So this morning i noticed on my way to work that my cell network icon has a "!" mark next to it, with no indication of the connection type (LTE, H ect). at first i thought it was because i had no internet connection for some reason, however, when i pull the notification shade down i see the icon for network connection has the connection type (says LTE) as well as the "!". So the notification shade had LTE and the ! while the status bar icon only had the "!". I confirmed that access to the internet was fine by checking websites and running speed tests. Anyone experience this issue?

I did as I posted in my other thread about this. Now if there is a way to put my Preferred Network Type back to "Global" instead of LTE (recommend) I switched it because I thought I had no internet either until it showed LTE on the notification shade too.
Looks like it was a problem with tmobile this morning, back to normal now

Hello,
i had something strange on my diamond for a while now, the network band icon on the upper bar of the windows mobile changes all the time.
i wouldnt bother if it changes "E" to "H" of to "G" but for each it seems to have two icons, i.e: it sometimes shows the "E" icon with solid white background, and sometimes shows the "E" icon with gray partially transparent background.
is there any differences between the both "E"s?
btw this happens with the "H" as well, not sure about the "G"!

not 100% but recall the more grey icons meaning roaming

roaming is indicating by a triangle on the bar, plus i shouldn't be roaming on my network :S
I attached screen shots of both cases!
any clue?
if the icons grey, normally u are unable to connect with the internet. i think the problem lies on o2. i live in austria and use t-mobile. 1 year ago i've got the same icons - and in the time where the icon were grayed i was unale to connect with the internet, but after 3 days everything was fine (automatically)...
which rom did u use?

Hi, The phone icon at the top (next to speaker, battery, etc. icons) displays an exclamation mark (!), and when I tap it, it says 'No Service'. I clicked on Settings and went to the Network tab then clicked Find Network, but it still doesn't connect to any network. However, it still shows 3 or 4 signal bars when I tap it for the first time and then it brings up the larger icons, but it doesn't connect to the network.
I am on Orange UK, and the phone can connect to GPRS / 3G, but not to the actual network.
Sorry if anything is unclear btw
Thanks in advance
have you typed in the sim code?
Sorry, i'm not sure what you mean? I went into an Orange shop and he activated the Sim, and said it should be ready in 24 hrs, however it still does not work over 24hsr later.
any help for this?
i have the same problem...
sometimes i get reception, but only when the G-icon on top is not showing (but only H or E-Icon). I tried removing and disabling all 3G stuff, but still doesnt work.
Guys, any help?
Hi when i 1st got my xperia z there was a icon on the top notification bar, can't remember what it was but i know it had 3 there for my network, but there isn't one any more, the phone is official 4.2.2 updated and rooted, there is no icon appearing for 3G/GSM etc is there anyway to turn these on....?
Which icon are you referring to, and what is the icon that you are seeing now?
See here for the list of the icons:

What i get at the moment is the Signal strength icon which sometime has a Small H with it, I also get the Wif and Battery Icon but i don't get, EDGE, 3G, Sending and downloading 3G data, Sending and downloading EDGE data,
I get all other notification icons appearing like email etc, but no Status Icons for 3G or Edge.
I just wondered if they had been turned off somewhere..? But i can't find any options for them. I dunno if they are in the build prop like the NFC icon i set this to true and that now appears.
Network icons:
H or H+: you're connected to 3.5G / UMTS network.
3G: you're connected to 3G network.
E: you're connected to EDGE network.
Each icon will appear depends on what network you're connected to. And they will NOT appear when you're connected to wifi.
About the data upstream / downstream indicators, look for small upwards and downwards triangle under the network icons (of course when you're not connected to wifi).

Ah thanks for the info, i didn't know about if your connected to wifi they wont show, and i didn't know that H was 3.5G.
Hi there. Hope all of you are enjoying your Z1 as much as I am. I'm very pleased so far... well except for the locked bootloader and no root part. I honestly don't know what anyone is complaining about in regards to the screen. Sure the viewing angles aren't great, but it's not a tv. And the color accuracy is among the best I've seen.
That said there's a couple thing off the top of my head...
The notification bar changes from black to a dull grey when in dialer or settings. Maybe it did this all along and I just noticed but it's bugging the hell out of me. Anyone else experience this?
Also periodically at home I'll lose LTE. The icon will show 4G, but not LTE below it. Not a problem, but when I search the "Service Providers" in "Mobile Network Settings" I will find an LTE network, but there's a check mark next to the 3G T-Mobile network. If I select the LTE network it immediately connects to that. It makes me wonder if it would automatically switch over to LTE later (presumably on a stronger signal). Any thoughts?

I can only assume it is that there's a stronger HSPA+ signal than the LT signal. Can't comment on anything else - sorry. By the way, the Z was a locked bootloader, right? But, we found ways around that and for root?

Your base assumption is probably correct. I haven't seen this problem specifically, but the phone is probably being less aggressive about LTE where the signal is weaker to save battery.

Hello all,
I purchased Xperia z1 recently. Mobile is working nice. I got problem when I was on roaming when data is enabled.
Data connected symbol(E, 3G,H or H+) is overlapped by The roaming symbol (R). I can see only two down and up arrows which blinks while browsing.
I cant figure out if mobile is connected to 2G or 3G.
In samsung mobiles it shows data connected at left side of network signal and roaming icon as triangle.
Is there any solution for this?.
