I've tried JB 4.1 and 4.1.1 and both versions give me the same strange phenomenon . Once in a while the pin code screens pops up and disappears immediately.
Sometimes the pin code screens stays up for a while, entering my pin code gives an invalid pin code message.
Inserting my wife's sim card does not solve this problem.
I do not have this problem running ICS.
Here's a video showing the bug (bit shaky):

Anyone knows about this problem?
radio version?
Did you flash the new radio? I'm also on 4.1.1 and am not seeing this issue, but I didn't update the radio firmware...

I did not flash my radio.
I get the exact same issue. How every its only when I'm using my 0044 global sim. My UK orange sim is fine. Also only happens when I try to make a call.
Currently running JB 4.1.0 port.

I have it when i'm working with the phone. I don't know if it could be the sim card since i don't have this issue with 4.04.
flash the radio
I'd suggest trying to flash the radio firmware & see what happens... New radio is supposed to work with both ICS & JB.

Well that is the latest radio available I'm afraid. If it doesn't work for you, you could always try to downgrade to a previous version and see if that helps in your case...
It's early but so far it did not happen. This might just be the solution.

or try flashing a tmobile radio. as far as ive read u can pretty much flash any rom for the note 2, doesnt matter what carrier its for. the difference would be with the radio thats included with the rom. in other words... an At&t rom will work on the tmobile note 2 but you will have to flash a tmobile radio to get service. same for other carrier roms.... no harm done

Our Note II currently utilizes HSPA+ instead of LTE which is just different types of wireless technology used by other carriers. When you flashed the incorrect rom, it probably also included the modem for that particular carrier (not tmobile) which caused the no signal. Try flashing a tmobile radio which will be through your selected recovery (TWR or CWM). Below is a link where you can download the tmobile radio.

If you flash, use this guide,
T-Mobile. Just flash ROM
AT&T w/radio. Flash T-Mobile radio
AT&T w/o radio. Just flash ROM
Sprint. Flash radio and kernel, put apn management tool in /system/app
I assume Verizon would be like Sprint but I have not personally tried.

Yea I don't know why but devs seem to be including modems in their roms more and more. It used to be standard practice to not include the modem. There is no real reason to do so. But that's what has been going on so my advice is to check the ROM thread to see if it includes a ROM. They usually say so because like I said it is not standard procedure to do so. So they usually let people know. But if you do flash a non tmo ROM make sure you have a flash able modem just in case.
Hi all, so I'm in quite the predicament. I can't seem to reestablish a mobile connection via Verizon at all since I've overwritten the stock ROM with Cyanogen. I have Inc2, now loaded with CM7, awaiting some help.
First I unlocked the bootloader and flashed CWM Recovery.
Next I flashed Build 4 CM10 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934288 <--check it out here.
I couldn't establish any network connection whatsoever. So i wiped and flashed CM9 with the hopes it would be more stable. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1932573 <--again check that one out.
Again, no network connection. Lastly, I reverted to CM7 (because it was the last stable release directly from Cyanogen). http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/index.php?title=Vivow_Info <--looky here.
I've searched far and wide, trying everything possible. From simply switching on/off airplane mode to manually typing in the Verizon APN. I just can't establish network connection now...and the kicker - I forgot to backup the stock ROM so I'm currently stuck. Please help
This thread may be of some help. Didn't do me much justice however. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691017
Bumping. Somebody please help...Also if anyone has a stock ROM they could share, that'd do fine as well. I'm curious if stock ROM would re-enable the radio (if that's the actual problem).

Goes to show how desperate I'm becoming.
Have you tried changing your mobile network? Settings > more> network mode
Been there. You can try different radios from here, but BE CAREFUL. Take the following precautions:
Because you're on Verizon, only download 'x.x.01.xxxx' radios.
After putting the ZIP file on the SD card, verify the MD5 hash to ensure the file didn't get corrupted during download or during transfer to the SD card.
Plug the phone into your charger before installing. You don't want it shutting off during install.
Don't flash the same radio that your phone already has installed.
If all else fails, try the stock 2.3.3 RUU from HTC. If you can find a working download link to that, please share.

I've tried everything in the books. Manually setting my APN according to the Verizon settings. Also did trial and error booting and rebooting each network type to no avail.
A few things I noticed in the CM9 ROM (maybe bugs?):
The preferred network mode typically defaults to GSM/WCDMA upon reboot
The APN I create often disappear upon reboot.
Mobile Networks>Network Operators will either search endlessly or sometimes find both AT&T and T-Mobile as options, both of which won't actually connect as I have a Verizon SIM.
And in response to Slinkwyde:
To verify the MD5 hash, what needs to be done more specifically? (I'm learning as I go ) Did flashing a radio do the fix for you? I'll try this suggestion and post results.

Yes, flashing a radio worked for me. The simplest way would be to use an MD5 checker app. Use the app to make sure the file on your SD card matches the MD5 value given in the radio thread I linked to.
One more precaution: Don't ever flash the same radio version that your phone is already using. That caused problems with the original Incredible and might also cause problems with the Incredible 2. To see what radio version you have, go to Settings and look around in About phone, Phone info, or something to that effect. "Baseband" is another word for radio.

Short version: For Verizon, you want CDMA with EvDO.
Longer overview: CDMA vs GSM, and what it means for the Incredible 2
Verizon Wireless and Sprint use CDMA. AT&T and T-Mobile use GSM. CDMA is popular in the United States, but around the world GSM is far more common. All GSM phones use SIM cards, but most CDMA phones don't. The two kinds of CDMA phones that do have SIM cards are world phones (phones with both CDMA and GSM) and LTE phones (faster data speeds).
The Incredible 2 is a world phone (without LTE) and comes with a Vodafone SIM for overseas travel. This Vodafone SIM also has Verizon Wireless branding on it. The Verizon Wireless company is jointly owned by Verizon and Vodafone, a European carrier based in the UK. Verizon world phones have to be unlocked to use AT&T or T-Mobile, because Verizon doesn't want their customers switching to a competitor.
SIM cards make it easy for GSM users (not you) to use their carrier account in another phone. They can just swap the SIM. For CDMA carriers (such as Verizon), swapping service to a different phone requires contacting the carrier.

You don't need the sim card at all then, you're CDMA. If you're not on it already i would recommend flashing the latest ics firmware, it can be found in the ICS leak ROM thread posted by nitsuj17 , it includes the newest radio

Okay so what you both are suggesting are to just install the firmware, assuming I am already running the CM9 ROM? Because the firmware includes the radio. And this is done by renaming the firmware to PG32IMG and flashing it through hboot? Would this be an easier course of action than installing a radio alone? My phone is S-ON and if I'm correct, S-OFF needs to be active to install a radio.
Yes, you can install the firmware to get the radio, and the file name needs to be PG32IMG.zip for hboot. S-OFF is generally required for this sort of thing, yes.

I'm currently trying to downgrade Inc2 so I can S-Off in order to flash either new firmware or radio. I am following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1726134 and cant seem to download the necessary RUU 2.3.3 for Inc2. It seems as if the downloads link is dead. Can anybody link to such a file? I cant seem to find one anywhere.
EDIT: Found a stock (or as close to stock I could find) ROM for INC2 >> http://d-h.st/I2g
Also, I may have a potential reason as to why I'm having this ***** of a problem. I originally unlocked bootloader using the HTCdev tool. At the time it was my understanding that the process did not matter as long as the results were the same. However it seems now that using their tool makes it so you can't flash radios and need to extract and separately flash ROM kernels. So does this mean flashing any of the CM ROM's I tried never included the radio portion?
Just stabbing at ideas. Feel free to verify/call me out.

Roms NEVER include a radio, its always separate. something weird has happened to you, I'm sure flashing new radio would fix it for you but you're dev unlocked which is gay Lol. When you flashed the cyanogen ROMs did you pull kernel and flash like you were supposed to, if not i can't believe you got it to boot but that may be a problem also.

If it helps, here is the process that I have used every time I flash anew ROM, working every time (excluding the radio of course.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujFWZbgj6bY
Because I HAD (I actually just reverted back and am currently getting S-OFF to flash a radio) the HTCdev unlock, I manually booted the boot.img after entering recovery and wiping/formatting all the necessary things. Skimming the video might give you a better idea.
However I'm now hoping S-OFF will allow me to reroot, flash CWM, CM9, and of course a radio. Currently in the process of trying to run Revolutionary.
Please direct me to a thread that explains this if it exists. I am not a newb to flashing but still lack some knowledge about it.
I unlocked my gnex, flashed twrp, flashed superuser, then flash the jan 14th nightly cm10.1 which worked well for me.
Then i decide that i needed to flash a radio for some stupid reason(obviously the wrong one) leading to an endless battle to retrieve my connection.
I used odin to get to ics stock. I am running ics stock and still no service connection. I can see my imei but..... network, mobile network type, my phone number, min, prl version, and iccid are all unknown.
EDIT:
I flashed a different stock rom from odin. Stock ICS. Then flashed the radio that came with it and now..
Voice calls work though i feel like the reception sucks
Sms works great as far as i can tell
4g works great
3g doesnt exist at all.
I think i may just be missing the radio for 3g. (cdma?)
Im afraid of flashing anything before knowing what will actually work but i need 3g.

After getting it mostly working with ics I flashed cm10.1 but did not flash another radio.
This confuses me because i thought i needed an updated radio to go with the updated rom. From ics to 4.2.1.. But instead of needing another radio it worked the same as it did with ics.
Is the ga02 going to be what i need with cm10.1? Also does it work better from fastboot or twrp? Does it matter if i flash a cdma or an lte radio first?
Ga02 is not needed but it's the latest radio.
They all work but different people prefer different radios.
Many are flashable using twrp. Just got to find them.
Also make sure the radios you flash are for your carrier.
Hello all. I bought Galaxy Nexus L700 a few days ago. It was used.
And I have a problem now. After it boot up, I have a message "no SIM-card, No Service" After I change Mobile Network from CDMA to LTE/CDMA and back to CDMA I have a signal. But no 3G.
I know that this issue is available at Verizon Gnex until you insert SIm card. I'm confused because there is no SIM card.
Does anybody know how can i fix it? I tried flash factory image from link above, but with the same result.
Please, help!

Well the m7vzw is made for Verizon networks. If it works at all on any other carrier is just a bonus. Most people haven't had much luck getting this phone to work with other networks.
For now everything working fine except NFC. I got message from mywallet app that sim card isn't NFC capable.
On ViperOne I still can't make phone calls.
