[SOLVED][D503][5.1.1] Wifi keeps dropping after 5.1.1 update

Hello,
After getting the latest 5.1.1 OTA (build 23.4.A.0.546), my Wifi connection keeps dropping irregularly: sometimes the connection is stable for one hour, most of the times it drops after a few seconds. This happens on any Wifi network (tried both home, work and public Wifi).
Sometimes after a reboot the WLAN mac address is "unknown" and then I can't get a connection at all (I have to reboot until my mac address "comes back")
The connection drop happens in Safe mode as well.
Steps I've tried to fix this:
-Repair phone with PC Companion => doesn't change anything, Wifi is even unavailable during the setup process after initial boot.
-Tried flashing with Flashtool to a previous Lollipop version (5.0.2 23.1.A.128 which worked fine with my phone before) =>
doesn't work: I can't flash the device, despite installing the latest (0.9.19.0) version of Flashtool and the drivers, I have the following error when preparing the firmware:
Code:
16/054/2015 18:54:07 - INFO - Selected Bundle for Sony Xperia Z3 Compact (D5803). FW release : 23.1.A.1.28. Customization : Customized_FR
16/054/2015 18:54:07 - INFO - Preparing files for flashing
16/054/2015 18:54:07 - ERROR -
16/054/2015 18:54:07 - INFO - Cannot open bundle. Flash operation canceled
The firmware was downloaded through Mega, with a link provided in the Xda forum thread with the firmwares list.
For the sake of it, I tried with two different firmwares: another downloaded from the forum, and one from Xperifirm; unfortunately the same error happens in Flashtool when preparing the firmware.
Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks.

I'm using same version firmware and the Wifi works perfectly. have you tried deactivate "Auto IP support" and "Passpoint"? and try turn off Stamina mode.

Yes, both Auto IP support and Passpoint are deactivated.
The issue persists with or without Stamina mode activated as well.

I've downloaded two firmwares from that list and tried to flash my phone with Flashtool without success.
I already had installed the drivers while disabling the Driver Check Enforcement as specified on your link, and tried with the method described in http://www.xperiablog.net/2015/03/17/guide-to-installing-xperia-lollipop-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool/ as well but I'm having the same error message.
Any idea on how what I could have missed to make Flashtool work?
Thanks for your help.

Make sure you have the latest version of Flashtool and place it on root path C:/ or external HDD E:/ G:/ and so on. Firmware must be placed in C:/users/<your username>/.firmware (not sure if it is correct)

Thanks to you, I was able to find my mistake: I was foolishly trying to create the bundle from the downloaded firmware, but I just needed to paste the downloaded firmware in the folder: C:\Users\<UserName>\.flashTool\firmwares
I was able to flash my device with the 5.0.2 Lollipop version and the WiFi is working fine so far.
Still don't know why I had problems with 5.1.1 in the first place but I can work with the previous version while waiting for 6.x.x.
Thanks again for your help.

I'm having WiFi issue on 5.1.1 too, on my Z3 compact. Sometimes (seeming randomly) after waking the phone, the wifi icon in the status bar has a ' ! ' next to it for a while and I don't get an internet connection untill the ' ! ' is gone. Usually takes around 5 to 15 seconds.

Huawei P9 issues with Nougat

Since updating my device to nougat beta it's had constant issues.
- Can't connect to any PC unless in recovery mode
- no themes will work
- Cant play back recorded videos
- battery drain
Etc.....
Tried to downgrade back to MM but no method seems to work.
Have tried doad method with internal and external SD Card, all updates get to 51% then fail
Have tried both L09C432B136 and B166. Both are full stock roms and still nothing.
Any help would be much appreciated

This problems looks ordinary :/ ...as you know Nougat is not fit for P9 -yet-, and your Nougat version is not official.
Did you try HiSuite for the turn to Android 6 (official).
Also i think you can downgrade your device with this tool... (it's only a suggestion).

you are right... I think, we have to wait for the right firmware....

Okay,
I have played around further with the newest L19C185B361.
Here is what i got so far:
Update through Firmware Finder is at this stage useless! Update will stop at 38% and or 5%
Update through forced update using Dialer *#*#2846579#*#* yields the same result! Stops at 38% and 5%!
Flashing through TWRP works but couple of error messages " unmount /cust failed" and "mount /cust failed"
Phone boots into Nougat but no keyboard on setup so no chance to setup google as speech is useless for setting up
Also shows NRD90M Test Keys as build!
Have to admit so that EMUI 5 looks good
Roll back seems to work with rollback package and full package of L19C185B210....does take a view times til it sticks!
Waiting for official Update over EMUI Updater

L31C432B370 OTA UPDATE Thanks to Prem222

This was posted just now in my thread and is currently downloading an OTA update. I think it deserves its own thread and thanks.
"how to
In Europe, try this :
Open Hicare, update Hicare, agree to terms of system update, download and update to b370 or b 371."
Its a 1.99GB file so presumably complete with data as well

Is your phone a single sim or dual sim? Exact version of firmware?

My phone is twin sim and was C432B160. Can confirm that download complete, reboot and after about 10 seconds of 0% and verify has moved to 62% and verifies again, holds for about 45 seconds and says installing but stays on 62% till it jumps to 98% and then report success. Now rebooted and optimising. More to follow

Confirm success and no data loss. Just going through apps to check. Cannot give enough credit to Prem222 for finding this method.
Dual sim still active

Good! Is the firmware version B370 or B371?

I installed this update without problems, but now bluetooth does not work anymore, I can't even activate it. Does anyone else have this issue?

Its 370

Bluetooth is working.

No updates available.

Some details:
worked for VNS-L31C432B160 > VNS-L31C432B370, (dual sim).
Took a while.
As for 1,5 hour of using everything seems to be working.
Bluetooth - calls and sending attachment ok.
Both sims ok.
Calls ok.
Camera, flash etc ok.
Huawei share works ok.
In the phone manager there is a virus scan ( by Avast).
Thanks goes to SirBeherit from forum.android.com.pl
Looks very fresh

This is not working for VNS - L21C432B336 right?

vns-l31c432b161 to b371 (single sim) in upgrade, thank you man
Edit downloaded but fail update

There is no update on my VNS-L21C432B160... any suggestion?
I also tried to change the location in the HiCare app but that isn't working.

I have no keyboard (i tried to factory reset but it fail) , what should i do?
Before using this method i installed stock rom so i was unrooted and i had locked bootloader...i can't understand why it happened...
The update size was like 1.25 gb.

I have mm b161 with root and recovery twrp. What should i do to update to nougat 371?

Nope, no updates available (C432, Austria). April fool's?

When I flashed back to 161 from 360, I didn't get the OTA update as well, so I just downloaded the required files and flashed it myself via TWRP (because dload wouldn't accept the files for diff version?). Works well, better than B360.
Here are the versions:
B370 - for VNS-L31C432.
B371 - For VNS-L11C432.
If anyone wants to try flashing themselves, I could link the update and hw_eu files (I also factory reset after install, so all files and apps were gone, though the OTA may possibly not do that, have never tried an OTA).

Link me files please

L31C432...Marshmallow rooted
1.Download Hicare app from Playstore
2.Download B370 trough Hicare
3.Upgraded B370 via Hicare
4,Phone booted to twrp
5.Unpacking B370....
6.Phone booting (new boot image)
7.Optimizing system
8.Phone booted okay...

Anything for VNS-L21?

Settings doesn't control WiFi

Suddenly, I am not able to activate WiFi using Settings. It just hangs for a while and then tells me that Settings isn't working.. If I power off and then on, everything works OK.
Can I fix this?
Thanks.

Is this on original OxygenOS ROM? Sounds like your wifi driver crashed and burned, probably caused by something wrong in the driver or the userspace.
All you can do is make sure your system is updated, and if that doesn't help, do a factory restore and hope for the best.

I have unbricked a op3T 128gb today and i'm having the same issue. i bought the phone bricked and i have no info about the history of it. after the unbrick process i have oxygenos 3.5.1 android 6.0.1 on it. Kernel is 3.18.20-pref+
if i think about it someone might updated it and now it needs the modem updating or something? how can i update everything to latest oxygenOS trough Abd or without any wifi?
Wifi mac address is 02:00:00:00:00:00 hmmm....

You can always download the latest full OOS zip to the root of the internal storage, rename it to update.zip and the just enter normal recovery using volume up and power to let it install.
