I got my ZL yesterday applied the international firmware with flashtool everything was working fine, but then i noticed that wifi disconnects randomly all the time. Today when I went to work I tried to test the Mobile connection but it also just shows the "E" "3G" "H,H+" sign like 6 seconds then goes blank and i have no mobile data, could this be a firmware related issue or a hardware one?

For the mobile data, i think it is how the mobile data work, when there is no use of data (downloading, syncing) the sign will disappear to save power consumption. When u need the data it will show the sign back.
For the wifi, sony OS for ZL sometime suffer this low connectivity range. You can try to repair using PC Companion if you want. Before this i'm using Incredible S and suffer wifi connectivity loss frequently, i can't finish any download but when connected to other wifi it has no problem, the solution is to change ur wifi modem channel, then the problem solved.
For sony there is solution by altering your build.prop (in Z forum, i forgot the thread) but some user said that it will drain ur battery quickly. I never test it.

hi people
i'm noticing a problem with my data/edge/3g connection.
it simply stops working at times .. it just shows data being sent but no data received and my internet doesnt work.
This becomes fine after a reboot but again has a problem after a few hours
Is anyone else facing this problem too with Data connectivity ?
Yes, same problem with my german arc.
I am not facing any problem with data connectivity
same problems here, I found that stopping the WIFI and re enabling it is enough to get it back on track but its still a serious issue.
I don't like finding out I am missing e-mails an hour too late.
I only found it happens when I switch from 2G to 3G with data on.
So my work around is to turn data off first before switching between 2G <-> 3G. After that, turn back the data on.
This only happens to me on WIFI, on 3g everything is fine.
I am thinking about flashing the UK build to see if it helps.
I used to have the same problem with my x10. Data just stopped working randomly. I used to have a widget to turn 3g on/off and when the data stopped working, so did the widget. Was strange, and only a reboot solved it.
I have wifi problems,it sleeps after a while,no sleep is selectet.

same here. wifi works fine. til awhile later (evactly how long i didn't notice. will keep track)
After which no matter how i turn off & on wifi, forget the network & re-enter p/w. even off & on my phone. wifi status "connecting.... disconnected....connecting.... disconnected." will drains off a lot of battery if go unnotice.
i found a cumbersome work around... off the arc wifi & reboot modem/router. then can "obtaining ip address". but thing is, all other devices works fine.
so is it arc's fault? since all others can connect to wifi except arc
or
router's fault? i wasn't doing / changing setting on the arc. just reboot router. but wouldn't it be silly to do this everytime i use wifi on the arc?
so still no fix? sometimes it happens to me a few times during an hour...
Guys maybe this will help you out..
Go to wifi settings, press menu button->select advanced->under wifi sleep policy, set as never sleep
If not set the wifi shuts down to save battery.
And wifi is given more priority over 3g or 2g connectivity, so if you have wifi on you may not have proper connectivity to 2g or 3g
Turn on/off airplane mode, if you can't get a data connection. In a german forum some guys discussed about issues with multi-sim-cards, but I guess it is software related.

i changed my number and sim a couple of days back. with the same provider. my arc after being out of signal cant reconnect to the data network. the phone calls work fine. but the data is giving me problems. im still confused as to why this is happening. whenever i activate and deactivate the airplane mode, data connection comes back alive. could it be a problem with my sim or the phone radio?
edit: oh and i also reflashed my phone via sony ericsson update service, the problems still there.

Same problem here. This is really frustrating.
I dialed *#*#4636#*#* then phone info and pressed menu. Then I selected enable data connection (was disabled previously). The data didnt enable then. I went to settings>mobile network and enabled data from there too. Ever since, no disconnections. I dont know if this procedure or the fact that I tried to seat my sim properly worked, but u may try either. Let me know if this works....
Edit2: the above doesnt work.

I inserted my old fat sim and recreated the situation, the data automatically reconnected. The newer sim that's a microsim is causing the problem.

I've got a strange problem that I cannot solve or find anyone else that has had the same problem.
I recently updated to Minco V4 and since my status bar has been showing no signal and mobile standby shows 100% without signal yet I have mobile data. I cannot make any phone calls but can browse the internet. No amount of rebooting, airplane mode on/off will work. I've also gone back to both stock ICS and JB where the problem still exists.
My network is T-Mobile and it won't let me manually connect to it but the phone will occasionally register when I select automatic although it doesn't correct the fault. Anyone have any ideas what has gone wrong with my phone?
UPDATE: It seems I can only get a phone signal when select 2g T-mobile network only or connecting to T-Mobile orange. If I untick 2g networks and it connects to t-mobile 3g I can't receive or make calls.
Does your Radio and baseband match?
I installed the linked radio from the MiNCO thread after flashing the rom and discovering this issue yet it made no difference.
I got a phone signal momentarily about 15 mins ago which allowed me to make a short phone call to test it. I then accepted the JB system update from Google and now have no phone signal, just data.
Hello,
Often the wifi does not work. the telephone connects to the network but does not transfer data
The wifi signal is always present. Very often fails to communicate with the router does not transfer data in and out
The same problem was present in the previous version of the Phoenix Rom
I think the problem is not the Phoenix Rom
I reinstalled the bootloader MJ5, but the problems continue.
I'm afraid it's a hardware problem
Should I change my phone?

This problem has appeared 1 month ago. I've also updated the ROM, but the problem persists.
The wifi symbol is present. If I try to browse, or other applications that need internet connection, do not work.
It does not happen always, but often
The problem occurs in various ways
For example, while I'm browsing
Or while I'm using Facebook
Or for example if it is in standby, I realize that I do not get notifications or email
Maybe the problem is hardware?
Maybe I'm wrong, but now it seems that the problem occurs only with the wifi connection at home.
But at home I changed 2 modems in the last 10 days
The wifi connection of the PC always works well with both modems

try clear cache on recovery.
what was the thing you did 1 month ago that break your wifi? Maybe an app installed or something else?
i have tried the third router and now connection stability working good
One thing I have noticed recently is that when my phone is connected to wifi and then disconnects (because I leave my house, for instance), the phone will switch to mobile data, but the data will not work, ie I don't see any data going up or down. This will be even when it clearly shows 4G on the phone and shows full bars.
Turning the mobile data off and on in the quick settings seems to then restore data connectivity, but it's very irritating to pull out my phone in the car and try to pull up Google Maps to no avail.
Anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a permanent fix for it?

Hello.
From shortly after I got the phone, in the signal strength icon, I get an x. I can navigate, the wahtsapp works without problems, but I can not download applications from google play. If I restart, there are times when the x disappears and I can download without problems, but after a while it appears again.
With the wifi, at first it worked without problems, but now, it connects but there is no internet.
Any idea why that might be?
Thanks

A. Probably your ISP / router configuration. Check them. In PHL, sometimes our ISP will have problems with internet without acknowledging customers about their problems.
B. Your phone is far away from the router (it will randomly connect briefly and disconnect in long periods if I'm like 8-10m away from the router).
C. Try resetting network from Settings (see pic)

Hmm, I guess it's the weakness and having that behavior of connecting WiFi with SD 625, especially our device (daisy_sprout). I've read somewhere on XDA, 4PDA (Russian site) and Mi Forums that after updating it to Android Pie, the WiFi connectivity is not stable, especially when Bluetooth audio turned on.
Hello.
I updated the software from the updates I came in at google play, and for one day I was able to use the wifi without problems, but the next day I did the same thing again.
Looking at the connection, I saw that the mac changes it. In the connection, instead of appearing the mobile mac, I appear another. It doesn't always do that. Now the wifi connects, but there is no internet.
Greetings
Hello.
I figured out why I had the problem. I have an application with which I define which programs can connect to the Internet, and which not, and I did not have an android option activated, which was the one that allowed to connect to the wifi without problems.
Greetings
