[Q] WiFi problem with MIUI

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

[Q] Xperia Z 6603, 10.3.1.A.0.244/ 10.3.1.A.2.67 - mobile data problem

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

[HELP] Wi-Fi problem after mm update- SM_9208

My note 5 is the duos version, imported in Romania from Taiwan (SM_9208) After updating to Marshmallow yesterday, everything worked fine except for on thing: it doesn't find my Wi-Fi network from home anymore and the only way I can connect to it is by going to,, add network " and manually inserting the ssid and PASSWORD because it doesn't appear on the available networks list. Thst means that every time I turn my wireless off and then on, I have to repeat that process.
I haven't had the chance to try any other WiFi network, but I tried with other phones to connect to the network and they found it and connected to it without any problem. Furthermore, any third party app like WiFi analyser is able to see the network.
Do you guys have any idea how I could possibly solve this?
Thank you and have a wonderful day!

Try to backup your phone and then do a factory reset.

I factory reset after update OTA and everything work perfect.

uhm... does n9208 has update for MM already? if you have links kindly share tnx in advance

I tried doing the factory reset and it still has that problem.
And I did receive the update yesterday through OTA.
Other suggestions? Thank you, guys!

First, try clearing the cache again. If it still does not work, the update may have downloaded improperly so some file are corrupted. It will continue to use the same corrupted files even if you reset. Have your tried flashing the stock Taiwan Rom using Odin?

//LATER EDIT: I finally made it work by simply changing the wireless network's name. For some reason, my phone wouldn't find the network with its default name.

Because the p8 lite fail the wifi?

Hi, I would like to know why p8 lite are failing wifi, is it remittance or do they all fail? I have been told that September 2015 is true?
Does anyone know why they fail exactly if it is a manufacturing or are they all X time? Thank you

I never had that problem, P8 Lite, 574 ROM

Hi, I also have the 574 rom yet after installing a emui software update a couple of months ago, the wifi slider is greyed out. There's no way to connect to wifi or bluetooth. Ive unlocked and rooted it, could installing an older rom fix the issue or is this hardware related? Thanks in advance

Wi-fi problems

Hi guys,
I am having an issue with my p10.
There are some times where wifi despite being on it stops working, and only rebooting fixes the problem.
It happens with more than one wifi network.
If anyone has a clue to fix this please advise...
Thank you!

Hi, have you fixed the issue? I'm facing the same problem now - wifi stops working and my p10 is unable to search for any network. Before last o/s update only restart would fix the problem, now i have to turn wifi off and on again, but still...

Thanks...it works

I have the same problem.... I do not realize why but after some time my p10 disconnects from my WI FI network. I try to reconnect but I can't do it. Sometimes I received a wrong password message or just can't connect. I have tried the solution mentioned here but the problem remains. I have to reset one or twice in order to reconnect. There are other devices in the network but mine is the only with this issue. Could you please help me with your valuable suggestions?

You can try updating with Firmware Finder. More info is in the Guides Forum. B106 and 108 have been issued for C521; you can install them if they are approved for your IMEI. Or you can wait :silly:
