So I have a Note 2 and a HTC one, for about three weeks I used my HTC one and then i switched back to my note 2. Yesterday I wanted to use my HTC one but every time I insert the sim card I get a no service message. what can I do to fix this?
I did not root the phone BTW.
Have you found a resolution? I just ran into the same problem. Phone was working great, then one Sunday afternoon it just stopped getting a signal. It's not the SIM as it works fine in my old SGSII (had to make SIM adapter). I am rooted and unlocked and running non stock recovery but still on stock kernel/radio. Haven't contacted HTC yet for obvious reasons.
I've had this happen a lot with my phone on tmobile. I live in a concrete basement apartment where there's no reception and if the phone goes more than 15 hours without any signal I almost always(80%ish) have to call tmobile and have them deactivate/reactivate the sim from their end.
A fix you can try that they swear "usually works" is go to settings/mobile data/network operators/search automatically
If that doesn't work then try settings/mobile data/access point names/menu/reset to default
Apparently these settings can be reset pretty easily when the phone doesn't connect to a network for a bit, but all this might just be a tmobile thing
I have a bit different problem - I bought HTC One from T-mobile and unlocked it. I tooked it with me to Europe and device does work with american sim (ATT and TMO) but it wont recognize any of my national carriers. Insterting simcards(perfectly working) does not give me reception or anything. Sim cards are the same thing in EU and US I think - also those are GSM phones. I have friends having same problems with their S4 from AT&T in Europe. Does anybody know something to help make this device work?
OP - this happened to my Wife's phone for no apparent reason one day. I simply removed & reinserted the SIM and rebooted a couple of times, hasn't had a problem since.

I changed my SIM for a new one. Seems like a new SIM cards are a bit different from the old ones because after I did that I had no problems

Same problem here. I am on paranoid android though so maybe that has something to do with it. When I go into the settings to connect to the t mobile network, it says "your sim card is not authorized" or something like that. Maybe it's cuz I haven't paid my bill for 2 months? Lol but I don't think that's reason for them to block my sim :/

I had the same problem and I had to restart my phone sometimes several times a day, sometimes I had to remove the sim card enclosure and reinsert it in order for my phone to get a signal. So I contacted HTC and they told me that I probably had a defective sim card enclosure so they sent me a new one. After I installed the new sim card enclosure with the same sim card I had before the problem went away. I've been without any problems for the past four months or so since I got the replacement sim enclosure
type *#*#4636#*#* -> phone information -> make sure GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto selected and Turn off radio
If you see turn on radio click that to turn on the radio. Is some cases the radio gets turned off and a reboot doesnt fix. This is the only way I know to recover it.
I've this same issue!
Did anybody found a solution?? I already tried everything... but seems like the phone is not blacklisted.. in case it is, something I can do? besides change my IMEI.
Thanks!!

Make sure your Apn is set up correctly. If you go to settings>Mobile Data>APN you can see your apn and compare it to other tmoblie ones

Radio chip
I wonder if anyone can help please. My M7 can't connect to the network. The radio isn't turned off, I checked using the code given by Shane_pcs, so I know it is a hardware problem. I suspect the radio chip has worked loose somehow and isn't making contact like it should. Any tips on how to resolve this please? I have seen a tear down of the M7, but don't know if anyone on here has attempted to secure the radio chip before...not even sure what the chip itself looks like. Any ideas please? Thank you.

Hi folks, can anyone please help me with this problem?
My brother in law has asked me to look at his S740. He has tried several o2 SIM cards (UK) in this phone but always gets told there is no signal.
Not only that, but there is a symbol where the strength meter should be that isn't documented in the user guide.
He has also tried my o2 (3G) sim and a Vodafone sim, both UK.
Any advice gratefully recieved. We have tried several hard resets also.
Thanks
This means it's looking for signal. My guess: Still SIM-locked?

Not sure if it's SIM locked as there is a menu to select which carrier to use.
It reads the SIM correctly and sets it all up for o2, but just doesnt get any signal.
Does anyone know where the GSM antenna is on these? Maybe its a bad connection.
UPDATE:
I've had a mail back from HTC that recommends I send it in for repair, lol.
Now do I take it they are robbing buggers or do I take it that the icon is an indicator of a hardware fault??
Hmmmm, dilemma. lol
Are there any more suggestions on what it may be?
Has anyone successfully taken one of these apart?
it may be because of a hardware error...try to connect to a wifi network...if it impossible to find a wifi network then it is due to a harware problem.Most likely because the FR coaxial cable is out of its possision...download the service manual and see how to fix it.

Hi sasiskas, it conects fine to my wireless network at home. I take it from your response that the cable serves a double purpose.
I downloaded the service manual so I could take a look, but only got as far as removing the 4 screws at the back. lol, I couldn't figure out how to get it off, lol
I'm still stuck at the assumption that it is indeed SIM locked, and so will try to find a suitable card to try out.

Try contacting with your phone's provider (shop,e-bay seller whoever it is) and ask him details about the sim.Good luck.

I would appreciate any input whether you have success or not, it just may spark an idea off.
I cant get in touch with any sales or provider as it was gifted to my bro in law. He's not that bothered about it but would like to have it working if he can.

Hey! I think I know the solution to your problem...I had exactly the same problem when I hardReseted my phone.
Go to "Start-settings-Phone-Band Select"
and then select
1.Network type : Auto
2.Band Type : "Euro" if you live in Europe, "US" if you live in USA , or "Japan" if you live in Japan.
Good luck...Let us know if it worked!

Yes that is a good suggestion because the phone will display that icon if it can't find a *usable* network, be it that the SIM doesn't allow it or if the bands don't match the selection on the phone or the bands are not usable by the phone hardware etc.
I would suggest downloading & running HTC Field Test (fieldtest.exe) with & without a SIM installed, with each network & band setting & see if it shows any towers or signal. (Normally you want Auto for both but you may not have that option or you might prefer to set to a KNOWN working band to conserve battery & minimize searching) If should show something even without SIM or with SIM lock because it's supposed to support emergency calls either way. If it shows signals with SIM but you still have same no service icon then it's likely SIM locked (although the phone should alert you to that fact) so odds are the phone hardware, rom or settings do not support whatever signals are available to you. (Btw if field test shows N/A for all the values you need to app unlock your phone)
Hope that helps.
Bill
can you share a link with HTC Field Test?Thnx
Search is your friend.

Hey all I'm having a very similar problem.
Had my HTC for some months now but in the past few days I've found that my network signal is becoming very unpredictable.
I'm also on O2 and I used to have a pretty contstant H (I presume HSDPA) connection.
Howeever im finding now the phone with go from H to 3G to GPRS to E to no signal in the course of 5 mines and round and round again!
Its very annoying as it means I cant make / received calls or texts fluently and even cut me off on a phone call too.
However usually on phone calls it will keep me connected ok till I hang up and then go to no signal.
I've checked the wireless and it is picking up networks..
Any other suggestions? I will try the field test tomorrow...
PS I know its not the network as my work blackberry is O2 and is not having this issue..
Cheers in advance!
Well, just to close my input on this thread.
I tried various ROM's available from this site and none worked.
I did try the band selection settings but still a no go.
I did have limited success but overall, nothing. The phone has now gone back to the person who asked me to look into it and to my knowledge he is going to sell it to one of these phone reclaim companies.
I did check and one place, I think through the post office, is offering £80 ish so not bad I suppose.
Anyway, thank you to all who have made suggestions and wotnot. Personally I'm still happy with an old Nokia 6300 and my Wizard (Mini-S)
Thanks folks.

Hi all,
First time poster, long time follower!!
I'm hoping someone can help me here because i have a real headache with my galaxy s2.
When i got it at Christmas everything was perfect. But two weeks later i suddenly lost my 3g. Phone works fine on 2g (except for the slow speed), but i contacted my carrier 3Ireland and they said everything is fine on their end. My APN is perfect, i've tried toggling airplane mode, entering codes, data package checks. You name it and i've tried it.
When i force my phone to select 3g it looses all signal and i have to restart my phone and quickly go back into settings to choose 2g or i will loose signal again.
This is the following on my phone.
Android version 2.3.5
Baseband version I9100XXKI4
Kernel Version [email protected] #2
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKI8
I've being reading about modem/radios lately, is that just the baseband? Could that be my problem. I'm a noob at this kinda thing.I just want my 3g to come back.
All help is greatly appreciated. Look forward to hearing from you all.
Thanks.

It would be interesting to know your SGS2 is white version as well as mine.
I have to say that I have another SGS2 but old black version which is perfectly functional on the same 3 network. After playing a very long times with both phones settings, I have a feeling that the core of the problem lies in the "APN type" setting. Changing it's content affects how it connects to network. I have no deep understanding of what is happening behind the scene while changing this option, but there is a possibility that the portion of file system responsible for it somehow been damaged.
It would be great if the developers could tell us if this part of the Android file system is changed while flashing different firmware/radio, or it is persistent?

Dial *#*#4636#*#*, go to phone information and see the settings for the radio. It should be at the bottom. Google the settings for the GSM, WCDMA. Mine is currently 'GSM auto PRL'. 'WCDMA Preferred'is also a better option for 3G network.

Thank you. I fiddled with GSM, WCDMA settings as you said, but no luck.
What is even more interesting is if the network mode is set to "WCDMA only", then I'm not even able to register on 3 network. After an attempt to manually connect to 3 via "Network Operators" menu, it says "Unable to connect. Try later".
Also after connecting via WCDMA, and then reverting back to GSM, the GSM dies as well. The only solution is to restart the phone.
If it is a software bug, then I do not understand why this problem did not go away after flashing different Rom with radio.

Samsung: never again
guys....carriers can't sell a device that is advertised as a 3g capable phone. Call them and spit "misleading advertising" mixing "give me a phone that I can actually use" words. You could also add "Release me from my contract, I'm moving to other 3g WORKING carrier".

T-Mobile USA?
If yes, you're probably in a market that they have not yet re-farmed the 1900mhz frequency for HSPA+ yet. The i9100 doesn't get 1700mhz, and the majority of T-Mobile USA's network uses the AWS band, which requires both 1700 and 2100mhz to work for 3g/"4g".
Well I got hold of my hTC One X+ and imported it directly from Clove.co.uk to Pakistan. I got the phone yesterday i.e. November 4, 2012. Picked my home wifi signal downstairs (my wifi router is upstairs). Worked fine, synced everything. I operated the phone initially without the SIM card. I got the SIM card cut (for conversion) to micro, and the phone worked fine.
Then I had two issues:
1. Suddenly all the signals from my service provider (mobilink) vanished. A reboot, turn off and restart and SIM re-insertion helped.
2. my wifi is disappeared, cannot connect to any wifi signal (cant connect to my HTC desire hotspot) or cant leech neighbors open wifis.
Have read the forums. didnt dared try to upload the custom rom / radio of one-x to this set.
so thats a hands-on review in the first few hours of hTC One X+.... is there any one who have the device and had the same issues? Posted hTC support too. Will be contacting clove.co.uk for support too?
factory resetted the phone... again picked my home connection from the start, but again showing disconnected wifi after full configuration is done. No wifi connections shown? probably a software issue?

I have narrowed down the issue to my SIM card. After one factory reset, I didn't insert my SIM card module, and went ahead with the settings. The phone till the end showed the all the available networks around me. The moment I inserted my SIM card module, the wifi networks just disappear and wont come back.

Well I will switch the wifi network standard to UK, as the set was purchased from UK. However the issue is whenever I insert the SIM card of cell operator. The wifi goes dead, as i cant see any network, and wifi going for interrupted scanning. though the network is available, and until and unless i go for factory reset, the wifi doesnt come back. I believe its region locking issue with wifi, i guess i have to wait till i get a proper WWE based RUU for One-X+
suggestions welcome. Although I have a return ticket open from the supplier.
HTC One X+ Wifi issues on sim insertion
I bought my HTC One X+ a couple of days ago from the UAE. But for some reason I can't get the wifi to work with a pakistani service provider (ufone). When I reset the phone and inserted a vodafone sim instead which had roaming activated, the Wifi worked fine.
I have found a couple of solutions but they both involve rooting my phone. Wouldnt that leave my warranty void? I want to be on the safe side, and so am cautious about rooting it. Are there any alternative solutions? Would claiming my warranty help?

Did you get you problem solved? If yes, how
I've fix it by work around
I've got my hox+ from UK, and currently operated in Egypt (vodafone), I was having wifi problem, it's only connected for 2-3 minutes then no connectivity in the meanwhile it shows it's connected to the wifi, I did a factory reset then I've skipped account registration once it's started, e.g google account, facebook account and so, then I've added one by one from the accounts in the settings, and the wifi is working fine now
Thanks Yasser,
Did you leave it connected to wifi after factory reset, or you didn't add wifi till the time you had connected your google accounts. A detail step by step work around will be appreciated.

i had the same wifi problems for months... ATT just released an update though which solved everything for me! My phone is now living up to its full potential woot! get the firmware update it doesnt say what it does besides "wifi bug fixes" but it is finally working great for me!
It seems that everytime I plug my phone to the charger for few hours, it goes into Emergency calls only mode where I have no data and no calls incoming nor outgoing. Only way to solve it is to restart the phone or turn Airplane mode on and off to reset. Is this a common problem ? Could it have happened from unlocking my boot loader and rooting ?
I'm considering switching to the custom ROM "the base" in order to maybe solve this
Well I think this is new. Could just be a bad sim card. I don't have this problem and I haven't seen anyone else mention having it. I'd go to where ever I got it and have them swap the sim and if that didn't work the phone.
I would open the sd card/sim card cover and make sure sim is inserted fully. It should lock into place and need to be pushed in further to eject. I used a paperclip to push it in.

I second using a paperclip to make sure the SIM seats properly.

I actually had this happen to me like two days ago. I had just texted someone before walking to the lower level of a mall to go shopping. I took a look at my phone a little later and my phone was stuck on Emergency Calls with no data coming in. The carrier on the status bar wasn't even there anymore. Restarted my phone and all was fine. Not sure what caused it.
I've had this the last two days in areas I've always had great service. Wonder what's up with it.

Base rom has this enabled, or you need to be rooted and edit build prop.
I had this happen last week. I did the airplane mode toggle to clear it... but it freaked me out for a few minutes.
Running The Base, sk8r's kernel during install, no change to the LTE setting, no crazy mods applied.
I also sit in a nearly-dead-zone at work, and I have lost the data connection. Moving into the clear does not fix the issue. Reboot has been required.
This Android App Might Help
I had just the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S2 with UK mobile provider Three.
I eventually wrote an app called which reconnects whenever it detects that the phone has got locked into Emergency Calls Only.
Maybe it will be of use to you. Search Google Play for "Cell Reconnect". Seems I'm not allowed to post links here yet...
Figured it out for my phone
I got a refurbished LG optimus G E970 from a seller online and had this issue the second day of using it. I checked to see if it was the SIM or SD card by putting them into my old phone, but that wasn't it because the old phone still functioned properly making calls/messages. I even did a factory reset on the phone. Still didn't work. I finally just decided to change the mobile networks to my provider's GSM network and it worked. Not sure why it didn't work in the first place since I never changed the network, but this did the trick.

Hello. Could you please elaborate on how you fix that issue? I'm currently on T-mobile and my unlocked AT&T LG E980 is losing signal like crazy, just briefly loses signal and goes into emergency mode only. It is so annoying though. Would really appreciate any insight on it. Thanks.

Will try it. Thannks..
Yesterday I bought an i717, an unlock code so I can get it working on T-Mobile, and put the newest Cyanogenmod nightly on it.
I noticed that my data speed was stuck on Edge and found out with some searching that this was common problem. I went to this thread and have followed it's instructions but now I've hit a wall and can't figure it out.
I've flashed both the radios that should work but am getting no working results. Can anyone offer me a hand with this? I would greatly appreciate it.
I don't have T-Mobile but suggest try different ROM. Also make sure have most recent twrp

I'll give that a shot, thanks
Thanks for the reply. I tried all that, new TWRP and all kinds of different ROMs but the problem persists. I did notice one thing however, and that was when the phone had the ROM flashed on it, brand new (like just after a factory reset), 4G worked really well. That is up until I turned the wifi on. Turning the wifi back off, and/or restarting, and/or clearing cache and dalvik will not get the 4G connection back. I'm at a loss. Also if I try flashing a different radio I'll have the disappearing APN problem. So for now I'm stuck with EDGE.
What other options could fix this? Could the build prop be making a fuss? I don't really know where to go.
It sounds like your sim isn't a 4g provisioned sim. The APN would stick if the sim was appropriate.

I think my SIM is provisioned, it works fine in any other phone from tmobile. in my gs2 I had it worked fine. that was a few days ago.

Tho I guess a new SIM card could be worth a shot.
This is "The Answer Post"
I got it! It was in the mobile network options. Since this is an ATT phone with an ATT radio I had to think a little differently, since I'm used to T-Mobile settings. The "Data Roaming" and "National Data Roaming" check boxes were unchecked. Again, being an ATT radio I guessed that these needed to be on. Once doing that I went down to network operators to manually select "T-Mobile" as my network. Once I did, voila! 4G connectivity now works like a charm.
Just wanted to let the internet know, in case someone else needs this.
Good save!
