I have a rooted cyanogenmod 4.0.4 G1 just recently my phone said it doesn;t have service. I stcuk my sim card in blackberry and it works. I wiped, reflashed the mod, and reflashed the radio and still no luck. When i try to search for networks it either shows up with AT&T or comes up with with an error. This is driving me nuts.
***UPDATE****
I just realized that my phone will work on only 3g which isn't at home and not 2g. Any suggestions????

Basically, my N1 when on stock worked perfectly with 3g, yes sometimes it was a bit patchy but it worked. I am using my old blackberry sim (UK), with the internet converted from bberry internet to normal.
Everything was going fine until I put my brother's orange sim in my phone (UK) [he also has a stock nexus, although at the time i was on 5.0.0.3 CM] to see if it was just his phone which had a 3g issue. I never managed to pick up 3g while his sim was in my phone, even though 2 blackberry bolds sitting next to it with orange sims in had perfect 3g.
ANYWAY THATS NOT THE ISSUE.
After replacing my sim in my phone, Ive never since had 3g, ever, even on routes I know the signal is immense.
What I want to know is 1) what would swapping sims have done to the phone, 2) what I can do to possibly reverse it so I can enjoy my 3g again
CM .6
Desire CAM + OC/UV
Cheers
I haven't had this same problem but if I were you I would go to your carrier and get a replacement SIM card. The last time I had a weird issue like this I replaced my SIM and all of a sudden I got pure 3G signals everywhere where I hadn't before. If you get the new SIM and it still doesn't work, try wiping and install a completely different ROM (perferably stock) and see what happens.
Hope this helps!

But before I put my brothers sim in my phone, my sim worked perfectly fine, so I was thinking it was more likely to be phone than my sim?
Anyone have any ideas?
his sim seems to have disabled 3g somehow in your phone, though I've never heard me that before. have you gone into the info menu and seen if your 3g is still enabled? *#*#4636#*#* on your dialpad.
WHOOPs, yeah I had it off [while we were testing etc] and sort of forgot :/ Which setting is it meant to be on, GSM/CDMA auto?
you want it to be on WCDMA Preferred.
I've set it correctly now, and am getting 'H'. I didn't actually realise that it is a type of 3g network, however I am SURE It used to say '3g'. UK O2 if it makes a difference.
well H stands for HSDPA which is what some ROMs show. so have you flashed to a different custom ROM? either way you are getting correct high speed network, so no worries. my nexus only says 3G even when i'm on HSDPA.

Yeah, CM 5.0.6, although I did see a real 3g today *strokes phone* goooood boy
I had CM 6.0 installed and everything was working great until a couple days ago. My phone would periodically have no service and I cannot send texts, make calls or have data. The 3G symbol shows upload and then the H symbol shows upload, but then no download bar. This problem got worse as the time went on. I also had the latest nightly installed but no luck.
I decided to wipe everything and revert back to stock. Everything was flashed back to stock, including recovery, the newest radio, etc. But my phone still doesn't work. When I turn on the phone, it just shows no service or no 3G symbol. However, when I put my roommates AT&T sim card in, it works on edge.
I am on T-Mobile, and it is really frustrating. So right now I have to use my old flip phone.
So is it my radio's problem or sim card?
hey same here my brother aswell
are you on the 2.2.1 update? I am having the same exact problem. I'm running stock rom, 2.2.1. This started 2 days ago for me. However when i switch my phone to 2G only under settings > network my phone works. I am using the 5.99 tzone are you? I am curious to see if this issue is only for 5.99 tzone 3G leechers or all users of the nexus one. a guy in seattle i spoke to has the same issue. so does my brother who also has the 5.99 tzone.
yea, im on the new 2.2.1 update too. but i have the unlimited data plan.
so i did some more testing with my friends samsung vibrant with my sim card, everything worked great. got like 2mb down.
i used his sim card in my phone, and same problem. it only shows upload and no download. but i was able to send and receive texts and make calls, but no data.
yea something is wrong for sure man just called my buddy and he has unlimited data and 3g is not working at all
internet2.voicestream.com works fine put it in apn in settings
that worked for me, but still only on 2G.
every time im on 3G, its so sporadic. and not reliable at all
is it possible for the radio hardware to die over time?
Yesterday my Milestone dropped the network and wrote "Only emergency calls". On other phones there was maximum signal. After a while the phone logged in to the network, but lost the signal again. I thought something is with the ROM, so I made a factory reset but didn't help. I flashed the correct SBF file (first Éclair, then Froyo), but didn't help. I restored an earlier MOD I used without any problem but didn't work.
I always used the German baseband files with other MODs because my Milestone is German.
The problem is that if I make anything (I mean anything related to the data connection), the GSM signal disappears, sometimes data connection remain with no problem, sometimes it is lost, too, but sometimes it has GSM signal with only EDGE network. If I do nothing, just turn off the screen and do nothing, everything goes back to normal, and the phone has normal data connection with GSM signal, I can make or receive phone calls.
I put in another SIM but the issue was the same.
Can I try something related to software and didn't try yet or this is a hardware failure? And if so, what is the price of a GSM module? I couldn't find it.
MOD: It seems that only the 3G is not working (sometimes HSPA does while 3G phone connection don't), with 2G there isn't any problem.
dial *#*#4636#*#*
Under phone info, try a different network type.
It probably defaults to GSM (auto). It does on mine anyway and it's fine.
But maybe WCDMA preferred, GSM only, or WCDMA only will work better.
It depends on which is screwing up... the WCDMA or the GSM
edit: had the dialpad code wrong... again.. geez

Are you sure you have applied the correct baseband?
I would tell to re-apply thru AOR.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App
You could go to settings, wireless and networks and somewhere there there is use only 2g networks and if that is checked, you could try to uncheck it. That is what happened to me before on the froyo mod. Also, you could try turning on airplane mode, then turn it off. Good luck
I always used the German baseband, tried to switch 2G/3G many times, applied the baseband trough OR, applied the RTEU baseband, re-flashed the ROM, the original Éclair, the Froyo, again and again but nothing helped. I gave up I decided to go to the service. Before that on a forum somebody asked something, I gave an answer but I was not 100% sure about it, so I flashed the RTEU Froyo.
And it worked. The 3G, HSPA, 2G, EDGE, phone functions all are working now. My phone is truly German, it has QWERTZ keyboard and the original ROM was the ROM from Deutsche Vodafone (tried that one before, too), it has the logo on its box, and the German baseband files always worked. I don't know what just happened, it's simply working now. Why now... don't know.
I've got a rooted HTC One on T-Mobile that has worked fine for a couple months. Last week I got a SIM card error a few times and the cell connection was lost until I rebooted, at which point the SIM card error went away and the cell connection (voice and data) worked again.
As of yesterday, my cell connection is not working at all, no bars of service. I do not have a SIM card error displaying in my status bar either. Everything looks fine, just no cell service. It's not a network problem; my wife's phone works fine.
I've tried checking my mobile data settings and pulling and re-inserting my SIM card, but the problem still exists.
Fortunately WiFi works fine so I can still make calls when I have a connection, but obviously this is not sustainable. So... What do I do?
I'm rooted but running the stock ROM. Would it be worth it to flash and wipe? Really seems like a hardware issue to me. Do I have to contact HTC directly about warranty repair/replacement? How long does that process take and is my being rooted going to cause an issue?
Sad

Get a sim card replacement and try that
Was originally running OMJ Sprint Rom and wanted to try out CM so did a wipe and flashed the CM rom. Everything was working except for the 3G mobile data. Somehow 4G LTE was still connected and running but that doesn't allow me to make voice calls or even text as I found out. Anyhow had to switch back to slow iPhone and now am stuck with this awesome device that can't make phone calls.
I used to successfully flash roms all the time with my EVO 4G but for some reason this has stumped me. Any help is appreciated. Currently running the Bad Boyz rom and cannot boot into a recovery (either CW or TWRP). HELP.
Cheers
As far as data goes did you try to reprovision the phone ##72786# yet? What happens when you switch to cdma in network settings?
Yea I tried that both over the phone with a Sprint rep and then also at the store and no luck. Also tried switching between Auto/LTE + CDMA/ CDMA only and no luck. Also not sure how to tell if it's working since it's not activated...should it still indicate a 3G connection without activation?
