All of a sudden.. my 7290 gets "no network". I don't know why? It would search search search.. and get a signal for maybe 30 mins or so..and then drop the signal for another 30.. and then find it.. etc...

not.. the area i'm in always has full reception.

Does anyone know whats going on???

I'm using OS 4.1

Drop it recently? Sounds like the antenna ribbon has become disconnected...
Its easy to fix if you're comfortable opening your device.

Of course I'd recommend rebooting the device (remove and reinsert battery) first. If the issue is still there, try elminating a coverage problem (sometimes cell sites go down) by trying the device elsewhere.
