I am really disappointed with wifi on this phone. Even though the signal icon shows decent connection, wifi gets pretty slow when moving farther away from router. I did the comparisons with Xperia M around the house and the results for that phone were a lot better. Also, there is no option to choose frequency bands in Advanced wifi options, and wifi analyzer app doesn't even show me the option for 5 ghz.. I am unsure whether the issue here is faulty wifi receiver or something else. I have the latest 5.11 firmware(14.6.a.1.236).

Stock rom, kernel, etc? I've heard some people say you can improve that kind of thing through service settings and flashing other regional fw/modem files

I can't change kernel cause I can't unlock bootloader. The firmware that I flashed is prerooted DE firmware, I've also tried CE1 firmware but it was the same.

Do you know about the region number code in simple slot? It might not make a difference, but maybe try to flash a fw that matches up to that.

There's a little piece of paper inside the sim card slot that you can pull out that has information on it. One thing is a hyphenated number that indicates a certain region. Match that to fw download in Xperifirm.

Hey Everyone,
I have been going through hell troubleshooting this fone for a week now. I would like to have this thread to keep a log of what has been going on. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Back story
Got phone from eBay. I know, I know. It is a prototype etched with "Not For Sale CB5XXXXXXX" on the front of the bezel (numbers hidden for privacy). The phone is in immaculate condition with a perfect screen and absolutely zero scratches. It appears to be used very little. It had a screen protector installed so perfectly that it wasn't even noticed by the seller. Also, it came with a white back cover but the bezel is blue. All these facts leave me with some questions.
The sticker under the battery reads:
Sony Ericsson
MoP 1251.18 11W19
Type: AAD - 388087 - BV AA CB5
Prototype not for sale S1 1251-5447.18
Not Type approved Prototype build: TP Blue AT&T
There are 2 bar codes and S/N and some other numbers and Made in China after that.
(If any of the above number should be kept private please let me know and I will remove them.)
More Back Story
Phone works 100% stock with my T-Mobile SIM card. I can get into fastboot fine. I can successfully flash superuser to get root on the stock ROM. I can then flash kernels too. I verified that it is unlocked with the Sony unlock code.
Here is where it gets good.
When I flash ROMS, all hell breaks loose. Gin2Jelly worked great! I had partitioned my SD card and loaded all my apps with Titanium Backup and was about to use it as a daily driver..... until I inserted the SIM. No service. SIM works fine in other phones.
Then I started trying other ROMS. The would flash okay. After booting and waiting the prescribed 10 mins as usual for all ROMs multiple issues arose. No icons, H/W buttons not functioning, etc.
This is where I am at. What could be going wrong?
Set your apn settings manually for tmobile.

Hmmm.... I forgot to mention one other issue. On Gin2Jelly, I tried that and was unable to set them at all. They wouldn't save. I was so frustrated. If I set the Name, APN, MMSC and backed out without saving the new APN would show up in the list. Once I set the MCC and MNC, and either saved or backed out, the new APN disappeared.
The SIM card simply would not be recognized. I even tried an app called Tweakker APN INTERNET MMS that is supposed to help with this glitch and no go.
Thanks for the reply. I wish it was that simple.
SUNDAY BUMP!
Bueler??
Just tried Turbo Gamer Edition. NO SERVICE!!!! I guess I'm not going to get this phone working. The ROM loads fully but I cant enter any APN settings. They won't save. Tweakker East Internet and MMS app not detecting SIM card either. This effin blows.

R800a_3.0.1.B.0.270_ATT.ftf is the only FTF that seems to work 100%. Is this the right version my my model?
Hi too have the same prototype model etching on the bottom below the key buttons withe same marking underneath the battery. I am running it on tmobile in the USA without issues. When I received this phone it was bootloader unlocked however mine was sim locked. Had to get in touch with alejandrissimo to get sim unlocked.

Question - Would your T-Mobile SIM work on the stock ROM? Mine seems to function fine once I enter the APK settings. I thought that if it is SIM Locked that I wouldn't be able to use my T-Mo SIM on stock ROM.

Ay one point I had the at&t firmware Nd it worked fine. However I am in nxt l.e. and it works great. And in my area I get hspa+ (5-7mbps down/ 1-3mbps up)
I had to look up the T-Mobile apn settings. Just install the app tweaker from the Google play store. Its automatic, make sure your on wifi. It will look up the correct apn settings for tmpbile USA or whatever/wherever and install. No issues after that.

My SIM won't work in other ROMs so it won't let me set APN settings. I've tried that app as well. The app only works if it can detect a SIM card. The phone won't even detect a SIM card unless I am on FTF R800a_3.0.1.B.0.270_ATT.ftf. This is my main issue. Does this mean I am SIM locked?

READ the OP please
So here is a run-down of what I just did.
1. Flashed R800a_3.0.1.B.0.270_ATT.ftf via Flashtool in Quickboot mode
2. Booted into stock ROM and inserted SIM card and was able to browse and make calls.
3. Entered bootable recovery wih Quckboot
4. Flashed Lupus 720p
5. Booted into stock ROM and was still able to call and browse
6. Made a NANDroid backup
7. Wiped Cache/Dalvik
8. Installed Gin2Jellybean 2.4.0 from Lupus CWM
9. Booted, waited 10, rebooted
10. SIM not detected. Unable to enter APN settings. Tweakker APN app says "Your SIM card cannot be used. Please make sure your SIM card is inserted and you are in an area with GSM signal and then restart the process..."
I don't understand how my SIM can work in OEM ROM but can't in all other ROMs.
Am I doing something wrong? Should I try another FTF?

Gotcha. My bad. I been troubleshooting this for like 2 weeks. Not really sure, LOL!
So,
I hooked up with Alejandrissimo who was able to properly unlock my phone. He said that it was unlocked previously with some copycat tool rather than the one he used. The copycat tools touch the hardware side of the device and the original tool doesn't. This prevented the usual method of unlocking and more steps were needed. This test involved the "Testpoint" method. This required me to remove the sticker under the battery and use a paper clip ( I also tried a small wire but the paper clip worked best) to short one contact to a ground spot for the battery while plugging the USB in and then clicking a button on the tool on my screen. All the while, Alejandrissimo was remoted into my PC and helping me along the way. This is almost necessary because both of your hands are tied up with the paper clip and USB plug. It was intense, LOL. Of course I donated to him for his time.
I am still testing. It seems to be randomly rebooting after R800a_4.0.2.A.0.79.ftf, / LuPuS_zeus_Stock-gB+iCsv5 / Gin2JellyBean v2.4.0.
UPDATE After flashing a stable firmware, LuPuS_zeus_GingerBreadv10-ram.img, and Gin2Jelly, sadly my SIM card is still not detected yet worked in the ROM on the phone after the process was done.

Any of those will work on your R800at , I flashed [.79] without problems. I have flashed them all in the past and I have used my device on T-Mobile and AT&T. Also don't worry about the whole R800a and R800at thing, they are basically the same phone, both capable of HSPA+ just released in different regions of the world. Which is why all of those firmwares will work on your phone. The [.270] is not the most current ATT firmware though, [.285] is.
Also you should note, that flashing a stock firmware is only for setting partition sizes and the baseband, after you flash a custom kernel and rom, most of the stock firmware you flashed in the FTF is gone. It is just good practice to flash a stock firmware and also gives you a clean install to easily troubleshoot from.
Per your OP though, I can tell you that booting up after flashing something and having no icons and hardware buttons not working is a wrong firmware problem, whether it be the FTF or the Rom you flashed.
I do know that every Gsm firmware has booted on my R800at without problems, which makes me wonder if some of your problems could be due to the fact your R800at was only a prototype and its hard to say what was modified for the actual release compared to yours and even compared to ozzmanj's

His prototype sounds like mine (see photos) I have flashed several ROMS before settling on NXT LE. And I had no issues with any of them. Again though I did have to hit up Alejandrissimo to sim unlock it as my bootloader was unlocked when I got it. Only difference was mine was the standard black and no AT&T branding.
I have a S3 i747 in canada on koodo (telus towers) and recently i have been in areas with poor 4g reception and am on 3G for the most part. i have noticed that none of my applications which use mobile data function on 3G though, i have looked around and found a few posts relating to DNS issues but it seems to be more in general data not working and doesn't seem to apply. I have my phone set to LTD/GSM/WCDMA and the APN is set propperly from koodo, pulled off their website. Any help appreciated.
Thanks
EDIT: I should note i am running Paranoid Androind 3.6 but have also noticed this issue on CM and Carbon

flash a stock type rom and see if it helps. I'd do that before consulting the carrier. I doubt they would cut you off from earlier generation speeds
Problem:
The speeds which I get over 3g are ridiculous!! can hardly access any website, everything keeps timing out !!
I can't even download a 300 Kb File !!
Be it over Google play or any other download using the browser, I just can't download Anything.
The download starts..downloading on the notification bar..after waiting for a couple of minutes, it times out ??
Is anybody else facing this problem??
Has it got something to do with the E-988 model ??
Tries:
1.Tried switching carriers(3 different ones)>>same issue with everyone of them
2. Used the 3g/4g optimizer app along with the 3g tweak script by Zepplinrox>>NO effect
3. Tried to find a copy so that i can flash a new radio for my E-988>>couldn't find one
4. Tried using GetRIL but it said my phone is not supported.
There is Absolutely no problem with either downloading/internet access while I am using WIFI, but as soon as I switch to data, it just dies out
Any solutions/suggestions would help out a lot..
>>Took my phone down to LG service center, they said it works just fine:laugh::laugh:<<
Numerous factors depict whether or not you get a good speed when it comes to data. Location, congestion, company and location again.

Agreed man..but still, No 3G is that bad that you can't download a freaking 300 Kb file..
I assume that the radio is messed up..
waiting for someone to post native radios for Asia region..flash & try them out..

Make sure you are using the correct APN`s
It might be a good while before those modems are posted things seem slow around here. Make sure you are actually on 3G as it says 3G at the top and not 2G/E right?
I use E988 too....and have no 3G problem so far.....

APN is correct for every SIM. The problem doesn't seem to be with the provider, its either a hardware issue or maybe a software issue.
I have 3 GSM micro SIMs from 3 different providers..
The GSM signal keeps fluctuating..1 bar to 5 bars(no issue with audio quality though).
Never ever seen a 3G icon on the phone, hardly get a HSDPA(H).
>>Googled stuff and tried to Force my phone to WCDMA only, started having network issues..
>>checked ur stuff on build.prop edit as well..tried that..Didn't help..
>>Have a HTC One X as well, 3G works like a charm on that..
It would have to be hardware. If it was software everyone else would be having the issue

Thats the thing..I took it over to LG service center. They kept it over the weekend and said there was absolutely nothing wrong with the hardware !!
I told them it could be an issue with the receiver antenna (read it somewhere).
They said if that was the case then WIFI would be affected as well (which isn't).
I'm still confused.
Thanks for the input thiough..
will post if there is Any improvement.
same problem on f240s. wifi speed and stability is great, but mobile data is just way too slow.. i cant figure it out..
im usually stuck on "g", dont think i ever saw "3g" there.. the only thing that i think could be the problem is the 1900mhz frequency that my model doesnt have, but it has the 2100mhz frequency that my operator uses along with the 1900mhz frequency..
is there any way to resolve this? i saw some ways to convert the phone to e988. would thet help? i tried to alter things in the secret menu, but no luck. no setting worked except automatic..
Hello Everyone,
I am running the Virgin Rom with Ktoonsez.
I have been trying to find out the solution for more than two week but cannot find the solution. I got this strange problem in my phone, When I put my phone idle I get the full lte signal but however when i try to call someone all my signal get disappear but the strange thing is i can still talk to that person without the signal. As soon as i hang up my phone i would get all my signal back, when i get my signal back i can do normal browsing, watch video etc. I mean its no major issue, I was just wondering whether if there is any solution to get any signal bar back.

More device details please friend. What baseband are you on? NB4? If not, then you need to be on NB4 modem. If so, then it's possibly a kernel related issue I suggest flashing the latest build of Ktoonez kernel for AOSP, be sure to flash the right one for your phone. Example, don't flash the TouchWiz version

Sounds like it's working as it should! LTE cannot process phone calls so the device switches to 4g or edge depending on your area's reception. after the call is terminated, there is a very short delay, and you're reconnected to LTE (if there is reception for lte where you're at)
The device (depending on your settings) will try LTE, then 4G, then last resort to Edge when it's not on a call and just idling. It will connect when your device wants to access the internet or whatever, and selects the proper frequency (or mode) and use that for the connection..
check Settings/More Networks/Moble networks------ then under Network mode, you will see the connection choice.
if you tap on the network mode, it will give you different connection choices.
If you want LTE, you have only one choice and it downgrades itself as required as explained above.
you can save battery power by going to a lower frequency (like GSM only - which is edge Edge)
hope this helps you understand!

I want to flash the NB4 modem since im having the conection and do know how to use odin, just curious how to flash the modem as a .rar, I thought it had to be a .tar. so I felt it would be better to ask first before I brick my phone. I used the download for "Insane kit kat" I even unzipped it to find it still in .rar format

If you properly unzipped it and placed it in the phone slot of your odin program, you should be fine. Most people fail with either unzipping or placing it into the correct slot which in this case is the phone slot and not the PDA that you would use for a lot of other functions.

sent from my bluetooth controlled toaster that also takes pictures.
So after rooting and installing latest Cataclysm (Jan 6th update) with ElementalX I get this exclamation mark on my cell signal and wifi.
When that happens, I can use Facebook, Whatsapp, Youtube and I am able to make calls, texts, etc. What I can't do is load any page that isn't a google page on my browser. Also, I can't load anything on my Reddit app that isn't a text thread. Images, videos and anything external in general, won't load.
When I restart my phone, everything works fine. As soon as I lose signal or turn airplane mode on/off, it appears and I can't get rid of it.
I tried:
Resetting my APN settings.
Reinserting my SIM.
Changing preffered network to 2G/3G/LTE.
Resetting network settings.
Flashing ROM again.
Flashing original EFS again.
Wiping cache/dalvik.
I have no idea what to do or what is causing this issue.
Please help.
Go back to stock ROM and see if it happens there, if it does it's a carrier issue if it doesn't it's likely a bug with the ROM/Kernel you are using.
What carrier are you on? Have you check and/or re-verify those APN settings ? Next time this happen, turn on Airplane mode for 15 or 30 seconds, then turn it off again - do you have a decent cellular signal ?
I'm running PureNexus with EX rom and it's fine, solid (and stronger) signal on T-Mobile vs. N5 used by spouse.

Im not from the US or something popular but trust me I verified my APN settings.

I saw it sometimes on my custom ROMs, nothing to worry about though.
If you enabled data and you don't get the LTE sign, then try going into the Hidden menu and setting LTE to automatic. I forgot the hidden code though, can somebody else supply it? Alternatively, you can go inside settings>others>network>apn and check the apn, then go out and change the option to LTE (recommended) or something

Is this occurring with the MMB29P radio and vendor installed?

Do you use Adblock Plus? I had the same problem. Switching Adblock off and on solved the Problem. Apparrantly they have a problem with Https connections or something

Removing Adblock plus seems to fix the issue, thanks.
