    I don't know why it happens, but when it does a battery pull takes care of it.

    I tried a battery pull with no results. Also tried registering the Host Routing table.

    Finally, I deleted and reinstalled the gmail app: this seemed to work. I feel like I am using a sledgehammer to swat a fly. Hopefully someone has a better solution.

    It use to happen to me a lot as well. Full strength etc.

    I just wait it out and it always resolves itself. I know it is not the answer you are looking for but

    Same here. Been more with Boost 8350i's. Battery pull or soft reset alt+right shift
    +del. Good ole 3 finger salute.
