Try this:
From the home screen push the menu button then "Settings" then "More settings" then "Mobile networks", do you have "Use packet data" checked? if not, then check it. 4G will come back, if you do, and still have no 4G signal then within that same page tap on "Network operators", then "Search now". Now wait until it shows you a list of network operators. You should probably see 2 "TMobile" Networks. choose the first one and give it about 5 seconds, a window will come up with a "Registered to Network" message...do you have 4G yet? if not, then try the second "TMobile" Network within that same list...I hope this helps...

Impossible to get network operator

I flashed CM10.1 on my S3 and had the same problem as others where data was intermittent. It worked for some time and after one nightly, I lost my IMEI. So I got back to stock, used the procedure with QPST and got back my IMEI. I got back to cm10.1 and unsurprisingly, I had a hard time having data. But worst off, I had a hard time having cell connection anymore, not even voice or sms. Tried AOKP without any luck. Tried different modems, not luck either. Now I went back to stock and still doesn't work. There's something that is not resetted between flash of ROM that keeps messing up my connection. I also found out that only one network provider is ever found, one is Rogers Wireless (I'm with Bell), or one is EXT. But never any other provider is ever found. And also in *#*#4636#*#* under phone info I can'T change the radio band like I can on the phone of my girlfriend.
So there it is. I'm stuck. I don't really want to buy another phone. It is a software issue for sure. But how can we solve that? Is there any way to restore the EFS to factory default? Could it be buried there? What is the ERI? Could it be that? My stock ROm says that it can't get the ERI version.
Any help is welcome.
my stock telus ERI is unavailable but i think thats normal... i have no problems
from what i understand imei and apn settings are the things to check into

IMEI and APN are good. IMEI will get me data, but I can't even get a cell connection now. No radio at all.
whats your radio band set to?
if i set mine to anything but automatic it wont find networks like yours..
*#*#4636#*#* dont work on my telus s3.
i use a different method
*#197328460# then
UMTS > Debug Screen > Phone control > Network Control > Band selection >
Automatic...
beware what you change in here as there is no return to default

Neither of the two works. *#*#4636#*#* was working with CM10/10.1 and AOKP. But not with stock. And the one you suggest after is not working either.
But I remember going ot *#*#4636#*#* before flashing stock rom and I wasn't able to selet any band. On my girlfriend's android phone (HTC) I can.
if it were me.. i would try reflashing stock again... after flashing stock do a factory reset thru recovery... seems to help for clean stock setup.
if still no network i would check that band selection is set to automatic.
maybe someone else with more experience would have a better idea.
you mentioned you changed your band selection and now cant change it back.
i dont think flashing stock changes this.
i think that might be your problem.
ifso you first need to fix phone to use *# code... i have no idea why its not working
it works on my stock telus 4.0.4 and 4.1.1
maybe bell blocks from using *#code?

if i were u i would first try your girls sim in your phone and vise versa and if no luck do the qpst instructions to regain LTE not imei .and if u still cant manually find network operator after that i would format both sd cards and odin back to stock rooted and do the imei injection again for the hell of it and the LTE fix ..and stay on stock rooted or 4.1.2 until u get this figured out cause 4.2 builds are gonna have more probs then 4.1...I know u are having cell connect probs and these instructions are for imei and data but it sounds like your out of options....i lost imei once and had to manually inject with qpst and my reception was one bar til i did the LTE fix and it worked awesome..one more thing is my phone will not select a radio band ever unless i manually select my network operator first or i have no sim card in phone..i have also had sim cards crap out for no apparent reason..good luck
edit. my bad i thought your girl also had gs3..maybe the sims are still the same

Thanks for your answer. Really appreciated. I've flashed so much time that I don't see the point of doing it again. I also had, at some point, to inject my IMEI and it worked with QPST.
What I find really strange is that a stock reflash doesn't put everything back to when I bought the phone. Funny thing, after the flash, it knew what my Wi-Fi router password was! So obviously there are some part of the config that is not overwritten. Which I find odd.
I also started playing with the service menu and found a lot of settings for the radio band. No luck yet.

Your WiFi password could have been restored by google just like it puts your contact info back.
If you are doing a Odin to stock that should wipe it clean.

This thing is so strange. There's only one network that my phone can see now, and it is 302720. Bell is 302610. No other network is visible. And since I'm with Bell, then I can't connect to 302720. I'm in for emergency calls only. That's why I thought it may have to do with radio. But it seems Rogers (302720) and Bell use the same bands. A channel maybe? But this should be all automatic! It's a pretty stupid bug let me tell you!
Maybe a SIM card issue? That would be quite a coincidence that it happen exactly when I'm playing with ROMs...

Ah that's a good possibility. I didn't know it was saving passwords as well.
So if it wipes clean, how come this bug stays? There is obviously something that is not wiped and overwritten or else it would work.

When you go to info about your phone, in status you usually have your IMEI number. It'll show 0 if it's corrupted. Or sometimes it's a generic IMEI dans is used when the real one is unknown. It's 049 something I think.
Without an IMEI number you can do phone call. But you'll never have a data connection.

No 3g after flashing 4.2.2 and 4.1.2 firmware.

I own a ZL C6502 with 4.1.2 firmware and root access.
I decided to try out the new 4.2.2 firmware (Xperia ZL_10.3.A.0.423_Indonezia С6502.ftf ) After flashing it i noticed that the 3g isn't working. I flashed back to 4.1.2 firmware (Xperia ZL C6502_10.1.A.1.434_global) but the 3g issue is still present. I can make calls no problem but no internet through the data connection.
Every time i flashed a new firmware after first reboot i get this message : "Factory startup service please wait for power off button"
Some help would be appreciated.

The "Factory startup service please wait for power off button" only happens at the first boot right after a flash which is normal. I hate to ask dumb questions but obviously your APN settings were wiped after the flash, have you reconfigured your APN settings to make data work with your provider?

Google your 'carrier' apn, or easiest way is bring it to the 'carrier' store they will set it up for you.
APN setting is in settings/More.../Mobile networks/Access Point Names - hit menu (the three dots) choose 'New APN'. Enter the result search from google.

Try this easy solution. Turn on your phone, remove the sim card and then put it back and turn on your phone. Maybe the configuration will pop up by itself as it should.
When i had my similar problem i went and manually configured the settings. But it also worked out by itself when i removed the sim card afterwards.
Good luck!

No Signal / No Network

Hello, I am new here but have intermediate experience with devices.
Alright time to throw everyone for a loop lol, hopefully someone can help me out.
Here is my problem:
My phone is not connected to a network.
Here is what I have:
Samsung Galaxy S III with Metro PCS (NOT rooted, and with latest PRL and software updates)
What happened:
I woke up yesterday to find my phone not on Metros network, and not on a partner network. My 4G still works though, I can access internet but just can not call/txt or receive either.
In Settings > About Device > Status, here are some of the satus'...
Network: Searching for Service
Signal Strength: -93dBm 47asu
Mobile Network Type: LTE:14
Service State: Out of Service
Roaming: Not Roaming
My Phone Number: Unknown
Min: Unknown
PRL Version: 0
Things I've Done So Far:
Contacted Metro through phone support and Facebook support, neither could help fix the problem.
Took my phone into a Metro store and they wont honor a repair since my screen has a hairline crack in the screen. (which I will also say, they noted that already on my account...)
I've already went to *#22745927 and enabled the hidden menu multiple times (cause it disables with each restart) and I've went to **772 to view my MDN and MSID (MIN) and the MDN shows nothing and MSID has a 10 digit number (that's not the right number for my account), so I tried to edit them to the numbers that I know are correct and after I hit done, the phone restarts but then when it comes back on, nothings changed, and when viewing **772 again, the numbers don't save in the fields.
I know *#197328640# lets you access the service menu, but I don't really feel like touching any of that and making things worse (unless someone knows how to fix this issue through the service menu then ill do it)
Now that my long winded speech is done, its your turn to try and solve this dilemma and help me out please
I hope this is the right section to post in, sorry if it is not.
Thanks in advance to any help ^^ if anyone's got any other questions, ill try to answer them best as I can.
With your Device not being Rooted, the options are limited. Also a bit more clarification. You say you have no Signal / Network. But yet you also state you have 4G, and can access the Internet. That is a bit contradictory. It sounds like you may need to have the Device Flashed to Metro again, as something may have gone wonky.
Try to dial *228 then call and see if it will go through an activation process of some kind. If it does, let it go through until successful then reboot your phone.

Dial code ##72786# is supposed to reactivate you phone. That might fix your problem. Alternatively, you can try writing a PRL that you know works with Metro.
You can dial ##DATA# and go to View. Some ROMs (even stock ROMs) have a "Write PRL" option. If your ROM does not have that, you can try the HiddenMenu.apk trick and see if that fixes it for you.
If PRL is 0, then it is not scanning for sites. LTE is handled by a different function, not PRL. Voice/Text rely on PRL to function. Hopefully the PRL fix helps you.
I have attached hiddenmenu.apk that has PRL Write enabler. Just download and install as normal app. If it does not work and breaks your dialer, simply reboot. The HiddenMenu is only temporary until you reboot, it reverts back to hiddenmenu under /system.

Yea I'm not totally sure why I can access 4G data but not the network.
I brought my phone into a Corporate Metro store and they told me it might be a faulty CDMA antenna but I don't think an antenna issue would put my PRL to 0 and not show my phone number or MIN.

A CDMA Antenna being loose would not cause the Device to wipe data.

I tried to use the dialer with Wifi on, with 4G Data on. Even tried to use Metros "Joyn" service which lets you make calls and texts over data connection but the issue is, I did a factory reset already and by doing that it wiped the Joyn data from my phone. Now when I go to start "Joyn" up, it says it needs to be able to connect to Metros Network for the first time set-up so I cant do that since I cant connect to the mobile network (CDMA).
I still need to try what Ascertion said.

Yea I went there, I asked how to install it since I don't see a .apk file anywhere and they said the APK is the download.
Usually you can download a file with the extension .apk then install it from your phone easily but since there is no file in that download with the file extension ".apk" then I don't see how I can install...
Quick update:
Got that download to change to .APK by simply renaming the file extension.
But after I loaded it to my phone and tried running it, it greeted me with an "Application Not Installed" message.

[Q] (Ace II x) Issues with cellular networks and connecting to them

So stupid me was fooling around in the *#197328604# menu and I accidentally screwed up my IMEI number (whoops my bad. not going in there again). After watching a YouTube video (Found via Googling), I managed to restore it (It now once again matches the IMEI on the bottom of the phone's box). However, I still have no cell service.
1. When I have the phone on the lock screen, it says "Emergency Calls Only". From time to time it may also say "Invalid SIM" or something along those lines.
2. When I look for mobile services (Settings -> More Settings -> Mobile Networks), it pops up an error, "Insert SIM card to access network services", even though the SIM card is inserted.
3. Sending a text message fails. It just says it will wait with it until a network is available.
4. Placing phone calls fail. "Not registered on network"
5. The phone can read the SIM though. Going to the Contacts, and going to Import/Export has the SIM card options, and nothing goes wrong when selecting them.
Where can I go from here? I've cleared the Dalvik Cache to no avail as well. It almost works, so I think it's software related, or perhaps my SIM is malfunctioning, but I want to exhaust every possibility before going back and saying "my phone is acting wonky".
Have you tried a factory reset? If that fails, you might need to reflash the ROM.

Yeah. Resetting it failed. I can't get past the setup. After skipping WiFi setup, I just get a black screen and nothing shows. I may have to do a stock reflash. If that too fails, I may see if I can bring it in.
Edit: Stock reflash failed to fix it as well. Gonna bring it back and get it replaced.
Edit 2: Got a replacement SIM, didn't fix the problem. Seems it's hardware based (or software). Is it possible to remove all traces of a root before sending it in to make it appear unmodified?

I've recovered from doing the exact same thing. It will take a lot of trial and error. What network are you on?

[Q] No Service. Data working but no Call/Text.

Hello!
I have m919 T-Mobile Galaxy s4 but I'm with other carrier (Wind Canada). I rooted the phone about a month ago, I believe, using THIS guide.
I spent yesterday in environment where I didn't had coverage for most of the day, but i haven't gotten it back yet. Sounds really weird as it might be not connected to the fact at all. I have 4G connection active, which means that I have internet, but it keeps 'searching' for service and I can't Call/Text anyone, neither I can receive calls or texts. Instead of the bar at the top showing how good coverage i have it just shows a crossed out circle icon.
I've tried reboots, keeping my phone off for 30mins without battery, taking out sim and putting it back in, changing network modes and resetting APN (all from settings panel).
Have anyone experienced something like that and how do I fix it? It was working perfectly for last couple of months and the phone didn't get any damage yesterday neither.
P.S Did the the regular factory reset (don't know if it affects rooting) but it didn't change anything. =
I have same problem.
Did you solve it? and how?
Haven't solved it, that was the whole point of my post!

Never had this happen to me. Data works off your signal, something is wickedly wrong. I'd flash the modem again if you are on 4.2.2 bootloader (doesn't matter which rom or android version). If that fails, go intonrecovery, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and wipe data. If that fails, backup your data and Odin flash back to 100% stock. If that fails, more than likely your /efs folder was corrupted.

Ok, so I got heimdall, and got the recovery.img from the other topic. I followed the steps that was provided in the second link, but nothing much changed, it successfully uploaded the recovery.img, then i did recovery boot with power button + home button + volume up, it did some things with a pirate android guy in the back and thats it, booted up. Not sure if I have everything back to stock or not - either way, the issue with the network hasn't been resolved!

Tried this?
go to settings/more networks/Mobile networks/Network operators/Search now......
It might take a minute or two, then show you some networks it finds. Select your provider and it should list some options for you.
need to see Mobile data with a check, Data roaming checked, network mode should be LTE/GSM/WCDMA(auto connect)
If you KNOW what your APN (access Point Name) is you can check if it's correctly there.
It usually is downloaded with the search for network so just try with whatever is ther for now.
Back all the way out, and power off. Take out the battery, wait like 30 seconds, replace the battery and power on again.
See if you get service and can dial out.
Aloha and Good Luck!

go to settings/more networks/Mobile networks/Network operators/Search now......
It might take a minute or two, then show you some networks it finds. Select your provider and it should list some options for you.
need to see Mobile data with a check, Data roaming checked, network mode should be LTE/GSM/WCDMA(auto connect)

Ok, now you might want to call your provider and ask them to remove you from their network and reinsert you again. That procedure will often re-enable normal operation of cellular connectivity.
They will ask you to power down and remove your battery for about a minute, then power up again.

Tried it all
Well im in the same boat here.
I checked the IMEI is correct
i did a full stock MK5 install with Odin without sim inserted and with
*#2263# helps it recognizes the network on the search list (WIND)
but it wont connect (failed to connect try again)
sometimes it connects to 4G and i can use the web
but no calls or sms
i noticed i dont have LTE enabled which ill do tomorrow
i even opened my phone to check that no cables came off as it was in service for a broken screen
tried a different sim from koodo wich also acts weird it connects to data but wont make phone calls or sms
the problems began after its been UNLOCKED (sim free)
any suggestions? im willing to try anything
its been in service 4 times and still they cant figure it out...
thanks!

Ok I found the solution. Apparently I have bought a stolen phone. Check the imei if it hasn't been blacklisted!
