Hello,
I have just flashed MIUI Gingerbread 2.4.20-RC3 to my GT-S5570, everything looks great, except WiFi, when I turn on WiFi, it says "Scanning" finds my WiFi and then "disconnected" and again shows "Scanning" for 1 sec and again "disconnected", what can I do?
WiFi Error
You need to revert to your old stock rom, because the drivers for WiFi aren't working. Same thing happened on my mobile phone, when I flashed it with the newer firmware. Didn't really find the solution to this problem, but solved it by going back to my old rom. Hope this helps.
You can also try typing this code into your phone: #*#*526#*#*
It might work for you.
Best of luck.

Thank you for reply.
It is working now, here is what I did: In phone settings I tried to change themes lock screen to other, but unfortunately not default lock screen was way too big (very big resolution) so I was not able to unlock my phone any more, once I found that I can do it pressing back+volume down, it helped to unlock, but MIUI was crashed and stopped working, so I had to wipe all data and cash, to reset default settings, after this, everything works great now.

the same thing was happening to me (on the same rom)>> "fixed" it by reseting the notebook-hot-spot (connectify) I use
[sometimes even a simple wi-fi turn on/off or rebooting the device would help too]
I'm posting this in order to prevent you from doing more drastic stuff :cyclops:
hope it' helps
Hello All,
I am afraid this not is going to be a short and easy story... I will try to be short
After the Stock update to 4.4.2 i got finally fed up with the fact that the long awaited KitKat drains battery like a power addict and decided to go back to stock 4.2.2 - which, for me, solves two problems - in this version the Bluetooth connectivity in my car works properly and the battery is used more 'soberly' as well as that I can easily root it and clear all the bloatware.
I found several stock versions of 4.2.2 - e.g. C6603_10.3.1.A.0.244_Generic NCB.ftf, C6603_10.3.1.A.0.244_CE.ftf, C6603_10.3.1.A.2.67_CE.ftf
After flashing them with the latest flashtool everything seems fine - battery, bluetooth,wifi etc. BUT the mobile data has the following problem: the phone connects to 4G, 3G and GPRS, but apart from Youtube none of the applications is able to use the Internet connection from the mobile operator. This to me seems like a problem with DNS resolution but I do not have any firewalls etc. installed or activated.
It may be worth mentioning that when Chrome tries to connect to a web address (e.g. xyz) for an instant there is a message on the screen "Redirecting you to xyz web address", maybe this is the place where it goes wrong? Needles to say that the connection to the specified website is not possible because "Chrome could not find the xyz page"... (this does not happen on wifi connection).
I would be very grateful if U could suggest a way out !
Have you tried downloading the Internet setting ?
at setting -> xperia -> Internet setting.

Hi,
I reloaded the Internet settings from my operator several times, also changed to another sim. What is really puzzling is that Youtube has no problem with connecting. There is something funny going on with the DNS service I suppose....
Any thoughts ?
Thx

Hello - thanks for this attempt, but unfortunately no luck with it. Here is what I did (please check if I understood you correclty):
1) downloaded - C6603_10.4.1.B.0.101_CE.ftf (4.3)
2) flashed 4.3.(above) with Flashtool (wiping all)
3) restarted - mobile data could be accessed by Chrome and other apps
4) flashed 4.2.2 ver 10.3.1.A.0.244 and then 10.3.1.A.2.67 with the data wipe disabled,
Result - again in 4.2.2 the mobile data is not available to apps other than Youtube ...
Any more thoughts on this?
Thanks again !

Another solution will be root the 4.2.2 using easyroot
flash prerooted 4.4.2
download no frills cpu from playstore and under-clock the processor a bit it will greatly improve battery life.I am doing the same :good:

OK - So I see where we have a misunderstanding ... I wanted to go back to 4.2.2. which worked fine for me for the small exception of the mobile data transmission but not go up to 4.4.2.
I am looking for a solution to make the 4.2.2. work with data transmission.
Could you give this a thought ? I would appreciate it a lot!
Regards!

I gave 4.4.2 solution because the data issue is sufficing in 4.2.2 repeatedly
and from what i had read the only issue you had with 4.4.2 was battery drain so gave you a solution for 4.4.2 :silly:

Your help is very much appreciated!
The reason I keep trying with 4.2.2 is that I am also struggling with the bluetooth issue: on anything above 4.2.2. - simply does not connect to my car's buletooth handsfree....
Thanks anyway. I need to decide whether I have the bluetooth and no mobile data or mobile data and no bluetooth, Seems like Sony is not too generous ...

Yes:
4.3 - mobile data is ok, bluetooth not compatible with my car ... :crying:
When I tried to flash 4.2.2. over 4.3 without wiping data I got bootloped...
Thanks for trying to help !
Do you think that there is a way to use the bluetooth functionality from 4.2.2 on 4.3? How could it be done?

Maybe you can try flashing the 4.2.2 via flashtool (wipe everything) to solve this problem, please give it try.
Actually, 4.3 works without bugs so far and have no thoughts about what causes this problem.

Hello - thanks! I tried complete wipe/flash of 4.2.2 and that's where my problem is - 4.2.2 data transmission in mobile is lost whereas on 4.3 or above my bluetooth does not communicate with my car's handsfree (this issue is being reported by many users after upgrade to 4.3.)
So I am stuck ... for the moment I am staying on 4.3 and getting really tired of this whole Xperia stuff

Hello barbacan! I've got exactly the same situation here. I was on 4.2.2 becouse it was latest firmware that worked with my car (Opel Insignia DVD800). A week ago I had motherboard failure, so I send my phone for a replacement. I received a brand new one with 4.4.2 installed which of course didn't communicate with my car. So I flashed exactly the same 4.2.2 file which I use with previous phone, but this time data transmission did not work. When I upgraded to 4.4.2 transmission was back again. I think Sony have changed something in newer phones hardware and they are not compatible with older firmwares. I've been serching for a few days, but couldn't find any solution...
Ok, I think I have found the solution. Changing APN settings from default IPv6 to IPv4 resolved the issue for me. Just change it in settings, save, reboot the phone and data transfer works again!

THANKS A LOT!
This is the solution.
I was suspecting something to do with DNS services but did not realize that Adroid 4.2.2. does not have IPV6 support. Now that I changed my APN from "InternetIPV6" to plain "Internet" the phone works like a charm. I will not be tempted to upgrade at any price

Well, it should be working. I had the same problem when I bought this phone.
The main problem was, that every ROM version's from 4.1 to 4.4.4 version's wasn't compatible with vibration module. What was I doing to re-wake it?
Firstly, try some of these tricks:
1. Go straight to your service menu (in the dialer dial this code: *#*#7378423#*#*)
2. After that, go to the services tab and click on "Vibrate"
3. And lastly, push and hold any volume rockers button to wake-up your vibration module.
It worked whether I used this tricks.
As far as I can see, this problem doesn't appear on the lollipop (AOSP 5.0) version.
I hope my message will help you somehow
Thanks But It's Not Working
when i got my first Z the vibration died in a day or so, could be a hardware related problem.(i had no problems replacing it, just took a while for me to explain that it's hardware related)
try hard reset, deleting all data etc, if it doesnt work, i hope you got your warranty

Next time please quote message, that can I see your answer.
As TorN-d- said before, you only 1 last chance - to reinstall your operating system. That can be done by using Sony PC Companion, which you can download straight from here: HERE
If it doesn't work, it may be that your phone has damaged vibration module which needs to be replaced
Hi,
I had the problem with Google Play Services with the no call sound issue, I've been trying different ways (i'm really inexpert in this) finally I've installed a storck ROM (waiting to get any OTA update that fixes the Play Services issue) and got this (image attached).
What can I do? thanks!
Edit: nevermind I've solved waiting until device got out of battery, in charging mode I' putted it recovery and flashed a new ROM on it and then installing a different ROM.
I still have the problem with no call sound, it isn't google play services, no! it was an update for HTC Lock Screen, so please if you have this same problem deactivate the auto update function for it on Play Store.
Hi
I have a problem my Bluetooth connection to my car (BMW E91 Nav Prof) dosnt work since the Android 6 Update. It works well again with a downgrade to Lolipop but the Perfomance etc is much better with Marshmallow.
Is it possible to downgrade only the Bluetooth files?
Already tried a lot Apps to fix the Problem, disconnet and connect the phone many times, delete Cache and use some other settings nothing helps, just the downgrade.
I got the newest official Sony software and root acces.
Could be nice if somebody help me to fix the problem

Unfortunately I don't think so.
But to be honest I would rather have stock Lollipop than Marshmallow lol.
But if you need Marshmallow then try Concept Software.
