Ok just going to ask the questions here in the hope that someone can point me in the right direction.
Firstly I have this major issue with the signal bars going up and down, I've seen it drop from 4 bars to 0 in the blink of an eye. This is happening all the time an just seems like the phone has a real issue in this regard (seen some videos on youtube etc). Anyone know of a solution to this?
I spoke with Sony support today who fail to recognise the problem even exists. I also asked about ics update and was told it was rolling out as we speak however I've read nothing about this anywhere, usually when its out the guys on here are quick to get it. I am desperately hoping this might solve my problems.
The software on this phone seems particularly full of bugs, more so than any other xperia phone I have owned.
I love the design etc but really need a phone that does the basics and gives some reliability. Might have to go back to my iPhone if I can't sort this quickly.

Just found another issue with my xperia. I have noticed now that it scans for networks and finds mine, I then enter my code and it appears to connect fine and then just seems to disconnect again for no reason. It then just goes through this continual cycle of connecting and disconcerting
Any ideas?
Had the phone only a couple of days and bought privately, installed the update yesterday so has latest software.

Hi,
You may have noticed that you now have a Q&A - Questions and Answers sub-forum. This is now the home to all your burning questions you have about your device. Please no longer post your questions in General or any of the other sub-forums, especially not Development
You may notice threads disappearing from here and that's due to a bit of a cleanup moving recent questions over there where they're now more relevant. Obviously this won't be done for old threads but if you don't see a thread here that you were contributing to then head over there.
Also if you see question threads posted in any other sub-forum then please just use the report button and we (the mod team) will move them over, even if it's your own thread, that's how you can notify us. Remember the report button isn't just for bad things, it helps us help you.
Summary:
If you tick the box under "IS THIS A QUESTION?" in your new thread make sure you're in Q&A
Have you typed [Q] at the start of your title yourself? It should be in Q&A
Does your thread end in a "?" or belong to the who, what, when, where, why, or how group it's more than likely a question so off to Q&A you go
You get the point so please post correctly
Thanks

You are absolutely right!!!

I know that such threads aren't welcomed, but friend of mine just brought me stock S III (i9300) whining that it's so slow. Since I've never flashed i9300 yet, I have absolutely no idea which ROM and kernel should I pick. Idea is to get maximum performance and stability as possible. Could you please help me with recommendation?
Hopefully mods will tolerate this thread, please consider it just as discussion to get few ideas which ROM to try for a newbie, not X versus Y.
Thanks
I tried many ROMs and for me, the best is NxTGen ROM 13.0. Not 13.1, i had some wifi issues with 13.1. The best on NxTGen 13.0 for me is, that there is really much free RAM compared to others. There is very good battery and speed is great too, but it depends on kernel settings (clocking, governors...). I reccomend you use it with latest RC1 boeffla kernel.
It isn't that this type of thread isn't welcome but against the posting rules, as they can lead to a flaming war. Try them all, don't share your conclusions.

I know, I would try at least few of them out if it was my phone and I had time for testing. But unfortunately that's not the case here, so I just hoped for some friendly ideas which option is good to go. I really don't want to disappoint him...

I would like to direct this to the Moderators or any other higher ups that need to get involved.
This Q&A Bot thing is rediculous.
It is posting in seemingly every device for every rom. Stating to direct all questions in regard to a rom in Q&A sections in order to keep development from getting clogged up.
All its doing is clogging up Q&A.
I thought the concept was, if it is a question within regards to a specific rom, that's what the thread is for?
If it is a device specific question, then it goes to Q&A?
When you click to view Q&A Bot profile, it comes up invalid. Is this a new system generated thing to organize the threads better?
Not working. To me it is just as bad as having an ad pop up.
Honestly, I find myself wanting to come on here less. I come here in attempt to help others if I can. An attempt to return favors that others have done for me. What is the point of Q&A Bot to create a thread it cannot support or will not respond to?

The Q&A bot only comes into action when a new user tries posting in the development section. As you know, new users can't post in development threads. So the Q&A bot makes a new thread in the Q&A section so the new users post can be read.
I can see where xda thinks this is a way of getting newbies heard and keeping development threads clean. But when you boil it all down it actually creates clutter and disarray. Because after all isn't XDA a development site? Therefore all threads here are considered development threads in my opinion.
In my opinion only recognized developers should be able to post in development threads. All development posts should have links to respective Q&A threads. Leaving development threads clean of everything but the dev's posts. This way the dev can post tweaks, bugs and tips that are easily found without going thru 100's of posts to find solutions. The dev can monitor the Q&A thread and answer questions there. When a valid question arises the dev can answer it in the Q&A thread. Then make an update post in the development thread.
What do you think?
If only people with "RD" status can post in the dev section this device and a lot more others would be pretty boring to own. I agree with @captemo those threads are cluttering the place up and are a bit annoying, plus I thought there was a 10 post count rule that prevented new users to post in the dev section? is that rule no longer in place or something or is it being circumvented in some way? I get the point of those threads in order to help out new users get the advice they seek and all but honestly its seems like a lot of users now a days don't bother to read a few pages of a thread let alone use the search function , and want to be spoon fed. Not trying to be a d-bag or any thing like that but it gets a bit out of hand at times seeing the answer they seek is just usually a few pages back from the last one. OK my ranting is over lol....

i agree with some of what all you have said...but with that said.
our Q&A section is already a mess. The only one ive ever seen that wasnt is in the epic 4g touch forum, and thats because they had a member create a noob friendly support thread for all questions and roms. And the members,myself included, made sure questions were posted there and not just making a new thread for questions that have been asked and answered. It also allowed the more experienced members to have a place to help that was easy to find and point noobs in the right direction.
if you guys are interested in starting and supporting such a thread. i would look at the e4gt thread for ideas how to set it up...or u can look at the one i made and support in the galaxy tab 10.1 forum. Here is the Link to mine, as i cant seem to get a mod over there to sticky it.
These threads should give you all a nice idea about how a similar thread here would help, if used and a mod stickies it so it is always seen by new members.
as im soon departing this forum for a new device..i will not start such a thread. But will always stop in to help support it.
Have a great day,
