A clue to the 'no data' issue?

This should be for VZW tech support to take note: The pattern I've noticed, is that when I get the dreaded 'no data connectivity' box popping up, my signal strength can be strong but yet I show no signal type by the signal bars (3G, 4G, 1X). Until a signal type shows up, I can never get data regardless of how many bars I've got. This pattern seems to repeat every time I can't get data. This seems to happen in either solid 3G areas or mixed 3G $ 4G areas.

Anyone else notice this?

This happens to me from time to time but only when I'm in my bathroom. Must be some kind of dead zone.

It's not actually a dead zone since I'll be sitting in the same spot and after several minutes the phone decides to show the 3G marker and the data resumes. Something is causing it to drop the awareness of a 3G signal which results in the 'non-defined' full bar signal that contains no data.

Samsung & VZW have got to figure out what is going on. If it's hardware, there's no solution for current Charge owners.
