[Q] S i9000 unable to connect to network

Hi, I'm hoping you can help. Total noob so please bear with me.
I got a Si9000, it says it is unlocked.
When putting in sim card I got data network not available error.
Installed S1_Odin_20100512.pit
In PDA option I put in code_i9000XXJVS_CL565837_REV03_USER_LOW_SHIP.tar
For phone option I put in modem_i9000XXJVS_REV_00_CL1059471.tar
For CSC option I put in GT-i9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVS.tar
After I was told to type in *2767*3855# to reset phone.
Phone has been updated to 2.3.5, but now getting not able to connect to network error. It says mobile network unavailable. Any Ideas?
Thanks

have you checked that you have the correct settings for the network you want to use and also check that you have a valid IMEI number

Thanks for replying
Yes, the phone is shows the network, but when you try to select it, it says unable to connect.
I just checked there, and the IMEI number is valid

The files are in the right place, so nothing wrong there. Is wifi working?

Yep, but wifi is the only thing thats working. No data or mobile network, no GPRS either

Which network are you with and what settings do you have in APN ?
Would recommend ...flashing Rom and Re-Rooting*

I am wondering if it's just something in the connection settings. When I went to Japan last year I had to fiddle with something in the settings before I could pick up signals. It was in mobile networks. I think you can select cdma or something like that.

Im with Go Conquer in Ireland, actually brought the phone to a shop to be unlocked, as it was Vodafone, but they said it already was unlocked. They have their settings up on their website so I have entered them.
I'm going to try putting it back to its original settings again, and rooting it again, do you think that might be it? Ill also try the cdma settings.
Thanks to you both

Follow my Guide below to flash Rom and then Root it
Why did you go to a shop to unlocked it ...theres apps on here free??

Did you manage to get it right again? I'm having the same issue as you do. I did a factory reset with cwm and now when I enter the sim card it doesnt connect to network or 3g. Wifi does work. I am on original rom 2.3.5 and I dont know what to do. I tried a other sim and that didnt work either. Please advice. Thank you.

Are you sure to have flashed ROM with proper CSC bandwidth for the region where you live?

Hi,
Thank you all for replying! For some unknown reason the phone works. I left it a day off and then I powered it up again and it worked. So I dont know how but thank you guys for replying!
Grtz,

No Signal problem

So, my Xperia Z has "no signal" error when i put my micro SIM card into its slot. Interesting is that when i turn the phone on it asks for a PIN, when i put the correct PIN in and confirm it has no signal at all... in the menu also appear "O2 Sim" apk after few seconds and my phone can even import contacts from SIM :laugh: ... well i am out of ideas.
Things i have tried:
Reinstall Android 4.4 via PC Companion
Downgrade to 4.3 via Flashtool
Downgrade to 4.2.2 via Flashtool
Reboot many times
Took SIM in and out many times + tried SIM in my second phone (XS) it worked normally...
I also tried SIM from different provider - same problem
Changed GSM to WCDMA only, ... (all options)
Add AP point
Find provider Auto/Manually - no service found
Checked if my phone is showing it's IMEI - yes it is
Checked if my phone isn't locked - no its unlocked
My phone is now BT locked, running Android 4.4 (10.5.A.0.230) non-rooted, at first i was thinking its a HW problem but well could it be if it recognizes the SIM card?
Last thing i am thinking about is to change my SIM to USIM, but i am not sure if it will help...
*Edit* I forgot to say everything execpt Network service (calls, sms, data) is working fine. *Edit*
*Edit2* After searching all over the google it seems like i am not alone... i have the same issue like this user https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdJ0DREwdEM " *Edit2*
*Edit3* I am adding some screenshots *Edit3*

Not working, check the video i posted before, phone can't find any service provider and i am not able to switch to manual... its reallly strange, i am trying to find some fix or something for about 4 hours + searching google, xda, youtube, ... and what i found? A lot of people with the same issue but no fix ...

After another X hours of looking for issue i found the reason - Antenna Board is probably faulty, i have found the same issue at some iPhone forum when the user had no signal (same as me) and fixed it by changing this little board located at the bottom of phone. But anyway if you know it won't help let me know I will post a reply when new AB will arrive and if change helped.

I don't think there is any issue with the base band
you flashed different builds also
Can be a hardware issue, suggest you to go to a service center

Well i can't go to service center because i lost my warranty... any other solution how to fix it? btw where has Xperia Z located Antenna for GSM ? If it is HW issue like damaged Antenna i can fix it with buying new one but i really need someone to tell me which part of the phone can make this issue to buy the correct new part not whole new phone ...

Does not mean that the antenna is broken, can be a loose contact also
You are getting the pin prompt because the sim reader is working properly
it is unable to register to network because of antenna issue, better you show it at a mobile shop than doing self diagnosis

[Q] Sony Xperia Z is stuck in 2G-EDGE

Hello everyone! I'd like to know if any of you know why my Sony Xperia Z C6603 does not detect or does not want to connect to 4G LTE or networks above 2G-EDGE technology. It detects my home network as 2G but the rest it detects them as 4G or 3G, but because of my SIM card I can't switch to any of them of course :/ I've already flashed my phone with no positive outcome... The problem still persists. What can I possibly do?
Thank you all so much in advance for your help! Let me know if anything from my phone (like IMEI or other stuff) is needed to help fix this issue ^^

Well I did try another SIM, but from my same carrier. I tested that Sunday when I took my phone to my carrier's offices to check if the problem was theirs. They put my SIM card in another phone and it worked on the other phone, while they put a test SIM card on my phone and it didn't work :/

I'll be attempting a bootloader unlock and a complete flash using Sony's EMMA with my phone and see if that solves the issue... I'd greatly appreciate any help I can get, I really don't know what else I can do.

Bootloader unlock is not necessary to flash stock firmware.
Just download firmware ftf file and flash it using flashtool

Network mode is LTE yes, and even so, my phone should be able to connect to at least HSPA but it doesn't go through that even :/

Ok... Just flashed with EMMA. Nothing, it's still the same. I did try another SIM card that didn't have LTE capability from another carrier and it did connect through HSPA+ and 3G, but with my SIM card it detects my home network as 2G, it should be letting me connect through HSPA like with my last Sony Ericsson phone, but nothing :/

there seems some problem with radio.

Go to service tests > Antenna RX diversity > network mode WCDMA > set Both RX antennas
if that does not work then try relocking bootloader if you have the DRM Keys and TA partition backup

cellular data not working

I updated my phone from miui 9 to miui 10beta....after few days cellular data is not working...signals are not shown....but when I connect to a WiFi network... cellular signals are shown.....but still I can't make calls...can anyone help me... please..

Try reinserting sim/restarting your device.
If possible try using different Carrier sim to check if this issue persist on your current network carrier or it is bug with miui.
Try changing apn for mobile data.
Try changing preferred network.
Are facing this issue in all areas or it is for specific area? If you are not getting network anywhere then it could be possibly sim card issue or miui beta ROM has network bug with update that you are using.
Also check if IMEI number is showing or not?
