i had the same problem with sony xperia zr, and some other guys had it too, there is something seriously messed up with sony wifi drivers...
good part is it apears to be a software issue and can be fixed if sony whould give a damn...
http://android.kul.is/2013/09/sony-xperia-zr-wifi-problem.html
here is a detailed post about it, although sony told this guy eventually it was a hardware problem i'm pretty sure it's not, had the same issue on my zr, flashing a new firmware usually fixed it for 3-4 days untill it began again.
i suspected it was some app that i installed that messed up the wifi, anyway i got a new xperia z1 and my zr went to my sister, after a factory reset wifi works fine for her now...... so no idea actually...

My problem was most likely HW, because flashing new firmware including the one in the service centre did not work. But it looks like Sony has a lot of problems with the Wi-Fi chips in general - so the range of possible errors is quite broad. If it was a software problem, hopefully new update fixes it.
EDIT: The Xperia article is the most popular article by far on my website - which is sad.
it only happens to me once. the problem was solve once i off the wifi n on it.

Same here. I went into my router config and enable the Packet Flow Accelerator. No issues after that. Seems like Sony wifi chip eats a lot of packet data.

Made a factory reset and it's still happening at home and in the office, so it must be the Xperia Z Ultra as other devices work fine in both locations.
How to fix that???
Happen With Me Too
1.136 Indian Branded FTF
To Solve This I Have to Switch Of WiFi and again on it
me using connectify latest version
and when i tried to connect with my bro's lumia connection stays stable
sad sony
I had the same issue and the wi-fi worked again after I turned on the "Auto IP Support" option in the Wi-Fi advanced menu. Hope this helps.
Might work for other Z series...especially after Custom ROm or updated to 4.3
Hi all just wanna share with you all to all the Xperia ZR users who are facing problem to connect to any 2.4GHz networks. This is an official solution I found after weeks of testing and research. In the end, the driver is not loaded properly or by default, custom ROM created the havoc. So this is a solution finally will end all the Xperia ZR owners WiFi woes:
I noticed that when running ADB GUI, there is this file missing from /System/Data/Misc/WiFi called "WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini" .
I'm using ADB Helper Version 4.2.0.0, under BUILD.Prop Viewer tab, choose wlan.driver.config it points to that location. I downloaded somewhere from Xperia developer forum website. Then i modified and modified until i found the solution.
in this file modified the line gDotMode=3 (which is running in N mode only) to either 1 or 2 which s "a" or "b" mode.
I reboted the device and the wifi works and N mode is disabled meaning you wont be able to connect in 5GHz mode anymore. But you will be able to connect to all the CURRENT 2.4GHz AP ...yayyy!!! I read somewhere where ICS android allows you to Enable or Disable 5GHz scanning of AP. But later were removed. 4.3 updates sometimes also i found out will WIP this configuration or maybe Developer forgotten to include this as well. I hope Sony Xperia developers will look into this.
Now, my phone can connect to any 2.4GHz WiFi.. I would be willing to help just drop me an email at [email protected].

same problem in sp i tried to do what u said but wcnss diferent here could tell me how to do that in sp
Re: Somehow it worked for me...
I faced the same Bluetooth & Wi-Fi problem...
For Bluetooth I have got the replacement..
For wi-fi.. I did the tethering..
I created the Hot Spot in another phone and then access that hot-spot from my Xperia ZR..
Luckily it obtained the IP address of Hot-spot and started working
Then without switching off the wi-fi of my phone, I deleted the Hot-Spot connection and tried to access my already created wi-fi router setup fom ZR...
It clicked and started obtaining the IP address of my router..and its working fine from that day...

try to reflash firmware using flashtool without clearing data
Hi Friends,
I recently updated my Xperia ZR to 4.4.2 (230 build) and Mic works intermittently. Have tried safe mode, factory reset and PC companion repair. Diagnostic test also fails to detect mic. It works some times and doesnot work sometimes. Any suggestions?
I have the exact same problem although it exists since 4.2 for me.
Every time I update the phone to a newer version it works again or a month or so and then goes back to rarely working.
Its obviously not hardware problem as software solves it or cause this...
The weird thing is that I tried CM 11 and it happens there also...
Idk what to say... I searched the web and got notbing . many xperia owners had a similar problem but solved it in ways that didn't help me...
Quite anoying. I have no warranty so can't send it to sony. I just carry headphones in case someone calls and it doesn't work.

send it to Sony if in warranty. may b hardware issue.
Hi,
I have Xperia ZR C5503 phone about a year. Until 2 months ago I was using Android 4.3. When Lollipop update distributed I upgraded it to 5.0.2.(official)
But sometime after the upgrade my phone started not connecting wifi. It sees the available networks but not connecting them. The signal drops to lowest level about a second while trying to connect and it fails. Also I was using my phone's wifi tethering feature to share my internet to my pc. However wifi tethering is also not working. I enable it but I think it can't work as router. And lastly, I tried to send a file to my phone via bluetooth and it also enables but no other device sees it. I also have low sound on the phone and I can't hear people I am talking to.
So I got frustrated this saturday and downgraded to official 4.4.4. But it was same. Later I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my phone, installed recovery software. With that recovery mode I cleared all caches but the problem still countinued. Lastly I installed an unofficial modified kitkat to my phone but those problems still appears. I don't know why this phone is so problematic for me. I don't know if it is software related or hardware related. Now that my warranty is no longer valid.
Could you give me some ideas to attempt to solve these issues?

Hi,
I had dropped my phone maybe 1 or 2 times but not from high heights.(~ a meter) But that was more than 5 months ago. I am having this issue since last 2 months and I am sure that I didn't drop or harm my phone in any way. However I wash my phone, do you think that could cause that? Just effecting wifi and bluetooth components?
It's not true about dropping the phone make that errors appear, there are many people with same issues, this phone have manufacturing problems, it's not software
My brother have same problem and he never dropped the phone. Just take a look in Sony forums.
Btw, my brother's phone lost Bluetooth connection, NFC, WiFi, Sometimes WiFi works making some pressing in the NFC spot some seconds, but sucks anyway :/

How can i make the wifi stable? it drops in and out sometimes.
Wifi problem
my sony xperia zr has the same wifi problem it says scanning trys to connect the signal drops and again starts scanning..
I stopped the wifi service and restarted my phone and the wifi worked for a day and again the same proble.
Do anyone has a solution for this??
I have been facing the issue of wifi not connecting, since my upgrade to 5.1.1.
My research has led me to believe that the issue may be software based. However I'm not an expert in the field. And i was thinking of downgrading back to an older version of lollipop when the wifi was not dropping.
Can anyone advise on whether this may be a smart move, or a completely useless one?
Also is there a diagnostic protocol I can go through that could help me figure out for sure whether my wifi is busted physically, as some of you suggest here.
Thanks
Josette
I've tried the method "settings global put tether_dun_required 0" but when i reboot my Z5, the value comes back to 1 ... (and of course wifi tethering is not working, going thru USB is ok)
I'm discussing various points here. Check out everyone of this point and get a fair idea from where problem is originating.
1) Go to WiFi Settings > Keep wifi awake during sleep. Here the string value should be "Always"
2) Under stock firmware there are numerous battery optimisation. Some of them kill WiFi so battery can saved. Now disable this features if you want no drops in WiFi.
3) If both of don't work, head over to Xperia ZR General > Search for your specific device FTF. Flash it via flash tool. This should reset all wifi drivers. Don't opt or apply any battery features and use WiFi. If still issue exits then you're in bad luck.
4) Check for other WiFi access points. Check your own router's webpanel and see somewhere broadcasting and multicast signals are ticked. Also check your WiFi is at 100% of it's performance ( 100% transmit power)
5) Hardware issue. Most of the software part is not causing issues so it's safe to say a hardware issue is causing this. Now, long time ago when 5.0 was released for our device I read article regarding ZR. The user had constant WiFi drops. His issue was that his WiFi soldering was poor inside hardware. He soldered it again and his wifi drops were no longer a problem.
People also experience various bluetooth/tethering issue. It's important that people should gain knowledge about firmware flashing techniques so that device would get reset and you yourself could diagnose the problem. 1 in 0.7k unit has software/hardware issue in manufacturing. Sony provides diagnostic app, search in play store ( I'm not sure about this). Hope this answer helps many.
hii.. so did u get any solution for the problem ?
i am facing this problem since one month. i tried rebooting my phone many times. i even tried factory reset. but nothing has worked till know.
if u have any solution please inform me.thanku
Wifi Issue.
Hello Guys,
I have same issue in wifi after 1.5 Year of phone. Can you please help me on that. Does any one knows any other technician are repairing this phone? as SONY says they are not able to repair phone which even they developed. I do n't why such phones developed.
1. I have repaired phone using PCC.
2. tried reset
3. tried without stamina mode
4. tried with wifimanager app
but nothing works....
If you guys any suggestion any hope please let me know.
Thanks.
I just bought a second-hand Xperia 1 ii XQ-AT51 and didn't noticed then that Wi-fi and Bluetooth are not working.
And also that the bootloader is unlocked.
Besides from those issue and that the charging seems to be regular charging, not fast, everything works fine (NFC, Mobile Data, camera, features).
I don't know what the previous owner did, he clearly did something because the bootloader was unlocked; and asking and reading from other post, seems that nobody had these issues when unlocking the bootloader or rooting this model.
I locked the bootloader and tried repairing the software with Xperia Companion. Same software 58.1.A.5.507 (as I see the latest) before and after repair
Guess what: nothing different, although repairing was successful.
Then I unlocked the bootloader, flashed twrp as recovery (probably not necessary in my case) and flashed the stock software with Flashtool, latest from xperifirm (the same version I had before).
But I got some messages that some 3 things didn't flashed (not saved them).
Still the same.
Under Settings -> About it says Unavailable at Wi-fi MAC address and Bluetooth address.
With code *#*#4636#*#* I can see that the Wi-fi MAC address is 02:00:00..... (see attached image).
With code *#*#7378423#*#* at Bluetooth says Enable Bluetooth, at WLAN says enable WLAN, but on another Xperia I can see that it says OK for Enable an then Searching (see attached image).
Do you guys have any idea what to try to solve this issue or what to test in order to find the cause?
Thanks!
hi man ,i have same this issue with my mark II (XQ-AT52) , do you find out the way to turn on wifi and BT ?
Unfortunately no. After an Android/Security update the phone started to restart in about 2 minutes at max. So after 10 seconds or 1 minute it restarted, but not suddenly (like if you disconnect the battery), it was restarting normally. Then I tried software repair, but the phone would be stuck or get out of the flashmode. Enters fastboot but it wasn't seen by PC with adb devices command.
So now I have another issue that most probably will leave my Xperia as a brick. Sadly, because I really liked it.
I have now a SH Galaxy Note 10, but I'm planning to buy another Xperia when this brokes.
I also had the exact same problem as you, so I gave up later, when Android 12 push out and i upgrade but didn't solve problem, so I was wondering whether to continue using it without wifi and bluetooth or send it to Sony for repair.

On mine I also noticed after I bought it that it was opened, so I didn't found if it was hw or sw related, but since you also had this problem probably it is a software issue, or at least not a hardware issue because someone opened it.
Especially if yours is in warranty, I think you should send it to Sony.
If i use a third-party rom like miui , WIFI and BT sometimes can be opened and used, but it will cause the system to crash, so I also think it is a software problem ，maybe related to the persist partition 。
hi guy，I sent my mobile phone to Sony for maintenance. After they tried to update the system again, they told me that I needed to replace the motherboard, which cost $400 , so I gave up and now use the unofficial rom
