Hello everyone. im really frustrated with Xperia SP wifi. anyone have any working wifi solution which really works ? Don't why SP's wifi is so horrible even my N900 is much better than it.
edit: My phone's wifi is working now as usual. Previously it was not receiving any data nor sending until i gave my router a reboot. but other devices connected to same router were working fine. don't know what was the cause of it. but wifi single issue is still bugging me.

tried it already but it didn't worked. any more solutions ? thanks for the reply.
edit: will give a look to other last 2 solutions.
Is your phone rooted? for the first link version this is required. Don't know what about with the others.
i also had this probs.. but the good things is it only software related not hardware... (trust me on this)
i found out those dbm connectivity hack (change it from -87 to -100) work well but its not good enough
the only permanent solution is to flash to custom ROM (maybe sony have wifi kernel prob)
now using dirty unicorn.. i have more range (+1 more bar) and lesser connection loss

i also noticed the same thing. Roms based on CM doesnt have this problem. May be Sony fix this issue in 4.3.

Even i Am tempted to flash custom roms But the touch response in all of them is quite bad when compared to stock.Swapping those values makes wifi better for me
( not as good as cm but still manageable)

workaround prob cn be solve by system/usr/idc/ open clearpad.idc
change this value
touch screen scale 1.0 [instead of 0.0074]
touch.size.scale= 20.00 [ instead of 16.91]
touch.size.bias= 70.00 [instead of 67.65]
applied to both cm or stock... no more touch probs but while charging, touch respond had this prob

I've had that with all the Deep Shining ROM's. Suggest you try some others.
could be the rom
Deepshining has battery saver enabled constantly. Turn off under settings also It is located in settings the extras you choose turn off in there otherwise it will keep turning back on. Reboot and try. If not asnsar has an excellent 7.8 rom I recommend I just installed

I find it has better battery life more stable faster, more stripped down to basics, with the look and feel of stock rom it has heaaring aids option in settings.
But must say it lacks usb video out custom lock screens and tones. But it is more stable.

I am glad I read this post. Now I know how you accidently erased your Deepshining ringtones. I was about to share it but you could at least be a little bit more honest.
BTW, light sensors are working fine in deepshining roms. All my beta testers have confirmed that.

I did commend you on your rom and your rom does have the extras under the settings. All this I stated in your rom thread. I also know you saidyou would resolve battery issues for your next release. Yours was the first 7.8 rom out ther and lots of people including myself thank you for that. Yes I lost through flashing to ansar rom. But still doubtful anyone would share for that reason.

There must be an unaccounted variable dot. When I pull the phone (HD7) away to hang up the the call screen doesn't appear to allow me to end calls. I have to click the power button to be able to get the end call screen. I don't have this problem other ROMs.
Hello!
Do you have problems during streaming Youtube videos?
Do you notice a very slow connection with your Nexus 4?
Do you notice that your other clients (like notebook, other smarthones, pc, etc etc) are connecting very well with the same router's settings?
Good, the problems are not inside the router's settings. The real issue is neither into the Nexus 4's Qualcomm WiFi adapter.
The issue is only in a configuration file named WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini.
You have only to flash the zip file through recovery.
If you don't notice the difference, if this zip file is not helping you, please write here and you can always flash the stock/default settings.
Let me know the result! With my settings I solved my issues!

Yea, changes you made would be nice.
Does this also (finally) fix the inglorious "no Push Notification while screen is off"-Bug?
People I made a simple thing: I extracted the WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini from an official LG Optimus G Rom (a device which shares the same hardware of our Nexus 4) and this file seems to work fine.
I did not test if this workaround fixes the missing notifications bug when the screen is off.
Battery life will drop like a rock with this. It won't let your phone sleep while you're on WiFi. Actually knew of this before but the battery life... Stopped using this when Prima Drivers were released but this is a GREAT workaround if you don't want the ARP issues caused by Prima Drivers. Another option is to set your router's beacon scanning to 10ms or less

Maybe I was not so clear.
I did NOT edited
from "gEnableBmps=1"
to "gEnableBmps=0"
but I simply adopted another ini file which is going very good and the battery life is the same like the stock ini file.

Anyway I am getting the same performance of my notebook connected at the same wifi network.
Now I can watch videos without problems
This actually improved my wifi. Thanks!
Sadly,fell into a bootloop spiral after flashing this..
I hope it's my fault ( my phone's configuration fault)
Can someone else give feedback?
Thanks anyway!!
EDIT: Tried this a second time and all went well.
I'll send feedback later on.
Thank you!
Flashed fine here. Will update with battery life and Wi-Fi performance.

Will test this against the Prima Drivers. Comparing stock settings and this, I see that the code should theoretically work well
With one user going into a bootloop may I suggest that you post the rom you are on as well. This will also help narrow down any issues. Now for the guy who had an issue were you on a cm based rom or aosp?

My normal was always slower than on my laptop. I was getting 8-9 mb/sec and now I get 11-12. We'll see if battery life stays relatively the same.

You know, when I was reading original post, I felt like its sort of the advertisements that come on TV ( like are you fat? do you want to decrease your fat? are you facing hairfall problem?) Dont take it seriously! Just told what I got in mind :laugh:
BTW I flashed this, and no bootloops for me atleast, I am running PA latest alpha with Franco R143 :highfive:
Ill post the results after testing for some hours!
Thanks for this!
Hi guys,
Maybe I have to explain better why I advice to flash the zip file.
In my house I have a DSL line @ 10Mbit/s but I cannot reach 4Mbit/s with my Nexus 4.
In the contrary my Galaxy Nexus and other 3 laptops reach the limit of my DSL wifi network.
I was getting very bad when I wanted to watch a video from Youtube with my Nexus and I only see a waiting/loading animation... This is bad.
For this reason I noticed that editing the config file something changed and so I adopted the LG Optimus G ini file, a smartphone which shares the same hardware of the Google Nexus 4.
I am using an AOSP based ROM (compiled from a pure source code by me) and with the stock kernel.
Wifi appears to be fixed and finally the wifi speed reach the DSL band limit.
This workaround solved my problem with my DSL router but it is not a rule that my fix will solve the world.
Battery life is really great, over 4h 30min screen and surfing on internet with wifi radio on for about 2 hours.
Again: my problem seems to be fixed.

I'm coming from Arc S too, and while I never had such a big issues with Arc S Wi-Fi (on stock GingerBread), I can say that Wi-Fi reception on T is both, more stable, and with stronger signal.
Xperia Arc/S problems with signal are mostly related to bad ICS update, because on GB it was much better.
Regarding Google search, you know, nowadays people are searching for all kind of things, for reason and for no reason, and Google is remembering all that.
So basically, whatever nonesense you enter into Google search, you will most likely get some results, less or more relevant.

Xperia T could have much better wifi reception if Sony want...HW is ok but SW is killing its potencial
I have problems since I bought it,keep dropping connection(every 2 minutes reconnect )
ON Cyanogenmod theres no such issues,on TX firmware no problem too + wifi range 2x better than with stock T Firmware
Check this,its definetly not HW problem..

That is it. And this is why Google search will become irrelevant, sooner than we might believe.
From "XYZ has the best Wifi ever" to "XYZ's wifi reception is worst" ........ I assume that everything is all right.
Wifi reception in Singapore is sometimes difficult, bcs of the tight space, 20 or more Wifi transmitters locally, and so on. Also I believe in some cases there is a certain intention, since people shall be more encouraged using (pay) data connections.
I have same issue. Wifi signal is very poor in my Xperia T and it loses the connection all the time. I compared the Wifi reception with an Alcatel One Touch Idol and it was 2xbetter in same point. I think it has to be a SW problem, as the HW is the same than other devices and it works fine.
Hello,
I hope someone can help.
I got a Z1, with slow WiFi, but wait! It is not that simple! Everytime I change something in WiFi settings in my Frit.Box, I get one day full speed. Than after everything rebooted. It slows down to around 20Kbs up to 2Mb.
I first thought it is my crappy Fritz Box. So I tried out the Dlink DIR-600. Which, oh wonder, does the same. So root cause: It is the Z1.
After a day off, my WiFi is like in the dark age.
AND NO: Only two or three other Networks
And no: No wall, i can stand 1m behind the box.
Anyone got any tips or know why this might happen?
Edit: I´m thinking to give CM a try if it might fix the WiFi issue?
Well, i have a similar problem like yours. Z1 drops from my router all the time and the connectivity sucks!
Maybe we should use ROMs to fix it

Hello.
In the very beginning of using my mtcb device, there was an option in the settings with auto brightness. It worked with the illumination wire.
I don't know really, what I changes, but it isn't working anymore or let's say, the option isn't there anymore.
What I have done is switching between different Roms and changed a few things in factory settings. Can there be the problem?
The second one: anybody here using a 4g stick? Is it possible? Which model are you using?
I am really unhappy my 3g stick, working with my old parrot Android device, is not working on this one. Which ones are you using?
Thanks for the help

I just ordered a Huawei wingle.
It's an USB-powered Wifi-stick.
It turns on by it self when it get's power, and then it makes a wifi-hotspot, that the radio connects to automaticly.
(I haven't recived it yet, but i hope that it works excatly as i described).
wifi isn't a problem, it's build in. i really just interested in 3g or better 4g

I'm sure it has to do with which kernel modules were compiled in. And as far as I know, we don't have any true original android ROMs for our units, so that's not likely to change soon.
