Can´t use simcard: `emergency only`

Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 for 3 years now. I flashed different roms and did root my phone in all these years. But... now i received a new sim card which works well in other phones but NOT in my ace. So that must be a problem with my ace.. I just flashed back to the stock rom (XEN - Netherlands S5830XENKS1) via ODIN but the problem is still there, i can't use my sim-card: "Emergency only".
I already wiped data and cleared cache, hard reset... nothing works. What could i try to have my phone back working with sim card so i can call, sms and use my dataplan. My phone have no simlock i checked and the IMEI is also the right. The one shown by #06# is the same as printed behind my battery. I also received a new sim card from my provider, but this one also has the same problem.
I hope you guys can help me out! :good::good::good:
UPDATE 1: I tried differend sim cards in the phone. I always used to have T-Mobile as provider. All other simcards are not working, theyre showing up for a few seconds and after that it says: Emergency calls only. When i put in a T-Mobile sim card the provider keeps displayed, so it looks like my phone only works with a t-mobile card. But it's not sim locked, because i also used differend sim cards before..
UPDATE 2: Now my simyo simcard also connects and i can sms, call and internet. But after a few seconds/minutes again the message: Emergency calls only
WHAT COULD THIS PROBLEM BE??!!??! Strange.............. I really hope someone can help me out this

I think your device has a problem to make contact with sims cards, so your device have a trouble accessing read and use sim cards... You can send your device to the support service, to check or try to fix it...Have your warranty still in effect?

Hello, thanks for your reply! No, my warranty is not active anymore. My phone is 3 years old. Today i went to another city and could call and sms the whole day. No internet. When i came home, i received again the message: emergency only. How strange.. I also could'nt find a good rom or firmware to flash back my phone to the full original software and firmware... Can someone help me on that? I need the newest firmware for the samsung galaxy ace s5830, netherlands version. Or maybe a custom rom which is the most used and stable version. I would like to exclude software reasons, so it might be a hardware problem. But i think it's a software fault cause of the different roms i tried on the phone.

It's very strange.. here it is Netherland's fws, try flashing your device if you want, but I've never heard that strange problem xD
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-S5830&pcode=XEN#firmware
Always when you'll change your custom rom do the 3 wipes to leave your device as clean as possible

Thanks for your fast reply! I did this firmware already yesterday and also wiped dat and cache + recovery... The problem keops showing up I will try this same firmware again and let you know if there are changes or not.

You can also flash whatever fw you want from EUROPE, because your device is unlocked in order to check your sim's trouble

Again flashed the original firmware to my Ace. Wiped data and cleared cache. Everything works..... Except... the simcard. Can't call, can't sms and can't make an internet connection. So, still the same problem. The sim works well in another phone, and another simcard in the Ace gives also "Emergency call only". So it HAS to be something with my phone. Someone any idea's i can try / check now i'm very sure it's a phone problem with original new flashed firmware? I hope it's not an hardware defect......... how can i check?
UPDATE: The only simcard which works well is a T-Mobile prepaid simcard. All other simcards sometimes shows up, but most of the time not. The more strange fact is today: I went to another city and was able to call and sms the whole day. But no internet. When i came home, i received again the message: emergency only. This is so strange and makes me very sad. The phone is simlockfree, WHAT COULD IT BE So strange............

Tomorrow i had internet connection, could call and sms. My provider was shown on the screen and nothing wrong. But unfortunately just for a few minutes... No stable connection.

Someone any idea? :crying:

I too faced this problem once.....What I did is that I just formatted the system , wiped data , cache , sd ext and dalvik cache and then restored a backup of my earlier ROM in which the Sim was working ! And it was fixed....

Thanks for your reply! I did your trick but unfortunately... It did'nt help. Very interesting thing is, while i'm traveling around there is no problem, but as soon as i stop driving and walk around, the problems are back. Someone any idea on this strange problem? :crying:

cant access sim
until now this is problem...
why they cant fix this important setting
better to back to stock rom.
is does all are working
yeah CM's are good but still
many bugs and error
like this one.
not STK, sim contact save
and show in contact app
i hope they fix this one asap

You dont have any choice other than visiting the service centre. Yes they may charge you a good amount but seems none of the methods are working.
Also try contacting your service provider maybe thay know the exact reason.

i9305 no mobile signal..what else can i try ?

I Have had this i9305 now without mobile signal, with a vodaphone it did used to show signal but in all cases it always says 'no mobile networks' or 'not registered on network' i have tried with every sim i can think of... it was suggested to flash a stock rom which i did..this made no difference, i then tried installing CM11 and followed the guide to the letter.
I know this phone is not blacklisted as i checked with the imei, i have tried flashing different modems but to be honest im not sure what i am flashing to it..i have tried three different ones now starting with XX as i am in uk...i really dont know if i have missed something or doing something drastically wrong..i have read and read and usualy i would have had this resolved by now...can anyone please help me as i want to give this handset to my girlfriend for a present very soon so we can keep in touch..i am at my wits end with it:crying:
Thanks

Try an emergency restore through Samsung Kies - this should eliminate any software related problem. Sounds to be a hardware problem though so get Triangleaway going and send it for repair if that doesn't work.

Flash 4.1.2, then enable and disable the LTE-only mode hack in the hidden service menu (the *#2263# one, not *#*#4636#*#*). (If you have root, you can also access that menu in 4.3 or even the 4.4.2 port, but it's a bit more involved.)

it won't let me do that as it doesn't list the phone as needing an emergency recovery. I flashed a stock rom and the signal is showing but it keeps saying not registered on network.. if I do a search it finds providers but when I opt for the provider of the sim it just perpetually spins at registering on network.

when you say 4.1.2 which rom.. A stock one or a custom.. could you point me please ?.. The stock rom I have flashed is 4.1.3 I didn't flash a radio after as being stock it would be there already ??

Have just followed a guide to root this unit, upon installing root checker it says this device does not have proper root, Odin reports that everything went ok and i get the red pirate android..when the phone boots a pop up comes up saying unfortunatley SU has stopped working... not sure whether KNOX is stopping this ?

please start your own thread as it is not relevant to mine.

Someone's suggested this phone is barred.. I have run a check which says it's not blocked but it's been suggested that this is unreliable...I have bars showing but just never registered on network.

Does your IMEI reported in *#06# match the one printed under the battery?

[Q] 4G

Well, hey guys. I don't know if this is a problem or not. But when I enable the 4G on my Ascend P7 it works good. But then suddenly it doesn't anymore. The weirdest thing is that the 4G icon is on the top, but just doesn't recieve any data. So I have to reenable the 4G again. Otherwise it doesn't work. I wanted to know if it is my 4G operator problem, or it is related to system? I'm running that B609 Firmware. EMUI 3.0 Thanks in advance.

I don't know...i nave no problems with 4G. Try to contact your telephone company.

Did you manually upgrade to Emui 3.0 or you received OTA? Go to settings ->about phone->certification and click on it. It will tell you for which country your phone is. This way you'll now if you have the right update on your phone. B609 is Europe General, there are two other updates for Europe, one is provider specific (Italy - B613) and the other is for Russian locale (B615). Check Huawei support for other regions update.

Read the whole thread before updating... You have to revert to B123 first and than flash B615.

[Q] Can't access internet thru mobile data (3G SIM)
Hi , I am from India
Recently one of my friend gifted me a Huawei Ascend P7 from Oman.
I've tried to use internet via my 3G SIM Card (using Mobile Data ),but I was unable to get the same .
I am using a 64K SIM card . when I am inserting the SIM card there is a message coming ''The inserted SIM cannot support 4G network''. but still I can make phone call SMS and I can acces internet though wi-fi,its perfect. I'd visited 4 service providers ,but none of them can't resolve the issue.
dear techies ...please help me to solve this issue and enjoy the features of this device.

Of course it will not support 4G! You have a 3G sim. You have to go to your provider and change the sim.

No signal after *#*#4636#*#* PS. Don't change anything on it!!!!

Hello guys.
I have a Z3+ dual and searching on net i found a ussd code that give the possibilty to change the SIM card technology. I perfom some change on it including choose the 'USA BAND'..... Yep, i'm a asshole......
After that my first sim loose the signal. The triangle gets blank... I just have signal on chip 1 when i put WCDMA on it, but this force my second chip to gsm and consequently i loose the signal from second chip.
After alot of tries i could bring back the signal for both chips: I put the WCDMA only on sim card 1 on the 'mobile network'. After that i went to the *#*#4636#*#* menu and put the LTE/WCDMA Pref. and i made a restart. When the phone started i go to the 'mobile network' and put the second chip to LTE. Bingo... Both chips starts to work together....
But not everthing works fine.... When i restarted my phone again i loose my signal from first chip again i need to perform everthing to get everything works...
So, for now i need a help to solve this once for all. Maybe a way to reset the values to default.... Some site tell that we can put something on build. prop.
The best setup is works 3g on first chip and 3g/4g on the second at same time.
Positively don't change anything on this menu.

Phone can not register in GSM network even after SIM unlock (QPST Backup needed)

Hello! I need some help with my HTC One M8 Sprint.
Im from Russia, phone work well about 2 years with full gsm network support.
After turn off due batery disharge SIM Locked again. I flash Sense rom and make sim unlock but my phone unable to conect to the my operator network.
I read here that sometimes GSM bands can be reset. I install QPST, made a backup of NVRAM and folow this instruction https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-one-m8/general/enabling-3g-umts-countries-t2847461.
After this my phone start to see Russian mobile operators, but can not register on them.
I tried chage my SIM card and tried SIM card of another operator, dont work. Just cant register in network.
I think that in addition to the band something else reset in the radio module firmware.
I put the phone in the service center, but the diagnostic for mechanical damage did not give any results, everything is fine.
I attach all avaible info from DFS app and fastboot and proof that my phone scaning networks, maybe someone can help.
If anyone has a backup of NVRAM, please, chare it with me so i can compare parameters.

Ok, I started from the beginning.
Flash 4.25.651.14 firmware.
Install 4.25.651.14 RUU.
In this tread some guy said that he cannot connect to the network on MM RUU and 4.25.651.14 RUU helped him.
Make Factory Reset in fastboot and radio reset through the command ##786#.
Then I make SIM Unlock with this method.
Intall InserctCoin ROM that figure in instruction and go on. SIM unlocked sucessful and GSM operators became available when scanning.
But still can not connect to the network
