URGENT!!! No SIMCARD detected

Hi everyone,
I have a Xperia Arc (LT15i), and I have a problem. Since yesterday, my phone didn't recognize any SIMCARD. It's locked to Vodafone Spain and BL is locked too.
I saw that my Xperia Arc doesn't boot...and I've flashed FIX Fota Bricked Pack for unlocked Bootloaders...and my Bootloader is locked...since this...No SIM Card detected...and no signal...incl one SIM for Vodafone SPAIN.
Any solution????
If I downgrade from ICS to GB with Flashtool it's possible to fix this problem...or what else???? Any ROM for fix this problem??? PC Companion and SEUS said me that my software is up 2 date...and didn't repair...
Thank you in advance! PLZ Help Me! For me it's a BIG BIG problem! I don't have phone!!!....
Try flashing a stock ROM using the flashtool and report back.
Where can I download Stock Rom? What Stock ROM? ICS or GB?
Thanx...Tonight...i'll flash...then report!

From the stickys in general, and I would go with ICS.
I've flashed various ICS stock ROMS...and the problem is the same...Insert SIMCard and restart the phone...
I've used Flashtool 0.9...is there any problem with this version?
Please...any solution? Is my phone dead?
Today I've used SEUS to Update from GB to ICS...and the problem is the same. Still saying...No SIMCARD detected, only emergency calls...or...insert SIM CARD and restart the phone...
What can i do?
Have you taken it out and give it a wipe?
Sent from my Phone.
What???? Sorry but I don''t understand you....
Have you taken the sim card out of the Phone?
Sent from my Phone.
Yes...
And the result is the same...SIM CARD not detected, only emergency calls.
Any solution???
Maybe try put another sim card into your phone and/or your sim card into another phone to test.
I put the SIM on another phone...and SIM seems to be functionally!!! But the same SIM in Xperia Arc nope!
I'll tried anothers SIMS in arc and the result is the same...
After reading many webs...I believe that I found the solution...
Just in this forum...there is a thread with No sim card detected and Emergency Calls...after many tries...solution is Omnius Server and Unlock by certificate replacement. I bought a Single Android License Unlock...tonight I'll try this...if it's resolves my problem, xperia arc will be my phone...if not...BRICK ARC WITH MY HANDS!!! Muahahahahahahaha...
Post results tonight!
hello!
I've got the same problem as you but with my xperia play R800i.
I unlocked it with omnius. I bought a Single Android License Unlock.
Now, it doesn't recognise the sim card.
Could you tell me if you have solved your problem.
Sorry I'm french I don't speak english very well.
All OK!!!! Successfully my Xperia Arc is fully functional...
I bought a Single Android License Unlock from a reseller of Omnius Server in Spain. Only I Need is download Omnius client, connect TestPoint (Clip to bridge 2 GND in Xperia Arc...i don't know on Xperia Play, see testpoint tutorials or Omnius Help!)...then...Network Unlock by certificate replacement...3 seconds left...Power On Xperia Arc...and...
You Hou!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
SIMLOCK removed, SIM CARD Reconigzed and the best BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED!!!!! Muahahahahaaahahahaha...
And that's all!
My best 22 € inverted!
Thanks for all 2 people, tutorials, etc... and Omnius-Server also!
See u !!!
Happy Flashing!

Have you purchased it new?
Have you purchased device unlocked?
Try network unlock (find toolbox in my signature)
Ask your operator if your IMEI is banned
One possibility is physically damage sim card adopter.

after that rooted the device until this point no sim card inserted yet , then my friend took the phone
and inserted the sim card ,then the phone started to ask for pin number he entered the right pin #

If you can find a simcard that will work with the phone, then sell the phone - probably best to cut your losses

Big problem, UNKNOWN BASEBAND error after flashing modem.

Hello guys,
I have this problem, i got a note 2 from a carrier in argentina called "personal" wanted to sim unlock it so i followed the easy way
of the hidden menu " network lock " and that tutorial.. ( cant post links yet )
But it did not work cause i had 4.1.2 , so i got 4.1.1 also did not work, so i read you need VALK8 baseband to sim unlock it.
Got the VALK8 zip file, rooted note 2, installed custom recovery, installed the .zip file . and got a UNKNOWN BASEBAND djaskdsjakdasjd!
How can i fix this? need the VALK8 to get to the menu sim unlock it and then flash 4.1.2 again

How can i SIM unlock this and then put 4.1.2 on it?
thanks i will really appreciate it!
First of all, what model you have?
Im assume you have carrier lock model,
1)Root your phone.
2)go google play download either *galaxsim unlock* or galaxy_s unlock.
Follow the instruction as given, then you will be fine.
If I were you I will download the old time 4.1.2 stock rom such as mb2. Since you might not aware of the new samsung stability update will messing up your imei and modem.
