Hello there, right, a few questions, me and my wife have galaxy s phones, mine on 3UK, hers she bought second hand today unlocked, she is on vodafoneUK, mine can browse, everything perfectly, hers though, although it works, wont make calls, or internet, says emergency calls only, mobile network not available, I have rooted her phone with CF-XX-JVQ (chainfire i presume), all went well, rooted perfectly, but still no mobile network, when you do *#1234# the PDA,PHONE and CSC end with JVQ (Like mine), tried installing darkys 10.2 rom to see if that would work, installed perfectly....but still no network, put her sim in my phone, great signal, all works! her Imei is correct..... what do I do next??? cant find vodafones rom at all, not sure what modem or files I need!!!
please save my ears from my moaning wife!!!

Are you sure it is unlocked? Emergency calls only is without SIM card, or while the phone is sim-locked...
its been sorted, contacted network, its been imei blocked.

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?

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.

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
Hello, after leaving a earlier post, I really am at the end of my tether with my wifes phone, basically, her sim works in my galaxy s (VodafoneUK) and so does mine (3UK), but put either sim in her phone, it shows a few bars in the signal bar with both sims, but still says 'Emergency Calls only' I/she cannot make any calls on her phone, I previously rooted before, added custom rom, to try and mend problem, also used odin/samifimware to put stock JVQ rom back on her phone, but to no avail (her firmware/modem/etc all ends in JVQ, my phone has nv_data.bin files etc but hers doesnt have these, what can I do to solve this, tried everything and anything so far!
EDIT * DID A CHECK WITH CHECKMEND TO SEE IF PHONE HAS BEEN BLOCKED,IT HAS* currently *UNKNOWN* network has imei blocked the phone
I think my N7000 is broken. Since a couple of days I cannot make or receive phone calls with my SIM card from the carrier 3 (Three Sweden). I've tried two different SIM cards from 3 but it's the same problem. Data traffic still works though since I can surf the Internet without problem. When trying to make a phone call it immediately hangs up, and if I try to make a call to the phone it's unreachable. My phone is unbranded/unlocked BTW.
I've tested with SIM cards from two other carriers and they both work.
The only think I can think of is that 3G voice calls are somehow broken on my N7000. My carrier only supports 3G and maybe that's what's broken... what do you think? (the other cards I tested also supports 2G and maybe that's the reason they worked, but I'm not sure).

I think your issue is the same as mine, though to clarify my issue somewhat:
When the phone does this and I try to make a call it doesn't hang up, it kinds of gets stuck and keeps waiting for the back-end to respond. Similarly, trying to send or receive SMS messages doesn't work either. Rebooting fixes this, though it may happen again quite soon or it may take several days to happen again.
I think it is some background-process related to radio operation getting stuck, though I cannot say what causes it. Factory reset and even full reformat and reset had no effect.
I hope ICS fixes the issue.
What I've tried so far is:
Full wipe - No change
Next step will be to visit my carrier store downtown and test yet another SIM card from them. If that doesn't work I guess I'll have to get it repaired.
Oh yes... I tried another card from another carrier (Telenor) and changed Network Mode from "GSM/WCDMA (Auto mode)" to "WCDMA only" and it still worked. So now I'm not sure why it doesn't work on Tre ?!?

Update: Got a new SIM card from Three but unfortunately it didn't help. Tomorrow I'll send my phone to get repaired :-(

i got the same problem but is t mobile uk, "Data traffic still works though since I can surf the Internet without problem. When trying to make a phone call it immediately hangs up" I tried others sim vodafone, o2 both work without problem.
Factory reset, different stock roms no help...
Yep, same here. I just downgraded to KK4 stock ROM using Odin and it still didn't help.
Cannot send/receive SMS either.

I guess I have a Galaxy Tab 5.3 now

I have a similar issue, some times i cant call and receaved calls ends few seconds after hanging up.

i give up, i changed the network providers to 3 network everythings back to normal.
I can't find the link right now but I read somewhere that there's a hidden area on the phone where IMEI and other carries specific information is stored. As I understand that area is not restored when flashing ROMs. Maybe there's a chance that area has been corrupted??

In my case , I cannot receive call - I believe it is software issue.
Is there any workaround how to fix it ?

Have you checked that your IMEI is fine (matches the one in the box or the one below the battery)?
i doubt its software issue, i also thought that i was having a software issue, after so many roms that i tried flashing, same result. stock or customized. I went to samsung service center and they had it tested, replaced the board that has to do with the antenna, and now everything is working properly.
same issue i have checked imei with the box and it ok, i can connect to 3G but can't make call only emergency call.
tried CSC Change
Galaxy Sim Unlocker and all unlocked
Base Band and Firmware on XXLSZ
the phone is british in italy

Have you guys already tried to use your sims in someone else's phone? Could it be that you have data only plans? Those plans do no allow phone calls even if the device itself can make calls.

Well my case is a bit more complicated.... when i try to dial a number it just black screen and then a popup "Not registered on network" any solution?
Hello friends, how are you?
My name is Renato and I'm from Brazil. Some weeks ago I bought a Galaxy Note N7000 unlocked by TIM operator. It comes with
android 4.0.3 and I never updated the android or did any hacks.
Well, until yesterday, everything was fine. But yesterday, when the phone starts, it find the operator's signal but after some seconds it enter on the
emergency calls only status. Also, even it's blocked for emergency calls only, I can use the internet 3g without a problem! Very very strange...
I already checked my sim card and It works on my older nokia without a problem. Also, I put another sim from another operator (Oi operator) and it works without a problem too. Also I check my sim status at my operator and it´s unblocked too. I did a factory reset too and nothing changes...
Looks like my galaxy note cannot work with TIM sims anymore?
Please if somebody have an idea about this error, please let me know.
I bought a second hand GT-I9305. After the first boot I dicided I wanted to flash it with the CM nichtly. I first rooted the stock rom, flashed a recovery and then flashed CM. Now the problem is the I can't make calls. When I dial a number the phone responds with 'call ended' before it even starts.
I don't know if the phone worked to begin with, the first thing I did is flash it.
I've tried different roms now and reverted back to the 4.3 factory image. None of that fixed the problem. I've also tried putting to 2 or 3G only which didn't help either. My phone still shows an imei number.
I'm completely aware of the fact that I might have done something very stupid. I flashed android devices before but I'm the type of person who reads the manual when it's to late.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this problem?
I'm usint T-mobile on the EE network in the UK.
Problem still unsolved, more information
I'm giving some more information as the problem isn't solved yet.
I'm on a Pay as You Go sim that works fine in another phone (HTC Desire S). I've now also try to downgrade to 4.1.1 but still no luck. I've also tried different sims but the problem occurs with those sims as well.
The phone looks to be registered to the network, at least that's what it shows. Also, data works, I get a 3G and H+ connection,
I'm more than happy to provide more information. Any help is greatly appreciated.
SIM unlocked? Google xda sim unlock GT-i9305...
Phone not locked
Thanks for your reply. The phone is already unlocked.
IMEI blocked? If you're in UK try www.checkmend.com/uk/ it'll cost you 1.99 but might save you time & effort...
