[Q] emergency calls only, not registered on network - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi there, i have a problem after i flashed custom ROM, the phone gets singal, but said emergency calls only, it's able to search network and i can choose network, but when i try to make call, it said not registered on network, i tried to flash different modem but still not working, any clues about it?? (it shows valid IMEI and serial number, and baseband ver: n7100dxdmf1 network: telkomsel(my current provider) service state: out of service))

I am with the same problem. I bought a Galaxy s4 i9505 from Amazon and the phone has full signal on GSM network, but when I try to make a call appears the same message always... Not registered on network.
I flashed another ROM but the problem can not be fixed. I have read everything about this problem on Google and in this Forum, but no one fixed this problem. I am in Brazil now. Sometimes the phone works. Sometimes not. I am afraid if this could not be a hardware problem. If someone can help some people are with the same problem.
What I already did:
- checked the sim card in other phone and it works ok;
- flashed the original ROM for a brazilian ROM.
I do not know what to do anymore.

Locked phone that your problem,you must hack rom or search code and unlock your phone.

But the phone works sometimes. I do not understand a lot about it, but I thing that if the phone is locked it should not work anytime, or not?
Today I am with full signal on GSM network (and I can register in the network. In others days it was not possible) and it is working in my home. But when I go to other place outside and walk with the phone in the car it not works properly. In this case I just have none or one point of signal and the message of emergency calls appears again. :/ On WCDMA it works SOMETIMES too, but with one or two points of SIGNAL only. Do you think that it is because the phone is locked? By the way, it's the i9505 model. It should be unlocked. I bought it as an unlocked phone to work in Brazil. It is the international version.

One more information: the phone now is working ok with GSM network, but when I change for WCDMA I only got one or none point of signal. What it can be? :/

Hey.. there may be a problem with your network provider.. happened to me too...
I was using vodafone india and i had activated 3g on my n7100.. then i couldn't change to gsm mode. Then i chose another operator (airtel india) and now i can switch to gsm/wcdma irrespective of ny current data pack (2g or 3g)

[Q] No signal after enabling 2G only

Hi Guys,
To conserve the battery on my defy I enabled the "2G only" option but the moment i enable it, my signal bar shows only 2 bars and finally it goes to the emergency call mode. The signal strength is fine in other phones in the same area, It was working fine till last week. But this new issue started from past two days. Do you think the issue is related to service provider?
First i thought setvsel might be causing the issue but even after setting default values in setvsel i face the same issue, Also did a factory reset and reflashed the 1ff but still same issue. somebody please help me..
My MB525 has stock eclair rom, Rooted, and Airtel is my service provider.
If it worked, and you did not install a new SBF, or you did not changed things in your system, then it should not be your problem, you could be your provider problem. You should try with a new SIM card. It happend to me, that my SIM has broken, and i had not signal on my phone, and i had to replace it.
Other problem, could be some hardware problem, but you should check the SIM first, and do some more investigation.
Well.. it works fine if I set it to "automatic" mode, But the battery drains fast, since its 3G signal.
I reflashed the sbf after i got this issue. And you are right Ill try with another sim and see how it works..
or try the baseband switcher?
Its almost certain you have an incorrect baseband. ROMs Wrong baseband causes "red cross when switching between 2g only 3g only, 1 bar signal, drops in calls, slow 3g speed. etc."
Just install a baseband who's valid for your country and you are good to go
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944258
In post number 71 you can download a program who install the desired baseband with the tap of a finger.
It worked... Thanks a lot unrafa

[Q] LTE SIM inserted, but "Insert SIM Card to access Data Services" message shows

[Q] LTE SIM inserted, but "Insert SIM Card to access Data Services" message shows
Hi,
I'm in the Philippines. I bought a Note N7105 last week (not from my provider) and installed 4.1.2 with baseband N7105DXDLL1. All good until a few days ago I received my LTE card from GLOBE Telcom.
Now I have a problem. I can make calls and send SMS using the card but when I try to enable data services it tells me "Insert SIM Card to access Data Services", and will not enable data or let me see anything under "Mobile Networks".
I have tried a different Globe LTE SIM card (my son's) and the same thing happens.
If I put this LTE SIM into my Galaxy S II (Baseband = I9100XXLPX), it runs fine (but 3G of course). So it's not a faulty SIM card.
I was wondering if the problem might be the modem ? Any ideas ?
Globe runs LTE Band 1800
thanks
Could it be the modem ?

Have you try changing network mode under settings - wireless (more) - mobile network - network mode
If you set it to utms/wcdma doest it works?

When the SIM is inserted, the whole mobile settings menu becomes unavailable, because the phone thinks no SIM is inserted (even though calls and SMS works).
UtkarshGupta suggests its the APN not the modem so I'll look into that too.
For now, I have a new problem - the SIM slot is broken, due to using one of those stupid Nano adapters, because my provider does not have micro SIMs. So until I get that replaced, I can't try anything !
Re: [Q] LTE SIM inserted, but "Insert SIM Card to access Data Services" message shows

Hi
I'm from the philippines just as you. I'm also using globe's LTE and recently have bought a note 2 (N7105). My note 2 works perfectly. But a few days ago, my friend who was interested in getting the same phone that I have, decided to buy one. We went to the same store hot gadgets to buy another phone exactly like mine N7105. We encountered the same problem as you. All other simcards would work except for my Globe LTE sim. It seems like its a new batch of note 2s from their supplier abroad. What i noticed about the new batch that arrived is that it was previously locked to a foreign network and just unlocked. the box also has a "cityzi" logo which is a carrier in france. the seller claims that all their units are locked and just unlocked.
but i believe that the batch i got was factory unlocked in the first place because there is no logo on the box and no logo when starting up and turning off the phone.
I have a feeling that it may be a firmware related problem. what i would like to ask if you have tried updating the phone to the current DMC3 firmware. you can read up about it.
there is a forum on tipid cp on n7105 sadly im just a new user on xda so i cant post the link. just search for it.
if you check sammobile.com there is an n7105 firmware for the philippines. im not sure if flashing it with this new firm ware would fix the problem. i flashed my phone with it and it worked fine but im not sure if a previously locked phone would create problems when updating firmware. maybe some people in the forum could help. thanks.

Hi, Yes I flashed the firmware N7105XXDMC3_N7105OLBDMD1_GLB and now my note 2 works fine with Globe LTE. I found details on this site http://wccftech.com/update-galaxy-note-2-lte-n7105-xxdmc3-android-412-jelly-bean-official-firmware/

This is an English only forum. Ask in English if you want an answer. Also, this section is for the Note 2. Ask again in the S3 section, in English.
Worked like a charm. Thanks!
big thanks to this thread! i had problems with my N7105 from HK as well but now it works fine on Globe LTE!
only problem i encountered was downloading the file which was 1GB, kept failing to download until this morning hehehe. :highfive:
Hi everyone. Might there be a torrent for the firmware file? Download keep terminating on my side. Thanks guys
Hi!
First I want to thank you for pointing out that only XXDMC3 will work with GLOBE LTE.
I think it is the SIM card itself because I have an AT&T i317 Galaxy note 2. First I wasn't able to get it to work. Same issues with you. Can call, text, but will not allow me to access mobile services.
I also tried flashing it with the modem from here (XXDMC3 (Philippines / Globe) N7105DXDMC1_modem_GLB) you can use this modem if you have the N7105
I misread the instructions and had a bootloop. But was able to reflash the stock AT&t firmware.
So instead of going that route, I downloaded this International ROM for ATT Galaxy note 2 As it is already XXDMC3 baseband.
It works very well. But I still have to wait for the activation of my LTE to see if that really works. But now I can access the menu's and H+ works on my phone.
This is using the Stock AT&T Modem.
I hope this helps folks with international phones and want it to work with GLOBE LTE.. =)
This firmware works fine with globe, but not so sure about Smart. A Smart prepaid SIM works fine, but a postpaid SIM does not work at all, not even for calling / texting. Smart are unable to explain why this would be the case. They made up some BS story about the phone being locked to Globe (a 7105 International edition !!) I was not able to test it fully because I sold the phone, so I can't say for sure it was a firmware issue. But we tried several Smart postpaid SIMS and all did not work. Just throwing it out there.

Can't find network, no data, WiFi works fine though.

Got this phone with the problem already, I installed a custom ROM hoping that would fix it but still doesn't work.
Cannot find network, though it is showing 3 bars?
Can't make calls, can't use data.
WiFi works just fine.
EDIT: Should probablly give some more info:
T-Mobile model
ROM: CleanROM A.C.E.
SIM card works fine in my other phone.
EDIT2: Ok so after more fiddling I got it to pick up a signal from AT&T with the "Find Network" search. I'm thinking this has been locked to AT&T and I just need to flash back to a stock ROM and unlock it, thoughts?
I know I get T-Mobile signal at my house my other phone picks it up just fine and I'm using the same exact SIM in both.

Maybe someone has flashed a wrong modem/rom on the phone so it ruined everything..
You said it's T-Mobile phone.. I guess it's gotta be locked to t-mobile..
I would suggest to post this on T-Mobile Note 2 forum.. They would know a way to solve your problem.. This forum is for international note 2..

*#06 etc to get your imei display on the phone. Check imei matches with imei number underneath the battery. If they match and apeears to be valid you may have a locked or blacklisted phone. Blacklisted means its imei blocked nationally due to fraud such as lost stolen and insurance replacement provided etc.
Good luck

SM-T211 Carrier issue

hello everyone, its been long since i am facing this issues (i have a workaround to tackle this issue but cant do it everytime)
as soon as i rooted tab 3 7.0 (SM T211) it started showing that there is no sim card to turn on the mobile network but calling worked pretty fine
i thought i might try different rom but not luck and on the top of that it now shows my vodafone carrier as hutch :/
can any one help me with this..?
the workaround i found is
i have to set my mobile data connection to only gsm then restart the tab if lucky it will show the vodafone in in the carrier space and then i have to change from just gsm to auto mode (gsm and wdcma)
but the problem with this is, if i restart...i have to do everything again and while in the middle of a call or surfing net on 3g, the connection drops and goes back to hutch :/
please help

Weird network issue... no network when switching to 3G/4G :(

I am in a fix here!!! Since long I have been facing this problem wherein, whenever I switch to 3G/4G mode, my phone looses network forever.. It seems to work perfectly fine in 2G mode.. I tried everything.. playing with radios, factory resetting and all the other help that I could get but in vain. I thought it is a hardware issue and since mine is an imported one, and I don't have warranty, I was avoiding to take it to a repair centre.. A week back, I went to Malaysia for a trip, and as I put a local SIM, my 3G starts working perfectly fine... I thought it could be a radio issue and as I came back to India, to my surprise my old local SIM was working fine in 3G mode yet again!!! I thought somehow my problem was sorted!!! It worked for 2 days and it is back to the old problem now.. no 3G whatsoever!!!! Please help me guys!!!
I was just browsing and I read an samsung user facing the same problem.. The carried switched his normal SIM to USIM.. and it started working.. could this be a valid issue?
try this.

If changing the settings in Phone Info did not help I have to agree that you need a different sim or different APN settings.
The same SIM works with the same APN in other phones... and even if it was an APN issue then the data would have been a problem.. But i don't even get network in 3G..

Post as much detail about your problem, if you want to get help.
What version M8?
Is it modded (custom ROM, root, s-off) or stock?
What region/carrier, and more importantly, what bands used for 3G and LTE?
What does it say for OS number in bootloader screen?
You've verified the SIM works for 3G and/or LTE on another device?

According to the following webpage, the 3G band used by Airtel is Tanzania is 2100 MHz (900 and 1800 listed are only for GSM/2G): http://www.worldtimezone.com/gsm.html
As this webpage also lists " 4G LTE TTCL" I will have to assume you got the info from the same or similar website. And that doesn't tell us what band your carrier uses for LTE/4G.
The 3G band 2100 MHz is supported by your current firmware. Make sure you have properly input the APN info for your carrier in the phone's settings.
LTE is trickier. Even with the proper band support and APN, you might not get LTE using an M8 version not intended for your region/carrier. But 3G should be possible.
I did but the 4G symbols is showed on the network bar once in a while. And it does not last long when it shows up!
For the TTCL sim card i can not access the network at all since it does not allow 2G services!
The same here. I face the problem yesterday =)) LTE icon show for the first time and then after a reboot, 3G and LTE signal gone forever =)) Now Edge only. Trying to fix it.
