Hi,
I was wondering who could explain me why it is when I upgrade the bb or the firmware, that my phone has network problems.
Every firmware above 4.1.B.0.431 gives me these problems.
I'm connected to the network between 10 and 30 mins, after that I've to reboot to reconnect. It's pretty annoying.
On firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62 there's no issues at all.
So far it doesn't give me problems with the custom roms I'm installing, but still..
would be nice to understand why it's a problem.
cheers Tim

The error message I'm getting is that the SIM card is removed.
No one else has this problem on .431 and .587 firmware?
The error message is that the SIM card is removed..
well is a very rare problem
have not had it so far but since is about the simcard might be something else besides the rom
otherwise you could try to update your baseband with one that works better with your phone

Hi All,
last friday I upgraded my Hermes to Black 2.0. Everything was working fine. This week I'm in Morroco for my job (I normally live in France) and I can't register to any phone network. I tried automatic network selection, nothing. I tried manual selection, I can find the network (i.e MEDITEL) but I can't register to the network ( I get an error message saying that registration could not be applied through the network). I tried several ROM, to no avail.
My current configuration is :
ROM : Hermes WWE 3.24.04
Radio : 1.40.30.00
SPL : 1.40 Oli
Sim : unlocked
Can anybody help me please ? Because for the moment, I'm blocked in Morroco without phone !
Thanks in advance
have you tried calling your Service Provider?? and how did you manage to get the latest version of Radio ROM as it was only released today?
I didn't contact my provider because my colleagues have the same provider and have no issues. As I said before, I tried several things to fix the issue, updating Radio among them. I downloaded 1.40 version this afternoon.
have you tried changing the band to GSM only?
I also tried that, but I couldn't complete the operation. Each time I got an error message saying that the settings could not be applied. I'm currently in the process of of downgrading to a WM5 ROM to see if the issue is still here.

downgrading your OS wont make a difference... you need to downgrade your Radio... try downgrading to 1.38.30.10 using SSPL and let us know....
sounds like your Radio might be corrupt...

You're right, downgrading to wm5 didn't change anything....not did the radio downgrade to 1.38.
Tomorrow (it's 12. AM in Casablanca) I will try my SIM in others phones and try other SIMs in my phone. I will let you know.
The good news is that Black 2.0 doesn't seem to be at fault in this issue.
Thanks for your interest.
it's fixed
I have good news ! I tried several SIMs cards today on my phone, and I was able to join the network with each of them. I put back my own SIM card (after cleaning it methodically), and I have been able to connect. So my issue is now solved, and I can sill enjoy Black 2.0
walshieau, thank you for your comments, it put me in the right tracks

Isn't technology wonderful!!! We spend so much time upgrading, tweaking and fiddling that we forget something as simple as a dirty contact can screw us just as easily
Hi guys,
I had an Xperia Pro updated to ICS 4.0.4 stock, everything was working ok, one morning at work I couldn't get any signal in any part of the building, removed SIM and placed in a different phone, it was getting some signal, back to Xperia Pro, no signal again and when picking manually one of the networks was giving an error message ( like ... network unavailable or check if SIM inserted ), tried activating - deactivating plane mode, still no change, at a certain moment it rebooted by itself, but still no change.
Went home, tried a different SIM, same thing, did a factory reset of the phone, still same error and won't join any network.
Thought, OK it's time to try a different ROM, maybe more luck.
So unlocked bootloader, flashed Cyanogenmod 7.2, install went OK and all, but still the same problem, it won't join any network with any SIM I put in.
What can I try next ? Anyone has any idea ?
Thanks for any suggestion or advice
I think there is a problem with the hardware.

Hmmm ... it was in my pocket while going to work, I later noticed the lack of network signal, but there wasn't any shock or whatever, just regular commute from home to office.
Additional Info: I've remember something that might be relevant: after the reboot in CM7.2 it kept asking for the SIM unlock PIN I think, and it didn't work with the PIN that I knew the SIM had, after a couple tries I clicked "reject" to avoid locking the SIM.
Not sure if it means the phone become locked ?! should I try to unlock it ? It was normally already unlocked before, not sure if it makes any sense what I'm imagining here ...
Try full reflash using Flashtool

OK, thx, downloading rom as we speak.
oh, but what's the difference between Central_Europe and Baltic tft ? don't know which one should I use ...
Its the country where its for, but you can use both.
All unbranded FIrmwares work everywhere

I used the Central Europe because the file has a slightly newer date.
Had problems with using Flashtool under Windows, probably some driver wasn't correctly installed as my computer was freezing every time I connected in flashmode. Fortunately I have a dual boot and it worked under Ubuntu.
But no luck, still no service after back to ICS.
But I found some other thread on the net that pointed to check mend, and guess what ... doing a report resulted in "Currently blocked - CheckMEND has a record of this item having been blocked by one or more cell phone networks"
Now ... wtf can I do next ?!
Ask your Carrier for help, maybe they now something

Tried a couple of them, either they say they can't do anything ( if I don't have a contract with them ), or one operator told me have no blockage or record of this IMEI.
So ... more and more confused and clueless ...
getting into the SIM Lock menu of the phone ( using the *#*#-whatever-#*#* combination ), every digit is 0, I've read that it means it's "hardlock" but not sure what exactly this means and especially how can it be unlocked ?!

Any luck m8?
I have the same problem in Portugal but only with one carrier (TMN). Already order a CheckMEND report and "0 reports in my case".
Flashed different ROMS, Kernels, changed baseband and... nothing! Back to stock ICS and still no TMN signal for calls or SMS... I have 3G for internet though...

Any of the procedures linked in this post will work for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39415390&postcount=5
If you plan on unlocking the bootloader do that first and the unlocked bootloader process is much simpler.
I use this works perfect.

I have a request for you if you dont mind. If you still havent flashed a different firmware and are still running the Rogers one on your ZL, can you tell me if you get an error when enabling "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot". The error should be "Error occured during tethering".
I got the Rogers phone also but flashed it the first day I got it with the generic firmware 10.1.A.1.434. I never bothered checking if tethering was working in the first place. Anyway, I flashed it back to build 395 but the same thing happens so I flashed it back to 434 and unable to tether. Everything works fine apart from that.
Thanks!!

Hi Crash, I can confirm that on my Xperia ZL(Rogers), Portable Wi-Fi Tethering works, i received no Error; connected a device to the Wi-Fi hotspot just to be sure it does in fact work.

Thanks KayEx ... I actually figured it out. I configured the right APN manually but Rogers was also pushing something called Rogers Tethering which couldn't be selected but by modifying it's value from isp.apn to ltemobile.apn, the problem dissapeared.
It's all perfect now! :good:
I had my phone working fine on 2.3.6, but I have recently flashed my ROM.
I followed these EXACT instructions (http://www.lorenzobettini.it/2013/08/update-samsung-galaxy-wonder-i8150-to-android-jelly-bean/) and afterwards, I couldn't see Virgin Mobile UK as a Network Operator to connect to. So I can only use WiFi. (However, I saw T-Mobile, Orange, Vodafone and Three. It automatically connected me to T-Mobile, but nothing worked)
I thought it may be a problem with the ROM, so I used the Stable release of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2120340 ... I have the same problem.
I've now tried a third: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2401757 ... still doesn't work.
It can't be the ROMs... Could I need to upgrade my baseband? I don't really know what a baseband is, just what hours of Googling has brought up.
How can I fix this?

okay, if this goes wrong, can i restore from my backup on CWM and it'll be fine? also, where ís a tutorial for this?
no need to change operator
Virgin media pay T-mobile/EE to use their network all you got to do i change the apn on your phone manually to get your data and you will be fine
i know this becase i have been doing for the last few months and had no problems

Hey guys,
I need some help.
My LG F180L (i presume cause it said it in the settings but you never know) lost its signal and no the IMEI is unknown.
I didn't do anything with the phone, I bought this phone about 10 days ago and it was working fine then all of a sudden I couldn't hear or send voice over GSM calls (I could talk through whats app or viber) only calls from network wont let me hear or send voice, I could send text message though.
I thought that it might be a software issue and i factory reset the phone, that was it, No signal at all. now it wont find any network at all. Then i just thought of checking the IMEI and IMEI was unknown, all i did was factory reset the phone.
Then i actually thought that stock rom might fix it so i flashed the phone using LG flash tool and installed the KDZ "F180L30e_00".
ofcourse still no signal and the worst case scenario now it drains battery like crazy and wifi is working fine but apps gets stuck a lot.
I have backed up anything, I think if i can find older version of KDZ, then i can flash them may be that might fix the signal issue.
Please suggest me what to.
Thanks.
Regards.
Update : Ok i have flashed F180L20S_00.kdz, now its on 4.1.2 and it seems like the apps are working fine now, over the wifi every thing seems ok, but no signal.
I am not sure what to do, but i have heard flashing the basband might help, i am searching the internet but i cant find the basband, can anyone help ?

Thanks guys for getting back at me, i will try the sling baseband first and then probably will flash the international version baseband as well, i already dont have network, i dont have anything to lose
just one question though, if i am using 4.1.2, if i flash 4.4.2 baseband, will it work or baseband has to be exactly the same as the android version ?
