Mi8 Constantly turning off wifi and turning off mobile data - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

Hi,
My phone keeps on giving out no service and it also turns off the wifi. Sometimes it can't even find a wifi. Every time it says theres no signal my sim card name changes from 3 (My network) to SIM 1 I hope that has something to do with it. This all started happening when I updated my phone to the latest update (MIUI 10.3.5.0) and since then I can bearly use my phone as its constantly changing internet connections and not working.
Hope you guys know a fix.

Problem connecting to my network Please help!!

the weirdest thing happened to me, my phpne was working fine, i flashed fearkill fr13 after a full wipe coming from fr12 mcr.
It worked well for a couple of hours and all of the sudden i cant connect to my network. The only way it connects is by enabling 2g networks only and even like that i cant make any calls. I have even tried reinstalling the baseband 405 and nothing works...
My network is fine by the way, its just my phone
Please help me!!
Edit:
A little more info:
I tried a different sim card with the same results
Whenever i try to search for a network it just stays thinking for a while and does nothing
When I try to do it automatically it says it cannot connect to the network at this time immediately...
I managed to make a call on 2g networks only but as soon as i remove the check i cant connect
Edit 2:
Woooooow, this just gets weirder by the second!!
I can connect to the internet with wifi disabled and a clear X on the network as in no network connection... I can browse the internet just fine, NO CALLS though
... after countless Wipes and installing plenty of roms With no luck i gave up and as soon as i Woke up it Was Working again... strange but im happy
Guess it was your network after all
maybe, i had a blackberry beside it with a working 3g connection :S
And no idea how to explain 3g working with no bars and an x on it haha
O have problems with my network connection too.
In some rooms at my house I can get 3G access and in another room only EDGE.
Several times per day I can't get access to the network anyway. The only way to solve the probölem is to restart the phone.
Sometimes my phone tells me it is connected but there is no data transfer for several hours. I noticed that when I got home and many emails from the last hours appeared after being connected to my wifi.
I'm using the MCR but I've also tried the ROM from romkitchen-org. Changing the baseband had no effect.
I'll have a try with the stock ROM. If this would fail too I'll send my phone back to the dealer. I think it could also be an hardware defect.

Signal issues?

Is anyone having signal issues with the axon pro? My phone keeps going in and out of signal, and while my status bar says that I have "no service" I will have full bars, but only when connected to WiFi. When not connected to WiFi, all the bars are lost.
Is anyone else experiencing these signal issues or bug of this sort? Just trying to determine the root of the problem.

When did you start having problems? After the latest update?
I think it is a problem with the Wifi calling feature. After trying wifi calling and having problems (the other person couldn't hear me), I decided to turn it off.
After turning it off I started having crazy issues - the wifi calling would turn on even though I had turned it off. After turning off wifi completely, data wouldn't work so I rebooted the phone. After rebooting the phone, I couldn't get a signal at all. I tried rebooting the phone multiple times but the signal wouldn't come back. I switched SIMs and it still wouldn't work. At this point I was thinking there was a hardware problem with the phone so I was considering calling ZTE to get a new one. But I tried one last thing - I turned wifi back on and made a wifi call - the signal came back! So it is a software problem.
So I turned on wifi calling again but configured for "cellular preferred". It seemed to work well for a while, but then a few days later went crazy notifying me every few seconds that wifi calling was turning on/turning off.
To keep the phone stable I have now unfortunately had to setup the phone with "Wifi Calling Preferred". Thankfully soon after I did this I started getting error "REG09: Missing 911 address" so it doesn't try to use wifi calling anymore.
No point calling ZTE support because their phone support is appallingly bad. They won't understand the issue, they won't give me a ticket number. All they will say is either "reset the phone" or try to send me a new phone which will just make me lose time and lose data. They had a website where you could raise tickets for a little while...but it looks like it has been blocked now as it could have been too useful .

Trying posting to their Twitter account and report the issue, that is how i got their attention. Also when you call them (here in the USA) tell them that you have already done a reset on your phone and that did not resolve the issue!!!

I got some signal issues too I only get 2 to 3 tower usually but at time its completely dead and until I reboot my phone signal doesn't Pop up ...and at times even though I have like 2 signal tower it shows emergency calls oly...I don't use WiFi calling as am on straight talk.but the WiFi calling feature suddenly pops up in the notification bar giving an error message u can't swipe that off the notification bar too u gotta go to MORE in settings and switch on and switch off the WiFi calling feature to remove the error msg from the notification bar .
Signal keeps fluctuating call clarity is a lil bit poor comparing it to my old lg g2 . macro focus doesn't work at all u can't focus a thing that's really close in auto. I dono what to do with this phone.it just doesn't satisfy the basic need of a phone voice calls and message(messages take a long time to send ).

Again, not worth my breath. If you check the new thread someone called up ZTE about the issue and they blamed it on T-Mobile (which is complete and utter BS). When I called about the camera issues they tried to blame it on Google. Why waste my time to be told lies? The support is completely s***.

Well hopefully ZTE will come out with a fix really soon, I don't think that they want to lose the users they have.......
Loss of at&t signal
In one location that I frequent I always sit there without a cellular signal while people around me are using their cell phones
LTE signal strength sporadic
My Pro shows a few bars for a couple seconds,then NO SIGNAL for a few seconds. ZTE is not fixing this problem? It has been going on since January. Now is September.
For those with this issue, does a factory reset change this behavior, or at least the frequency of it?

problem with india network.

I recently bought rog phone 2 from flipkart in India. My device is working fine. But i noticed there is one problem with the phone and it had happened many times that it automatically reset its network.
Like it automatically turns off wifi ,both sim signal for 10 sec and turn it back on again. This happens once or twice in a day at any period of time.
Sometimes network goes blank and i need to restart the device.
Please help me out if anyone finds the solution. Or people having the same problem.
same
i also have this problem, and im from philippines, seems like the phone triggered the airplane mode, wifi, bluetooth and sim network on and off randomly, you didnt notice the wifi on and off because wifi connects very fast..

you could try do disable Wi-Fi scanning - search in the settings for 'scanning' and under Wi-Fi scanning, disable wifi and bluetooth. it may just fix the issue... so i have read on the telegram group forum

Wifi constantly dropping after 58.1.A.5.441 update [w/ workaround]

My XQ-AT52 (dual sim HK) became unusable after recent 58.1.A.5.441 update. Wifi constantly connects - disconnects every few seconds, and after several tries, it gives up then nothing would show up in wifi list. Tried airplane mode/reboot/factory reset/software repair and no luck.
After hours of desperately poking around settings and google, a weird workaround was found: turn on hotspot first, then connect wifi like usual. It keeps connected and fully working until the second hotspot gets turned off. I guess maybe an overly aggressive battery-saving rule was introduced in the update, wrongfully shuts down normal wifi connections and got overridden by hotspot. But I can't find any proof in logcat.
Hopefully this will be fixed in the next update.
Edit:
Upgrade to 58.1.5.474 did NOT fix this problem.
Upgrade to 58.1.5.530 and problem fixed.
I'm having a related issue with Xperia 5 II (XQ-AS52 Dual), seemingly since the same update 58.1.A.5.441.
For me the problem is that 5GHz networks work fine for around one day, then they get disconnected for no apparent reason. At this point, 5GHz networks won't show up in the list of Wifi networks until I restart the phone. Then I can see and connect to 5GHz again but the same problem re-occurs after around one day. Really annoying !
No issue though with the 2.4GHz networks apparently.
I wanted to downgrade to the previous firmware to confirm my suspicion, but can't find it on the web for my region (EU).
