Like maybe 7 hours ago. Was upgrading my phones os. root and what not. so far i havent found anyone with this problem. perhaps its hardware?

If you went doing anything significantly didn't from any other occasions, it's probably the hardware . if the problem persists, visit the Sony store

GSM conection completly dead. On every ROM.

I dont wanna keep spamming Doomlords kernel Thread so i created a new one here.
The thing is that after flashing Doomkernel v11 (maybe the is not the reson) my gsm conection is completly broken. No calls, No SMS, No Data.
I tried flashing kernel v10, full wipe, flashing with flashtool fw .368, .42, .62.
Nothing of that changes anything.
please help me!
Have you overclocked your CPU?
Sent from my beautiful Xperia PLAY using xda premium
yes, but only up to 1.2 ghz but the new doomkernel wich maybe coused this has also gpu overclock. Could it be the reson?
Have you tried the repair tool in SE PC Companion (or is it SEUS?). I haven't used it since I had an x10 mini pro, but I remember it could solve all sorts of problems. Could be worth investigating

Hmm i have to lock my bootloader for that. Okay i will give it a try.
Tried it multiply times. Changed nothing.
First, don't worry! My friend had the same problems with radio in his Arc S...
This thing worked for him - It may sound stupid but turn off your phone, pull the battery and put your phone in some cool and safe place and don't use it for some time, a week or two.
At his case after about 12 days everything went back to normal and I don't f*cking know why
Cheers!

I will try that. But if it does not work its 12 days wasted time...
Hey Bro, feel bad for you
I remember it happened to me when I did something stupid with v10. And have no radio after that.
Don't know if this will work for you but what I did was flashed .42 first then it had signal and flashed .62 again and everything is okay now.
Have you tried flashing back to stock kernel?
Stock kernel is being flashed whenever you flash stock ROM.
Try writing to alejandrissimo, he had some fixes for broken radio.
Sent from my beautiful Xperia PLAY using xda premium
jep i contacet him, he said he can fix it but it coasts 24 dollar, i did not really understand why. But thats still much cheaper than if i send it to sony and they void my warrenty.... but i sended it to sony two month ago becouse of broken flexcable and that was completly free... hard decision...
This radio repair is paid because of setool credits that are needed to be used in order to repair your device using this software.
But you have warranty, 24$ is not much and if radio repair work for you, you will still have warranty in case of serious damage.
Cheers!

Have you tried other sim cards in the handset?
Sent from my Xperia Play using XDA App
He already did that, he said about that in DooMLoRD's thread about kernel.
Sent from my beautiful Xperia PLAY using xda premium
He tried his sim in another phone and it worked. I think he's sending it to Sony or getting the radio unbricked
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
Alejandrissimo really did it!! I paid him 20€, a bit more than he wanted and than he did it. Now it just works, i could not be happier.

[Q] Battery Issue, Never go below 100%

Alright, As the title says I'm having a battery issue. I just bought the phone used, unlocked it, Flashed CM 10.1, and ever since changing ROMs the battery hasn`t gone down below 100%. I've let the battery go flat, wipe Battery_stats.bin. Issue remains un resolved. I also tried to recalibrate using an app, still no improvement. Any ideas on how it can be fixed? Anyone out there having same/similar problems?
EDIT: Also, I`m rooted & have CWM installed.
let me get this straight
your battery is always full?
Try With Change Your Kernel. But Must Match with Recomendation ROM Kernel.

It is not a battery related problem. I have the same issue:
- tried different battery form another phone that works fine and gets drain quickly on my phone
- tried a brand new Sony battery that drains up on my phone and works well in another "known good" arc S
- if you take out the battery from the phone a put it back in after 5 hours the battery is still ok
- if you just turn off the phone - the battery will continue his depletion and will be fully discharged in 4 hours
- I opened the phone and took a thermal image of the board on an off and there is a hot spot around the Compass IC
- however Compass is working fine
- it still could be a SW issue that could have brought he phone to operate in a configuration that activates sections of HW with conflicting level of voltages causing a current path at low impedance dissipating a lot of energy
- I wanted to do a factory reset but did not manage to do it right now for lack of time - will do in the next couple of days and let you know
- another potential problem could be related to the Power Supply IC PM80xx which could be damaged and would need replacement

Not saying what your running right now.
Some people complain about stuck power buttons also which will make ir reboot a lot.

well am gona try this ...which rom are you currently running? am on liquid smooth 2.10 jelly bean and it just rebooted 10mins ago..
here is my phone's information...
Phone Reboots
I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 running the latest nightly of CM 10.2. I have been constantly updating the nightlies and several times I have factory reset (wiped the cache, delvik cache, the system, data, internal storage, and reformatted everything) my phone and it is still constantly rebooting. I cannot figure out what is causing it either.
i dont think its the roms because i've tried so many CM 1.3 STABLE , CM 10.2 amongst other roms and still getting the reboots..{Feeling frustrated}

I'm going to try a stable CM 10.1 and see if it reboots.
Couldn't flash a stable version of 10.1. I wiped the cache, system, and delvik cache, then flashed the rom, but it wouldn't boot. It just stayed on the Cyanogenmod boot up screen.
Its the same thing, i've tried the stable version(CM 1.3) already and it's the same thing...
And if your stuck on cm boot screen simply reboot back to recovery mode and wipe cache and reboot system and it shud boot up normally...
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Well let me know if you figure anything out. It's getting really annoying. I don't know if it's a Cyanogenmod thing or what. I'm really happy with CM when it works and it's been great for me on other devices in the past.

Heard this problem. Don't use Facebook. Tried uninstalling Chrome--didn't solve the problem.
Facebook is the one app i use the most.. Have you tried it before and did it work?

I had the power button issue and sent it into Samsung to be fixed 2 weeks ago. I have had the phone since July 2012 and it was still under warranty. Try lightly wiping your hand across the button and if the phone reacts that's the problem or if it reboots a lot when you are using the button often. Taking the case off seemed to help a little. It was a free repair and they had it back in 6 business days.

Did you unroot your phone?

New firmware (10.5.A.0.233) certified for Xperia ZL

"Sony will shortly push out firmware build 10.5.A.0.233 to the older Xperia Z series including the Xperia Z, Xperia ZL, Xperia ZR and Xperia Tablet Z. This new build follows on from the first Android 4.4.2 KitKat release (10.5.A.0.230) for these models and is likely to be a bug-fix release.
We already saw Sony’s workaround on the battery drain issues this morning, but hopefully the new update will go further to provide a more stable KitKat experience. We’ll let you know once the update starts to roll."

good news and waiting~
Oh man, hope this arrives soon in Brazil.
Can't stand this laggy phone anymore. I'm almost throwing it out the window..
And hopping this fix fixes ALL the bugs!!!
