Coming out of "Airplane mode" seems to lock/disable my SIM card, causing "Emergency calls only" to be displayed. I do not even get the option of entering my PIN so the only way around it is a reboot. Anyone else experience this? Not having to do a hard-reset would be preferable
(Froyo FRG83)
Me too, I fly a lot and I thought maybe my sim card was loose. I usually have to pull the battery and reinsert the sim card to get it to work again. Annoying....
My N1 randomly loses the cellular network and I see the triangle with the exclamation mark in the notification area.
I am not sure it's relevant but my N1 (a refurb from HTC) does have a dodgy SIM card slot since I need to stuff a piece of paper on top of the SIM card in order for it to be registered. Still once that's done and the back is on, there is no problem.
Anyway I will look down at the phone and see that I have lost the network. If I go to Mobile Networks/Network Operators I get an error "Error Registering on Network" or words to that effect.
The only solution is for me to either switch to Flight Mode, switch back to online mode and redo the search. The various networks usually then appear and I can choose my home carrier. A reboot of the phone also works.
This suggests to me that it has nothing to do with the SIM slot and it must be some other issues. I am running an unrooted phone on 2.3.4.
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks
I'm not sure but I think it is probably related I would call htc and see if they can take a look at it cause for one they should not have given you a phone with a faulty sim card slot and it probably brought along some other problems.
Hi guys,
I'm having network connection problems I recently purchased my RAZR I, was informed it was unlocked,
however when I insert my 3 sim, I get the message " Cannot connect to network at this time, please try again later" !
The phone doesn't display any sim error messages, I've purchased a 16 digit unlock code, in case its locked,
but am unable to enter it into the phone as no error screens pop up, I've tried android codes which are
supposed to "call" the "enter code"scene, but without success.
I can't find a working code for the "engineer mode" either....
I've changed radio mode to "gsm only" (I'm in the UK)...
I've rebooted, factory reset....etc etc
Phone info screen states... Network unconnected
GPRS. off
I'm at a loss... How do I remove the "little red triangle", emergency calls only & connect to a network so I can use the phone.

Which software is installed?
Which provider do you try to use?
Is the sim card working in an other phone?
If you manually search for a network, do you get any choice?
Phone is running stock ROM ... Jelly bean.
I'm trying to use my Three Network sim which works fine in other phones.
I've manually searched networks... Results show 3, Vodophone, o2 & Orange... Selecting 3 brings up same "cannot connect at this time...." message.
I've checked APN settings, they're as they should be !
Thanks for quick response...

Which exact software is running? Please the full image string.
That would show for which country/continent the phone is setup. Maybe you also just need to call Three Network and ask if they see some error on their side.
Stats are as follows...
System version
91.2.29001.XT890.Retail.in.GB
Android
4.1.2
Kernel version
3.0.34-g261995f
[email protected]))
Build number
9.8.21-50_SMI-29.1359955748
As the phone won't register on the network, Three are unable to test the connection ! Plus my sim works in all my other phones.
The RAZR I is reading the sim as my contacts import to the phone, so I don't think the sim jacket is at fault either....
Hope this helps...

Oh ! I've also checked the IMEI number online & as far as I can tell its not blocked...
Come on guys any ideas.....

No idea now. It could be a broken phone or a broken sim. Maybe one metal contact on the SIM is broken, or something like that.
I've been in touch with Motorola, there answer is a factory reset.... I've tried a few sims and all are recognised ( the associated APN loads every time...) but still no network connection. I've also checked the antenna connections to ensure contact is being made....
Could this be a software issue? The phone is rooted, can I use ADB to alter IMEI ?
Thanks in advance...

Hi, I have a galaxy S4 active, it is original from AT&T but I was using it with tmobile, it is not rooted, today stopped detecting the SIM card, so I dialed *#9090# it shows the servicemode screen, it had a list of options and I accidentally press the first one which I do not know what was it for, the phone rebooted and now when I go into the servicemode screen it does not show any option, I do not know what I did to the phone, I connected to wifi and try to update the software but it shows the message "DM initialization is not ready. Check network or SIM card" please I need some help!!!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have the phone rooted with the SIM unlock. The phone will allow me to pop In a T-Mobile SIM card and search for network. But... When I pop in an at&t sim, the search for network function is greyed out and unable to be clicked to find the att network and connect. Any reason why a tmobile SIM works but a at&t SIM does not?
The AT&T sim card inserted can receive calls and texts, but it will not allow me to make a call or send a text back. It shows limited service and no signal.
Thanks in advance
happens to me too. what did you figure out?
