This is a problem with every device that needs to speak with an master cell tower, if anything are between you and the cell tower, you will get decreased call and signal quality.
You can improve this by flashing different basebands and se which one gives you the best signal reception..
For Gingerbread: Baseband 36 with libs
For ICS: Baseband 72 or 77 with corresponding libs.

It's a signal reception problem that can be fixed with flashing different basebands and see which one that works best for YOU!
Remember that the basebands are the driver that makes it possible to get any signal reception.
Which Android version are you on?

Before doing any flash, mod or something.
Go to settings, mobile network, networktype, choose GSM ONLY.
Try this for a while. Should help. Gives slow data rate and a little slower dialup, sms sending time

[Q] Latest STock firmware for xperia PLAY??

I am currently on 2.3.4.......4.0.2.A.0.42 build...Can anyone pls tell me which one is the latest firmware on xperia play as my pc companion says my phone is up to date...but what are the .58 and .62 updates???Also about the .368 updates too...whats the main difference?
I would also like to know
Depends what region you are in.
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
.62 is the latest.
The .69 firmware is technically newer but it's the same build, with a small change made because of a licensing issue in Germany.

I have .42 too because my phone came with that. Should I install .62? On another thread someone said that it has some fixes and optimizations... If it's better I want to install it

I am using beta 4.0.3 from SE DEV website. Some XDA member (doomlord) also added some fixes and add-on. Camera works. Navigation works but sometimes reboots phone in the middle of operation. Facelock restricted. Do not have any complaints. Love ICS UI, very simplified. Remember still beta.

because 1 of my friend can confirm that this is happening almost everything when hes not on wifi..
yeah, same issue for me
not quite sure ... but i think i had this issue on stock rom ... i'm gonna do some test late tonight and tomorrow and give feedback !
I called videotron 3 time and 1 of them finally found a ticket for this for investigation.
Also th eproblem doesnt happen when Using CM10.... so its firmware/ os bug
I'm on stock
Do you get sometime a "gateway timeout" message when surfing on the web ? (on 4G)
I'm a bit pissed about that
Yes i did it happens to me on wifi alot !! So annoying..

oh mine on Wifi is perfect . its really is just when using the 3g/4g network.
Anyway like I said earlier It is a firmware bug becasue the issue is not present with CM10.

I'm on exajoule and after some testing, I didn't get any connections error. So like state above.... Probably a os bug.

Maybe you could try to go in recovery and fix permissions? Don't know If that could help.... Won't hurt definitively.
Are you running the latest play store build?

To my knowledge you do have a problem and I don't. Same phone same carrier..... If you're not willing to try to fix your problem yourself and put the blame on vdt or the hardware.... Good luck my friend.
I was just trying to help you.... But quite frankly.... You know better than me....

Probably no LTE, but where I am I get faster speeds through WIFI. Which sucks since I have unlimited data and not enough speed to enjoy it.

You should be able to flash the I or AT radios with out a issue. We initially flashed the AT GB radio to the H ICS so I would think it still works.

WiFi is always faster than LTE right now. I mean 802.11n does around 150mbps, and if you have cable that's probably more than 50mbps.. 1 gbps if you're on fiber . Anyway, I don't think ever goes over 30mbps at the moment, so it makes sense that WiFi is faster.

Doesn't say anything about a delay just that the ion FW is to follow the S and those other devices which was always the case.
Yea the Ion is not delayed but more seems like they are waiting as to not overload the servers. The S and SL are older and I would think allot more where sold than the Ion so makes sense to roll it first. I would expect to see the Ion update go live on Monday but hey maybe sooner who knows. But we do know its finally happening so yeah for that.

Modem update

I just updated to the latest modem firmware available for my phone and, maybe it's just me, I get way better signal at my home! I normally wasn't getting more than 2bars (if I had signal), and now I can reach 3 bars!
I just recently found out about modem.. shouldn't it be more visible?
