I relised that xperia v wifi range is very short.
I have compered lg prada and xperia,lg can find poor signal and connect,xperia cant find it.
Any way to increase wifi range?

Re: Wifi short range
Its the same for the Xperia T (maybe a lot of Sony devices)
And for me, there is no way to increase it with some apps or anything else.
you just have to get closer... Sony is not cool on this point.
Alternatively, you can search on Google how to reduce interference with a wi-fi signal from the router, or something like that.

you just replace wifi libs by libs from Xperia TX which has far better wifi reception
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335379
altrough its not as good as Xperia TX firmware its for sure better than stock T/V wifi reception

I've loaded it, too. The only change I thought it brought is that now it takes 2 or 3 seconds longer for connecting to networks with good or average power. It might be holding longer to the weaker ones, could it be? But that difference is marginal.

I pushed the original files back. My conclusion is: the difference is marginal to non-existent.
My wives phone (xperia T) also has poor wifi signal, while my HTC one x+ works ok at identical locations.
Would changing the official rom to a custom rom, have a positive influence on the wifi signal reception, or is this not possible due to the limitations of the hardware of this Sony phone?
Thanks Mark

Hi everyone
I recently purchased an Xperia T unlocked and while looking in the build.prop I noticed something weird, the proc showed up as MSM8960! As I was unsure because I had already messed around with my phone, I decided to do a system repair through pc companion to set my phone back to base. I then used android system info to recheck and sure enough, the proc still shows MSM8960. Am I dreaming or isn't the processor supposed to be a MSM8260-A.
Please enlighten me, have Sony updated things on later Xperia T's or is it just wishful thinking on my behalf.
Mine says the same, I don't know if it's supposed to be like this, it probably just doesn't specify this exactly for some reason.

http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/461839#461839
Perhaps a software problem but if not it would be weird!!
Well, at least I'm not the only one. If someone who owns the T since October did the same tests we'd be basically fixed...
I own my xt since November and it say's the same...
Gesendet von meinem LT30p mit Tapatalk 2
Ok thanks for the feedback. It's still a bit strange. I wonder what Sony will say, if anything, in the thread that was opened on their site.
Mine is manufactured in early March 2013 and it also says MSM8960.
Same on mine. But it's the same right? Only LTE is the difference.

Yep, it is technically
Right to clarify this:
The chip set in the T is the 8260A. However for software purposes it is so similar to the 8960 that it may as well have been named that. Every reference you will find will be to 8960 - technically in CAF 8260A doesn't even exist. This is why you find the baseband saying 8960.
Sony's answer:
Correct chip set is MSM8960.
The white paper is going to be corrected accordingly.

Is the option for location based wifi(Ortsbezogenes Wifi in germany) activated? If yes, Try disabling it.
Else you could Try flashing new Fw with FT
Sent from my Dualbooted XZ
Sometimes have problems with wifi too. Disconnects and after a few seconds it reconnects. I also have to disable and enable wifi sometimes because I haven't got any connection to the Internet anymore.
I flashed stock Rom one month ago with wiping data but nothing changed.

Yeah it is pretty poor on the Z. I will wait on reviews before I buy another Sony phone. I like there phones a lot, but the wifi quality is just ridiculous. I replaced my router at home so I could access it in the normal spots at home my old iphone 3gs worked fine. I'm not looking at upgrading for another year, but when I do, I'm going to wait, look here, see what people say. Unfortunately with the Z, no-one really mentioned it being bad prior to me buying it...
It is better with some devices than others. We got these expensive cisco units at work, and my wifi at work is crap now. The old airport was fine...
what do you think about that?

Looks like it is made by a 5 year old and Xperia T is twice in the image, 1 with YES and 1 with NO.
Looks fake to me.

Different strokes... Wait until you take a picture on the Nexus 4 (or from what the specs say the 5). Unlike the Sony, it is truly horrible camera.
The trick is never buy a subsidized phone, then it won't be simlocked or bootloader locked. That was an option with the Xperia T. I picked up mine for $279 at newegg.
The camera on my t is rubbish. When you take a video all you can here is a clicking noise from the camera

just to make sure what u talking about...you mean a noisy autofocus rattle sound, in videos?
if thats what you mean, i had that too with some Roms, but with omniRom its gone for me. dont know why. guess its a problem with some mic or whatever. happen for me just with some roms, not with all...crazy huh
thats your problem?
Maybe the Xperia T LTE is the one getting 4.3 update. I think the 3G one will not get the update. Maybe i'm wrong.
Neither are just like what happened to my play. A phone with specs good enough but not given the updates on purpose. If sony want to gain the market they need to release 1 flagship a year and support their previous flagships for longer than 5 months. The galaxy s3 is older and is getting android 4.3 and why aren't we?

I also will no longer support Sony's devices after this, kind of a slap in the face. They can take their T and stick it

Because no update to new version and sony bad, nexus cool because google. New version is good, because it keeps on battery half hour longer/lasts shorter but better. And profiles/new function in camera which i will use two times in my life/better integration with google plus omg! And no new version means that flagship abandoned. I am betrayed. sony bad.
To be honest i don't understand it too. When it comes - it comes. If not - who cares. Update from 2.3 to 4.0 was a big deal, because everything changed. API, nature of Android etc. GB slowly died and became incompatible with many interesting apps.
But update from one jelly bean to another? Dudes... It's only features!
Please just be happy that Sony released quite recent well written Android version. It's highly optimized and allows to do almost everything that is available to 4.2 and 4.3 devices..
