Almost forgot I'm using the Motorola droid Razor Maxx I have tried restarting the phone. This model has a sim card so *228 dose not do anything for updating towers.

I lost it too in Cedar Rapids, IA.  Looks like, from reading other posts, that this is more wide spread than just our area.  Data, and some voice service, appears to be out over most of the country.

From my understanding a fiber optics line was cut and they are working to fix it. I am in Des Moines

Must be a heck of a cut. I've had 1 bar for over an hour and phone only sets at 1x. Thanks for posting though, I thought it was just my phone but I feel better knowing it's an actual outage.

Also, my phone seems to be using up more of the battery. Maybe it keeps trying to get a Data Connection so going in and turning that off for now.

I have a feeling once its fixed they are going to act as if nothing happened like they did in 2011. Most likely no apology or partial credit towards your account for the inconvenience. What a wonderful company we are stuck with. (Plus you have to love the new forced combined data plans & soon to be no longer unlimited data for those grandfathered in)

I got my email ability back but still don't have much for internet access.  I guess we can't ask for everything at once.
