Having problems updating my phone - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I go to settings on my r800at and about phone to update it I get this message "only mobile networks available for software update." Why is this happening? I have not rooted the phone so it is still the way it was when I bought it so that can't be the issue.

You have to turn wifi off and make sure your mobile connection is enabled. (3G)

[Q] Please Help, only Edge data working!!!Can anyone help me?

Bought my phone form Rogers. LTE was working fine.
Was going to USA and paid an online company to send me unlock code.
Used it and went using Tmobile which only has EDGE data.
Just got back swapped back in my SIM From fRogers and can only get EDGE speeds.
Tried reboots rmoving SIM card.
Also made sure settigns were correct for Rogers APNs and also that toggle was on for GPS/HSPA/LTE.
To no avail.
Briefly, I toggled on and off the apn setting from ROgers LTE to tethering LTE and low and behold it seemed to work.
But now it is back to stuck on EDGE and nothibg I am doing can help.
Can this be a byproduct of the unlock?
Is my LTE faulty?
I s there some hidden menu where perhaps a setting can be changed for a fix?
I am depserate as the alternative is to return the phone and they are on backorder everywhere now.
have you gone into settings> more settings> mobile newtorks>and taken a look at your access point names and your network mode?
yes
I even confirmed with Rogers and settings are correct
Are there any service mode type ways to switch on/off data? Maybe I inadvertently did something
What area you in now and was before.
Did you tried different locations like out of your house,work, out of city.

Try setting it to WCDMA only, and then use the network operators button to search for networks

Will try this again. though not sure of that option.
for me under network mode it gives me choice of GSM
HSPa
BOth with auto connect
or those two with LTE auto connect.
Right now if I try to select HSPA only ct it does't change and reverts to GSM/HSPA/LTE (auto). Seems it will only accept a choice that allows it to default back to Edge (GSM)
Anyone know if there are some deeper settings to

If I change the sim and put it in my old s2 I get 3g speeds right away so I should at least be getting that and I know form the day I got it that LTE was working well in my home.
it depends on what they flashed maybe they flashed a different antenna because the freq's of the tmo version are diff than the rogers version
Wasn't a flash. It was an unlock code for Rogers entered at the invalid SIM screen. They were not told which network I would be using it

Try resetting factory settings again, and flash this Rogers modem.

Can I flash the modem if I am not rooted.

Does flashing the modem show evidence of such?
I.e if this attempt at a fix fails my recourse is to return the phone as defective. Don't want there to be any evidence of tampering that could void my warranty
You can flash modem.without rooted.
Zip.file.modem.through cwm or .tar modem file through Odin.
And if you are under 14 days of purchase, reset your phone to get your log minutes under 30.
But I guess you.won't need to do.that, flashing.modem and reset should work.

Well did factory reset before risking modem flash.
Low and behold while i had to reinstall and setup everything again, LTE is now working again.
Not sure what happened. Will ultimately root at least to back things up.

Mobile networks not working

I have a rooted, s-off Verizon htc one m8 that has its noble networks very messed up. I often go into Pimp My Rom to access the phones hidden settings and force 4G when my 3G is too slow. But for some reason about half of the network options immediately switch to a different option. When LTE is selected and I try to switch to EvDo it flashes EvDo for a fraction of a second and then switches to LTE. When auto it on (which includes EvDo) it never switches to 3G. I fear I will never be able to use 3G which is the only service available at my house. I was also playing around with the three radio bands, another setting in that menu. Nothing seemed to change and I don't even know what those are.
On a side note, is there any way to check the status of htc security (s-on/off)?

Boot into bootloader, and it will say either s-on or s-off in one of the top few lines.
What ROM? If a custom ROM, you sure its one that supports Verizon?
Its stock

A factory reset did the trick.

Try the following:
1) power off device, remove sim, then turn it back on leave it for about 5min, power off, re insert sim then power it back on.
2) Call VZ tech support and see if they can swap out with another phone, just tell them you phone randomly drop signal, they will attempt to re provision your device or ask you to do factory reset and if still not working, tech support (not customer service) could over night another brand new phone to you no charge. Good luck!
Thanks , got a new phone.

Both my wife and my white note 4's appear to have signal issues. I think the crappy signal and drop calls is only happening at home (west bend, wi). I have never had this problem with US cellular and because both our phones are having this problem, I wont to believe its not the phones (or maybe it is?).
Is there a number to update the towers for Verizon? How should I go about this?

Have you tried toggling the airplane mode or data switch? If that doesn't work, try putting it in airplane mode, reboot the phone, taking out of airplane mode. You should only have to do that once.
If that all fails, try the "killall rild" command trick. One of those is bound to work. I'll bet your texts are being sent by wifi if your data's not working.
Tried toggle airplane mode and data button.nothing.i can recieve and send texts with wifi off.just no data connection only signal cluster bars with an exclamation mark.in about phone menu says i am on rogers network but no data for internet use or reading emails or play store.really sucks.I even flashed back to stock and then flashed candy rom hopping it would of set something that caused this but when candy booted up the first thing i saw was that damn exclimation mark instead of the LTE.****
