[Q] Xperia SP Tethering Problem... - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys anyone tried Tethering on this device? Mine is not working, when I activate it, an error comes and does not activate... It seems like a rom problem, my friends xperia Z doing the same thing... Does anyone know how to fix it? It is all original rom untouched... I sent it to repair but came back as it is like before... No luck...

USB or wifi nothing matters, It just doesn't share the internet... Maybe a firmware problem but Sony is still sleeping...No update or anything to make it work...

Working Fine
i have tried both WIFI and Bluetooth tether and both is working fine without any issue

wifi doesn't work with smartwatch 2

Anyone know a way to keep the smartwatch 2 from messing up wifi? I'm on 4.3 6606
When I y to use wifi with the watch connected I get no data till I turn the watch off.
I have the same problem after the last update 4.3 version 10.4.B.0.569. Smartwatch app v 1.3.19 . I tried two different regions but still the same.
There are many other users with same problem here:
http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Software-Updates/wifi-problem-after-4-3-update-on-xperia-z/td-p/490591
Please modify the title of the discussion because it's hard to understand from results! I was opening a new one!
Put "problems" or "disconnection" please
Yep, I have exactly the same problem with WiFi when using my smartwatch 2 whilst on 4.3.
I tried 2 different ROMs from 4.3 with a wipe before flashing. Both had the same problem, so ended going back to 4.2.2 until someone can find a fix.
Other users with this problem in "4.3 bugs" discussion in general forum.
Same problem here! Still no news from sony though. Now i wish i hadnt updated to 4.3 at all !!! @@@

So i've done my own testing with this, and I think it has something to do with the 2.4ghz wifi radio. If the wifi is on 5ghz, i can connect no issue with the SW2 enabled, but if the wifi is 2.4ghz (or hotspot) it goes.. no
So yeah, until sony has a fix, it's either 5ghz or 4.2.2
do not know.....
I have this problem too
Anyone knows ig this affect other smart watches like Pebble or even bluetooth headphones/speakers?
The Asus tf prime had horrible bt problems with wifi enabled, could be similar?

Sorry, but it only worked for a few hours.
I found it.
What I did was, I took the wpa_supplicant.conf from fw 4.2.2 and replace the one in fw 4.3 and now I can use my SW2 without losing my wifi connection.
Your device has to be rooted.
Use explorer with root excess.
It can be found in here on your device: /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
Don't forget to reboot your phone.
Enjoy your SW2 on fw 4.3
Cheers
Tnx for the info heyfawakka.
The thing is i am EXPECTING a solution from sony. Why should i have to find a fix for a bug ?

heyfawakka updated his post and he said it only worked for a few hours. You can root your phone and return to 4.2 or you can hope that sony releases a fix for this (i doubt it will be anytime soon )

You can try by changing region Code.

yes maybe the problem is in the region code...in some roms you have this issue
WiFix Manager will solve your problem, just tic emulate on every boot option if i still remember to solve your reboot problem, and change your region code to scan for new network.

[Q] issues with sensors

I am on stock .157 not rooted. have no issues on the phone, but after maybe 2-3 days of usage, sensors wouldn't work (accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity). the screen wont turn off during calls , auto rotation wont work. Also in service tests, (*#*#service#*#*) all the values would be blank.
A restart will always fix these but I am still worried if this is a software issue. Any one else facing this issue ?

Try reflashing your FTF and see if it gets fixed. But before doing this, take it to Sony before more disappointment if its under warranty.

@ sruba209
Tried doing that, but it gets solved temporary. The sensors don't show after some time.
I have this exact problem not sure which ftf would be my original bought from carphone warehouse
Did you solve this issue???
Did Any one found the solution for the problem yet??
I think I found a solution ... @ebro52
This problem only occurs when I leave the auto rotate off.
For the past few days I have kept the auto rotate on and didn't encounter any issue. After I disabled auto rotate, about 6 hrs later , all sensors stopped working.....
Still the issue is not solved??
I still have the problem. Tried keeping auto rotate on as well. So now moving to a custom rom mostly cm12 or based on it. Wil let you'll know if problem persist.
Ive had the problem on all roms have to reboot to get them working again and all sensors stop at the same time
Is there anyway to get a log and see what stops working and when?
My sensors do not work on reboot as well. They stop and start on there on. I am using sony stock right now. I will root the phone and see if I can have a log. Mean while has any one found a issue Please post.

Slimkat didn't fix my problem at all. Seems the reason of the problem is different for us. Btw is there any app that can reset or recalibrate the sensors?! Is this theory right that the lcd I replaced is none original and caused this problem and replacing an original one will solve the problem?!
Does anyone know where the sensor's are located the only one I've found is on headphone jack

No WiFi Networks listed

My P8 Lite doesn't show any WiFi Networks anymore and also Bluetooth can't find anything.
I tried nearly every WiFi Fixer app from the google play store and also every available firmware.
Any Ideas?
I have the same problem, I'll add that factory reset didnt solve anything. The whole thing started abiut a month after purchase
Ok. So I'm not the only one.
Have you found a solution for that?

Nope, I think of sending it to warranty after xmas. Looks like a hardware problem
Any updates on the issue? My phone suddenly can't find wi-fi networks either.
I have the same problem like you and I'll send phone to warranty. They've send me new one. Sorry for my bad English

Try flashing other firmware... Maybe it will be solved

Flaahing any (including stock) firmware should fix it. I had the same issue with my Samsung tablet when after installing stock firmware. TWRP restore fixed it

For me that's don't work, I'll try new software and factory reset with no results only warranty sent helps [emoji12].

Your WiFi antenna is broken. Either get a new one, or get a new phone. No WiFi for you anymore.

Stuck in Headphone mode after updating to 4.4.4

Hey,
so I got my new Xperia Z today
It arrived on 4.3 but I decided to flash a 4.4.4 FTF file. Everything worked fine but now the audio only comes through the headphone port.
I tried cleaning it and everything but nothing worked so far...
Hope someone can help me out
Edit: It works normally on firmware 10.4.B.0.569, but everything above that doesnt work
Help would be highly appreciated since I just got this phone
