TILT roaming network problem

Hi:
I got my AT&T TILT last April unlocked and use it in USA with a foreign SIM using roaming, it works perfectly. I get back to my country and the phone worked fine.
Now, I returned to USA yesterday and when power up the phone got the phone searching for a network, it shows AT&T MY Service for a while but then it lost the connection. Since then, I can't find a network. I go to phone settings and press on FIND NETWORK but nothing happens. Is this a known issue?
Any idea what could be the problem ?
Thanks

sounds more like a sim card issue

if u didn't flash a new rom than the network problem might be att related.
if a soft reset doesn't solve ur problem than call att to get it fixed

Sorry for the late response.....
Appreciate both your help !!! I will check again in 1 week when
I visit USA again !!
Thanks

HTC stopped dialing out, no receive either!

I have a TN Ty II that was locked to the Orange UK network. I succesfully unlocked it and it has been working fine on T-Mobile(Virgin) PAYG for about 4 months. Now it will not receive or make calls, but signal on T-Mobile is fine, connects to the netork, no problem. If I insert an Orange PAYG Sim the phone works fine (In/Out). Virgin have said that maybe my number is "Black Listed" and that they would send me a new SimCard with the same number!! Seems strange if my number is BlackListed. My question is When a network provider provides a customer with a phone do they log the phones IMS number? Could they then stop that phone working on other networks, or request that other networks block the phone with that IMS?
Any help appreciated.

Galaxy-s not working 3g or gprs

Hello,
in Uk a brought a Galaxy-S (T-mobile) and unlocked it. Now I'm back in Italy and I put my old SIM card. The Phone works, except for 3g, edge or any mobile connectivity. I think there is two options:
- The phone is still locked.
- My sim is very old (from 1999), may be no more compatible with 3g.
How do I find out which is the case and how I solve that?
Thanks guys (girls too).

No network
Hi m8
Could you please check your imei number, I did exactly the same.
I bought my sgs on firmware 2.1 & unlocked it via free unlock tool, I then messed with some new firmwares. Recently tried to sell my phone as unlocked but when buyer put their sim in, It shows a signal but no data network connection.
After messing around with different sims i did a check & noticed my firmware is some stupid 04999????
Regards
Mark

What does that mean?? Is it related to IMEI somehow?? What should I check about it? How do I fix that? I've 2.2 by the way

[Q] After CM9, can't use phone in another country?

Hi all --
Have had i9000 with o2 (Germany) for about 2 years. Used the phone in countries all over Europe with no problem.
Recently upgraded the phone to use CM9, and everything was fine here in Germany.
Went to Norway this week, but could not connect to any mobile network. All were rejecting me. Noticed that my IMEI was showing up as 004999010640000 -- figured that might have been the problem.
When returning to Germany, I checked my IMEI number, and it was displaying the correct number.
First off, how is that possible? I thought IMEI was what it was, and displaying the number (via *#06#) had nothing to do with the network I was/wasn't connected to.
Second -- what must I do so that I can once again use the phone when traveling outside of Germany?
Rather desperate -- thanks!!!

Really sorry to bump my own post, but I truly am desperate. I just cannot understand why I can no longer connect to a foreign network when I always could from this phone. I'm leaving for a business trip tomorrow and will be screwed if my phone doesn't work.
I'm running CM9 with baseband version I9000XXJVT, if that's any help. Do I need to flash another modem?
Is there nobody out there who can offer at least some advice and/or suggestion?

This is rather odd, as IMEI does not change based on location or network, it can be blocked by Networks , meaning O2 may not have agreements with other networks for it to connect when you are roaming to some or all other networks. BUT NO Network/modem can change your IMEI, only you can corrupt it by using a custom firmware read this
So what you have mentioned makes little sense and you need to contact your sim provider, as to why you cannot connect to other networks . (could be due to a sim lock)

Agreed -- it makes no sense whatsoever. Even stranger is the fact that though I could not connect to any network, I was able to get data -- check emails, etc. Phone calls were not possible, and there was an 'X' over the signal bars in the top bar. Can't explain that either...
Prior to CM9, I had no problem connecting in Norway (I was using stock Gingerbread.) Only this time was I denied access to any and all networks.
However, at the moment I am in Denmark, and I have managed to connect to one of their networks with no problem. Let's see if it works in Finland later....

most likely a roaming problem that your network provider needs to address

Sorry for interference , but after your description seems to be the know lost of IMEI after flashing a custom ROM.
If you have a backup of efs ...its simply to restore IMEI...just search the forum, there are a lot of posts about restoring IMEI...
If not have that backup, then install again GB 2.3.6....make a save efs folder...and then install again CM9, i recomend last CM 9 Stable.
Greetings.

[Q] Can't connect to Telus, just Rogers

Ok guys very strange and a little bit of a long winded story here......
So I am from the UK and have a factory sim free HTC One M7, used in the UK on EE no issues.
I am travelling in Canada so decided to get a Telus Prepaid Sim card, went to the store had it activated and installed today and it was working fine for about 3 hours in Medicine Hat. As I drove out the city it began to lose signal, now the only network I can see under carriers is Rogers.
I tried the sim in my friends phone (samsung s3) and it works fine and picks up signal immediately.
So it MUST be a phone issue, can someone please help me find a solution?

so that means either your phone is locked and it does not allow for overseas carriers. reason you see rogers is thats roaming mode on and connected to Rogers.

How can that be the case when it was working when I first installed the sim in the store?
Also I bought the phone new sim free???

go to settings and go to apn settings. is it specific to telus? i had kitkat installed but apn settings never saved or let me change it. it was a bug. But in custom roms it was fixed.
anyways these are the apn settings for telus:

option 2) try other sims Bell, rogers, koodoo, fido. if they work then its unlocked phone.
factory reset if anything.

Out of Telus coverage?

Ok I gave up with it in the end and sold the sim card to a friend.
I bought a Rogers sim card as the phone was picking that up quite easily, ow my issue is I am only getting an EDGE connection when I am in an area that supports HSPA+
I'm really beginning to despair.
