Wifi will not stay connected.... - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Until 2 or 3 days ago my phones wifi connection kept dropping every ten seconds. Connect, disconnect, connect, so fortth. First I thought it was my wireless at home but then it was doing it at my office, went to a friends house same. I have tried reflashing the doomkernel wifi drivers and still same. Anyone have any ideas why? I am on 2.3.3 r800x rooted with doomkernel. I have exhausted all my ideas and hoping that someone may have one I have not thought of. Oh and I have not made any changea to my phone this week.. it just literally would not hold a connection. And I am running stock rom which I reflashed about 3 weeks ago. But again everything worked great until 2 or 3 days ago.

Sometimes its the simplest things, but make sure your SIM is in the right way or just reinsert it. Make sure data is enabled and you have an APN

You should probably exchange it if you within the warranty period. It might be defective

Had this happen to me not too long ago. Tried everything. Ended up having to do a warranty exchange. The phone lost signal one day while I was using it and it never got it back. I had the phone in this state for almost 2 weeks while I used a back up phone and it never got signal back so I sent it off. Now my new phone has a defective microphone.

Does it just not turn on at all? Sounds like your Bluetooth is not functional if it doesn't even work in stock ota

If you have tried nine separate phones and none of them have Bluetooth working you have to be doing something wrong our have EXTREMELY bad luck

I doubt its bad luck nine dif phone I'm doing something wrong I'm sure but wat cause I even went back to completely stock no root or anything took the ota same thing no bluetooth
Edit: I should also add that I'm new to samsungs and odin/mobile odin etc. I've dealt mostly with htc
Edit: i got 2 more first one i update to ics ota no bluetooth 2nd one i got was already ics with working bluetooth i downgraded to el29 then did the same process as all the other phones but this one works????
Edit: ok so the one phone I got that was already on ics Bluetooth works but its white my personal phone is black I wanted to keep it black but have Bluetooth working so I swap motherboards but then Bluetooth didnt work once it was in the black housing nor did the white one anymore I restored them both to el29 then upgraded back to ics now Bluetooth works on the white phone again with the motherboard from my black phone but still dont work on my black phone even though the mother board in my black phone worked in the white housing, I then realized if I put the motherboard from any of the other phones ive tried in that white housing Bluetooth will work. Is it the antenna? If so y would i have so many with bad antennas plus they all work on gb

Did you restore anything with Titanium Backup from a phone that had a different resolution or different family of CPU?
I've had mine for 3 weeks, 1 week unrooted and 2 weeks rooted with no reboots. I would take it back! When you pay $300 for a piece of hardware, it should work properly.

I've had this happen 2-3 times, but it's always happened while using chrome. Anyway, it reboots SO fast that I could really care less lol

Stock root, no random reboots.
Im bone stock and I think mine had something to do with Tapatalk updating while I was using it.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
had it since release.. no reboots...stock for one week, rooted and jellybombed now
I had CWM and installed a few roms. It never wiped the data correctly so I ended up getting reboots all day long. Installed TWRP and did a full factory reset then installed my ROM of choice. No reboots so far (been 24 hours).
Good luck
I got the phone two days ago and I've had no reboots on the phone day I got it. Today the phone reboots randomly. It's happened at least five times already. I've tried a factory reset via twrp and it still didn't help.
I'm rooted and on stock LJC. No overclock or underclock.
Haven't had a random reboot either. :thumbup:

Haven't had a reboot since I got it. Rooted and Jellybomb since day 1 too.
I'm stock non-rooted and have had 2 reboots as well.
Stock and never had a single reboot since launch day.

No data in WiFi Arc S

My friend's Arc S connects to WiFi/hotspot but there is no data connection. The WiFi/hotspot is good as we have another device using the same connection without any problem. It just started doing this suddenly today. Phone is completely stock and has been factory resetted a few days ago by us as we plan to give the phone to someone. After reset we connected to WiFi and install a few communication apps (Skype, viper, etc). Everything was good until today but we haven't changed a thing.
So far we tried restarting without success.
Any ideas?

Try that then, unless the new owner only wants a WiFi only Phone.

Mods please consider the matter solved/close!!
The wifi started working again. Don't know what happen but after a couple of restarts it just started having a flood of emails, meaning the data is on again.
Thanks for any help.

Im no pro, but if it's dropping and coming back in a couple hours I would say it's a network problem. Usually maintenance or an upgrade (maybe you'll be seeing lte soon

I thought that also, but my wife has gs3 on tmobile and she had service at the time of my dropped service.. maybe a bad download of modem? I will re download and flash again.

Started happening to me on cm10 recently.. What I do is toggle cdma/gsm/lte to something else then back to whatever it was on.. Sometimes that alone does the trick.. Other times I have to do that And reboot

this worked for me. I had the same issue. I would have service for about 3 mins then nothing for 20min. I tried everything. The text in red is what you should do. YOU WILL LOOSE ALL DATA. SAVE TO EXT-SDCARD IF YOU WANT TO SAVE ANYTHING.

Could be. I have not updated them yet. I will see if it causes the issue again
dropped data
i've also been having problems w/ dropped data. on the stock roms i don't have any problems but i prefer the aosp roms and it seems like everytime i've used a variant of an aosp rom, i would lose data intermittently. it's very frustrating b/c i really want to get away from a touchwiz based rom.
I've been having this issue for months now across multiple roms, both CM & TW. It just randomly drops the data connection for a few minutes & then it comes right back. It's so weird, I've had the same radio since June & it just started doing this in late July. I can only assume that Tmo is doing a lot of network upgrades or something.

I had the same problem when the upgrade that added LTE for T-Mobile came out. I went by the T-Mobile store and the guy said they were aware of the issue, but didn't exactly what was causing it, but something with the LTE. He said he has the same phone with a different brand of SIM card. He replaced my SIM with one of those and I have had no problems with losing connection since.

Ah, good to know. Maybe I'll stop by the T-Mobile store after work today & see if I can get them to replace my sim.
