Issues with Apps when not using Wi-Fi

I just recently got the Droid RAZR and I've been having trouble using some of the apps (GPS Navigation, Pandora, Play Store, Browser, etc.) when I am not using Wi-Fi. Yesterday I tried to go for a run in while the phone stated I had a full 5 bars of 4G service, my connection to the server continued to timeout. This re-occurred when I tried to search for directions to an address. I have verified that GPS is enabled... I was easily able to do run these apps without Wi-Fi on my old Droid 1...

Does anyone have any ideas why this may be happening?

Try rebooting the device or cycling the Airplane mode to see if this helps because sometimes the network connection goes dormant and this resolves the issue usually.

No luck on that... tried rebooting and cycling Airplane mode and I'm still timing out on everything...

Thanks for your contribution, Wildman.

Hello Snunners,

I know how frustrating it is experiencing difficulties with applications you use on a daily basis. I ask that you clear the cache on these applications by going to Settings> Applications> Manage Applications> All> Select the application and Clear Cache. Please make sure you have the latest software update installed on your device. Let us know if you continue to experience difficulties.

Another thing you may check the Settings / Wireless and Network / Check Mobile Network if not checked...
