Hi Guys, I am having a weird problem that needs your help. I have been using my unlocked Nitro HD (P930) with the official stable CM9 rom. After hearing all the goods of miui, i gave it a try (with full wipe, data/factory reset, cache partition, and Dalvik Cache). After flashing it, the first thing that poped out said the network is locked and the page for sim unlock was shown. I thought the miui might re-lock my sim so I entered my unlock code. Then it said, "andorid.com has stopped". All i could do is to forget the unlock and went on to the miui home screen. After that my phone cannot pick up any signal at all. I used nano backup to restore my original CM9, everything seemed to work fine but it just couldn't pick up any signal. I went to mobile network settings to select the netwrok operators, it failed everytime. I tried entering 2945#*930# in dialer, it only said "Mobile network not available".
I tried to flash the same miui or my CM9 rom again, but my phone still couldn't pick up any signal.
Thanks if anyone can help.

Have you checked your APN settings?
you may need to reflash another baseband as CWM doesn't backup baseband so your phone failed even after restoring. I think you can find the cwm-flashable baseband on the forum.

I set and save the APN but the APNs page remains blank after I have entered things like PROXY, MCC, etc.

Thanks for the reply. I found Drumist's threat about those CWM flashable baseband. I tried the v10j and the v10f, but none of them work. Sorry for asking this dumb question but what should I do next?

Someone else commented before about their phone re-locking itself without explanation. The solution was just to unlock it again. I'm assuming you still have the unlock code?
The problem is that custom ROMs are incapable of unlocking the phone. You have to return to a stock ROM to perform the unlock, after which you can then return to a custom ROM. The stock ROM can be a CWM-flashable version for convenience.

1. 2945#30# is to bring up the sim lock page, where you can enter your unlock code. But it seems to me it doesn't work when your phone is already unlocked or you have a custom rom (just like what Drumist said)
2. I wiped it every time I flash a new rom just to make sure my phone is complete "clean", but I have no idea what it does :silly:
NO signal from the operator network

Seems you are having the same problem as I do. Simply flash back to stock rom and then enter the sim unlock code again, then your phone should be back to normal.

are you still on the ZV8 Firmware?
So here's my problem. I finally got my code to unlock my network on my Canadian rogers phone but I've realized that I need stock rom to be able to unlock and I am now on Cyanogenmod 12.1 android 5.1.1 with the I747MUMUEND3 baseband and MJB bootloader (I believe). I remember flashing a new baseband/modem to be able to get the CM 12.1 nightlies.
But now I'm stuck in France with a SIM card that doesn't work and I don't think I can downgrade from what I'm seeing in the forums. Once your beyong 4.3 there seem no downgrading/stock possibilities...
Am I stuck with a Galaxy S3 wifi tablet?!
You can flash the latest 4.4.2 stock ROM from sammobile.com, perform a factory wipe, boot phone with non-Rogers sim, enter the sim unlock code.

Sorry to ask you but I can't seem to find it. I've been searching and I found firmware
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/9102/I747UCDLK3_I747ATTDLK3_XXX/ but
I feel like that might not be it... And I'm scared to brick my phone!
The Rogers s3 is the Sgh-i747m.
And this gets it down to just the i747M releases by Rogers.

Unfortunately I'm now stuck on boot...
Nevermind I had to factory wipe wich I did and now I have successfully unlocked my phone. Thanks a bunch guys. Much appreciated!
So, I was given a i747 A T & T model for my daughter. I was able to get TWRP flashed and made a back up of the stock ROM. I then proceeded to flash CM12.1. Now, my question is this; I got the unlock code from the original owner and was trying to use it but it kept coming back as an incorrect code. I found this thread and realized I need the stock ROM. So if I restore the stock ROM back up, will that be enough to let the unlock code work? Unfortunately, I've already used 4 of the 5 tries, and don't want to waste the last one. Thanks for any information.
You should be fine to enter the code if you are able to restore the TWRP backup of the stock ROM.

Thanks. That's what I was thinking, but I wanted to run it by you folks here. I'd never dealt with Sim unlocking a phone before. My personal phone was purchased Sim unlocked and my next phone will be a Nexus device so the whole Sim unlocking is new territory.

It worked great! I restored the original stock ROM backup I'd made in TWRP and then performed the unlock and it worked. I'm glad too, since it was the 5th try out of 5 tries. I'm now restoring the backup of the CM12.1 that I'd made for her last night and she's got an active phone. Thanks a lot for the confirmation.
No problem. Congratulations?
After Nougat update I'm continuously getting this message "Unfortunately, LG IMS has stopped" every 2 secs.
I have reset my phone but the problem still persists.
I also tried going into hidden menu / modem setting / and tried going into VOLTE / IMS but not able to do that since I keep on getting IMS has stopped error and not able to disable VOLTE.
Need a quick solution.
I have my SIM unlocked for other networks
Any help would be appreciated.
i am having this exact same issue and i see you also had your phone unlocked by asadnow2k so we no that there is some sort of issue with that type of unlock and android 7.0 i am confident that asadnow2k will fix the issue if it can be fixed
##RTN#
You can try dialing ##RTN#(requires your MSL) this will reset all settings and unlock will gone. After this you should unlock the phone again. Hope this helps! But not 100% shure.
any other ideas to solve this??
in case anyone was wondering doing the ##RTN# reset does get rid of the problem but then you are left without an unlock

After reset with Hidden Menu issue is resolved but Unlocked is gone and now device has sprint settings
And Is sim unlock available on Nougat?
Or would it be safer to downgrade to Android 6 using Lg Flash tool?

My phone was sim unlocked but after the update I keep getting com.android.phone has stopped, I dont have the msl code so is there a way to reset the settings without the msl?, ive tried ##72786# but it didn't work, if someone who has sprint is willing to help me out that would be great. Thanks in advance
Any other solution
So downgrade not working as confirmed by ppanf.
Can't reset MSL code since that would mean sim lock and as of now there is no unlock on nougat.
Any other hack guys???

MSL can be retrieved by anyone who has GCPro or any other similar tool? I tried reaching to some folks on ebay and they got the MSL for me however they were not able to unlock the phone.. Ebay guys told me contact next week and they might have a solution for 7.0
Custom rom
Can't we just root the device and install some custom rom...?
Which is marshmallow based...
Is that possible...?
