When I get home to the far suburbs, I am connected using EDGE. The device will not connect to EDGE for data and has to be soft reset several times in order for it to connect. There appears to be no problem with voice; just data. I also notice that the battery discharges rapidly when this happens. So far, it has happened every day this week. I am thinking another hard reset is in order but I am definitely not looking forward to it, as I have a lot of applications on the device. Anyone else experiencing this problem or have a suggestion about what's causing it and what to do about it?

Man, I had this problem for six months, ATT had no clue.
I posted on every forum I could find: Several on this one,XDA,PPCGeeks,ATT. I found no fix. Exchange the phone if you can. My problems started when I went to work in a non 3G area. After that, The problems you describe started happening at my home area. I can never get more than 2 bars of 3G at home. Everywhere else it's 5. A friend brought his brand new Tilt over so I could put some apps on it, his tilt had full bars and it downloaded data about 3x faster than mine. ATT went as far as working on the tower in my area(1 mile from my house) and that hasn't helped. Two weeks ago, I quit and called to get a replacement. The problems have not surfaced with this one, but I still only get 2 bars 3G signal. You can do a search on my posts to see if someone had any other suggestions.(They were so long ago, I quit checking them)
My mistake.
