[Q] Unrecognized Sim card and missed Network Operators & APN menus - Motorola Photon 4G

Lets start with the device: Motorola Photon (sprint) had a bootloader unlocked, root and CM7.2 rom (v. 2.3.7).
Today I put a new sim card (that works fine with other phones) and when I turned the phone on and went to change the apn and operator network, iv noticed that there are both missing.
All I have is new options about CDMA network (CMDA/EvDo) and changing roaming of CDMA (Home , Automatic).
Tried any combination, nothing helps...
I also tried other sims and also the older sim Iv used few minutes before, same problem...seems like the phone has locked again or something.
When I turn it on there is a "unlocking" message while the motorola logo shown, so I have no idea what it could be....
Im not from the U.S so I cant connect to their networks....
// also there is no "insert sim card" message, so the sim card not the problem.
Anyone knows what could be the problem? there is any way to 'reset' the operator settings or something.. or any other way that won't need to 'format' the device .. ?
Thanks!

Well, I tried to wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik-cache, then install the same rom again.. seems it dosn't help or done something...
What else could it be?
Should I wipe something else and try other rom?
//
Iv also noticed that the IMEI has changed to MEID...

[Q] NO Network after attempted unlock

Hi all,
My friend attempted to unlock her X10i (not sure how), but basically although the phone boots past the SE logo, it sits on a blank screen with a cross through the network icon when any SIM is inserted.
I have flashed back (various ROMS) with SEflasher and now have the full menu, but it still wont recognise a SIM card. Is there a way to rectify this?
I get the message no SIM recognised when trying to use SETool, so I suspect its screwed something up.
Any Ideas to recover connectivity?
Thanks in advance.
Herbert
Can you still make any calls? Did you try to? In your network setting can you select your carrier?
Try to go in your APN setting and set them manually. Google your carrier APN setting and input all of them. I am in Rogers and i got around 5 of them for calling, internet, SMS, MMS, etc.
When done put your phone in Plane mode, wait a bit and put on 3G or wtv you use. See if it works. If not set them up and restart the phone.
You can also use this program: APN Backup&Restore. If you can roll back to a rom where it works or if a friend has Droid phone and is on the same network, install the app there, run it and backup the APN settings.
Then install that same app on your phone via FlashTool and put the backed-up file on your phone (SD Card) and use that app to restore the APN settings.
See if that works. I had a problem where i didnt have internet connection but could still make calls, use that manual setup/app and it worked for me.
Let me know if it works.

check baseband plz !!! which method did u follow to unlock ur x10????
she messed up the service menu of the sim which only telecom operators should use. sadly, now she gotta get a new sim card.

[REQ/INFO] KDDI Au Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE [Model: SCL21]

Hello, I'm wondering if there is a guide or any info at all about rooting the KDDI's SGS3 LTE. I saw a bunch of thread for the NTT DoCoMo version but none about the KDDI version. No idea if they use the same hardware or not.
Root success by flashing CWM recovery and sgs3_rooting_supersu_v3.zip. Those tools are specified for Galaxy S3 NTT Docomo (SC-06D) but they also worked for Galaxy S3 Progre from AU KDDI (SCL21).
Just wondering how to unlock this SCL21, if anybody knows, please share.

I am also trying to find out a way to root my SCL21 but am having no luck. I have tried many of the "Universal 4.0.4 rooting methods" but have had no luck. Brong, would you mind sharing exactly what you did? The threads here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999024 and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996940&page=2 warn about using the docomo method because it bricks the phone. Nothing seems to work with our model. Any help would be appriciated. Thanks.

Hi,
First step is flash the CWM recovery via Odin. You can download CWM recovery from here:
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B...ZhbUE/edit?docId=0B98X7HyfoaGaNzNvR052dUp0Wmc
Choose this file: SC06D-JB-KBC-CWM-V6.0.1.2_r10-recovery-odin.tar.md5
Flash that file in Odin, choose the PDA in Odin.
I assume you already know how to flash via Odin, if you dont know just ask me again or try to browse other thread.
Step two is run the CWM recovery. Also, I assume you already know to get into recovery mode. Make backup first in recovery mode, you need to insert external SD card and save the backup in the card.
Step three, download this file sgs3_rooting_supersu_v3.zip from here:
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B...ZhbUE/edit?docId=0B98X7HyfoaGaR21wdXZweDdYSXM and save it to the external SD card that you used before.
Step four, run the recovery mode again and choose install from SD card, then choose external sd card and choose the file you donwloaded (sgs3_rooting_supersu_v3.zip). After completing all, reboot your phone and you will see the Super User app. Make sure you download root checker in Play store so you can check whether the phone are rooted or not.
Note: If you run the recovery, the screen will reverse. Dont worry, it works eventhough the screen reverses.
Thats all. I am looking the way to unlock this phone, *#197328640# doesnt work. If you have a clue, please let me know.

I see a Vietnam website with video on youtube. It shows that this phone has been unlocked.
http://choimobile.vn/threads/unlock-samsung-s3-scl21-au-kddi-nhat-ban.2699/
Any idea how to SIM unlock this phone?, really appreciate any help.
Thanks.
Updated:
I found a new thing regarding this phone. This phone doesn't support non LTE sim card, even you have micro sim (3G) card from AU KDDI. I am trying to find other LTE sim card from other carrier in order to check whether this phone works on that sim or not.
May be somebody can explain why this phone doesn't support non LTE sim. In case of Galaxy s3 LTE from NTT Docomo, it works when I used 3G sim (FOMA). I cut the 3G sim to fit the micro slot.
unlock for this phone
well, my purpose is/was to unlock this phone so I followed the samsung galaxy s3/note unlock method from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014982
(I have/had this S3 Progre SCL21, the same phone in this thread)
I can access all the menu and procedure from that thread below, despite this phone being stock Android 4.04!
----------------
"Main Menu > [1] UMTS > [1] Debug Screen > [8] Phone Control > [6] Network Lock > Options [3]Perso SHA256 OFF > (after choosing this option, wait about 30 seconds, then go back one step by pressing the Menu button then select Back, now you are in [6] Network Lock then choose [4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ ..... wait for a minute then reboot your phone..."
---------------
I put 3G/2G sim card and the phone shows no service. I even put CDMA network sim, no luck. I don't know if this phone is unlocked. I'm wondering if this phone works only with LTE/4g sim. Right now, there's no 4G/LTE in my region
I assume the phone must support all other bands, if properly unlocked.
Now, I'm wandering through the threads and googling.
So far, I'm looking for Jelly Bean 4.1.1 for this phone, which doesn't seem to be available anywhere, even on samfirmware, only stock firmware
Root/flash CWM recovery and try some other unlock method from out there, (after making a backup Stock ROM and sensitive IMEI/NV data of course)
Please keep everyone updated and keep the spirit alive

Actually this phone, SCL21 can be used with LTE sim card only. I already tried to use non LTE sim card from KDDI AU with no luck.
What I am thinking is actually this phone maybe unlock-able by using the procedure as you mentioned (NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ). Since the phone can only be used with LTE sim card, we need to try LTE sim card from other carrier in order to test.
The problem is I dont have other carrier LTE sim card right now, if you have you can try it.
Update: Also I am wondering how to make this phone works with not only LTE/4G but also with 3G/CDMA. I changed the band to automatic, but there is no luck. I think this phone is locked to be used only with LTE/4G sim card. So, if somebody knows how to deal with this matter (make the phone not only accepts LTE/4G sim card, but also 3G/CDMA sim card) please share with us here.

Hi everyone ^_^
I just got the SCL21 about two weeks ago. I think it's really strange that even on the Japanese forums, there is very little info on rooting this model. From everything I've found, some Japanese sites also both say it's OKAY to root using the Docomo SC-06D recovery and Superuser zip while others say that it's NOT safe to use that same method and it will result in a bricked phone. Really odd, conflicting messages I think.
What is even more strange is the apparent issue with the screen "reversing"? One of the Japanese sites literally said the screen becomes "upside down" after flashing the SC-06D recovery.
Brong, since you got the root to work successfully , could you please elaborate on the "reversing" of the screen? Is the image upside down and only during the recovery mode? Also, do you know if the root caused you to lose the "osaifu Keitai" touch feature?
Thanks a lot to Brong and everyone else helping out with this model phone!!

Status of SIM access
Hi,
I tested both a 3G micro SIM and a 4G LTE nano SIM from Softbank in this phone and neither card is recognized. The phone acts as though no SIM is inserted at all. (Complete with the "no smoking" symbol (circle with diagonal line through it) instead of a signal meter. I have confirmed that this phone is indeed sold already SIM unlocked from the factory as the MSL is 000000 just like the Verizon Galaxy S III which is also sold without a SIM lock. Additionally, KDDI lists the SCL21 and all other LTE phones they are selling since the debut last winter as being SIM unlocked devices.
According to some Japanese forums, they are suspecting that this phone has some type of hardware lock (hard locked?)... I contacted the only known person who was successful at using a 3rd party SIM on the Vietnamese Viettel GSM network as in a YouTube video. He wouldn't give me any details except that he must have the phone physically in his shop to modify it and it can't be done remotely. This individual also has screenshots showing the stock ROM version running in Vietnamese which makes me believe that he flashed something to the stock ROM to gain SIM detection of 3rd party cards.. Anyone have any ideas about such a hardware locking mechanism?

I was almost loosing my hope because i was really eager to use this phone because of its features, a nice looking phone and its very expensive here in my country.
Few days ago i was browsing the net, i came across with this code *#197328640# that opened the window for me on how i could use the phone with any kind of sim card wether its LTE or 3G ..Im telling you guys the answers are all in that code

my phone need to unlock, please help
He's referring to the service mode. In that case, here are the steps to perform an unlock using the service mode (tested to work ONLY on the docomo models SC-06D and SC-03E; NO GUARANTEE IT WILL WORK ON THE SCL21):
1. Enter service mode by dialing the code in the dialer.
2. Press "UMTS".
3. Press "Debug Screen".
4. Press "Phone Control".
5. Press "Network Lock".
6. Press "Perso SHA256 Off".
7. Menu->Back (if the menu button turns up nothing, then just push "back") then wait 30 seconds.
8. Press "NW Lock NV Data Initallliz" then wait around one minute.
9. Reboot the phone and it SHOULD be unlocked. Works great on the SC-06D and SC-03E, no guarantees with the SCL21. And with the SC-03E newer basebands either hid it away or blocked it out so an older one needs to be flashed in before it will show up for unlocking.
Anyone looking to get one should only do so when they've got a trip to Vietnam in their future (to go get it done in a shop there; they still seem to be the only country with shops doing it) or be using au in Japan.
s3 scl21
that`s the first instruction i found when i was browsing the net and tried it but unfortunately it didnt work...... there are still settings in the service menu and all you have to do is click everything that has something to do with the wcdma to gsm..gsm to wcdma or g to wcdma something like that. There`s also a setting that tells somethin like resetting cant remember the exact word and you have to wait for 90 or 60 secs.and restart the phone .and then go back to changing gsm to wcdma .,there`s a setting also that you have to change the frequency .cant remember the step by step guide but because of my eagerness to use the phone i clicked everthing in the service menu and searched every command listed in there.(dont worry it will not brick your phone).After doing all that... this is what happened .. i thought i failed again because the no smoking sign was still there ...so what i did was i clicked the settings and i was so surprised that the menu for mobile network comes out meaning to say that i was able to unlock the settings on the network ..im telling you guys this is what vietnamese unlockers have been doing to unlock this phone that is why they need the phone physically....thats all thanks
And it never prompted for a SIM unlock PIN again? Somebody really needs to go through this carefully and document it; an SCL21 is only 24-25k yen in Japan; I've heard of people paying more to fix broken screens on their international/American S3s.
scl21
as far as i know this particular phone model (s3 scl21) from AU KDDI is not sim locked . The first time i inserted the 3g simcard, it didnt ask for a pin code or anything ...what i could see was the no smoking sign and the simcard icon is there in the apps menu.
it's diffcult to unlock... i can't use in my country... please help

NOTE 3 N900P SPRINT LOST APN,IMEI after Factory Reset! Help S.O.S

Hi XDA ,
Am new in the Forum & First of all thanks to all of you for helping the forum and people. I'm having difficulties and I cant seem to find the way to fix this(its been 2 weeks)
My problem is the following: I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 details:
software version: N900PVPUBMI3
hardware version N900P.00
Status: network: Digital roaming
mobile network type CDMA-AxRTT
Android 4.4.2
KERNEL:[email protected]#1
A friend bought me this phone and called my carrier METROPCS and made them set up the phone so I could use it. they asked him for imei and sim number. He was able to use the phone and 4GLTE(he was doing this to verify it was unlocked) later on he gave me the phone and I had to do the same procedure he did but first I did a factory data reset.
After it I wasn't able to set it up again.
I've noticed that APN SETTINGS has disappeared from the menu, cant search for networks, when I load IMEI it no longer shows the imei but it shows MEID B0000000 and besides all of this I have a message that says SIM CARD INVALID.(but the sim card works perfectly on my other phone)
I will all my life appreciate if you help me with this matter please!
PS. phone is rooted as far as I know(root check on Google play store said it was)
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

You might try installing this app it find/gives all the hidden info on your device http://forum.xda-developers.com/not.../app-one-click-hotspot-enabler-menus-t2816159 it will give you APN's MEID AND IMEI . All you have to do is download to your PC, it my download as a zip file. Just use 7zip and rename it to an apk, then copy and paste it to your internal sd card via your charging cable. Then click on apk and install. Enjoy !!!
BTW your MEID is on a label under the battery !!!

Hi Jim/XDA
I'm still not able to connect to the network. Regarding the IMEI on the back part i know its there however what im saying is that im not able to see my imei through command when i dial *#06#
i as well had this errors today when i woke up:
: LTE:ESM-x EMM-14(ive seen this error when this issue started but it dissapeared and it came back know)
data roaming: you have lost data connectivity because you left your home network with data roaming turned off.
On mobile networks i remember i use to be able to select many(GSM,CDMA,etc) now in network mode i only see 2 options LTE/CDMA,CDMA. Currently LTE/CDMA is selected and if you just look at the network mode option without actually opening it it shows CDMA/LTE/EVDO.
Also when i opened the SCRTN it shows on black screen.
I tried to do some minor changes on Galaxy tools like the SIM UICC UNLOCK all mps,sales,default code on XAS. Factory & keystring ON. MSL/SPC show 222222.
After i did SIM UICC UNLOCK and restarted phone know took away all errors but i see the signal bars faded out and with a little red x on top of it. I've read the manual but im still wondering if there might still be things to set on a particular way that are not specified on it Can you please help me set this up properly?

Is this a Sprint variant? If so, you shouldn't have factory reset the phone. It looked like the phone was previously flashed to MetroPCS and by resetting the phone, it removed all the carrier data.
You will have to reflash the phone to get it working again.

Hey guys, for those who need to edit an APN (Access Point Names), there is a little secret.
Go Settings, and scroll down the list. You will find a search box. Type there Access Piont Names and here it is.
The steps above are neccesary, since APN setting is hidden.

I used dialer code *#*#4636#*#* with inserted SIM card , and I dont know what I did wrong, BUT I can't call anymore...
Will these settings get resetted, when flashing the phone with a ROM?
What do I have to whipe then?
Other suggestions maybe?
When I put the sim card in another phone, I can call with the sim card.....
All help is welcome!!!

Edit:
When wifi turned off, data works....

You may have changed telephony bands to some incompatible value. Maybe you can sort it out flashing from Qualcomm recovery mode. There are many tutorials here which explain how to do it and what you need to download. Meanwhile, try posting here a screenshot of the settings you may have changed, to see if other can find what you did wrong. Do you remember changing anything?
dial that again (*#*#4636#*#*) and scroll down until you find the turn on radio (or off)
there is a dropping list, open and select Unknown.
Then when you finish, make sure that the button says turn off radio ( if it says turn on then press it)
Finally try to select USA band

A10 [SM-A105M] Doesn´t connect to mobile network / can only make emergency calls

Hi, i recently flashed an A10 with the stock firmware (I downloaded the one that matched my country), and everything worked great, except the phone can only make emergency calls. When i insert the SIM card it detects the mobile network, but it doesnt seem to be able to select a network operator (neither manually nor automatically).
I flashed the "free" firmware (the one that isnt locked to any network provider), and It detects the provider that matches different SIM cards and sets up the APN (i also tried manually setting them with official guides), but doesn´t connect to the network and says that it "can´t connect to this network right now, try again later" when i try to select the network operator (IDK if operator is the right word, my phones are in spanish, and dont know which word android uses on english)
The baseband is correct, but when i looked up the IMEI on an IMEI info website, it matched with a NOTE 10 instead of an A10.
This is a friends phone, it was non usable (wouldnt boot), i didnt back up the EFS partition because im a dumbass, but i think the reason it didnt work was because someone else tried to flash a firmware (maybe a note 10 instead of A10), but he says it just stopped working. I am yet to try to flash other network provider´s firmware (the one it originally used), but i was told any that matched my country should work.
WI-FI and mobile network both work, and it detects the SIM card.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
Have you tried with a different SIM card?
