[Q] No signal or No service on Samsung Galaxy S

I noticed that my galaxy was sluggish & decided to preform the solution here: hemorrdroids.net, speed up your Samsung galaxy S
now in the process, i got it wrong several times whiles flashing with the odin. when I finally got it right and reinstalled the firmware, the phone displays a no service notification, but show the name of the network chip in it. no signal bars as if it were locked. I bought it as unlocked phone. now I cant even search for a single network in my country. when u do a manual search, it returns nothing. if u try the dialer it says not registered to network..
does anyone know how to get my signal a GPS working?? please!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm... I've got the same problem as you... Flashed docs to my Galaxy S Yesterday and now it show no service notification.... Anyone who have a got an idea?

I am also facing the same problem. Any one who has solved it ?

Got the same problem, from 1 day i have notification (no service)

Got the same problem plz plz some one helpp

Not sure if it's the same problem you folks are having, but there's a thread on here entitled "Problem with Airplane Mode on Epic after installing midNight ROM" that describes a problem with no signal after a ROM flash, and a solution via using Odin to update just the modem.
I would post a link, but the forum here won't let me because I don't have enough posts. Your mileage may vary, but the symptoms sound similar so it might give you a place to start even if the fix doesn't fix you.

I too am having the same problem. It seems that my Phone (Galaxy SC-02b) does not recognize the modem/internal antena.
I installed the Darky's Rom on it, and it runs great. Except the signal part. I can flash it back to the original, but I want to see if I can make it work.
I think it's just a matter of picking out the correct modem tar, but I can't find the right one. My phone is a little bit odd, It's a Japanese Galaxy, so not sure if I can find it here. Unfortunately my Japanese is not good enough to go scouring the japanese forums.
Thanks for any help.

Hey Yefimenko what 3G bands are used in Japan 1900/850 or maybe 900/2100 or 1700/2100 ? Can you find that out ? then you need to flash modem that supports that , Europe support 900/2100 US/Canada/Australia 850/1900 and AWS 1700/2100 Tmobile US /Wind? mobilicity Canada

We've been through all of this before the Japanese phones will only work with the Japanese kernel. Symptoms are usually sin not recognized and no radio signal.

Either the phone.apk is bad or the modem is incompatible.
You could try the http://romkitchen.org/ and make an update with different modem only.

If your Samsung Galaxy S displays no network/no signal, or emergency calls only, try the following things:
1. flash the device again with the modem image (download the firmware of your device from samfirmwares.com, delete everything from the .tar file except modem.bin, and then flash this file to the phone with Odin (you can get Odin and instructions from that site too)
2. maybe your nv_data.bin file or /efs directory got corrupted, make a backup of the folder, then simply delete nv_data.bin, it will be recreated for you on Galaxy S.
For this, you’ll need root. If you have a root-enabled kernel, like the Voodoo lagfix kernel, you only have to install the Superuser app and Busybox on the phone, download the Android SDK to your PC, install platform-tools in the SDK manager, go to the platform-tools directory and start adb shell.
In the shell, type su, wait for the Superuser prompt to appear on the phone (if it does not appear, open the Superuser app and try executing su again), enable root access for the command. Now go to /efs, copy everything to for example /sdcard/efs, then rm nv_data.bin.
Reflashing the device with a kernel and checking “phone EFS clear” in Odin also works (make sure you made a backup of the EFS folder just in case).
3. you can try changing the CSC (to XEO for Europe): enter *#272*imei# on the phone tab. Note: this will reset your phone to factory settings, so make sure you did a clockworkmod backup before this. Incorrect CSC setting may cause MMS not working also.
4. check if you inserted the SIM card correctly
Thanks

this solution works for me and thanks alot many many thanks

maybe i've got a solution for the no service probleme. i tried this code *2767*3855# and my phone works normal now
i hope it works for you guys

No Network after change of CSC - is there a recovery strategy?
SOLVED
======
Asked around and it goes like this: 2.1 + market = no signal, (2.2 or 2.3) + market = no problem
Solution is UPGRADE from 2.1. to 2.2 or better - I hope this will help anyone else with the same problem.
If you can't do it yourself, any mobile shop will for a small fee.
Symptoms
========
Changed CSC from KSA to XSG with code *#272*HHMM# for 2.1 (no Market in KSA mode)
Galaxy S GT-I9000 now shows blue circle with diagonal in notification area at top of screen.
Settings > Wireless and network > Mobile networks Network mode > Network operators > Search Networks or Select Automatically produces no response - finds no networks.
Dialpad dial a number => "Not registered on network"
Coincidental hardware failure seems very unlikely but not impossible I suppose.
What I would like to know is if there is a recovery strategy from here?
Even if it includes installing a complete new firmware? (and possibility to revert to original if required for warranty)
Device does not respond to "3-finger salute" (volume-home-power).
I am not confident that a warranty is worth all that much in this part of the world. It may be quicker and more effective to do it myself.
Further details of history and phone info below.
I will be very grateful if anyone can help me out
History
=======
Phone purchased in Saudi Arabia (KSA). Worked fine with pre-paid SIM (mobily) voice, data, sms, wifi.
Phone also worked fine with a pre-paid sim (cosmote whatsup) in Greece - voice, data, sms, wifi.
However, since phone was purchased in KSA, Android Market was not installed. Found a Market.apk and installed that. Installs but doesn't actually work.
Found code for changing CSC (*#272*HHMM# for 2.1, *#272*[IMEI No]# for 2.2) 2 colleagues had success and no problems with this with a Tab and 2 Ss, albeit with 2.2. The code looks worth a try on 2.1 so I gave it a go.
Had to remove the side-loaded Market before the code would run and changed the CSC from KSA to XSG.
Market pops up on the screen and works fine.
BUT no network. Network name shows in the Notifications though. The GR SIM shows "(No Service)"
Factory reset, returning CSC to KSA do not help.
The mobily SIM works fine in other phones but no known good SIM works in this phone.
Mobily tech support (in store visit, usually commpetent guy who knows me) is completely flummoxed and asks me if I have a warranty.
So now I have a very compact WiFi only tablet

Solution to your problem
Hi All,
This happened to me before and I was as frustrated as you and when I was about to give up, I tried one last restoration, but only this time I did it correctly. After that, I restored 5 different versions of Samsung Galaxy S stock ROM back to my Samsung Galaxy S. One of these versions were Chinese, and everything was in Chinese.
Samsung Galaxy S had no signal was because the modem file was missing while you were performing the restoration.
Now, all you have to do is go to this page and follow the instructions to restore the Stock ROM back to your Samsung Galaxy S.

same problems
Hi guys, I have same problem. But a litle diffirent.
When I use 2.3.6 firmware version it's work well no problem. But when I use 4.x.x Rom it says no network and no imei. If I use 4.x.x om pluged the charge my device ,I see gsm company and imei number. It's very interesting. I think , electricty not enough for my device. Maybe Its hardware problems. I 'dont any idea.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks.

[Q] Sim Unlock (Carrier Locked - Philippines)

Hi All -
I just got a 2nd hand P6200 but it is locked -
what i would like to know is this .. .
#1 - Will it be UNLOCKED just by installing custom rom?
#2 - Or do i still need to get the app from google play which is Galaxy Sim Unlock by Spocky?
If the option #2 is the only available or possible solution to this, will it be reverted back to sim lock if i reboot my tab or if i installed a new rom?
Because i have a Galaxy Y which was locked before i installed a custom rom.
I rooted it, installed custom rom and since then, i was able to insert different carrier's sim card without getting anymore app.
Thanks a lot

Docomo SC-01F (SIM Free) unlocked "Mobile Network not available"

Hello Guys, at first thank for all people for this forum, helpe us a lot. First time posting here.
I bought a Docomo Galaxy Note 3 SC-01F, then I wnet to Docomo Shop to unlock the SIM, the unlock worked well. I put by Odin the International rom to use the phone in my language and used in Brazil with the local SIM operator, all things worked well. So now I returned to Japan, and took a AU KDDI SIM in AU shop. The seller put the SIM, and configured the data transfer(OK) but the call number failed(Mobile Network not Available), he tried at least 3 hour. So I went to my house and tried by odin put the original docomo firmware, but the result is the same, the network data is ok, but call function return the same error. In the place of antena signal show a circle look like prohibit.
I tried other firmwares more recents provided buy this site, no result.
The IMEI is the same in the back of device.
Put the Access Point data provided by AU seller.
Tried to search the network, just show docomo and softbank, sometimes show the AU, but I try to connect give failed.
Try to automatic, failed.
I dont know what can I do more. Please anyone have some idea?
The problem is I cant connect to AU KDDI provider to make calls "Mobile Network NOT Available".

The company name is AU KDDI of Japan. When I bought the SIM, the seller gave to me these data to configure after I flash rom by odin. Because the seller did not got success in international ROM.
I did a flash by Odin the original firmware from the original company(Docomo) and put the data provided by the seller.

no problem, we are here to help.
im sure the problem is the phone, since sims, networks andphones are very different the all have some conectivity issue when you unlock it, my best advice is go to the and see if they can help you if not then try rooting it and flashing a custom rom for the phone and im sure that will help you most of the time

Well after the root you must check if device is bootloader unlock if so look for a method to unlock it, then flasha custom recovery and flash a custom rom.
Well is basically a firmware with a bucnh of customization, tweaks and mods, it also lets you use your phone software as yours not as the company whants you to use it. There you can use customs roms from other phones that are compatible( ported roms) and try them it can include fixes or be more compatible with the network

I understood and studying about it.
The first step i got it: ROOT THE ANDROID 5.0
I used the method below, and checked if success in "root checker" and other app, its OK.

https://androidmtk.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-3-docomo-sc-01f-on-5-0
The second step I cant do it: Bootloader check
The guides in internet say this: *#*#7378423#*#*, but in my phone I cant use the dial, show "Mobile Network Not Available"
Any other Idea or tutorial to follow? I saw other methods but cant understand.
My objective is: Try to put the firmware of my sim card owner(AU KDDI), to see if I can use the Dial.

No way. Most of sim free or sim unlocked smartphonese will never work with au kddi sim cards>

Galaxy Note2 GT-N7105 LTE ( t0lte ) - suddenly sim locked again ???

Note 2 LTE - suddenly sim locked again ???
hint: only read the Bold letters to make it short
ok, im allmost ready to give up this time...dont know how many of these threads i read allways to find a sullution to my problem, but it seams i finally have to ask for help myself.
Yeah, this is my first post, but ive been arround for a while, anyway this time, i need your active suggestions...
the History:
The phone: Samsung Galaxy Note2 GT-N7105 LTE ( t0lte ): initially locked to the Austrian Carrier A1, but i bought it allready unlocked.
Back then 2013 managed to flash and root via clockworkmod and wanam light rom, without triggering knox - thanks to you guys in here...chears again for that...
I hardened the system quite good and gave it to my mums - not touching it for years -or hardly, finally 2016 seamed to be time for an update. Didnt care much for the knox anymore and simply updated recovery to TWRP 3.0.2 and cyanogenmod 13.0 - 20161118-NIGHTLY ( recconed simplest Marshmallow upgrade ), installed the basics - thats it - left the phone with my mum again.
Got back few weeks later - i had realized my mum wasnt reachable on her phone anymore - figured she could still make calls herself, strangly she even would still be reachable when called via landline , but for some reason not from any cellular networks - so i went for a visit and thinking it might simply be a problem with her sim - i swaped her sim for mine - when turning the phone back on it now asked me for an SIM-unlock code...WTF!!! (and befor anybody asks my mums sim network was never A1 either)
- everything else seamed fin - imei and baseband still ok, sys stable as far as i could tell - only thing i noticed it had updated cm-13.0-20161122-NIGHTLY on its own...
Swaping SIMs didnt yeald any effet - so since that was the only thing that caught my eye i reverted back to 20161118-NIGHTLY and then back to my old wanamlight and finally even to original stock rom - problem persisted.
Searching i found 100 links like How to Unlock Your Samsung Galaxy S3 & Note 2 (No Rooting) , but no luck
Final resort, i even purchased an unlock code from UnLockBase but even that didnt work ...WTF!!!
So back to square one i found this Baseband Unknown and IMEI Null NOW WORKING | Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100, N7105
But even if my imei and my baseband was ok i thought perhaps the efs migh have some taken some kind a hit - so i searched eveywhere and found my old 2013 backups: PIT-File and EFS-partition (DDed via terminal) - so i backedup the existing efs and restored the old-EFS-Backup back again - then i even used Kies to revert everything to the last bit.....but no luck....
..also UnLockBase-Code still doesnt work - (btw. the also provide an unfreez code but ...all the same ) so i rooted again and tried GalaxSIM unlock says unsupported Model....whatever!???!!!:crying:
only thing left is perhaps: buy a cheap mainboard via aliexpress and perhaps take allong the imei from the old motherboard...
but i hate giving up!!!
What do you guys think? ...any suggestions
...sorry for having to read all that...tried to help a little there
update: made a second thread in the N7100 forum part link

You would probably have better luck asking this in your device specific forum as the members there are more familiar with your model and its particular issues, it wouldn't surprise me if someone in that forum hasn't already had this issue on this model.

I've turned it over and chewed on it for a minute but with the troubleshooting that you've already done I can't for the life of me think of other steps for you to try because you've done everything I would do already plus I'm not familiar with your exact model. I'll keep it on simmer and hopefully a butterfly will land on my shoulder and bring something to mind that might help you. You've pretty much covered all the bases already.

Flashing Assurance wireless to Note 3

So I have a note 3 sm-n900p I want to flash if needed to Assurance Wireless that is through Virgin Mobile through Sprint. The phone they gave me is a ANS UL40 that takes a sim card. I don't know if it is a GSM hybrid or what. If I do not have a sim installed in it, it says no service. So here is what I have tried on the note 3. Stock rom installed MJ4 modem sim unlocked. TWRP and rooted. Also tried ssu.apk region lock away.apk. ssu crashes and region lock says ok. Also have tried custom rom's (many) with or without MJ4 modem. Also did the *#0011# and changed settings to menu > key input > Q,
menu > back,
menu > key input > 0000.
Wait for about 20 seconds then a menu will appear. Once the menu appears go to:
>UE SETTING & INFO
>SETTING
>PROTOCOL
>GCF
>GSM/(E)GPRS/WCDMA GCF ON
Either way I still get on any of these changes no sim or sim card not detected or sim card has locked reboot phone.
Also have tried DFS tool and change all info to what I get off the other phone Like IMEI and such, still same. Anybody have any suggestions on how to get the note 3 to take the sim card on assurance wireless? I have tried so many roms and so many ways of flashing with no luck. I have sim unlocked this phone before and it worked on Tag Mobile which is through T-mobile. Please give me any suggestions on what to do, will try anything. Thanks

Also forgot to mention I have used HLTE and HLTESPR roms and modems still no luck
