Is this a hardware/software problem? how can I fix it?
Is there a good fast stable rom (2.3.4)?

Hello
Today I tried some new roms on my Galaxy S, I flashed this rom : (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1461781)
and then I wanted to go back to my previous rom so I used the Ultimate Kernel Cleaning Script (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166954) and installed back the [ROM]MIUI MintBerry Edition 2.1.20 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350763).
But when the rom loaded up the screen with text "sim network unlock pin" appeared and I am not able to make phone calls. Before this flashing process everything was working good, can you please help me to solve this?
I am really worried. Thank you
I tired Doc 11 and 12 and now i am on ICS333 1.1. I didnt find the face unlock option in these roms ? how i can Instal face unlock
I remember seeing it as an optional download in one of the roms as I was browsing. Have you tried searching at all?
face unlock as it is now is the dumbest thing I've seen on a phone.
Phone unlocked with 5 different friends of mine in a group of 8, when I tried it.
On ICS333:
System settings -> security -> screen lock -> face unlock
Jop, its included in ICS333 1.1, but it doesn't recognize my face.. so you always need the patternlock to unlock your phone. I can't recommend it.
Root, TWRP 3.0.2-3
Problem appeared on: SLICK-S427-ROW_by_SHENGE 6.0 rom
Problem:
notification icons on home screen top bar are gone
quick settings/notification pull down menu (the one with wifi, flashlight, airplane, etc.) on home screen cannot be accessed (neither by swiping down nor by using a Nova Launcher widget)
On the lock screen they both work. On a 5.0.2 rom (miui7_v6.5.26) they both work as well.
I have tried options, different launchers, TWRP factory reset, TWRP full wipe, TWRP format data and flashed several other top 6.0 roms - nothing helped. Even a full format and installing a 6.0 rom that I know worked before!
Cheers.
Same problem
I have exactly the same problem. Even the alarm wont go off because for some reason the notifications dont work. The problem happened when I tried to put in a second SIM and since then I can't get to fix it.
my solution
I probably should have posted this long ago, but forgot. Anyway, here's my issue:
it's the additional security PIN.
I have tried multiple unofficial ROMs for my phone. Some of them had the option of setting an additional security PIN (10+ characters) for situations like SIM card change (anti-theft measures built into the ROM). The problem is, when you later change the ROM to one without such an option, it will somehow "remember" (I guess the info is stored on a different partition or something) that it should ask for the security PIN upon changing SIM cards, but the current ROM lacks this functionality. This is why the phone acts so weird.
The solution for me was: flash a ROM that had this security PIN anti-theft option, enter it and disable it completely. Then you should be able to flash and enjoy whatever ROM you want.
Hope it helps.
EDIT: this could possibly also be achieved by installing an anti-theft apk that has this functionality, but I have not tried that.
Which ROM
Do you remember which ROM has the feature? Cause I cant seem to find one.
I don't quite remember, but most likely it was one of the AOSP LEMONADE family, a Lollipop.
Thank you very much sir, my problem finally got solved. For future reference, the ROM I used is this one: http://www.needrom.com/download/aosp-lemonade-v3/ although I' m sure many more will have the same anti-theft option.
Hey guys, basically I am facing an issue now, basically, I successfully rooted my note 9 which is on the android pie (using twrp and magisk)
And now I have this issue that every time I try to create a lock for the phone (i.e. fingerprint or anything else) And I input the password. Then it doesn't lock my phone, however, it doesn't let me register fingerprints as it says the pin I enter is wrong. And I had to reset it 5 times already.
Please help
