Signal drop - Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem with my Galaxy Advance.
After every 5-6 hours , the signal drops and I must restart the phone. After that, it works normally, but after another several hours the signal drops again. I am living in Romania. I tried to flash the stock ROM and newest Italy's officialy update , but the problem still exists. I tried also CarbonRom, SlimKat, Vanir and LiqudSmooth. The problem remain.
What can I do ?
Sorry for my bad English.

I got same thing on 4.4.4. ROMs, and I was on LQL baseband. I got back to stock JB since that problem, did no find solution.

I had nothing but trouble with the Italian LQL firmware and signal dropping or no signal at all... And it always showed me as roaming.

If I would try another stock rom with another baseband, it could fix the problem? If yes, please recommend me a stable stock ROM. Is a baseband bug or KitKat's ?
Thanks for answers!

Try UBLPK, the Argentina one, just the normal Argentina. It's fine for me.

I had the same problem and last week i found that it doesn't a problem of smartphone but the SIM. I don't know if it is the same for you, try to put another SIM and see if it will solve.

Which Baseband Works Best For You?

I think the Baseband is much important in a Rom. I tried Lots of Baseband for me the best XXKPK. Someone telling XXKPG and the other one XXKPM etc. For example my phone connect with 11 Mpbs with KPM , 36 Mpbs with KPK in my garden same position.
Is there any app or something to try and get real results?
This should not be something relatively or the Baseband is not personel for me good and for other bad.
Lets make something with this Subject together.
Regards.
battery drain is also very dependent on baseband. so do you want the one with best battery drain, best reception or best balance?
the baseband of the latest firmware which is via kies available in you region should be the best
for me the lastest XXKPM it has not changed to a lot in the several signals, the only obvious change is the 2G that now it goes very faster also in the switch

I can confirm that, esp. for 2G
also battery drain is bit better now (before stock and KPK)
and call quality is better and that is what I like most of the new baseband. Less noise.

So, the Baseband is change by country. Therefore XXKPM is really bad for me..
My matter is, There is no firmware for Turkey. Im searching for 3 days but couldnt find anything.

For you, ZSJV1,,
I'm using XXKPM and it works like a charm for me. Don't know if it's a placebo or not, but i feel the wifi signal better when i'm far from the router, and also 2G is faster. Also calls are better. Less noise.

Please anybody with a solution. Want to know if its a hardware or software problem. I don't have a sony service centre here that can help me.thanks

What model do you have??
You upgraded by PC Companion or by flashtool?? Maybe the baseband is incorrect and the phone don't have signal, maybe your carrier use two band and not both are in all coverage.

Initially upgraded to .434 using flashtool, then .67 by OTA. By baseband do u mean 2g and 3g? Cos I don't get any form of signal at all.
Hi there, I have had the same problem: after updating the XZ to 4.2.2 (2.67 over OTA) the signal dropped instantly. Therefore I had to send it back Sony Care. They fixed it. The update has overwritten a different smallband/baseband-version above the other one, just as I suspected. I bet you can flash it yourself (your an XDA user..) instead of waiting 2 weeks or more. If you don't know how it works and you've absolutely no experience with flashing, just send it back to Sony care.
I think the easiest way is to flash a different (older) baseband-version on your XZ, reboot/factory reset and see if it works. The second method is to try downgrading the software to .244 INCLUDING the baseband-version, then update it by flashing the XZ to 2.67 while EXCLUDING the baseband-version. The third option is to re-flash (with flashtool) the 2.67 update but a different version (GLOBAL).
My phone details:
Modelnumber: C6603
Android-version: 4.2.2
Smallbandversion: 9x15A-ACEFWMAZQ-30110068-44
Kernelversion: 3.4.0g43a9ba9
Buildnumber: 10.3.1.A.2.67
Altough your smallband/baseband may differ from mine. Therefore, please find your own software-version. I'm using:
GLOBAL-LTE_10.3.1.A.2.67 (Netherlands)
Goodluck! Please let us know about your issue:fingers-crossed:.

But what Xperia Z model do you have?? C6603, C6602, C6606??
I have a similar situation in the case of C6603, in my carrier sometimes I have 2G signal but never 3G and other times no signal. In the case of OTA or PC Companion updates, sometimes upgrade to diferent model or carrier, I have a friend that upgrade his Xperia Arc by PC Companion but with the uncarrier firmware. Maybe this is your case, the OTA firmware don't well upgrade your base band.
In this case I suppose that you can flash only the baseband by Flashtool, but be carreful that the firmware was made for your Xperia Z (C6603, C6602, C6606).

Look this: C6602 10.3.1.A.2.67 STOCK
If you have doubts and I can help you tell me.
To find your version, just dial *#*#7378423#*#* => service info => software info => File system version: ......; download it from Xda and (re-)flash it. I've read about this; it happens a lot with XZ's with the GLOBAL firmware. You've probably the same version. Good luck and please let us know

Try to flash full firmware, because you don't have signal at all, maybe could be hardware issue. Cultural question, You try your sim card in another phone, don't you?
Okay I eventually found out what the problem was.it's a hardware problem, connection of the antenna near the vibrator, bottom right when lookin at back of phone was loose.thanks to all who posted suggestions.eventually opened it myself.

C6903 Indian ROM needed

Hello Guys,
I have been trying some firmwares lately and the KitSlim_AMG one has been great for me.
But I do get signal drops in between sometimes. Maybe some small issue.
So I wanted to switch to stock ROM for now.
I did search for a few C6903 roms, but the problem is they are not Indian ROM's and so whatever ROM i try to Flash, there is no signal reception on my phone. I have got a C6902 ROM but it doesnt work quite well, so I want only a C6903 ROM.
If anyone of you could get me a C6903 "INDIAN" Original ROM it would be very kind of you. I really need it soon.
Please ?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

[Q] Upgrading Baseband to 20C

There has been a fuzz lately about the new Baseband the LG has to offer us. Some people argue that by upgrading their baseband to 20C, the annoying problem with the RIL gets finally fixed, while others say that it's the same.
I am currently on CM11 M10, and my question is as follows:
Since I have RIL problems with my device and want to test out the new Baseband to see if it actually makes a difference, how can I (safely) do it?
From what I found out, 20C is only out for Italy and Germany. I live in Greece and I don't know if flashing a different country's Baseband would hurt my device. If someone would clarify that for me, that'd be great!
Also, the safest way to do it (as far as I know), is by flashing the kdz of 20C, and then re-flashing the ROM I was on previously (on my case CM11). Is that actually the way to do it? Are there any incompatibilities with 20C and CM11 M10?
Thank you in advance!
Some might find this questing a bit obvious, but since I've seen a lot of people complaining about RIL problems, while they haven't tried out 20C, I guess this will help them! :laugh:

OK, first thing is that I don't know if it fixes the issues, I haven't had it before (I'm not using pin protection) so I just can't say if it's fixed.
Anyway there are no compatilility issues since Greece is in European Union and Germany too. (I think there are some certificates that prooves frequecy compatibility for EU so I think that must be same for all countries in EU - like me in Czech Republic, next to Germany)
CM runs same as on my stock baseband 20B but you can easily flash your old baseband back if you encounter any issues
I hope I helped you a bit, try and report yourself.
also you can backup your current data and rom in recovery and flash 20C + recovery (it will be wiped). Then you can restore your backup. Bootloader remains unlocked.

Thank you for your response. So if I got this right, flashing a ROM (like CM) most of the times does not change my Baseband. My baseband remains the same from whichever I had from the KDZ, unless I flash a ROM that changes my Baseband (CM is not one of those). Is this correct?

nope baseband is not related to rom, it's related to kdz (firmware from lg) you flash
