Hi all, I am having some issues with my Z3s mobile data switch. If I have mobile data on and then activate my wifi, the mobiles data 3g icon disappears, which I had assumed is normal because wifi trumps data.
After I turn wifi off, the data connection icon does not come back and i have no internet access. When I go to settings to reactivate the data connection, it says it is already on. I have to shut it off/turn it on manually 3 or 4 times before it reconnects... and it seems like it takes a really long time to reconnect too.
Any thoughts?
1. Try to reinstall the internet and mms settings under settings, Wireless and networks, Internet Settings.
2. Try under settings, Wireless and networks, mobile networks, prefered network mode, select any of the non LTE/4G options.
3 .If either of those don't work, then try under settings, Wireless and networks, mobile networks, then network operator, then select your network provider from the list, then do each of the previous step 2 then step 1.
If that still doesn't work take the sim back and get it checked out by your provider, or request a new one.

Thanks for this. Apparently it matters in which order you do things with this phone so when I set it up before installing the sim it messed it up. I reset the phone back to factory defaults but this time with the sim card in it and it now works a lot better--though switching between wifi and mobile data is rather slow, at least compared to my One M8.
hmm, shouldn't do I haven't noticed that previously, I would be wary of your sim card.
I have the same issue on my Z3 Compact. Is there no other way than a factory reset? I'm rooted btw
Try turning off Stamina mode
I've had the same or similar issue with the T-Mobile version of the Z3 (D6616). For my phone, I've noticed that it is Stamina mode that is causing this issue. Another post described a similar issue and the way to resolve it was to clear the data and cache on the "Extended Standby mode controller" app/process. Note however that this causes all the stamina settings to be reset such as the apps active in standby. Eventually though this didn't work any more so I decided to turn off Stamina mode altogether. So far, the Wi-Fi to mobile data switching works flawlessly with Stamina mode off.
My feeling it has to do with an app/apps that affect this particular process. I had reset my phone and installed apps "slowly" (install one app, test, install another app, test, etc.) to see which app would cause this though could not pinpoint a particular app. I've experienced this issue with three Xperia Z3's (the first Z3 I had, the replacement Z3 due to a camera button issue, and my wife's Z3) so this has to be a software issue.
Another option is to put the phone in Airplane mode then take it out of airplane mode.
I have the same issue. Although it arises sporadically, I simply enable and disable Airplane mode when I'm out of wifi range if the phone fails to catch mobile data.

You can leave STAMINA mode on (under Power management), however...... only enable the "Extended Standby" option and of course Activation should be at 100%/Always on. When Wi-Fi is on, you must also have whitelisted 2 specific apps in STAMINA under the "Apps active in standby" list: The text msg app you're using (i.e. Textra, etc) and I would also whitelist one under "All others" entitled "Phone/Messaging Storage". Again, this is only for when you have Wi-Fi on. Keep the other stuff disabled in here. With regards to STAMINA mode.......
First, put Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep to "Only when plugged in" (Settings, Wi-Fi, Advanced). Also, make sure everything else on that page is unchecked/disabled. Turn off STAMINA mode. Go into Settings, Apps, All, Extended Standby Mode Controller, Clear Data AND Cache. Then go to your text app's (Textra, etc) "App info" page (on same Apps "All" screen) and clear ONLY the cache, then close out the app itself (3D button to the right of the virtual Home button, swipe the text app off the screen). Reset. When you come back, follow what I said above, including turning STAMINA mode back on (note the removal of having to leave "queue background data" off.) Make sure that when you turn STAMINA mode on that the pop-up shows up describing it. If it doesn't at any point, then repeat this paragraph's instructions. What I just said here MAY resolve any lingering MMS issues, and also resolve any issues regarding with STAMINA mode not kicking in too. When I did this my phone spit out a few "missed" incoming MMS messages out all at once. And the battery seems to be last longer too.
It seems that MMS messages will def show up if Wi-Fi is on, but it will take longer to show up if screen is off. Maybe 3-5 minutes longer.

Hi Folks,
Here's a very bad issue that I'm facing after the Lollipop update on my HTC One E8 Dual SIM.
My usage:
SIM1: Reliance CDMA
SIM2: Airtel GSM
If I put the phone to Airplane mode or restart, the phone just fails to get the internet data.
The Ev symbol also doesn't show up.
The only way to get thru it is to go to the Dual SIM Manager -> Turn off SIM 1 -> Turn On again.
Now it gets the Ev working.
Is there a permanent fix to this issue?
hi guys eeven Im facing the same issue. aftr updating to lolipop cdma data connection stop workin if you switch off or in airplane mode. it used to start working after 15 - 20 by its own. now for last two weeks data is not getting on at all. I hav 2 take off my sim nd put in another fone nd put it back nd wait.... it turns on by its own don't know when it gets data on. 3hrs 4hrs 6hrs no idea. pls help me.
The issue is now fixed with the newest update (2.33.720.4) sent by HTC.

Hi guys.
Just trying to share my observation and explore if we can do anything.
I am using D6683 (I think it is support to be a HK based handset). Using Lollipop, it has been working perfectly but 16GB not enough hence MM function that allow SD card and Internal memory merge is appreciated.
Since Sony decide to ditch us using D6683, the only option is using D6633.
1. Try using MM .575, it has huge connection problem. The phone will just stay in GPRS mode even connected to a LTE network. Driving from one point to another point, will just cause it to data connection to hang. Putting it in airplane mode and anything else won't work. Only reboot works
2. Restore stock and upgrade to .291, first day testing seem to be ok. Got LTE connection. It did try to swing a bit but it has been maintaining well. This i started driving with Waze. Connection start to go haywire, but it will be still try to reconnect. Data are "maintained" to certain extend. Let the phone along for about 2 days, the next thing I realize, only GPRS left. The signal logo got no more H, H+ or LTE. Check the phone service menu and all info confirm the LTE is available. Again a reboot fix the problem.
3. Change the setting to only WCDMA + GPRS. The phone was "perfect". No data hang issue and etc
Need all the sifu help. Assuming if the phone is rooted, how is the phone determine the connection method? I presume that the phone will initialize the modem to dial the connection. Can anyone share anything that we can probably trigger a redial and probably eventually inject into the phone data connection sequence. Again using Lollipop, there is no issue.
Appreciate any comments/advice.

Hi,
I'm using a Sony Xperia Z5 Dual Android 7.0 facing that issue making me unable to use my WLAN hotspot (which it pretty anoying cause it doesn't only dissallow me to share my internet connection but also I can't do other network stuff between devices I'd use that hotspot for).
So when I try to turn on my the hotspot it simply turns itself off again after small amount of seconds. When I got to WLAN hotspot in settings then I have the active button to switch the hotspot on while it shows me tbat it's of at the moment. Doing that it says "Activating hotspot..." (pretty exactly that) until it's going off again with a quick "Deactivating hotspot" and you could activate it again but it will do nothing again than say "activating" and go off again. While it is "activating" it already shows the active hotspot icon in the top bar of the phone and the hotspot settings are as well already active and no more inactive greyed out. But only for nk idea, 3 seconds probably. Within that short period of time my laptop didn't find my phones hotspot but that might just be down to an to high delay in scanning and finding so I don't know wether it would shortly pop up seeable for other devices.
Earlier that day I had my hotspot working actively (nobody actually joined) but it worked and would have if somebody joined because that issues is not new to me on my phone and when the hotspot activates, then it also works. But half of the time it seems when I want to use it, it doesn't work. I haven't changed any settings inbetween or restarted my phone. It was probably on for one week, but after then trying a restart it still didn't help.
I already changing some one-click stuff like just turning out WLAN, turning off or on data save mode (which stops background data for all apps in mobile internet and WLANs marked as hotspots), turning off or on mobile data. But well, I don't know anything else and earlier it worked with all the same settings so what could be the problem behind that?? Besides that my phone always just works completely normally without any issues, WLAN always works without problems, only Bluetooth sometimes doesn't want to activate and then I see it active after some minutes or hours later, but that can always be fixed with a restart if I needed it instantly. If you just wait and it is active then tough, it is kinda awoken and works instantly then again shutting it off and on.
Phone is not rooted btw.
Ok long text, but please if you have any ideas tell me..

Hello,
I'm seeking for your help guys. Let met explain : each time my Mi10 ultra lost data connection (in the underground or parking or whatever) it cant get back 4g/5g until i restart the phone.
Turning data on/off doesn't help.
Turning airplane mode on/off doesn't help.
Only restart gives the phone data again.
Can any one help fix this ? Otherwise any app/workaround to get back data without restarting the phone.
Thanks a lot
