How to make cellular work even when wifi is on? - E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I bought motoe 2015, I found that when I connect to wifi without network connection, my cellular continued working. It was like Apple's wifi assist. But when I upgraded from 5.0.2 to 6.0 this feature is no longer here. Does anyone know how to get it back??

Thanks a lot buddy!)

Xperia S on Tmobile USA

I know that the Xperia S 3G cannot work on Tmboile but I am stuck in a 2 year contract with them that started fairly recently (due to certain family ciorcumstance).
I was wondering if there were some work arounds to get 3G speeds on the phone via Tmboile?
Is there a rom I can download or software that will enable my phone to work with Tmboile's 3g network? Perhaps some type of bootloader?
If not, what about wifi hotspots? Can I by a wifi hotspot and take it with me wherever i go in order to accesss the internet on my xperia via Tmobile? If so, how much does a wifi hotspot cost, and is it a monthly plan?
Would 2G work on the phone with Tmboile? If so, can I still stay connected to the internet 24/7 and get RSS feeds, news, surf the web, emails, etc etc by using the broweser on the Xperia S? Do i need a data plan to make 2G work via Tmboile?
Your help is very appreciated.

From what I understand, the Xperia S will not work on T-Mobile's 3G but 2G only.
However, AT&T 3G seems to work on this device with some tweaks (which I have no idea what to do).
I also have T-Mobile and I absolutely love the S' design. I might have to move to AT&T...

Tethering not working on AT&T

Hey guys,
I recently bought a Refurbished unlocked SM-G900T to use with my AT&T service. I chose the T-Mobile variant because of the faster android updates and unlocked bootloader. So far, It's been working great, no problems at all with voice, data, etc. The first thing I did when I got it was install the rooted stock OF6 rom Muniz_ri posted, then ran the "extreme debloat" script. Well, I tried to use tethering and it's acting really funny. I can enable tethering fine, and it works for about 1 minute, then it stops working. The connected devices drop to 1mbps connection strength (from the usual 130+mbps wireless N speeds) and have zero network connectivity. I tried the Tethering mod also posted on the rooted OF6 page, but it still does the same thing. PDANet+ also does the same thing. Anybody know what's going on? Wi-Fi works fine on the phone as a client.
Ok, so this only seems to happen when I connect a laptop which has an intel Wi-Fi chip in it. When I connect my iPad to it, it works perfectly.
Alright, the fix was to go into the device manager on the laptop and set the wireless card to Wireless G-only. The issue seems to be resolved by doing this.

Does stock 5.1 Lollipop or any custom rom help/fix with the Wi-fi issue?

Hi Guys
I'm on rooted stock Jellybean on a Z Tablet SGP321 , its all awesome barring the widely documented issue with Wifi, the Wifi being just about useless, disconnecting/losing signal every few minutes etc. Also for some reason recently it started not connecting with 3G/LTE, sees the sim and cellphone network but I get a yellow triangle notification error and "Selected network unavailable".
I'm happy as it is but I'd love to at least sort out the Wifi, does upgrading to stock 5.1 Lollipop or any of the available custom roms help the Wifi issue at all? Would hate to go to all the effort just to have the same rubbish Wifi after the upgrade
And in that vein has anyone come across anything to fix/help with the Xperia Z tablets wifi issues?

Wi-Fi was working good on my device since i bought it on all firmwares. On stock 5.1.1 never had any issues with wi-fi. Check your router wi-fi settings and channel. Cause many access point on one channel can cause endless drops of connection.
Also, try another SIM card.

I have tried 3 different good sims, all the same issue.
What can I check for on the router?
The router does work perfectly as it is with 4 other devices though.
This Wifi issue with teh Z tablet is widespread, have a look on the Sony forums, lots of unhappy customers .

I had the same issue on my laptop, constant wi-fi disconnects, even though signal quality was very good. I changed network channel, and it solved the issue.
Try updating firmware, as it also updates modem firmware. If it doesn't help, i suspect hardware problems with radio module.

Thanks for the input but I'm looking for concrete feedback vs anecdotal regarding the Wifi issue being resolved with firmware update, though I have seen people mention to try channel 6 to solve the WIfi issue, I will perhaps try that.
You did reply in the other thread with the correct firmware for my tablet for 5.1, its already rooted and if all goes well I'll update without wiping my data or apps so should be reasonably hassle free, I'm going to try that.

No wifi calling button on Galaxy a10e with AT&T chip

Hi all, my first time on this forum. I use consumer cellular and until last week, had the Tmoblie chip/network. Other than difficulty getting a signal in some places, the phone worked fine. The other day, I switched to the AT&T chip in hopes of getting a more consistent signal, but since installing this chip, I can no longer use wifi calling. In fact, the wifi calling option is no longer even on the options screen. All I show under Connections is Wifi, and Bluetooh. Nothing else. I've called Consumer Celluar and they haven't been able to figure it out. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
