View 1 Repliesmy wi-fi connection unstable due to upgrade 1.6 to 2.1.
View 1 RepliesFor some reason my wifi connection is either very slow, or there isn't any connection. And when it does connect, it is REALLY slow, and then it drops.
I get really frustrated because on my other devices such as an asus notebook and a Samsung tablet it works like a charm.
I literally drop EVERY WiFi call after about 5-7 minutes. I get an error message "WiFi Signal Lost". I would normally just blame the WiFi network I'm on, but it does it on multiple totally different networks (home, work, Burger King, etc...). And I know for sure both home and work networks are very stable and fast. Not sure what the issue is. If I go and view the network details of the network I'm on, the signal strength is typically between -40 and -75 dBm. While in UMA mode, the phone will actually go out of UMA mode sometimes for no apparent reason, and won't go back into UMA mode until after a few minutes. The worst part is that the Home screen says I'm still connected to the WiFi network, but the top right corner doesn't say UMA! It says 3G! And YES, my Mobile Network Mode is set to "WiFi Preferred". Even if I set it to WiFi Only, the top of the Home screen says I'm connected to the WiFi network, but the top right corner says OFF and the phone just goes dead!!
I use this phone for work and it needs to be reliable. Is my above WiFi Calling experience normal?? If not, does anybody know anything I can try? Are there some apps that conflict the with operation of the phone portion at all? I'm back to using the default theme now and it's still doing it... Should I try doing a factory reset? Here are the apps I can think of that I have installed:
Dark GalaxyCrunchSMSBolt Browser w/BBLauncher PluginQuickPullGoogleMapsWeather ChannelTetris by Electronic Arts I've removed a bunch of the default apps, but all other apps on the phone are ones that it came with.Another thing I've been noticing... it will randomly lock up for a few seconds and be TOTALLY unresponsive. If I'm scrolling through a page, the pointer will all of a sudden stop and become completely unresponsive for a few seconds. Then resumes like nothing happened. And, if I'm typing a long text or email and it does this total-lock up, I'll look up from the keyboard and see that none of my keystrokes were being echo'd onto the screen while it was locked up. But then it starts working again like nothing happened. BUT The strange thing is that if I'm typing while it's locked up, it doesn't appear to a buffer any of my keystrokes! (as opposed to on my old BB 8330: sometimes when it got bogged down because I had too much stuff running in the background, the keystrokes being echo'ed to the screen would sometimes slow down and lag behind my typing.... but it always kept track of what I typed and would eventually catch up.) HOWEVER, when my 9780 completely locks up like I mentioned above, it doesn't seem to recognize that I typed anything while it was locked up. when it "snaps out of it" and comes back to life, none of the keystrokes I typed while it was locked up are echo'ed onto the screen. I'm wondering if it's during these complete lockups that I'm dropping calls?

Ever since the ICS upgrade my camera and video has been problematic. I upgraded to ICS as part of the advance feedback network group and reported this then, but it's still unstable.
Whenever I take pictures or video, if I do anything shortly (such as viewing the photo or exiting the camera) after it locks up the phone, and the phone reboots. I have done a factory reset, wiped the cache partition, my phone is not rooted, and the problem still persists. Is anyone else seeing this problem or have recommendations on a fix? This has made taking photos and video a rare task when I'd prefer to do it regularly, but I don't enjoy the phone restarting and losing the picture or video I took.
i have the ICS 4.0.3. i was listening to music when the phones battery completely discharged, put it on charging, and stopped the music, and the touch of the phone went bezerk. older discussion claimed it was a problem with the charger or the current input. but i just started playing music again when it was on charge, and touch is working fine.

The laptop recognises the phone and shows it as external harddrive in Windows explorer, but when I open the drive it does not respond. Then after a while it opens a new Windows explorer window with the phone's drive, but again I can not use it.
I've checked that I have the latest driver. And on my desktop PC with Windows 7 I have no problem.
I bought the Z2 for it's video camera capabilities I'm very surprised to find that there is no AE or AF lock on the Z2 for video. In video mode the camera is almost un-usable because the AF and the AE hunts around like crazy even in decent light. see [URL] .... Local Sony tech said that this maybe a faulty software design. I'm hoping the updated software supplied with the Xperia Z4 makes it's way to the Z2.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSince updating my D6503 to Lollipop 5.0.2 (Build 23.1.A.0.726) yesterday, I can't connect to my workplace's Wi-Fi anymore. I'm still able to connect to my home and public Wi-Fi networks.
My workplace network settings:
WPA2 EnterpriseEAP method: PEAPPhase 2 authentication: MSCHAPV2CA certificate: (Unspecified)DHCP server.I am able to connect to this network using my credentials on other devices - but my Xperia Z2 just refuses to establish a connection. I've tried "forgetting" the network, restarting the phone (including in safe mode). No success.

My Wifi is secured and before I give the password, it says the signal strength is Excellent. After that, it says Signal strength is Poor and tries to keep connecting.
After upgrading to Lollipo my Xperia Z2 is unable to sign into my corporate wifi network. It just shows as blank screen after I click on Sign into network from the notifications.

I use my C3-01 as a modem on my laptop. Since i updated the firmware to 7.15 the connection doesn't stay for more than 2-3 hrs. It disconnects automatically. Sometimes even after a min. Earlier i was able to connect for even 16 hrs at a stretch.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy 32gb LG G3 D855 just keeps on lowering the volume by itself. My touch feedback sound is on and just a notch away from full volume. However, the sound is unstable in that it just lowers itself. I keep checking the setting but the level is just the same and not changing.
For example, one series of tapping on the screen has the expected volume. After some time, the next series of tapping on the screen has their sound feedback dropped by itself to very low. It is fluctuating and unstable.
Just now, I turned everything to full volume and tested things out. To my surprise, even my notification and ringtone volumes are also unstable. They go very low to hear at one point, then get back to being loud again. All by themselves. It came to a point where my ringtone is at maximum level, then when I tested it (tapped at the adjuster), the sound was very low. Then after testing again, it goes back to the intended full volume.
In summary, the volume just drops down by itself, then gets back to the expected level, then drops down again. Very unstable.
My new iPad constantly loses connection to my cellular service provider (Vodacom ZA).
Each time the signal strength drops below 3G, the iPad does not automatically switch to 2G (Edge), instead the Internet access stalls, requiring me to switch off Celluar Data in the Seeing tab, the switching on again to re-establish the connection.
On receiving Apple iOS 5.1.1 update, point 2 in their splash screen acknowledges that this is this issue, but the problem still persists after installing the update.

I have the 9860, It goes off on a tangent, never keeps the wallpaper, had to delete battery indicator as it wouldn't charge. Now it doesn't like the screen lock I downloaded for fun, so it wouldn't connect to desktop for offload of pics etc.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhile I love the Hardware , Windows 8.1 and apps still make using the 1520 problematical, I've had it for about 9 months but will probably go back to IOS or Android when I hit my upgradability, about 4 times yesterday when I was at an event where I need to take pictures the phone using kept rebooting on me, it may have been the cold it was about 32 degrees, but it really makes it difficult to use the phone in meaningful ways when apps and the OS do not behave, and it's little things like the phone freezing, rebooting or becoming unstable that make it hard to stay with the 1520 no matter how much I love the HW.

And finally is that update worth installing?
