[Q] Cant place calls - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi i have a strange problem.
Bought a used Galaxy S. Not branded or locked to any provider.
It´s not stolen or IMEI locked and it has the right IMEI (checked with phone company).
the guy i bought i from said it was prepared with OCLF on eclair but he did a factory reset without disabeling OCLF.
After reboot the phone just shows a crossed over circle. He had swedish Tele2. And it worked before factory reset.
Strange but i put in my swedish 3 card and it showed signalbars. (Again its not locked).
I installed OCLF and it said there was no Lagfix installed and i didnt se 890mb for apps so i figured i failed when installing it in the first place? I could if i wanted to install OCLF again.
Instead i flashed the new Tatyama rom and used Advanced JFS (ext4) (think it was called that.)
Now to my problem EVERYTHING (surfing the net, sending and reciving SMS/MMS) works except reciving nad placeing phonecalls!???
Whats upp with that.
Best reegards /Borelis.

PLS help med. Product code was wrong but now thats corrected. Still same error. Just get two beps then it hangs up!

[Q] Updated to JM8 and can't remove NETLOCK

I just flashed my SGS to JM8 through KIES from JF5.
It was very strange. The first few times it kept giving an error that got me sweating and said I needed to restore my FW. Still, nothing happened, there was no option to do it.
After the last time it did I told myself, "Last time trying and then go to ODIN!".
When I pressed update again the phone said "Can't update, need to restore ROM". So I did. After restoring my ROM was JM8 and all my data was still on the phone!
I was really happy, given that I've read that all my settings and data would be cleaned out!
Still, now comes the problem! I wanted to release the NETLOCK from my SGS and the software asks me if I have an SNS and doesn't give me any codes!!!
How can I get my codes now??
Thanks for your help!
Have you already tried to restore your bachup of /efs?
My Help was to delete the nav Files then reboot and my IMEI was back again..
The most recent firmwares just erase the unlock codes from nv_data.bin and from nv_data.bak.. You should have unlocked it before the upgrade.. Now the codes aren't on the phone anymore, so, there is no known method of obtain the codes from you phone.
Now the only way is to purchase the codes, from TMN (or not)...
Hi there, I have the same problem....
JM8 firmware and unlock applications not working.
I bought a code from cellunlocker.net but it doesnt work and now I am waiting for their assistance (another code?)
Do you now a site which we can buy a working code for unlocking a jm8 from TMN? But one that works....
help!

[Q] SIM card not detected after Froyo update

Hello everybody, I hace a Galaxy S from Movistar (Spain) and I have tried to update to Froyo from its first beta version. I always get the same error. All works fine (maket, wifi, keyboard) but the SIM card is not detected. The phone starts and no ask me for PIN code.
Yesterday I tried the new froyo and got the same error.
Now I'm working fine with JM8 and JM4 modem (and of course the SAME SIM card).
When I updated to froyo first time with the beta version, I got an operator error code. I downgraded, all work fine and after taht I free my phone.
Could anyone help me to jump to froyo?
Kind regards
I doubt the operator thingy has got something to do with reading the actual card instead of just not recognizing his network. =/
Hardware- and softwarewise, you always get you pin verification, .. unless it's broken or you're missing a phone part?
I use the SAME SIM card with JM8 and other phones without any problem
I had this problem for the first time last night when I flashed to JP6. I finally got it working again by deleating the /efs/nv_data.bin and the /efs/nv_data.bin.md5 files (making sure the sim card is not in the phone when doing it)
I think the phone recreates those files from it's backup file. I'm a total noob at this and you might want to make sure this is correct before deleting anything. Is your product code correct?

WATCH OUT WHEN DOING THAT.. You don't want to accidentally corrupt your IMEI (and I suspect doing that may cause that)

Thanks for the warning. I managed to take a copy of everything before doing it. I made the mistake of not doing this at the very begining before flashing the JP6 update and have now lost the correct CSC info for the UK, but at least I kept my IMEI
The search continues
I will try at home this night
My SIM card is not readable on a JM1, coming from a JF3... im clueless
Hi, where do I find those files so that I can delete them. I am unable to get my SIM card recognised either! im on Vodafone UK

[Q] No IMEI after SBF update :confused:

Hi there! I'm from Argentina.
I had a problem a week ago, when I tried to root my Motorola Milestone.
When I updated the SBF and applied an update.zip (just to avoid the OTA 2.2 update problem) my IMEI went blank.
I did't even root it yet. The problem is that I have the "NO SERVICE" legend.
Tried flashing some Argentinian (and other countries) Radios but nothing happened.
Then, when I press *#06# no IMEI shows on screen, just a box to press OK.
My IMEI was: 356698030155635
And my carrier is: PERSONAL (AKA: UNIFON Argentina).
My phone it's not on warranty period, and technical services here don't know how to solve my problem.
Is there any way to put back my IMEI? If not... What can I do or what can I try?
I can't use my phone
I'ld try anything available... can't get any worst.
Anyone had the same problem?
Thnx in advance for your help!
PS: Sorry for my English.
--- UPDATE:
Well... Just made the update process from stock all over again, like 3 times. Now IMEI reading is correct.
I don't know why it got cleared, but now works for me...
Thnx anyway! I Love this forums.

[Q] I9000 upgrade to Froyo and SIM cannot be seen

HI All,
I have waited and waited and............. waited for a standard Froyo Australian Optus ROM, I had not even thought about rooting the phone it was as standard as can be.
The ROM had finally come but I did my upgrade and the phone couldn't see the SIM. So I called Optus who passed me to Samsung who referred me to 2 different "service" centers hoping this was a standard issue with a standard fix. How foolishly trusting was I. so after getting off many phone calls it came to "send it in we will look at it". So I started my own research and ............... nothing (more than happy if someone knows where there is an answer and I just missed it)
So after this fail I was over it and so I loaded the DOC v9 JPO ROM rooting and all. Even after this the phone could still not see the SIM. =( I found the stock standard ROM loaded it and yes the SIM was fine so I tried once again the Optus release, FAIL, and then DOCs, FAIL. so I am back at the stock standard ROM and hoping not to have to send it away.
PLEASE HELP

[Q] Not registered in Network => Return to Vodafone?

Dear all,
I just want to make sure that my vodafone LTE S3 GT-I9305 is ready to be given back to vodafone shop (sim card is not recognized at all, either some kind of lock or simply broken). also got message "not registred in network". vodafone employer came to us in store showing us the s3 saying "just want to show you the color". now i figured out that the box was already open when he came to us....
got phone yesterday but never tested phone function before rooting. used CF root with CWM and later also CF auto root to get back stock recovery. also resetted flash count. never flashed anything else, especially no other image. just did these two root options.
my questions:
- after final root with CF auto root I used Triangle Remove and Downloader showed count of zero, binary "Samsung Original" and system "Samsung Original". But after resetting phone (wipe in recovery console) it shows system in downloader "custom" (binary is still samsung...flash count still zero "no"). Is this normal?
- is recovery console the original one?
- am i good enough to go back to vodafone with this?
more info

Some more information, because I saw some post on other poeple having same problem with "Not registered in network"
Maybe it is some issue, because phone might have been unlocked before I bought it or imported from somewhere. You never know what those guys in vodafone shops really sell to customers....Or it might be locked although it should not be locked. As I said before...Only rooted phone, but never flashed any other image or radio version. Basically only thing that was changed was to put on CWM after first root....and using CF Auto root to get back stock recovery...
MORE OVER==== IN SETTINGS IN STATUES it says=
network=not know
service state=out of service
roaming=not roaming
ERI version =not available
mobile network state =disconnected
serial no=it is shown (but i will not post it here)
imei=Not known
device status= Customized (in German "Geändert")
Might have lost IMEI....also tried *#06#....show "null/null"...
why does it say System Status : Cusrom And werent you the person who sister tried to root it and you didnt know what root she used because now ther is not any imei showing?
