Hello friends I have been having this problem for some time now. When I am in some locations, my phone loses signal totally or falls drastically to one bar and I cant make calls nor use the Internet. I have tried troubleshooting with different sim cards, booted into safe mode but this problem persists. Its killing me guys, I need help, I had been working perfectly before until about 2 weeks ago.
Picture of how the network falls totally off
Reflash it using flashtool

Hello,
I updated my Xperia L to 2.17 yesterday,and today,about a few hours ago,my phone lost all signal.
How it happened was weird though-
I first noticed this when i tried to make a call and it wouldn't go through.At that time,the signal bars were full.
Then,i tried to send a text message.Same issue-not delivered,with the signal bars still full.
I thought it could be network issue and put the phone into airplane mode and out of,about 3-4 times.still the signal bars are full,but no call/message was going through.
Fed up,i rebooted the phone twice.Same status! .signal meter is showing full,but no calls/messages going through.
Then,after 5 minutes,the signal meter showed no signal-emergency calls only.
then,about half an hour,network came back up and i was able to use the phone as usual.
It couldnt be a provider issue as another phone with the same provider sim worked fine.I also had plenty of talk-time left so,its not an issue of that either.plus,i was in direct line of sight of multiple towers.
for some background-the sim is about 4 years old.plus,to get 3g working on my phone,i had to play with the settings a bit and it could only be activated after my service provider did some hocus-pocus.since then,i got fed up with their ridiculous prices and shifted back to 2g.
The same sim was in use in a hardy nokia1100 and then a Nokia 6020 till a month back,when i got the XL.and never have i faced such an issue before.
Is it a phone issue?I have attached a screenshot of the battery usage-it shows the network issue in red.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2177124&stc=1&d=1376067822
Initially,i neglected this in the battery page-this is not the first time the battery page shows network was dropped.it has happened multiple times before,only-this time,i saw it happen live when i was using the phone.so,its not a sudden issue and has been there for a bit of a while.
Another fault i noticed sometimes-when i receive a call-it drops off and i have to dial them back.
However,if i were to make the call,it works just fine.happens very rarely though.
so,do i change the sim or go to the service center?is it a radio/antenna issue?
Kindly advise,
Regards
Suraj
Sorry for bumping old thread. but i got same problem here.
also we are not along. https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-L/network-issue-with-xperia-L/td-p/405833
The signal of my Xperia L fall all time, what I do?
Im have the same problem, what I do? (this is the title)
Hi,
From past three days, signal is not showing up on the phone. And it only shows a red triangle with a white plus sign on it.(Emergency Calls Only)
I didnt do any changes to the phone, it just randomly started three days ago.
I am on Indian version of unlocked Motorola atrix 2 MB865.
I am on jellybean 4.1.2 for past many months. So I dont suspect the ROM.
I have tried using some other sims also.(It is NOT the problem of the Sim)
I usually get full signal at my place.
I have searched internet thoroughly and read almost all the threads related to this topic, but it didnt help me much.
Things I have tried till now.-->
- Swapped sims with many other phones.
- Installed the "Network" app and many other similar apps which was suggested in some other threads.
- Switched Flight mode on and off.
- Factory reset the phone.
- Kept it off for hours and then checked again.
- Prayed that it will get fixed soon
Q) Did you try turning it off and on again?
Ans) Yes..yes.. Many many times. Sometimes, after reboot it shows signal for 2-5 minutes, but I CANT make/receive any calls/sms(The call just drops two seconds after dialling)
PS:- I think that when I received the last call, I was listening music on my headset and I had received the call with the headset.
Thank You very much.

Baseband version is showing as 2012-0712 09:44 Off Blf LUD_EDISON_R1E_PATCH_36_120712_0920 ch1090280_M570_PC_CARD_RAINB
I have now found that it is due to very very poor reception.... For some reason, this phone's signal reception has drastically reduced.
I can get signal only if I go out, still the signal strength is shown at maximum -75dB and frequently dropping to -100dB. I was able to make one call and it dropped as soon as i entered inside the house.
(The same sim on other phones have full range even inside house)
What is the suggested solution?
Thanks

Seems to be a hardware issue then. Is your phone within warranty, by chance?
Nop it is not in warranty.

If you can't afford to help, then what's the point of this post?
Increasing post count I guess.
Might be a loose connection after a drop ?
Your best bet would be to dissamble the phone and assemble again. In the meantime check the connectors and others if they're in their place. There're good disassembly videos for atrix 2 in youtube.

K s h i t i j s, who is your network provider? EDIT: Just saw that you're on MTNL.
I have been having a similar problem for a similar length of time with my Atrix 2 and I'm on stock ICS. I got my sim replaced by Vodafone but the problem persisted so I asked the guy who originally sold it to me to get it checked out (warranty is long gone).
He mentioned that another customer of his with the same phone also developed the same problem around November or December 2013. Both that guy and I are on Vodafone, Mumbai.
In testing, his phone worked perfectly with an Airtel sim and mine worked perfectly with a borrowed IDEA sim. Both our sims work perfectly in other phones. Both were then sent to the official service centre but they essentially threw their hands up.
The coincidental timing of the problem for two (maybe three) phones of the same model leads one to think there must something with the network broadcasting? Could someone with better knowledge of the subject (mine is approximately nil) comment?
I have this problem with my Z3. I commute to school by train and every now and then I lose signal because of tunnels etc. But the phone is having a hard time recovering signal. Sometimes I have to reboot. Sometimes theres the red X on the SIM icon but usally it's just that there's good signal strenght but no data connection. Other times a reboot doesn't solve it instantly and I'll just have to wait. Or I have to go and manually select my carrier (Tele 2, Sweden) but it doesn't work all the time either. So there's no consistent fix.
Anyone else experiencing the same problem? On my way home 2 stops before mine there's a tunnel where you always lose reception and sometimes I can't even recover it before I get of the train 10 minutes later in an area where you normally have full reception.
I've got a D6603, rooted .77 (PRFCreator). The problem started occuring before rooting. Can't remember if it was before updating to .77 (Had .77, downgraded for root then upgraded again). Carrier is Tele 2 in Sweden.

I also have this issue, when I switch to CM12, the signal back. I don't know why my D5563 can't get data traffic from stock ROM :crying:
I have the same issue but with calls. If my signal is low and I try calling someone no one can hear me and it drops. I am on Telus, stock generic firmware. Going to try reinstalling it once the files finish redownloading.
Hello.
I bought this phone about an week ago, and after two days i noticed that i couldn´t make or receive phone calls, after a litte bit of research i noticed that the phone only has network signal on 4G areas and when i try to switch to 3g or 2g it takes a lot of time (about 2 minutes) or most of the time it doesn't get any signal.
I´ve already done 2 factory resets , switched the sim card and i still cant make calls.
Is there any way to solve this?, because if i activate the warranty it will take a lot of time to get my phone back.

Seems like manufacturing defect. I guess you would have already tried network mode and automatic search.
Hi!
A few weeks ago i lost my signal on my Z5. I decided to order a new antenna and changed it and the antenna-cable. The signal came back for a short while, but disappeared a few hours later. So I tried to flash new rom since the phone is rooted. I have tried UK/DE/SE/Global, but none is working.
No signal, and the sim detection is very slow e.g it takes like 5 minutes after restart to detect sim card. Xperia-software from PC not working since bootloader is unlocked.
Can someone help me?
Best regards
M
