[Q]Is it sim card issue??help ! - Motorola Droid 4

I recently buy a motorola droid 4 from e-bay, the phone is on bad shape but its functional and clean esn... it was on stock jb but i am not able to get any sim card to read..

ehm, i have flash this patch but that is not the problem...
the phone do not recognize any sim that iv tried so far(no pin,no contacts,nothing!)
i have test the sim card reader and it has voltage seems to be operative but dose not give me any sim card
by the way do you know whats the difference Global unlocked droid 4 / and just droid 4? i guess that it dose not need the gsm patch?
thanks !
PS:sry i didnt have a notification on this post

maybe hardware failure, should see sim with or without patch

same results on any rom with/without patch

Try on Cyanogenmod with GSM Patch (if you are on GSM Zone) - if doesn't work - probably something with hardware

"This SIM Card is from an unknown source."

I updated the ROM to the most recent ICS leak and inserted my SIM card. When in either GSM or Global mode, the phone will respond with "This SIM card is from an unknown source." Is there any way to fix this? I'm on AT&T in the US.

This phone will not work on US GSM frequencies, only abroad.
Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk 2
I thought it was compatible with US GSM frequencies since its a quad-band radio. This website refers to the Radiocomm hack to use AT&T (see Android Community's article "Motorola Droid 4, Razr, and Bionic modded for AT&T and T-Mobile") and the resource on Droid-Forums implies that the Radiocomm hack isn't even necessary after upgrading to ICS ("Finally! GSM Droid 4 Works!"). Is there something I'm missing?
edit: I can't post links, so woops! You'll have to search for those things instead I guess.

I know what you talk about.
GSM is unlocked in ICS for abroad GSM carriers, but it's not working for US GSM. For US GSM you still need to go and use radiocomm patch.

I used Radiocomm to check my NV value and it matches what the patch would be setting. I'm still not able to use my AT&T SIM. Has anyone encountered this before?

Verizon is obviously blocking access to US GSM networks. This has been reported previously on the ICS leaks. You are out of luck for now unless someone figures out how to patch this.
But I got the same message with my australian sim...
I rooted, installed safestrap and then CM9 with the setting "telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice" set to "0" in the build.prop. After that I had much better GSM-reception and the message didn't show up anymore.
In build.prop there is the following string: ro.telephony.gsm-routes-us-smsc. Could that be the limiting factor? Maybe try change to 0?
That only affects sending of SMSs. If you're not in the US, and not using Verizon's SIM, yes you should set it to 0.
Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk
I haven't had any luck from modifying the build.prop file. Running logcat -b radio shows me that CDMA stuff is going on when I'm in CDMA mode (whodathunkit) and GSM is happening when I'm in GSM mode. Is there a guide on how to interface with the radio directly (or, well, through linux or adb) so that I can figure out what the radio is picking up? It might not be seeing the AT&T signal at all. If only I could see what AT+COPS=? returns.
Could someone post their build.prop for the latest leak? Mine was accidentally saved while deleting some line. I don't want to reboot the device for fear of some kind of mishap. If you like outside the US and have your GSM edits included, that would be greatly appreciated

Hi mate. Find"build prop editor" in play store, install and run the app and search for the string you want to change. Rest is easy.

Its a CDMA device you are free to use any compatible CDMA sim cards in it. You can't use gsm or 3g sim cards as this device does not have this technology. Is it CDMA network locked? Do you mean that it is carrier branded and can only run that service provider's sim from which you bought... if that is your case Google is your friend....

Hi there, first of all you should go to Settings> More networks> Mobile networks, then you hit on roaming and then you select "Always allow data roaming".
If by any chance that doesn't work, try to put the SIM card in another device to make sure it works. BTW how did you unlocked your bootloader? I've the same model as you and I'm having a hard time trying to find a way to unlock my bootloader

Make sure that you have a Moto X XT1060 by going into bootloader and scanning the barcode from there.
I am saying this because i had the same issue but when i entered in bootloader and scanned the barcode the model of my Moto X was XT1056 not 1060.

Hello guys !
Been searching around for a solution and got here. I have a Moto XT 1060 with locked bootloader and running 5.1. Can anybody help me unlock the bootloader and/or root the phone 'safely'?
So far ive found one method to root it but its unsafe and there is virtually no way to unlock the bootloader. Any solutions will be appreciated.
I am also from Karachi and can come to Sadar if required.

which software for duel sim

Hi all.
I've just flashed my n960f with o2 branded so I can use the wifi call feature.
My question is can I use the same software on my wifes duel sim version?
I don't think that is a good idea unless you want to brick your wife's device.

Why? Dual sim and single sim use the same firmware (i.e. there is no specific "dual sim" firmware).

I think the dual Sim variant uses a different device driver. As the 2nd slot is a hybrid microSD/SIM card slot.

Still the same firmware though, so it's likely just baked in to accommodate either one. The FD/S or FD all run the same F firmware.

Maybe... I am not 100% sure on this but I think the drivers maybe different as I don't think the Note 9 can support the use of 2 LTE/4G network connections at the same time.
Actually the Note 9 can support LTE/ 4G on both sims at the same time(see attachment). The note 8 didnt. Not sure if this is the first or if the S9 had it.
Not sure about firmware compatibility
