St17i xperia active wifi - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Anyone having a flactuating wifi signal on xperia active 2.3.4? Is this a defect that my phone has or is it natural?

I have the same problem, i think that it is not a defect.
May be the soft problem.

Thank you for replying.. now i know that its not just mine..

Having problems with mine as well, experiencing it while holding the phone on top, in horizontal position. Stronger signal when i hold it vertically, holding it on the bottom.
I don't think its a software problem, i believe its more of a hardware problem, antenna position?

Its a "where i have my hands" problem. If you obstruct the antenna with your fingers, then yes you will have wifi problems.

It could very well be what tuxsterph and dumraden are saying. If the signal get stronger/weaker depending on where you hold the phone it's probably as simple as that.
I will forward your comments though so it's available for the teams working with new software and product development. Not sure what can be done (or if) but I guess it doesn't hurt letting them know.

this is normal, this happens because the launcher application leaves ram when you open a heavy application

Dark patch on screen after drop (pic inside) - advice needed

Hi all
So....... I dropped my phone and now the screen has an ugly dark patch appear in the corner.
See picture.
The patch has grown over the last couple of days so I am wondering if it is moisture since my gf threw a damp towel on it afterwards just to make things worse!
Anyone seen this before?
Just got back from hols today so was planning on taking it apart but wanted some advice first.
Might be a job for travel insurance, but I'd prefer to keep this one if it is repairable.
Thanks!

Doesn't look like moisture to me, think the drop might have damaged some internal workings. I would just get it fixed under warrenty or in your travel insurance.
Ok thanks for the response. I'll see I can find locally.

Same problem
Hi,
i have the same problem. Dark patch appeared after (a short) drop and got much bigger after a few days.
@N-C have you figured anything out? I would appreciate any hint/advice.
I eventually managed to get it fixed under the warranty. They replaced the screen.

Nav POV changed, not sure how to restore

Over the past week or two, the orientation of my navigation has changed from "third person view" to an overhead shot of the maps that don't rotate as I am driving. I am just a little arrow that moves around the map.
I've tried looking in the settings for some sort of option to go back to the third person view, but I sure can't figure out how to do it. Anyone able to offer a trip on this?

I understand the "Bad" view is just the settings screen where you can select alternate routes, etc, but that's how it appears as I am driving in the main nav screen.

Hard to tell. Every once in a great while things just go haywire. Same thing happens to your home computer if you don't restart it ever so often. Glad it fixed it for you.
dat helped

Xperia U can't get satellite lock under GB without internet connection, i don't know if this issue has been resolved in ICS, or it's a hardware related issue, if this is the case you may consider selling it and get a late-2012/2013 sonys, or even another brand..
please anyone who upgraded to ICS feed us back...
I am also using GB on Xperia U and Its really frustrating to think i paid my hard earned money for this device.....lastly i was using Nokia n8 and never faced such issue....i don't get what has sony charged us for....it is least bothered to even provide some update to rectify such problems...am never ever again in my life going to buy a cellphone from sony....
GPS problem, battery backup problem, camera problem etc....

I have found a minimal solution...use gps test app..go out side..i mean under clear sky...then when u see the satellitesshowing...hold on for 30s-1m...ur gps should be locked

Maybe the battery is giving crap, swap it.
Sent from the little guy
Never seen that before. That sucks. My screen was a little glitchy after a hard drop; factory reset and it fixed it somehow! Maybe lucky? Good luck.
He/she might me on ICS, if he/she's on 4.0.4 and factory resets, bye bye phone.
Sent from the little guy
It's not the battery or the soft. I change the soft and it's ok. I think is the display and must change.
I will need a little more help... What rom you recommend ? And a link will be great . Thanks a lot !

Did you try the battery thing?
What you mean "it's ok"?
Sent from the little guy
Yes I tray the problem is not from that. I mean maybe is the screen to look inside ,to dismantle the phone.?
