Hi guys, please I need some help with my xperia z, it presently does not get any network regardless of changing sim. Dis occurred few days after upgrading to newest firmware .67. It worked fine after some days but signal started gettin poorer.realised dat after givin the phone a little bump it comes back to full signal.eventually it stopped getting network altogether, except in rare cases when I feel I'm close to a tower , it searches but cannot register on the network sayin to ensure that a network signal is in range 99asu.I also cannot switch to manual select of network. 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
I had a similar issue and found that my "APN" was missing (Telcel Mexico). I created a new APN from information on the Internet and all is well.

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.
How can I downgrade my Xperia Z from lollipop 5.0.2, 10.6.A.0.454 to kitkat 4.4.4. I don't know how to do? Can anyone tell me, pls.
Because in lollipop, tethering is not working, not USB nor Hotspot. And even after lots of reaserch I didn't find any answer to how to do that or fix that. So I finally decided to downgrade. Please help me
Thanks

It creates hotspot and other devices can connect to it but no internet sharing. Not even by USB tethering. Mobile data is on by the way.
Hope fix 5.1.1

You can download KitKat ftf file and flash it through Flashtool.
FYI, I've flashed to lollipop 10.6.A.0.454 with flashtool and all works just fine.
i am downgrading it to kitkat to work hotspot and to root my device also. I will root it on kitkat and then will update it to lollipop. Do you think is better idea? because rooting on lollipop having some issues and recovery options is not available yet. so,,, what do you think guys
HI
I have an xperia SP C5302, running on the factory version of 4.1 (No custom ROM, not yet updated)
I recently wanted to check if my phone has LTE support using *#*#4636#*#*, there i did find an option called LTE only in the network, i had a 4G sim inserted as well, but neither 3G nor 4G was coming on that phone , it was in EDGE for Idea bengaluru.
Note: I always use DOCOMO and i do get H+ signals(3G) in it.
Coming to my current problems, after changing and selecting couple of network (LTE/WCMA/EvDO/GSM, etc) and also playing with the "Change Band Settings"---Selecting USA BAND(the only one shown in the option) and performing a restart, my phone is unable to catch a signal at all.No network is being shown, even a manual network search initiation fails .I tried selecting "GSM only" as well..but no help:crying::crying: Please help me to restore my phone guys....)
C5302 does not support LTE. You may need to flash the stock ROM again to fix this issue. Since you're stock, use Xperia Companion for this matter
I have the same issue mmm my c5302 has 207 firmware

Do you use stock or custom rom? Is your phone rooted? Is this happening for just one Wi-Fi network or any Wi-Fi network?
