Hey im from UK and I used to be rooted before ics. I used to flash custom roms etc etc. Today I decided to update to ICS via pc companion. I love ics but my WiFi interferes with my computer!
How can I fix this? My WiFi was fine before the update. Cheers

If I try to connect, it takes ages to obtain ip address and when it does I dont get internet access. It shows the WiFi icon with the yellow warning icon

Before in GB was it working well and are you sure that there are no problems with the internet connection?
Try rebooting the device and see if it worked!

Did the reboot work?
I see many of them are complaining about the wifi bug in ICS.. Its a common problem i see.. Wait for Sony to fix the bug but it'll take decades.. A fix should arrive soon though.. I think the problem might be with the baseband!

I have the same problem. My Arc S connects to my router and everything works for some time. Suddenly, while surfing or facebooking, the information isn't loading any more even when the phone says its still connected. WiFi-Icon in statusbar is still active. Only way to reconnect is to turn WiFi off and on again.
I tried the WiFi-fix application for ICS which was mentioned in some threads on xda but it didn't help.
Stock ICS 4.0.4 firmware, baseband 72, stock kernel from ICS 4.0.4

Only for about a half hour, then the problem happens again.
Edit: Not a half hour, every 10 minutes or less.
Then it looks like some app or service is interfering with wifi.. Do you have any network related apps installed? (lik vpn or tethering apps or something lik that)

Are you using the 4.0.4 FR version? If so, try flashing another version of ICS like the Mobitel Slovenia version.
The wifi reportedly works better in this version.

No I'm using the Slovenian version.
I had the problem with official 4.0.3, leaked 4.0.4 and now official Slovenian 4.0.4.

I have this exact same mentioned problem on my galax s3 and 4.0.4.
Really would like a fix soon, glad its a common problem should get some more attention.
I'm on a belkin router and connect to the apple time capsule.
What I have found is the main network in my household is Home which is hidden, and has added security and this problem occurs. And then we have a second network that isn't hidden for guests and visitors, when I connect to it I havn't experienced the problem. So are the others with the problem connecting to a hidden network? Maybe ICS looses the hidden networks or something.
I had the same problem on my Neo V! I solved it by switching my WI-Fi router to b\g mode! and since that I don`t have any problems)))
P.s. Sorry for my bad english((
Has anyone on here have tethering problems with their Arc after ICS update? I cannot, for the life of me, connect either WIFI nor USB to the internet with my pc, ALSO S SONY!!! Does this mean a trip to repair? Any help would be appreciated. Sony support sucks, on top of being rude and unintelligent.

Got Wi-Fi to work, but keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. And I can't seem to adjust my APN's any more. Won't allow me to go into settings.

There is a topic on installing ICS 4.0.4 with a tethering fix. In my situation there was no issue after flashing and rooting. Maby re do the process....
Also questions are for the q &a section. This topic will prolly get locked..
Good luck..

Mine isn't rooted, but an unlocked Arc. After ICS update, phone acts up and freezes. Annoying.

If you shutdown and it restarts,wait for it to completely boot up,and then shutdown back....if keep restarting,clear all the necessary cache from cwm recovery

Xperia ion auto restart
Hello. My Xperia Ion is not rooted or flashed with custom rom or kernel or etc. But now it always restart itself when it is not plugged in using charger or USB cable. I wonder if there is problems with battery since it has build in battery so i could not figure it out by changing to new battery. Had anybody experience this? Thanks in advance! :good::good::good::good::good:

No problem. Maybe you should do some battery cycles test. Recharged when empty a battery should last longer. Maybe that will solve your problem.
I'd like to add that I updated my LT28a (locked bootloader) with the LT28h JB update (.211) then I rooted it using the Vietnamese Root Method. Everything was going good until this morning, I took it off the charger and it rebooted itself twice while above 90% charge. It reminds me of my Captivate that had the same issue. I'm testing it to see if it will happen again.

Flashing a ROM that's not 100% made for your phone model may be risky.
hi, i have flashed wrong firmware on my R800i. Flashing gets stuck when trying to reflash a right firmware...when i got recovery back, everything goes well. But, there is 1 problem detected..the bottom left corner of my screen becomes unresponsive to touch or difficult to respon. This problem was never happens before, and my phone has no falls during the period. Is error firmware can causes screen problem?
sorry for my bad english
Now sounds like your phone's software is fine but your hardware is going out

Yes. It can cause screen problem if you used the wrong firmware. Speaking from experience on xperia plays.
Thanks, the sound gives me a hope..so, what is your solution?
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
No. It is your digitiser spoilt. I had it on my play as well. Go to the repair store to fix or take it apart yourself if you want to fix it yourself.

You can flash older baseband, but will not solve your problem. I've tried that... Phone is working well, but the 2g bug is present with the older baseband too.

Well, I flashed eXistenz v2 JB custom ROM but the 2G issue is not resolved. Though it's not as worse as it was in the official Sony JB firmware, 2G still goes into dormant mode sometimes.
What's puzzling me is, 2G worked seamlessly on ICS and it still works that way when you roll back (yeah, I tested this); Bobber says baseband is not the issue, then what the heck is causing this?
Insights requested from anyone who can help. I am ready to experiment, in fact I am posting this after I did a lot of that.
P.S.: Bobber, please share how to flash ICS baseband on JB. I'll try that nevertheless.
