Hi Frineds,
Sorry for my poor English.. I have a very strange problem after updating new firmaware on my Arc. When i flash new firmaware, my phone doesn't connect to network. I get an error that "sim card preventing to connect with network". I have tried everything but always get this error with new firmaware. Therefore i am still on .145. I have unlocked bootloader, so i use FlashTool. I have tried Global Generic & Nordic versions of new firmaware.
Am i the only one having this problem? Can someone think of any possible reason for that? Any idea?
+1 I am Spanish and I have a Vodafone mobile
Does anyone know any possible reason? Any suggestion, please?
I updated my bro's Arc with FlashTool & he has not any problem with network.. I used my sim card in his Arc & it worked like a charm. What's wrong with my Arc?

Are you preserving your data on flashing? If so that might be the reason.

No, data wiped But Thanks Harfot you tried to help me out
I was also having trouble with flashing as follows,
After flashing (not wiping user data) generic 4.0.A.2.368 followed by DooMKernel v02 the hole lot was working - not very well but working. Problem was I was not able to install neither BusyBox nor APP2SD.
This was followed by 2 more tries flashing but it never worked but I was shure it could work.
So I flashed the original 3.0.A.2.181, used GingerBreak to root and installed BusyBox. It worked.
Then I again flashed generic 4.0.A.2.368 followed by actual DooMKernel. It worked and BusyBox was still working. Then I installed APP2SD and on reboot that part worked also. At last I restored my user apps with Titanium and the were all moved to the new ext3 partion on the SD card.
Later I have flashed the latest two DooMKernels without any problems.
It might be worth for you to try reflashing.
Reflashing the firmware should solve your problem.
Thanks Harfot & Xtacy! i have actually reflashed my phone multiple times.
1) First Global Generic with FlashTool..
2) Tried Again Global Generic with Flashtool (Without Sim Card in Mobile)
3) Tried WotanServer & flashed Nordic version..
4) Re-locked bootloader & flashed again Global Generic
5) Flashed Nordic Telia version
6) Re-locked bootloader again & changed customization number to Telia Sweden & flashed through SEUS
7) Falshed UK Generic
And result is the same: No network connection
Do you have the possibility to try with another SIM card?
I relocked bootloader today & flashed phone through SEUS first. When i started phone, i got network connection but after just 5 minutes disconnected again & nothing helped. I repaired phone with PC Companion but result is the same..
When i say network connection, i mean GSM Connection.. I can't get GSM connection & therefore can't call someone or send sms..
@Harfot: First i used my SIM in my bro's Arc which is on newest firmaware, I got GSM connection on his Arc with my Sim card.. (Nothing wrong with my sim?)
Then i used his sim card (it was from another operator) in my flashed Arc (on .368) & didn't get any problem, got GSM connection :-/ Now i am confused. My sim card & my phone don't like each other or what?

Well, now I am puzzled too.
Try cleaning contacts in phone and suface of sim (no liquid). Try pressing sim card firmly when booting phone.
The solution for me was to change the SIM
@Harfot: Thanks, I'll try again tonight & will follow your suggestion
@neoduende: Thanks, I have actually ordered my service provider to send a new sim card
I was running the Taiwan ROM on my phone but went back to the Japan version when the Marshmallow update was released. Now the phone is screwed
It started off with the phone asking for a 'Network subsystem code' so the phone was essentially network locked and could only be accessed if the SIM was removed. I re-flashed the Taiwan ROM thinking it would go back to how it was but it still asked for the unlock code.
Maybe this was where I went wrong, but I bought an unlock code from eBay, entered it but after it rebooted it still asked for the code.
I tried a few TWRP backups but nothing worked and now it doesn't recognise a SIM at all. Nothing.
It's randomly restarting and I've also noticed that the IMEI number isn't showing up in the settings.
I have no idea what to do so if you have any ideas, please let me know...
Possible Fix
Try to flash misc.img. Its supposed to fix simlock for the taiwan version, and its the same image for both. You can find it at the bottom of my conversion guide.
Don't worry, you should flash your phone return to rom stock KDDI 5.0.2
then flash file fix sim pass: 8jtv
by adb change.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash misc misc.img
fastboot reboot
or unlock sim by xtc2clip
I have got no signal after I change my sim in KDDI 6.0 rom. I am sure that my sim card (UK sim) is not damaged, but my phone is not able to register to the network. I am now thinking of flashing back to JP 5.0.2 again
How about Taiwan?

If you dont need nfc, the taiwan ROM is better in every other way.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/butterfly-3/development/stock-rom-stock-5-0-2-cure-t3356875
or if you NEED to have nfc, you may need to manually scan for network(s) in settings and after that replace the apns-conf.xml file with one from cyanogenmod or any other universal rom, because data only works on its known network (au). You will also need to change from SMS to Messages apk and maybe change the call center number. (stock htc text messaging app)

Did you solve it finally? I had the same problem, but I solved It by flashing a ROM on fastboot.
Hello,
As i am new to this forum and i am not sure that this will be replied. Still here is a little problem. Couple of months back my small brother bought HTC Desire 816 Dual sim Indian Variant (Qualcomm) phone which Cellular network was not working. Going deep in problems i came to find out that it has baseband version was unknown & IMEI was null. Some sites on google told flashing wrong ROM can cause this problem so find good ROM and Flash it. I Unlocked bootloader flashed custom ROM(Cynogenmod Nightly) via TWRP recovery. Still same problem. I tried that indian backup file tried different ROM but none helped. And yes when i tried to flash kitkat or lolipop or Marshmellow the phone just keeps restarting. Now i am using resurection Remix rom.
PS. Fastboot details Attached
Thanks
Please Help !
I´m form Germany and got an SM-N920A from ebay with Android 6. It worked with an O2 simcard. It had no bloatware installed.
I had no ATT Logo by booting.... that was befor flashing nougat with odin.
Now i already have Android Nougat on the device, but can´t use the phone.
The wlan works, but in this ROM i have no symbol for the mobile data anymore.
i think the serialnumber also changed....
i tried to flash an other ROM, but with the same result.
Is there an chance to get connection/ use my sim, or to flash the original ROM without bloatware from ATT.
I hope there ist someone who solved the same problem.
Thx
Hello, I flashed the latest Firmware with the Sony Mobile Flasher set to pro mode. I saw the warning because of simlock but there was nothing to see about simlock. Now the phone does not recognize any simcard. I flashed two other firmwares without success. Now I flashed the Bundle for Sony Xperia M5(E5603). FW release : 30.2.A.1.21. Customization : Customized DE
Has anyone an idea what I can do now?
Thank you.
Solved. An other SIM-Card worked.
