[Q] No Sim Detected after ROM update - General Questions and Answers

Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, but I read through a lot of posts and none of them seem to be the same thing I am seeing.
I upgraded from the RemICS 1.3.1 to the JB v2 , and now my phone no longer sees any SIM card I put into it. I have tried multiple SIM cards, none of them work. I reinstalled back to froyo, and could see my SIM card. Then I went to gingerbread, could still see it, then I installed this ROM, and the SIM card is once again unavailable.
I have tried using a few different modems, but they do not seem to be making any difference. Any ideas?
This is what I see after I install the JB v2 ROM:
Model Number SGH-i897
Android Version 4.1.1
Baseband Version unknown
Kernel Version 3.0.31-Semaphore_JB_2.0.6sc [email protected]) #55 PREEMPT Wed Aug 22 22:17:31 EEST 2012
Slim Version Unknown
Build Number Remics-JB 2.0
Under Status
Network Unknown
Signal Strength 0 dBm 99 asu
Mobile Network type Unknown:0
Service State Out of Service
Roaming Not roaming
Mobile Network State Disconnected
My phone number Unknown
IMEI SV Unknown

Can You repeat the process?

Yes, I was able to repeat the process. I went back to Froyo, then upgraded to GB, then to JB. Same issue.
I also want to clarify, I cleared all cache before installing each ROM. I also tried clearing cache after installing the ROM, but it made no difference. I even went so far as to use the advanced option for formatting the different folders /boot, /system, etc., then doing the reinstall from Froyo, but that made no difference either. I stopped short of formatting the entire internal SD card since I didn't think this was the problem.

Hello mate,
it happen the same for me. I solved the problem following the instruction in this link:
http://www.androidfamily.net/2012/0...g-galaxy-s-gt-i9000-via-remics-jb-custom-rom/
Once you have installed it, you can recheck the sim lock box. It workded for me.
Good luck!

Thank you! I will give it a try adding this step to the process. I am assuming it is the same even though mine is the i897 instead of the i9000. I'll report back on my experience.
Disable SIM lock of your Galaxy S GT-I9000 by going to “Settings > Location and Security > SIM Card Lock”.

I went into Settings > Security > and i see Set up SIM card lock. It is already disabled.

I was able to get it to work. WOOT!
I am not sure exactly what did it, but I think this is it...
Based on the SIM lock not being set, I decided to start messing around with it and I ended up locking the SIM using a key code from the number pad. Woops, didn't really mean to do that, but I was following some instructions on how to unlock the phone completely. Well, the only problem I had from there was I couldn't get the unlock code...I rebooted my phone and did a recovery. However, even after recovery, my phone noticed that something had changed with the SIM and I was prompted for a PUK code. Fortunately, you can get this from the AT&T website. So I logged in, did the code, my phone was now unlocked. I went into the settings and looked and the SIM card was now set to locked. I unchecked the box and unlocked it. Then I did the upgrade again and it worked this time.
Thanks again for your suggestion!

I have a LG Stylo 2 an it's doing the same how can I fix this it's showing no signal an no sim

Device locking is done in the operating system, not the physical device. I have yet to see a custom ROM or ASOP to be sim locked.
Now keep in mind, the phone won't show APN's for other networks when you insert your SIM card. What is going on here is the device is reading your sim card to identify the provider then set the proper APN as default. To test if it's unlocked, try a different SIM in the device and see what happens.
Edit: I'm assuming you are talking about a SIM lock. If it's a lock of some other sort, please provide more details with EXACTLY what is going on.

This is NOT a sim lock. What is going on is that your phone has lost it's APN settings or is using the wrong modem. a sim lock means that your phone will only work with 1 provider, installing the SIM from a different provider will give you an error message similar to this: ‘SIM not valid’, ‘SIM locked’ or ‘SIM not accepted’
Since the phone is working on other providers, i would believe that the phone has lost it's APN settings for VIP. I would look up the APN settings for VIP and manually put them into the phone and go from there.
A quick search found a thread with the APN settings:

Hello again and once again thank you.I tried what you said for APN,but it didn't work.Is there anything else?!?

Try to flash another Radio. I never had luck with KF1, and quite frankly it kept me from getting any service at all for like 2-3 reboots after.
Try KD1, or KB3 (those work for me).
Reboot a few times, and see if it works.

No Radio Signal

So I have been playing around with my Verizon S3, I have been swapping between different ROMS then all of a sudden my radio goes out. I now get 0 signal no matter what ROM I'm on. The odd thing is that I was switching in between ROMS that I had already used. I have tried downloading a radio but still no luck with that. Now I'm on a completely stock ROM but still no signal, any idea's? I also manually selected Verizon for the network. On some of the other ROMS it showed my number as something incorrect, now on the stock ROM it shows my actual number.
I haven't had the phone for more than 3 days, since I'm on a completely stock ROM and the binary is still at 0. Am I just best off bringing it into Verizon? Or is there some fix that I'm overlooking?
Thank you in advance for the help.

Have to try factory reset? if stills not working, seems like your SIM card is messup. Make sure you have stock rom, go to Verizon store ask for new sim card (it's free) and ask them to re activate it.

I just did a factory reset on the stock Verizon rom and I still had 0 luck, I'll go into Verizon tomorrow and get it straightened out. Thank you very much guys, this has turned me away from wanting to load ROMs a little
Edit: Just an update, I went to Verizon and they could not get my phone to accept a new sim card. Since I just got it within 14 days they had to give me a new phone because the other phone would not take another sim card and would not activate. I'm not exactly sure why this happened, I was just flashing between ROMs that I already knew worked.

i went back to 4.0.4 then used odin and upgraded back to 4.1.2 reset wiped phone rebooted completly stock all root and custom recovery gone. used verizon software and went from mb1 to NE1 updated software now its at stock 4.4.2
i can insert a old rogers canada sim it sees network right away and shows up in APN
insert a new activated telus sim and it does not show anything except for the sim from unknown provider or non verizon sim crap but i know how to remove the system app for that notice does not change a thing.
i have used" phone info" and tried the different bands global, lte/cdma, gsm i have tried in service modes and dial pad codes (have not done *228 on 4g lte phones so its not a fried sim card) best i get with telus sim in and set in gsm mode is the can rogers network show up. nothing in the other modes.
i have manual tried the APN setting in phone and apn manager no change
i show a imei number however it is different from the original on the back sticker but the phone has no issues with the rogers sim card and the current phones imei so it changed at some point prob from a previous custom ROM but it is working to see a network just not activated on rogers
so now i have a unlocked bootloader, stock 4.4.2 clean phone 100% stock Verizon software i have read everything i can seem to dig up and still will not work

[Q] No connectivity at all

Hi guys
So I have the 23rd december version of Cataclysm installed, ElementalX kernel latest and I also flashed the 5.0.1 nexus 5 radio. Everything was working smooth for a day or 2 (no problems at all, I love Cataclysm). When I was on the train yesterday my connection (2g, 3g, 4g, everything) fell away as usual on Belgian trains in some areas, but it didn't come back... Now I'm stuck with a nexus that only has wifi... Does anyone know what to do? I have never seen this before so I'm clueless
I have tried installing other radio's. With the KitKat one, it didn't even find my SIM-card(no PIN login whatsoever)(this is also not a SIM related issue because I tried other phones). When I flashed the one from 5.0.1 back, it was the same issue all over again. I tried using * # * # 4 6 3 6 # * # * but it says my radio is off, gprs service too. network type unknown...When I try to turn the radio on via the button in the menu, nothing happens...
I did a full wipe in TWRP, installed cataclysm and elementalX again and again:nothing...

It does register the SIM. When i put it in another phone, it works just fine
Yesterday, my IMEI and smallband were gone. I did a full restore to stock (root gone and locked). The IMEI and the smallband are back but the problem is not.
When I do the *#*#4636#*#*, it says the radio is off... I cannot push the button to turn it on, nothing happens.
thanks for the help so far, when the problem isn't resolved by tuesday I'm RMA'ing the device. but I'd rather not

If the SIM is fine and it doesn't work on stock, then its likely a hardware issue, so I'd just go with the RMA.

Samsung Galaxy S10 (SM-G973F) doesn't register to network

I recently bought a used Samsung Galaxy S10 (SM-G973F).
At first glance the phone was in excelent shape. The SIM Card was connecting to the mobile network, and calls, internet connection, etc was OK.
But then, I found out that the phone had been rooted. Probably, by the seller. In pannic, I rushed to unroot flashing the stock Rom.
Here what I did:
1- Forgot to check my precisly CSC code and assumed ZTA (cause I'm from Brazil, and the phone is from carrier "Claro")
2- Downloaded the stock rom using Frija
3- Using Odin 3.14.1 flashed the device.
The previous rooted system was on Android 10 and One UI 2.5. With this new rom went to Android 11 and One UI 3.0.
The problem:
The phone recognizes the SIM Card. But it simply doesn't connect to the network. When I try to make a call it says: " not registered on network"
The phone DO recgonizes the SIM Card. On the SIM Card Manager shows my carrier name (Vivo) and my phone number. Also, the SIM app is showing on the app list.
Things I tried:
Rebooting the phone
Changin the SIM Slot
Testing the SIM on another device to ensure it was working
Checked if the IMEI wasn't missing/undefined. It is not, the IMEI appears to be untouched
Checked if the IMEI had been blacklisted. It's not.
Flashed SEVERAL different stock ROMS with different CSC (ZTO, ZTA, ZVV)
Try to manually select the network. This also throws an error saying "error while searching for network"
I'm really desperate and don't know what to do anymore.
No one have a clue either? :C

How to Fix 'Not Registered on Network' on Android
Here is how to fix 'Not Registered On Network' error on Android. Mostly error occurs on Samsung phones, but this solution works for all android phones.
www.android-recovery.net
Wow,
This is exactly like my S10 right now.
At first, all is good, the signal was great, all working well, except cant connect to samsung pass and samsung health because it was root.
then i brought to sellular shop service, to flash the phone.
Then, “not registered to network” happened. The signal ok, the phone able to read dual simcard, but “emergency call only” and if i try to search network manually, “error while searching for network”
And the sellular shop service have no idea how to fix after they reflashed and try to fix it for several days.
Have you found any solution to fix your pho?
pls advice…

So, were you able to find a solution for this problem? I also bought a Note 9 N960F/DS recently and found out it was actually a N960N model that was changed to N960F/DS. So I did exactly what you did, I flashed the original stock rom, N960N, but now phone will not connect to network. I also did hard reset, reflash other stock roms, nothing changed. Anybody with insight should please give us some pointers.
