hello everybody , i bought 2 second hand lu6200 phones here in vietnam but their wifi signal handling is awful , i can connect to wifi networks with an old phone and the
lu6200 just doesn't pick up the network, i installed an app to measure the db's and in the lu6200 it gets always at least more 6 to 10 db's ,
first i thought that it was something wrong with the hardware but i switched phones in the store and have the same problem .-( ,
now i just don't know what to do , it's weird that a phone like this one has such a bad wifi .... , i have tested a lot of roms also and
wifi always hard to connect with weak signals.... anyone knows something about this?????
thanks.

I don't think that this phone has bad wifi strength as I have always the same signal strength as that on my friends' Note 1 and BB Z10 or other devices.

thank you for your input , well i find it weird that it's so hard for me to get a connection , i woudn't expect it from a device such as this... ,
i went to the store and they exchanged it to another one and the wifi still not working properly, but still they are second hand phones .... , maybe this one has some hardware problem too , it picks up wifi only after it stays some time in the same location .... , i got it for 100 dollars so it's not a big loss ,
maybe i will open it and try to check the wifi antenna or something .

If its picking up signal late, then its due to to long wifi scan interval. Just go to settings>network>wifi and refresh from there whenever you want to connect.

yes , i tried that , i installed some apk that would scan it faster and makes a graph of the router signal but always the same result , if i don't move too much and wait for a while it will connect but the signal is going up and down and it disconnects , and connect a few moments later ,
while my other phone stays around 80 something db's , this one shows 90 something that is on the limit for the connection

So WIFI works well, so I think there's a problem with your router.
Yeah seems so, but i cant figure out what can it be, could it be the channel the router is broadcasting in?

Great that you solved your problem
Could be as simple as other internet wi-fi users around you are using channel 11, you get problems if lots of people on the same channel
You could check this with wififofum
Not that really matters now since you tweaked.
Thanks but i will try that since i noticed that while working on channels 4-6 the range decreased.i will test to see.Thank You all for your help.
I no that i am not the only person who has this issue and it is driving me up the wall. for some reason when i loose signal alltogether it wont auto recontect when i come into signal again instead i have to force it to reconect.
At first i put up with this becasue i loved the phone and i thought that three would be doing somthing about it to fix the problem. but as i have recieved no fix i am getting more and more tiered with the phone and im swaying more and more towards the S3.
The only way that i can hold a signal is if i set it so that i am on 3g only which helps but suks becasue there are alot of ares which dont have the 3g signal.
i have also noticed that the phone looses signal when i put it in my pocket so if somone is trying to contact me while i am not actually using my phone its like i might aswell not even own it.
This signal issue is pretty much rendering my phone usless does anyone know of any fixes that i can posibly do i have not applyed any OTAs directly from three but i have unlocked my phne with HTC DEV and have installed the latest stock roms to try and sort it out with the latest euopean radio to no provail.
does anyone have any sugestions for me? a posible fix? news from three or should i just give up on the HOX and switch phones altogether.
Same issue here dude, minus losing signal in my pocket. Also, I have to use the airplane mode and not toggle the network connection to get it to work

There is a thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613521 and basically if you dial *#*#4636#*#* choose phone information and change set preferred network type to WCDMA only the problem is solved - for me anyway but only until restart as the setting is reset.

You can make the setting permanent by instead going to "Mobile Network" in Settings, then "Network Mode" and select WCDMA Only. That sticks across reboots.

it has been 2 months though and it still hasnt been fixed HTC are taking the piss with this
Also another thing I have noticed is the signal is slightly worse in a case than without.... So mine at work can be hit and miss even more. I am on Three to with the Three firmware.
It has actually been better since I got it back from HTC repair. They seemed to have changed the whole housing and battery in the report for the squeaking and moving lcd screen. Maybe they have done a better job at putting it together than from Taiwan?
Although I didnt have this exact problem with my HOX from Three…. (just had crap signal, would re-connect OK though, but was hard to get from 3g to 2g and back again sometimes) mine just had poor signal everywhere…. so much so, I cancelled the contract. Cost me £500 to get out of it…. but well worth it TBH.
S
I purchased my one x from amazon and got three to swap my sim from my desire to a micro sim. I only get loose network when im at home.
I reported the network drop to them and they got back in touch. They said that there was not a problem with my phone its just the location of my house and the distance away from the mast. After someone from the network team called me they said that we can offer you a "home hub" (for free) which connects to my home router which provides signal in my house. There is always a catch with companies. They wanted me to renew my contract as i have 2 month left. I am not going to renew as i can find cheaper sim only deals.
I guess what im trying to say is that if you have a long contract left with three file a fault online and push for the home hub.
There is no harm in asking.

I have the same problem with Three and at first I was just like ahh I can live with that.
Now its really starting to annoy me no signal indoors what so ever and when I leave the house will not auto connect I have to enter and exit airplane mode for it to pick up a signal again, Ive sent in a complaint will see if they get back to me.
Just a heads up the signal not reconnecting seems fixed in the latest system, custom ROM here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601543
ROM Base 2.05.401.2

Hi Guys, im experiencing some annoying problem .
When i connect my phone to our Wireless network i got like 10 sec Internet access then it crashes the whole network. (I receive signal but cant connect to internet) . Then i have to restart my Router and disconnect my phone in order to get my Internet back.
Im using Static IPs but the Gateway and DNS are the same (idk if thats ok but works perfectly on my PC)
This problem appeared after the Jelly Bean update, before that ,it worked perfectly.
I would be very happy if somebody knows why is that happening.

In settings then WiFi and then use the menu button there are some settings for WiFi there must be something with frequency and then set from automatic to 2,4ghz ...this would fix it ....

I'm having a similar issue with my BT Home Hub 3 but mine will kick everyone off the wireless then add them back on straight away when i try to run anything on my HOX. (my Mrs's ipad, my laptops etc.)
I've tried router reset and changing channels on the router but nothing works.
Only happened after JB update.
Ive had this since I got the hox. Its actually got a bit better since the last update but still kills everything now and then

Yes set your router to G mode only will do the trick. Its a step down from B or N but seems the only solution. Its a HTC issue not JB because friends of mine who have other manufactures(Samsung) phones with JB have no issues on my network when my router is set to GB and N.

Basically, they are different types of WiFi networks with varying maximum speeds and distances.
i installed lupusv10 yesterday and keep having weird wifi problems with uhd rom!!!
I also installed the wifi module.
When i turn on my wifi all my connections in the area keeps switching,
also when i try to connect to my home network it won't let me.
I also tried to reset via terminal but no succes.
Same problem happend when on stock ICS .587 generic.
Hope someone had the same problem before (i really want wifi on my Phone)
Thx for help...

Translate, what does that mean?
Sent from LT18i with custom firmware by myself.
2nd in the list switches to the 3nd , then 4th goes to 2nd.... (keeps on going) verry weird, maby i should make a vid of it.
If you mean the list of networks keeps changing, it is because the signal strength might be changing and Android does list them by showing the stronger ones first.
Hi all,
Not been around for a long time so its great to be back
Recently got the Z1C on Contact, frankly its the biggest regret I've had with a mobile device.
Is anyone else having WiFi speeds slower than dial up?
My download speed is < 250 KB's
Any1 else had this? If so does any1 know a fix?
Thanks
I don't have that, neither on 2,4GHz nor on 5GHz. You could try the unofficial DooMLord kernel, it mentions "custom built wifi wlan modules", dunno if that helps.

I'd just like my Stock Z1C to actually work with WiFi.
Its not exactly difficult, its seriously annoying me now, why is it so slow?

but anyway, have you tried to close all apps on your phone?

I'll check it out when I get home but I never have Bluetooth on so I'd be surprised if it was that.
I have a gaming router which is extremely powerful and all other devices/phones work perfectly so I know that the Z1C is the bottleneck.
Any other ideas if its not the bluetooth?
Thanks
I've not had any issues with WiFi or BT, which is always on on my phone. I do use 5GHz for WiFi.

Have you tried restarting your router?
Does it go slow with every wifi? can you test it on different wifi and see if the problem is with one type of router?
Don't think I've seen anyone ekse with this problem, although flashing the .757 update messed up my bluetooth (then .761 fixed it).

Thanks for getting back to me
I have tested it on my work WiFi, I don't know whether it is coincedence, sod's law or normal but the WiFi on my Z1C at my work is absolutely rapid!!
I've just updated an app to test it, and it was at around 5MB's which is brilliant for me !
However, work WiFi is a 100MB's connection speed, where as at home I believe its around the 12MB's mark (geographic limitations in place here >.<).
From this I see only a couple of conclusions:
1 - Z1C and my home router just don't get along.
2 - As the WiFi speed is so much higher at work, so is the Z1C
or that theres no relation between the WiFi speed and my device but there is an issue with the Z1C WiFi itself?
I'm presuming its the first?
Thanks again!

Hi there,
I'm still on totally stock ROM.
I've done some testing and I believe it is on every router/internet but is very inconsistent. Sometimes its very speedy, others it will drop to almost unusable speeds.
I think I'ma just get rid of this terrible device, very disappointed in Sony. Here are some of my issues:
Phantom Touches
Unresponsive Touch Screen
Constant Crashes
Phone CONSTANTLY answers in Loudspeaker
Screen will not wake up
WiFi Speeds Totally Unusable

Just update to 14.4.A.0.108. It's also stock, official. You do not loose data while updating and it takes merely 10 minutes of "sitting back and relaxing"
As for wifi issue, did you try disabling wifi optimization fetaure found in advanced settings?

Have to be honest,
I got that fedup with all the issues on the phone, I sold it and bought an iPhone.
(Waits to be shot).
However I must say, iPhones feel very nice nowadays, nice and snappy etc.
But yeah, I'll still be hanging around these forums helping people out etc,

Hey that's a new phone just so you know because this is not acceptable.
Not sure about reclaims in your country but it should be valid in most?
Mine did about the same as my PC/PS4 = 60-95MBps, that is until yesterday
Both bluetooth and wifi are stone cold dead so I though I should reflash my ROM(Aur) and rushed it when I realized whilst doing the same 'ol start guide for the hundreds time I forgot to flash recovery :victory::fingers-crossed:

Got rid of my Z1C, and got an iPhone (SHOOT ME NOW).
