery pull" by holding down the power button until the phone turns off, and then turning it back on.
