Hello forum. I didnt knew what just happened and where to post it so i wanted to share it here !
As a first, i live in germany and use E-plus as my phine carrier. We got a thingie also, 0.facebook.com . It is free for us, and we can use it even when having no money on outlr phone. So for a couple if days in doing so, having 0.03 euros on my conto. Today, when i was sitting home and playing a game on my phone, the browser with facebook open in the background, i suddenly got a gtalk message, and then the whole internet connected ! I chatted and browsed a bit, but the my dad called me and i turned off mobile data after the call because i had to go out. When returning and turning it back on, i couldnt connect to anything besides 0.facebook.com again. After trying random APN's and proxies, i returned to tue standart eplus one and after heading to the site, i got a message again ! And the whole internet ! Im using it for a bit now and actually writing from it.
Everything i can say is, that background data was on, autosync was OFF, google talk kept trying to connect, and i was using the free website.
Anyone can figure out what is this, and if we can use it ?

All of it... at once... it was like reaching nirvana! LOLOL
Sorry, had to make the joke...
Just about every carrier has a "grace" on the request of data when you connect to their APN, basically, you add the APN, start browsing, and it takes them a few minutes to realize your phone shouldn't have access before they cut you off.

Hi everyone
I experienced a GPS problem since i update from build 3.0xxx
and i'm not alone, probably all Neo have this issue and i'm sure is a software bug
Here you can find interesting informations
http://talk.sonyericsson.com/message/145641#145641
the gps signal usually drops every 5 minutes without reason
there is a log in the discussione and very accurate dates
this is my last reply and experience:
"Oh my god, is totally right
in flight mode no gps disconnection !!!!!!
today 20km in the city with these settings:
wifi off - gms only - connection data off (i don't have a sim plane), my cell is totally out of the net
first 10 km gps drops every 5 minutes
last 10 km, same settings but flight mode ON
no more signal drops !!!
i don't know if crying or laughing
but it is clear this is a BUG
Sony do something, we hope in you"
I thinks would be simple correct this bug, the problem is very precise
like the wifi one that drops
what do you think about?
Today 50km with Sygic gps navigation
flight mode ON
GREAT! signal perfect and very very precise
flight mode OFF
very bad, every 5:00.00 minutes the signal drops
this happen only with no Data Connection
most of you have data connection, so you don't observe the problem, but there is
agps must not work during navigation !!!
i'm unable to contact sony to solve this issue, xperia support center says me they don't speak with developers to cure this bug in the next release software
please help me, it is possible do something, some mods from your developers?
it is so bad navigate and can't receive call
really ? maybe u can upgrade the version to 4.0
Yes, without data connection, the gps drops every 5 minutes, not ecceptions
only in flight mode all is perfect
so i ask you, you are very expert and good developers
it is so difficult investigate this problem and found a solution?
I can't wait ICS, this is a big issue
I hope some developers from you can help me, found the problem and a simple solution, a command line, a script, something that allow the gps to work without data

I don't use data, but I've never experienced any problems with GPS.
Which kernel do you use? Maybe try the OC kernel by inteks?
My is a stock model, rooted, with last firmware 4.0.2.062
the kernel is stock
i don't know to think, in flight mode works well, with no data connection drops every 5 minutes, you says is perfect , my not
but it isn't an hardware issue, this is sure
some ideas?
I usually don't use gps that long, only for getting my position for a tweet e.g. But the times I tried it worked perfect.
How is the connection in Google Maps?
I use Google Nav for hours on end in the car and never have an issue. STOCK .42 or .62

google navigator works with data
so not is my problem, that only occurs with no data connection
i don't use google maps, but sygic gps navigation, and all the time the signal drops every 5.00 minutes not a second more or less
this precise time let me to think there is something wrong in the firmware
tha hardware is good, because in flight mode i can navigate for hours
p.s i tried a firmware repair, and this didn't happen with the firmware 3.0xxx.145
Sorry, didn't quite understand your OP then.

Ok, if you don't use the gps more then 5 minutes, you can't observe any problem
so, also your experience not is concerned about my problem
however thanks for the support, i hope someone can confirm the problem first, and then find a solution

Ok, you use an other kernel, not the stock one
but do you use data ?
even if i mean a stock model without data connection, here is the bug

Hi,
I can confirm this bug too. I didn't notice it before ,but it's for a second only,so that is not critical for me.(I'm on official .42 ROM, no data connection)
Sent from my MT15a using XDA App
The common bug cause disconnections every 5 minutes for about 15-20s
I just discovered also Xperia Arc is affected from this
probably you can see only a second, but with different softwares the behavior is different.
Wich navigations software do you use?
It is clear is a bug, and this can appear in many forms, but with a common point, one disconnection every 5 minutes !!!
Bug not fixed with 0.62 firmware
But, there is not a developer that can solve it himself ?
If i wait sony ...
if you dont have a data plan, why not leave "data traffic" on at all time? it wont cost you anything, since you dont send/receive any data through mobile network.
i only used the gps once (about 40 minutes), with "data traffic" on, and i did not notice any signal drop.
i think this "data traffic" goes a bit deeper: when i first got the phone i switched "data traffic" to off (no data plan, anyway) and i tried to access the internet via wifi. wireless router connected, but nothing further worked until i turned "data traffic" on.

Also I had a gps working well, but only with firmware 3.0.xxx.145
Hey all.
I've got a problem with 3G on my Nexus 4 with UT 1.0 from 18 october.
When I turn on my device, 3G icon is seen for five seconds.
Then, this icon is removed and 3G does not work even after switch "Cellular Data" in syste settings.
What's the problem?
Sorry for my bad English.
