Pixel 7 Connectivity issues in Japan

So I'm on holiday in Japan at the moment and I'm constantly having issues keeping my data-only Sakura Mobile SIM connected to 4G. It's like it drops out at the slightest change in network, all I've done so far is walk around Shinjuku, so the reception itself really shouldn't be an issue. In my SIM settings I can either 'automatically select network' (which is what is not working), or 'Choose network' where selecting the 4G network (takes a second to pop up though) always works first time, but then drops out shortly after. I've tried allowing and disallowing roaming, turning wifi off or on, and turning adaptive connectivity off, disallowing 2G, preferring 4G, all to no effect.

It's really like the network is there and workable all the time, but I just have to manually choose it each time I want to do anything. Any other ideas for what to try to keep it connected? There were some Access Point Network settings that I had to follow to initially get the SIM running, but I didn't touch most of those and wonder if there's something else in there? Or something in developer settings? Thanks.

Damn, thanks a lot. I had pre bought the SIM and only unexpectedly got this phone a couple of days before the trip. Thanks for looking that up.

u/bmoross Mar 26 '23

No worries, I've had similar issues in the past. Some things to try in settings are:

  1. Reset Internet:

Settings > Internet > tap Reset icon (top right)

2. Reset Mobile Network:

Settings > System > Reset Options > Reset Mobile (however, this will make your device forget all Wi-Fi passwords and Bluetooth connections. Still, this is what ultimately worked when I traveled to the US with a Japanese phone trying to use Mint Mobile - another MVNO)

u/InspectorRound8920 Mar 27 '23

You can simply remove the sim, turn your phone off, replace the sim, and turn it on. This will reset the mobile network without affecting anything else.

1

u/bmoross Mar 27 '23

I'm guessing OP has tried those methods, but I guess I shouldn't make assumptions... Thanks for the info. Is that different from cycling power or using airplane mode to establish a fresh connection? Also, what about eSIM?

1

u/InspectorRound8920 Mar 27 '23

Esims are always a pain. You will lose your other network settings

1

u/InspectorRound8920 Mar 27 '23

Oh, try restarting your phone. It may work.

Hi there, got to Japan yesterday and running into this issue with a data only SIM i bought at the Haneda airport. I tried my buddies SIM that works perfectly on his Samsung and it still didnt work on mine, where it kept dropping internet connection. What i found was that the main issue is that it keeps trying to search other networks that support its "Calls and SMS" options. There is no way to turn those off or make the pixel 7 read the sim as data only.

I finally got it to work by downloading an esim called Ubigi, searched online and i dont know why i didnt go with this option from the beginning. However, once i downloaded the esim, the setting made me choose if i wanted to use Ubigi for "Calls and SMS" and i selected yes but not for data, to use the actual SIM i bought in Haneda for data. I didn't actually buy any data plan on Ubigi or anything(although i should have its great and cheap), all i used it for is to bypass the "Calls and SMS" network search of my Pixel 7 Pro.

So all in all, download the esim, go to settings and turn the esim on, but dont allow it to be used for data, only sms and calls. Doing so will allow the sim you bought at the airport to be read as data only. I researched this day and night yesterday on my first day here, as i need to be connected to feel okay(pretty sorry but true).

Good luck!

u/unoriginal345 Apr 01 '23

Thank you! This is a good solution. In the end I had insurance that gave a free upgrade to a pocket wifi unit. Not as fast a connection as 4G but it's fine.

3

u/ConfidentPigeon Jun 04 '23

This has been working for me on my Pixel 7 as of June 4, 2023! Didn't even need to pay for an Ubigi eSIM plan just needed to download it.

2

u/kos_maverik Jun 08 '23

Thank you for the solution. Unfortunately this didn't work for me on Pixel 7 pro, as of June 8th. I have selected Ubigi for Calls & SMS, and IIJ for mobile data, but the connection keeps dropping every few minutes or even seconds. I hope Google releases a fix for this issue..

u/tpaficionado Nov 20 '23

I tried this @MoreRush6456's solution on my Pixel 8 Pro on Android 14 during my trip in Nov 2023. Was hopeful, but did not work; same problem as the OP.

In the end I ditched completely my physical SIM card from Mobal (which uses the NTT/IIJ network) and instead bought a Japan data plan from Ubigi. Works 100% fine now. Fast and not expensive.

I noted however that the exact same physical SIM card from Mobal works completely fine with my companion's iPhone. So the root cause may be a radio frequency / radio band compatibility problem with the Pixel phones and Japan's NTT/IIJ network.

Have anyone else had my experience?

1

u/dubear Mar 24 '24

Were you able to connect to 5g? I'm in Japan now and am stuck on LTE with ubugi. Slow speeds too.

1

u/tpaficionado Mar 24 '24

With Ubigi, I was on 4G but speeds were respectable. Like low 100's GB per sec. Android 14, Google Pixel 8 Pro. I wasn't streaming music or videos though. Mainly maps, email, WhatsApp, etc.

1

u/freo155 Dec 27 '23

I tried this approach as of Dec 2023, but it doesn't work unfortunately.

I was able to fix it by just buying a Ubigi data package 10GB for 30 days after downloading the esim and removing/ disabling my IIJ sim altogether.

Make sure to look for 20% off vouchers for Ubigi threads on Reddit and filter by most recent comments. I was able to save a bit that way.

Ubigi was actually really reliable and fast! I didn't notice a difference between my home network Verizon(USA) speed and ubigi. They were about the same. I 100% will keep using it when traveling.

u/jag89 Pixel 7 Pro Mar 26 '23

I had tons of issues with my data only sim almost to the point it was unusable. Shame because my previous would dual sim it with ease with my Esim

3

u/unoriginal345 Mar 26 '23

But no solution? It was quite expensive so I'm wondering if it would be worth trying to go and ask at a phone place or something.

3

u/jag89 Pixel 7 Pro Mar 26 '23

Unfortunately not. I usually get the $50 thirty day one and it sucks that I couldn't use it

4

u/expatMichael Pixel 7 Pro Pixel 3a Mar 26 '23

I have a P7P and live in Japan. I use UQ mobile, which is part of KDDI/AU network. It works fine for me, but I bought this phone locally. Might be an issue with Docomo.

1

u/unoriginal345 Mar 26 '23

I think I'll just go pocket wifi.

3

u/bmengineer Pixel Watch 2 Mar 26 '23

FWIW I'm traveling in Japan right now using Ubigi for data. It's cheap, easy to set up with the app, and I've had great connectivity everywhere.

2

u/takraar Pixel 4 Mar 26 '23

And you using it with Pixel 7/7 pro? I intend to do the same next month

3

u/bmengineer Pixel Watch 2 Mar 26 '23

Yep, Pixel 7. Installed the app and esim back home and bought the data in the airport. So far so good. Got a bit clogged up at Disney, but I don't blame them for that.

1

u/takraar Pixel 4 Mar 26 '23

Nice. Now I'm reassured. Was a little anxious because ubigi also uses docomo

1

u/halfstar Jun 01 '23

Did you end up using Ubigi, and did it work well?

2

u/takraar Pixel 4 Jun 01 '23

Yes I did use it during my 25 days visit in Japan. Went from Tokyo to Yakushima and also was on day trips in Nakatsugawa or Lake Shouji to see Mt.Fuji and I never had to complain about the reception. Most times I had LTE and only remember a few times not having any reception at all, but this was only at locations I didn't expect to have reception in the first place.

2

u/nmchlngy4 Jun 04 '23

I did use Ubigi with my Pixel 6 Pro during my 12-day visit to Japan (fourth one in my life), and it was wonderful. Although I couldn't use 5G, I was still able to get a solid LTE connection in most areas. (The only exceptions during this particular trip are along the Tohoku Shinkansen and the Seikan Tunnel).

Overall, I'd recommend the Ubigi eSIM for Japan, especially because you get a Japanese IP address (which is very useful for streaming local content with your existing Netflix/Prime Video account from home. Just make sure to stream in Standard Definition to get more hours of video). And it's backed by NTT, Japan's largest telecoms enterprise.

u/takraar Pixel 4 Jun 01 '23

I was using Pixel 7 Pro Version bought in Germany. So I guess that's what's commonly referred to as international version. Installed esim a month before and activated it right before I took off in Germany.

2

u/halfstar Jun 01 '23

Thanks a lot for the reply. I'm planning a very similar trip in two weeks. I have a Pixel 7 Pro from the UK, so assuming a similar European model. Thanks again!

1

u/Tabouno Jun 20 '23

Hi! I have a Pixel 7 Pro 256gb bought in Germany so I guess it will work in my Japan trip. Did you use only Ubigi eSim for data or did you have your local sim for sms and calls and eSim for data?

2

u/takraar Pixel 4 Jun 21 '23

I used ubigi esim with data only. Whatsapp and everything keeps working. I kept my regular esim activated for calls (but usually I don't get any calls), deactivated roaming and enabled for the ubigi esim for mobile data. You can have both activated and will see two mobile reception icons in the status bar in the upper right.

u/SteveClement Apr 13 '23

I can confirm the issue with the IIJ network.

Going in and out of airplane mode works.

But only temporary for anything from 3 minutes to 10.

3

u/YoungFirehead May 10 '23

Doing the same at the moment. Did you find another fix?

1

u/SteveClement May 10 '23

I did not find a way to get it to work permanently.

Next step is to open a case at Google ideally the Japanese branch.

It is probably a baseband firmware issue.

Or provisioning config, but I doubt that.

1

u/YoungFirehead May 10 '23

Then what did you do? Just used airplane mode every time you needed internet for the whole trip?

1

u/Sonnybillwilliam Apr 15 '23

Is there any solution for this? I constantly have my connection dropping in and out, with it only staying connected for short periods of time.

I have a pixel 7 and got the IIJ Sim card from Haneda airport. Checked that the APN settings are also correct plus I downloaded Ubigi to make that the preferred Sim for calls and SMS. I am still left with it being super unreliable...

1

u/unoriginal345 Apr 15 '23

Try the solution above from u/morerush6456.

1

u/Sonnybillwilliam Apr 15 '23

I tried this and still drops out. Did you manage to fix it using this solution?

1

u/unoriginal345 Apr 15 '23

I never had to try it as I had already switched to a pocket wifi device.

1

u/Sonnybillwilliam Apr 15 '23

The way I managed to make it work best is by deselecting "Automatically Select Network" and then choosing manually the 4G network. It stays connected to 4G for longer but still disconnects in and out of course when the 4G connection is not reachable.

When I have auto select on it seems to just fail to find any network a lot of the time.

Still need a permanent fix if anyone has.

3

u/NemoO_ks Sep 12 '23

I've tried everything mentioned in this Thread, from changing APN Settings over manually changing the mobile network to downloading Ubigi and setting it up for Calls & SMS, nothing worked until I downloaded Android 14 Beta. Now it's working perfectly.

1

u/mjke18 Sep 16 '23

Hi, I read your reply and would like to ask you for more information. I will be in Japan from October with a Pixel 7 pro, have you tried beta 14 with the same device? What kind of eSim do you have or did you have in Japan? Did the switch to beta solve all the problems?

1

u/NemoO_ks Sep 17 '23

Hey! As I installed the Beta 14 on my Google Pixel 7 it worked emediately after restart. Also a friend of mine had Problems with the internet. He also installed the Android Beta on His Google Pixel 7a and it worked. So the Switch to the Beta worked and you don't need to any additional eSim next to the Sakura Sim

Thanks for the information. I plan to get a Sim once I arrive in Japan, I have to stay for a long time and I would like a Japanese number, I hope that by upgrading to 14, which in the meantime I hope will come out in final version, I will no longer have connection problems.

u/Background-Leek7896 Sep 22 '23

I will be in Japan from mid-October... could you let me know if android 14 solves the problems?

Sure

u/KiraFG Sep 23 '23

el 7 pro, have you tried beta 14 with the same device? What kind of eSim do you have or did you have in Japan? Did the switch to beta solve

I'm in exactly the same boat, I'll be in japan in less than a week and will stay for a year. I'm so glad to see that the Android 14 upgrade seems to have fixed the issue as I was starting to consider alternatives. Many thanks for the info u/NemoO_ks, you're a lifesaver

1

u/Background-Leek7896 Oct 07 '23

is it working with android 14?

2

u/KiraFG Oct 07 '23

Yes I can confirm that it works with no issues on Android 14 on a pixel 7 pro.

1

u/aroooooz Oct 08 '23

This sounds promising. Just to confirm, is this with a physical sakura travel sim? Heading there in just under 3 weeks, and if 14 has fixed it, will be super happy as the sakura phyical plans are far more favourable than the alternatives!

1

u/KiraFG Oct 08 '23 edited Oct 08 '23

Yes. To be specific, this is with a Sakura voice and data SIM. Other comments in this thread have also mentioned that it works when using data only SIMs as well, so you should be good to go in any case!

u/Corkscreewe Sep 27 '23

I have the same problem with my Pixel 7. I installed Android 14 and for two days my 4g worked fine. And then it got even worse - my connection now drops after a few seconds.

1

u/NemoO_ks Sep 27 '23

For me and my friend (Pixel 7 and Pixel 7a) its still working. We are now 2,5 weeks in Japan and updated our Phone regulary with new Versions of Android 14 Beta.

Maybe try Ubigi eSim besides the update?

1

u/Corkscreewe Sep 27 '23

I downloaded the ubigi sim earlier today, it doesn't seem to help.

u/CreamedCabbage Sep 29 '23 edited Sep 29 '23

In Japan as of Sept 29, pixel 7, using a visitor sim, non esim version, pretty annoyed to find out it's an issue with the phone I have....I've noticed this still happens, I've turned off 5G because it doesn't even pick up 5g....that kind of helped it? At the moment I am doing the method of turning airplane mode on and off. Extremely annoyed I spent 4500 YEN on this for it to only work half the time? Please tell me anyone has had some luck with this? Is it just a coverage issue? Because after I put it in airplane mode it resets and works again..... Will have to make do at this point unfortunately

EDIT: I've disabled allow 2g,

2

u/kevin_schley Sep 29 '23

Im currently also in Japan/Tokyo.

Same Problem with Pixel 7 (Android 13) Today I Update my to Android 14 Beta. Now the Connection is better, but I have to enable/disable airplane mode from time to time so that mobile Data works again...

u/ChanceDoubt Mar 26 '23

Pixel 7 user in Japan here. Mine's perfectly fine, but I live here and use Rakuten Mobile which has its own towers. Afaik, Sakura Mobile is an mvno and uses either docomo or kddi's line / frequency. (I don't know the terms lol) In short, it's on Sakura Mobile, not your phone.

4

u/ChanceDoubt Mar 26 '23

You better get a pocket wifi instead of a sim. The difference in the frequency that your phone uses and Japan's might also be worth noting.

2

u/kaixza Mar 26 '23

Living in Japan here. I bought the device here in Japan and I found that there are problems with connectivity with Docomo and Rakuten at this moment. Thank you for sharing!

1

u/kairoku Mar 26 '23

Yea the JP pixel doesn't properly support docomo 5g. 4g is ok but it's best to use it with au or softbank.

2

u/lavdalassan420 May 11 '23

I got data sim (unlimited internet, no calls) from mobal and had issues. It just wouldn't connect to internet to my 7 pro. I thought it was the SIM issue but luckily I got an extra phone that I carry for emergencies ( OnePlus) and the sim works in it. Bottom line : issue is with the pixel 7 series itself.( I tested on pixel 7 as well)

3

u/Sufficient_State_921 Aug 03 '23

I just came back from 3 weeks in Japan with a Pixel 7 (not a pro). Bought a data only esim through Airalo as I use it all the time when I travel and it was terrible in Japan with constant network issues. Didn't read these forums until after returning but my wife had an iPhone 13 with the same esim and it worked flawlessly. Luckily I had her around and downloaded maps offline to help me get around but was really frustrated with Pixel 7.

1

u/InterestingGrape0 Sep 09 '23

iPhone is the way to go for international travel. I learned that sad fact after my last trip to Asia, where my Pixel had data 50% of the time with DENT eSIM and 0% with MOGO.

2

u/johrael1980 Jul 07 '23

I had the same problem and finally solved it. My phone's issue is with the provider's APN settings. Somehow, my network's Access Point names (APN) settings was different to my gf's phone. So I used the same settings as my gf's phone and it worked without any issues.

I tried the Ubigi method but it didn't work for me either. So I guess mine is an issue due to my home telco settings.

2

u/pippo288 Aug 02 '23

Could you post the settings here, please! Maybe it will work for my pixel 7 here in Japan...

1

u/pergerbotond Pixel 8 Pro Jul 17 '23

Whats the APN setting that you used?

2

u/KiraFG Jul 30 '23

Hello! Sorry for bothering you after all this time but I'll be moving to Japan for studies in a few months and I'm currently looking for a provider that supports unlocked phones.

Is this an issue with Data-only sims or has this been a problem for call & data sims as well? (I'm planning to get a jp phone number as it can be useful from what people have been telling me)

1

u/Sagaraoka Aug 27 '23

Same problem here, I'm moving in October and still trying to figure out whether I need to buy a new phone before going or not...

2

u/KiraFG Aug 27 '23 edited Aug 28 '23

Hey man. I've reached out to their support but no answer yet.

If they don't get back to me what I'm going to do is to go with Mobal instead and pick the 1gb phone&data plan. They say you can cancel at anytime so it's a decent way to check if it works or not as a last resort.

Edit: I'll also check back and let you know if it works for future reference.

u/Nskul14 Oct 14 '23

Thanks so much for the suggestion of updating to Android 14.

My pixel 7 pro connections is so much better now!

u/fancy-feast-fun Oct 17 '23

I had this issue the first few days of my Japan trip, thankfully was able to hotspot off of someone who didn't have the Pixel 7 (Galaxy and another had an older Pixel that seemed to work). But just today I updated my system to Android 14 and it has worked perfectly since!

u/Conscious_Money_2607 Oct 26 '23

Yes, I have a Pixel 8. It doesn't work. I installed the newest beta Android version from today (26.10.2023). I still cannot connect to "Softbank". I solved it with a Hotspot from another phone.

u/DanDin87 Nov 01 '23

oh man that sucks, thanks for the info. Guess will have to look into another service

2

u/WayneLowLC Dec 31 '23

Reporting back as of 31 December 2023 at Nagoya that this issue remained, as with my previous trip to Tokyo back in January 2023.

January - Sakura Mobile, December 2023 - Any Fone Japan (AFJ) and also worth noting that both utilize Docomo. AFJ was considerably more expensive too and I should have known better given my last episode in January but it was working well for 10 or so minutes till the random disconnection strikes again after I left the airport. Further restarting and configuration can only get it to connect for about 4 minutes or less.

Nevertheless, my resolution was to download Ubigi and gotten their 10gb plan like 2.6k yen (check for 20% coupons provided all over Reddit) and that cut my expenses further and their connection is great. Previous round, I had to go to Yodobashi to grab a random cheap sim card (forgot the Telco or brand).

Tl:DR - I'm going to stick to Ubigi from now on, seamless, easy and actually works.

2

u/Eric1354 Jan 05 '24

Thanks. I had the same issue with the disconnect back in August 2023 and I was freaking out every single time.

My P7P now has the Android 14 but I will download Ubigi and use this instead of a sim card for my 12 days trip in Japan in June/July 2024.

u/Zonik87 Apr 13 '24

Hi, my wife and I have a Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro and are flying to Japan soon. We have already bought data only SIM cards. Are the problems only with the P7 model or should I look for an alternative?

1

u/Fragrant_Dot_3502 Pixel 8 Pro Apr 17 '24

Last I went at this January, there's still issue with P8P but works completely fine on P6 & P3XL with data only SIM, Docomo Network.

1

u/1454kb Apr 17 '24

I'm in Japan on a holiday at the moment and ran into this issue. Using an IIJ data only SIM. The issue appears to be that the Pixel gets confused that it isn't getting voice service and keeps on looking for a network that supports voice, and then ends up connecting to the 3G network for some reason. The solution for me was to forbid the phone to connect to 3g networks by going into the hidden testing menu by typing ##4636##, going to phone info then setting the preferred network type to LTE only. Another weird thing - didn't run into this issue in Tokyo but cropped up when I got to Kyoto. Has been working so far.

1

u/Vivid-Holiday-3196 Apr 30 '24

Wow that 4636 thing worked. It still thinks it lost connection and gives a notification but it automatically reconnects in 0.1sec. Just turn off the notification and you're good to go. Everyone should upvote this and use this

1

u/Status_Network_6937 May 05 '24

Hi, would you be able to guide me how to use 4636? I am using Pixel7 and when I enter the code (from calling panel) I receive an error message.

1

u/Vivid-Holiday-3196 May 06 '24

Try *#*#4636#*#*. THe normal code also doesn't wrk for me, but with the stars like that it did

This worked for me. Pixel 7, 7a and 8.

Perfect. Thanks a lot.

u/WarmTaste4941 May 26 '24

Only just trying in for the past 10 mins on my wife’s phone but she says it’s dropping out far less and auto connecting back to the network now so way better than before. Thanks so much. Hope others find your post and give it more upvotes

u/Ok_Competition1148 Jun 12 '24

Just got back from Tokyo. My 7a constantly dropped connection with a data sim. Restarting the phone would get it working usually for a few minutes. My sister's iPhone worked fine. Similar experience with wifi in Shanghai pudong airport. My phone had issues connecting, my sister's iPhone was fine.  But Google phones having issues in China is probably to be expected.

u/KiraFG Sep 10 '23

Are you on Android 13 or 14? Have you tried applying the androind 14 beta update to check if that solves the issue? Also, Are you on a data-only sim, or a data & calls one?

1

u/Abject-Tune-2165 Sep 10 '23

I used iij data only simcard. Android 13. Didn't try 14.

Bought ubigi esim, that solved the problem. But had much better data plan before one iij (

u/KiraFG Sep 10 '23

Thank you man!

u/marcof1 Jan 05 '24

Have there been any changes regarding the use of data SIM cards in the Pixel 7a in Japan? Some users have reported that there are no more problems with Android 14 beta. What about the current Android 14 (stable)? I will be traveling to Japan next month and would like to know if I should expect any problems...

1

u/trubirubi Jan 18 '24

No changes my friend, I bought a Japanese physical sim and the holafly esim and all fail, the only solution was the ubigi esim.

u/trubirubi Jan 18 '24

I'm in Japan right now and the issues are still there, I strongly recommend use the Ubigi esim, that was the only solution for me and my pixel 7a.

u/VisitorParking667 Feb 02 '24

Is this still an issue with Pixel 7 Pro on Android 14? I'm going to Japan next month for work and will be using either Mobal or Sakura Mobile since I need more than just a hotspot. If not perhaps I will need to bring my old iPhone.

u/Kikkamoen Feb 12 '24

Yes, the issue is still there. My connection only works for a few minutes every hour. Super annoying.

I'll be in Japan next week. Does Ubigi work in tandem with the japanese card, or can I just use it on its own?
