I'm using a I897 (the canadian Rogers one) Cappy on Vivo network in Brazil. it uses the Andromeda 3 Rom, Ursa minor version, firmware 2.2.
It was working fine. last week, I got it on recovery mode to wipe Battery status. while there, I also clicked on "wipe cache partition" and "fix permissions" (under the advanced options).
since then, It no longer connect to the Vivo network. it stays on "Emergency calls only" state. I even had a factory reset, but the problem remains unsolved.
anyone have any idea on what should i do?
Try resetting to default your APN.

Nope. did not work. and when I try to manually select the operator on "Network operators" menu, it says "unable to connect, try later".
no other ideas?

Hi guys,
So I had this problem before, but the Captivate magically fixed itself. This time... not so much. Or not yet anyway.
Upon boot I get a "No network" symbol. Sometimes it shows the bars on boot, but quickly reverts to the no network status. I just flashed the newest version of Cognition with the accompanying kernal. I have bounced around through various roms and kernals all night, but the problem seems to carry over (even after wiping the data/cache/return to blah blah).
Any ideas?
Try some other modem......

Crispy1805,
Try going to Access Point Names and tap menu then Reset to default. Once it populates at the top of ur screen, tap the dot, it will turn green and u should be good to go.
Menu/ Settings/ Wireless and network/ Mobile networks/ Access point names/ then menu/ "Reset to default" then tap the dot selector. Reboot should not be needed.

Apn are for data right, is this anyway related to connectivity to the network.
Yes, you need to be accessing at&t's access point to connect to it's network...
Hm, tried that, no avail. The problem is that it is not detecting any "bars" at all. I removed the sim, same problem. My Infuse is showing bars in the same location, so its not a network problem.
Did you make a backup of your efs folder you can restore?
Good point, let me check and try that if I can find it.
gah, I cant find it.
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15158920 ... Use the 3 file version. It is kf1 stock, but the kf1 came with a seperate CSC .tar file and the kf1 is a full wipe... Worth a shot. But u need to already have the i897 bootloaders.
If this works, then u can move on to kh3 or whatever u r wanting to go to...

I flashed back to stock (enclair---odin 1 click and master clear), but it is still not showing any network /bars. I tried this --
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881162
but all of the values were already correct. When I check for an IMEI it says "not registered on the network" --- but it can't SEE the network as far as I can tell, so that makes sense. Perhaps the network card isn't coming on at boot?
Any more ideas?
This had happened to me recently, Some how 1 of my captivate lost the original imei and had the generic one 0000461090000, When u chek under the status it shows the details but no connectivity. I restored the imei and all ok.
Mine has its generic IMEI. It was sim locked for some reason, but I fixed that--- still no signal , just the blue circle with the bar through it. Under status:
Network -- Unknown
Signal Strength -- 0 dBm 0 asu
Mobile network type -- GRPS
Service State -- Out of Service
Roaming -- Not Roaming
Mobile network state -- Disconnected
Again, the Infuse right beside it is picking up signal (2 bars of "4G" i.e. 3.5G)
Update: Flashed to 2.3
Now the signal strength -- -111dBm 1asu
The rest is still the same :-\
Generic imei does not works in India we cannot register without a proper imei but it works in US members here have confirmed this. Check your lock status with *#7465625# what it says.

Just out of curiosity...If I make a backup of my efs folder now while running the FASTY II (KH3 i897 ROM) then flash say, Rom EPIC (JVS I9000 ROM) and end up having no network (This actually happened) will I be able to successfully restore the efs folder without having any problems?
Yes you can restore it.
Do you think its an EFS folder problem? I am clueless at this point.
Code:
You have a generic imei and it is quite possible the problem is coz of that.

No, I do not have a generic IMEI.
A few months ago, i had the non-function problem with my camera after using the firmware update code, on my SG I9000. I resolved that with some help from a friend, by downgrading to Eclair (JM1_JM1_U_JM1.tar) and switching the camera files - the usual method. After reboot, the camera was working fine but appeared the problem with the network - "NO SERVICE".
Till now, I used different versions of android (Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread) to fix it without any luck.
If you know any other method, i'll owe you one big time.
Thanx!
Note: I have to say that, before having the camera issue, I unlocked my rooted phone using "GALAXY_S UNLOCK" from Android Market.
maybe you can try to flash your phone to the latest firmware such as XXJVU by using odin.
have you rooted your phone again after using different android version? if not, try rooting it, then unlock it with apps from the market, this would fix the "no service" problem.
you could also try flashing it with a different modem.

I tried flashing with different modem but without any good result until now. Today I'll try again with a different modem (something with a file "7zip" transformed in a folder ".tar"...I'm new with this, i know nothing about it so a friend is helping me).
If this doesn't work, I'm trying the rooting method you're telling me about.
Thanx for all!
The JVT modem is pretty god as well. you can flash the tar or zip files by using sgs kernel flasher from market or by odin.

It seems that I resolved it, using the I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA modem (Open Europe). At first, when the phone rebooted there was no signal...it appeared that the problem persisted, but now, after the factory reset (*2767*3855# ) everything seems to work just fine.
Still, I don't remember if SGS signal icon shows the 3G indicator in the upper taskbar (like the SGS 2), because mine doesn't! Can anyone confirm if it's wright or not?
Last edit: It seems the 3G doesn't work, as i tried to access the internet an icon pops saying "No network connection / Cannot connect to internet. Please check your connection settings and try again" - "Settings" and "Ok". If I press "Settings", it takes me to the "Wireless and Network" Menu.
SO, ANY CLUE?
Thanx again!
Have you tried flashing a different modem? What carrier are you on and what modem are you currently using?
Had a bit of a browser glitch, there were zero replies a minute ago.

I'm using an Orange Romania prepay card...and now the installed version is I9000XXJVU (the latest 2.3.6 - Open Europe).
I have signal but without 3G, i think, cause the internet connection doesn't work...only wi-fi does.
with the 3g problem, i think you need to edit your apn settings.
settings > wireless and network > mobile network settings > access point names
this is network specific and you might want to check it with your provider

I'll check the APN settings later today, after work, and if the problem persist I'll take it to Orange Romania.
I'll let you know the result!

I got home, set on my SGS the same APN settings from the SGS-2 I'm using now with the Orange Romania card, and it seems to work...at least I don't get the "No network connection / Cannot connect to internet" message anymore and the H/3G icon now appears near the signal icon in the upper taskbar.
I stiil have to run some tests to be 100% sure it really works.
I'll be in touch!
Can someone help me.. i was resetting my wife's i9000 Galaxy S as it was running slow. And since its booted up i doesn't pick up the network anymore.. and when trying to call out it says "data network not availible".... driving me insane!

Ok, since posting i have managed to Update the fiirmware to 2.3.3 gingerbread using odin. But am still unable to use it on o2/Tesco mobile or even on Tmobile now! Emergency calls only, and gives the error (mobile network not available). I might be wrong, but i suspect something like the firmware for the modem or something?..

in Phone app dial *#06# and see if your imei is intact .. if it's gone then you have to flash a GB rom, root it again and return to CM10 . Use this guide if your imei is gone : [Guide]Upgrade SGS I9000 to 2.3.6 (Value Pack) & Root It

Ok I think I've worked out where the problem lies. Think it is a bad efs/imei as its displaying wrong after entering *#06# etc.. "004999010630000" grrr. So now need to work out how to get this back
I have a problem with my phone's 3G connection.... It doesn't work! Edge works, and i don't know if LTE works (no support in my area). It happened after some exploring in the service menu (*#197328640#). First i got the message "SIM card Psuedo locked" or something, and now after i restored efs and returned everything to stock i just get "Only emergency calls" when I'm on a 3G network. If i select GSM only, my phone works just fine. If i destroyed something in the service menu, how can i restore it? Is there a way to debug, to se what causes the problem?
Flash stock rom odin.
Hard reset?

It's stock now, got the firmware from sammobile (flashed with odin)
I did a facrory restore / delete userdata..
Can i reset everything done in the service menu?
I have a p925g rogers canada. It had a problem while updating and was bricked, no lg logo, no vibrate, nothing.
I managed to revive it a month later using Smartflashtool and lgp925_ap.bin and lgp925_CP.fls and that got me the logo back but the phone would reboot in less than one second of logo appearing.
So I then used LG mobile support tool and did a recovery, it recognized the imei in download mode and now the phone is up and running on 4.0.4. with baseband omap4430/xmm6260 and build number is ICS and software version is p925g30c
This phone is unlocked. I put in a koodo sim card and no luck. I get "No service"
Under phone identity i get the imei, the imei sv, they are all there but my phone number is "unknown" and I can never connect to the mobile network.
I've read many threads on here, about 12 hours now, and I'm seeing "flash baseband" etc. I dont even know how to do that with an LG. I've done many sammy's and used odin and cwm/twrp so I do have some experience with the process.
I'd appreciate any help with this. Please don't point me to a tread that just says "flash a new baseband" I don't know how lol.
sorry in advance.

would you believe that I re-did all the apn and after about an hour, it started working,
Couldn't have done it without XDA
PS I hate cellphones.
Which is why I love them.

Hmm sometimes rebooting a few times after an update helps things work better. Well, good it works.
still wont do messaging, and drops the network alot, also getting "Reorganizing internal processes" when I try to call but it goes thru after a few tries. I may try a custom rom if I can ever get into recovery mode (it wont let me)
correction, mms is working sometimes just like calls. Factory reset a few times. no difference.
edit - no data whatsoever. All apn setting correct, all settings rechecked. network unavailable.
no IMEI & no SIGNAL (network)
Could someone help me?
I flashed my LG THRILL 4G (AT&T) with official stock P925 V30B rom (with SMARTFLASH) but lost the IMEI and no NETWORK. :crying:
What can I do now?
Thanks!!
Use Flash Tool. See link above.
