[Q] Nexus S No SIM Error (AT&T)

Couldn't find this anywhere so I thought I would ask....
I've had the White Nexus S w/ AT&T 3G Bands for a week or so now and it's been great. Running CM7 with custom kernel and all is good. For what ever reason it started giving me the "No SIM" error. I have no idea why this just happened all of the sudden like this. Anyways, AT&T was kind enough to give me a new SIM and this issue just will not go away.
I'm out of ideas on this...
Any suggestions?

I'm not sure if this will work, but try to go back to stock, and see if it's works.
I'm a Vibrant user, so I have no idea how you would do this (least I won't until Wednesday, when I get the Nexus S 4G from Sprint), but try that, may fix your problem.

I'm having a very difficult time locating the stock firmware for the i9020a

Flashed back to stock and the NO SIM error still exist...
I really hope this issue isn't hardware related...

did you flash a new radio? i had problems with the kb3 radio (lost 3g after a week of use) went back to kb2 and all was good.
also possible, check your apn settings

Bootloader shows the Radio version to be: I9020UCKB2
It even shows the carrier info to be ATT
What should the APN settings be for AT&T?

Borrowed the APN settings off of a Bravo here inside the store and and when I save the settings it doesn't list the APN like it should. I am saving the settings but it doesn't show after its saved.
Uuugggghhhh...

Now I'm having issues with flashing the stock radio...
Here's what the device is telling me:
"Verify Image (RADIO) ... Fail
And of course cmd prompt just shows where the write failed. I am using the radio file found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033269
I'm just simply extracting the radio img from that zip and using fastboot to apply.

Flashed fine thanks for the zip!
The baseband version is still the same though and the SIM Card error still exist.

Yeah I have. I received a brand new one from AT&T when this first started.
I've given up on fixing this device. I contacted Negri Electronics and asked for an RMA. This unit has to be a lemon. This will make the first time I've ever had to send a phone back. Hopefully the replacement will be a better unit.

HTC Noob Question about Radio Flashing

I've seen devs mention to flash a radio from Hboot and Fast boot before. Are these terms synonymous? Fast boot is accessed from Hboot correct? I've flashed a radio a few times, but never understood the terminology. A PD98IMG is always flashed the same way from what I understand.

More or less correct. HBoot flashing is done with the PD98IMG.zip on the SDcard. PD98IMG.zip can contain any number of images to be flashed. Fastboot flashing is done using the fastboot.exe and can flash a single image.

I've never quite understood what the advantage is to fastboot flashing. Then again, I've never truly understood fastboot in general.
Something I definitely need to do more reading on.

I've tried several times, and several methods to flash my radio to the 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 radio img. And nothing seems to be working. My best guess is its user error. I'm a noob and trying to learn how to flash my radio. I currently have the 12.39.30.19P-26.06.04_M with the TPGB-Ninja_0618 ROM and [email protected] #28 kernel.
I've done the method where i go into adb to access bootloader, then i flash the radio.img then reboot the phone and that doesnt work. I've tried running the radio.img though CWM and that didn't work.
If I power off my phone and then hold power and -vol down to get into the bootloader it automatically will go into hboot and start to run through the PD98IMG.zip. I'm wondering.
Do I need that .zip folder on my sdcard forever or can I get rid of it?
Also, can I just switch out radio.img in the PD98IMG.zip with the new radio.img?
Can I do the above question without having all the other .img 's in the .zip folder?
I've done some research, but haven't found my answers, or was able to fix my problem.
So hopefully someone can help me.
Please be gentle with me, I'm new to this type of thing, but a fast learner.
Thanks in advance

Assuming the PD98IMG.zip containing the radio flashes properly, you can remove it afterwards.
Have you checked out the inspire only radio thread in the dev section, yet?
There's already a ready-to-flash PD98IMG.zip for the radio you want to flash on that thread.
Download it from that thread, verify the MD5 checksum, plop it in the root directory of your SD card, reboot into hboot/bootloader, once it finds the PD98IMG.zip, confirm the update, and away you go.

Ok I'll try that as soon as I get to my computer. Thanks for the reply and I'll let you know how it goes.

Just don't forget to check that MD5. I have had incomplete (meaning...BAD) radio downloads on a solid WiFi connection, so it DOES happen from time to time.

I was able to flash the radio, but all that work for nothing. I actually got worse data. But then again I could of done something wrong again.

Couple of things. 1) Be sure to give the radio long enough to "warm up"...I'ave had it take several hours after flashing before I started getting decent speeds from a radio I know works. 2) It is usually recommended to keep a copy of your radio flash on your SD card in case you need it (GPS fail, etc., ) so you can reflash if you are away from a PC, but not keep it in the root of your SD. It's very possible to end up in a continuous boot loop until you somehow either get the file off your root (SD card reader) or fool the phone into thinking it isn't there by pulling the SD card when you pull the battery to recover (I've only heard the last trick works)...

You've also made sure you have the appropriate RIL for the new radio you flashed, correct? That radio thread also has the RILs + info about them, as well.
Also try rebooting more than once after flashing a radio/ril, just for good measure.
When I first flashed the 04_11_M2 radio, I had only rebooted once, as a result of the flashing process. Once my phone was done loading up, I received my first call with it, the caller couldn't hear me, but I could hear them. Caller tried calling back. Same thing. I decided to give it another flash and reboot. I called that person back, and it was working, never experienced that since.
Coincidence? Who knows? But radios are weird, quirky things that seem to need a little "voodoo" type flashing/rebooting to kick them in, I suspect.

Well I think I found out why I'm getting these speeds. My radio has a "P" and not a "U" like in meiguoguizi's sig. I have the same radio as that (number wise) but he has a "U" and not a "P".
The radios that I can flash have an "x" in that place so won't that just mean it will switch to whatever letter my data is running on?

I think I found out why I am having this problem.
I can flash the radio.
I can flash the RIL.
But I have a "P" where the "U" is supposed to be to represent the HSUPA speeds.
If thats the the reason then I don't know.

I think that U/P thing is determined by one of the settings in the build.prop file. I know it's been discussed before, I just don't recall the details. If you visit the "editing the build.prop file" thread in the dev section, or possibly amongst the comments in the inspire radio thread, I think you might find the specifics in one of those places.
Or browse through henrybravo's posts, I think I remember him explaining it to someone.
Bottom line is that you have the same radio, it's just a setting that's determining the connection type and as a result, that letter changes, depending on that setting.

Today I flashed the 09.04.11_M2 that is suggested on for LeeDroid 3.2.1 and now I have lost all notification sounds, lockscreen sounds, and keyboard sound feedbacks. Can anyone help?

First, try another re-flash of the radio.

I did a full wipe and restore and got all the sounds back. Reloaded the RIL and everything works fine.

Yes the x is a placeholder (remember your algebra).
Open he's right. You have to flash the Riley that goes with the radio and then reboot twice. Make sure you are using the best radio for your Rome.

[Q] Radio problem?

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a little help here. My Skyrocket seems to be having radio/modem issues.
Instead of having a symbol that displays cell signal, I have a circle with a line through it. This is true with or without a working SIM inserted. For baseband version it says "unknown".
I've tried flashing to stock and that didn't seem to make a difference. I got this phone second hand so I don't know if the previous owner tried to flash an incompatible rom and borked up the radio firmware possibly?
Any thoughts about what I can try?

That all depends on which method and tar you used. Some tars dont come with the radio. and with the wrong radio on a rom you will get a RIL mismatch and no signal

So I'm unsure how it got to its current state. (meaning the circle with a line through it) To return to stock I used the K0nane tar that's in the sticky in the dev section. I don't know if that has a radio in it or not but flashing that didn't seem to change things.

That doesn't have a radio in it. Look in your "about phone" and tell me what your baseband and android version says.
After that I will probably say to flash the sammobile tar...
Also, Did you have the correct plan added to your service when you switched phones?

baseband version = unknown

JimmyStale said:

Right..
Assuming your plan has been provisioned for the new lte phone, I would flash the sammobile tar in odin

I'm going to give that a try. I suppose I'll just search for sammobile?
The SIM i'm using was provisioned for my previous Skyrocket. I ended up trading that but used the same sim in my new phone. So, I'm assuming the SIM/my account should be proivisioned for LTE since I never had AT&T change anything on their end.
And just to clarify, this doesn't really seem to be a "no service" type problem since its as if the radio isn't even recognized by the hardware.

Lol, I appreciate the helpful info in your reply. Just so you know, I don't seem to be having the same issue as any other post that I've seen. Unlike the other posts I've read, I don't have "no sim" or no signal, or no LTE. My problem almost seems like an issue with the SIM slot itself. I think I can rule that out because I've actually replaced the SIM slot with a known good SIM slot. The other reason I think I can rule this out is because I am unable to access the radio related content from within the service menu. Unfortunately I don't think there will be a :oof:: that fixes what I have going on. (I wouldn't mind being wrong on this)
So I flashed the sammobile tar (multiple times) but no luck. The baseband version still reports as "unknown". What's more, my phone reboots after about 15 or 20 seconds. Very odd. Any other thoughts on things to try?

Sent from my Skyrocket 4G LTE using XDA Premium

I'm going to try the multiple suggestions I got and report back. I'm also attaching the "screen shots"

Hopefully the attachments are here

I flashed EFSFix through CWM and then SAMMOBILE tar through ODIN. No luck, but ODIN did take about twice as long as it did the first time I tried flashing the sam .tar. Same symptoms, circle with a line through it and phone reboots itself after about 20 seconds. The baseband version still reports as "unknown".
I flashed back to stock through ODIN, flashed CWM with ODIN, and then flashed EFSFix again. Same exact results as the first time.
Next I flashed back to stock using ODIN, and flashed UCLE2 ROM through ODIN. Flashing this causes the reboot issue to go away, but the radio issue remains. (I thought to try the UCLE2 ROM because that's what was loaded when I first received the phone and the phone wasn't rebooting itself then)

[Q] "disconnected because service is unavailable"

Okay so i was having wifi issues on Trickdroid 7.0.0 TMOUS.. so i did a little searching and what not and found out i had to flash 2.3.5 parts/radio to get it working. before hand i was getting full bars/4g. After i flashed both 2.3.5 extra partitions, and the 2.3.5 radio i reboot to find out my wifi finally works, then i notice i have no signal.. i tried rebooting, etc didnt work. tried restoring the backup i made through clockwork before i flashed the radio; didnt work. tried taking out my SIM card and putting it back in, didnt work. ive tried flashing miui, trickdroid 8.x.x, a nandroid posted from stock 2.3.5, nothing will bring back my signal. so i thought maybe my SIM card is messed up, i put it in my backup go phone and i get full bars.
also, i tried RUU both 1.5.x and 1.8.x and both give me RUU error 155 after its done "sending files"..
any help would be awesome. could i flash a older radio or something??
edit: im on hboot 1.09 btw

Okay looks like no one knows how to fix this?
tried flashing a older radio and no go, and just flashed RUU 1.84 and no go as well. i flashed the international trickdroid and upon first boot i had signal (no 4g) and i was able to send a text to myself and received it. then i restarted my phone and.. gone that was before i flashed the RUU.

NOTE : always do a backup and a nandroid backup before trying any of these.
OTA update:
A) ROM is stock, bootloader unlocked, stock recovery and not rooted.
- just run the OTA update, there is no need to relock the bootloader
B) ROM is stock, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery and not rooted.
- flash the stock recovery that comes with your RUU, extract the RUU for the stock recovery.
* boot to bootloader
* fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
* fastboot reboot-bootloader
* fastboot erase cache
* fastboot reboot
- run the OTA update
C) ROM is stock, bootloader unlocked, stock recovery and rooted
- download OTA Rootkeeper from Play Store
- run the OTA Rootkeeper and click protect root
- run the OTA update, there is no need to relock bootloader
- Once done, run OTA Rootkeeper and click restore root
D) ROM is stock, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery and rooted
- download OTA Rootkeeper from Play Store
- run the OTA Rootkeeper and click protect root
- no need to relock bootloader
- boot to bootloader and fastboot flash the stock recovery
- run the OTA update
- Once done, run OTA Rootkeeper and click restore root
E) ROM is custom, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery and rooted and you have a stock nandroid backup
- flash the stock boot.img if after nandroid restore, you have a bootloop
- flash the stock recovery.img
- relock the bootloader - fastboot oem lock
- boot your device and run the OTA update
F) ROM is custom, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery and rooted and you don't have a stock nandroid backup
- if you dont have the stock nandroid backup, you need to run RUU
- before you can run the RUU you need to:
* flash the stock recovery.img
* flash the stock boot.img (maybe no need)
* relock the bootloader - fastboot oem lock
* run RUU
- run device setup
- run the OTA update
Flashing RUU to revert to stock or to update your One S after you have a custom ROM installed.
- you must have the correct RUU for your device.
- if you are not sure, download CID Getter from Play Store and run it, it will show your CID.
- with your CID, you may be able to find a correct RUU for your device
then (even though some people may not agree with this, but this will bring no harm and it is noob-proof) do this:
1- flash a stock recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
2- flash a stock boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
3- re-lock bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
4- flash RUU
Note : for people with ERROR 155 UNKNOWN ERROR they need to go into HBOOT and select FASTBOOT and run the RUU to revert to stock (thanks Lloir)
And usually:
Error 155 - usually wrong recovery.img /wrong boot.img / unlocked bootloader
Error 140 - wrong bootloader / bootloader unlocked
Error 131 - wrong RUU for your device

Oh i see 1.09 now. I understand why the updated adsp wcnss would fix your wifi but I can't really figure out what broke your radio. You flashed a bunch of different roms so you ruled that out. I would go ahead and try flashing the 2.35 radio again and see if that helps. If not flash an older radio and see.
I know how to undo all the changes you made but lets see what a new radio flash does first. Don't just flash the one you have but re-download it fresh and flash with that.

okay thank you. i will try a few more things. i really hope its not blacklisted, i really dont think it is though since it happened RIGHT afterwards.
oh other details is i didnt wipe or anything i just flashed both, partition parts/radio then rebooted and wifi worked then had no service.

Since it just happened after you flashed new stuff that leads me to believe that was the cause. I'm pretty sure I know how to fix. But if it were me I'd start with re-flashing the radio.

I just installed the OTA 2.3.5 update over 1.84 RUU and still no go, im going to try to install the radio through recovery and see if that fixes it.
edit: well that was dumb.. now i have the updated hboot :l

Sorry to hear that! I didn't expect you to try that route. However, it should have resolved your issue the OTA would have overwritten everything you did. You couldn't get a cell signal after the RUU or OTA?

You can't reinstall the radio, those days are over for you. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. You're stuck with 2.x RUU's only from now on to change radios.
Since your in this spot you might try the latest CM10 nightly they have implemented the radio firmware into the rom itself. That might allow you to sidestep your problem. Also check under about -> phone and see if your imei matches whats on the box that came with the phone.

Okay, i now know its not blacklisted. I just unlocked it with the unlock .exe and put a extra AT&T SIM card laying around and put in the AT&T APN and everything and still says "disconnected because service is unavailable". sooooo, thats good news! i guess..
im going to try to flash a nightly and see if that works. my brother just told me they are probably working on the 4g towers here and maybe thats why it isnt working on this phone and a few other people.. that would be cool, but frustrating that ive done all this.
edit: with the at&t SIM card it just says "no service" in the notifications bar. With the T-Mobile SIM card it says "Emergency calls only". weird
edit2: Still doesnt work with cyanogenmod 10.

im suck in the same place man i hope someone finds out

Yeah I thought today it might be fixed but its not. It finally finds T-Mobile if I search for it but it won't connect to it. It won't connect to att either when I put my att sim in. So I think its the phone having issues.. I've been seeing a lot of other people having them as well.
When I select any network or even automatic registration it says "can't connect right now. Try again later."
I uploaded two screen shots. It won't even let me call T-Mobile..

I don't have the box, and the sticker on the back is mostly worn since I used the phone for a while without the sim cover (I bought it new without it). but I just looked in my google dashboard, and typed *#06# and it matched and I can see the last three digits on the sticker clearly and they match with both as well. the first 5 digits are: 35990
thanks.

[Help] HTC One S stuck on EDGE after S-offing

I seem to have somehow messed up my HTC One S's radio while S-off'ing my phone: its now stuck on EDGE. I followed all the steps exactly, but after completing everything, I noticed that my phone wouldn't connect to 3G/UMTS anymore. I know that it isn't a hardware problem as it can occasionally latch onto a 3G signal, but everytime it did, it would have full bars, then the strength would change to 0 dBm and 99 asu, where it would then proceed to switch over to EDGE and signal strength would return to normal.
So I ended up reflashing my ROM, relocking my bootloader, RUU-ing my phone, S-on'ing my phone, trying multiple different RUUs... and nothing works.
Also, there's nothing wrong with my network, as my brother with a separate phone on the same network has no problems. I've even tried his SIM card, but that also gets placed only on EDGE.
Does anyone have any insight on what is wrong with my phone?
Edit: attached the logcat to the OP, and this is when I put my phone on 3G only mode: connects to UMTS:3, however cannot get a data connection, then disconnects and loses the signal.

Yea i had this problem to with cm 10.1 aamd did everything trying to fix and yesterday i flashed pacman room and 3g and 4g works. You can try flashing that Rom.

Thanks for the reply, I've just tried it your suggesting, but unfortunately it's still not working
I guess I'll just leave my phone to run by itself for a while, and hope that it 'clicks' and 3G comes back like what the person in the other thread said happened for him/her.

You check to see if your provider is doing maintenence or if there is an outage?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium

My brother is on the same network, but he has full 3G signal on his phone, so there definitely is no outage.

Are you sure you haven't toggled the network data off under the quick settings panel?
Regards,
Opentang

I'm not quite sure how if data is enabled or not would affect it, as my phone can't even connect to the 3G network. It can, however, get data on the 2G network.
Tapatalked from my HTC One S running CM10

I have just been able to get around to a computer, and have grabbed a logcat of what happens when I switch my phone to 3G only mode and it just disconnects itself from the network (i.e. goes into UNKNOWN:0 mode)
If anyone could look through it and see what could possibly be wrong with my phone, it would be highly appreciated.
The main error I can see myself is the:
Code:
[main] qcril_qmi_voice_nas_control_convert_radio_tech_to_radio_tech_family: invalid radio tech = 0
But then I'm not exactly literate at logcat.
Thank you in advance to anyone who could at least look through it and help me out at least a little bit here. (Yes, it's a .rar file as the file size exceeded the upload size limit)

Tried using the radio installer in the Development section: it changes the radio but doesn't fix the problem. Unless someone has a radio.img and some instructions on how to flash it?
Edit: okay, managed to grab a radio.img from the Sense Radio Installer. But I can't install it through fastboot flash radio radio.img even when I'm s-off'd. But a quick question on this: would flashing the radio like this affect CM?

Wow you got a interesting problem. You shouldn't have a problem using fastboot to flash a radio. What error does it give you?
It may or may not effect your phone if you're using CM10. Hardware wise the phone uses the radio installed to it. Software wise in CM10 it doesn't so there can be an effect. But since you've done several RUU's and I assume it still not working on the stock sense rom you can rule that out.
The cover on the bottom of the phone is where the cell antenna's are any chance you dropped your phone or the bottom took an impact?
Dial *#*#4636#*#* and select phone info. Then scroll down a little bit so we can't see your phone number & imei and take a screen shot. Post that here and let's see what it says. Try to take one with WCDMA preferred and WCDMA only.
Also, can you tell us what country and phone provider you have? Have you checked with your provider to see if there are any issues with your account? Did you buy the phone second hand (ebay or from someone else) or from a cell phone store?

Lol, wtf are you telling him to post his phone number and imei for?

The error I get when I try to flash the radio is:
Code:
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
However, when I flash an RUU, the radio version does change, so I'm not sure what's going on there.
As for the screenshots, the first pic is the WCDMA preferred, the second is the WCDMA only, where it has the inital connection to the 3G network, and the third and last one is after it errors out on WCDMA only (gives unknown).
I bought this phone brand new and imported from overseas from an only cell phone store because the S4 version doesn't exist where I live, so as such claiming warranty isn't exactly going to work, hence I'm seeking help like a madman. My phone can still operate the 3G, as it can connect to the network at all, but then it drops the signal and errors. I'm on amaysim in Australia, which operates off the Optus network over here, but there isn't anything wrong with my account, as my SIM card in my brother's phone can get 3G.
On another note: can you understand what's going on in my logcat? or if not, know anyone who can? It might have some information as to how my phone is stuffing up.

I didn't have a detail read of your posts, least look at the logcats. So I'm guessing. I'd put money this is a radio firmware issue. I think if you install this 'RUU' ( radio firmware + config ) it will work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157841 - some nitty gritty examples on page4.
I had a similar problem after going S-OFF, it triggered a mistake I made some days or weeks earlier messing around with firmware -> no radio at all. I also noticed only 3G on Optus (using an Amaysim ) until I updated my baseband.

Did you figure anything else out? Because I am suffering from the same problem unfortunately :/ I've already tried flashing different firmware and radios

Well, I tried your suggestion, using the codf4ther's method, outlined here:
1.) Download the OTA from here: http://fotadl.htc.com/OTA_Ville_U_I...2.35.531.7_release_306848u5s8i4b18xs094yw.zip
2.) Unzip this file (the OTA) and the internal zip file called firmware.zip
3.) Edit the android-info.txt file from the firmware.zip in Notepad++ (or similar text editor) and add "DelCache:1" at the end of the file. This might not be necessary, but I did it on mine.
4.) Create a new zip file that contains only the following files, give it a name less than 8 characters (eg newhboot.zip). rcdata.img and wcnss.img might not be necessary, but from what I've read they go along with the radio, so I included them.
android-info.txt
hboot_ville_1.14.0005_signedbyaa.nb0
radio.img
rcdata.img
wcnss.img
5.) Connect your phone to your computer. Execute the following commands in fastboot. If you get an error that says "FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)" after the "flash zip" command just do it again..
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip newhboot.zip
fastboot oem boot
6.) If you're on a Sense Jelly Bean rom your wifi will most likely be broken at this point. Find the wifi fix for JB roms in the dev forum and flash it in recovery.

But unfortunately it didn't work: it's still stuck on EDGE, although if I put it on 3G only, it can hang onto the UMTS:3 status (sometimes) for a little while, although it's 'Out of Service,' but then it would go become UNKNOWN:0. I'm guessing this method is similar to flashing a radio through an RUU (?), but considering that an RUU didn't work... yeah...

I am not sure if this is relevant but I had pretty much same behavior after 4.0.4 Update .. the phone showed 3g for a while but defaults back to Edge connection .... I do not have a solution yet....

Hey guys,
I believe I have exactly the same problem. My phone randomly disconnects from mobile data on wcdma only & gsm / wcdma auto. Apparently only GSM only is working properly. I'm not using a custom RUU.
I'd like to add that the E, H, G, 3G symbols are displayed in the status bar even ater the disconnection occurs. Furthermore it does not display my phone number in settings. I noticed that the likelihood of a disconnect depends on the area (and thus perhaps on the strength of the signal).

Seems like a slightly different problem to me, mine can't stay connected at all on 3G only, and no 3G or H icons come up cuz it can't get on 3G. However I can get on EDGE data, which is really, really slow. :/
