[HELP] Need help, Xperia L not picking up any signal - Sony Xperia L

Hello everyone!
I've started playing a bit with my Xperia L as I use it now as my backup phone and wanted to customize it a bit (tried several roms, rooted it, installed a recovery, tried some more roms... )
I went back to stock rom recently because I wasn't sure I'd be able to use it with my smartwatch, but ever since I went back to stock my phone can't pick any signal from any network!! I tried several sims but to no avail... tried flashing another stock rom from xperifirm but no success either.... same thing when I tried through pc companion.
The phone is wotking fine each time EXCEPT for the network! also, I had troubles entering flash mode recently, no matter how long I would press the vol-down button
Any help would be greatly appreciated please~ would be a shame to trash this otherwise very good phone!
PS: excuse my English I'm not native ^^'

Do you have the same problem on custom ROMs?

No, I haven't unlocked the bootloader actually, so I didn't get to try custom roms. Really interested by serajr's roms though but I'd rather fix the issue with signal first

First try the SIM card on other phone
If it works put it back on your phone and check out if the IMEI is available
Type *#06# in dialer

Insert the sim card with a tiny piece of paper on top of it so it doesn't move. I had a similar problem and this fixed it.

Ok so the SIM card is working, tried it on another phone, no problem. I checked the IMEI after putting it back in the xperia L and it's available too.
Also, @stuckbootloader, tried your fix too but to no avail :/

Hello guys~ Any other idea?

I'm not sure why this is happening to you, there is a test rom on the wiki somewhere try flashing one of the test roms here sorry i cant help more,
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs
Go to the Comm Manager and make sure the Phone is turned On and Flight Mode is OFF
This has happened to me with a few ROMS.
wish it was that easy but no
When i bought my tytn 2 i had same problem .
try to go in SETTING/PERSONAL/PHONE
then select tags BAND in the bottom of screen.
Usually you'll find :
Select your network type = Auto
Select your GSM/UTMS band = Auto
Try to force this parameters according your mobile company .
then make a Network selection manually .
I hope this help you.
Ciao

tried that 2 nothing
The only other thing that helped when this happened to me was to flash the Original Shipped ROM.
i hate myself should of left your first one alone.... flash that old one and still the same..phones still not working
But even in a manual search didn't show any phone company?
I have the same signal problem here. I trying to get a AT&T Tilt to work here in Brazil. Tried all available ROMs and Radios. Tried every available configuration stteing on the phone (band, connection etc). Flashed the phone back to the original ROM(adn Rdaio) and NOTHING.
I still waiting a miracle from heaven!

You have a BAAAAAAAAD ROM flash....
Take a deep breath and relax. I suggest hard reset first then remove your SIM card and re-insert. make sure the cut out edge of the SIM is the out side not on the inserted side.
Make sure you have a ROM, and i would suggest one that does NOT have the radio cooked with it. It can be Dutty's or Sleuth. I recommend Sleuth's ROM for I find it more robust. Flash properly and you will have your phone back.
BTW... remove your SD ( Memory Card ) before you start the flash.
Good luck.

[Q] MIUI compatible baseband for LG G2x

How to know what baseband is compatible with MIUI rom? I have tried to install MIUI roms, but internet not working. MIUI baseband version is similar to stock 2.3.3 baseband. Maybe updating baseband to compatible with MIUI is help?
It should work right away. Have you tried doing a hard reboot by holding volume up and power button while your phone is on?
Or try putting it go airplane mode, reboot, then take off airplane mode.
Thank you for your reply.
Yes I`ve tried hard reboot and airplane mode. Nothing changes.
You might need to add your pan. Not sure on how to do it for different carriers though.

If you had the wrong baseband you wouldn't have service at all, not just data.
If your APN is fine, try removing the battery while the phone is on, then the SIM card, wait about 20 seconds, then put them back in and turn your phone on. Flashing custom roms sometimes messes up your network, and the above procedure worked for me.

[Q] Strange problem with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Wireless tethering

Lately, I'm experiencing a lot of problems with my Xperia L. For one, when I turn on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, the phone just hangs for about five minutes before finally activating them. The same case applies to when I activate a wireless hotspot on my device. When I tap on 'enable wireless tethering', the phone completely hangs. This has really started getting on my nerves! :crying:
Also, when I capture multiple photos from my camera, I'm finding that some images are automatically rotated. I have to manually rotate them, which, of course, is no child's play.
Another issue that I'm facing is that the phone's gotten a bit unresponsive. It doesn't fire up applications like it previously did (not that I have many apps installed too. Just 4).
All this has got me thinking, was the Xperia L a waste of money? No firmware upgrades coupled with tons of bugs!
Should I risk it and go for a custom ROM? I really need some advice, fellow users! Please reply as soon as possible! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

It seems like you are on Stock ROM. If you have not done it already, try do a factory reset i know its not an easy task but it may bring your happy days back. If you are not a big Fan of Sony UI you can try Many KitKat ROMS that are available updated with Latest sources 4.4.4.
Very soon we might have almost Bug Free KitKat Custom ROM's, Its your wish to Flash a Custom ROM. (Losing Warranty)
WIFI + Bluetooth not working even after Kitkat cm11 rom

I Also have this problem with WIFI and Bluetooth. Cant switch em on. I was on 4.2.2 update...
At first WIFI & BT are fine. About 2 weeks ago it starts restarting. When I'm lucky enough to reach inside the Setting and use phone for sometime, I tried to turn on wifi... Phone hangs... then restart.. Sometimes it takes several "auto" restart before i can operate the phone. But after those, everytime I turn on WIFI.. it hang/restart. Also happen w/ bluetooth.
I tried flashing/downgrade to 4.1.2 stock rom w/ flashtool. The restarting stopped/fixed... BUT, there's no way I can turn on wifi. i keeps switched off everytime i tried.
Finally, I installed CM11 kitkat cw. Everything looks new and fine ans smooth.. BUT... still cannot switch on wifi! and bluetooth!! >.<
I dont know what to do. Is this a hardware problem?? or is there a fix/zip i can flash to fix this??
HELP.

15.3.A.1.14 or higher. Always flash the latest firmware if possible.

I resolved the issue! It's going to sound extremely silly, but it worked wonders for me.
Basically, I deleted all downloaded apps that require a 'Full internet access' permission (The one with the WiFi icon), and viola! WiFi and Bluetooth work wonders now. I noticed this problem when I uninstalled Cleaner Master, and WiFi and Bluetooth jumped to life.
This is, however, a major setback. I can now download only a limited number of apps..
But hey, at least WiFi and Bluetooth work, so I've got that going, which is nice...
Any reasons why this may be happening guys?

You should perform a clean install of latest stock ftf. Looks like there's a problem with your kernel too. So flashing will put a new life to your phone. Remember to do clean install of firmware including kernel and wipe data alongwith resetting customizations.

[Q] Xperia J Emergency Calls Only

Hello
I own an Xperia J with an unlocked bl and have flashed many roms on it. Yesterday, the phone started to not want to connect to the internet (mobile data not WiFi) so I found this curious and rebooted the phone and tried re-downloading internet settings but nothing fixed it. I factory reset the ROM (not the phone) but now I couldn't even make calls/texts as the phone was stating 'Emergency Calls Only' and after going through the phones first boot setup, a window popped up saying the phone could not connect to the SIM. In the end, I changed roms (running Doomsday ROM at the time of the error's start) but still the same issue. Tried CM, same issue. Now on stock JB and the problem still consists. I can't really afford a new phone at the current time and my Z1 is being borrowed by my dad. Any help would be much appreciated.

No signal issue (maybe wrong baseband?)

Hi guys, I get a mate 7 bought on amazon warehouse deals!
It detects signal after 10 minutes and let me send a couple of sms... but after a pair of minutes it starts to lose signal again for about 5 minutes... So where is the problem? Sims are working on other phone, I wipe everything 3 times, but still haven't a solution... Please tell me there is something I'm missing, I don't want to send it back....
try 2g or 3g/2g mode of network, I had similar issue with KitKat 4g enabled, it wasnt so on Lollipop with 4g. Well, now my phone doesnt see sim card at all and after trying to return to KitKat I've got a soft brick, so, be careful
