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 ...

Its the country where its for, but you can use both.

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 ?!

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 ?!

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...

same problem on xperia play...i get error mm#6,but phone isn't locke nor reported stolen...i have the yellow triangle in the status bar at left, no signal, i can't make calls or text , but i have data connection, i can go to play store and download apps, browser facebook etc..any fix for this?
I'm probably not the only person to experience these problems on the R800x, and I couldn't find any other threads pertaining to a fix for my specific problem. I went to Verizon and Sony, and got frustrated very fast with them not even remotely having a clue on how to help.
My first issue is after rooting my phone and unlocking the bootloader, I flashed an ICS 4.0.1 ROM to my phone, it works great!
Problem is, I didn't realize the difference between the R800i and R800x. So now my phone lost its Radio image/Baseband Version, making my not have any servies (1x/2g/3g or bars) It's Wi-Fi only right now.
I read into flashing Radio images back to the phone so it can access the services, but I can't find one specifically for my phone. Any help there?
My second, and biggest issue with the phone is it's just not taking a charge. I've been flip flopping batteries with my other R800x to keep this one going. I tried a few things to fix that, but they just don't work and I'm tired of going in threads and reading crap and trying things that don't work.
Basically, I want my phone back to working order again, while keeping the ICS firmware.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
THINGS I HAVE TRIED TO FIX IT
-Flashing back to original firmware
-Adding a new charger file into .bin on phone itself
-Factory reset

You can't have radio working because the rom was meant for GSM xperia plays. If you want ICS I sugget purchasing a GSM xperia play. Otherwise stick with stock to have everything working.

I used a flashtool, yes. I assume that was bad? It was the only way I could find for the R800x.
That's not where it messed up and lost my baseband and radio signals. When I got the kernel, then flashed an ICS ROM to the phone, that's where it removed my radio signals.

If you'd read what I put, none of that worked. I know radio isn't meant to work on a GSM ROM, buying a whole new phone was a silly suggestion of you.
first try flashing a zeusc(r800x) rom, because when you have a zeus(r800i) rom installed the radio won't work the way your are explaning.
Can you link me to it? I really don't feel like getting the wrong file yet again.

Just want to clarify have you tried flashing the 2.3.3 Verizon R800x FTF? When you mention 2.3.3/2.3.4 flashed firmwares I am guessing you mean that? If you have flashed successfully and still having issues then I dont know off hand why it wouldnt work just FTFing (lol) back.

that is because it is flashed from recovery
if you don't have recovery flash the boot.img in the zip using fastboot, then powerup the phone and press vol- during bootup when the notifaction light is on
Did you try flashing markypythons ICS converter? If you did, then flash R800x's baseband.
Yes I've flashed the FTF files. No luck doing so. DubleJay I have it, yet I haven't flashed it yet. The problem I have is not able to find the baseband to flash for this phone in specific.
No one's figured anything about my charging issue yet?

I just bought a GT-N7100 (International Note 2) from someone who bought it Taiwan a few weeks ago and when he got home, couldn't use it because he has Verizon. I have AT&T and don't mind not having LTE as I don't use data too much on the go so it was perfect for me. Although I told him I wanted the stock Touchwiz Firmware when I bought it, a MIUI ROM was loaded when I got it. When I inserted my SIM card it worked on the ATT Network and I had no issues for about an hour. I went to Samsung-updates.com to get the stock firmware and reflashed the phone to run Touchwiz.
Well, when I flashed the new/stock Firmware, the boot animation got stuck in a loop and I let it run for a good 30 mins before shutting the phone off doing a factory reset in Recovery Mode. After resetting, the phone booted up and I was able to set everything up and use my wifi at home, but I was unable to connect to any mobile network for phone calls or data (couldn't even call out to ATT customer service). Ever since I tried flashing the stock Firmware (I used ODIN to flash the zip I got from samsung-updates.com) I cannot connect to the AT&T network. It is not an issue with the SIM card as I've tried my wife's SIM with the same issue and my SIM works fine on her phone. I've since tried flashing other ROMs that are both Touchwiz based and CM10 based, including: Alliance ROM, MIUI, CyanogenMod 10, and Paranoid Android. Each ROM has had different APN settings that I have tried to no effect. I've also researched a few APNs that I've entered manually with still no results. The phone does me no good if I can't use it away from my house on a network. PLEASE HELP!!
Are you reffering to network as in data or network inc voice calls as well.

When I check the IMEI, it matches the box and the back of the phone except it has a /01 after it. So it reads 3536.......86 / 01. I'm not sure if that matters at all. But if not then the IMEI is good. The serial number also matches the back of the phone. From all the reading I've done, it's something to do with the EFS Folder but I don't really know where to go from here.
So from this we know your efs is not messed up and you have the correct imei set on the phone efs. From what I read so far you really need to call network operators and ask them by giving your imei number to see why your phone is not getting registered to the network. Do you think it might be blacklisted stolen lost phone?

You are my last hope before going to repair center
Thanks forward
To resolve this network/not registered prob, if you guys on 4.3 sammy.
Here is the solution

Hi will this work on 4.4? If not could you help me? Because I can't connect my N7100 to ATT ugh
A bit of background on my device - I have a D855 from HK. I flashed the rooted Lollipop by @Skin1980 but decided to go back to KK. While on L, my LTE didn't work. Now that I've downgraded to KK, if I have the phone set to LTE/GSM/WCDMA, the phone will boot up with LTE working. As soon as I go into the Phone Info screen to change it to WCDMA preferred, it will go on H+. If I want to go back to LTE, the phone pick up the LTE signal for half a second and then lose it. The only way I can get it to get back on LTE is if I reboot the phone.
The reason I do this is because I get a better H+ signal in most places than I do the LTE signal so I leave it on H+ to conserve battery life as I'm mostly on wifi and I change it to LTE when I need to download large files when I'm not on wifi.
I have already flashed the KK Modem file that was provided by @Skin1980. This never happened before I upgraded to L and then downgraded back to KK. Does this happen to anyone else who has downgraded and does anyone know how to fix this?
Try flashing the kk modem a couple more times, for some reason modems can be a bit tricky and dont always flash properly, can some times take several flashes before they seem to stick
if this doesnt work then maybe the modem is for the international d855 and not for the hk rom your using?

I tried installing it several times but it didn't help. I wasn't aware there was more than one modem for different regions. I was always on an HK modem before and it works here in the UK. But after I applied the KK modem skin1980 provided for downgrading to KK from L, I started seeing this issue.
If I turn the radio off and then back on, it'll lock onto an LTE signal some of the time. But if I set the modem to LTE only, it will find the LTE signal for half a second, then lose it and cannot find it again....
Well it sounds like the same sort of problem some get using the lp modem on kk rom, maybe try installing a custom rom like cloudy if your models supported, failing that try a full wipe and flash kdz again

That's actually the version I flashed. Thanks for your help.
I've been using quite a few custom roms and with none Mobile Network had worked. I've been to Orange office to try my SIM card on another phone to see if it's my phone's fault or SIM card doesn't let me to connect to the internet and it turned out that everything worked on another phone.
I am probably running 20B stock firmware with CrDroid rom on the top of that.
I read that newest 20E stock firmware fixed some problems for Europe Orange users so I thought that flashing this update may fix this issue. Will the internet work on custom roms as well or will I have to stay on stock to have it working?

Sure, I tried changing it many times. It definitely is not an issue, it's more like something related to phone's firmware I think that phone doesn't want to connect to mobile data.
I'm downloading stock 20e firmware and I'll see how it's going to work after install.
