I recently bought a new Pixel 7 Pro and installed GOS. I have Tracfone as a service provider. I have the APN set and everything works...sometimes. While the messaging and phone work fine, data has been the issue. The mobile network state sometimes stays connected, and other times disconnects and then says disconnected. It doesn't seem to be a time of day issue, and I have service bars showing. At first I thought it was a Tracfone issue, but after hours of customer service I don't think that is the case. More and more I'm beginning to suspect it's a GOS issue. I have also considered the possibility it could be SIM card related, but this is a new SIM card.
It seems this may be related to the wifi being flipped on or off, but I am unsure. I want to normally run wifi when possible to not use my available data, so I have data switched off. When I go to use data, I flip wifi off and data on. Half the time, it seems to work, and the other half the mobile network state becomes disconnected. I have even tried leaving data on when wifi is running and it still doesn't work sometimes once I disable wifi. What I do know is that if it isn't working, I can flip airplane mode on and off and the network state will flip to connected after a few seconds. I only discovered that recently. Restarting the phone also has had some success.
Anyone have any thoughts about this or the same issue? Thanks.
