Hello, I just got the my touch 4g slide from a friend. It worked great tell I went to a friends house. I had little or no reception there then, when I went home, I continued to have no signal. I have tied factory reset, pulled sims card out, and got a new one. So I think it is the phone. Have u guys heard of this problem or know how to fix it, it would really help out. Another when I go under network I try to connect to tmoble but it says this sims card can not connect to network, also under network details it says. UnknowN network. Sorry this keeyboard kinda sucks..

Hey guys,
First post here, so not 100% sure if its in the right spot. Gotta bit of a weird problem with my new S710. Got it on Monday with everything working fine. Then one night I was surfing the net testing out the EDGE and WiFi and the phone froze. I rebooted but when it came back on it couldnt pick up my network
I've gone over settings over and over again, called my SP, the place I bought as well as HTC and they cant give me a proper answer that I can pin point the issue and fix it. Also tried flashing ROM's to WM 6.1, back to 6.0 standard but nothing happening. Now the weird thing is, my SIM works in other phones, and other SIM's work in my phone. Its just my SIM that isnt working
The furthest I can get to is trying to turn the phone functionality on, which just stays on off.....
Any suggestions? Help is much appreciated. Thanks guys
I have also faced similar problems from my previous prepaid Connection in AirTel. I roam a lot in a particular place, my AirTel prepaid will display no signal while the post paid one will show signal, not full though. And yes I have seen the same thing after swapping the SIMs. At another place, my prepaid SIM will show SIM ERROR . So try changing your SIM from your service provider.
Well, so are I can tell you that the Vox is a little bit picky about SIM-Cards. Fireburned's SIM doesn't work with my Rose ROM for instance! Maybe you just got a "Monday"-SIM/V ox

Its a damn weird problem....
For interests sake what kinda SIM are you using? 32k or 64? Is it 3G enabled?
I know the S710 doesnt support 3G, but maybe thats whats causing the problem. Im gonna try go to my SP tomorrow or Monday to get my SIM swapped out. Maybe I should try another ROM, see if that makes a difference....
Thanks for the reply

Seems so. I've Googled myself to death and found a few similar problems to what Im having. Its just really strange it worked, and then did
The other day it happened for the first time, 2nd day I had the phone. I freaked, with it being my first smart phone and whatever. LOL
I did some ##022# trick, which apparently re-connects me to my SP, that worked. Hasnt worked this time....
I'll flash another ROM onto my phone, will let you guys know if it changes anything
Its a 32K SIM. In India There is no 3G . And hence most of the SIMs are not 3G ready. Mine was not 3G ready either.
If you want to try another ROM, I would suggest to go for fb's Clean ROM or fh's Lite ROM, you will not find fh's ROM in a thread, but you will find it's hyperlink in his signature .

OK cool stuff. I'll try see if I can get a 32k SIM, just to be safe and I'll ask em to not enable 3G. Dont use it really anyway
Thanks again for the help mate
27 days into the TB and since 3pm yesterday no more 3G signal. I only can get 4G when I'm in town. Not sure what happened, worked a bit with Verizon who actually thought it could be a tower issue but talked to a few friends at work they have 3G no problem. I flashed back to stock rooted, then stock no root and still same issue. Sucks at home since 4G doesn't go that far and without 3G I get no signal. Verizon said no problem take to the store and they replace.
Well its not the phone.... SIM CARD!!
Guys at the Verizon store say they have been seeing phones come in that 3g or 4g just stops working and they have been replacing the sim card. Sure enough fixed the issue. Then they tried to tell me that the LTE app could be the cause, so I removed it and dialed the number to the phone menu.. they just looked at me. Then I asked if that is the case, why did they just tell me they have been seeing phones come in that have the same problem and the sim card fixes it, I bet those phones don't toggle the 4g and 3g... They shut up.. Even Verizon TS over the phone says they know about the app and its not the problem! Oh well, get to root again tonight..
Today as soon as I left a 4G area my 3G does not work. I tried everything and I get no internet connection with 3G or 1X. When I go back into a 4G area it works fine. But if I move back into a 3G area I get no internet connection. Do you think my CDMA modem is fried?
Im having a problem with mine in general where as my thunderbolt was fine. Either I have nothing, 3g and most of the time no 4g. Headed to verizon after lunch.
It's most likely your SIM card. Had the same issue and ended up with a replacement phone for no reason. Go get a new SIM from VZ and try it.
This solution may work but definitely couldn't hurt to try. I had the same problem you seem to be having, and flashed all roms and versions of software and still only 4G would work. I thought the 3G was fried and seen very few alternatives online besides new SIM or new phone. Saddened I went to bed with battery out and SIM out and as soon as I popped them in the next morning, 3G was normal and has been normal for weeks now. I can't explain it but it more than likely has something to do with the SIM card like everyone else is saying.
Dont know why but after a few days it actually started working. Thanks to all who tried to help.
Im in a 3g only area right now. Never really had the no data problem, but suddenly I am and my phone freaks out and I sometimes lose signal for 20 mins. I'm pretty sure someone from verizon said told me not to take out the sim card
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
I had sim card replaced and its still screwed getting replacement sent. They also had me do all kinds of other whack stuff that didnt work.
I lost 3g/internet also and tech support was going to send me another phone, but I tried the new sim card and Bingo. It worked! Thanks for the post, it saved me from having to flash my phone back to stock"for the warranty."
I did all the things they said to do, sim card,format sd card several times and new gmail account. Got replacement phone in and everything is working great so far.
Hi,
I just got SGS2 on ebay, I put a at&t sim in it and it worked good for a day, suddenly the internet stopped, even though I see the 3g or H+ icons.
I thought that maybe I changes a setting, did factory reset, but still can't get the ineternet to work, I put the sim in another sgs2 and it works, apn settings looks the same as on the other phone.
Is there any utility that i can use to check where is the problem, I see the little arrows near the 3g/h+ icons flashing up (green) down (orange), so I am guessing it is some kind of proxy issue, can anyone help?
Tamiroquai
It could be a problem with the network rather than your phone try calling them.
problem is not with network
I am pretty sure in that, I put the sim in another sgs2 and it works like a magic
PLEASE HELP
Guys you are my last hope, before I declare this thing as a brick
Hello,
I am from India. I had purchased a Google Nexus 5 phone (Black/ 32GB) last year (December 20th, 2013)
I have started facing a serious issue since yesterday. My entire mobile network went down all of a sudden. Tried using other SIM but of no use. The same SIM works fine in other phone. Other functions including WiFi in Phone works perfectly fine.
A couple of things that I noticed are:
1) When I try to search for the Network manually, I get the message "Error while searching for Network".
2) I noticed that the PREFERRED NETWORK TYPE is defaulted to LTE. I cannot select any other option 2G or 3G.
3) When used Choose Automatically option - it starts with Automatic Registration and then flashes an error "Can't connect to this network right now try again later"
I tried doing a Factory reset hoping that it would work. But, no success. Have contacted LG Direct Service Center (since I bought it from retailer and not from GooglePlay store) and they suggested it's a PCB problem and it needs to replaced which would cost me around 12K INR. Which I am not ready for.
Please let me know what needs to be done. Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Vijay

He's clearly not in airplane mode.
I have tried with all basic troubleshooting options, kindly check the attached screenshots. Please please help needed urgently.
I was going to make a new thread, but his problem matches mine almost exactly.
Hi guys, i have this problem for over a week now.. A very frustrating week i must say. I got this n5 about a month ago, my uncle got himself a G3 and gave his nexus to me.
Everything was smooth, amazed by the phone, everything working fine, happy as hell. It all crumbled when I went to spend the holidays at my brothers, where he lives my carrier doesn't work (everyone uses another one). When i got back to my house where the mobile network works fine it just stopped. All other sims would work on my phone and my sim work on other phones.
I gave it a time, thought it would be cause i spent too much time on my brothers and it would be ok after a while. It didn't. Then i started to worry and try to fix it somehow. First i got a new simcard (same carrier), no bueno. They told me to restore my phone and stuff, it didn't work. The phone has always that empty triangle, doesn't matter if it's 3G, 4G or 2G.
So I came to the internet look for help. I saw that some people had bring this to the LG, their response was to do a recovery with fastboot and then put 2G on the mobile network. For a moment i thought it was over, my phone finally had some bars !! But to my disgrace I can't make nor receive calls, i can only send/receive SMS and access internet thru 4G, not 2G as the support said. Oh, if i put 3G or 2G dem bars go missing and the empty triangle ****er appears again. Still, my simcard works on every other phone but now only one carrier works on my phone (not mine unfortunately).
Then I started looking on forums like this one and a whole bunch of others and tried many things, all of them unsuccessful.
I tried many things, maybe forgot some but will list those that i remember.
I tried to flash the factory rom. Then tried to flash only the radio of previous androids (tried too many of them to count). Dialed that *#*#4636*#*# or smth, put LTE/GSM, only LTE, activated/deactivated radio. Airplane mode on/off. Tried to recovery on fastboot again. Tried to make new APN. To finish my story, put a Cyanogemod rom and it also didn't work.
So now i decided to post here as my last shot before i go to that carrier that still works. Also, what guarantees that this carrier won't stop working like the others? I'm afraid that may happen. Further informations, i saw many people complaining about T-Mobile and other carries, but I'm brazilian, so it's not one of these. My carrier is Oi and the one that still works is TIM.
The two threads i got most tips were these and some sites in portuguese:
