C6603 customized, unable to enter 'Service Info' screen - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Longtime lurker and modder looking for some help. Had my C6603 for over 2 years and hope to run it into the ground.
Recently chose to switch provider, requested unlock code from current provider and awaiting. However in the mean time I am trying to get my unlock code window open, attempted entering new sim and just get limited network with no code request. Tried to find out service status but when I open dialer and enter Service Info *# code upon completion the code disappears from dialer but nothing happens. Have tried 3 different ROMs at this point in an attempt to get it to appear with no success.
Current ROM info;
Android Version: 5.1.1
ParanoidAndroid Version: 5.1
Baseband Version: 9x15A-ACEFWMAZQ-30110089-64
Kernel Version: 3.4.0-aospal-gc8a8575
Current Provider: Orange UK
Hope this helps.

[Q] G1 not registering on any network

Hi,
I have a G1 which I bought in US and got it unlocked by T-Mobile before I moved to India. All functionalities of the phone works fine, except it is not registering on any network. It is able to find all the available networks, but it is not registering. I know that the sim card is fine as the same sim card works on a different phone that I have.
When I try to select the network using "Select automatically" option or by selecting my home network on found network list, I get the message "Unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later."
Could you please help me in getting this issue resolved. The following are the details of my phone:
Model Number: HTC Dream
Android version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: 2.22.23.02
Kernel version: 2.6.35.9-cyanogenmod
Mod version: CyanogenMod-6.1.0-DS
Build number: FRG83
I see the following status:
My phone number: unknown
Network: unknown
Service state: Out of service
Roaming: Not roaming
Mobile network state: Disconnected
I have also attached the results of logcat -b radio > radio.txt with this thread.
This phone was working fine in India with stock android V1.6. The issue started only after I started to root it by downgrading to V1.5. May be I am not correct with this finding.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ram.
Did you find a solution to that problem? I have the same problem except I was still on 1.6 when my G1 stopped working.

[Q] SIM Error on Simple Mobile, stumped...

Happy New Year folks.
I just ported my brother's AT&T number to a Simple Mobile account and I'm getting a SIM error notification icon on the top.
I don't get a window prompt of the SIM itself, I just recognize it from previous experiences.
Considered the following, but nothing worked:
- Manually adding the APN for Simple AND T-Mobile.
- Manually selecting another network operator.
- Tried reinserting the old AT&T SIM, the notification is gone of course, but I can't do anything that utilizes phone service because it's terminated.
- Searching around the rumors for a specific solution; found nothing relevant.
- Obtained an unlock code, but I can't access anything to input the code (even 2945#*925#, but I get mobile network not available),
- My IMEI is recognized by the Android OS, so I don't think I'm encountering any issues there.
Here's some info on the handset:
Baseband info: LG925AT-01-V10e-310-410-AUG-10-2011+0
Android Version: 2.3.7
Kernel: Version 2.6.35.7-cyanogenmod [email protected]) )
Mod Version: CyanogenMod-7-20121202-NIGHTLY-p925
Apologies if this has already been answered.
Any guidance would be infinitely appreciated.
FYI: Just made a back up and flashed with the latest barebone CM7 ROM.
No luck, same results.
Figured it out.
I flashed a stock ROM (rooted but I don't think it was relevant) and unlocked the phone from there via the dialer app.

unlocked HTC Desire C no signal but Data working

Hi everyone,
I have a desire C which was originally on the 3 mobile network, I unlocked it successfully to work with other sim cards and was using it on Orange for a few months.
I have also rooted the phone following the original nameless thread & installed the nameless ROM onto it. This works fine with the ORIGINAL 3 mobile sim card but not with any other sim card. AlI get is no service showing. I cannot make or receive calls, however data works fine (with or without wifi).
I have tried the following:
turning airplane mode on and off, also usin the *#*#4636#*#* (or whatever it is!) thing to get to the test menu and turn off radio and back on again.
Wiping to factory reset
Re-installing the rom from the phones recovery "install zip from SDcard" menu, - also installed the revolution 5en5e rom
IMEI Shows the original IMEI from the phone
If I go to my available networks list it shows me the EE (orange) network, o2 Network, Vodafone network & 3 Mobile network, but no matter which one I select it says your sim card does not allow connection to this network.
I've also tried to change the way it connects from auto to manual and vice versa, but each time it says unable to connect to this network at this time, please try again later.
I just cannot get it to give me signal unless its on the orignal sim & i'm sure the signal is worse than the stock rom.
I'm assuming it's a radio issue?? only assuming as I would have though I would have the error of invalid sim/network locked etc, but I don't know enough about it really.
So currently the phone sits with the following installed:
Android Version:
4.0.3
HTC Sense Version:
4.0
Software number:
ReVoluTion 5en5e Edition v1.0
HTC SDK API Level:
4.2.1
HTC Extension Version:
HTCExtension_403_1_GA_9
Kernal Version:
3.0.16-g51cada9

PREEMPT
Baseband Version:
10.11.98.09P_1.06.98.13M2
Build number:
2.00.401.2CL128321 release-keys
Browser Version:
WebKit/534.30
I hope someone can help & if you need more information please let me know!
Kind Regards,
Lee
Try unlocking your SIM again, but while on the new Rom?
Make them boys go loco!
Hi,
I don't get the option to unlock the phone as it accepts the sim, just gives me no signal. Before I unlocked the phone it used to say something along the lines of sim card not accepted, you then had the option to put the codes in to release it from its carrier.
regards,
lee
I had the same problem with my SIM card. Phone is unlocked but one day I see that I don't have any network signal.
So I snoop around trying my friends' SIM cards on my phone and they work.
Went to the office nearby and told them what happened. They said its a malfunctioning SIM card and change it for free.
Now i didn't notice whether I have data traffic working but it resolved my signal problem. Hope this helps.
I've tried 3 different sims on organge and o2 and have the same issue
I've called three mobile (original carrier) and they advise that there is no barring or anything on my profile.
I think I will try to reflash to factory and try again.....I cant think of any other way.

Flashed boot.img & installed the "untouched__rom_v2.0eu_dcplx1" from this site and it does the same thing!
Does anyone know what else i can do?? or have a three mobile rom I can try?
Lee
Ok, managed to speak with three Tech support again, turns out my profile is not ok.
My phones imei has been blocked by........wait for it.........o2!!!!!
they are speaking with the fraud team and will hear back this week. How bizarre.
I don't understand how another network can block my imei from being on other networks apart from the original one? if it's blocked it's blocked surely....
ah well, will wait for the call back and post up with the outcome.
Lee
Spoke to three today who advise the phone is not blacklisted like they originally stated as they have spoken with O2.
They say there is nothing on my profile to block it and it should work.
I don't know where to go on this now.
Can anyone help please?

Unlocking (with a Code)

I've tried various "tools" to unlock my phone (including GalaxSim, which seems to be most popular) and none seem to work.
I resorted to buying an unlock code from what seems to be a reputable website (based on recommendations and feedback from other sites), but even that is failing. The instructions that they gave me were simply as follows, used in conjunction with a code that was emailed to me.
> 1. Insert a non accepted SIM card into the phone & power on
> 2. You should get message "Network locked" or "Enter Network Code"
> 3. Enter the Network (may be labelled NCK) code XXXXXXXX
> 4. Your phone should unlock
I noted that the message at step 2 was slightly different "SIM network unlock PIN" and when I enter the code provided, the response that I got from my phone was "Network unlock request unsuccessful" ... I contact the company who provided the code and after checking that I followed the instructions and had provided the correct IMEI, they have apologised that they can't help me any further and are refunding the money. Perfect, but it's still locked
The only thing that I can think of, which may affect things is that my phone is rooted (details below)

Does anyone else have experience or can offer me some advice to resolve this and get my phone unlocked?
Massive appreciation for anyone who can help me........
[update]
On another thread, I read that if I roll back to 4.1.1 the menu trick will work ... but struggling to find a "how to" to help me do this. Needs to be a fairly straight forward guide as I am not the most technical in this area.

[Q] Unlocking + Signal Issues post Flash and IMEI fix

Hi All,
I've trawled through this forum for quite a while and haven't yet found any answers or similar cases to the issue I'm currently having. Here's a summary of where I am at the moment with my i9305 LTE:
- Got a i9305 locked to EE.
- When EE quoted £20+ and 10-20 days for unlock I started looking at altenatives.
- For one of the alternatives, I flashed to get root and I believe I lost my IMEI. I didn't have an efs backup and was unable to restore via stock flashing.
- Luckily, I had a screenshot of my settings so I re-wrote my IMEI using QPST.
- Decided to go for the legit unlock this time so called EE and paid for the unlock code.
- Pre-root, when I put in my unsupported SIM I would get a prompt for an unlock code, but that doesn't have anymore. While waiting for the EE code, I found that when I inserted the unsupported SIM, I would sometimes be able to connect in very specific locations (e.g. certain places outside the house). Wi-Fi works perfectly.
- When the unlock code came, I attempted to enter it by getting to the prompt using "#7465625*638*#". Although, when I enter the code here, it does not accept it (I have an unlock and an unfreeze code, neither work).
- I have trialed the SIM in various other phones and have had no problems with signal at all, the problems arise when I place the SIM in the i9305.
- I have tried changing the modem, so far no luck...
No idea how to go about fixing this... At the moment I can't use it as a phone.
Here is some more info:
Samsung GT-I9305
Nameless Rom 5.0.2
Baseband: I9305XXBLL3
Android Version: 5.0.2
- Should I keep trying different Modems?
- I've tried to verify whether phone is locked or unlocked, but *#7465625# doesn't work, do you know any other ways that I can diagnose sim lock status?
- Will different ROMs or kernels help?
Thanks for any help!
-- UPDATE --
Have flashed back to stock 4.1.1.
I attempted to sim unlock via the *#197328640# approach, but wasn't able to get it to work...
My current next hope is to try and restore my i9305 to the point where it asks for a code to unlock upon entering a new SIM again... Would really appreciate any help, Thanks!
I've still not been able to fix, but will update when I do in case it helps anyone else :good:
