Sorry but you just posted in the Sprint section. Our devices are Cdma not GSM. Also you posted the question in the General section when it should be in the Q&A section.

yeah it's definitely in the wrong forum as the cdma versions can't be readily unlocked and don't utilize removeable sim cards... if i had to venture a guess, i would say that something went wrong or didn't finish in the unlocking process and some of the original carrier info is still being utilized by the modem... sorry can't be of more help.

i have a question about galaxy nexus . after i rooted my GN , it does not read my sim card. (the phone is verizon lte and i have a t-mobile microsim) i checked the bootloader and the lock state is unlocked.
any ideas of what i should do now>
did you ever find out your answer? i unrooted my vzw galaxy and now it won't read a sim card.
try a normal simcard... not a microsim with an adapter
You have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus, which is carrier locked to Verizon, so your T-Mobile SIM won't work on it. The Verizon Galaxy Nexus is a CDMA phone, T-Mobile is a GSM carrier, so even if you carrier unlocked the phone, it still wouldn't work. And last but certainly not least, Your bootloader may be unlocked, but that doesn't mean that the SIM is unlocked; like I said earlier, that Verizon Galaxy Nexus is carrier locked.

How were you planning on using a CDMA/LTE phone on a network that only does GSM/HSPA? Not quite compatible. Different radios.

If you open up another thread with your specific issue we might be able to help you out but I don't want to derail this thread going into details about a completely different problem.
As for OP, that SIM will not work in any CDMA Galaxy Nexus because it is not a "global" phone. It only supports Verizon Wireless SIM cards.
Hi all,
I have an I927 with a standard IMEI (0049...) after unlocking it with Z3X box.
The phone is an AT&T I927 and before unlocking I flashed the rogers kernel and then rooted it (as per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1378082) all this worked fine.
I have a back-up of nv_data.bin before unlocking and I have tried placing it back but this phone has some sort of weird extra checks which doesn't seem to exists in other android phones such as I9100 and the IMEI stays broken.
Anybody out there with the same problem and some ideas on about how to repair it?
I'm currently living in Peru and I was using the phone with Claro and it worked for like 2 months but since a few days it seems they blocked the IMEI (can't logon onto the network anymore, and sim works fine in other phone).
Also I've been searching for original AT&T kernel to put that back and then try to put nv_data.bin back to see if that makes any difference (shouldn't but I'm kinda desperate here)
thanks
Did u fix the problem or still have generic IMEI
Could you fix this?
i have the same problem but my phone still on ....im reading ur post it seems like u have root problem (might be mistaken) try to update super user and ur busy box ..by the way what rom u r using.
after u update everything try to put the files u backed up back ,reboot , ...feed back please
So I'm stressing out cause i've been researching all day and have came up with a million answers so i decided i should just make a post and hope for the best.
I have a US Cellular Galaxy S3 SCH-R530U 4.3.1 ROOTED.
I already have a Straight Talk SIM Card in it, however it has no service hooked up. None of the hidden codes to unlock my SIM is working on 4.3.1 and they just keep saying No Network Found
I've read that i can somehow flash my phone to get it to work with Straight Talk but i dont know how? I know it can work.
I just need to basically unlock my SIM so that it can work on Straight Talks network.

Straight R530U and US cellular S3 R530U are identical handsets. Once you have ota 4.3, nothing can be done to revive the hidden menu for SIM programming. I do a lot of USC S3 on international CDMA SIM programming but ever since it has the 4.3 update and knox bootloader, everything inside is locked. no downgrade or roll-back.

Is the device damaged ??
If not...you can carrier unlock the device to use with the ATT network...
There are numerous threads that cover these steps...g
Edit:
Start here for carrier unlock...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34661189
Once you succeed with unlock.
.you'll need root and recovery to flash a radio image....and set your APN for the proper network..
Do some searches....you'll find everything you need....g
Noticed your other thread about changing the SIM holder...
That's likely not the issue as stated above....g
thnx very much i'll tell u about the news
please help me
the servicemode screen become black no any choices after i played in it roughly

i flashed the original rogers rom but invain
My friend brought an original refurbish Samsung N910v android version 5.01 which was working with GSM 2G if not 3G until when I tried to update to new version android v6.0.1. In the menu>setting>about when I checked first before anything it showed me N910 F v5.01 but in boot mode Odin it was N910v.The problem started when I just typed *#9090# the phone immediately started reboot loop. I have managed to unlock the boot loader and root the phone installed custom rom version 6.0.1 by Paul Pizz rom VRU2CPJ2.r-1 but still can not have 2G or 3G GSM network. Please help to revive the phone again whether it meant to go back to 5.0.1 that would work with gsm cause am full stack now.
Have you checked to ensure you have the APN information in place? I have a Galaxy Note 4 N910V now (just got it a few days ago) and when I put my T-Mobile SIM in it from the very first time I have to manually put in the APN data - on custom ROMs it's usually picked up and there automagically but not always so, my suggestion is that you check to make sure your APN information is currently there as it should be.
Settings - More - Cellular networks - Access Point Names - make sure the one you need to be using is selected and if it's not then you'll have to put that info in manually and save it.
As for the actual model number, take the battery out and see what the model number is on the sticker in the battery compartment area - if the sticker isn't there then it could be a device that someone has done some experimenting with because that info can be changed. The sticker should be there, of course, but sometimes people take 'em out when they're mucking around with stuff, who knows.
Initially the phone is from Verizon but was working on 2G ,3G GSM network with N910F firmware version 5.0.1.it was working on airtel network until when I wanted to update. May I have the Apn settings,please

The APN will be your network. Are trying to use Verizon? If so, you should have a spot to tic the VZWINTERNET. If not, then you have a sim card issue.
ziggy the how do i sort out the sim card issue ,Since phone says this sim card is not from verizon

Is the sim from verizon? If you have a good account go to a corporate store and have them give you a new one. It's free.
Also, what are your APN settings and I will compare to mine. Everything works on mine.
the fone I have came from china ,am in Africa and remember I told you it was working woth N910f firmware version 5.0.1.All am asking is there anyway I could make this fone work again on Gsm network, cause all it says after re flash is the card is not from verizon
I now rooted this n910v android version 5.1.1 still no network, am in Africa where there is 2G&3G GSM network, how would I make this fone to work again with the gsm network now that I rooted. On the network bar I get a circle with a cross ,how to make this work

- N910VVRU2CPJ2_FullFirmware_NoAboot<--- Full Framework with no aboot so you will not re-lock bootloader, but will unroot and restore back to 100% stock. once your on the full stock check if your connections are working fine, if they are then install custom rom, otherwise change the sim card
go in settings, connections and select network mode to global, should be fine
