WiFi Issue in Certain Countries - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hello
I'm new here so they wouldn't allow me to post on the Dev section, anyways, I bought my Xperia S with Android GB in it and it has been with me for a while so i keep updating it. I installed the last software Sony has (JB .96) before i started flashing custom ROMs, however, i noticed that the WiFI stopped working in all the JB versions (.200, .211, .96) and when i did some research i found that Sony has activated its restriction program on some countries these are Sudan, Iran and Syria, as far as i know. me, i'm from Sudan, i figured that the the device shuts down the wifi ONLY when it detects the SIM card, as when i try to remove the SIM of turn on AirPlane mode (then restart the Device to start on AirPlane mode) the wifi works just fine.
when the wifi is locked, i can still turn it on, but the device starts to get very slow and it keeps searching for networks forever, and when i turn it of it take a loooong time to do so. installing custom ROMs did not fix this problem as most of the ROMs are based on the JB builds. i tried other solutions like trying to change the country code and so, but still, no luck. i might have tried lots of things here but frankly i'm not a developer, but i succeed to flash ROMs and Kernels by following your instruction, which u do very well on it .
I though that you guys did not encounter this issue before because you are not is a in a country that is under "US sanction" , but i'm sure you would have fixed this problem if you have heard of it
sorry for the loooong post hehe.
just one last thing, I LOOOOOVE what you guys are doing and i really do appreciate it, i WANT to donate but, there we (guys from Sudan)
can't create a PayPal account or so, again "US sanction".

Can,t u just flash for example PureSlim KitKat rom? Im using it now, it's working 100% fine and much faster than JB or any modded JB. Im 100% there will not be any wifi restrictions here.

I'm using this ROM daily too, and I can tell you just this: if you have read the whole thread in the Development section then you would know that those are the current issues that vijendrahs tries to solve, besides that he even posted that he has fixed those issues within the new updated version of this ROM, but he won't post/upload the new ROM before the "kanging issues resolve" - whatever that means.
I'm still new to the Android world, and I have my Desire for like 4months now, but his is the best JB ROM so far and I rreally appreciate his work, I would even donate some money if I could ( we have some problems with paypal in my country - still waiting for them to fix those ), but I just can't understand why someone would steal or repost the same ROM on another forum and say that it is his work/ROM ??? everybody knows that vijendrahs is the main developer for the 3 ROM's, and those are the MIUI JB ROM, the CM 10 JB ROM, and the AOKP JB ROM, so please stop those childish things...
I even considering to go into development myself, still haven't found the right amount of time for that, but as soon as I can - I will give it a shoot
If someone has some info what I have to know, or where to start, please let me know - thanks in advance
PS: vijendrahs you are amazing, keep Up the good work man your the best :good:

[Q] [LUPUS Kernel] [Ice Cream Speed] GPS not working

Hello XDA Developers,
i recently flashed a new kernel and installed a new rom on my xperia play as i wasn't happy with the performance of cm9.
Also i hoped to fix my problem that my compass is going haywire in Google Maps.
The speed of the rom is really great, but unfortunally the problem stayed.
Before you mention it, yes of course i have used Google to find answers to this topic. But nothing seems to work for me.
There are a ton of GPS apps that try to address this problem, but none did for me. No app was able to find any GPS signal even after several minutes of waiting.
Is there anything i can flash to eleminate this problem? Is there some specific prozedure to fix this with the help of the gps fix apps in the store? Do i have to wander around outdoors for 10 minutes to make it work or something like that?
Any help on this topic is appreciated.
Best Regards
*push* No one? Any hint is welcome.

I have no idea why gps wouldn't work, but you could try by flashing stock firmware with flashtool and see is it working.
If it's not working even on stock firmware, maybe it's hardware fault.
Make backup before you flash stock, so you could restore it later

NFC does not initiate after returning from Cyanogenmod to Stock

good night
a time ago, for curiosity I wanted to prove a rom kitkat of Cyanogenmod 11... good, only I her used approximately 2 weeks since the truth did not convince me,
so I decided to return to the firmware of Telcel (mexico) on having installed to him the firmware ... the Wifi did not work already, it was not activated, so I tried to put another firmware of mexico, and I mark myself a strange error, whole, end up by putting the emergency recovery that KIES has
and there I was put by a firmware that is
version of Baseband I9195LUBUAMF3 and compilation
JDQ39. I9195LUBUBNC2
but from there ... the NFC did not work already ... the active thing, and it is deactivated only to 3 seconds,
later the speaker trumped me, send the team to guarantee, and in technical service they always iron the most recent firm, and it continues without raising the NFC
will it be any problem in hardware, or in the change of rom and firmware??
greetings and thank you very much
hello, good day....
to do tests,install Cyanogenmod 11 again, only to see that there the NFC works
and in this custom rom, if it works correctly, the question is, because in that of stock it does not work:S
there is already a thread about the not working nfc issue and a solution to fix this. look into it

[CM12.1] Wifi Trouble On Cm12.1 Nightlies

Hi all,
I have had used CM on my z1c since August 2014 and did updates with nightlies quite regularly without any issues. But last Friday, after I updated from
cm-12.1-20150925-NIGHTLY-amami to
cm-12.1-20151002-NIGHTLY-amami
my wifi problems started. Whenever it reconnects to the wifi I see the exclamation point next to the icon, then it disconnects again. It also shows the exclamation point next to the mobile reception icon. But I seem to have mobile data connection via the mobile phone provider. However, wifi is broken, resolving domain names doesn't seem to work.
I cannot downgrade to the last working version either because whenever I try to do that using Cyanogenmod recovery, the phone is stuck in the boot animation for hours so I had to give up.
In addition, I cannot activate bluetooth anymore. Whenever I switch it on, it switches itself off after a few seconds.
Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be and how to fix/debug/investigate this any further? Where do I start looking? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
BTW: forgot to mention: I'm on cm-12.1-20151004-NIGHTLY-amami now but problem remains the same.

You didn't happen to flash M5 kernel, did you? I've read that it breaks WiFi on latest night lies. Besides that, I've read about various people having troubles with WiFi and BT on some CM Roms, but I haven't experienced it myself. Look through the CM 12.1 thread in 'original development' forum for fixes, etc.
I can confirm that all nightlies from cm-12.1-20150929-NIGHTLY-amami.zip to cm-12.1-20151004-NIGHTLY-amami.zip have issues with wifi and bt.
Currently it is not possible to get an older version than 20150929 from CM servers.
Does anyone have a link to cm-12.1-20150925-NIGHTLY-amami.zip ?

Thanks for the hint. Will search for more info in the forum. :good:
However, how would I know if I flashed a M5 kernel? I definitely wasn't aware of flashing it. My current kernel version is 3.4.0-cm-g1e19761

I still have the package for cm-12.1-20150925-NIGHTLY-amami.zip on my phone. But can't downgrade to it because after flashing it, my z1c is stuck in the boot animation. I have waited at least 3 hours before I gave up and reflashed the newer version.
EDIT - sorry, link's dead. I should've checked it first. I would also be interested in trying an older build.
Does this help?

Did anyone test cm-12.1-20151008-NIGHTLY-amami.zip ?
Changelog says that wifi and bt problems have been fixed.

Giulio Cervera added a comment - Yesterday 4:28 AM
this was 2 issue:
1) the channel bonding
2) taimport was running with wrong timing, and BT and wifi mac address was not exported in /data/etc
fix for both is merged

Just installed 20151008, I had been having major issues with wifi EAP previously (think i was on a MAY2015 build), this build's looking a lot better. The app launcher is alphabetized, and toast notifications have an icon from the app that generated them. I haven't tried bluetooth yet - my previous build was very bad with BT, I'm hoping this one's better.
Running 20151010 for over 6hrs now ...
wifi and bt are running stable and it looks like the issues have been resolved

So far, I'm only seeing AudioFX (equaliser) issues (which are a known bug). I haven't tested Bluetooth, but there have been issues with previous builds. Just take a full backup and then try it out.

I'm using TWRP for my recovery. I believe you'll need to get an unlock code from the sony website for your phone before you can start rooting/flashing.

Mi A2 lite keeps losing signal

Hi guys. I need your help
I bought this phone a year ago. It works fine at first, but then I'm not sure since when, the phone keeps losing signal and says "No service".
Network is up again when I restart the phone, but if I leave it for a while, it loses the signal and nobody can call me.
Is there anyway to solve this problem?

which version are you using, if it is A10 i have to say that is a bug not solved by the lazy xiaomi's devs
Best solution is to change to custom rom or return to android pie or oreo

Anyway, it's the bugged version it seems, so I guess I'm gonna downgrade it. Do you know where can I download the rom?
I found this site (xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/miui/daisy/) but it's Miui rom, not the android one version
