XDA11i - 2 second cut off problem / unlocking ??

Help!!!
trying to help my dad unlock his newly purchased secondhand spv m2000 /XDA11i, there seems to be a problem with the phone as the phone will appear to dial out but will not actually call out, just keeps displaying " dialling " the phone will on other occasions try to dial out but will be cut off after 2 seconds.
in the phones settings it shows the outgoing call as 0 hours, 0 mins, 2 seconds but this cannot be changed - is this relevant to the 2 second cut off problem ??
lastly hopefully if he can get the phone working he wants it unlocked to all networks, tried clicking on the relevant file download on this site but keeps comming up age unavailable - anyone know what happening and if the file is indeed still the required file ??
the code on his phone is " NM8 blueangel " is this okay to unlock with the aid off the unlocking download file off this site??
have suggested to him the phone may infact be blocked ?? would this be the cause off the above problems if this indeed was the case ??
any advice/ suggestions would certainly be much appreciatted.
Just been advised from dad that there apperas to be no network connection at all on this phone probably hence the reason it attempts to dial out but infact does not !!
is there possibly a setting that he may have adjusted that is caused this problem ?? really does both off us stumped !!
anyone any suggestions at all what could be wrong ??

Does anyone know what is going on on my device? please help~

I am using O2 XDA IIs, I just upgrade the ROM to TuMa V1.4, everything is all right exclude the phone. the device seems unable to search the service provider and keep on "searching mode" no matter I use which SIM card..........does any expert know what is going on on my device? seems that other have no problem with this ROM.....
re: Does anyone know what is going on on my device? please
I have the same problem.
I have the new 5.0 OS on an M1000 it worked fine on my orange sim for 3 days then it stoped connecting to my sp.
Also my callender dosn't load on the home screen and if you open it manualy I get and 'unexpected error has occurred in this program' error followed by a no 'program memory available...' error even if there are no programs running in the background with no extra media stored on the phone.
My contacts and phone features are also un accessable but I think this is to do with the lack of sp.
I have tryed hard and soft reasets, leaving the battery out for a bit and hitting it didn't help ether :wink: so any help would be appreciated!!!
{edit}
new one although I can't make calls and my phone is showing no survice I can send and receve text messages :shock:
now Im realy confused could I have deleated some software by mistake? if so were do I find this fix?

Same problem
Hi guys...I am quite new to the whole XDA thing...got a second hand XDA mini S, did a hard reset to start fresh. Trying to use it with Vodafone sim card though. Sim card seems ok, I can send and receive txt messages, but unable to make and receive calls, same problem...starts dialing and then shows 0.00 call ended, no signals, no beeps, nothing...tried with a headset, same stuff....I rang Vodafone to see if they can help with the call settings but they werent very helpful, as the phone is not one of theirs, they just said speak to O2, well I cant really as it is a second hand handset.
I was advice form Vodafone that perhaps the phone is locked to O2 and thats why it can't make any calls, but i can send and receive txt messages and the sim card is read as normal....i am quite confused. I have not tried to do any unlocking on the phone as the sim card seemed to work fine...Can anyone help....Can this be a result from the hard reset I've done..I read somewhere that other people were unable to make calls after hard reset.......
They maybe IMEI blocked, e.g. insurance claimed phone, stolen phone, etc. I think you can call them and see if the IMEI has been blocked. Search the forum, IMEI blocked issue have been discussed here.

Sorry for the stupid question but can you send me a link or directions how can I find a solutions to this IMEI blocked issue. Is there a software to unblock or change? Have not rang O2 to check, but I have the feeling that they will reffer me to the ebay seller.....as I am not a O2 customer, thats what they kind of said to me before.
You don't call O2.. just call your network service (Orange, T-Mobile, etc) providers, they may able to help you to check. Or just google for "IMEI block blacklist" for information.

If he can send and received text then its not IMEI barred, once a phone is IMEI bared you'll be unable to register with the network at all, and would look like the phone is SIM locked or just not getting signal.
It could be either, a bar on the network, low signal, or something weird with the SIM. Check the sim in another phone, if you can make calls its a hardware issue, if not then its a network issue
Thanks for the advice, sim card is working fine with other handsets, it's just a normal contract Voda sim card. Still can't get it to work with the XDA though. Did second hard reset and same stuff....can send/receive messages but canNOT make/receive calls. Does any one know if this may be result of the hard reset and is there any way of fixing it. If it is a hardware problem as suggested previously what is the way of sorting it out?
Me again...just tried it with O2 sim card....very strange...kept searching for the network for more than 10 min and nothing happened....had to turn it off at the end. 3 card don't work as well, same situation...searching for network....The Vodafone sim card seems to be the only one that gets full reception straight away but then again the problem with making calls remains...I have no idea what network the device was issued on before...
still cant get it to work tried all your ideas

[Q] HTC 7 Mozart cannot make/receive calls/sms messages

Hello! I don't know why but my phone started having this problem. It was out of nowhere. Well, maybe not, I've flashed my phone with the official mango update like two weeks ago, and it was working fine.
And today I saw that that I messages doesn't send out. I tried to call/text myself from other phone, and I couldn't. Phone displays gsm network name in phone hub, and also it shows full gsm connection bars(five of them), so you couldn't tell that something is wrong until you try to text or call. When you call the phone says "dialing..." but this shows forever and there's no sound from the speaker. It's worth mentioning that I've received few messages I've send to myself, but just about 2hours from sending, and then I tried to send a few more and haven't received those. Also, I've suceeded to call for a few times but after a long long wait(like at least 30sec) with the "dialing..." message shown. However, I cannot reach the phone when calling from my other phone.
I've tried to turn my phone on/off, to take the battery/sim card off, reseting the device, but none of these things helped. Then I've decided to flash my device. I've flashed my phone with DeepShining Mango custom ROM, and it seems to be working fine, but the problem still exists.
I don't know what else to do. And that's a major problem, because noone can call or text me. As I've said in the beginning, it was out of the sudden, I haven't done anything to my phone. Just yesterday I was using my phone normally, texted and called with no problem.
So I'm asking yours, guys, help. Could you please suggest what I could do? Thank you very much!
P.S. I've bought this phone from second hand and it was unlocked, but it has an orange logo on the battery cover, so I suppose it was locked to orange.
Did you pay your bill?
I have a prepaid card.
Ok, do you have a another SIM to test

Can't send SMS and Calls after 4.3 update

I saw a topic almost the same as mine but I don't really understand what they're all saying as I am an Android Noob.. I think my case is different because I upgraded my phone without using the leaked one..
I just upgraded my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 to 4.3 last Tuesday, 12/24/13 and today, I noticed that I can't send and receive SMS and Calls on my phone. I don't know if the problem is my phone or my sim card. I tried restarting the phone and reinserting the sim. I almost tried everything. I can't try a new sim because I have no extra micro sim in my house.
When I send a text, it says "currently unable to send your message. it will be sent when the service becomes available" then it goes on a message loop. When I try to call someone, it says "Not registered on network". The signal bar is full though.
Is there a way to solve this issue without having to root my phone? I still have it on warranty and I can't really follow complicated instructions since I'm new to Android.
if there is really no way of solving this issue, then i'll go to the SSC. however, i really want to fix this alone cause' i'm pretty sure that they'll wipe off everything from my phone. if wiping every off of my phone will solve the issue, than i guess i'll just have to give it to SSC.
Thank you.
