Sony Xperia XA1: Cannot make/receive calls on 3G even though it shows signal

Wed, 02 Dec 2020 00:00:09 -0700

I have received a xperia phone (Xperia XA1 G3121) with following problem which I want to try and resolve: While having a SIM I can make calls and have mobile data as long as I have 4G or H+ indicator on the top right corner.

https://ibb.co/3YwFKVB

In areas where those are unavailable (I get 3G and bars indicator) I cannot make calls nor have mobile data connection.

https://ibb.co/xYRzhnc

While searching the internet I came to find videos about replacing antenna cables. After removing the back I found 2 such cables (black and white):

https://ibb.co/cDg9bt5

I replaced the cables thinking that might solve the problem without any success. In youtube videos I saw variant with only 1 cable and 2 cables. My intuition was that the black one is for 3G since disconnecting the other disabled my 4G signal. Given that on some networks I have data and tone and on older generation frequencies I don't I came here seeking some advice. What can I try to isolate the problem?

Later Edit:

I have replaced the bottom daughterboard earlier because another defect with it was that it would not charge. At that point I did not try 3G or below calls because I couldn’t imagine not working after doing a normal call as a test. The previous daughterboard was thrown as a results. Should I suspect a flaw with the new daughetboard ? Any way to check it other than trying another replacement ?

Any help you can shed is appreciated, thank-you

My phone was perfectly fine and all of a sudden the screen wouldn’t turn on. Every time I press the power button or the sensor it doesn’t turn on.

Sony Xperia XA: How to tighten the phone screen for my Sony Xperia XA2

Fri, 26 Apr 2019 11:14:05 -0700

I had a screen replacement a while ago and everything worked fine, but after a while my back camera had to be pressed at the top to work/provide the image. I believe the glue to secure the screen has become a little bit weak, and I was wondering what glue I would need to tighten the screen and how to open it up and glue it back up.
