Hi guys
i have a big problem with the GPS, i lost the signal every min in outdoor and he got difficulty for download the signal.... do you know any fix for these? Thanks a lot for any answer Tyrigi.
PS: sorry for my bad english im italian D:
Hello, I have the same issue: even in good conditions (static with a clear sky), it takes a long time to get a fix and then it is always losing it. I had not this issue on my former HTC Desire.
I tried to reset the phone (not factory reset only restoring default settings without removing user data) but without success.
Do you have this issue too ? Or can that be an hardware failure ?
Thanks for your answers before I contact the customer service.
Have the same issue! Got an x10 before that had no problems with the GPS. Same location of the two phones. X10 mini pro works, sk17i not.
Have loss of network issues with the sk17i too.
Hardware problem or not, thats the question... Have installed fasterfix for speed up the GPS positioning.
No differences detected.
I'am from Germany with t-d1 provider. Not a branded handset, just retail.

I've got the same issue ...
I've got a X10 mini pro without any issues with GPS ... but with 2.3.3 stock ROM on my SK17i, GPS signal was lost so many time in completely cleared area !
I updated my SK17i to the UK 2.3.4 provided by wotan and i've got less of issues !!!
...for the moment but i'm testing yet ...
Thanks for the info about less issues with the 2.3.4 firmware. I'am still waiting for an update. Have the CID 1244-7088 and no update since the official anounced global roll out
Want to do a upgrade installation. It is no fun to me to install all of the apps again. hope it will be better with the signals in 2.3.4.

So after intense digging on this site.......People had solutions to the first two probelms.....so i tried it install new firmware, install custom firmware.....install new modem.bin files.....etc.etc. the person that i read off of was using the shw-m250k model......which is very simillar to the 250s.
so after about 15 hours of doing many different things.....nothing seemed to work....
so now im asking the forums to help me fix these issues....its extremely stressful and annoying that nothing is working......
Please help me fix these 3 main issues and i will be forever grateful....

i will try my best
1. slow data? on 3g or wifi? i believe it may be your coverage mate. its not the fastest everywhere mate. if u have chance compare the speed with normal SGS2 in the same area. if its 3g check your APN network provider setup and make some changes that may follow. you can check that in setings-wireless-network--APN
2. conexion extremly bad - again the same apply - u cant compare this model with any other i mean with sgs1. the best way to find out whats the difference will be checking the signal of "real" SGS2.
3. i will recomend you to check Message centre - its inside MSG app - settings it maybe not supported so you will have to enter it manualy mate.
Hint-any APN or message change will need reboot in order to start working mate.
i know its not a big deal but at least i gave you some ideas.
thanks
Hello, I just bought a Xperia mini pro a few days ago and there seems to have a problem with the wifi connection on my Lynksys Wireless-G router.
1. when it connects to the router it only has 5 to 10 sec time span connection.
2. tried an application called wifi static on the android market using my mobile network and it didn't work
3. since i am just new here tried to read some forums for 5 hours and didn't get any info or I just got lost in between threads.
4. I don't know how to solve the issues with the router although I am seeing the same problems with other devices. No problems with laptops, other some brands of phones, apple products)
If there is a solid solution to this problem please do reply.
First of all, I think you should try to reset the router.

Fw. is the stock hungarian T-mobile and its rooted by zergrus.

Tried it dozens of times. I was trying to check on other forums and threads but unfortunately, i didn't see a direct solution. But I was wondering how a SK17i is affected by a fluctuation on a specific 2.4 ghz router. Although other devices work perfectly.
Is there a solution other than changing the rom? Maybe a program or a calibration that is permitted by the device without sacrificing the warranty?
How?

I appreciate your help although im just gonna ask on a specific way to change that. Im still new at this I hope you understand. My expertise lies in a different category. If there is a way that you can help or help on providing a thread on how to change it, it is well appreciated.

im just saying i have wifi problems too and thats cause im on .42 fw. so im asking u what firmware version youre now on. if its .42 than thats most likely the cause of your wifi problem.
so my suggestion is try to upgrade your fw to .58 or .62 and the wifi problem would be gone i guess.
iam now trying to flash to .58 to fix my problems like yours too
edit: if its firmware fault then thats nothing you can do, i have tried wifi fixer from the market and its not fixing so the only way is to upgrade to the latest firmware and thats if youre actually currently on .42 fw

I upgraded to .62 using the pc companion. still having wifi problems. Any suggestions? I tried yesterday roaming around the neighborhood testing the wifi system of all the neighbors using different types of routers. It is working with their router. Unfortunately, my house and my parents house have the same router with the same problem.
I'm looking for a solution that can bypass any router so i wont have any problems wherever I go to. Using my HTC smartphone it works perfectly. Although SK17i doesnt agree with the thought.

well then the answer is simple.
fix your router!
because it is your router fault. not the phone
I had the same problem with my lynsys router when I got my mini pro, it would connect for a bit and disconnect, actually all the devices connected to the router would lose the connection. The fix, updated the router's firmware. No problems since then.
hope that helps.

Thanks so much for reminding me that. I just tried it today and it worked. Although I searched for more than an hour for an answer.
For those who has a Linksys wireless-G Router version 7 (not in the linksys website, I dont know why) just search this code below on Google or your preferred search engine.
FW_WRT54Gv7_*7.00.8.008_2*0090709.bin
Got mine in this website
bergfiles.com/i/bf4859cb7ah32i0
Combine this with the latest SK17i update using the PC companion
And everything will work smoothly

Just fixed it. I appreciate the wake up call. I thought there is a way around it.
The modem was reset so I checked the net. Saw the key to opening up the router website. I left the user id blank and put the password "admin" and got through the router website.
Thanks =]

have you guyz tried to reflash back the official rom? wondering if its a case of bad flash? before this did you guyz have any gps problem?
Hi everyone,
I´ve recently bought a Galaxy S6 Edge (G925F)and I am very shocked by its very bad GPS reception. I tried using FasterGPS and set a nearby NTP server (i.e. north america) and also to download aGPS data, to no avail.
Actually, the GPS is able to fix in quite a short amount of time but then, for some strange reason, it is unable to maintain the GPS fix!
I noticed that if change the Location Method from "GPS, Wifi and mobile", to "GPS" only, the drop seems to be less disruptive - instead of putting me in the middle of the ocean, the maps seems to block for a couple of seconds.
I started to think that it was software issue, but changing firmware version or kernel did not help it at all. This is very unfortunate because this is really not acceptable GPS quality for a phone this costly and otherwise awesome.
Using stock firmware: COH2 (XEU). Rooted and using kernel from Alex-V (v1.3)
Anyone else having this issue?? Any ideas on how to solve it?
P.S: I thought of returning it ... but I already rooted it and love the phone
cheers,
-Francisco
Hi,
I have a same problem with my G925F
Hello everyone,
Let me begin with saying that i've already contacted MIUI support as well as i've searched other MIUI forums for the solution of my problem, wich is really strange to be honest.
I own an original Redmi Note 3 Pro (previously i owned a Redmi Note 3G). I use the largest mobile network operator in my country and he gives all his customers the ability to use other mobile network operators range/connection in roaming for free whenever we like. It doesn't support 4G from different vendors, so it's 3G max. This is important factor later in the story.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The phone was originally shipped with MIUI China Stable ROM wich run fine but as you know it had a lot of crap in it including adds and a lot of wierd chinese apps. But it DIDNT'T cause my any trouble with phonecalls quality.
I used MIflash & download mode to flash the latest MIUI Global Stable ROM, wich in the beginning didnt cause me any problems with phonecall quality.
HOWEVER. After 1 week of using the phone, one of the updates for Global Stable came out. Phone was updated without any problems and it run fine, but i noticed that whenever im talking with someone the quality of the phonecall was lower then ussually.
Then another update came out and it was EVEN WORSE. I thought it's the issue with the ROM itself so i patiently waited to get my permissions for unlocking the device.
I finally got it so i flashed my phone with MIUI China DEV ROM, installed TWRP and installed the latest MIUI available for my country (wich i previously used for over 2 years or RN 3G) wich also includes fixes and optimizations. HOWEVER the problem still occured.
I then started to blame my SIM Card, so i got a new one yesterday, i also did a factory reset just to be sure, DIDN'T HELP.
So to SUM UP:
Issues: Call quality is low in random calls
How does it show: Caller speaks like with a robotic voice, interference, sometimes i don't hear the caller for 2-3 seconds.
ROM STORY:
1. I purchase RN3 Pro. It comes with original china stable ROM. Phonecalls work fine.
2. I install global stable. Phonecalls are fine.
3. I install two updates to global stable - the quality of phonecalls goes down.
4. I unlock bootloader and install custom ROM along with TWRP, same issues.
5. I reflash whole ROM, clean installation, same issues.
6. Yesterday : I get new SIM card, i factory reset my system and get new updates: SAME ISSUES.
Wierd factors:
- sometimes when the problems occurs while on call, i can resolve the issue with just waking up the screen for a couple of seconds..
- problem seems to happen less when WIFI/Data usage are off
- problem seems to happen less when using headphones (Piston V3)
- problem DOESN'T happen AT ALL when i switch to other mobile operator network in roaming! It's only happening in my main mobile operator network! I would use other networks instead of mine but LTE/4G isn't allowed yet while on roaming :/
- this issue happens on both SIM CARD slots, on different SIM CARDS
I tried to reflash China Stable, however it seems that there were too many updates and one of them is causing the problem now on every ROM. There's a few topics on MIUI Official forums about that, there are bug reports about that but i doubt MIUI Devs will notice this.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
Link to my MIUI topic: http://en.miui.com/thread-267736-1-1.html
Link to random bug report about this from other user: http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=266620&page=1#pid4845168
Kind regards,

hey what happened to your device?
I think my redmi note 3 pro has the same issue, call quality seems to go down where I would lose what the other person is saying for a second or two like the earphone is malfunctioning.
but the speaker works fine and signal is not an issue either
were you able to fix your issue?
I have the same problem with my phone since I remember. I got my phone around 3 weeks ago and flashed the latest Stable and Developer ROMs but the problem still exists. Like mentioned above by my friend, the quality is fine when I change to other operators in 2G, but in 3G and LTE its totally mess. I wish someone recognize this problem and fix this.

so sorry to hear that you have this issue as well
this is just unbelievable.... how can they just ignore such an issue? It's becoming a nuisance to sometimes impossible to use the phone to make or receive calls as I can barely make out what the other person is saying
Is there anyway we can complain about such issues?
Guys I found a workaround for this problem. Although it doesn't solve it completely. By this solution I succeeded making calls with much less noise and problem.
You have to turn the proximity sensor off for calls. It somehow solves the problem for now and make the calls much more understandable. Hope it helps you and get solved completely.
Me also facing same call quality issues

Same here no issues on China stable. Worse on global stable.. try typing *#*#995995#*#* wait 2sec and type *#*#995995#*#*(the same thing)again.. also go to settings installed apps find qti.supersaver open it and force stop these are like temp solution . If this helped please hit the thnx button
Thx for your sharing information but that didn't work dude. The problem still persists.
Guys I got a solution for myself. The problem actually WAS with the signal as I thought contrary. Yes, the 2G network works well because it has more strength with less range so its obviously works better than 3G. Hence, I started searching for a solution to improve the signal I get in my phone. The best thing I found was an app named "Network Signal Speed Booster" which boosts the signal you receive. Whenever I called a phone number after running this app, the call quality was PERFECT. This app actually connects you to the nearest antenna so the result is a better connection to the network provider. Please do this solution yourself and see if it works and notice the others. thx.
Thanks
Behrouz Your solution may work very well for me
I had the same problem
Thanks
My friend has issues with a Redmi Note 3 PRO speaker. He doesn't hear a conversation clearly. The person who he is talking with hears him perfect. Will "Network Signal Speed Booster" app help in this case? Some people says it's a fake program. Any new solutions?
Confirmed, Network Signal Speed Booster helps but temporary. I`ve noticed that it doesn`t matter of the network type,(4g,3g,2g), it happens only while the wifi is on.
Regards,

Doesn't work on Nougat ROMs like Lineage OS
When the wifi is off everything is fine. But I can't understand what causes the issue.
