[Q] loosing Network Signal and it don't come back! - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Folks,
how in the topic, im loosing my signal at point where my signal is weak. if i lost it, i can run around to get it back to write messages or call someone. it doesnt work, because my phone say's "only Emergency calls". i wait one hour but the phone can't connect to my provider. The radio is at the moment 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7, i've already tried newer and older version of the radio img but always the same issue. From the beginning when i had the phone, it sometimes doesn't regognize my sim card, i have tried everything to get it to work (new rom or radio img) but always it fails. on the next day without any changes the phone works again with the same sim card. So now here is my question....... what the HELL can i do to bring it back to work, so it dont lose the signal in weak areas, and if the phone loses it, what shall i do to automaticly reconnect the phone automaticly to the provider. and airplane mode is no soloution for me. thanks for answer.

Have you tried another SIM card in there to see if the problem still occurs?
Sometimes the card itself needs replacing. Just a thought..!

this i havn't tried out yet, but i tried my actual sim card at the phone of my wife and it works a whole day without connection lose. I'm just thinking its a software problem maybe its the wrong radio version.

No "wrong radio version" will lose connection and fail to reconnect.
It's either your ROM or (most probably) HW problem.
You can try to wipe and install a clean ROM and see if the problem persists. If it does - use the warranty.

which rom would u suggest ? I tried CM6 / CM7 / MIUI nearly all modded roms here. The problem is to try out if the rom works i have to go out to a point where the signal ist weak, and hope for a signal lost. Sometimes it works and i get a reconnect to network and sometimes it doesn't work. in zones where the signal is strong i haven't any trouble. Did i get any problems by HTC if my phone is unlocked? I already had it gave to a repair 3 month ago with a broken usb connector and there was no trouble with warranty at unlocked phone but what is now? can they change their opinion ?

I got it. The Problem was the the Phone has to set the Network search to manual and not to automatic search. it works now for over 1 day and it seem that is now no problem with lost signal. Thanks for Help. But i just wondering why i have to chose manual network search an not automatic.

No service - problem

Yesterday I got my brand new Diamond and when I got home the first thing I did was update the ROM from the htc website, everything went ok, I made a call, did some settings and let it to charge, later on I saw that I had No service with the SIM that I had in it originally, I started freaking out of course, rebooted, did soft reset, did hard reset, I even reinstalled the flash to make sure everything went ok. The signal did not work, I mean it got the signal, after 2 seconds loose it, after 1-2 minutes found network again and after 2 seconds loosing it and that was going on. So I tried a SIM card from another network which worked, then I tried a friends SIM from the first network which did not work. Eventually, I selected the network manually on my sim and it started up but only with 2 lines on signal. It seems to be working since last night with 2-3 lines signal but I suspect that could be that we have low 3G coverage over here, anyway.
Has anybody else encountered this problem ? Why do you think this happened? Should I rush into the store to take it back or is it some settings or software?
Also I have the rom from the htc website, is there any other version that works better?
Also could anybody give me a quote on the battery life because I am uncertain of it, I am not pretentious, if it holds up 2-3 days with normal use(phone + a little wi-fi and whatnot) then I am satisfied.
Thank you.
did you take your sim out while you flashed the ROM?
Umm... I must be stupid or something but I didn't, I must say this is not my first phone flashing so I don't know what was in my mind, did I damage the SIM or what ? It seems to work now though...
I've never flashed without taking the sim out, having said that I know people who have flashed with the SIM in and havn''t had a problem. But then there's a few that have had issues when the sim was left in during flash. Good to hear that it's working again.
If I encouter the problem again do you think flashing it without the sim will solve it ?
Also what ROM do you have? Do you recommend one that is better than the one from the HTC website?
What is your battery life average?
well it's hard to know - if you flash again be sure to take out the sim, but if the problem persists maybe you need to get a sim replaced. I work for Telstra here in Australia and a replacement sim costs $30. But if we "say" the sim has "failed" there is no replacement charge.
I am waiting for elite 2.5 rom which is due to be released any moment here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403296&page=18
My battery life is pretty good - it holds up 2-3 days with normal use (phone + a little wi-fi and whatnot) but if I do alot of browsing I need to charge every day.
I understand, well, what it was strange is that it didn't work with any other SIM I tried from Vodafone network, I tried my friends and another one but worked fine with a sim from another network during that time when I had the problem.
I will keep my eye on it and hope it doesn't happen again.
Do you use Yahoo by any chance on your device? I get the e-mails perfectly with the imap server but I can't get to send any e-mail with the smtp server the phone has configured automaticly...
probably the default settings for yahoo are diff...i think it requires a reg change possibly to fix? not sure....
regarding the flashing...i've flashed my diamond around 7-8 times, not sure...pretty much tried every cooked rom here cept for 1 or 2 and the official WWE ones...never had any issues with flashing (and my sim was inside the phone every one of these times)...
it happend to me
it happend to me, in places with low signal... hapend a lot
what solve it was flasing the radio rom 1.00.25.05 i think it may solve all your ploblems.
please let us know
pd. i had signal problems with al the older radio roms even the 1.00.25.03
thanks jr-daza, i will search for the rom to flash now.
is there a place on the forum where i can download it ?

Loosing network signal

Hi!
After weeks of flawless function my Xperia can not find my carriers phone network.
I have updated the phone to the new ROM but that does not help.
The phone finds the SIM card and asks for the code.
Strangly it can connect to internet through my carrier (Tele2).
But I can not get a connection to the phone network and make a normal phone call.
Is something wrong with the phone?
NO, cause with another carrier (Telenor) everything works pefect.
Then obviously something is wrong with my carrier (Tele2) or the SIM-card.
NO, cause when I put my Tele2 SIM-card in another device (Ipaq 6515) it works perfect.
The Ipaq is not a 3G-phone. Can that have anything to do with it?
I'm getting lost here, all help is appreciated.
(ORIGINAL MESSAGE
Hi!
After weeks of flawless function my Xperia has started to lose it's phone network.
I notice it after I wake my phone up from stand by mode.
It doesn't help to turn the phone option off and on in Comm manager, but it has sometimes helped turning flight mode on and off.
Other times I had to restart the phone.
This happens a couple of times every day, after long times of not using the phone. I have not been able to trigger this problem, so I don't know what causes it or exactly when it happens.
Strangly it can connect to HDSPA while it has lost the phone network.
I have also experienced som freezes when I'm flipping between the panels to much.
All help is appreciated, thanks.
It would be helpful if you could give us more information.
What ROM are you using
Which carrier you have
etc.

I'm using:
ROM 1.02.936.3
Radioversion 1.06.25.29
The carrier is Swedish Tele2.
In Sweden we have GSM-900 and GSM-1800.
Tele2 also provide me with UMTS and HSDPA.
Today the problem became worse.
Even after repeated soft restarts it refused to find the phone network.
Then I change SIM-card to another carrier and it found the network.
I also tried the SIM-card that's giving me problems in another device. Works fine.
So both SIM-cards works. I'm now gonna go with the new carrier during the day to see if the problem come back.
If anyone have any ideas, please help.

All I can say that Xperia sometimes looks for the signal a bit longer it should IMO,
but I also know that carriers have many many problems usually and they're also often responsible for signal drops in some places too.
I know that 'cos I was talking to my carrier many times about it and learned something about it...
have u tried hard resetting the phone or re-installing the software? ..
if u run the sony update software it will give u the option to re-install your phones software - not sure if that has the same effect as a hard reset ..
probably worth trying

Thanks for answering, I have now done a total reinstall and updated the phone to the newest R2... ROM.
The problem remains.
The phone finds the SIM card and asks for the code.
It can connect to internet through my carrier (Tele2).
But I can not get a connection to the phone network and make a normal phone call.

Have you tried disabling 3G/HSDPA?
Chance that you have very poor 3G on your phone, whilst the IPAC is picking up ok 2G.

Thanks for replying.
I disabled HSDPA/HSUPA in the advanced network menu. But it didn't help.
I also tried to choose GSM only in the phone seetings menue. But I could not even change the setting. Just got an error message about not being able to change the network (or something similar).
Is there any other setting that might be worth trying?

Having worked for several phone companies a few years at customer service I know what the procedure is.
-First thing they do is ask you to do a "crosstest", try your SIM in another phone and see if that works.
-You'll tell them that you did that and everything works fine when you use another phone.
-They'll automatically conclude that there's something wrong with your phone (correctly)
-They'll ask you if you could do a hard reset ( You did that too)
-Then maybe they'll try and reset the network (which almost never works)
Basically they'll have no other choice then for you to return it and have them look at the problem / replace your phone.
I don't think we here can help you with your problem
Good luck and keep us posted
Get a new SIM card. I've seen problems like this before, and an updated SIM card solved it.
The best way would be to test your SIM card in a similar phone, the ipaq not being close because it's not even 3G.

I'm so confused right now.
Got my new sim card today, problem remains.
I call the carrier support and after they've looked the IMEI-number up they say that the phone is barred by an external operator. They won't tell me the reason and by what operator.
So I call the other carriers support and after they've done a IMEI-search they say that the phone is not locked in any way, by them or any other operator. After have been talking to Xperia support they come to the same conclusion. The phone is not locked but agree to that something is wrong, with phone or carriers, and they want me to try with a third carrier.
Final
I've handed in my phone to the seller and got another one back instead.
The end
Exact same problem
Howdy folks,
I have the exact same problem: My Xperia has worked fine for a month. Suddenly I can't register with Tele2 network (tried another Tele2 card as well that didn't work) for calling but have access to data channel so I can surf. Got told by the Tele2 support that my phone was fu**ed up. Got pissed off. Tried a sim for another provider (Telenor) that worked. Called the Tele2 support again. They noticed that I have an old (2g) sim, so they will send a new (3g) card to test if that fixes this mess. It should arrive late this week or early the next. Can't wait...
I'll keep you posted in this thread (or, if I should instead have made a new thread, a moderator may spank me and I will do better).

Nope, new sim-card didn't fix it. But I have found at least one other xperia-user with this problem...
bad GSM signal
I have a X1
rom 1.03.931.10
radio 1.10.25.18
protocol version 52.56.25.29W
and since from the start I have bad GSM signal I have like 1-2 lines onli and it go up to 5line but onli from time to time (and then it drops again to 1-2line or none but If Itray to call is working or I get called but I can berly hear them bicose of the bad signal) on O2 network and in T-mobile is the same no mather wher I'm in town or outside of town; I'm in UK
is the phone damaged?? or...
sry for my bad english
My phone does the same thing
My x1 has had no problem with phone function or network. However, from the last week, the signal began to be lost sometimes, and the machine turned off automatically. and finally today, there is no signal at all.
MY SIM card works with other phones, so, I thought it might be software problem, and hard reseted with new rom. However, still no signal. It keeps looking. Does anyone have the same problem, and hopefully, solution?
I´m using my X1i with Tele2 as my service provider,but i don´t have any problems with signalstrength.. Works just fine..

I know I should've introdouced myself first, and that this is a strange first post, but:
HOLY SMOKES!!!
Xperia has FIVE reception bars????!!!!!
I always thought that 3 is the max value, since it only happened once that it went up to three bars, rest of the time it's maximum 2, usually 1.
I am also on Tele2 carrier, in Sweden that is, and since yesterday, I have no reception AT ALL.
Nothing.
Tried turning off 3G(or whatever it's called), nothing happens.
Tested with 3 other cards (one Tele2, one Telenor, one Telia) - all seem to be working okay. Except that the Tele2 one has slightly lower reception than the others.
Tested with 3 other phones as well - iPhone 3GS, Nokia 5800 Xpress Music, HTC Desire. All of them worked perfectly. Full coverage on that super-fast network thingy(the 3G symbol on iPhone).
Internet is just flowing on other phones - but Xperia is just falling behind in the most important section - reception.
Calls get dropped (2/3 of the calls), I must send same message at least 3 times in order to get it sent, Internet is crappy - if there's any at all.
Any kind of guidance is mostly appreciated.
P.S. A bit of those numbers which seem to be important:
Microsoft Windows MobileR 6.1 Professional
CE-OS 5.2.19608 (Build 19608.1.2.60)
ROM-version: 1.05.936.9
ROM-date: 04/19/09
Radioversion: 1.14.25.55
Protocol version: 1.0.11842.32680
Since all of you seem to have problems with one and the same carrier (Tele2) why don't you simply switch to another one? I once had a problem that was very alike the one described here and after several unsuccessful attempts of the carrier to fix it I simply switched to another one and all my problems were gone.

Nexus one not reconnecting to mobile network

My N1 will not reconnect to a mobile network if it has been sitting for a few hours in a no-coverage area, such as a building. I cannot get it to reconnect, even after refreshing the network search. This action only leaves me with no result or a message saying that there was an error in searching or connecting to mobile networks. The only solution is to restart the phone. Every time I try to turn the phone off after this error has occurred, the shutdown sequence hangs until either I become frustrated and do a battery pull, or it automatically restarts and do a battery pull, or it automatically restarts itself. Furthermore, the phone used to give me an error notification saying that the phone does not have carrier service. Now, it does not. Furthermore, the phone used to give me an error notification saying that the phone does not.
I tried uninstalling all my programs and nothing has worked for me. I've also tried toggling the airplane mode to no avail.
I'm considering putting on the cyanogen ROM to see if it would fix this error, but I am hesitant to void my warranty. It's a pretty serious problem as I'm very frequently in a building where I don't get service. It's quite frustrating to have to wait to reconnect to a mobile network once I leave the building and hope that the error didn't occur or have to do a battery pull every time I realize that the phone simply won't reconnect.
Can anyone suggest any solutions?
Mod it. What have you got to lose? Your overall performance will increase. The radio signal may even improve. Your call.

thanks for the tip. i've been thinking about it. it's the warranty i don't want to lose. eh i'll keep thinking about it.
this phone sucks. it's glitchy, can be sluggish. iphone got dumbed down but at least its functions work.

Hey!
You dont want to lose your warranty, then use it!
Your phone seems to be faulty...
My phone is experiencing the same problem as of yesterday. Won't connect. Wonder if it's a T-Mobile issue.

Its only glitchy coz you have stock rom
Cyanogen is really stable and adds alot of features / functionality.
Fair enough you dont want to lose warranty but i remember in the general thread that lots of hardware failures and others can still fix your n1 under warranty even though they unlocked the bootloader.
I too have this problem, hopefully the 2.2 update will fix the problems.
Can you guys confirm if its android or your service provider thats causing this...

I have the same problem and it's starting to bother me a lot because my car is parked in a garage with no coverage. My in-car BT then becomes useless as my phone won't reconnect to the network once I exit the garage
I just called Google support 10 mins ago about this and they went through normal protocol to reset to factory settings. They then called Tmo and let them know what the issue was while I was still on the phone. Tmo unregistered my phone from the network while my battery was taken out of my phone and then reregistered my phone to the network. Tmo asked me to monitor this for a few days and call them directly (not Google) if the issue persists. They will then elevate this to a higher level because they feel this would be a network problem, and not a hardware issue.
Hope this helps! Please post what you have tried to solve the problem!

^ it worked! my phone reconnects to the cellular network after what Google/Tmo did for me on the phone!
I haven't tried calling tmobile, but it is NOT something that will be fixed by hopping on cyanogen's rom. I've been rooted on cyanogen's rom for quite some time and this problem still exists on my n1 which is SUPER annoying. I will try calling tmobile to see if they can fix it on their side, but rooting is not the fix here.
I had the same issue. I used anycut and phone info shortcut and changed the wireless default setting to us and it totally fixed the problem. Have not had that issue again.

I resolved this by going to the T-Mobile store where they replaced my SIM card. They made a copy to a new SIM card, installed it and everything works fine.
For the record symptoms included:
* "Error while searching for network" message
* Found networks but said "your SIM card is not authorized for this network" when connecting
* Network listed as "No service" or "Emergency calls only | T-Mobile"
I get this too with an at&t phone.
Have asked for a replacement device from HTC (since the reception is crappy to begin with).
I also have audio quality problems when reception is only 1-2 bars.
Will see if the new phone is better.
I had this problem regularly. It hasn't happened once since I upgraded to Froyo, so I think it has been fixed in that release.
sometimes have this too, i fix it by going to the settings > wireless > mobile networks > APN. at first i deleted and retyped my password in the selected APN, now i just click my network in the APN settings, don't change anything and leave. It immediately reconnects after that.
edit: and i have stock froyo & live in belgium.
I got a new, replacement phone from HTC today.
This new phone has a BIG PROBLEM with this issue.
Even if I am only without reception for a couple of seconds (go through the garage, etc.) it will not connect to any network until I reboot.
My old phone would only experience this problem maybe 25-35% of the time.
Very, very annoying!!!

I had similar issues and called tmobile support. I was first linked to Google support. They went through the similar process as described by in the first page. (#*#*4636*#*# select USA band etc). While I was on hold, they called t mobile tech support and had them reset network connection and tried to get me onto a different tower etc.
Tmobile support stated that my sim card (had for about 2 years) was the cause of the issue as they can't handle smartphones as well as their new sim cards. They also said the new sim should improve reception and connection stability (Don't see how a new sim could do this but what do I know?). Moreover, they noted my account and told me to go into the nearest store for a new sim card. Went into the nearest tmobile store told them the issue, they pulled up my account and gave me a new sim. Took less then 5 minutes and I have not had the issue with staying connected to the tmobile network.
I will update this after a few days to see if I still have the issue.
I have the same problems that i cannot connect to network here in germany. first i think it was my sim card, but befor i had another provider (E-Plus) where i had the same problems with reconnecting to network. and one day my eplus sim card is broken so i had to buy a new one by t-mobile. i have tried a lot of roms from here (cyanogen/ 5.0.7 /5.0.8T5 Kangorama rodriquezstyle and leofroyo) everyone seems to have the same problems with reconnecting to network. i hope im not alone with my problems and someone can help.
hmm...
Count me as another. I just upgraded to froyo and it went beserk. Had no service for a while. It would only come on after constantly tapping "select network automatically" until it kicked me out of the menu. It started getting better but kept kicking me out of 3g. I set it to stay always on 3g and it seems to be better... still I'm going to call tmobile and see if I can get a new sim as well.
Thanks for the info guys!

[Q] No Phone signal on topaz

Hello,
I recently (5days ago) updated my topaz to the latest energy rom (after a HardSPL) and everything went fine.
After 2 days I noticed I didn't have any signal anymore so I was unable to make/receive calls. The signal worked before and now suddenly it is gone.
GPS and Wifi work like a charm but I can't get on a phone network. When searching for networks it finds all the networks in the neighbourhood but when I try to register to it, it fails.
I tried like 5 different radio roms with no success. I even tried to go back to the stock rom and undo hardSPL with no success either.
What could be the problem and maybe someone has a solution for this.
Greetings,
Devillino
What happens when you select your carrier after initial flashing of the ROM?
It's solved now
Want to the a service center of the carrier and it seemed my simcard was outdated.
Guess I was lucky having this problem right after replacing the roms
They replaced the simcard and everything is working fine now.

[Q] N7000 3G Radio failing

I've had my GT-N7000 for about a year. It has been rooted and running various ROMs since I had it and has always worked wonderfully. I had settled on CM 10.1 about a month ago. Since the last 3-4 days I noticed that my 3G signal showed no bars from time to time. Normally, just a quick 'airplane mode' dip and everything would be fine.
2 days ago was still having the same problem and I had to completely turn off and on again to 'maybe' get a signal. If I got a signal, it would only stay there for a few minutes and then disappear.
I changed the SIM card yesterday just to be sure but I still had the same problem. The same SIM card works perfectly well in my GT-I9000 running CM 10.1 as well.
I cleaned the SIM slot contacts, verified the internal antenna wire and even flashed a few modems and still have short lived and intermittent 3G signal. Any idea about what could be happening? Could it be the 3G radio failing on me?
Thanks for any help.
JF.
Anyone?
Does this happen after you move from one area to another? For instance from work to home or Vice Versa?
same problem
Hi there,
I've got the same problem than you. I got my Note 1 year ago, and since few days, I've a problem with the SIM.
On boot or reboot, the SIM is perfectly recognized and works good. I can call without problem, and can connect to the wifi without problem. The problem is when I use 3g, the SIM is not recognize after 1-2 minutes. I mean, I can access internet, do whatever I want, for just a minute or two. After that, the signal drop instantly. I tried:
plane mode: doesn't come back to normal mode cause the phone says there no SIM card
change modem: don't resolve the problem on all XX*** modem for JellyBean
change ROM: I was on German-leaked 4.1.2 Stock ROM, i tried 4.1.2 Switzerland ROM (where I live), 4.1.2 custom ROM and cynogenmod 10.1 (4.2.2). Always the same problem.
Tonight I'll try another SIM in the phone, in the case that the SIM is the problem.
otherwise, I don't know what else to try...

Hi there,
I've got the same problem than you. I got my Note 1 year ago, and since few days, I've a problem with the SIM.
On boot or reboot, the SIM is perfectly recognized and works good. I can call without problem, and can connect to the wifi without problem. The problem is when I use 3g, the SIM is not recognize after 1-2 minutes. I mean, I can access internet, do whatever I want, for just a minute or two. After that, the signal drop instantly. I tried:

You're ****ed if it's the same problem! I tried a lot of technique and the one I warn you about is changing the RIL. Useless waste of time and ****ed up everything. At the end I tried an app available on the play store for thé modem, can't remember which one. But hey, you're on the track!
Good luck

Are you sure it is the radio causing the problem and not the antenna? I know on mine, the USB charge port can be a real PITA when it
goes bad, and I had to buy about 3 before I found one that worked properly. With the wrong one, the radio signal would fluctuate all
over the place, so that's why I wonder if it could be a bad antenna/connection/board problem, since it is contained on the same
board as the USB port?

I had an update..
I figured out that when i change the network mode to GSM ONLY it runs very well and never drops network signal or get the NO SIMCARD message..
but when i change the mode to AUTO or 3G/CDMA it drops network and gets NO SIM CARD after a few minutes !!
still don't know the reason & still searching
Let's talk about this problem. Mine is similar. Not getting errors with aim card but when i place or receive calls while in wcdma mode, conversation is normal at first place, then after few seconds i can not hear other side, and other side cannot hear me, sometimes that call ends and that is it. On gsm only, calls work normally, but internet is not working, while in wcdma internet works... pretty nasty issue. I tried flashing different roms, tried several modems to flash, problem is not disappearing, but from modem to modem i can see improvements. Sometimes it does not drop at all... can you help me with this?
