Xperia phone function not working, everything else does - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My Xperia phone function has stopped working. Network shows signal but I can make or receive no calls or SMS. My SIM card works in my wife's phone, and my wife's SIM card does the same thing in my phone.
Internet access via web browser, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, FM radio all still work.
I have reloaded ROM (R3AA013) and still have the same problem despite trying all settings.
Any clues as to what I need to do to get it back, or is it toast?
Thanks,
Ezekiel

Data connection won't work

Hello,
I have a problem with my HTC S730. The dataconnection in connmanager is turned off. But I can't get it back on. It works for half a year but now it won't work. So when my dataconnection is off I can't call or sms.
I tryed a hard-reset but without result...
Any suggestions?
I don't understand. You switched off phone at commmanager - maybe. After restart will be GSMpart fix at switchoff.
Do you go to commmanager and switch phone to on. You don't need dataconnections for SMS and call.
Maybe you switched on airplane mode. It isn't possible use GSM on airplane mode.
If you have switchon GSM, you need setup GPRS or dial-up at settings->connection. You will ask yours network operator.
If no,
Maybe you have problems with yours SIM cards, maybe you have problem with GSM operator or maybe you have problem with phone. If don't you repair it, you test to HW restart. BUT YOU WILL LOST ALL DATA !!!
If you turn off the data connection it will stay off until something in the phone prompts for network access. I usually just refresh my weather page and it fires up and is back online.
However since you hardbooted your phone and still have no luck you might be having other issues. Even more so since you cannot make a call or anything since disabling it. Any new software or flashing done to the phone's rom or radio?
Ok ty all!
My phone is back on.
I don't know how but it works.
Although I still have some problems with my network.

Connecting to network takes longer suddenly

Yesterday I had some problems with my phone suddenly, one thing was the connection to my provider (T-mobile NL).
So I did a hard reset, everything worked fine again except that particular problem.. I tried other radio's but that didn't work either.
It takes about 10 minutes for the phone to get on the network. GPRS doesn't work for some reason but when I turn 3G on I can connect to HSDPA (I leave 3G off when I don't need it to save battery time.
I also bought a second battery yesterday and tested it. I now have the original battery in it again and still the same problem. Normally it connects in 5 seconds. I don't think it's a network problem because my T-mobile Prepaid simcard in a sony ericsson k750i works just fine.
Any ideas anyone? Send for repair ?

Problem connecting to my network Please help!!

the weirdest thing happened to me, my phpne was working fine, i flashed fearkill fr13 after a full wipe coming from fr12 mcr.
It worked well for a couple of hours and all of the sudden i cant connect to my network. The only way it connects is by enabling 2g networks only and even like that i cant make any calls. I have even tried reinstalling the baseband 405 and nothing works...
My network is fine by the way, its just my phone
Please help me!!
Edit:
A little more info:
I tried a different sim card with the same results
Whenever i try to search for a network it just stays thinking for a while and does nothing
When I try to do it automatically it says it cannot connect to the network at this time immediately...
I managed to make a call on 2g networks only but as soon as i remove the check i cant connect
Edit 2:
Woooooow, this just gets weirder by the second!!
I can connect to the internet with wifi disabled and a clear X on the network as in no network connection... I can browse the internet just fine, NO CALLS though
... after countless Wipes and installing plenty of roms With no luck i gave up and as soon as i Woke up it Was Working again... strange but im happy
Guess it was your network after all
maybe, i had a blackberry beside it with a working 3g connection :S
And no idea how to explain 3g working with no bars and an x on it haha
O have problems with my network connection too.
In some rooms at my house I can get 3G access and in another room only EDGE.
Several times per day I can't get access to the network anyway. The only way to solve the probölem is to restart the phone.
Sometimes my phone tells me it is connected but there is no data transfer for several hours. I noticed that when I got home and many emails from the last hours appeared after being connected to my wifi.
I'm using the MCR but I've also tried the ROM from romkitchen-org. Changing the baseband had no effect.
I'll have a try with the stock ROM. If this would fail too I'll send my phone back to the dealer. I think it could also be an hardware defect.

Connectivity issues

Hey guys,
my SP has some serious problems with standard 2g(?) connectivity, I can't receive calls or SMS' until I have done either myself.
It feels like the phone turns off the 2g network after some time and only reactivates (for a bit) when I use them myself.
There is nothing to indicate the network not being on. The phone is completely stock.
Help much appreciated, this is driving me crazy!
When on internet via 2G you cant use sms and cant make calls. However it can also be a SIM card issue get a new one. This will solve most of the conectivity issues

[Q] Strange data issue

Hi
A few days ago I started experiencing a strange issue that I just can't resolve.
Certain apps and accounts, i.e. Facebook, email, playstore, Google, Flip board etc. simply will not load/refresh/sync over mobile network. However, I can still browse the Internet using various apps (chrome, stock browser). With Spotify, I can stream music but am unable to download. There is no issue with the data connection as I am getting 'H' or '3g' and showing decent stats on Speed test. I have no issues at all over Wifi - everything works perfectly.
It's as if something is preventing apps from syncing/refreshing over the network but not affecting Internet access.
I have an unbranded device with a sim only Talk Talk deal.
Kitkat 4.2.2
4.12.401.11
I'm going to do a hard reset next but wondered if there was another solution.
Any ideas?

At work we had a phone that did not want to sync email on 3G. (Perhals other apps, we did not check.)
It turned out his phone was roaming on 3G, and the email client was set not to push mail when roaming.
I think the guy had bad signal on its own network on this location and so the phone was roaming.
He could still use his browser and many other apps without any problems.
Maybe it has nothing to do with your problem but I thought I should post it.
Because it sure has many things in common, also in this example on WIFI everything would work fine.
Kind regards, Stefan.
Thanks for that, unfortunately it doesn't seem to be a roaming issue.
I've just factory reset the device, completely wiped everything. Tries to log into Facebook and the same thing happened. Switches to WiFi and it worked straight away.
I tried forcing the mobile data to only use WCDMA. This actually seemed to resolve the problem temporarily and I was able to update Facebook however it soon reverted to how it was and I was unable to sync email, update Facebook or download on Spotify unless over WiFi.
I'm wondering if it's the Sim card or possibly a problem with the phone but I'm struggling to understand (albeit with limited knowledge) how this strange behaviour could be hardware related...
