Methods to fix Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro connectivity and signal loss issue
Multiple Google Pixel 7 and 7 Pro users are reporting cellular connectivity issues.
Some users have also claimed that after inserting their SIM cards in their Google Pixel 7 and 7 Pro devices, they get network bars and can make phone calls. However, they can’t access cellular data services after a little while and receive ‘No network’ or ‘No service’ pop-ups following frequent network failures.
We understand that this could be a frustrating experience, but we have simple troubleshooting methods that could help fix this problem.
1. Install OTA Update [New]
Google has rolled out an OTA update for its Pixel 7 series. It is just a 72 MB set-up and takes over an hour to install. However, it could fix the connectivity issues. You need to head to Settings, navigate to System, and then to System Update. Now, you should be able to see a new System Update—Hit Install (or resume) to proceed further.
After installing the update, hit restart and check if this fixes the connectivity issues.
2. Switch SIM slots
You can also try removing the SIM from the current slot and inserting it in the other. Check if you still face network issues.
3. Toggle airplane mode
You can also try refreshing your device’s cellular settings by turning on and off the airplane mode of your device. This fix does work with a success rate, but the issue could resurface after an hour or two. This is again pretty simple- navigate to Settings and head to Network and Internet. Here, you can enable the toggle next to Airplane Mode. Now, wait for a moment and then disable airplane mode. In most cases, this should fix the connectivity and signal loss issue.
4. Boot to Safe Mode
There is a high possibility that a third-party app or service is interfering with the working of your device. The best way to rectify this issue is to boot your device to safe mode.
In that mode, all third-party apps and services will be disabled. So, if you stop facing any network or connectivity issues, that third-party app or service was the disruptor. You can boot in normal mode and uninstall the recently installed apps. In all probability, this will fix your connectivity issues permanently.
5. Disable 5G
Instability in the 5G network could be another reason you may face network or connectivity issues. Therefore, you should consider switching over to a 4G network using the following instructions-
- Head over to the Setting menu.
- Navigate to Network and Internet, and tap on SIMs.
- Now go to the preferred Network type and select 4G/LTE from the list.
- Check if this allows seamless network connection issues.
6. Disable 2G
Not many are aware of this, but the 2G network still remains enabled on your devices. It can also conflict with your 4G/ 5G network and create connectivity issues. So, you should consider disabling it and checking if it does the trick.
7. Disable adaptive connectivity
The adaptive connectivity feature devices what is best for you between 4G and 5G. For example, it will automatically switch to 4G if you are using an instant messaging app or Uber, and switch to 5G when streaming a movie on Netflix. However, this feature could conflict with the mobile networks and cause signal loss. So, you can consider disabling this feature and testing if your device is working properly.
8. Disable Dual SIM Dual Standby
The dual SIM Dual Standby feature allows both SIM cards to function together. What if the signal from the auxiliary SIM card affects your main SIM card. You can also disable Dual SIM Dual Standby mode and enable the SIM card you need. This should help you fix the connectivity and signal loss issue.
So, that’s all for today. I hope this guide helped you to fix Google Pixel 7 and 7 Pro Connectivity and Signal Loss Issue. For more troubleshooting guides, follow GetDroidTips!
But there is no OTA update yet in my device in pixel 7 pro
Hi. Just I want to know about the net work
Wishing I had decided to try for a new battery on my Pixel 5 instead of downgrading to this turd. Hopefully the February update fixes this issue.
I have the latest update but the phone still having signal loss
It’s somewhat of an issue Google hasn’t solved this. It’s been going on for quite a while now.
I have the latest update, and jumping through that many loops in other to fix something that shouldn’t be an issue to begin it, is beyond frustrating.
I don’t get this recommendation: “Disable Dual SIM Dual Standby”
If you have two sims in use, it’s probasbly because both sims are needed.
The only thing I’ve found that works everytime, is restarting the phone.
Yeah same here, have to reboot multiple times a day, it keeps failing. Up to march update my phone was working fine, no connectivity issues, but since then it’s a nightmare.
I’ve issued a Google Support ticket but they have been “looking into it” for over a month with no outcome.
Reluctantly going to switch back to Apple soon.
Thanks for the guide !
Pixel 7 pro also facing internet connection issue.
Off the phone, wait a minute and on back still no connection issue.
Really frustrating.
Yeah, I’ve had ongoing issues since february but thought it was the bad weather. I got a mew phone cause I thought that was the problem only to be met by this warranty replaced same problem.
I tried these and nothing worked. Then an alert came up saying that the app “Whate3Words” kept stopping. I uninstalled this app and signal went from (-111 to -118) to (-87 to -91) and crystal clear talking and a high signal. Check your apps and especially What3Words. Hope this helps.
My Pixel 7 Pro cellular connectivity problems started in approx March and after trying all the above suggestions and waiting 3 months for a software fix. I returned the phone to the retailer I bought it from (Currys UK) and their repair centre sent a replacement unit. It had April’s software on it and it worked fine. I updated to the most recent software (June 23 update) and it still worked fine. So from my experience, the solution is to get a new handset under warranty.
same here i have to restart 2 or 3 times a day they need to fix this…pronto
finally got myself a pixle 7 pro after hearing good things about it, BUT im losing data connection like crazy, i’ll be in the middle of watching a video on Youtube with LTE on and it just stops working and switches to EDGE. kinda upset with it but we’ll see what happens….
