Hi all,

First up, who here is using a Sony Xperia device on Skinny? Which model? Do you have issues with signal or drop outs?

I've seen two devices, an Xperia Z3 Compact, and an Xperia Z5 Compact both which are supplied by spark. Both have been used with Spark sim cards in the past, without fail. Both are fully updated.

However when you swap these devices to skinny, you suddenly get odd behaviour. Dropping of signal entirely, especially when there's no open data session or voice call active. This means making or receiving a call is like rolling the dice as to whether it will connect. Because there's no open data session, it's worse when on WiFi. It's mostly fine if you're on mobile data, but this is hardly ideal.

It can be observed on the device as showing full signal, and then none, with the blank bars and no service showing on androids status. Signal goes from say, -70 RSSI to No Signal. And then it'll reconnect to the network, and repeat.

Each device is more than a generation apart, and each is used at either end of the country from eachother, but both have the same problem. The sim card has been used in a motorola and LG phone respectively with no issues. So i'm wondering, if there's commonality between basebands of these devices (slim chance), perhaps there's an incompatibility problem with the baseband? Just a theory at least.

Thoughts?
