Well you need to write back you apn settings for your carrier.
That is one thing that you should have made a backup of before you flashed.
These settings you can often find on your carrier webpage.

[Q] Motorola Milestone without 1800 baseband

Hello guys,
I have a motorola milestone from Brazil, and I used to have a chip from TIM working normally (at 1800 Mhz band). Until then, I was on cyanogenmod 7 but it was to laggy, then I tried to install Telus lite 5.2 rom (eclair). Till then, I can´t get anymore my chip from TIM working again. I put other chips (CLARO), and they work normally. I changed from androidani menu the baseband and tried others baseband fixers. I recover my nandroid backup and the problem remains. In fact, my question is: Is it a problem with my phone or with the operator? May I be blocked or something, once it says that this operator is unavailable, when I try to set manually from settings menu? Every other things on my phone are working perfectly, like wifi, gps, but with this operator, I can´t get registered. Anyone could, please, explain what could be happening?
Is it a technical problem, I see now that TIM (1800) or CLARO (900/1800) so maybe its working only at 900 band.. Is it possible or it´s a block from operator?
Thanks in advance for reading and awaiting a possible answer!!

Someone please give me a light!! Anticipated thankssss

At this point I if I were you I'd go into recovery wipe data, wipe cache, do a factory reset, and then flash back to the stock factory image.

I tried already shimp208. I deleted everything, all 3 wipes, but I´m not getting to connect with RSD-lite. When I put in download mode, it appears as SF flash OMAP 3040 and I get flash bootloader, but the sbf files from stock rom from Brazil I didn´t get, cause the button "start" appears gray. When with the phone turned on, I can get MTP driver from motorola, so I thing it´s not being recognized by RSD-lite. Any other suggestion?? Pleasseeee?? Thanks in advance!!!

Are you falshing the SBF on windows or linux? I'd try using linux if your currently using Windows and see if that helps at all. Sometimes SBF on windows can be quite stubborn.

I made it shimp, through windows.. I installed sbf from stock thank God, but, anyway, Im only working at 900 gsm band, I suppose. I would glad to know if its an issue from my phone that get locked to this baseband (900) or if it was blocked by operators to work with their bands (850 and 1800).. Do u know if there's some zip to get radio reinstalled or something? Thanks in advance!

Yup definitely think it could fix your radio problem because its a factory image wich should contain the appropriate baseband radio's to fix your problem. But like you said let me know how it goes.

I did with another version of TIM sbf (a newer, I guess), then it started ok with the new rom, but it still don´t get registered on TIM network.. :sad .. Thanks for attention!!

Hmm maybe you could try extracting just the baseband from the ROM and flashing that to see if that had any effect

Well.. Unfortunately I don't know how to do it.. Do u mind to explain? Or point me some link where I can extract this from a sbf file? Thanks man! ¡!
Edited.: do u think it could be restored at technical support? Or doing all this stuff I've been doing is what support would do? Could this be a block from network maybe? I'm getting nuts.. Cause my phone works perfectly at 900 Mhz band, but not anymore at others..

So the more I think about the more I think I might have an better idea of what to do. You said you tried the other SBF and it started ok but didn't get registered on the network so that leads me to believe it defiantly related to carrier network operation not the phone hardware being defective. It's possible that when you switched SIM cards that it did trigger a network block from the other carrier and that is is locking you out even though you switched back. I would recommend taking a look at these links for to unlock the SIM:
How to Unlock Motorola & enter Subsidy code instantly / Remove "SIM Network Unlock"
http://sim-unlock.net/sim-lock/75/Unlock_for_any_New_Motorola_Defy_Flipout_Milestone/
If that doesn't fix it then you could take it to technical support and explain the situation to them, and perhaps they can re-setup your phone to work with their network.

Well... I guess it´s not my problem, cause it doesn´t ask for any unlock code.. After all this, I suppose that or technical support as you said, or maybe carriers have locked my phone by imei, and it happened after I installed Telus lite v5.2....On that thread, it said that was take off some frequencies to get more lite as possible, but if wanted could be replaced the other frequencies with a zip.. but it never worked.. .. The strange part is that one of them is ok.. And it´s from 900 Mhz frequency.. I´ll try technical support at first.. Thank you so much shimp, for all your patience and support.. I´ll let you know if I get it working again.. Bye for now!!

APN list is blank and new APNs cannot be added

I flashed AOKP Milestone 6 last night and have been setting up this Captivate as my boyfriend's first smart phone but I've run into a problem: I can't seem to save an APN. He'll be using it on Straight Talk so I checked out this thread: Straight Talk APN Settings. I entered all that information into their fields, hit menu > save, and was taken back to a blank screen titled "APNs."
I've tried this three times and rebooted each time but always in vein. I thought that it may be this way because there is no SIM card inside but, were that the case, why wouldn't APNs change with the SIM card? Any help would be very welcome. I just want him to be able to slip his SIM card into the phone and bask in the glory that is the smart phone without having to fix anything. Cars are his thing, computers are mine.

It was soft-bricked for a while but the download mode jig allowed me to Odin back to stock before moving to AOKP.

Seems having the "Proxy: Not set" and "Port: Not set" worked for some users.

I did. It doesn't seem to matter what I put in or don't (aside from the four required fields: Name, APN, MCC, and MNC) it'll let me either save or back out but always take me back to the blank APN list.

Ok...see this... http://tracfone.deviceanywhere.com/...Id=893&cid=557921&conversationPropagation=end
The settings are different...
Maybe this will work for ya. :good:
Worth a try at least.

They didn't list any values for the MCC and MNC, both of which are required. I used the values given in the XDA post, hit save, and was taken back to a blank APN list.
I don't think that the contents matter. It seems to be something else.
I wonder how the APNs are stored. If it's something like an XML file somewhere on the phone then it could be that the permissions are wrong and Android can't write to the file. I'll try using Clockwork Mod to fix the permissions and see if that helps. There's also a feature in AOKP to have a script do it every startup; I'll try it as well and report back.

No dice. If it's a permissions issue it's not something that either could fix.

U may have to try a different Rom.
?? Don't know what the deal is...

Judging from the fact that I saw Straight Talk apns listed above I'm assuming you are on that? Anyway if the answer to that is yes I might suggest CM10 or HellyBean both of which have the proper APNs entered by default for Straight Talk.

Unlocking phone for European trip on Slim Bean 4.1.2 ROM

Hello,
I gave my girlfriend my phone running Slim Bean 4.1.2 ROM on my captivate for her trip throughout Europe. I assumed it was unlocked and would work with any GSM carrier in Europe if she bought a SIM card and popped it in. Well, I was wrong and it didn't work and now I'm in a pickle. Can someone please give me an easy solution to unlock the phone!!!!!!! She has to be able to figure it out with me explaining it to her. I was thinking a zip file she could flash in CWM, but anything easy would be most definitely great.
Sincerely, SP

GalaxSim Unlock app by Spocky from the Play Store. The ability to do the unlock isn't free but should do the job on the Rom she has on her phone now.
The other unlock app by helroz, u would have to flash back to Stock first then unlock...i think.

Thank you sir. This is exactly what I'm looking for. She's asleep atm, but when she wakes up she'll give it a go.

This may sound stupid. Can you get the unlock code from ATT? After 1 year they are supposed to provide this 4 free?

Help after root & flashing S note N7000 SIM PIN code

Hello.
After root and update my ICS 4.0.4 to v2_c_o_h_s_XXLT4_Lite_Snote2 I got a Yellow triangle in boot menu.
Saw some posts in xda and and installed a old version rom GB 2.3, using the app "triangle away" to reset counter and it worked. After this installed back the v2_c_o_h_s_XXLT4_Lite_Snote2 and v2.1 update. Now I'm having an issue about SIM PIN pop window, it doesn't come on. Tried full wipe data, Live note 4 ROM and the problem remain. The only ways to get SIM card working is removing PIN in security menu or deactivate and activate sim pin in that menu in order to register to sim network. Anyone had this issue or have a solution for this kind of "problem". Before, with first ROM this didn't happened.
Sorry about english. Hoppe you understand.
Regards.

Please check your IMEI. Does it start with 00049...?
(And do not post your complete IMEI...)

Then you will become a user of my Custom Rom , because I have the same problem and solved it for me with a workaround.
From the start:
You ruined your EFS and so your IMEI is a so called "developer IMEI" now. See your original number inside of your device (remove battery). If you didn't backup the EFS you can't repair the IMEI yourself.
There is one polish guy who can repair IMEI remotely (www.cvxcvx.pl) - he takes some money for it.
As a workaround you have to use an android.policy.jar from one of the early JB dumps (I use it with my Custom Rom). Then the Sim card is recognized after booting and you get network connection.
If you do not use this you only can disable the pin check
or
change the sim pin (simply use the old one as new one, so you do not have to remember a new number).

Really?...
I didn't knowed! And if I install a stock rom, it will remain the issue?
So, the only solution is to have the phone without sim pin? (I didn't made any efs recovery if I'm rememeber).
Do you think it could be the "triangle away" app that made it?

Sorry about it, didn't know I can ask about values here in post. And your custom rom is posted here in xda forum?
I didn't looked at imei under battery. Custom rom changed my IMEI .
Now I understood all history/idea.
It means there are more than one cell with same Imei, right?
