[Q] Galaxy S, sim card doesn't work after flashing rom

Hi everybody,
yesterday I flashed my phone with the original rom it was shipped and now the sim card does not work. The phone was network locked and I'm afraid that now it does not recognize any rom because of this.
I tried to do the procedure of simlock by rooting the phone but no codes appear after I launch sgux in the file.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

it could well be that your sim is dead if you left it in the phone while flashing. happened to me and it was quite weird, i could make and receive calls and messages, but 3g was dead. the guys at the 3 shop were quite amused as they have not seen anything like it before. anyway, try the sim in another phone, see if that works. ultimately flash to an unbranded rom and try a different sim on your phone.

Hi... I need some help please...
im a noob, and i have the same problem...
i have a samsung galaxy s i9000b factory with eclair

please argor, if you found how to solve this, contact me...

You say you have the original shipped rom .
If thats the case just flash that back if it truly is the original shipped rom .
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Darky rom problems as usual ask the chief suspect .Its probable you did not flash correct CSC file for your network .

hi, thanks for the reply.

i didnt have any original rom, and, i just tried put in sim from other provider and does not recognise either... i am so afraid that it could be a hardware problem...

[Q] network problem

xperia z1 C6903 >>it was working verry well after i flashed (C6903 14.1.G.1.518 Central Europe 1276-4314_R2A)it doesn't get any network signal just x ,i tried many FTF's branded and unbranded and still have the same X on my network signal !!!!!!!

Repair via PC Companion and go back to stock where everything was fine. If even this not help, try different SIM card. Then if the problem persist go via warranty.

thanks

IMEI but No Signal, please help!

Hello
I'm new here and I don't know what can I do to fix my phone, please help!
I have a Z1 C6903 from HK and suddenly during a phone call my phone lost signal and now it can't connect to my carrier network.
I tried a factory reset, upgrading with SUS and flashing original HK ftf but still have the issue.
I also tried flashing different ftf files (.290 , .257 , .534(NUT) , .531 , .681 and .757), sometimes I lost my IMEI but I figured out how to recover it, however, I recovered my IMEI but I still have no signal at all.
Could it be physical damage on my phone?
I hope I can fix it with software.
Any ideas?
I don't know what else can I do
Thank you!

you tried many ways, but did you try another sim card, lol?

Lol, yes I tried another sim card and it doesn't work, I also tried my sim card in other phones and works as a charm!
I noticed that this happened to other people and they fix it with SUS or flashing other ftf, I guess I'm not that lucky
Thanks!

After downgrade via flashtool did you try OTA update? Sometimes it's lose imei when flash older firmware, but after OTA update imei will restore. Hope it can help

Did You try to manually flash each ROM following the release versions, from the oldest to the newest without skipping any build number (else You won't get signal and IMEI)?

That's not needed and the OP says he does have IMEI so that's not the problem anyway

I flashed stock ftf, I'm not flashing a custom ROM.
Do you mean to flash .518, then 5.34 then .257 then .290 and so on to .757?
Thank!

Yes, I do have IMEI but I don't have signal, it's weird!

I had this problem with my old galaxy note 2
The radio chip most likely broken.
Contact sony for warranty if any left!
Sent from my C6906 using XDA Free mobile app

When I insert my sim it shows my a message that says "SIM card could not be read".
Could the problem be the sim card reader ??
Thanks!

Hi, I don't think is the radio chip, because I can see my carrier signal using the app Network Signal Info.
And it seems thta is not SIM locked, no X on the left. I don't know what can be the issue

Sorry to dig up this, but have you figured that out?
Were you to get signal again????
If so, what did you do?

hey did you figure it out? i am having the same problem! though it occured after flashing a custom rom. i noticed lost imei but then i recoverd it. now i have tried almost every ftf and even SUS. imei appears but shows no sim card inserted

[Q] Lost network & relocked BL?

Hello,
I've a weird problem with my Xperia SP. Today i wanted to get back to rom based on stock rom to get miracast feature.
I downloaded newest existenz rom and williams kernel for stock based roms. Installation went fine system booted ok and everything worked fine. After some time phone turned off and didn't wanted to start. Only flashmode worked. I've decided to download stock .205 CE1 rom and flash it.
It booted up, sim card was recognized(had to write PIN). After that network was not found. Signal with red "X". I've tried to manually register to network but i could not.
Next thing is that after flashing stock rom fastboot mode stopped working. Service menu shows that Bootloader can not be unlocked even that it was unlocked before and flashtool(BLU option) shows that it is still unlocked. Flashtool also shows Bootloader: NOT_ROOTABLE.
I have actually no idea what have happend. Now i'm installing stock rom using Sony PC Companion but i think this wont help for network problem.
My main network is PLUS GSM(Poland network).
Could sim card die? It is old type card (almost 10 years) and i had to cut it manually to fit micro sim for the phone.

Use flashtool to flash stock firmware by ftf file. Here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311964
Use an older one and if that does not work, try one or two more. Hopefully, that will help. Best of luck!

Does it matter which country is it for? I can try some of them but i think that won't help. I've checked other sim card and it was recognized but didn't even ask me for pin. Weird Oo.
If nothing helps i will just flash stock firmware with SEUS and let sony service take care of it, hopefully. Phone still has guarantee.

Regions perhaps. But the thing that does not make sense it that that why did it work before and not now? It should work. Anyway, my SIM was mini too. I, too, had to cut it. It works. Or possibly contact your service provider maybe something is wrong with the SIM. They might have have locked it or something?

If none sim card works on phone then it is IMEI problem or phone itself somehow. I'm trying to flash other roms now. Hopefully it will help if not then sending to service.

I've reflashed stock rom using SEUS and sended phone to sony service. Hopefully they can help. Be careful with Williams Kernel for stock roms. This may be a common bug.

For anyone who had the same problem. Sony exchanged my whole phone with information that mainboard was broken. They said that phone could not be fixed.
Good luck
PS. Topic can be closed i think.

then it must be a hardware problem the best thing you can do is get your phone at a sony verified repair store [another thing you could possibly do is a factory reset but it is not recommended since it will delete your phone's data]
