After performing Nandroid restore... NO SIGNAL! - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post. If not I apologize.
I flash alot of roms pretty frequently... seems like almost daily.
I have a solid Nandroid backup of a plain Donut rom (dwangs 1.11). This nandroid backup has never failed me.
Today after flashing Evils nano sense v1 I did a nandroid restore.
Now my phone won't get signal. I checked my APN's and they're fine. but the phone just wont connect to a network. After clicking "tmobile" in network operators I get a "cannot to connect to this network"
Is my SIM card dead? anyone else having this problem?

T-Mobile cellular network outage issue. Just hang out and it will come back.

Ahh ok... Must be because of everyone switching to the contract free cheapo plans! I know I already did!

LOL! Who knows...
Things should be coming back now.

Good to know i was about to wipe and flash another rom now.Been last 30 min. without signal in here.Now i know is not something i did.

Wow! I just did the EXACT same thing and freaked out thinking I blew out my SIM by how many times I flash. LOL
I performed a Nandroid restore and then switched my 2G to 3G and it went out and no matter what I do it won't come back.
I hope it comes back soon.

I was messing with my phone and then when I rebooted i got no signal. I decided to try a coworker's phone with my SIM and his stopped working. I flashed back to stock and still no signal.
All of that was a waste of time
Thanks T-mobile.
...now, to figure out which ROM i want to try next.
Can anyone recommend a good HERO ROM? I have used 3 different ones that end up giving me problems after a few days of using and they become unbearably unstable.

off topic but try Evils Sense Nano 1.1 rom. its the fastest and most stable, but doesnt have all the fun widgets full builds have.

The widgets are definitely the "fun" part of Hero. I just don't like having to deal with Swap or Partitions, etc. I just like flashing and having everything set... like in CM roms.

This thread will most likely get moved or locked, but thanks for responding guys. Ill make sure I check those ROMs out today.

no data......

ive searched around and google but non that fixed my problem.
started this morning. i don't have any 3g icon or any data connection at all.
did a factory reset, no luck. battery pull, no luck.
my wife tbolt works fine with data so i thought it was my sim fried. well i took hers off and installed it on mine no luck. so i put my sim on her tbolt and works great. so could i have a bad data chip or a bad phone? any help would be great..
Is your phone rooted?
Luke
yes. sorry i should have mentioned that.
rooted running synergy rom. just happened early this morning and wierd part is i can pull the battery and once its rebooted i can see 1x then once 3g pops it disconnects it and all i have is just signal bars no 3g icons or anything.

Do a backup and try flashing a different ROM.
yea ive tried doing my backup i saved. nothing. i went to gingeritis, still nothing. asop roms nothing. i even when back to unrooted and stock and still nothing so im guessing somehow someway phone eff up. could it be possible having a new radio mess things up? i have the mr3 or whatever they call it nowdays loaded to it. i just can't think of what would cause it.

ummm the radio would definitely be more of the problem than the ROM.
First try updating your PRL dial *228 - option 2
If still no luck then I suggest trying a different radio or ask around for similar problems with that radio, maybe someone has a fix.
Flash the OTA MR2 radio.
yea. i went back to stock and s-on and upgraded to the newest software and bam my 3g worked which is weird. but i have one coming on the way so i guess ill just keep this stock till then.
mr3 radio i had it since it came out and never gave me any problems until today. i wonder what happened....
should have tried flashing a different radio see if that helped any... i thought it didn't help any since i reflashed mr3 but damn lol sometimes good ideas always come after youve done it lol. thx guys
update.
installed new update. s-on but the 3g icon disappears after it loads buuut when i click on manual software update the 3g icon pops up and starts download but when i click on browser nothing.whats is up with that.
mobile network on settings says " use phone for data connection when wifi is unavailable" my wifi is off and on my wife says connected instead of what mine says. broken phone but why does manual software update still connects to 3g???

Sim card not allowing connections? [Help]

Flashed a few roms on my phone and never bricked it whats so ever. It shows the IMEI, how ever it doesnt match the IMEI it have on on the back of the phone. The phone came with 2.2.1 Froyo and i upgraded it with ODIN using KJ6 2.3.6 GB rom. I can connect to wifi and such. It's not the sim card cause it works with all my friends tmobile phones. I get bars on the phone with the sim card in it. But when i attempt to make a call it says "Not registered to Network" i went to Settings>Wireless and network>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names, i went there to do the APN Manually i tried setting it to Default and it didnt help either.
Anyone know's how to fix this?

Thanks for the quick reply, Does it have to be exactly 10mins? Not to sound like an idiot.
I'd say at least 10 minutes, going longer won't hurt.

Alright , Im giving it 20mins. Hopefully it works. It's been too long and i'm starting to give up on this phone.
Still having a problem, You know any other solutions? I don't wanna have to pay for a new phone lol. If you do can you have it in FULL DETAILS. Cause i want to make sure i have have every thing correct.
I got all day to try to fix this. I don't want to try reflashing things cause i don't know if i can mess it up or cause more problems.
So.... you have flashed a few ROMs..... meaning you have at least ONE nandroid back up from when the phone worked?
If you do... you are good to go. If you don't..... good luck to you. You have what sounds like a generic IMEI.

Well i don't, didn't know i have to. So in other words it's impossible to get this phone back on?
I had the same issue with my phone, it just wouldn't stay on Network, and the SIM would go back and forth from being recognized or not. I flashed back to stock and it still didn't work. The ten minute battery pull was suggested in another thread and a few people swear it works. Mine played up before this was suggested so I never tried it.
I had the same thing happen with my wifes phone and all I could link it to was the Kj6 modem...see link below. I reflashed the whole ROM and it came back.
With my phone I just called T-Mo and told them that since I upgraded to 2.3.6 via Kies that my phone wasn't working properly (Technically true, but a little stretch). I flashed Bhundvens 1click to stock, factory reset, etc...etc... then paid $20 and got a replacement phone via UPS in about 4 days.
I not saying you are having the same problem as I did, but it sounds very similar.
As a side note, the replacement SGS4G (refurb) they sent me absolutely blows my original handset out of the water when it comes to signal strength. I get solid 4G speeds of 5MB+ in my house, where before I only got patchy edge. I was amazed at the huge difference in performance between two supposedly identical handsets.
I hope you can get this remedied without an exchange, but you should be able to get a new one for $20 as a last resort.

Back ups are suggested all over this forum. Now you know. It is not impossible... google 'generic imei' and look at the dozens of ways people have had success and failure trying to remedy it. There are a ton of threads in the SGS 4G forum alone.
And whether you fix it or get a new phone... make a back up of your efs folder FIRST thing along with a nandroid back up. It will save your ass if this ever happens again.

[Q] Is my EVO weird?

Hello everyone. Been on here a while haven't really posted much. Have a shift 4G used to have new update prior to being able to root that so I downverted fully rooted and ran Cryo 7 for a while. Switched to MikShifted-Gv2.1. I love it! It's great. A buddy of mine was looking at my phone the other day and noticed that my phone wasn't using 3G because it wasn't saying 3G when I was at work (state buildings don't let you use their wifi It just has the 1X in the status bar... Just out of curiosity is he right? Am I really just running 2G? Where the heck did my 3G go if it is true?? Am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
1x would be 2g, ev or 3g would be the 3g. Don't know why it would turn off, usually its data or no data. Check your setting to make sure its not disabled. Also check apps like tasker or juice defender if installed or anything similar, They can also control 2g/3g.

There probably isn't anything wrong. All phones switch in and out of signal types, 1x , 3G , etc. MikShifted G, and Supreme Sense are enabled to show you all the different types of signals so that's what your seeing. Most phones do not actually show you when you switch out of 3G. They want you to think your always on 3G at the very least.

What he said. Before I rooted I never saw anything lower than 3g. Since running custom ROMs I now know what I'm actually getting for a connection. Not sure why carriers decide not to give us an accurate portrayal. Oh well.

Thank you guys for the quick responses. So even though my phone ALWAYS says 1X unless I'm in either a 4G area with 4G turned on at home or on WiFi at home I won't exactly know if I'm in 3G or not? My wife has an Optimus S and she is in 3G at our house sitting right next to me. When we go out he phone is so much faster than mine looking online at things cause it says she's in 3G. I was looking through my phone at the Mik Tweeks and there is a place for me to change connection settings (EVDO etc.) Is this the place I need to see if there is a change? I just find it weird that no matter when I look it's always in 1X...

Yes, I've updated everything that I'm able to update on the phone (minus the software update. I think cause I'm rooted) And no dice. I've been fiddling around with it and was looking and it says 1XRTT... What does that mean?
So you don't 3G reception anywhere? Did you Update the Radios?

That's what I'm not sure about. I don't know if I get 3G or not. my status bar when not in either WiFi mode or 4G mode doesn't say 3G or EVDO or anything other than 1X. When I'm in 4G it says 4G when I'm in WiFi I see the WiFi symbol. When not in either of the two it says 1X... And yes, I've updated my radios. I check every 2 or so weeks to see if there is an update. Updated the radio yesterday.
If you've checked in several areas and never get 3G. What I would do is re-wipe, and re-flash. If it still doesn't work correctly try flashing a different Rom to see if it works correctly.
Okay so I tried to update the PRL and wiped my phone and tried to use the ROM again, still to no avail. I'm going to try newSense ROM hoping that it will help. I have a question though:
I cleared my cache and Dalvik cache. Is there something else I'm missing? I Thought I wiped my phone back to stock (assuming that meant getting rid of the ROM), but the ROM remained on my phone. Did I miss a step or was to supposed to happen?

Before you Flash a Rom, it's best IMO to do a FULL Wipe. There is a guide linked in my Sig. Read and follow the guide, and you should be all good. Also, if you did not do a FULL Wipe before Flashing MikShifted G that could be what's causing your issues. What do you mean by taking it back to stock BTW? Like Factory Stock? Or something else?

I'm curious as to if I can go back to the stock rom and remain rooted then try it all over again (as far as flashing ROM again.)
Then main thing I'm trying to fix is my 3G. I would love to have it again or at least know when I am. My wife's phone is far less superior than the Shift but when we are out and about her 3G works and kicks the pants off of my 1X any time of the day.
So... wiped EVERYTHING x3 as instructed, flashed new ROM (newSENSE) flashed just fine. Updated radio to the 1.8XXX, that worked just fine as well... STILL don't have a 3G signal, still says 1X.... Ahhh I'm getting frustrated!!! What do you guys think?

At this point I would RUU back to 2.2. Start the whole Rooting process over. RUU'ing should correct most any issue you may be having. It doesn't solve everything, but it will give you a better idea of what's going on. So RUU back to 2.2. Check the signal. Then Re-root, and check the signal. If all is still good flash a Rom, and check the signal.

Okay, I'm ready to give in and restore back to 2.2 I can't find a valid link. I had the zip file once, but no longer do. Can anyone help?
So I used the RUU and went back to stock, re rooted my phone (3 times in one night) and everytime I would root it, the 3G sign would remain, but as soon as I flashed ANY ROM on it it always went back to the 1X. Each time I rooted I used a different ROM so I give up. I'm just going to have to leave it as it is. I don't know what else to do
Thanks for all everyone's help trying to trouble shoot this. If anyone has had this problem and found a way to fix it, please let me know. Thanks XDA
Did you try a Stock Rooted Rom? Like the latest Rom, just Rooted. I believe Sparksco has one.

Cannot Connect to AT&T Network (Neither Voice Nor Data)

For some reason I cannot connect to AT&T's network for voice/data. I had been running MIUI for about 3 months and all was good. I came back from a trip Thursday and the phone wouldn't find a network after turning off airplane mode, but rebooting seemed to fix it. However, today I cannot get it to connect at all.
I have tried:
Wiping cache/davlik cache
Fixing permissions
Tried searching for a network operator through settings->mobile network->network operators, got nothing
Wiping user data and switching to ZEUS Build 6
Tried searching for a network operator again
Went back to 100% stock with GTG's Ultimate Unbrick
Still nothing for network operator under "Available networks" (Default setup is greyed out)
I'm going to guess either my SIM or 3G chip burned out? I was using the phone heavily the past few days with a ton of GPS stuff to get around Atlanta and it did get pretty hot on the car dash. I'll try taking it to an AT&T store tomorrow (ugh) but am open to any suggestions before I do so .
There are a few options I would consider:
1. Go to the apn and set up a new apn and save it. Select it and then reboot. There are a few floating around. Check my how to thread in the q/a. I posted one there. Make sure you create one and then save it.
2. Try flashing a different modem.
3. Take out the external micro sd. Back up your stuff from the internal sdcard. Factory reset from in the ROM. Warning: a factory reset from within the ROM will erase EVERYTHING, including pictures. Make sure you save everything first. Reboot. And if that doesn't work, odin with a re partition pit file or use one of the heimdall 1-click and then do a reset again.
4. Possibly remove the Sim and clean it. I've heard the Sim socket is very fragile and breaks easily. Use caution. You can always have the att guys do it and let them break it.

he said he did try flashing another rom and odining back to stock. if that doesnt work, nothing will. hopefully you still have a warranty.
Already restored to stock (and again from within the stock rom)... Forgot about my pictures :crying:
Tried I997UCKL2 and I997UCLB3 modems, with and without custom APNs.
Tried cleaning the SIM
Funnily enough I do get service bars (4/5) after the phone has been on for about a minute, but no HSPA+ icon and still can't make calls/MMS/internet (calls are about 5s of silence followed by an abbreviated dialing tone, then "Call Ended"). Yup, I think it's borked... Guess it's time for an S3! Thanks for the help though.

Sorry to hear about your pictures. I tried to warn you.
The last thing i can think of is to leave your battery out overnight. And then put it back tomorrow.
It sounds like it's hardware related though.
(Different ROM like miui and zeus have their own custom build.prop ril settings and apn. These potentially can mess with your phone connection if the partition messes up.
I wanted to make sure it was not a partition screw up. A double flash in heimdall uckj4 or uclb3 with boot loader checked or one of the Odin un-brick using a pit file would have clear this. Sounded like you did this already. Another user have reported clearing their efs in odin. I would only try this if you have backed up your efs position, either in root explorer or zen tool kit.)
Again, sounds like hw...

Well when I transferred my sim to my old dumb phone I left my Infuse off (about 3 hours). I just tried it again for kicks and miraculously it works perfectly now! Now I get to reinstall everything again (yay...), but I'm wondering if my sim slot is on its way out or something... Not sure why it would suddenly start working again.
Oh well, time to try out Zeus (MIUI was a little too buggy for me).
Thanks again all... hopefully it doesn't die on me again!

Now I get to reinstall everything again (yay...), but I'm wondering if my sim slot is on its way out or something... Not sure why it would suddenly start working again.
Oh well, time to try out Zeus (MIUI was a little too buggy for me).
Thanks again all... hopefully it doesn't die on me again!

Good to hear.
If it starts to act wonky again, try a different battery. It is possible the heat you described may have damage the lithium cell. Idk..
Ebay has them for about $4 free shipping. Look for a usa shipper...2-4 days
For some reason this happens to me sometimes. I'm unsure myself. What I do to fix it is turn data on and off and then reboot. I do that a few times and then it starts working.

So after three different roms, several factory wipes, and all sorts of voodoo magic, it was a bad sim card.
Shame... I kinda wanted an S3 .

Huge Network Issues (TMO)

I just recently completed a move from Vegas to Phoenix. Upon arriving i saw that my mobile network just constantly bounced from edge to none to 4g to 3g and nothing ever above 2 bars. no matter where i go, thats the way it is. even when other people with TMO are right next to me and have perfect service. i finally bit the bullet and went into the tmo store and basically the guy told me that i had to get a new phone. My current rom is paranoid android but it does the same on AOSP MIUI and sense 4 viper rom. havent tried any others because i figure i have most of my bases covered there. ive flashed every combination of radio and RIL possible and it does the same thing. when i went in, they gave me a new sim card because they said my sim card was "2G" but seemed to pick up 4g just fine in vegas with 0 issues.
did my phone just really magically break while driving i guess?
another note: it seems worst when sending text messages, like ill recieve one with 2 bars of 3g, type it out, hit send, right after i hit send it just drops the service and says message cannot be delivered. i just have to keep getting it sent back and send it again until it finally goes through. this issue is very very frustrating. thanks for any help you guys can give me, i do want to get a new phone but need this one to work until i can afford it. oh yeah, newest firmware if that matters but i hadnt even updated it before i got out here, it was just one of things i tried to fix it. NOTHING has worked or even helped a little bit.
You and I live in different ends of the US but we seem to have the same issue. My wife has a Sensation also and has good signal most places when I can be right beside her and have no signal, just like right now, I will be lucky to get this to send. I too have tried several radios and RIL's also. I got some advice from mf2112 a short while back. I am just now going to look into it further. Check the pins that make connection to the back cover and make sure they all are making good connection. I am checking mine as soon as I get home, I am sick of not having signal when I know I should.
Hey guys i have an advice the same happened with me and i installed the official ruu with european radio and ril and it just went fine from there and after that i installed many roms(i lost the count anyway)it worked fine 4me try it out bestof luck

I just checked my connections and even lightly cleaned the dust off of them to see if maybe that was the issue. actually seems like it helped a little but not enough to solve the issue. it was definitely worth a shot though. might be placebo effect tho...

are you talking about flashing the actual RUU that says "mod edit: do not flash" or are you talking about the 3.33 firmware from europe? i flashed this firmware and it didnt help my issues. im wondering if i shouldnt try to go back to 100% stock or something this is very frustrating. the guy at the store told me "you know, when you flash things over and over sometimes stuff just breaks" which doesnt make any sense to me. every phone ive ever had i could flash as i please. and i wasnt even heavily flashing anything on this one until i started having this issue.
I have done exactly what the poster has done.
I have done everything... here's what I know
The issue is only from cm9 and aokp.. try flashog hyper nonsense and you shouldn't have issues.. problem is u lose all the aokp settings
It seems.like the issues flux in out.. one day it will work.. one day it wont.. sometimes I.wonder if the tower you are connected to.makes a difference
No,.it.doesn't break from.flashing it.over and over.. the storage is flash so it doesn't have a limit
Regards
