Server Lag - Day to day

I always used to drive around, stuff gyms, or stop whenever I saw a worthy challenge. (My rule of thumb was of there was a 3000+ Blissey in the gym I'd take it down, weird huh) The server was always great, and I could often shave out mon before anyone even knew it. But in the last few weeks, the servers have been a shitshow. Gyms don't appear until well after you pass them, error 29 pops up more than ever, and the lag before a battle is unreal. (10-15 seconds)

And whenever I reload, it's a white screen for 10 seconds, and I don't want to tap on the screen to reboot it anyway. (Im in traffic) and I'm pretty sure the police wouldn't like it either. Raids are even worse. I let my buddy down because the boss didn't appear for 10 seconds, and flubbed several solo attempts on a Gengar. It's really discouraging, and I'm not sure how much more I can take before I stop until the next CD. (If it's an okay mon) Is anyone else experiencing this, and will this ever be fixed?

Are you positive it's server lag and not phone network issues? I bought a dual sim phone and found switching networks often resolves what I'd previously assumed were server issues.

I have same issue as OP and can confirm that it's network based, not server side. Turning mobile data on and off forces the phone to resync and it works great. (Now if only my GPS would stay on properly.)
