IMEI is not missing but SIM Card is ? - Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers

Hi! I've had a problem for a month or so but it's only gotten annoying this week:
I've messed around between custom roms and lost my IMEI quite frequently but I've always managed to get it back up and working and I have my EFS and persist TWRP backed up and safely stored.
Thing is and that's the problem, I have network but often, out of nowhere (while I watch a YouTube video, while on Google Maps, during a call, even in airplane mode), I lose all networks but not in the traditional way: it literally does not detect my SIM card anymore until I completely reboot my phone, which sometimes does not even solve the issue.
I used to just restore my TWRP backup and it didn't bother me for a day or so, but now the SIM Card is "gone" almost every hour and I often need to totally reflash my rom to gain it back.
I never physically remove the SIM card from the phone and the phone has never been damaged, so I really don't get where this all came from or how to resolve it once and for all.
If anyone has an idea or the solution and can help me, a thousand thanks to you !​
PS: I don't have VoLTE as I'm in France​

[Q] loosing Network Signal and it don't come back!

Hi Folks,
how in the topic, im loosing my signal at point where my signal is weak. if i lost it, i can run around to get it back to write messages or call someone. it doesnt work, because my phone say's "only Emergency calls". i wait one hour but the phone can't connect to my provider. The radio is at the moment 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7, i've already tried newer and older version of the radio img but always the same issue. From the beginning when i had the phone, it sometimes doesn't regognize my sim card, i have tried everything to get it to work (new rom or radio img) but always it fails. on the next day without any changes the phone works again with the same sim card. So now here is my question....... what the HELL can i do to bring it back to work, so it dont lose the signal in weak areas, and if the phone loses it, what shall i do to automaticly reconnect the phone automaticly to the provider. and airplane mode is no soloution for me. thanks for answer.
Have you tried another SIM card in there to see if the problem still occurs?
Sometimes the card itself needs replacing. Just a thought..!
this i havn't tried out yet, but i tried my actual sim card at the phone of my wife and it works a whole day without connection lose. I'm just thinking its a software problem maybe its the wrong radio version.
No "wrong radio version" will lose connection and fail to reconnect.
It's either your ROM or (most probably) HW problem.
You can try to wipe and install a clean ROM and see if the problem persists. If it does - use the warranty.
which rom would u suggest ? I tried CM6 / CM7 / MIUI nearly all modded roms here. The problem is to try out if the rom works i have to go out to a point where the signal ist weak, and hope for a signal lost. Sometimes it works and i get a reconnect to network and sometimes it doesn't work. in zones where the signal is strong i haven't any trouble. Did i get any problems by HTC if my phone is unlocked? I already had it gave to a repair 3 month ago with a broken usb connector and there was no trouble with warranty at unlocked phone but what is now? can they change their opinion ?
I got it. The Problem was the the Phone has to set the Network search to manual and not to automatic search. it works now for over 1 day and it seem that is now no problem with lost signal. Thanks for Help. But i just wondering why i have to chose manual network search an not automatic.

[Q] No network issue LG Optimus 4x HD

Hi guys,
I have a LG Optimus 4x HD with stock rom (Jelly bean). About three weeks ago, I suddenly lost my network connection and it looked like my phone didn't recognize my SIM card. I put my battery and my Sim out and in my phone, but that didn't help. I tried many SIM cards and they work excellent on my other phone. When I turn my device on It just boots up and doesn't ask for my pin code at all. I see no difference when my SIM card is in or out my device. However, it does recognize my SD card, so I think there is a problem with the software? On the lock screen I just see the message ''no service'' and at the top I see this (first pic). When I try to dial someone it says ''reorganization of internal processes. Try it later.''. I read on a forum that I had to go to ''mobile networks'' in settings, but that isn't possible (pic 2).I also tried to put some paper between my sim card and my sim card slot but that didn't work either. Does someone have this problem too or is there somebody who can help me to solve this problem? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

I discovered that my phone doesn't have an IMEI and IMEI SV code anymore. It also doesn't have an baseband version. Do you guys know this caused the lost of my network connection and does anyone know how I can recover my IMEI number? Finally I managed to enter the mobile networks in settings by do a long tap on the data icon in the notification center. I hope someone can help me.
I have the same problem as you. With every restart the phone is unable to read the sim card. Also the baseband is shown as unknown, and I don't have imei no. The solution for me is to remove the battery, and put the phone in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.(yes in the refrigerator The phone is getting very hot when is searching for network and to have it really cool helps apparently. Try it yourself to see if it does the job for you and let us know.

Thanks for your reply! This morning, my phone finally asked for the first time for the sim password and I finally got a signal. I got my IMEI and my baseband number back. Unfortunately, after an hour or so I tried to send a sms and I wasn't able to send it. I got the error no USIM or so. The IMEI and Baseband number disappeared agian. I turned flightmode on and of and I didn't get a signal again... New today was that I am now unable to connect to multiple wifi networks too. Now my WI-FI MAC-adress is 00:00:00:00:00:00. I already lost the phone and I now also lost the smart part of my smartphone... I also tried to put my phone in the refrigerator but sadly it didn't help. I think I have to buy a new phone....

Sorry to say that "It's time to say goodbye"
I got same problem with you and try all kind of possibility. Here is final verdicts:
- Some phone repairers I know said It's the encrypted baseband partition is damaged, unless you have backup of that, it's a no-go
- I've tried to reflash the phone and it will stuck at 10%, you have to push really hard at some point at the back to make is flashable. After that, the signal back on with baseband and IMEI.... but only for a few restarts it will be gone
Hi blbterminator,
I already said goodbye to my p880 (has been replaced for the G3), but thanks for your reply. Now it's clear for me that's it's a hardware issue.
Maybe do you know if this problem only affects the lg p880 or other brands or models too?
Many thanks!

Weird Nokia 8 sim-problem.

Sorry if this kind of problem has come up before, but I couldn't find anything similar to this so I decided to ask you guys if you have seen this before.
So, my problem started out of nowhere, my Nokia 8 (TA-1004) lost wifi and mobile data. I can't connect to wifi anymore and I have no service.
So here comes the weird part. My sim works in every other phone I've tested it, it just doesn't work in mine, AND every other sim card I've tested in my phone
works fine. My sim also blocks my wifi somehow, if it's inserted, it keeps turning off my phone's wifi, no matter how many times I keep turning it on. If I take
sim out, wifi works fine.
I forgot to mention that when this first occurred, I managed to get it work by turning on my phone with my brother's sim inserted, then switching his sim to mine without turning the phone off.
If I turned it off, the problem came back. Now, after Oreo 8.1 update and new sim-card, even this method doesn't work. Nothing has worked since.
Here's what I've done:
-Got new sim-card
-Factory reset through settings
-Wipe data/factory reset through recovery
-I called my operator, they didn't know what the problem is. They recommended to send my phone to manufacturer, but I hope it doesn't come to that. And maybe they
would try their sims in my phone and they would think there is no problem so no need to do anything.
Any help is highly appreciated, thanks
This is very strange problem. Only thing that comes to my mind as a solution is choosing the network by yourself
Sent from my TA-1012 using XDA Labs
I can't change any mobile network settings, because my sim card is detected only for a few seconds and then it's not, so it keeps turning it on and off.
Now I've tried my phone with two sim cards, my brother's (which worked fine on its own) and mine, and turns out that with my sim the other sim doesn't work either.
Same problem here...
every sim card works on the nokia 8 except the one that needs to work...
every other telephone works fine with said sim...
It is a complete new phone so we never tried it with an earlier version than android 8.1
Same problem here, I'm not sure if I downgrade the phone to 7.1 will it work again
Hello,
I have quite similar problem with my phone apart the fact that it was working perfectly with data until I receive Android Oreo 8.1 update (security update 1st Mai 2018). Since this upgrade data doesn't work with my SIM into Slot 1.
When I use the same SIM into slot 2 (hybrid slot that normally contains my memory card) then Data is back.
Do you have the same on your phone?
PS : I've contacted Nokia and their answer is : We have a lot of users reporting this, we are working on it.... I'm miss my old samsung S5....at least the updates were tested before release.
Nokia hotspot failed
I have the similar problem as I've changed the service provider. The new service has 50GB data volume. When turned the hotspot on for wifi sharing with my family, this function did not work but it was showing other devices had connected to the Nokia 8 but unable to use the wifi sharing. Therefore, I inserted the new 50GB sim to my daughter's iPhone 6 and it was running well when turned the iPhone 6 hotspot on. i.e. the sim card got nothing wrong. I did ask Nokia support and they did not find any issues on my Nokia 8. I reckon that must be the phone software / firmware problem as I could share the wifi for my family before I switched to the new service provider. Hope Nokia fix up this issue when they launch the new update. I feel depressed on this brand. I'd been using iPhones & Google Nexus 5 were running perfectly except Nokia.

Thank you.
Hey there,
I'm having the cellular connection dropping out 80% of the time and then coming back on randomly 20% of the time since the latest beta update (build 00WW_5_110_SP01).
I asked to revert back to the latest stable build OTA several days ago and still no notification.

Mi 8 - No SIM/WIFI, random reboots

Hello there
Long story short, I updated my Mi 8 (Global Version) to MIUI 11.0.1.0 before the update got suspended. A few weeks ago, my network provider had some technical difficulties, so I lost the signal a few times throughout the day.
A few days later it happened again, even though my provider fixed everything.
But this time I also lost my WiFi connection and I didn't get it back to work.
After rebooting, my SIM did not get recognized and my phone didn't want to connect to the WiFi network
After rebooting it over and over again for like 10mins, everything worked again.
But this issue occured every day since then.
A few days ago I updated my phone to MIUI 11.0.3.0 and the issue was gone for a day or two.
But now I am experiencing those things again, but this time it usually takes a few seconds and the sim activation service starts again and everything works fine for the next few hours until it happens again.
I will provide a full log later, hopefully someone can figure something out.
I really don't know whether it's a software or hardware issue, but losing signal and WiFi like every hour is driving me crazy and I'd like to avoid resetting my phone....
Oh and by the way, I don't have TWRP installed and it's not rooted or anything else.
Hi,
With me it happened exactly the same, I already paid to solve it and nobody has done it until now. I already lost hope of ever being able to repair
I've been having the same problem.
It's been incredibly frustrating.
[Update:] I went to a local repair shop, it's a hardware related issue.
For everyone else having this issue, try the USSD Code *#06#
If you receive an error, your Baseband Chip may be broken.
At least that's what I was told.
I have unknown baseband, did you replace the baseband chip?
if I put *#06# (no sim card in phone) it just shows up blank white pop-up with label IMEI, but no IMEI number or numbers or nothing else.
Mi8 no signal SIM/WIFI
Hello again
Same problem to my Mi8
When I tap *#06# show my MEID, IMEI1 and IMEI 2
Did you solve the problem ?!
Good morning. I have an MI8 MIUI 11, when I insert the SIM it recognizes it and disconnects itself constantly, the connection is not stable, when I turn on the wifi with the SIM on, the wifi is constantly disconnected and at times the wifi does not turn on, at some point too only the computer was restarted. When I take out the SIM the wifi works stable and well. Any idea of the problem ?? soft or hard? A technician told me that the problem is the display module, but they tested it without the SIM so I calculate that it is not the issue.
Yes, Hardware problem
Confirmed the problem is the baseband, but this cell phone model has the baseband integrated in the SoC (CPU, GPU, NPU and Ram) all one, it seems that it is a soldering problem

Sim card is visible but constantly No service

Good day, everyone.
I decided to ask for help because I cannot find any solution here and I'm out of ideas myself.
Three days ago my signal strength began to fluctuate. From full 4G to No Service, several times per hour, and eventually it stopped there. Sim card is visible but all I've got is No Service. I opened the phone and checked for possible damage but found nothing.
Thinking that it may be something software related I have installed Beast OS (sweet ROM, btw). That didn't help with signal problem. Still No Service. I've made clean flash from recovery several times, and tried different firmware versions but still no luck. Today I flashed MIUI Global 11.0.2 via flashboot but that didn't help either. Oh, yeah. One more thing that may or may not give you a hint. When I used *#*#4636#*#* while on Beast OS I couldn't turn radio on. I can do that now on stock ROM but it doesn't help either.
Please, if anyone has an idea of what can I do, let me know before I give up on this otherwise really good phone.
Just to clarify, microSD card works just fine but SIM card put in the same slot still has that connectivity problem.
