dropped phone

hi all,

i dropped my phone just the other morning and the mobile data stopped ie whatever app i tried to go on it just kept on saying you have no mobile data, i thought maybe i snapped the wire inside or something has come loose

anyway in the evening i tried it again and to my suprise mobile data was back as i could stream bbc iplayer and internet

both times i was on the train so i know i was using my mobile data instead of wifi

i really dont get this as electronic stuff is either on or off so how come i had this wierd problem

Did you phone say 3G/4G/H+/LTE with associated signal bars? If you only see signal bars but no data symbol, then mobile data is off.

yes it was showing H/H+

I'd chock it up to a coincidence. If you phone displays an H/H+ and has signal, the phone is fine, from time to time mobile data just stops working. Happens here in the states quite often.

but what im saying is if i dropped it and it stopped working it wouldnt just miraculously just work again, would it?

Probably not, which helps to prove my point.
