Every once in a while I would notice, when I unlocked my phone, it would say "Emergency Calls Only" as if I didn't have a SIM card in.
Everything would still work after that such as text messages and calls, so I just figured it was a weird issue with Cyanogen 6 RC1.
Starting today, I was getting that message every single time, and also a notification that I couldn't register on T-Mobile's network.
I got on T-Mobile's live chat help, and they said there's nothing wrong with the service in my area. The person also had me tell him the SIM card number to ensure they had the right one in their system, which they did.
After this, I figured it might still be because I'm running CM RC1 so I upgraded to RC3 and I"m still having the same issue.
T-Mobile's "my account" program is no longer set up, so I don't get the notification, but I still get the emergency calls message on the lock screen.
Also, I AM connected to the T-Mobile network, but it just won't recognize my phone.
I was wondering if anyone else had any insight...
Which radio are you using? Has it done this since upgrading from stock rom?
Yes I just had this similar issue yesterday and I'm on at&t. Also, everything on my N1 is stock.

I had the froyo radio but then I flashed the new Korean radio and it didn't help.
I did, however, pull out the old trusty G1 to have a working phone again. But when I started it up, it reported not having a sim card. Im going to go to tombile tomorrow to get them to test it. I'll report back in case someone else has the same issue.

You might try cleaning the SIM card contacts, they might be the culprit.
I went to T-Mobile and he confirmed it was the sim card. Actually he said it was fairly common for them to go bad. No charge and I'm working 100% now. Thanks!

I have not in my life seen a dead SIM card, it was a month ago that somebody was asking around the forums what and why. I was shocked
And T-Mobile says it's common.. lol wut?
Maybe the Nexus One eats them lol

Hi all,
I recently bought an unlocked international version of samsung galaxy S GT-i9000. I was able to use it with at&t sim card quite happily till now. Even the 3g worked on it. But from yesterday the at&t service keeps disconnecting after using for few hours. The network bars at the top right disappear and a blue disconnected sign appears. I cannot make a call or receive a call till I reboot my phone. In settings->about phone I see that the "Service" shows "Not in Service". When I reboot it gets back to "In Service".
Did anyone face this problem before? Is there any solution for it? My unlocked phone boots with T-mobile preset settings - is this problem because of that?\
Someone please help.
I've been using one on AT&T for quite a while without issue.
Ok. Thats encouraging. Did you change the software on it - like rooting or flashing other ROMS or still using the original touchwiz?
I donno why I am getting this error now..it worked fine last week.

I've flash several roms without issue.
Did you install anything recently before the problems occurred?
I just installed a Yahoo mail application and some online radios yesterday. Nothing on the software side like rooting or flashing. I am still using the samsung touchwiz that came with the device.
Looks like that yahoo mail app is the cause of the problem. Deleted that app 1 day back, and it seems to work smoothly for now without any disconnections. Thanks for pointing out to look at newly installed apps.
did you buy I9000 or I9000M ?
I9000 runs on 900/1900/2100
AT&T runs on 850/1900
I9000M runs on 850/1900/2100

Doesn't really matter I had stock/euro i9000and had no disconnects.. although sometimes I only got edge when there was no 850 3g. I now have i9000m and still get no disconnects.. and yes I am on at&t.

I bought I9000 (not the M version). I am able to get the 3g HSDPA with 1900 frequency. I verified it online before buying the piece that 3g would run on one of the frequencies. The problem I had earlier was not with the 3g network, but with the actual cell phone signal which enables to make calls.

I had this problem for a while after I flashed one of the firmwares.. the fix i think i used was to change the settings on the phone from KOR to BMC.. I forget how to do this..
it was one of the *#1234#* type codes.. Anyone remember?
I guess I was early in thinking everything is alright. The problem started again- it gets disconnected once in a while and I have to restart the mobile. Hey dapoktan, can you please remember what you did earlier to get rid of it? If we change the firmware does it help? I am waiting for samsung's android 2.2 update, hope they at least release it by Nov 11th (as mentioned in one website)

Thanks every one for your suggestions.
Before applying nailer's suggestions, I just saw I could update the firmware to froyo by doing a registry hack in kies http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S_Series#Installing_firmware_for_different_country. So just gave it a try and currently got froyo.
Have been using froyo since yesterday and no recurrence of the problem till now. I also successfully rooted the device following http://samsunggalaxysforums.com/showthread.php/2384-Rooting-FroYo-2.2 and applied Ryanza's lagfix 2.0 available in market. Looks fine for now and the phone runs excellently smooth.

I bought a c510e as they call it here in China. Got the s-off at the local mobile repair shop. Then I "updated" the ROM to a stock O2rom.exe so I could get facebook, and Android market apps and get rid of all the Chinese apps that I cant use anyway. Phone starts up fine, but I get a message (In Chinese) about my sim card, now I don't have a carrier. It shows 4bars,and that I'm using a CMCC sim card but no connection. WIFI works, but I can't make calls. So I figure maybe the O2 ROM was sim locked to the O2 carrier? I do a restore back to the original China ROM but same thing. I get an error message about the sim card, shows 4 bars and that I'm on CMCC, but no signal connection. Did the "update" screw up the radio?
I'm thinking see if I can update back to a full China ROM and see if that helps.
Any thoughts on what went pear shaped?
Luckily I leave china tomorrow so maybe once I get a new sim card the error message will be in English and I will have a better understanding of what the problem is..
Cheers
Well not sure what was wrong, I flashed the phone with the XTC-clip and re-rooted and all is good.
this is an unknown area.....i didn't have any issues with roms, went from British to Chinese, purely for space, flashed 5 times, no problems.
glad you got it working mind!
Any base rom that is from a network ie o2 is always locked to there network which means you have to ensure the cid is set to an unlocked status, which is what the xtc clip would of done, hence why it would be an unknown area, see big bear even though i got shut of mine still try an lend a hand
Good man! Glad your sticking around

Hello,
I have a very interesting problem where an unlocked Rogers P925G, doesn't want to download apps from market, using Telus service.
Data works, Internet works, obviously APN are good.
IF I swap it with rogers sim, it works.
Anyone seen such a thing?
Have u tried uninstalling it on manager download it when it says android market then it will update back to play

Any more info on the problem? Do you have any error message pop up,anything show up in the task bar? Or does it just flat out not do a thing?
