Help please

If you have a WiFi permanently disabled or very weak, try to do it:

  1. Open the file /system/etc/firmware/wlan/prima/WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini in text editor.
  2. Change the line gEnableBmps = 1 to gEnableBmps = 0
  3. Save and reboot

This increases the stability of the WiFi and fixes WiFi from regular stops.

I´ve the same issue, i´m root and have root explorer 2 13.3 when i enter in the text editor (previously send the R/W in R/O so i can modify archives) i modify the lines you said and then save an exit, reboot the phone and when i check the lines it go back to 1 instead 0, please tell what i´m missing?

Hi @ll!!. This is my own solution for fixing WiFi range, drops & performance. With these tweaks I have reduced at all drops, and increased the range and performance significantly (absolutely no battery drains...).

2 files:
  • /system/etc/firmware/wlan/prima/WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini
    You must change: at line 76 by your proper value (see your original file)

  • /system/build.prop
    You must add this content to the end of your own build.prop

And then reboot & enjoy ;)

(Tested on .257, but should work in any 4.1.2)

how can i find this file in my phone?

    I found in Xperia z forum that changing the last parameter (before end) to

    ConnectivityThresholdDBM=-100

    Works without battery drain.
    I tried it on SP and haven't had any drop or drain since then. :)

    The file is read only.
    How can i edit and save it?

    Mount /sytem as rw in RootExplorer or in some others file managers that support root.
