Hello
Each time when I back from custom rom to MIUI Global Version I have two problems:
1. Line defect on the bottom of screen. It appears randomly, not each time.
2. Usually I have set that data connection turn off after 5 minuts of screen off. Later when screen is on data connection should return. Problem is that often it is not turn on again fast. Sometimes it takes one minute, or I should press data button to activate it.
Both problems are on all type of MIUI (dev, stable, even xiaomi.eu). So I thought it is some problem with hardware, but on custom roms everything is ok. Does anyone have idea what could happen and how to fix it ?
Here's the picure of line defect:

That bottom line thing in the status bar has been there for a long time. It appears after a reboot and disappears after some time, so not much of an issue.
But yeah, mobile data seems to be seriously messed up in MIUI now. Sometimes it just doesn't turn on, and I've toggle airplane mode a few times to get it work. Internet browsing speeds that I'm getting are terrible, more so when using WiFi. When downloading some large file or so, the speed picks up and seems to be ok, but browsing is terribly slow. Also, even though 4G signal strength is very good in my area, it sometimes unnecessarily jumps back to 3G in MIUI.
Custom ROMs don't seem to have these problems and data is fine. So, it's not related to firmware I guess.

I'm having some strange 3g hiccups lately. I'll elaborate.
sometimes while browsing etc the phone will hang on 3g connections (eg does not even resolve DNS). the data connection icon keeps cycling the 3g and H symbols; at each new symbol switch the upload and download arrows seem to 'do something' for some instants then they fail and start the cycle all over again. I don't even seem to find a way to resolve the issue as putting the phone in airplane mode for some time does not help, and neither disabling 3g networks for a couple minutes. I also tried a reboot which did not help. The only working solution seems to be patiently wait till it works again.
I would not swear on this but I think this issue started when I flashed stock 360. I am however 100% sure that this was not happening, say, a couple months ago.
I am not even sure there is a problem with the phone, there might as well be some problems with the carrier.
anyone experienced anything similar?

Hi, I'm currently using ICS Passion v10.6. I do not have a data plan, but am always connected to wifi at my house (router is usually about 3 feet from my phone).
Often my phone will lose google connectivity (wifi and signal bars will go gray), and often, usually when i leave my phone untouched for a while and then check it, i will notice that wifi had been lost and it does not reconnect until i turn the screen back on. I have the wifi sleep policy set to never sleep (keep wifi on: always), and the battery info says that the wifi is constantly on.
I was wondering if a different modem would help or if it is a bug in the rom itself or the kernel? My wifi and google connections would constantly be on 24/7 when I was running bionix v1.3.1. I've tried flashing the KB1 modem which bionix uses, but i get the same result.
Thanks for any help
Hey Devils,
I've had some of the same issues, aslo using 10.6. If I leave my phone alone for a bit it seems to stop getting notifications from data. The best example of this is I use Trillian IM and I can be chatting on it. Finish. And put it aside for awhile and not get any notifications and then when I hit the power button all of a sudden I've got 30 IMs waiting for me.
I have tried several different Vibrant ICS modems from this thread but they all caused big issues for me. some caused massive power drain but all of them caused my lock screen be unresponsive when I hit the power button and I'd have to wait for the screen to blink out and hit the power button again to be able to get access. The same would happen when I get a phone call, sometimes the screen just would not respond when it lit up for an incoming call. I think it was because it would start searching for data connectivity (so it seems related to the problem which makes me think it's not modem related)
In the end, I went back to the KB5 modem and my screen issues seem to have resolved. I may try Passion 11 soon and I'll post results if it helps, but right now I'm not ready to do another change on my phone.
-update- I just checked and saw that v12 is out now and has both a kernel update and an update to wifi. I'll probably try that tonight.
-update- I think this might be being caused by "Deep Sleep" causing the phone to shut down it's data antennas to turn of to save battery. I've installed "NStools" on my phone and set it to set the min CPU freq. to 200mhz to see if that will prevent deep sleep. I'm not certain this tool will work 100% on this build, but we'll see I guess.
I'm also running the Vibrant without data, using wifi to do things with the internet.
Since flashing ICS I haven't had any wifi issues on the two networks that I've used. Seems odd that you are now having them. Have you tried a different hotspot?
I have had issues sending text messages. I can place and receive calls, receive texts but can't send any. Have you had any of these issues? I'm curious if it has to do with the lack of data plan.
I have had my Xperia P for about a week, and I've noticed on multiple occasions that the signal notification fluctuates quite often. It goes from 0 bars to 4 or 5 and back to zero quite a bit.
Also it tends to not receive data via mobile connection unless you go into airplane mode and go back to mobile data.
This is not a "death grip" issue because it will do this on the table even.
Any thoughts?
it gets kind of annoying.
I'm probably stating the obvious, but have you tried a reboot / other phones?
My Xperia also shows some fluctuation in the signal strength, but no different than for instance my old HTC Hero. However, I never have to go into airplane mode or anything to receive data.
Hey,
Im having kind of the same problem with my Xperia S. When I set the data trafic on, the "3g" sign on the very top of the screen pops up, but dissapears after just 1 second and I dont get any internet connection. The phone has done this before, but then the connection comes back after 10 seconds or so, but now its been gone for 2 days. I know I have full coverage where I am, so its not that.
I've tried and turn the phone off and on again but it didn't help. I have also tried turning data off and on again but nothing seems to help. Is anyone having the same issue as me?
Please help!!
Also going via airplane mode
Hi!
Having exactly the same issues as brdl04. Going via airplane mode is needed like twice a week.
Using Xperia P with firmware 6.0.B.1.564, Swedish operator Telenor.
Wondering if this is limited to specific apps/situations, as I mostly (and nearly always) need to activate/deactivate airplane mode when I need Spotify in online mode. Other apps seem to work fine, sometimes.
I hope Sony will release minor updates too. Seems like they are fully focussing on ICS. Looking forward to it.

Hello, folks!
I have a rooted I9100 (Android 4.0.3 stock from Vivo, baseband I9100VILP3, kernel 3.0.15-I9100VJLP7-CL371396 [email protected] #3, compilation IML74K.VJLP7, CSC I9100UVILP3).
Sometimes I have problems turning on WiFi, it keeps always turning on and neither become active nor allow me to turn it off again. I then need to reboot phone to fix it (when it reboots, WiFi comes turned on and gets on normally).
Another problem I have with it is that sometimes (average of 4 - 5 times a day) phone loses registration with carrier. It completely loses* signal and shows a "prohibited" icon where signal strength is shown at status bar. (Edit) Sometimes it comes back again in a few seconds and sometimes it stays at that state, making me have to reboot it to fix the problem (turning on and off airplane mode doesn't work; in fact, with registration lost and trying to use airplane mode, it doesn't turn off and only fixes with reboot).
*Actually, it doesn't lose signal (can be seen in "settings - about phone - state" screen uploaded), but only unregisters from carrier.
(Edit: screen/phone language is Brazilian Portuguese)
I've downloaded another modem driver but never had time to test it.
I don't know if both problems can have the same cause, but both of them are very annoying (especially signal loss) and I'd like to make some tries to fix them, so if anyone knows what can I do (even data collection to investigate them), your help is very appreciated.
Thanks
Additional test (ServiceMode)
When I was in the forum to post this thread, I've noticed this other thread and I've decided to use ServiceMode code (*#0011#) to investigate further at the next time my cell lose signal. Unfortunately, it showed absolutely nothing. Literally nothing (just "ServiceMode" caption and no text on the screen below).
I just spent the time to post this because I know that, even if it has shown no information (on screen), maybe it still can be a clue for the cause of the problem.
Thanks
Pls help!
Does anyone have some light to shed on this case?
Please, I do really need to fix it, at least the signal loss problem.
Thanks.
Same Issue in the US on Tmobile
Mine started doing this just a day or two ago. Exact same issue. I can kind of operate on the EDGE network but 4G fails, only WiFi seems to work. T-mobile doesn't seem to have a fix for it.
Changed to MIUI
I've just changed to MIUI (reflashed modem also – now it is ZSLPE instead of previous VILP3).
I still have issues with carrier register loss, but until now it always reconnected after a few seconds. Maybe it is a carrier issue and not a phone one.
I don't turn on WiFi a lot, but all times I've tested it, it worked well.
Another thing I've noticed with this change is that battery temperature while charging used to reach 48°C (118°F) or even 50°C (122°F) while battery level was low (less than 50%), but now it stayed around 35°C (95°F), which is completely acceptable.
I'm having random connection drops on the latest EU build. I tried reflashing the ROM, installing akhilnarang's vendor, changing kernels buy still no solution.
The phone will work well but suddenly lose mobile data (4G) connection for a few seconds and then come back. I noticed the VoLTE icon also disappears with it and then comes back but the network signal lines (on the status bar) show full signal the whole time.
Also, I'll suddenly drop a call sometimes and this is accompanied by the network signal lines disappearing (implying loss of network signal) and then coming back in a few seconds.
I have a very good signal from my carrier so that's not the problem. Also, the phone seems to work well for sometime (few hours) after a restart and then this "bug" comes back and I can't find any kind of solution to this.
This problem started to arise after I flashed the latest EU android Q build.
This bug is annoying and frustrating especially while playing online games.
Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Many problems after Android 10 update
I have the same problem after updating my smartphone to Android 10, with no solution !
While i'm using data connection, i don't receive all the notifications in time.
I'm facing another weird problem which is the phone does a fast reboot after that it freezes for some seconds.
Same Ish
Same issue here, when streaming or downloading, my wi-fi or data connection will randomly drop and wont reconnect unles i reboot. Then will drop again once i start to download or stream. My other phones or laptop no issue.
Connections are good, as im writing this am streaming on my laptop but my poco refuses to connect to our wi-fi. Issue only popped up after the latest update
