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

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??

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
HELP THZ
i have found a solution, set the date 2 months before and reboot. i can make call

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?
Hello,
I have problem with SIM card on my phone. I'm using Temasek's CM 10.1, Kowalski kernel, and V20I-EUR-XX baseband. When phone boots, I normally input my PIN, but it doesn't connect to network, I have to go to Mobile networks and Choose operator automatically, then it connects. I can call and send messages normally, but when the call hangs (me or the other side) it says SIM card error (something like that). Also I can't save APN. In APN settings there is nothing, and when I create APN manually, I input everything and press save, but it doesn't stay, APN's remain empty. I use micro-SIM with adapter, because my operator couldn't get me normal SIM at a time. I'm on Croatian provider VIP. Everything normally worked with micro-SIM from Tele-2 provider (although on CM 10, and CM 7, didn't test it on CM 10.1).
Is it related to my SIM card or SW (ROM or baseband)?

Not sure if you read my post, but I think we are having the same issue regarding the APN, etc.
Not been able to solve mine yet, perhaps together we can put out enough info that someone here can offer a solution? I haven't changed the baseband or kernel on their own, only went from stock 2.3.3, to CM10.1, then to CM7.2.
Are you able to remove the SIM PIN? If you remove the SIM PIN from security, are you able to save APN?
Does your phone access data with the native SIM card the phone was originally locked to?

It seems that PIN is already disabled in Settings-Security-SIM card lock settings :silly:
I called my old operator and they told me my phone was sold locked, and new operator told me they can't help because I didn't buy the phone from them. But then how it works now for calls and messages?
I don't have any other SIM with me so I can't test it with my phone. You say going back to CM7 didn't help? I guess I shouldn't try that then.
Maybe flashing stock ICS would? Any other suggestions?

I haven't tried stock ICS yet; maybe it would? I will try that tonight.
Mine shows the SIM PIN on, when I try to change it it asks for my old code, which I don't have of course, so I can't remove the security. Been hoping that someone else would have had experience or knowledge of what would cause the problem and have a solution or suggestion to try. The closest I came was on a different forum about a Sony Ericsson phone, but the rooting and flashing procedures are so much different I couldn't see a solution in it, though they suggested flashing the baseband iirc.
HMMMM, now that I read your reply, I can't say with 100% certainty that the phone was unlocked before I rooted and flashed CM10.1.....I had thought it was but perhaps it wasn't, and we are having a more similar issue than I thought. So the glitch, perhaps, is that it was not unlocked, the custom ROM somehow "half" unlocked it, and here we are stuck.
Okay, my only thought then is to take it back to stock everything, the most up to date I can find, then unlock it with code, and see if I can change the APN at that point. If so, I will root it, use My Back Up Root to save settings including APN (just in case so at least I can restore it that way if I can't do it manually, after)flash CM10.1 again or another fabulous custom ROM which is what I really wanted in the first place
I will try that tonight, and post you the results. Let me know if you have any (better) suggestions as well, I'm up to try almost anything at this point. Was hoping to upgrade to this for my daily phone as I'm limping along with a Acer Liquid MT that has seen better days
If anyone has a link to quickly point me towards the latest stock ROM etc. and wants to post here, I would be much obliged Might save this noob a few hours scratching his head to find what is most certainly in front of my nose already, but I digress...
Cheers
New baseband
I just flashed V30A baseband, and it didn't help. We can cross that from the list.
Well colour me confused...and happy?
I just today picked this project up again, about to attempt a different fix, again...*sigh.
Lo and behold, i insert my sim and power on the phone, and it asks me for network sim unlock.....odd because I'd used the phone with this sim before, through all my other testing, flashed different roms, etc. etc. In fact, I've used the phone on this very package, I know because there are sms messages on the phone from using it. Battery pull, remove sim and check, yup sure enough, old messages there. Hmmm...
Insert sim, reboot, asks for unlock code again. Well, what have I got to lose at this point right? As I said before, I THOUGHT I had unlocked the phone before starting this whole debacle, but wasn't 100% certain about it. Searched my email for the code since I always save them, couldn't find it. Well, in for a penny, in for a pound I suppose. Bought a new unlock code, waited for it to arrive. Input new unlock code, unlock successful!!
Reboot phone....waiting for service....(this seems like forever!!! In reality, less that 60 seconds.) Alas, I have service. And now, just to tempt fate, Apps->settings->wireless & networks->more->mobile networks->access point names..........:fingers-crossed:
I can hardly believe my eyes, there it be, Rogers Internet apn selected. It even auto-detected the damn thing!!
I can offer no further insight, I don't believe I physically did anything to arrive at this remedy. But there you go, for my part at least it's solved.
I have a Samsung i9000T that I recently bought from a lady who said she forgot her password to it so she couldn't unlock it. So I bought it and tried factory resetting it so I could sell it to a friend of mine who wants to upgrade from an iPhone 3G. Well factory resetting did nothing, I did some digging and found out that it's a common problem for i9000's to have a csc file corruption. So I decided to flash, via odin, a stock firmware to the device. The firmware I decided on was a UK firmware because I couldn't find an american firmware for it. The flash was successful and I was able to boot the phone no problem. A weird thing was that all of the lady's data was still on the phone, so I contacted her and told her I could backup all of her pics and give them to her, which she happily said yes to. After that, I rooted the phone and installed cwm and then flashed Slim rom android 4.2.1 to the device. I then put a backup sim of mine in the phone and tested the phone. The problem I am having is I don't get any signal on the phone what so ever. I have all the ATT apn's on the phone and they look to be correct.
My question is, having flashed a UK firmware before anything somehow messed up the ability to connect to ATT here in the USA? And what course of action should I take to correct the issue with no signal? My friend is in the military and is being mobilized on the 1st of march so I would like to have a working phone for him before then as I will not see him for some time after.
Any help will be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Just a question, has she ever reported it stolen? Has the IMEI number been blocked?
Find out the IMEI number and contact the original Network Supplier that the phone was used on and as them to check this. They'd be able to tell you if there are any issues.
Not trying to worry you but it happened to me. I had to return the phone.
I know the imei, but I don't know the original carrier for the phone... I assume it was ATT because that is the dominant carrier in my area. I'll get in touch with the lady I bought it from and see for sure.
On another note, I've tried testing the internal antenna by inserting a wire into the external port, but still no signal.
I'm going to try completely starting over and see how it goes this time.
Ok, so this thread can be closed now. I've solved the problem.. and feel like such a noob for some reason I was kinda spot on with what i thought was wrong but I had such a hard time finding files to fix it... untill i found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494493
AMAZING guide. Fixed my problem right up. Running 3G here in Texas on ATT. My friend will be so happy that he gets to take an android back over-seas with him.
Thanks to all of those who helped, I greatly appreciate it.
Hello. First of all, I searched the threads before posting to no avail. So if I'm being repetitive I apologize. But here's the problem. I have a t mobile galaxy note 5. Unlocked. It's rooted. Running an arter97 kernel, and Jovys Darkstalker kernel mod. Everything is running smoothly and has been for months. Recently the only problem is my signal. 90% of the time it is saying searching. When I make a call it says not registered on a network. This is strange because I have done nothing to cause this change. No new roms, mods, updates, nothing and it's been working fine all this time. I know it is not location related because it was working 100% fine from day one until now. I tried *#06# to see if my imei was null, it is not.
I let the phone search, and then choose an operator, that works temporarily giving me signal, but eventually goes back to, and stays searching. I tried to pull up the service menu using *#*#4636#*#* to reset the radio, but that number is not pulling up the menu. I was told I may have a bad efs, but I never created a backup because until now I never had this problem and didn't know efs existed . I don't know what my next step should be. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!
Sn: if there is already a solution to this problem on this forum send me a link please!
Try using the Shortcut Master (Lite) to pull up the service menu.
I've also got same issue.
My phone is n920c. I've spent all day trying fix this issue by new rom, but I didn't find solution yet.
Kind Regards,
Marcin

Where did you buy your phone? Why don't you check to see if it's blacklisted first (maybe it took a little while to get listed). Never ceases to amaze me the number of people selling stolen/balance owing phones, or the number of people buying them, for that matter:
http://www.t-mobile.com/VERIFYIMEI.ASPX
Very true. I think i may have solved the problem though. My phone was bought outright through tmobile. I try not to by second hand phones for that exact reason.
I think i have may have found my the solution. For me it was a sim card related issue. Apparently my sim card was exhausted, or had expired. This is why my phone kept dropping me from the network and i had to keep reconnecting. Accordind to t mobile your sim expires 90 days of no use. This dodnt apply to me but whatever. Got a new sim, transfered the number, problem solved. Also something else that greatly boosetd my service. Take the case off. This was why i got the searching status in low service areas and only 2 bars of service in good reception areas. Crazy that in 2015 cases still affect service but it did greatly. So yea my fix was a new sim and take the case off. Very elementary. But i can say it was not root, kernel related thank god :good:
Hello, my S5 mini has the first problems 1 year after bought, sometimes there was the error not registered on network. I have sent it twice to the support, but it was returned with "no error".
Now warranty over i have the error not registered on network, and can not use it for telefoning. The IMEI was correct, i can receive the network, but i can not register to it. I have the last marshmallow update flashed over OTA.
in former times, i have to remove the sim and reinsert it, to get it work again, but now this does not work. The simcard ist changed from the provider, and i bouhgt another simcard from another networkk, to test it.
Can i fix this problem?

Sam here, call me cynical but happened 6 months after phone ran out of warranty. Done all the basics, diff SIM from different provider reset phone, even re-flashed phone and no joy, tried all the modem software going and phone will only work on 2G. Samsung support said take it to repairers hmmm wonder what that's going to cost. New phone, New manufacturer I think. This is 2nd Samsung ive had issues with
I've only just got my first Android phone from a mate after obnoxiously using iPhones for years+, an S5 Mini that lags and ****s itself at every moment. I've now got a gangsaf little unit learning anything I can about this phone and after all my errors, not once have I seen this.
Just for relevancy, I have a G800Y model but I'm using one of the two kernels I could find that looked decent which the devs have listed under G800F and as far as I can tell or what I've read, there's no real difference other than a difference between the LTE bands they can access (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). If it would be so much as to ask what exactly is the software specifications of both of your devices? By this I mean:
- What ROM are you running; [Stock] or [Custom]?
- Have you rooted your device?
- Have you tried finding your device's most recent stock modem software?
- Did anything lead to this or is there anything you believe could have contributed to the occurence of such a problem?
- What carrier are you with in what location? If you do not wish to say for whatever reason, have you tried a search for devices with similar problems and a possible resolution method?
