I'm using SP, but I realized that the WIFI signal is really weak compared to all other devices~
The received signal is only 0 to 1 bar on my SP while my iPhone 4, Xperia X10 all devices can get 3 to 4 bars...
And my SP will be disconnected easily while all other devices do not have this problem...
Is there any solution or recommendation?
I am also facing this problem with my phone and when Samsung galaxy s advance catches signal but my phone did not Get any wifi signal
I started a thread about that issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2306638
Because I also planning to buy this phone thanks for your feedback.
Also experinecing Wifi dropped off.Went to sony service center in Singapore, can not do anything about it, fill a formal complain regarding wifi weak signal;
1st call from Sony: Offered to replace my xperia SP to V, stupid! offered me to downgrade!
2nd call from Sony: Offered me to replace my unit to Xperia Z plus i need to top up SGD200, good deal but i refused, want REFUND
Not satisfied with wifi performance always dropping off!

I don't have the problem anymore. Try updating the firmware and turning off stamina mode.
Want refund? Not possible. I would pay $200 for the xperia z though. S$600 for an xperia z!

Support from SONY Website took a look and ask for some details.
Hopefully they will look into it.
Problem remains after update...
Sony Mobile support suggested on changing router settings (e.g. channel ). But, why don't other phones need those setting changes? And, of course, is it possible to change EVERY router's, that we use, settings?

Any news on the specific problem, most valuable for many of us...
(A developer friend insists on kernel problem. Is it so dificult to update the device's kernel?)

It is a baseband problem, not kernel. Updating basebands can be risky, as it might result in loss of wireless capabilities.
To put it simply, you might lose your WIFI, LTE and so on.
I have really good wifi signal. Don't have any problems with disconnecting and so on.
I don't have a problem, the wifi range seems to be similar to other phones I've had. But, I have noticed that even when the wifi signal strength indicator shows 1or even no bars, it still works with good speed. It seems like the indicator isn't calibrated that well.
I've also noticed the SP is quite critical how it's held in the hand with respect to wifi performance. The 3G antennas are at the bottom of the phone, but I think the wifi antenna might be near the top, so you need to modify how you hold it. Don't take this as fact, just something I thought I noticed last night when using wifi.

I have the same issue.
I had a senseless chat with Sony Support which resulted in that i can send the phone to my next Sony Repair Center.
So i tried several channels on my Router best results were on channel 1 and channel 11.
It is still not as strong like i am used to on other devices but much better than before.
Also i had the feeling that after flashing Doomlords new Kernel the signal got better, but that could be a wrong impression by me.

are u try setting your wifi to 11n or 11g/n i used SP and i dont think wifi signal weak
I think that if Sony wants to continue enjoying our respect, must publish an update that corrects the problem. It's a B I G problem to have a phone that disconects every 5-6 min even though the signal is good....
Hello, i ask about my xperia z1, signal is weak eventhough the wifi on other mobile is strong signal in same distance, what will i do? Can we fix this kind of problem? Tnx
I noticed that WiFi stops working on my new G4 pretty often. The WiFi icon is on, and the connection is "up", but the data transmission stops working. I see the top arrow blink (is that transmit?) but the bottom arrow doesn't come up anymore. Trying to do anything fails and times out.
To fix, turning the WiFi off and back on makes it all work again.
Anyone else experience this problem? I know @jonathan3579 reports the same issue.
I am connected to 5 Ghz using an Asus RT-N66 running Merlin firmware. I have no issues with any of my other devices.
Using the "Switch to mobile data" option helps a bit by falling back on LTE when the WiFi stops working.

I'm having the same issue at home. I could be watching a video and suddenly stops. I don't know if it has to do something with root. I noticed it starts happening yesterday. I never had this issue and I got this phone sine 5/27 when it was released. I'll do a factory reset.

I'm not rooted and mine has done it ever since I got it (and did a factory reset before setting it up). I doubt resetting yours will fix your problem.

Are you having this issue everywhere you go or just one specific place?
I had not noticed it at work, but I only got on the WiFi yesterday for a little bit. This morning it failed on me, so, that's two for two. Haven't used it in many places.
The hotspot works great though. I tether an iPod Touch in my car automatically whenever I drive and I haven't noticed any issues there.

I'm at work and I have been watching multiples videos and no issue at all.
I just noticed this today happening to me too. =(.
Pretty great phone otherwise! Also connected 5ghz to a RT-AC68U (the T-Mobile cellspot), flashed with an older Merlin firmware.
Had to reboot to get it to behave again.
Me too
I've been having this issue too. I've noticed that I lose data and WiFi calling simultaneously. I thought it was my router because we were having issues with the router dropping phones and laptop, but now with a new router it is only my phone that is having a problem.

Running DNSet has definitely helped with keeping the data flowing, and I appreciate that.
WiFi calling is still dropping. When I look in the settings it says "enabling" and just hangs.
What internet provider do you have I'm assuming Comcast

This issue appears to be due to the 5ghz radio. I am not sure if it is software or hardware, but if you connect to the 2.4ghz band, the issue will go away.
Its most likely a issue with lollipop

Lollipop on the G4 maybe, but I have used a Nexus 6, a Moto X and a Dell Venue 7840, all running Lollipop, without issues. The G4 is the only one that has this issue. I never tested my old G3 on this network with Lollipop, I sold it before the update rolled out.
Problem fixed?

I switched to 2.4 ghz and WiFi calling appears to be staying connected. My provider is Oceanic Time Warner and my router is T-Mobile cell spot.
Fingers crossed and thanks for all the help.
Did these wifi problems start after root?
Mine were happening before root, I think. I switched to T-Mobile cell spot router right before I rooted because my old router was regularly dropping connections, and I have been paying attention more since I rooted. I am also caring for 11 month old twins, so things are kind of a blur. What I am saying is I might not be the most reliable source. I can say that switching from 5ghz to 2.4ghz seems to have solved my WiFi issue.
Hi everybody,
I have a serious problem on my P30 pro.
Till one month ago il was working like a charme, but in the last month today is the 2nd day it does not want to connect to any wify at all. I tried everything (including the hard reset) but the problem is still there. It is not the router because other devices are correctly connected and it does not work even if I try to connect it to another phone via Hotspot. It is switching from "good connection" to "no connection" with the "!" randomly.
Probably tomorrow it will work but it is not nice it to behave like that.
I bought it on amazon but by now it is not available, if it was i would have asked for a complete replace.
Do you have any suggestion about what I could try?
Thank you a lot,
Lorenzo

I own it since the beginning of March, it got the update to the 190 in April. I checked and the 1st time I had this issue was the 2nd of May.
I think it is possible it is a problem of the last updates, but we have to understand if someone else has this issue.
I would be disappointed to make a replace.
Thumbs down to huawei.

I have similar problem which i resolve temporary. Check if you may use custom dns if you use disable it. In settings check if you have enabled smart network where wifi and data connection changes when wifi detect saved wifi spot
Disable that two things temporary fix my problem

I do, I use ad guard DNS and wifi+, but it usually works and sometimes it does not.
For instance by now the wifi is working, I went out a couple hours, came back and now it works without touching anything.
Thank you for your feedback, let's see if others have the same problem, which I'm starting to belive it is a bug, not acceptable in such a smartphone!

the same issue here vog29. 195 vodafone. de branded with. 190 it wasnt.
This software has so many bugs... With my lg h815 it was much more stabile. Great hardware high price bad Software. Huawei for me is really a disapointment

Hi,
I'm having exactly same issue since phone updated to 190. Sometimes it connects normally and sometimes connect with no internet access and a exclamation symbol. Tried to reboot hundred times, reset network configuration, but nothing works.

Also had this since updating yesterday 10.0.0.195.
Same on 195. Fixed by restarting my router and phone.
I'm on the 195 now, disabled wifi plus as suggested and yesterday wen I went out the 4g was not working, I had to toggle it on and off. Never happened on the 190 [emoji28]
Inviato dal mio VOG-L29 utilizzando Tapatalk
Same problem for me since the 195 Update.
It says Wifi is connected but without Internet. Strange thing is, if I disable mobile data and make a Speed test I have the full power of my Internet. But it still says I have no internet connection in the Wifi Symbol.
Same problem. Says "no internet access" when connecting to the Wifi network and displays an ! alongside the Wifi symbol in the menu bar. Connectivity drops and resumes with seemingly no explanation.
195 here,
Also the same problem, randomly I'm connected to WIFi but without NET I have to restart the phone, the first restart doesn't always work.
It's super annoying.
I can confirm i have the same problem. Usually connects to WiFi, but No internet access. Very annyoing, as all other devices works fine.
Sometimes it works, Sometimes it does not. No idea why.
Have same issue with. 190 i have net but phone says no connection. Updated to 195 and i think problem persists. Huawei is a ****ty manufacturer, with no development. Expensive and etc. If this phone wasn't a gift i would never buy huawei.
I have the same issue where the WiFi connects with no Internet access, the only way for this to be resolved is to move within 1 meter of the router. Has this been resolved yet?
I am using redmi 9t version MIUI Global 12.0.17 from two weeks, no update is available in pakistan.
Its wifi signal is very weak (Overall speed of internet near the wifi router is completely fine)
It sometime lost its connectivity during weak signals.
Should I wait for the new update by which Its signal strength may be better or may I sell it out in market because of its hardware issue ?
Your kind response will be highly appreciated.
thanks
First of all, do internet reset. If not help, try hard reset. And make sure that other device is fine in connecting to wifi.

It looks like there is a hardware issue in it .
I'm on 12.5.5.0 EU rom (last stable miui 12) and the wifi is unstable. It goes up and down and switching to mobile data.
I have tried ALL android (network/wifi global) settings but it doesn't help. Don't hope it is a hardware issue (wifi chip problem). Tried wifi data reset, bluetooth on/off, Wifi Access point on/off,.....
The only time it stays on wifi is when mobile data is turned off. If you turn on Extended wifi log in Development Settings you willl see the RSSI and Wifi Score (0-60) for your Wifi connection. But it varies all the time.
Hard one to crack.
Im unable to see the wifi6 band. using latest standard rom (no root). I have mange to see it after a reboot to safemode and back, when back to normal boot wifi6 disappear after a min or two,.. then can redo and same happens,
Any idea how to fix this? (no format)
First I would check your router.
Many top brand routers let you set up the 5G part (used by Wifi 6) in many different ways, from channel selection, bandwith, auto settings etc..
I suggest to fiddel around with these settings to see which is best. When you use DFS channels there can be interference by radar systems of nearby airfields or military installations so better not use that setting.
Think I have fidle around everywhere I can fidle. I have seen 6ghz just breefly sometimes. Updated firmware on phone, router. Chenge all settings in the router. Been in android safe mode. Only thing left is factory reset of phone. Was hoping to not need to do so. Btw Is an Asus axe16000 round
Update. Done factory reset on phone and router. Still no sign of 6ghz
In your Asus router settings page (never use the app), in the tab 'wireless' you see AX wifi 6 mode on enabled? Multiband Agile on off. Time to Wake on off too?
Little below (same tab) under 5Ghz you can select or deselect 160mhz to see if that happens.
There is also a Asus Merlin firmware which is generally considered a better version of the regular Asus firmware. I highly recommend. For your model:
Asuswrt-Merlin - Browse /GT-AXE16000/Beta at SourceForge.net
Alternative firmware for Asus wireless routers
sourceforge.net
Just get the Beta and get the stable 388.2 when it's available. It might help

Thanks, I have that router and running latest merlin.. Tryed the settings you mentioned. Still no joy.
Btw i tryed the xiaomi support. What a waste of time. Kinda hilarious. 🫨 Was "painful" to read. (so little knowledge)
Maybe you can test the phone on a friends home Wifi that supports Wifi 6 or maybe you did that already?
No one I know have, but I tested a app to map wifi called wardriving or something to log every wifi it can se when driving/walking around. Not descover any random either.. Consider unlock bootloader to check other roms if any. Since I do believe I have a firmware bug
On which version and region your 12 Pro is now running?
runnig V14.0.8.0.TLBEUXM 13.0 Europe
Xiaomi support is just to comply to certain laws I think. The conversations I've had myself were absolutely sad.
But, I would recommend Xiaomi.eu ROM if you're going for a custom ROM. Should not be needed for wifi 6 but it's the best free upgrade you can give your phone anyway.
Yea. Been thinking about installing it.
But you still did not test it on a different Wifi 6 ap.
Why is this so important?
Because the root of your problem could still very well be at your router at home and since you did not rule that out it is not wise to fiddle around with custom rom's when maybe your phone is not to blame.
