I live in greece and have a vodafone sim.The phone is unlocked and worked perfectly.
Today i tried to put another sim and it didn'y read it so i tried to change the band (to 1900 from 900) nothing happened.
So I wanted to restore the band but then i realised that i couldn't access the band tab because it wasn't there.
There are no phone settings to change
I tried a hard-reset but nothing changed
Now every time i try to reinstall the T-mobile ROM 4.00.21 i get an error message telling me something about the connection while the same time activesync is on.I put the rom in the SD card but nothing appears.
I'm depressed and don't know what to do
Is there a way to change the band to 900
If not how can i install the same ROM or an older one.
I'm crying for help
Please help!!
1)In case i forgot now it has 1900 band selected
2)when i open thephne it says something to turn on the wireless radio and prompts me to enter a code i think what do i do there
Other times the phone wont open at all
Use the GSM band selector from the boot loader GSM menu
Could you please tell me the steps to do that.
I'm not very experienced with these thing.
The more you analyze the easier for me.
to get into the bootloader
you softreset the device while holding
down the power button
i got in the bootloader then...
IT says :
WALLABY Bootloader V5.15
GSM OK
By pressing action :
GSM TURN ON
already on reset

hi there, my atrix does not want to register at operator.
My phone was always trying to use 2g cause of better signal.
I went to Admin menu (*#*#4636#*#*), changed to WCDMA preffered, but in about a minute it did not change. I tapped function key and then Select Radio Band, it was only USA - i tapped it.
So he do not even try to register at any operator.
but i can call 112.
there is no any band other thsn USA.
Our band are almost same
900/1800/2100
So at least some operators must register.
may be i can refresh the modem part via bootmenu?
Or is there a way to reflash the modem part?
thanx

Hi friends,
i was playing around with the title code of this topic.
After entering *#*#4636#*#* in my x10,i selected phone information,pressed the physical menu key on left of phone,than clicked "select radio band". In that there was only option under the "set gsm/umts band" which read "usa band".
I selected that and instantly lost network signal. I live in india and the phone is of usa at&t unlocked.
Now i am not getting signal. I tried to press the menu key again but it reads "usa band only". Tried to manully select network,but no luck.
Finally i also did factory reset,wiped cache partition,reflashed my wolfbreak rom ,but could nt get signal.
What else can i try?
is there any one who can help?
IS there anyway to rollback to original/default settings/bands?
any chance that there is a restore, or similar button inside that menu? Have you checked this?

Okay, here's the fix - I found this out because I did EXACTLY THE SAME (curiosity killed this particular cat!!) and PRESD BUTAN (USA Band) without thinking, on my Japanese X10 (SO-01B), which, as you did, set my phone to the wrong band for Japan. Duh!
Anyway on to the fix...
1) Bring up the service menu with *#*#4636#*#* at the phone dialer
2) Select Phone Information menu
3) Switch the phone to FLIGHT/AIRPLANE MODE (I did this by dragging down the top menu bar on my phone which is running a custom rom)
4) Press the menu key and SELECT RADIO BAND - you'll see the complete list of country bands - do NOT select a band yet....
5) Switch FLIGHT/AIRPLANE MODE OFF
6) Select the country Band you require - you should now see a success message.
7) Congratulations on getting your cellphone signal back
Regards!

hi, does erasing the modemst mess with the phone's communication functionalities? some forums are reporting problems after erasing the modemst (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/sim-status-erasing-modemst-t3160579) but it was on a different device. I'm on lenovo zuk z1, and having the same problem. I would like to try this solution out if it does not mess with the communication functions.

Hi Brother,
I'm facing the same issue on my Nexus 6p in India purchased from USA. Do you have any solution to deal with this problem?
Thanks.
Omg! I posted this in 2012 ? After 5 years still people are facing this issue! As far as i can remember i had to reflash stock Rom to get it back to normal. Thanks everyone for replies
[Q] changing engineermode "band mode" settings on S7589 + request S7589 factory rom
I recently picked up a Star Kingelon S7589 from an ebay vendor. This is actually the 2nd one, the first one I had to return due to a hardware failure.
My problem: I'm in Chicago where I had no problem getting UMTS/HSPA speeds on the replacement phone with AT&T as my carrier. But AT&T's pricing is a major burn. So I switched to T-mobile.
But the replacement phone had its own problems. The stock factory rom had problems with the face camera. So I requested an updated rom from the vendor - idiot vendors gave me the rom for an entirely different phone! (an unrelated ZOPO model as it happens. Gave me a nice black screen at bootup while playing what I can only describe as Chinese Video Game Music. GRRR!). So I had to mess around with trying various roms from needrom and other sources. Managed to find a relatively recent rom that flashes using the SP_Flash_Tool at boot time, but I've been unable to sideload any of the mods via adb in recovery mode, though I can get adb working for app installation and shell commands when the phone is fully booted.
Now having switched to T-mobile I find I can only get about 2.5G speeds. I inquire in a few places and learn they only use 2100/1700 WCDMA-AWS for HSPA+ in the Chicago area.
Upon going into "engineer mode"->BandMode,
I find all four GSM modes ticked. But under UMTS modes the only ones selected are WCDMA-IMT-2000, WCDMA-CLR-850 and WCDMA-800.
The rest, which includes WCDMA-PCS-1900, WCDMA-DCS-1800, and the mode I believe I need to use T-mobile, WCDMA-AWS-1700, are greyed out, in addition to a few others.
So next I explored the Android Testing Mode, and selected the option to "Change Radio Band."
On my list I have "Automatic", "EURO Band", "JAPAN Band", "AUS Band", and "AUS2 Band".
No USA Band.
So my questions are:
* On "Change Radio Band," does the lack of a "USA Band" choice there reflect a limitation of the baseband hardware? Or could this have changed when I flashed the phone? (I only learned about EngineerMode and Test Mode after flashing.)
* Are there any ways to un-grey the greyed-out UMTS modes in EngineerMode, especially WCDMA-AWS-1700?
* Is there a utility to query the phones baseband functionality and display the actual capabilities of the phone, as opposed to relying on data displayed in "engineermode" and "change radio band"?
* Finally, on the main EngineerMode menu, beneath BandMode is a greyed out option "BSPTelephonyDevTool". Any info on what this is? Even if its not relevant to my problem I'm still curious.
For what its worth, post-flashing a new rom from needroms:
The face-facing camera DOES work. However:
* the default language is now Chinese. It was easy enough for me to navigate to the appropriate menu to change it to English. But I don't know Chinese. Phone is encrypted and about half the time after a reboot the boot-time password prompt to unencrypt the phone is in Chinese.
* the phone as it currently stands reports its baseband as MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V6.P4, 2013/04/12. (I dont expect that would have changed from flashing.)
* Phone perhaps incorrectly reports its model number as GT-N7102. I say perhaps incorrectly because GT-N7102 roms do not work on this phone. (Im not quite sure what was in this field before flashing, but I seem to recall it was something like S7589.)
* Build number is Star7589-2013/04/20 by laoxu321 .
If anyone has an english language factory ROM image for this phone I'd be grateful.
Also, at this point if I can't turn on WCDMA-AWS-1700, I'll probably offer the phone for sale.
Best,
stimoceiver
From my knowledge, it is a hardware limitation, I have this phone and I use tmobile and it only gets edge network speeds. But with AT&T I get H+ speeds. Amd regarding the rom, the model GT-N7102 shows up because it was put there by the rom developer. They used the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 model number. Also, for roms, you can find them on needrom.com I am using a rom called Saigon or something and it works great
Hi,
Following a tips in an android newsblog (In France), i was visiting the *#*#4636#*#* menu.
By curiosity, I tap on the menu "Sélectionner une bande radio" (choose a baseband).
I've only a "United States" choice but after did nothing. I lose all my phone network.
Just the data work and the sms.
What can I do to this ?
I think to flash a baseband firmware but where can I find one ?
Thanks for everyone who could save my phone

Switch your radio band back to automatic? Go to *#*#4636#*#* and click the overview (3 dots) at the top right. Hit select radio band, then hit automatic. Reboot phone.
Thanks but no auto option for me :/
I've done a Factory reset but no change.

I try to put network in Only 3G or 2G and got nothing. Maybe that's why there's no call but sms and data. No VoLTE in France.
When selecting United States band (that I didn't want to do), i break the 3G and 2G connection.
Hi,
I've speak with the Motorola support in France.
In the hidden menu, i've selected the united states band so now I only received the LTE (the only which are the same than here). No 3G and no 2G.
And because We've got no VoLTE, I can't use calls.
And no method to revert this process.
Go in warranty...
Actually there should be a way, because I have the selection:
Automatic
Europe
Automatic
United States
You probably have to update to a current stock ROM so the modem firmware updates and you might be able to select a different baseband... all theory but if you still have the phone, it's worth a try.
edit: I'm using a custom ROM, so I may be wrong.
For you there is no way of using a custom ROM without having problems with warranty.
If still relevant, I made the same mistake with my stock Moto xt1650-03 and the only way managed to restore signal was by using fastboot erase modemst commands. Though I have seen people not recommending this method, it worked for me.
