After multiple flashes I ended up with a KIES update, as I couldnt find my country firmware anywhere (NORDIC NEE).
After the KIES update, whenever 3G is active on phone, it shuts off data and goes to emergency calls only. If I active 2G only, after a while it turns on edge and its possible to make make calls again.
I tried flashing multiple times with different firmware and nothing helps.
Also, I send the phone to rep. and after 2 weeks I got it back with exactly same error.. I dont think they did anything but activate "2G only" feature, stupid #%#%#
Any ideas and I mean ANY IDEAS is very appriciated..

First this only happens where I work in the basement where only certain providers (eg Verizon) have some signal in only part of the room. I did not get signal on AT&T or T-Mobile Pay as you Go down here.
I noticed especially after I flashed the new radio which gives me better service overall that I get phone signal down in the basement, but it is GPRS of Unknown Network and says emergency calls only. I get up to 3 bars. If I scan for available networks I get the name 31064.
Does anyone know what network that is or what is going on?
Anyone have any ideas? (I will take wild speculation as well)
i wouldn't be alarmed by it. I experience this at my office since I work in the basement...haha
It's possible your basement just won't read a signal like mine. install a window by your desk, maybe that'll help, but there shouldn't be anything wrong with your handset.
Sounds reasonable. I would agree with no problems with my handset. I do get better signal than my nokia e51, so maybe it's picking up a slight signal where the nokia could not.
From what I've noticed, my Nexus S acts this way whenever T-Mobile (my provider) does not have coverage wherever I am, but AT&T (not my provider) does. You can check this by going into "settings" -> "wireless & network settings" -> "mobile networks" -> "network operators" .....it will then search for & tell you what network has coverage where you are. Every time I've had bars & it says "emergency calls only" & I've checked the above, it's always been when I had coverage from AT&T but not T-Mobile.
Thus, it seems to me like an "enable roaming for emergency calls only" kinda thing.
Emergency calls only

Hi,
I am actually on holiday, and for the first few days my nexus s (running masters deodexed 2.3.3 with voodoo kernel) was working fine. However for the last day and half, it has been stuck on Emergency Calls only. I have tried everything to fix it, switching to airplane mode, full reboot, going into settings, wireless and networks and manually selecting a network but it still only remains in Emergency mode only.
I pressed *#*#4636#*#* and under phone information, GSM service says Emergency Calls Only
I have tried switching off and on the radio and fiddling with the preferred network type but nothing seems to work. I dont know if this is a roaming issue (i dont think it is because it was working fine initially abroad) but any help will be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Hi, I am having this same problem too. I have the Nexus S from Koodo and it seems like it doesn't "like" my simcard. I also have a fido simcard on me and the Nexus S works fine on my Fido simcard. Today i went to a Koodo store and tried another one of the simcards and it didn't work either. So far I think my Nexus S is defective. You can PM me your email if you like if you want to see if i fix it.
All of the sudden I can't make or receive calls on my huawei m7, if I make a call it tries to dial for 10 seconds and then terminates. I get no dial tone, people calling me gets nowhere. Text messages work fine, 4G/WiFi works. I have noticed that if I turn 4G off I get no signal, so I have no 2G or 3G, I've tried factory resetting which did nothing. I've also upgraded to 5.1 and downgraded to 4.4.2, no difference. Also tries clearing the data on the Google apps as some people have suggested.
Anyone got some ideas what could help me with this problem? Would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance
hey pal just change your network mode to 2g 3g( i mean deselect 4g lte wcdma auto connect from preferred network mode. because 4g lte is meant for data use only. I f your carrier and phone doesnt support volte. u cannot make calls over lte networks.) after selecting 3g 2g auto connect just restart ur phone and then check. I have same problem with my mate7. I fixed it with the help of google. Thanks google.
Hello,
Did you find a fix for this issue? I'm having similar issue with my Mate 9.
Any advise/suggestion would be appreciated.

hello,
I am from India and using Vodafone network. I am facing a very weird problem with my OPO. I am able to receive and use LTE ie I can use internet and send and receive messages.
But the problem starts when I try to make a call. As i dial a no. the phone switches to 3g and I receive a error saying NO NETWORK CONNECTION in about 5-7 seconds. To confirm this problem, I tried to switch to 3g only and 2g only in the network settings. Whenever I select 2g or 3g, my connection is lost and I cant even register to a network
I have tried many other sims including reliance, idea and another vodafone sim with the same result. I have flashed the stock COS file using fastboot to make my phone completely stock including clearing data, internal storage and system. I have tried a lot of roms which never used to give me such a error but the problem persists in all the roms
Please guys help me out
Thank you in advance

I managed to solve the same problem not a long time ago. At the end of this post there are several values you can write in nvram. Try experimenting with the ones.
If it did the trick just don't forget to make a backup of EFS partition
same problem, let me know if you resolve
I think you might need to unlock all bands. Check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031
Notes:*Those modifications need to be redone after radio*flashes.*
I will certainly try that..
But is it possible that the bands I need were unlocked earlier and now they are not, beacause 10 days earlier my 2g and 3g networking on this phone were working perfectly...
On that day I messed up a lot of settings in *#*#4646*#*# menu, could this be the possible reason that some of the bands are now locked???And I also want to tell you that all the options like WCDMA only GSM only etc which were earlier available in the menu are still available
Thanks your replies
I am currently in Italy using a Vodafone UK sim card, it's been working perfectly (apart from randomly dropping complete signal periodically) but now it's just completely died, as in it won't find a signal at all to connect to any network let alone data roaming. I have contacted Vodafone who said there's nothing wrong at their end and the worst thing is it was working perfectly till this evening. So now it sometimes says emergency calls only or just the ring with a line through it as it cannot find any signal at all. I have tried doing manual network operator selection and automatic but still nothing... Any ideas? It's a g9550 128/6gb
Update I now have 3g data but it says "no network connection" and I cannot send receive texts or phone calls, yet I have full data...

Consequences of buying a CN/HK variant....
They usually have network connectivity issues, not surprising. Try removing the SIM card, turning the phone off, wiping cache in recovery, insert the SIM card, and then reboot. Then manually go and search for a network in settings and force it to connect to Vodafone Italy, should work.
It's working now again, I didn't do anything lol it just started working on its own accord! I'm now in Switzerland and all is good. My life is empty without my phone
It always happens to me when abroad. I am on O2. I have to select network manually and pickup different to the one which auto connect shows emergency calls only. Looks like some cells allowing me to connect but won't pass through calls
Do you also have a usa/china variant?
No, o2 UK from Samsung
