T-Mobile Sim on Skyrocket was working, now NOT recognized - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi I recently received an AT&T Skyrocket and I unlocked it to use on T-Mobile and flashed it to Juggernaut/Faux009/VK1 and everything was going great.
I changed the ROM to SKY ICS, from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1602216 and only updated to D-9
I also changed the radio to the Blaze 4G.
I then started changing between radios to try to find the "right" one, I used Blaze 4g, UVLE. Then I started not getting any signal and went to check APN settings and I received the error "Insert SIM Card", but the Sim card is already in the phone.
I then tried to flash a bunch of different radios including the above and also VK1, and Telus radios.
Please, I need some help. What should I do? Do you guys need more info?

[Q] Help PLEASE!!!! Sim Card issues.

Hello all. I need some help. I recently traveled down to the US, and decided to place my blackberry (rogers) sim card into my fido nexus s, to avoid getting charged on the fido account. everything worked great. Until I came back to Canada, and tried to use the fido sim card. It will not recognize my fido sim anymore, it says emergency calls only and sos over the signal. If I try to edit the apn's they won't save. Thought it was a bad sim, so I went to fido, and asked for another, so they gave me one, and it doesn't work still, and they tried it in a different phone and it worked at the store. so I am lost. If I re insert the rogers sim, I am on the network right away. I called rogers, I called fido, I went down to the fido store in person. I searched the net. I've done a factory reset, I've done restores. I've tried to use unlocking apps from the market. The phone just thinks there is no sim card. I am running miui, and while in the bootloader, the carrier info says that it is at&t... I did flash the rom while in the US to an updated version, with the rogers sim. I have tried to reinstall the rom after that, updated the rom, flashed the kernel and the radio, but with no success. Can anyone please help?

[Q] Lost service after flashing rom

Hey! Running Darkyrom v10.4 and flashed a different modem. 1st one worked but was slow, 2nd one did not work and now I have no service. I went into mobile networks and can't do anything, message saying insert sim card. Is my sim bad from flashing or is there another way to change the apn settings? Thanks, kurt
does it show anything under baseband

Rogers One X on AT&T - LTE Trouble

I ordered an unlocked Rogers HTC One X to use on at&t, which I received yesterday (Wednesday). When I got the device, I inserted my SIM card, added the "at&t pta" APN (which I found here on XDA) and connected just fine to at&t's LTE network. No troubles through the rest of the day.
This morning (Thursday), I noticed I only had "4G" signal, i.e. not connected to LTE. I checked in the mobile data settings, under Network Mode, and saw that the GSM/WCDMA auto was checked. I switched that over to the GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto, LTE showed up in the status bar, but I had zero data connection. This has been the case all day today. The LTE symbol is there, but only the Up arrow blinks between white and black; the Down arrow does not light up at all, so no data on LTE.
- HSPA data works fine
- my at&t plan is definitely provisioned for LTE (I've been using a couple of other LTE devices in the last few months with no trouble)
- LTE data definitely worked yesterday (speedtest showed over 15mbps down and 11 up)
- I did put my SIM card back into my Galaxy Nexus for a couple of hours last night before putting it back into the One X (I'm thinking this is somehow related, but can't figure out)
- I've tried a couple other at&t APN settings (Cingular wap - fine for 3G data, but no LTE, 'Phone', again fine for 3G data, no LTE)
- My SIM card is indeed a micro-SIM and is only a couple of months old, at most
Any ideas? I'm pretty much out of ways to troubleshoot at this point, so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
I think there is a specific AT&T APN that you need to plug in to get LTE enabled. Did you make sure your SIM is LTE compatible? Are you running the stock Rogers ROM or did you install a custom ROM? Is your bootloader unlocked? Have you tried updating the radio to AT&T default radio?
Just wanted to knock some of those questions out there.
I think the AT&T PTA APN is the LTE setting that's out there. I haven't come across any others.
I'm completely stock (it is a Rogers rom), haven't yet rooted or unlocked the bootloader or anything like that. Nothing has been flashed.
Actually, I just realized I ran the software update last night before bed, which put me on software version 1.94.631.3. Android version 4.0.3, Sense 4.0. Now I'm willing to bet this is the cause of my trouble. But HSPA working and LTE not working is still puzzling.
I wonder if it's the radio version not being 100% compatible. Are you willing to unlocking and flashing a custom Rom based on an at&t Rom? That could rule out a software issue assuming your apn settings are good.
I have the Telus version and had lte issues until just recently on CleanROM.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I was thinking about going through the unlocking/flashing process this weekend actually, as I'm pretty sure there is an issue with the radio like you said.
Just need to find some good tutorials to get me started.
Thanks!
Check out the guide I have in my signature. It's for the Telus variant, but the Spoof-CID would work with the Rogers version as well. Also, the Rogers version is, by default, unlockable though HTCDev.com so you're good there. The step by step instructions on HTCDev is pretty straightforward, but having a tool like the Spoof-CID program helps in getting the required information sooner.
Definitely read up on it and ask as many questions as possible. Good luck!
Great, I'll check out your link.
Thanks for the help.
So I managed to get LTE working!
I figured I would at least flash a different radio.
- Started out with the htcdev.com unlock method, which was pretty much painless.
- Used the method in Athrun88's signature to get TWRP flashed over to the One X
- Downloaded (and flashed) one of the CM10 nightlies
- Downloaded (and flashed) the AT&T 1.85 radio file
- Dialed *#*#INFO#*#* from the deviced and selected GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto network mode
- Got LTE!
Flashing CM10 might not have been completely necessary of course, but I couldn't resist, and it's been pretty great so far.
Make sure you go and knock out the superCID hack too. That way when things go wrong, u can use the 1.85 at&t ruu and skip all that in the future:beer:
Hi SBA1226
Thanks for sharing. I had the same problem after doing the Rogers update and thought the At&t LTE service was out in my area.
I had flashing experience with my gnex, but never dealt with HTC phone. What exactly is that Spoof-CID.bat procedure as described in Athrun88's guide? Was that the guide that you follow? Would really appreciate if someone can point me to a step-by-step (maybe with picture ) guide.
Another question I have is do you loose functionality like wifi hotspot or media link HD when you flash custom rom like CM10 or cleanrom 4.5 DE?
Thanks.
I did not use the spoof-CID in Athrun88's guide, but I did use the rest of the guide to get TWRP recovery flashed to my One X.
You'll want to start out by going to the htcdev.com site, registering, and following the step by step instructions there to get your bootloader unlocked. They make it really easy to complete.
Once this is done, you should still be in fast boot mode, so just follow Athrun88's guide to flash TWRP, and you're on your way to flashing ROMs.
I can't speak for CleanROM, but I've had no issues with wifi tethering in CM10.
Also, there are quite a few guides on YouTube that I found really helpful.
Good luck!
Thanks. I will try it this weekend.
By the way, is there a simple way to back to stock? Thanks.
I was in the same situation with a Rogers One XL, no LTE on CM10, and here's what I have done so far to get LTE working, though I'm not quite done.
1. RUU back to 1.94 Rogers (from this thread): http://forums.team-nocturnal.com/sho...X-XL-LTE-RUU-s
2. Unlocked the bootloader using the official process, flashed TWRP
3. Flashed the stock rooted 1.85 ATT ROM from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
4. Flashed the ATT 1.85 firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694012
I had LTE now.I then flashed to ATT 2.20 ROM & FW (not RUU) and LTE still worked.
I assume it was a RIL/FW compatibility/requirement for ATT LTE, so going to CM10 should work, but I have not tried.
Hope that helps some.

[Q] Return radio to stock?

So I was considering getting a T-Mobile prepaid SIM card and trying it out, so went ahead and flashed a T-Mobile radio to my Skyrocket. After that, everything in the phone info appears as "Unknown" - unknown baseband, unknown IMEI, etc.
I've tried flashing two different AT&T radios now, with no result. What should I do to return the radio to a working state?
OK, I finally figured it out myself, so I'll just leave this here in case it helps anyone else.
The problem was that the first T-Mobile radio I tried replaced several files in /system/ which were probebly from an older version of Android. This just broke the system's cellular stuff entirely. The solution was to reflash CM10.

i727r wont work on Wind mobile - need help

I tried many different combinations of roms and kernels and almost all the radio's (tmo, bell i757, blaze) but nothing seems to get my phone to work on wind. I would always get no sim error.
Somehow on gingerbread after flashing some radio (can't remember which one i think one of the newer tmobiles), the phone recognized my sim card and then i could change the network settings (made it HSPA+ only) and I was able to get a strong signal. But after i restarted the phone i got the same problem (no sim card - insert sim card)
My phone is unlocked (tried with rogers and bell sim cards), and I rooted it, and its running ICS 4.0.4 Rogers STOCK (ULFX3)
Can someone guide me on what troubleshooting i can do to get it to work on WIND (AWS/like t-mobile)

keep cable unplugged, wipe everything, flash a radio, then flash a rom
read this first as to which radio http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119788

LTE/GSM/WCDMA or GSM/WCDMA - which should i pick for Wind? - Does it even matter
Should I do something to the APN - there's nothing there
I unplugged and wiped before trying out these combinations of radios with rom's -
i757MUGLH2 - ICS and CM10.0.0 - no sim –detect - telus, rogers and BMC
SGH-T989 - UVLH1 and CM10.0.0 - no sim –detect - wind mobile, telus, rogers and BMC
Blaze 4G_LB7_ICS and CM9 (unknown baseband)– no sim – detect – wind mobile, telus,rogers,302320, BMC
i757MUGLH2 - ICS and CM9 - no sim –detect - telus, rogers and BMC
SGH-T989- UVL14 and CM9 - no sim –detect - wind mobile, telus, rogers and BMC
SGH-T989 – KID - and CM9(unknown baseband)– no sim –detect - wind mobile, telus,rogers,302320, BMC
Let me know what are the next steps I should take to trouble shoot my NO SIM problem, because i think if i can detect the signals then the radios are working
