Hi guys.
I've always used xperia mini pro as my first phone.
Now i've changed it with Moto G, but i'd like to reactivate my mini pro for the second sim.
The fact is that I can't make wifi work properly: if i look for a wifi network i can find all my neighborhood wifi, except mine (i used to connect to it with mini pro) and i'm sure wifi is working both on router and mini pro because i've tried other networks and devices.
How can i make mini pro to find my home wifi? I've tried to change rom, kernel, reset the device to stock firmware, but i still can see all the networks except mine...
Any suggestion?

Hi Guys
My new HTC Gratia won't see my Thomson WiFi. I had the same issue with my HTC HD Mini too although at home it WILL see and connect to my Belkin N so I am unsure what the difference is between the two routers or what I could change here?
The Thomson that I cant see is a TWG870U

Are you using a custom ROM or the original ROM?
Hiya
Android 2.2
Build number is 2.37.405.10
Software is 2.37.405.10
Bseband is 47.54.35.20U_7.13.35.13
I have not changed the phone since i unwrapped it.
Do you have any other wifi capable devices which do find your Thomson router?
Yes
Hiya
Yes my XPS can see the wifi no issues.

Maybe its the channel set on the router for broadcasting. You can either change the channel on the router to something like 11 or so, or you could go in the advanced settings in wifi settings on your phone, then change to first option (Regulatory domain) to the channel set on your router. I'm not sure if the option is available on the stock Gratia rom. Good luck!
Tried that and still no joy, most annoying The option you mention is not on my phone by the way.
Hi Guys
I finally figured this out!
Went into router and changed it from 5ghz to 2.5ghz and et voila now my phone can see it
Hope that helps someone

Hello,
i have a Xperia Mini Pro SK17i, buyed to Vodafone but i unlocked to use Simyo (Spain).
I have the following problem:
When the phone restart i have data in GPRS or 3G, no problem at this, but in few hours/minutes the internet connection dissapears and the G or 3G icon too but i have signal. I have tested the sim card in other Android Phone and works OK.
All options are the same in the two phones but in Xperia Mini Pro not works. I have not installed any application that controls the data connection.
Any ideas?
uuuuup!!!!!

Finally, i could not solve the problem, I migrated to another carrier and the problem was fixed. I think this phone has any problem with that carrier.
hi. did you tried with any other sim with same network carrier.

Yes, but, as the problem was randomly in the time, sometime works for hours and other time for 2 days, when i test another sim card whit same carrrier, the test was only few minutes.
Try with another sim card of different carrier.

No, none of that.
had the same problem
My gf's phone had the same issue, we eventually had our carrier (Claro- Colombia) replace the SIM card and everything has worked fine since (about a week). Will report if there's any change. She is using stock 2.3.4 ROM and Kernel.
It could be due to unlocked method, but not sure
I will respect to you, if you can respect to the other rest.
Sounds like you may have WAP settings instead of Internet settings. To check this please do the following:
Main menu > Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names >
What you should have here is generally your networks name followed by the work 'Internet" whilst WAP settings are more along the lines of Vodafone Live etc.
To confirm that you have internet and not WAP settings in this location you are best to check directly with your network provider.
Hi,
I'm posting my question here, since i can't reply on the original thread.
Currently i'm running Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 (custom) on my HTC Hero.
First off all, great job and thank you so much for keeping the hero alive!!
Tried a lot of different roms and this one leaves the others far behind!
I do however have a small problem with wifi. The device is not "finding" my home network. It does find other networks in the area, and i have been able to log in on a friends network. But it doesnt find this particular one. Other devices (laptops, desktops) are able to connect to it, so i dont think that the issue lies with the network.
Previously i was running elelinux FROYO_2.2.1_Final_Android_Stock (special edition) and did not have this problem.
Is there anyone with the same/a similar problem? Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this?
Dont know if it matters, its an assus N-router.
Thank you
Have you tried to click "Add a wifi network" in the (empty) list of available networks to define SSID and security setting manually?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes i tried that allready, it still tells me it is not in range.
Dont know if it helps the wireless is 2.4 and 5 GHz
Just put Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 custom v2 on my phone and still have the same problem?
Any guesses?
Check if u can detect other wifi networks wit ur fone if not try a different rom,since u want something as stable as else's try herodeck...
If it does detect other wifi networks,check if ur home wifi is hidden or reset it...

I have the same ROM and I don't have any problems with wi-fi. Maybe there is an issue with the 802.11n compatibility. Are you able to force the AP into b/g mode?
Same Problem
i had the same problem so adjusted router to use B/G mode only and works fine now
maybe your WiFi is on one of the odd japanes channels 52 or so, make sure your choose something between channel1 and 11 in the 2,4Ghz Band
Thank you for all the replies!!
It got fixed!!
Didnt have to change from N to b/g
But tried Taknil's solution and changed channel from auto to somewhere between 1 and 11 in the 2.4 Ghz band (router went up to 13)
Works like a charm!!
Thank you all!
It happened to me to.
I've to give up the mod for now.
I have looked around and have found no solution for this.
Hi everyone, I have recently bought an xperia mini pro and I love this phone, I really fell in love with it.
But, I cant seem to get stable wifi connections, the connections keep disappearing or in one second the conection is strong and then becomes to weak.
Also, I cant connect to my home internet!
My SSID doesn't even appear on the list of available networks!
This seems to be a recurrent problem because I switched the phone for a new one and the problem prevails.
I know its not the router cause I could connect with my old phone with no problems at all. I tried wifi keep alive and other stability apps but with no success...
The phone is updated to Android 2.3.4.
Can anyone help please??
If anyone has the solution it must be you guys!
Thank you!
about the ssid, i had that problem on my home. i change and add the mac adress of my sk17a to the router and that fix the problem. try that.
Hi everybody,
first of all I have to say that the ICS-upgrade for XP was worth the waiting. It is super and many things improved. Especially battery life and the sound went better. ..
But here comes my problem:
When I connect the phone via wifi to my Fritz!Box 7390 (WPA2) I can use the network for a few seconds, but then it crashes. When I make an AP to the box with another router or a computer I can use the network normally, but I cant download anything from the Play Store. It just stucks at downloading. Browsing is ok. Sounds strange does it?
Upnp is enabled and I also tryed to forward the needed ports manually with no sucess. Of course the box has the newest firmware.
Do you have any idea?
Same problem with my Xperia P and FritzBox 7230 - tested it with WPA security and everything is fine for the moment. Can you give this a try? I´m not sure about that problem, maybe it is FritzBox related thing?

Yes, I just tryed that. It works, but when I switch to WPA I can't acess internet from my laptop anymore. Same problem with my gf's laptop. I also guess that this problem is related to the box. I 'll write an email to AVM. When I got new infos, I'm gonna post it here (assuming that collosus won't delete this thread )
I have the same issue with a FritzBox 7340. But it's firmware almost identical to the 7390. I'll test some stuff later today and report back.
Xperia P + Fritz Box
Hi Guys,
I also updated my Xperia P and started to have trouble with my Fritz Box Wireless (7340).
The problem described above seems the same as I concluded.
Does anyone have an update on this?
One strange thing, my wife also has a Xperia P and that one doesn't seem to f**k up the Wlan.
The same with Xperia U + ICS + Fritz!Box 7390

My Xperia U worked flawlessly with Ginger Bread over my Fritz!Box
Immediately after updating I got problemcs with the WiFi network and not only the mobile but the rest of the devices using WiFi were disconnected.
If the problem was on the side of the phone, in any circumstances it should freeze the network
Image that it could be possibe to block a WiFi network just turning on a buggy phone.
There must be something wrong with the Fritz!Box...
I had the same problem with the 6.1.1.B.1.10 on the Xperia U
It's an often recurring problem with this version of the firmware.
The solution was turning of 802.11n and only leave 802.11b+g enabled on the FritzBox
Some other people have had success with changing the security mode from WPA2 to something else
I solved it through opening a guest network on the Fritz!Box. It is secured with WPA. Found no other way.
Interesting test with a second Fritz!box
I have connected a second Fritz!Box 7570 to the first causing the problem ( Fritz!Box 7390).
They are connected in cascade: The 7570 has DSL, DHCP and NAT disabled and its IP address is in the range of the first one (7390) and it is connected to an ethernet port of the other one
I can connect now my Xperia to the 7570 wireless network and everything seems to work so far.
If I connect instead to the 7390 WiFi it freezes it
