Radio Off Issue - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

So recently (about 2 days ago) I purchased a brand new Mi 8. All great except I've had no signal ever since I turned it on for the first time. At first I thought it was some kinda Sim verification Issue but after some trial and error I realized the radio is off. Everything should be up to date. Also I can't really flash anything since I can't unlock my phone (requires mobile data). The sim gets indeed detected but no network at all. Any suggestions? Tried to factory reset a few times but nothing.

Sim Card Missing / Fried Sim

Okey so ive had my diamond for 3 weeks and have had this issue. The device worked fine for 2 weeks except for this problem that it keeps dropping the connection and just says "no service" but when i disable and re-enable the phone radio i get full signal. However one time the device froze and i had to soft reset. After which it said the "sim card is missing, you can make emergency calls if your service provider supports it" when the sim card was in the phone. I tried resets and cleaning the sim all to no avail. So after not being able to find anyone else with this problem i figured it must be my old 2g sim that had been causing the problems so i went and purchased a new 3g sim from my service provider (mobilezone [switzerland]) and inserted it into the device. Everything starts working again and i figure the problem is fixed. However the phone continues to drop the signal again and again over the next few days and finally kills the sim card again, and displays the same "sim missing..." error. So i have now taken it back to the retailer and they say there seems to be no issue with the device as the technichen inserts a new sim and everything works fine. The thing is that the sim cards are completely broken. They no longer work in any device!!! But it took 2 weeks the first time and 3 days the second, so the technicians agreed to test the device for a couple days, im just sure its gna work fine for that amount of time but screw up again after when i use it again. Can anyone provide any insight into this? I speculate that its perhaps an issue with my service provider since they do not have their own network but use orange (switzerland) with their custom network settings, and when configuring the device the WM6 connection wizard only has 3 options and my provider is not listed, so i use the orange config settings, which i thought may be slightly different and cause problems. Ideas?!?!?
Thanks in advance.

If it helps, I had to have a new sim to use it in my new phone (not the diamond, a nokia) because it didn't work properly, as it was a relatively old sim.
Hi did you ever get your sim problem sorted, have been experiencing same,
except my sim still work on other phones?

SIM "disapearing" after 2mn

Hi all,
my wife just received her brand new phone yesterday, a Razr i, and we have a pretty annoying problem since unboxing...
When we turn it on, no problem.
But past like 2mn, we loose every networks except WiFi.
When i try to access SIM card it says "no connectivity", like if there is no SIM at all.
If i remove and insert back the SIM, nothing happens.
But if i reboot the phone, all is working again, for 2mn...
I tried several SIMs known working, same problem.
Tried wiping cache, factory reset, same problem.
Phone is under a french carrier (SFR) with their own 4.1.2 rom, it never asked for a system update, 4.1.2 out of the box :silly:
Do anybody see a solution ? I thought of flashing with a stock rom, but if it is a hardware problem, we're ****ed for the warranty...
I think we'll have to send it to the repair center, but it sucks, the phone is brand new, never worked, and she will have to wait 1-2 weeks to get it back...she was so happy to finally have it :crying:

I had the same...
The problem was related to the old SIM being stamped-out to make it a Micro SIM.
The carrier-shop provided me with a new SIM and all worked fine.
Some older SIM cards are not usable to be stamped out as their tolerances were not precise enough.
Good luck...

A new sim card you need
Like i said we tried several other sim cards, known working, the problem was still there :s
We sent it back for a repair or (i'd prefer) a change, because it looks like a problem that i can't resolve myself.
My wife will have to wait 1-2 weeks to get it back and finally have fun with it :s

Droid Turbo on T-Mobile. Need Help!

So I've had my droid turbo for a month now and I've been using it on T-Mobile and it has worked fine, no issues whatsoever, until yesterday when the service just stopped working. I have no signal at all. I took it to T-Mobile and they couldn't fix it and then Verizon who also couldn't fix it. I tried At&t and Verizon sim cards and they work, but for some reason T-Mobile sims don't work anymore, I woke up and it just had no signal. Also, whenever i put in my sim, i get the message "Restricted access changed voice service is blocked" Please help!!

I've been on T-Mobile with my Turbo for a little over a month now. Delete any APNs if you have any, reboot and test.
If no profit..
Turn wifi, Bluetooth, nfc, anything that connect to any kind of network off and run it dead, then charge it to full and boot back up then turn what you need back on, should have signal again.
If not..
Try another sim from T-Mobile, yours may be damaged if you frequently take the tray out over and over..
The Last possible solution would be to reset the phone entirely, so make backus f what you need beforehand. Then set it up from last backup saved to google if you have one and pop the sim in, let it sit 2-5 mins, reboot, then give it ~2 mins and you should have signal recovered.
If not, then may be an update gone awry or if you have it rooted and such, maybe something you used broke it.
Last problem would be a bad antenna, so try all the above before trying to replace the antenna.
Hope the best of luck for you :
Only Problems I've had on my Turbo was it turning wifi off randomly here and there, making me do a reboot every few days.
Dropped signal once, but that during initial use, so not much to blame on it there
I've been using a Turbo on tMob since 2 wks after release. That said I've run into the same thing a couple times over the past yr. Out of nowhere it just acts up & stops working. As suggested above I'd say about the smae things. So to no repeat it all my first suggestion is try getting a new Sim card from tMob. First time it happened to me it was my sim, other 2 times it was not, sim was good. Only option to fix it on my end was a factory reset of the device. On the resets tho I made sure to use tMob sim, but i also did not start the process until the msg pops up on the turbo saying its " Not a Verizon sim card" i'd clear that and then start the process of resetting it. So far so good as of late, been at least 3-4 months since the last time i was having troubles.

WiFi Calling error and International Roaming issues

Hello everyone.
I'm on a T-Mobile ONE plan and I've been abroad for almost 6 months now and for the past 5 months everything was working smoothly until this past month I've been getting some very annoying issues.
1) WiFi Calling no longer works and only works very rarely once every couple days for only a few hours. I keep getting the error message: ER081 - Unable to connect. This happens no matter which router i'm connected to.
I called T-Mobile about it and they said this was a known issue by Samsung. Samsung gave them a list of things to go by to try and troubleshoot the issue with a master reset being the last resort (which I cannot do). There are no timelines for if an update will be released that will fix this issue.
2) International Roaming no longer works 100% of the time. I keep getting a "No Service" notification with the message "Selected network (Vodafone) not available". (even though it shows 5 full bars). I have to constantly shutdown or pull out the battery and remove the SIM card, put it all back and turn the phone on for the network to come back again. However, this fix is very temporary as the error message comes back either after a few hours or after a few minutes (some times just 1 min!).
During the same T-Mobile call, we ran through a bunch of troubleshooting stuff but nothing was fixed and everything seems fine on their end. My SIM card was in good condition, networks are available, etc.
Are there any known solutions to fixing these issues or do I have to through in the towel and purchase a new phone?
Thank you,

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.

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.
