Hi,
I just was given a Note 2. The problem with it is that it doesn't detect the sim card (even though one is inserted). It's a GT-N7105 and apparently has been unlocked to work with T-mobile.
An IMEI number is listed when I go to about phone >status. Here is what it says on the "status" page
Network: Unknown
Signl strength: -105 dBm 4asu
Mobile Network type: Unknown
Service State: out of service
My phone number: unknown
What have I done is hard factory reset the device, rooted it, installed a new version of Bliss Rom but that hasn't fixed it. What should I do next?

Hey guys,
My phone stopped working about a week or so ago and I tried everything to fix it, nothing worked, stumbled upon this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045869
And decided to check if my IMEI was blocked (it was), I called Tesco Mobile, asked them to unblock it, which they did but I cannot make any texts or calls. I have tried:
-Reflashing radio
-Reflashing ROM
-Factory Reset
-Leaving battery out overnight, putting it in the next day
-Tried SIM in other phones - it works in other phones
-Reinstalled stock Sense ROM
The strange thing is, I can use the internet but cannot make texts/calls. Advanced info via *#*#4636#*#* shows:
IMEI: same as on phone
Phone Number: correct number listed
Current Network: Unknown
Singal Strength: 0
Location: LAC = unknown CID = unknown
Neighbouring CID = unknown
Roaming = Not roaming
GSM service: Disconnected
GPRS service: Connected <<< WHY IS THIS CONNECTED AND GSM ISN'T?!
Network type: unknown
Message waiting: false
Call redirect: false
Radio resets: 0
Data attempts: 0
Data successes: 0
If I try to change the network to anything other than GSM only then it just reverts back to GSM only. The SIM works in any other phone, my phone IS unlocked, was working perfectly prior to being IMEI blocked, so what appears to be the issue? I called up Tesco to confirm the bar is removed and they said it is, so, what gives?
EDIT: I can happily browse the internet while out and about - no wifi, definitely GPRS as I use it while I am away from my home wifi/any wifi I connect to. I am confused as to why I can use GPRS but cannot use GSM...
maybe bad sim?

SIM works in other phones and didn't have a problem with it previously... As in I can make calls and texts if I use other phones but only internet in the HTC Desire... :S
Dears,
I am running a Samsung GT-N7105 with CyanoMod 10.2.0-RC1-t0lte
Working very well.
I have updated it to cm-11-20140127-NIGHTLY (4.2.2) using two different possibilities:
- cmupdater
- Rom Manager
On both case, after the first reboot, there is no Sim card unlock popup ....
When I am going to Status, I read this:
Network: Unknown
Signal Strength: 2147483647 dBm 255 asu
Mobile Network Type: Unknown
Service status: Out of service
Mobile network state: Disconnected
IMEI: Unknown
The APNs are completely empty ... There is nothing there ...
And link to my provider (sonera Finland) I don't know what to fill ... And how to fill it.
SELinux is on "Enforcing"
What can I do ?
Thx
ps: on my attachement file, this part is missing for my phone settings.

Flash back CM 10.2 and upgrade CWM recovery to latest version before flashing CM11.
After first rooting my Samsung S4 mini GT-I9195 and installing first the CM 11 found here
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=serranoltexx
and then trying again with carbons ROnm here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642488
I loads and boots fine without error however I have no mobile signal
If I search for networks in settings it simply gives a message of 'error while searching for networks'
Is there anything I can do?
I really need a stock rom to revert too as I did not take a backup being a brand new phone
I am not certain of the phones country of origin.

Make sure you have activated the sim cards, they are deactivated by default.
Thank you but I haven't changed sim cards and it was working before I flashed to the new rom.
It also wouldn't likely cause the error im seeing.
I suspect its a permission issue because i notice when I try to update the APN it does not save.
eitherway I really need a stock ROM to get my phone back working
can anyone point me in the right direction>?
sometimes after having a tinker about it prompts me on startup "new sim card added" restart to activate.
But after restarting i just get the exact same message = again I suspect a permissions issue.

Hi,
I recently bought a second hand smartphone Galaxy S4 GT-9505 which according to IMEI info was first delivered on 2013 r. and uses a Qualcom Snapdragon 600 APQ 8064T chipset and is powered by a 4.2 Jelly Bean android version. I use a French Orange SIM card that works normally on other phones.
I installed the recommended version of LineageOS for this device.
The installation went smoothly and the system boots normally. Nevertheless, after booting I can see a barred SIM card icon on top of the screen.
In the Mobile network settings only one entry is available, i. e. :
- Data roaming is greyed and not accessible
- Preferred Network type is greyed and not accessible
- Connected line identification is accessible
- Access Point Names is greyed and not accessible
- Network Operators is greyed and not accessible
Finding a tuto dealing with this kind of issue, I phoned *#*#4636#*#* . Then I could go to Phone info menu and there I could see this :
IMEI : my imei
Phone number : unknown
Current Network :
Signal strenght :
Voice Service:
Data Service: Disconnected
Voice Network Type: Unknown
Data Network Type: Unknown
Voice Call Status:
Roaming:
Set Preferred Network Type: here is a dropdown list. According to the tuto I tried every value but all of them failed to revive anything.
Is this a known issue and what can I do ?
Same can't find any info. I am using a oneplus T6
