location based WiFi not working

[dek4]

When I'm not at home I keep my xperia WiFi turned off. When I come home it doesn't turn automatically on even if I got my home WiFi registered on my phone! I always have to do that manually. Of course I have the option ON in "location based WiFi". Could somebody help me, please?

So did you disable stamina?

[dek4]

Yes, i never use stamina mode.

Can you check if the same occurs in safe mode?

I tried several times in safe mode but the result is always the same! It doesn't turn on and off! What should I do?

You may need to perform a software repair using PC companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.

Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).

Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).

That's really necessary? I purchased it only one week ago (Italy)

You could give it a try,see if the device doesn't have a hardware problem related to wifi.
