Connecting Raspberry Pi Zero W to Xperia X tethered wlan

Hi all, I am trying to get my Raspberry Pi Zero W to the same wifi network with my XperiaX currently with no success. I have tested the combination with my home wlan router with a success. I can ssh all the devices(Ubuntu laptop, XperiaX and Raspberry Pi Zero) in the domain 192.168.1.. When using my XperiaX as a router by tethering, Ubuntu laptop and XperiaX are in the same domain 172.28.172. but Raspberry Pi Zero not.

The Raspberry wpa_supplicant.conf file includes both networks with Xperia network with a higher priority. The raspberry always connects to the lower priority home wlan network. If I switch my home wlan router off, raspberry waits for a long time and starts a login prompt with no network connection.

When analysing the networks, XperiaX seemed to be on the channel 1 and home wlan on the channel 2. The signal of XperiaX network was weaker than home wlan signal.

Has anybody succeeded to connect the devices like that way? I would be appreciated to get that info to continue my efforts or stop dreaming.
