Hey All,
The title speaks for itself. My T-mobile sim card all of a sudden stopped registering with my VS980. I had this phone for a while now, but i barely used it because i cracked the screen when i first bought it. I recently fixed the screen, and went ahead and started my flashing process to try out which ROM would suit me best,
The issue happened when i flashed Cloudy G2 3.3 rom. I had no service at all, even after i used the correct APN settings. I figured i'd go to my back up and i'd have service, but still no service even with a stock back up rom.
How can i fix this??
Please someone help!!

I have posted this problem in Kaiser Upgrading but got only one reply that didnt work either, so posting here too, as i get very few views there, so assuming such problems are better put here... reposting it here.

Hi all!
My Tilt is having a weird problem, which started all of a sudden on 7th morning.
No matter how muchever i try, the phone radio does not connect to my Mobile Network. It keeps saying "searching....." till eternity.
I was using Dutty's V4 + 1.27.12.32 radio.
All was working fine till today early morning. Around 10 am i try to connect to gprs, and i am not able to, then i do a soft reset, and then i see that my phone cannot connect to my mobile network at all. My mobile network is AIRTEL, in India. The phone keeps saying "searching..." and never stops that and hence now i am not connected to my network.
I have flashed different radio roms since morning - .17, .11, .32 again but no luck. Then i reflashed it with Schaps latest 4.33 rom (wm6), but still no result.
Then i thought maybe my sim is bad, and so i put my wife's Vodafone sim, and that worked! (Vodafone works on a different band than Airtel. this i know coz i have a SonyEricsson Mobile handset 3g-enabled of "3" from australia which works only with Vodafone in India, and not with any other network)
Then i put my sim back and it doesnt work again. While my sim is working perfect in my wife's iPhone.
can someone please help me in this, and tell me what i can do?
i wonder if the phone is somehow network locked or something like that ?
i sure did HARDSPL when i first got the TILT one month back. I have also tried flashing with WM6.1 and its respective radios, but with no success.
Please suggest what can i do to get it back up. Its really strange as its been working perfect till morning 8am.
Thanks a lot guys!
I'd go get a new SIM card and test from there.
did you try checking the phone settings to see if anything there might be the cause of the problem? there is the ability to select/override band selection in the phone settings, along with other things you can try to change.
Thanks to you, Grizzley & Somynex...
1. I did get a new simcard and still its unsuccessful.
2. Yes i tried changing the phone settings for changing the BAND, and there seems to be a problem on one of the bands.
VODAFONE works on the 800 band in india. and AIRTEL works on the other one, which is not working...
any other solutions please???
!BUMP!
Anyone got any idea on this? Please help me guys! please advise me what i can do to get it back...
COuld it be a hardware related problem?
!BUMP!
Please help guys, still looking for a solution for this problem... my fone is lying dead like this!
Hello i picked up a g1 about 3 days ago. I started to go through the process of rooting it. Before all of that i got the phone unlocked for att. I installed the dreaimg.nbh and whatnot. When i start the phone to go through the activation process i can't go any further than that. I can't get it to activate. I used a friends tmobile sim card and that didn't even work. It worked before. Can someone help me.
Hey All;
Long time lurker on XDA, first time poster. My phone has been behaving badly, and thus far my googling, and searching XDA has not found any answers; so thank you in advance for any info you can provide.
I have and HTC HD7 (Bell Canada network). This morning my phone rebooted a couple of times, and when it "rebooted" the last time it just hung at the HTC boot screen (white screen with green HTC logo). First I took apart the phone and reseated the SD card. That in itself didn't resolve the issue, but I was able to do a factory reset and got the thing booted.
Now suddenly I am not able to get any service on the phone. It is not giving me any indication that there is an issue with the SIM card, and I even tried it with another known working SIM from my girlfriends phone to no avail. Also oddly, I have connected the phone to my PC, and tried to update it. It will update to 7.10, but will not detect that the mango update (7.5?) is available.
Seems very odd that suddenly the phone would now have no service, and I'm thinking that it must be related to the issues I had this morning. Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
Thanks!
Phone acting wonky/no service
About 6 month ago I had an issue with my old Samsung Omnia 2 using Bell Mobility as well...My phone would continually show no service or jump to roaming mode...A call to bell mobility help line and a good rep indicated to me the sim card was recalled due to issues..A quick trip to bell mobilty and a new sim card fixed the issue...Hope this may help you..I now have an HD7 with the same replacement sim card no issues...
Nope... I manged to get reception for a little bit earlier tonight and then it stopped working again. Pretty sure I must have broken something in the antenna when I remounted the SD card. Tried to fix that problem and now the phone doesn't even power on. Great another $300 device down the toilet...
Hello All,
I purchased a Samsung Focus - i917 to use while over in Spain this year. When I first got here, carrier unlocked the phone, I bought a Yoigo SIM card, inserted it and imput the APN settings for their network. My WhatsApp worked fine, but nothing else worked, which I was fine with for the most part seeing as my social life survived just fine only using the WhatsApp. That was the first month. The second month, I started having problems with the Whatsapp, and I would need to shut down the phone once or twice a week to get the data flowing to that application again. Then at the start of the 3rd month, it stopped working completely, and I haven't been able to get it to work since. I it works fine with WiFi, just not with data. I even switched to Orange a couple months ago to see if that would have any effect, but to no avail. I am on the verge of buying a new phone, but thought i would post one last ditch effort here with you all in the hopes that someone might have an idea/know how to fix this problem.
I was thinking of trying to do an interop unlock, but I'm pretty tech-less, so I could just follow directions, but I would have no idea where to go from there, or what I was actually doing, or how I would solve the data problem if I was successful.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
Ok I did an upgrade on Euphoria rom (OTA) yesterday and managed to lose my data . I just get an ! mark. So I went right back to stock and I'm now on 5.01 with no rooting ,i even locked my bootloader . Still no data . After checking the APN settings were correct I thought it maybe my old sim given up as it was one I cut down form a micro , so off to Three I went and got a new shiny nano sim but its still the same. If I drop into the handset a 02 sim it works . I have no idea
Ive fully wiped formatted etc . It seems to be a three to nexus problem . I have read people on sprint having difficulty's but this did used to work. .Any help would be gratefully received

Use the google provided factory images and flash back to stock. If it works there you know its something with the custom rom, if it doesnt work its probably a phone problem.
I'm on three, no issues here at all
Your not the only one
I was begining to think i was the only one who had this problem!
Yesterday morning i woke up and to my suprise my signal bar had a (!) it it but it was still displaying my regual signal level.
I switched my wifi of and i couldnt get a data connection just the (!) sign. I got my girlfreind to give me a ring and see if a
call would go through which it didnt it just said that i was unavalible. I then desided that a reboot might sort the problem
but when i my phone booted back up i was presented with the holow triangle signal icon to say that i had to signal. I then
popped my simacard out thinking it could have just been a bit of dust on it. I gave it a little bit of a dust of and popped it back
into my phone and i was given the same no signal and emergency calls only yet it was picking up that there was a simcard inserted.
The day before i had flashed the alpha version of PA so my next thought was that this would be a ROM bug and went ahead and
flashed chroma which i was using prior to PA and i had had no issues with. Held my fingers crossed as it booted up but much to my
dismay i was greated with the same no signal problem but i went into the settings and searched for networks. Three was one of
the network it had picke dup so i tryed to reconnect to it but i got the toast to tell me i couldnt connectto the network and to
try again later. I checked the APN settings and it had automatically grabbed threes APN from the sim card so at this stage i was
completly baffled by them problem.
My next move was to try my sim in my girlfreinds phone and what do you know it worked a charm. As a last shot to check everything
was okay and i was upto date on my bills etc i gave three a ring and they told me there was nothing wrong with my sim and everything
was working as it should be and that it was a problem with my phone.
That brings me to the point i am at now completly baffled as to the problem and slightly angry at the 2 week old phone that had been working
perfectly up until now has suddnely desided to stop with no warning.
So you are not the only one and i expect their are more of us. I am going to flash the offical stock rom from google and see if that does the
trick but im not holding up much hope i feel like im going to have to contact google and find out where the problem lies.

Try waiting for a bit before inputting your pin number. This solved the "no network and !-mark" thing. If I input my pin too fast, it will unlock my sim, but won't give any network. I always have to wait few seconds before inputting my pin to get network :/
