I changed sims in my G2X and when I booted up I noticed it wasn't getting a signal. I went into status and the baseband showed as "unknown." I was thinking WTF. I have joined the ranks of borked basebands and I have done nothing bad to my phone. I calmly turned off the phone and switched to a sim from another carrier. To my relief the baseband was showing again and the phone connected to the cell network. I then turned it off again and put back the sim that had the baseband error. This time it worked and everything is back to as it should be. I have no idea why I got the no baseband error but it almost gave me a heart attack. Being in Thailand and no viable way to flash the baseband right now I would have been SOL if it had not been rectified.
thats crazy, your story kinda makes me wonder if the people that thought there phones were really borked maybe using the lg updater or doing whatever they were doing could have just took there sim out then put it back in and been fine...makes me wonder, i mean i understand u put a different sim in the phone also but maybe just the original sim had to be taken out and just put back in?

Does make you wonder. Doesn't it. Especially since some of the people said all of the sudden their baseband disappeared and was working before. It could be something as simple as the sim just wasn't making contact or the little computer in the sim got confused and had to be reset by being powered down by being removed from the device, let sit a bit and then reinserted?
I has issue oíd my baseband saying it was unknown after the LG updater and I took my simcard out and it came back after that I made a thread about it as well... this might be kinda funny that the fix was that easy if it is the case.

There was another thread last week where someone posted the exact same results. I'll try to find it. Baseband said Unknown so the OP powered off, removed sim card, replaced everything and powered up and baseband showed up just fine.

Might work for some, but not all. The LG Updater destroyed my baseband, and as part of trying to fix it I got a new sim card from T-Mo but that didn't work either. Ended up sending it off to LG for repair.
After flashing a GB rom I am no longer able to access the T-mobile network. My sim card is no longer detected and I have absolutely no network connectivity. I have tried to flash back to froyo and back to other GB roms without any success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check under phone info and see what your baseband version is.
There is a dumb little problem that I've seen pop up a few times where the IMEI goes missing and the baseband number with it... then this happens...
If the sim card isnt being read at all, as in (please insert sim), shouldnt matter with imei as imei has nothing to do with service. Even with a null/ 000000000 imei, calling, texting, data all works. Its probably your sim card tray.
If your sim card is read, but just no bars, etc, then try reflashing and factory resetting.

My baseband version is "unknown" and my phone says I need to insert sim. If it is my sim card tray, then how do I get it fixed? Thanks.

I had the same problem a month ago, and found a good handful of threads on it. Most of those threads also reported missing base band and imei. I resolved it by flashing back to 100% stock and starting over. Not saying it'll fix you for sure but it worked for me.

Had a similar issue a few months ago, flashed a different ROM and it went away. Not sure is it was a coincidence but recently upgraded to stock KJ6, everything was fine for a few days then all of a sudden no T-Mobile network/ Manually logged on, crappy signal, white 4G icon, calls dropping, I can hear caller, they can't hear me etc... Figured the network might be swamped due to Thanksgiving holiday, waited a day but it got even worse. My wife's SGS4G meanwhile continues to have great signal- not a sim issue as I swapped hers in to my phone and it still sucked. Called T-mobile tech support, new phone arrives this Friday. They blamed it on the upgrade to VUVKJ6, I wan't going to argue with them as I didn't have the phone insurance (I do on the new one) and they said that because it happened after the KJ6 upgrade it was on them .... it only cost me $20 for a brand new replacement.
I do have to say that T-Mobile customer service kicks ass.
Try flashing a different rom to see if itll fix the problem. The last resort would be resoldering. Try all other options first.

Thanks for the replies. I tried flashing to 100 percent stock and nothing changes. It doesn't matter what I flash to or how many times I restore factory setting and wipe all user data. I always end up with a phone that doesn't detect the T-mobile sim card or the network. I requested an exchange for 20 dollars since my phone is still under warranty... I hope I will be able to flash to a different ROM next time without the same problem.

I seem to be in the same predicament after flashing KJ6.
Spent the whole day flashing different ROMs, to no avail.
Guess my only option is contacting t-mo, and see if i can get a replacement.
Will they know if i updated through Kies, or Odin?
i'm in the same boat. bought my phone unlocked through amazon two months ago and upgraded to stock KJ6 through Kies when tmo released it. worked fine until two days ago. SIM works in other phones, IMEI number looks good, APN settings look good. Haven't tried switching to other builds because all the threads I've seen here at xda and other forums seem to show that doesn't change anything.
didn't realize how much i liked my phone until i went to the backup motorola zine the last few days. bogus.
Before you send your phone back make sure it is 100 percent stock ROM and not rooted. Also, factory reset and wipe all user data.

I did know all that. Just wasn't sure of they could still tell I didn't do it through Kies.
Anyway, just contacted T-Mobile, and my new phone should be here Monday.
Awesome customer service.
My t-mobile exchange phone arrived and I upgraded to latest GB via Kies and then I flashed Dr. Honks latest kernel and everything works. No network or sim problems.
I am really happy with T-mobile customer service too. My phone arrived only 3 or 4 days after I requested an exchange. No questions asked.
From what I have been reading on the forums, it doesn't matter if the phone was upgraded via kies or flashed via odin. The phone just has to have 100 percent stock
Damn having the same problem,no sim card detected.No baseband,no IMEI.Went stock via Odin,nothing.Went to stock Froyo and still nothing :-(
sgs4g, same problem...only mine im sure is the sim tray. this was a refurbished phone i bought from craigslist, brand new.
stock froyo, gb, rooted ocataine, doesnt matter- every few weeks it would say insert sim..
Now im just gonna call and tell them it happened after the upgrade because it was there faulty phone to begin with.. now how can i go back to perfectly stock? and does that mean i should send it back on froyo or gb?
I've had/am having this problem. I brought my phone to the UK and I had this issue when I tried a new carrier. 3 weeks ago I was able to plug my phone in to the charger and then put it in airplane mode and out and I had no issues until I tried a 3rd carrier today and now the issue is back and my previous fix isn't working. Because I'm not using T-mobile and bought the phone off of a friend I'm hoping I can find a way to fix this without sending in my phone because that really isn't an option.

Glad you found the battery fix, I have stated that fix in a couple of threads, and started a thread called No carrier signal + IMEI problems = Take out your battery, but it has been pushed down like 3 pages cause no one comments on it.

The link you posted is no good, can you tell me where it was at? Also what are all of the steps to get SIM or IMEI working again just the remove SIM and Battery for 10 Minutes?
There are a lot of people who flash custom ROMS on Telus, Rogers, Wind and T-Mobile who have this problem and if what you are saying works then that needs to go viral. What is strange is that some have the issue same ROM and Phone and others don't it's a hard issue to try an troubleshoot to say the least.
Any more info on this subject would be awesome bro.

My phone HATES my SIM CARD, First off i rooted my phone, its fully unlocked and has been just fine for over a month. I'm using FIDO but its an unlocked Rogers phone. (SGH-I727R model) and original FW and everything. made a couple of phone calls in the morning and the when i got home i noticed that my phone displayed "unregistured SIM" so i tried reloading sim card, reboot and so on over and over again. and it didnt work. so put the sim card in my 4year old phone, and it worked.
try calling fido aswell as rogers.. they said, sim card might be old and there is a conflict with the NEW phone. so i went to futureshop talked with the dude got the NEW sim card and tested it out with no success. again tried it with old phone, WORKS..
now you think maybe the phone might be locked somehow... NOPE. i even tried dude's sim card and he is on another network. (NOT rogers or fido) WORKED with his sim, proof my phone is totally unlocked to any carrier.
NEW SIM Card Doesnt work with my phone but worked perfectly with buddies SIM CARD on another carrier?!?!... lol
and now it shows "no service"
PLEASE HELP.
Update
i have just formatted, cleared cache and factory reset and it still says the same ****. no service... anyone help? i'm dead in the water here..
I had the same problem, I had to switch carriers then my phone started working properly, Honestly I think its the company...
Update
well, it looks like i hit rock bottom. i even installed the new ics rom and its still doesn't take my SIM card. I'm pissed. i need to dump this phone and get a working one. I can't switch over to rogers, I hate them. and when i go on vacation this phone will be a brick if i cant insert everyone elses sim cards around the world.
and i dont think its the company's fault. i have a feeling its because its rooted or something along those lines.
maybe i will wait for the new galaxy sIII and dump this ****. $$560 wasted. i feel soo stupid for getting this phone.
hi,
What have you used to unlock sgh-i727? I have one and need to unlock it so can switch to other provider then ATT.
when i bought the phone it came unlocked. you must goto a website and give them your imei # that is on your phone. and they will sned you a unlock code upto 2 hours later.. DONT try and guess the code. and you will have to pay a fee but it will be minimal. $3-10
Final UPDATE, i went to rogers and got the phone on a contract for $50 and now i think i will give this to my mother to use for pics and ****. i have not a clue what to do with this thing.
And now it works
How reliable is that, i went out and bought a second phone from rogers and after a couple of days of my old phone not working with any sim card, Now it works with both rogers and Fido. Now i am stuck in a 3yr contract and have 2 of these phones. anyways i will try and get rid of my stupid contract. its only been a couple of days and "buyers remorse" law states that you can get out of any contract within 15 days of when the contract was signed.
Same Here
Strange - I had the EXACT same thing happen to me as well. Funny thing is it happened the same day as your first post about this issue on Jan. 25. I am on FIDO as well and had a working, unlocked i727R I bought off eBay from Basatne Electronics.
It was unrooted and working perfectly for a month and a half. All of a sudden I got ‘no service’ and sometimes ‘unregistered sim’ when I rebooted. I tried 6 different sim cards from FIDO and Rogers that worked on other phones and same thing. I cleared cache and did a reset. Same thing. I brought it to FIDO and Rogers and tried their demo sim cards in it. Same thing.
Finally I called Samsung to sent it back to them for ‘repair’. They sent me a UPS label and I sent it to Service Absolut, Samsung’s repair subcontractor in Montreal. It was there for over a week now. Their communication is terrible – it just says ‘open’ or ‘close’ on Samsung’s tracking website, so I called Absolut themselves yesterday asking for the status/tracking number. They said they were going to ship it yesterday even though my repair ticket online said ‘close’ since last wednesday.
I find this really strange, especially since your phone seems to have done the same thing as mine right around the same time. I figure it was Rogers/Fido that messed up their network somehow. Two working Rogers sims didn’t work in it either. My sim card was working on my old blackberry still. My IMEI didn’t appear in any blocked IMEI lists I looked up.
I just got my phone back today 10 minutes ago and it works again. It says 'full software upgrade and reset' on the repair list I got back, although I didn't mod my phone in the first place. At least I had my backup blackberry. Still pisses me off – I spent hours trying to figure out what was wrong with it and I wiped all my apps when I did a reset, so I’ll have to load them all up again and set up my phone.
Just weird.
And Again...
Well, it seems it just happened again.
After a month and a week or two of working perfectly (same length of time as last time), my i727R now says 'No Service' again for some reason on FIDO network and won't connect to anything except through Wifi.
I didn't install any new software or change any settings when it happened.
It was working one minute, put it in my pocket and a couple minutes later it says 'No Service', even though I have always had service before in the area I am in right now.
Does anyone have a clue what can be causing this?
Network, Software (some kind of timer somewhere that would shut off connection), Malware?
This is driving me nuts - I don't want to have to send it back to Samsung again.
Last time Samsung said they reflashed the software when I sent it back.
I don't know why I would need to do that since it was working just fine and I wasn't messing around with any settings before it started saying 'No Service' - same thing happened last time.
I just bought a phone the guy who made no mention of the fact that it was rooted when I bought it. What is worse is he mentioned that his GF worked for Verizon, which did not seem to mean much at the time. Knowing that here is what i'm dealing with.
I was in a rush when I checked out the phone as I had to meet another person to pick one up for my wife as well. It's the sch-i575 in white 16gb. After having a minute to look at the phone it turns out he had Paranoid Android flashed and the phone was rooted. CRAP! Not what I was looking for and he was not upfront about it. The incredibly strange thing was that with NO SIMCARD the phone was getting 3g signal! I spent all night trying to unroot \ undo what he did. I managed to use ODIN to get back to the stock rom although I think it's still a rooted one since I still have the super user app. I got a sim card from verizon but since it was rooted I did not bring the phone in and when I tried to activate later it would not activate. My wife's by the way is working flawless and when I put my sim in her phone it works fine as well. I had to put the sim in my wife's phone and it activated there. Here is the crazy thing, with or with out a simcard the phone makes calls and has 3g internet only but when I make a call it uses HIS NUMBER!! I'm not sure what the hell to do, what could have he done? Any ideas? Please all help is appreciated! I did not think this was even possible for the phone to function w/o a sim. I'm worried about taking it in to Verizon because of the funkiness. Ty again for any insight...

I thought the I575 was an old slide phone. So A. your in the wrong section of the forum since this is Verizon's S3 or B. you mentioned the wrong device number? I saw phones before working and running on networks without sim-cards but that was years ago. If it is an S3, you sure it's a Verizon device? Also since you see 3g....can you browse around in the browser or make a phone call?

Yes, it's a galaxy s3 16gb in white. It looks like currently I was using the tar66 using ODIN. I'm reverting back to the bone stock one now. As far as the models go isn't the SCH-I575 the Verizon version of the S3?
I'm waiting on the stock unrooted rom to take through ODIN and will report back. Thank you for taking the time to try and help.
Ohh, yes the internet works and when I make phone calls with or with out my sim in it makes calls successfully but the other guys number shows up. What the heck did this guy do to the phone!

You are obviously absolutley correct. I'm frantically trying to figure this out. I have flashed the stock rom and don't have super user anymore. The problem persists with the guys number.
Could he have flashed a custom kernel and modem or does reverting back using the stock rom cover all that ?

I just double checked and I had the I535VRLAG1 version, yours is the I535VRALF2 in the link you posted trying this now. The crazy thing is that it even says that the sim is activated with MY number! but the calls are still comming from him. I even tried wiping the device and clearing the cache. I also tried to JUST flash the modem with VRLG1.modem.tar.md5 and nothing :\. Waiting on the file from your link to download and will try that.
Is it possible that this is being caused by something on Verizon's end? The phone ( with out the SIM ) is registered to him somehow? I know this is not normal but because his GF worked for Verizon could they have done something funky?
Yeah its definitely possible its from something she did to the phone but most likely nothing from Verizon's end. Does the IMEI number under status match the IMEI number under the battery?

Yes IMEI is the same in the OS as behind the battery.
The curious thing is that on the same screen in the OS where you find the IMEI there is also a field called Network and it says " Unknown"
It also has things like:
Eri v : 5
Mobile network type : EvDo-rev.a:8
The thing I keep coming back to is how is it possible for this phone to make calls\ have data with out a sim?
Starting to really think I got cheated
Cheated? Sounds like you have free Verizon service.
Roll with it. If you really want a bill you can have mine...

Just did and the same thing happened. I went to the Verizon store and the guy there had no idea and got me in touch with tech support from the store. They were dumbfounded and flat out said that what is happening is impossible. "It's impossible to make\receive phone calls with out a sim unless they are emergency" I harped on the fact that I am making phone calls as one of their other customers and that this is a big deal. In the end since I had the insurance and extended warranty they will ship me a new phone.

MASSIVE EDIT:
Hey Guys,
So i picked up the Motorola Razr HD LTE from fido today. The phone was purchased from a company that sells both rogers and fido (sister companies).
When i posted last night, i noticed after i put the fido sim in SIM CONFIGURATION popped up and told me all info off the phone will be deleted etc...
Last time it basically branded my phone to fido. Got a fido boot screen, all these fido apps i can't remove.
UPDATE:
I got them to replace the phone from yesterday, and this time around i purchased a unlock code, put in a MTS sim ( that carrier don't have the motorola phone) and its working but still asks me for SIM CONFIGURATION, im just going to keep pushing cancel.
Is there remove sim configurator and keep stock factory ICS (no carrier bloatware, nothing!)?
Updated, Anyone get one of these Rogers/Fido Phones?
I got one. I bought my phone from someone who supposedly got it from Fido, but when I checked the version it was the RCI version and had the versions in the screenshot. After I popped in my Rogers sim it got Rogers branded for me and reset the configuration/factory reset my phone (I wanted to see the new features of smart actions, so I didn't lose any data).
Afterward, I popped in my coworkers BELL Sim card to enter my unlock code (I always buy unlock codes as soon as I get the phone... You never know) and noticed the configuration didn't reset.
Look at the screenshot for my radio.
I'm not rooted or modded at all.

But when i restored with my the other phone i got for that one day, it wouldn't let me reconfigure the sim it just stayed fido, with the splash screen and bloat.
I tried to use the RAZR HD Root tool and restore from there and the the same thing, i just keep hitting cancel everytime i boot up, i just wish i could get rid of that sim configuration message without rooting. (its not my phone my sisters so she wants to keep the warranty).

But when i restored with my the other phone i got for that one day, it wouldn't let me reconfigure the sim it just stayed fido, with the splash screen and bloat.

Don't worry about it. The bloat can all be disabled (in the all programs menu puss and hold on the program you want to disable then choose app info and stop then disable the app). I also found the Rogers bloat didn't really slow down the phone much either (I came from a Verizon phone....)

True, just the fact of knowing that it is there pisses me off though LOL.
Im going to try and work on a few things, like possibly trying the sim configuration with a SIM from a carrier that doesn't carry motorola/android phones, and see what happens.
P.S: Thank for your help with the motorola razr, i used your guide to upgrade to jb a while ago
