[Q] Emergency calls only - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] My Note cannot make/receive phone calls anymore :(

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
/Tubgirl
I have a similar issue, some times i cant call and receaved calls ends few seconds after hanging up.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
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??
Brgds... /Tubgirl
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?

Note 5 (SM-N9208) Call related issues

Hello,
I have SM-N9208 with T-Mobile(personal) and ATT(work) sims (build number NRD90M.N9208ZTS3CQK1 just updated) and I have been having call issues when I try to use T-Mobile sim.
When try to make a call using T-Mobile sim, most of the time either me or the other party cannot hear each other when the call gets connected. Some times call does not even go through and some times it connects just fine!
I had replaced the T-Mobile sim, tried with ATT sim out, tried with headphones and bluetooth but issue/s remains. I just updated the phone with above build but still no luck! I did not root this or flashed with any rom (factory or otherwise) thus far. All the updates were always done through wifi. A few days ago I had also reset this to factory default and erased everything and I installed everything from play store with out restoring from backup. Nope that did not solve the issue either! I also notice now that when call is ongoing with on T-Mobile sim and if data is set to T-Mobile, I see E instead of 4G! By the way I am in northern NJ( not sure if T-Mobile is changing something on their end). Any call plased through ATT sim goes fine whether it is SIM1 slot or SIM2 slot.
Has anyone ever seen this and any help is greatly appreciated.
Also, can I load firmware from another country (say Philippines since I think my current firmware is Tiwan)?
Thanks,
Chuck

Mi 9 - Android Q Mobile Network isn't available

Hi,
I just bought a Mi 9 for my gf as Birthday gift and have a big problem with it.
We use her Simcard from her further phone, which works there without issues, but the Mi 9 just let her use Data on the simcard (internet). No calls or texts in-/ outbound are possible. It always shows that no mobile network is available.
I already readded all APNs (Internet, LTE, GPRS) and tried a couple different network settings (*#*#4636#*#*). I'm not sure why this issue appears and searched allover the internet. Seems like noone else have this problem.
Version is 11.0.2.0(QFAMIXM) with locked bootloader. Could it be that seller flashed something wrong, modem type or whatever? Carrier lock wouldn't let us use the actual sim right? My own sim as well just work with data so it need to be an issue with the phone.
Thanks in advance
Chris
Noone have any idea what the issue could be?
This seems like an operator related issue and probably has nothing to do with the Mi9. Try operator related forums for more help. The only thing that comes to mind is to get a new sim from the operator.

Question:
Does mi9 recognize the SIM Card? Does mi9 ASK for your SIM Card PIN? Or does mi9 say 'no SIM Card installed'?
Hi,
Sim is recognized and contacts shown. Sim pin is deactivated so the Phone don't ask.
Mobile Network is shown and active and data/ internet works. Its just the GPRS funtions (Text, Calls) which don't work. When I try to call I get the "Mobile Network isn't available" message and texts don't sent.
Thanks

The Sim works fine in another phone and my sim which works as well, shows the same errors in the Mi 9. So it must be an phone issue.

What operator do you use? What operators are the respective cards you have tried in the Mi9? Did you buy the phone from a private person and not new in a sealed package? In this case contact the seller.

Do you have 2 simcards installed?
You also might try to reset the modems, howto you can find when searching the forum
Just 1 sim installed. 2nd slot shows the same issues. Will check the forum for modem reset thanks.
Hi,
Weirdly the phone seem to have a Carrier Lock. My gf uses SMART Prepaid here on the Philippines and as said just mobile data was working. Yesterday she switched the SIM for testing to Globe and with this SIM everything works. 4G is available and calls/ texts work as they should.
I'm still confused about this. If the Phone would be carrier locked, should another Carrier SIM not be functional at all? I don't get why Data connections are working then.
For now the solution is to get another SIM. Probably let it unlock in a store.
Regards
Chris

After Android 10 update no phone calls possible

Hi,
I got the update to android 10 yesterday and installed it. My provider is Vodafone DE.
After update, I'm not able to make any calls (or receive ones) anymore.
I already figured out, that this problems does not exists when I'm disable 4G and switch to 3G only.
I also tried out another carrier (Telekom DE), there the problem does not exists (VOLTE is activated).
I cleaned the cache of phone app and google play services. I also already resettet the network several times.
Any more suggestions what could be problem / how to make phone calls working with 4G enabled?
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem, after update to ANdroid 10 no phone calls with 2G or 4G via vodafone in Germany, SMS and (apparently most of the time?) mobile data works in all 2G/3G/4G; another SIM card from the german provider Telefonica/O2 (under the lable BLAU) works fine; the Vodafone SIM also works in my old mobile.
I noticed something else: in the SIM-card settings (where e.g. the color can be chosen for SIM 1 or 2), while under "Mobilfunkanbieter" for the BLAU-SIM card, there appears O2 -.de, vor the vodafone card, it sais "unbekannt"
Did you already find a solution?
I ordered a new Vodafone SIM, same problem; even resetting the whole device to factory mode didn´t help.
Probalb you are aware of a similar (yet apparently sifferent) problem with Nokia 8.1 in automn (I´m not supposed to post URLs here, you may prbably find it yourself in the vodafone forum, the thread there is in German)?
