Hi, I have a weird problem: Have been using CM 7 latest nightlies for a while now with BB502 and was quite happy with it. Today after a few calls, I suddenly cannot call anyone and noone can reach me. It says that I am connected but there is no sound, neither through the earpiece nor the speaker. Other people just get "Person you are calling is not available..." - I haven't changed anything! Flashed back to old backups, but does not help. WIFI and Data still working.
Is my phone dead..?
Thanks in advance!!
got the same problem for 3 days now.
but its not CM7, nor LGO2x, its the Simcard. Its broken or its about to brake.
Thank you, good to know that I am not the only person... How did you figure out that it is the SIM card? I tried to remove and reinsert it, but without any success.. Will try another one when I get home.
I also had this Problem today after i inserted another sim card.
I flashed the baseband to 725 and everything is working again.
absolutely not dev related ....
Request a mod to push this to the general section,
also check your Telephony setting if it is switched to unknown instead to WCDMA pref or GSM only)
Did you perform a Factory reset lately? Froze any apps ?
I just had this with ril 0622 gb leaked,changed to 0622 open Europe and good as new.

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 ?
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.
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.
(SOLVED)
Hello,
recently, my O2 sgs will only stay on "emergency calls only" in all different areas where it used to have signal before. I've tried to manually select the network and even though O2 is available, it doesn't connect (register) with it and says "unable to connect, try again later"
tried many different roms, differend modems, but no luck. fed up.
can anyone help me please?

modem problems
i've told that i already tried many different roms (cm, ezbase, miui...) and modems
I had the same problem with CM7 before after installing if GApps (Google Apps = Market, GMail, Youtube,...). Then I booted into recovery, wiped cache and Dalvik Cache (didn't help) and finally I chose 'fix permissions'. Now everythings is okay again.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
have tried, but still it stays on "emergency calls only". what's weird is that it even doesn't call any emergency numbers (says out of service area)...
desperately need help with this, or should i just give it back to the o2 shop... android is the biggest pain...
But the SIM is inserted correctly? Have you tried another SIM? Maybe your SIM-card is defect.
ok, i had another t-mobile sim in my phone and it is working ok. but the o2-sim will not connect, even though it works on other phones well.
what's wrong???

Call O2 and ask vor a new sim because this one probably is damaged.
They'll send u a new SIM for free. I had a similar problem with a dual sim of t-mobile.
Is your phone SIM- or netlocked?
same problem here....suddenly it went emergency call only.have to reset and only then can get the signal back.it really pain in the neck
Mine is GT-i9100 btw
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...

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?
