S3 only has edge network - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hello guys, haven't used an s3 in a while but my wifes s3 on cm10.2 only gets edge network. I've checked the apn settings and flashed a different ROM (issue started on infamous rom) but no luck. Could her radio be dead? I put the newest modem (mdl?) on it and nothing changed.

Check the IMEI and see if it's still in tact.

It's in Settings, About Device, Status. If it's zeroed out, shoot me a PM and I can help you fix it.

Not Registered on Network error

I recently received a T-Mobile Galaxy Note II (SGH-T889) and I can't seem to connect to T-Mobile's network. I checked the IMEI and according to T-Mobile, it is clean. I cannot make or receive calls/texts as I receive a "Not Registered by Network" error every time. Under the "Status" section in the Settings menu shows my phone number, but it says "Out of Service" under Service State and "Unknown" under Mobile Network Type as seen in the pictures. I was wondering if anyone could help me resolve this issue...Thanks!
Did you check with Tmobile directly? Third party sites that check IMEI often don't work. If you have service -service bars and data and still doesn't work, your IMEI is probably blocked. I can't think of anything else. Try to switch to different ROM

Try to replace the SIM card.

Try check the apn?

Are you just in a bad area for T-Mobile? Have you tried in a different location, or another phone from the same spot?
I tried changing SIM, the APN, and I know I am not in a bad T-Mobile area as I receive service on my S2 in the same spot.
You can also try to reflash stock firmware.

How would I do that and would that void the warranty?

You have to get the tar file and flash it via Odin. I don't believe it will void the warranty.

I have a question. If u have note 2. Then your factory warranty should be valid and cover ur type of problem. Since u have a S2 then use it temporary and use ur Samsung warranty to send the phone over.
But I have another suggestion. Take ur phone to store and let them use another sim and see what happens. Otherwise just send ur phone. And if happen that u have tmobile warranty then u will send them just ur phone without battery cover + battery it self + all accessories that came with the phone. And tmobile will send a brand new device in sealed box
I really hope that I helped. Thats all I know.
Good luck:beer:

Calling issues

I was wondering if anyone had some input to my problem. It just started not making or receiving calls. When I try to make a call it just either stays on 4g lte symbol and doesn't connect or the no signal appears and ends the call. It started out if the blue the other day when I was on amnosphear rom so I flashed clean rom to see if that would help and it seems like its worse now. Anyone have any suggestions for what I should try? I gotta get this to work

That might just be the case that the SIM card actually not working. Or it could also be the SIM tray itself..?? Hopefully that'll be your problem! If not then you might try a factory reset to see if that clears up your issues..

I've tried a factory reset a few times now and nothing seems to remedy the situation.

Try a new sim card ?

Yea I tried a new sim and still have the same issue. I called Samsung they said they would repair it. I thought they would just ship out a refurb. I had to get 3 or 4 refurbs from dell for the streak 5. Samsung said they don't send out refurbs

Samsung does not offer loaner/replacement phones.
You would have to talk to your carrier in regards to anything like that.
But look at it this way, your phone isn't working now and after about 2 weeks they'll have it working good as new free of charge as long as there's no physical or liquid damage on the device.
Your carrier will usually have replacement options under their warranty.
So you may want to try that

Yeah, even though I bought mine at Best Buy, I called AT&T for a Wifi issue and they sent me a new (refurb) Note right away.

Update
Was on the latest version of Jedi masterX...flashed back to stock before my last trip over the pod...no problems, Data worked great, slow....but great. While there i flashed back to jedi just for ****s and giggles...no international data. I flashed jedi master18, data was intermittent, back to stock, no problem. Problem traced to the rom...strange.

Data dropping on my Samsung galaxy note2 flashed to cricket.

I've been having a recent issue with my note 2 flashed to cricket wireless network. I must mention that I recently replaced the digitizer but I don't see this as being an issue even if it started when I replaced it. I have searched high and low for a list of prl that may help my issue but I can't find them. If there is anyone out there that can help me with this hellifyingly annoying problem it would be greatly appreciated. I reside in Tennessee.....Chattanooga to be precise. Cricket is super popular here. I love my note 2 but this is driving me batsh*t crazy. Thanks in advance.

You can find cricket prls at cricketusers.com but first try dialing *22804 and see if that helps out.

I tried that and it tells me the spc has exceeded.....something or other.

When it was flashed to cricket did the spc get changed to 000000? Without that I dont think crickets ota programming does not work.
