Well i installed after full wipe slade's rom for mini pro (v 2.5 with all hot fixes) and my problem is the WiFi. I'm connecting successful but when i'm going to download something from the market, the WiFi shows as connected but the download stuck and also it doesn't transfer any data (i tried to open a page in browser).
I tried:
Mac filtering from router for my phone
Changing Channel on router
put it as "Never Sleep" on the phone
Tried Blade's Wifi Fixer
What else can i do?
Thank you
Well on my ncollege wifi i can connect without rproblems.. But on my home is the problem.
So, you said yourself where the problem is - your home wifi
Not sure is market in v2.5 fixed because in v2 i can't install apps from market or update.
Well look.. I searched the entire forum here for "wifi problems on xperia 10 mini pro" and i found a ton of solutions. None of them worked (instead i screwed up my phone and i made a reflash again). Then i tried my last hope. Adjust a static IP on my phone. Now i can download form the market (but not angry birds though ). The only thing that i hate is that i must switch to "auto ip" whenever i leave my home.
So I've got my Ray for a few months now, but ever since I have problems with the WIFI and GPS connections.
GPS:
I used to use Navigon on my Acer Liquid, but that app doesn't work anymore unless there's an active data connection and I don't have a data plan. Now I use CoPilot Live Premium 8.xxxx. App itself works well, but the GPS signal get's lost every few minutes and I have the feeling this is getting worse. Especially in cities it's posible I have to wait for like 15 minutes to have a signal and after that the signal gets lost every 2 minutes or so. Is this just due to a poor GPS receiver in the Ray or what?
WIFI:
I can connect to my router (WPA2-Personal AES) but only for 2 minutes. After that, the icon in the status bar shows that my Ray is still connected to the router, but there is no internet connection anymore, eg in the market pages keep on loading most of the times without saying the connection is lost or so and I have to turn off WIFI and turn it on again after a minute to have it working again for 2 minutes -_- If I do this a lot, it even kicks my computers of my network and I have to reboot my router
I hear there a quite a few problems with the WIFI in kernel related situations and it's often solved by using a custom ROM, but I would like to stay on stock ROM.
What could be causing this? The router, the WIFI security...? I didn't have the chance to test it on another router, maybe tomorrow.
Any help would be appreciated!
For the wifi, if you could test it on another network, we could know if the problem comes from your phone.
For the GPS, if your phone is rooted, I suggest you this application, with every Android phone I have I use it, and I have a some-seconds signal acquisition. It may fix your problem, but I don't understand its origin.

Thanks for the app tip, I will try it!
Try sygic for navigation. It's free and for now it worked with no problems for me.
I have some problems with wifi too. At home i can connect to the router freely, when using my laptop as router it shuts the laptop down, at friends it restarts his router it almost looks like Ray is to aggressive when connecting.
I looked into the problem again today and finally, I got it working.
The things I did:
1) Router firmware update (Dlink DIR-615)
2) Removed Ray's DHCP settings from the router and added them back manually so it never expires.
(Up till this point I still had the same issues.)
3) Changed the WIFI mode from N and G mixed to N only
=> PROBLEM FIXED
There seem to be a lot Xperia users (especially Arc) with my kind of WIFI problems. This thread was very helpful:

I don't have GPS problem as it connects within 1 min without AGPS support...
But i do face wifi problem especially when downloading larger files >100mb.. It constantly gets disconnected...
The wifi disconnection is genuinely present when i am downloading torrent files... It just kills the connection then connects again... I literally can't download any torrent files especially larger ones like movies etc...didn't have this issue when i had HTC sensation...

Hi, I have problem with Wifi too, but another one. Now, I have this custom rom - CM9 FXP 119 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285977
But wifi isnt working - I can see wifi to connect, but when I hit connect, nothing happens. I have this problem in many custm roms (Jj's, MIUI). I really dont know what to do.. I tried reflash rom, reflash kernel, but nothing helps. Please, help me
I have same problem with wifi. It's connect tot wifi network and in a few seconds iti disappear de wifi and unable to autentifications to wifi. I have RayOniumICS.v5 Rev1 rom and Aire kernel.
This is a weird one. For a month I have been using the Leedroid rom with Honeycomb. I have the /htc /flyer 32gb with 3g (UK). In the last few days I have lost my internet connection on both wIFI and on 3g. I did get it back for a few hours today and now I can't connect again!
Having a tablet with without connectivity is a bit like having a fancy brick :-(
I have tried removing the Sim card and re-inserting it and trying a different wifi router.
Anyone else had issues like this?
i assume you haven't made any changes/modifications/installations recently that may have messed with it?
for your 3G connectivity, put your sim card in your phone to determine whether the issue lies with the sim card or the Flyer...also check your APN settings
same with wifi - can you connect your phone to your router's wifi?
my guess is that you installed an app that's messed with your settings
Problem solved (sort of)
Thanks for the reply
You may have been right that an app messed up my settings. I know the APN settings were correct as I could connect from my Nokia phone using them and the SIM card. I could also use two other definitely internet connected routers.
In the end I did a factory reset using CWM. After a few scary moments after the re-boot it was working again. Evidenced by the fact that after reboot the tablet tried to download my previously installed apps again!
I have had to re-do some settings and the Flyer seems to be runnng a lot more smoothly than before. Still no idea what caused my problems but will definitely be checking after I install apps in future that my web connection stays up just in case! Update, it seems my g and ADSL wifi are not getting along together - had no probs before though....mmmm....

you can stop that from happening...that's a "feature"...lol...either untick "back up my settings" under >settings/privacy; or don't add a google account after a new flash until you have reinstalled apps from a backup

some people have had success changing the wifi channel on the router to something higher than 11 (so i've heard, i've never had to do it myself)...you may also want to try setting static IPs for any other wifi devices to avoid conflicts
either way, it is far more likely that the issue would be settings other than ROM related, else everyone else would be having the same issues
you could also try something like this

I just bought Galaxy S DUOS..I am loving the phone but i have a problem with WIFI. The mobile gets connected to network but and it also shows a working internet over the connected network. But When I try to browse net or use play store it works excellent for first 40-50 secs or 2 min or even sometimes 5 min. but then afterwards it won't work at all.Even if i queue a download during that first moments when wifi is working..after that it wont download the file.. The download just hang in between or gets interrupted..:crying:
As i just bought the phone i am not thinking of rooting it at least this early..And theres no any custom ROMS available for S DUOS anywhere yet..as far as i know..
Though i was wondering if i could extract the apk from any other S DUOS and then i can try flashing it with my device.. Actually I don't know much about it. I am just wondering if that can be done..Sorry if i said something very noob..
But seriously i need to fix my wifi.. help is really appreciated..
PS-Even i tried Fix my wifi app from the play store.. but it also didnt fix anything.

Even i faced the same problem with my home network .If your problem is resolved its okay but incase you are still facing the trouble
Check for this: is your wifi network protected then make it a open network and try. This resolved my issue , ofcourse I agree that making a wifi network open is Not suggestible

Hi friends,
My Xperia Z2 is about six months old. Since last month its giving me a hell of a problem with WIFI. Whenver I switch On wifi on the divice, it slows down the internet on the divice itself further also slows down the home network speed (9Mbps to 1 Mbps and gradualy 0). When I switch off the wifi on my xperia, all other divices works great.Initially I thought its my modem issue, hence got a new modem and still the issue persisted. Furthermore this issue occurs intermittently -twice on thrice in a week and persists for a day or two, then suddenly runs fine.
Steps performed already:
1. WIFI and router settings are ok. Infact installed a new modem.
2. Phone repair and software update done on PC companion. ( Whenever I do this, it runs ok for a couple of days and then back to square one).
3. Tried using friends home wifi network and similar experience.
Had any of you guys encountered this issue. I have been asked to send the phone for warranty repair. However I am afraid, since the problem is intermittent , hope the repair guys would actualy able to find the issue.
Thanks for your help,
Regards
Abhijeet
any help friends?
Thanks
Try using a firewall app like AFwall+. Block everything and start unblocking your apps one by one. See if there is any rouge app in your phone
Good luck!

Also check to make sure you don't have conflicting ip addresses. My router would assign my phone and laptop the same ip address which caused issues. I manually set my phone to an address outside of the dynamic range.
