Can´t use simcard: `emergency only` - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 for 3 years now. I flashed different roms and did root my phone in all these years. But... now i received a new sim card which works well in other phones but NOT in my ace. So that must be a problem with my ace.. I just flashed back to the stock rom (XEN - Netherlands S5830XENKS1) via ODIN but the problem is still there, i can't use my sim-card: "Emergency only".
I already wiped data and cleared cache, hard reset... nothing works. What could i try to have my phone back working with sim card so i can call, sms and use my dataplan. My phone have no simlock i checked and the IMEI is also the right. The one shown by #06# is the same as printed behind my battery. I also received a new sim card from my provider, but this one also has the same problem.
I hope you guys can help me out! :good::good::good:
UPDATE 1: I tried differend sim cards in the phone. I always used to have T-Mobile as provider. All other simcards are not working, theyre showing up for a few seconds and after that it says: Emergency calls only. When i put in a T-Mobile sim card the provider keeps displayed, so it looks like my phone only works with a t-mobile card. But it's not sim locked, because i also used differend sim cards before..
UPDATE 2: Now my simyo simcard also connects and i can sms, call and internet. But after a few seconds/minutes again the message: Emergency calls only
WHAT COULD THIS PROBLEM BE??!!??! Strange.............. I really hope someone can help me out this

I think your device has a problem to make contact with sims cards, so your device have a trouble accessing read and use sim cards... You can send your device to the support service, to check or try to fix it...Have your warranty still in effect?

Hello, thanks for your reply! No, my warranty is not active anymore. My phone is 3 years old. Today i went to another city and could call and sms the whole day. No internet. When i came home, i received again the message: emergency only. How strange.. I also could'nt find a good rom or firmware to flash back my phone to the full original software and firmware... Can someone help me on that? I need the newest firmware for the samsung galaxy ace s5830, netherlands version. Or maybe a custom rom which is the most used and stable version. I would like to exclude software reasons, so it might be a hardware problem. But i think it's a software fault cause of the different roms i tried on the phone.

It's very strange.. here it is Netherland's fws, try flashing your device if you want, but I've never heard that strange problem xD
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-S5830&pcode=XEN#firmware
Always when you'll change your custom rom do the 3 wipes to leave your device as clean as possible

Thanks for your fast reply! I did this firmware already yesterday and also wiped dat and cache + recovery... The problem keops showing up I will try this same firmware again and let you know if there are changes or not.

You can also flash whatever fw you want from EUROPE, because your device is unlocked in order to check your sim's trouble

Again flashed the original firmware to my Ace. Wiped data and cleared cache. Everything works..... Except... the simcard. Can't call, can't sms and can't make an internet connection. So, still the same problem. The sim works well in another phone, and another simcard in the Ace gives also "Emergency call only". So it HAS to be something with my phone. Someone any idea's i can try / check now i'm very sure it's a phone problem with original new flashed firmware? I hope it's not an hardware defect......... how can i check?
UPDATE: The only simcard which works well is a T-Mobile prepaid simcard. All other simcards sometimes shows up, but most of the time not. The more strange fact is today: I went to another city and was able to call and sms the whole day. But no internet. When i came home, i received again the message: emergency only. This is so strange and makes me very sad. The phone is simlockfree, WHAT COULD IT BE So strange............

Tomorrow i had internet connection, could call and sms. My provider was shown on the screen and nothing wrong. But unfortunately just for a few minutes... No stable connection.

Someone any idea? :crying:

I too faced this problem once.....What I did is that I just formatted the system , wiped data , cache , sd ext and dalvik cache and then restored a backup of my earlier ROM in which the Sim was working ! And it was fixed....

Thanks for your reply! I did your trick but unfortunately... It did'nt help. Very interesting thing is, while i'm traveling around there is no problem, but as soon as i stop driving and walk around, the problems are back. Someone any idea on this strange problem? :crying:

cant access sim
until now this is problem...
why they cant fix this important setting
better to back to stock rom.
is does all are working
yeah CM's are good but still
many bugs and error
like this one.
not STK, sim contact save
and show in contact app
i hope they fix this one asap

You dont have any choice other than visiting the service centre. Yes they may charge you a good amount but seems none of the methods are working.
Also try contacting your service provider maybe thay know the exact reason.

[Q] Data network not available

Not sure where to post this as I have the Galaxy S i9003 not the original Galaxy S.
My phone is 2 days old. I am new to android platform. Rooted using superoneclick and applied lagfix using a market app.
Yesterday I removed my SIM card to use it in another phone but when I put it back in i9003, it did not detect the SIM Card. I tried hard reset - no use.
*#06# shows no IMEI no. Its blank.
*#1234# gives:
PDA : I9003DDKB2
Phone: Unknown
CSC: I9003ODDKA6
Settings > wireless and network > mobile network shows: Insert SIM card
But the SIM card works well in other phones. Please help
PS: There is no stock froyo firmware for India (DD) available on net I guess.
Its nothing realated with rooting, I jus rooted mine yesterday and having no problems. Is any other sim working on your mobile or vice versa?
The SIM works in other phones and no other SIM works in the phone.
Then may be you should try factory resetting your mobile and try again. If that doesnt helps(most probably it would), then you have to take it to the nearest service center

Doesn't help. I have done that thrice. I guess taking it to service center is the only choice I got as stock rom for India is not available to public yet.
Why dont you try another sim, may be from a friend just for checking... Or it could be SIM card slot related issue. There is no way to lose IMEI, unless you have acess to the efs folder
I have tried that. I don't think its related to SIM slot as phone doesn't have any IMEI no. Yes the phone was rooted but I had not installed root explorer.. so i had no access to the root folder (hence efs). Only app which needed superuser access was some screenshot app which takes a screenshot when u shake the phone (I don't remember the name).
Remove lagfix and root apps and return it to the store or service centre is what i would do .

Hello I am from indonesia, and my I9003 also not detect the simcard. I haven't root my phone yet. Also I ve already tried update firmware but still not detect the simcard. Dont know why. Currently in samsung service center and they said probably sim card socket problems

Hey. Let us know any update about this.
I took it to samsung service center. Service engineer there was saying I must have tried updating my phone even after my denial. He said phone files are deleted. They will let me know tomorrow. They might have to change the motherboard of the phone.
Is that the only solution when phone files get deleted?

Replacing a motherboard seems a bit extreme to me, but when your BIOS gets corrupted on a PC they often just swap out the BIOS chip, so maybe it is equivalent.
Either way, what do you care as long as they fix it?
True.
Update: They changed whole motherboard of the phone and now I have 12 GB phone memory instead of original 4 GB. Nice

Wow that's nice!
Since your phone was only 2 days old when this problem occured, you were entitled to a new phone... Your phone would be classified as DOA and you would get a certificate which entitles you to a replacement. Hey but you got nothing to complain about as you got 12gb! Seems like you got the 16gb version.
Well a similar thing happened to me, I gave the service centre my phone to reflash it and they screwed up somehow and my IMEI was 0! So i'm getting a replacement for it tomorrow.
Hope I get the 16gb new phone too!

[Q] Please Help - Galaxy Note suddenly show "Emergency Calls Only"

Quick background:
- I have an International version, sourced from Latin America
- I have rooted the phone but NOT custom ROM
- I have Straight Talk service
The phone was just working fine for almost 1 month, can receive call, SMS, etc. Just today, I shutdown the phone and took out the microSD card and SIM.
I copied some files to the microSD card using a reader and left the phone with the SIM and battery out for about 30 minutes.
I put the microSD, SIM and battery and rebooted the phone. Suddenly, I got Emergency Calls only!
I have tried to "fix" it but to no avail:
1). Looking at the 3 PIN in the SIM slot, they are all INTACT, nothing bend or broken or lopse
2). The SIM card works - tested it in another 2 different phone and can make calls, etc.
3). I did CWM recovery to a backup from 1 day ago (when the phone still works)
Anyone have this experiences or my phone just DEAD?
weird...
try do the hard reset (try not to restore anything yet), if still doesn't change anything... flash new radio (LC1)
I disassembled my Note using the instructions from here to check if any of the 6 (SIX) SIM Card connector is bent and it is NOT.
I am putting it back together now and will do factory reset (this is what you meant by "hard reset", right?). I will post back with updates/
PS: this is INDEED weird. The phone works OK, Wifi works, sound works, screen works, microSD card is readable, everything works EXCEPT the GSM connection! And I didn't even mess aroud with the custom ROM/kernel/radio!
did u test other sim card on that phone yet?

I don't have an extra SIM card. What I did was take out the Straight Talk (ST) SIM card from my Note and put it in another unlocked GSM phone (Nokia N73). The Nokia N73 works with the ST SIM.
I just did a "Factory Reset" and still the same thing.
Before I try the radio flash, what will this "software" do to the Note modem? I am just curious how it will fix it.
BTW, my Baseband vesion is "BKK1", and I don't see the radio for this baseband in the link you provided. Which one should I use?
PDA: N7000UBKK2
PHONE: N7000UBKK1
CSC: N7000UWHKK2
flashing the radio doesn't effect your rom... try them.
try to borrow your neighbor sim card first before flash new radio.

Try to clean the Sim slot.
Yes, I tried cleaning the SIM slot. I have been very careful with my Note since day 1.
Someone mentioned that they have the same problem and was able to fix it by flashing STOCK ROM back.
I searched in the development section and could not find ROM for my phone (N7000UBKK1). Do you have any idea where I can get this from?
Well, looks like my phone is toast. I have tried the following:
1). Wipe data, cache, Dalvik and restore to CWR backup --> NO GO
2). Do a "factory reset" --> NO GO
3). Install stock firmware using Odin --> NO GO
NOTE: had to search for stock firmware on the Internet since it is NOT available in XDA
The only thing I haven't tried is flashing the modem firmware, but this is NOT available anywhere in XDA either.
The ST SIM card works because I tried this on two other GSM phone. Only the Note show "Emergency Call Only" message.
So now I have a $600 media player that I can't event sell. I guess serves me right for buying an International version with ZERO warranty and just happen that there is NO modem firmware for my phone.

Anyhow,
I found out the solution to this problem by accident, and there doesn`t appear to be a solution anywhere else on the internet. Turn off your phone and restart it. As soon as you are able to do so, open up setting, or any other app. When your phone goes into cool down mode, hold down the home button. A screen will come back asking you to select an app. Select whatever you opened prior to cool down mode (If you need to get into settings press the search button and search for settings after your out of CDM). You then need to do two things. Go to Running services (Settings>Applications>Running services), find detect battery service, touch it and stop it. To the best of my knowledge, it doesn`t do anything to your phone, other than activate cool down mode. Then go to manage applications (Settings>Applications>Manage applications) press your menu button and select filter> all applications. Find Battery protect, click on it, and select force stop. This allows your phone to get reception. You will have to do this every time your phone starts up, but it isn`t too much of a hassel for a truely excelent phone. The Cool down mode problem is definitly a software fault.

HELP!!
I have also had this same problem. My phone is STOCK I have not touched it. got the phone on last Monday working fine until the battery level ran right down yesterday, then I got message to "insert sim card!", ever since re-starting the phone I no longer can make calls!. I had no intension of rooting or messing with this phone and decided to wait until official ICS, but now what do I do?, is this a common problem?.
Tried previous instruction on this post, but unable to find any battery service running on the device.
Please help!!
I now also have this issue after updating to the latest firmware via Kies.
UPDATE: I got mine checked and it looks like the replacement unit I got had its SIM card broken. Dodgy eBay seller.
Just fyi, never insert MicroSim card adaptor in Galaxy Note. Mine works now after spending $100. Jeez
FYI, I tried all of the suggested solutions in this thread and I still have problem. So I returned the Note and got the AT&T version... At least now I got US Warranty
Same thing just happened to my phone. Rogers Galaxy note II.
Tried bunch of different SIM cards, none work.
Got the SIM reader app, phone reads SIM just fine. Data connection also works, but refuses to make voice calls "emergency only".
So pissed, wanna throw this phone against the wall.
Did anyone find a solid solution? Mine did this today, Stock never been rooted or anything! Any ideas?

[Q] Unable to make calls. How to solve?

Hi,
I have a strange problem. I am unable to make calls from my P990. If i try to make calls with UMTS active my phone does nothing. It is unable to call or get called from anybody. SMS do NOT work most of the time.
In GSM mode i can send and receive SMS messages and receive calls. But i can not make a call. It rings but when the called person answers the call my phone just ends it.
I think this problem can not be ROM based, because i switched from multiple CM10 nightlys to the leaked ICS by tonyp and harsh a few days ago and the problem is still there. While i changed the rom i did every wipe i could find, cache, davlic cache, internal sd and factory reset and fixed permissions as well.
Before switching to the leaked ICS rom i tried different (at least five) basebands to overcome the in call audio bug (loud strange noise on the called persons side) which worked for a few days, but then started to develop this problem. With the leaked ICS rom i tried both the P990_V28E_00_CP.fls and P990_V28G_00_CP.fls from tonyp's download site.
Can anyone think of a way to solve this really annoying problem?
If you need more informaion, like log files, build numbers, etc. please let me know what exactly and i will try to provide them to you.
Thank you for your help.

I tried this today, same problem here.
Something i forgot to mention is that when i try to call somebody and it does not connect i have to force quit the connection to the mobile network to end the call attempt from the phone. So i have to either switch in to airplane mode, deactivate the mobile network or switch from gsm to umts or the other way around.
If i do not do this the phone will try to place the call as long as possible with no result.
Do you think i should try and go to stock froyo and see if the problem persists?
u can try to nvflash the stock rom.it'll be clean then.
i-ve had the similar problem with leak ics rom.
my sim was over 10 years old and after changing the card problem was solved.
my telecom gaved me newer one with the same number.

I flashed the stock (2.3.4) rom (kdz version) with AIO-P990-ToolKit_v1.1-fixed which uses the official LG flash tool after making sure to have the gingerbread partition layout.
So now i have an old system V20Q_00.kdz with Baseband version 1035.21_20110725 but i am still unable to make any calls.
I will try to match baseband and ril next, but if this does not work i have no idea what else to try.
Anyone else?
Thanks.
OK, didn't work either.
Next try is the rom and the baseband from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504280.
ROM: Gueste2X "GoodBye" v2.0R
Baseband: v20l, 1035.21_20110725
Sms work without any problems, but the main problem remains. Calls, last about 3 seconds. Regardless wether the called person answers the call or not.
Calls to me are working perfect. Checked my APN settings and they are find to.
Is there any logfile i should provide to help track this problem down?
Any hints, suggestions ?
Thank you.

Well now it becomes really strange.
I tried a different sim card a few days ago. Same problem. Unable to call anybody. Today i tried it with yet another sim card. Calls worked perfect.
The only difference between the sim cards is the following. My original sim card is from bob (virtual provider from A1) and the first sim which did not work is from A1. So technically they are from the same provider. The one which worked is from a different provider (telering).
What adds to my confusion is the fact, that my sim card works perfectly in another P990 without any problem.
So somehow the combination of my P990 and sim cards from A1 and its virtual provider bob do not work. They send me a new sim card during the next week. If it works i'm happy and can finally make calls again.
If not i will change provider. :crying:

Wow. This worked. Thank you so much.
With smartflash i activated the option to Erase CAL data and reset my IMEI back to my original one.
Now all my call issues are gone. I hope it stays this way.

weird problem + need some help

I don't know if any one of you have encountered this before but here's what happened
I installed a new rom and my network lock came back
so I installed galaxys_unlock + busy box to unlock my phone again.
the phone gets unlocked and signal does seemingly work.
now here's the problem.
my sim card + plan can go on internet. but for some reason when I try to go on the internet it doesn't work.
I clicked on mobile network on my phone and what shows up was this message of "insert SIM card to access network service"
which really confuses me because I can actually make phone calls.
If anyone has any solutions please let me know. I'll be more than happy to try it.
Is it even normal for my n7000 to lag so much and have so many problems? I feel like I spend more time trying to fix it than actually enjoying it.
1 Try restock to see if problem from rom side or hardware
2 Reinstall new rom, make sure file downloaded match md5 (might be corrupt dl) and follow instructions
3 Update latest proven stable kernel for that rom
4 If else fail try diff rom or restock
Good luck

What does restocking mean???
Restock = basically back to original official stock firmware of the rom (non moded ics/jb based).
Also good idea to state your rom that you use, carrier etc, hopefully other user of that same rom can guide you?
I think you need to put the settings for internet access back in

i9305 no mobile signal..what else can i try ?

I Have had this i9305 now without mobile signal, with a vodaphone it did used to show signal but in all cases it always says 'no mobile networks' or 'not registered on network' i have tried with every sim i can think of... it was suggested to flash a stock rom which i did..this made no difference, i then tried installing CM11 and followed the guide to the letter.
I know this phone is not blacklisted as i checked with the imei, i have tried flashing different modems but to be honest im not sure what i am flashing to it..i have tried three different ones now starting with XX as i am in uk...i really dont know if i have missed something or doing something drastically wrong..i have read and read and usualy i would have had this resolved by now...can anyone please help me as i want to give this handset to my girlfriend for a present very soon so we can keep in touch..i am at my wits end with it:crying:
Thanks
Try an emergency restore through Samsung Kies - this should eliminate any software related problem. Sounds to be a hardware problem though so get Triangleaway going and send it for repair if that doesn't work.
Flash 4.1.2, then enable and disable the LTE-only mode hack in the hidden service menu (the *#2263# one, not *#*#4636#*#*). (If you have root, you can also access that menu in 4.3 or even the 4.4.2 port, but it's a bit more involved.)

it won't let me do that as it doesn't list the phone as needing an emergency recovery. I flashed a stock rom and the signal is showing but it keeps saying not registered on network.. if I do a search it finds providers but when I opt for the provider of the sim it just perpetually spins at registering on network.

when you say 4.1.2 which rom.. A stock one or a custom.. could you point me please ?.. The stock rom I have flashed is 4.1.3 I didn't flash a radio after as being stock it would be there already ??
Have just followed a guide to root this unit, upon installing root checker it says this device does not have proper root, Odin reports that everything went ok and i get the red pirate android..when the phone boots a pop up comes up saying unfortunatley SU has stopped working... not sure whether KNOX is stopping this ?
no network.
Hellow to you all.
I have got a problem in my s3 LTE.
After installed several rooms my lte not register in WCDMA network.
The mobile phone was from a french network. Bouygues and was unlocked in portugal.
i have got many problems with this phone but i like it very mutch.
the problem that bothers me the most is that i only make and receive calls with full network.
The WCDMA was not working but i allready fix it. Now when i turn to wcdma only it says not register in networck.

please start your own thread as it is not relevant to mine.
Someone's suggested this phone is barred.. I have run a check which says it's not blocked but it's been suggested that this is unreliable...I have bars showing but just never registered on network.
Does your IMEI reported in *#06# match the one printed under the battery?
