Wi-Fi vs 3G on the P3100

How do you differentiate a Wi-Fi model from a 3G one? I just flashed a Wi-Fi variant over my 3G model, and now the phone is missing.

buddy its simple there is a sim card slot on 3g model but not on wifi...
And on flashing you didn't get any phone option bcoz wifi model firmware do not have any module for calling(gsm utility) like phone.apk etc...

1- As i understand you have the 3g model and flashed a rom made for wifi model and didi not find any phone functions it is normal as this rom you flashed made specifically for wifi only model so do not expect it to display phone functions as it is not designed to use you gsm module in your tab it is for another model without gsm module so your gsm module will not find app inside this rom to use its abilities so will remain dormant and silent
2- Regarding your question flash only the roms that say clearly it is for p-3100 not those for p-3110 or p-3113 as those do not contain gsm module so will work in your device but no gsm functions or phone functions will work if you flash a rom that says clearly in the instructions in the thread you downloaded from that it is for p-3100 so you are good to go and gsm and phone functions will work no worries
3- I read a reverse condition of yours as if one with for example p-3113 ( without gsm module or phone functions) flashed a rom for p-3100 (with gsm and phone functions) the icons of phone and messaging and contacts will appear to him but if he presses these icons no actions happen as no gsm module found in his device

[Q] HTC Sensation no signal (no service) issue

Hi ,
i am facing no service issue with HTC sensation xe with audio beats i have tried custom roms and stock roms with no luck , did factory restore , i have s-off +root.
hboot version is 1.27
baseband : 11.76A.3504.00U_24A.3504.31_M
When i turn on the device without sim card it says "Please insert sim card" and when i put sim card it says limited service and no signal with cross on signal bar .
Please tell me what should i do to fix this issue also what do you think its a hardware related issue ?
One more thing .. when i insert the sim it pops up the available networks and when i try to register on network it says Your Sim card does not allow to connect this network.
Also when i put the phone in air plane mode i can change the network mode to GSM only and WCDMA but when airplane mode is off and radio is on i can't change those settings .
if i go to testing section by pressing *#*#4636#*#* and then i go to Phone settings i see there "WCDMA preffered" as the network mode and when i try to change it from dropdown list it doesn't allow me to change .
do you think if i flash some other radio/rom it will work ?
also what other thing can i do to figure out the issue .
Thanks Much .

Hi,
It seems that your radio and firmware should work for most ROMS around.
How old is your sim card?
It might be worth trying to get a new one.

No .. Sim card reader is also fine because i can still see the sim toolkit folder and when i put the sim in device it shows me a popup to select network when i try to join it fails to register on network .
also i can dial emergency numbers.
i don't think the sim card reader is broken . phone is detecting the sim but no signal .
if there is a problem with signal IC then it should not detect any network operator to choose from .. so it seems its not a hardware issue
Thanks

Hi, have you managed to fix this issue? I have exactly the same problem with a 3 week old phone!
I called HTC to let them know and they think it is a sim problem, however, my sim is very new and is working in other phones!
I don't know what to do, I needed a new phone for school and to my dismay, it is not working!!
It was working until last week and I haven't damaged the phone at all, I am very protective over it!!!
I have read stories over flashing the phone, but I worry that I will damage it if I do so, and my parents just spent a lot of money on it for me. LOL!
My sisters' and I all got the same phone, but theirs' working fine!
Please let me know if you can help me
Thank you

type in dialer *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone info
from there it has options for network

I seem to have the exact same problem as described above (no signal, sim card seems to be fine)
Did any of you fix this?

Had same problem on nexus s after updating from jb to ics,no signal problem...changed sim card,everything fine..
Sent from ViperS

HTC Sensation T-Mobile 4G
I think I had the same issue (as described here). While I'm not really sure which of all the tricks tried that made it work, I'd recommend trying yet another SIM. Good luck!
Edit: After all, it doesn't look like it works. My current provider claims this HAS to be related to SIM-locking.
Edit #2: Check for IMEI blocking.

[Q] Usim 3 on 9300

I recently bought a Star G9300+ which I think it's the same as a HDC galaxy S3 i9300
My problem is that it doesnt read my 3 usim (3 is an italian operator and I live in Italy). My usim works in any other device.
When i put it into my device it asks me pin but after that it says "No sim detected in slot 1" (In italian of course).
Any other sim (but not USIMs) works in my device.
My device is: (from the site where i bought it)
Model G9300 +
Band 2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
3G: WCDMA 850/2100MHz(IMT-2000)
OS Android 4.1.1
CPU MTK6577 Cortex A9 dual core, 1.0GHz
ROM 4GB
RAM 1GB
I want to know if i can make USIMs work in my device.
Thanks

up?

Hi: did you gain root privileges on your phone? In case, you might try to change the IMEI codes (using those of some old or broken phones), sometimes it may solve that issue.
Ciao, Luca
P.S.: is it a dual SIM phone, isn't it? So, did you try both the SIM slots? Usually on dual SIM chinese smartphones, one slot is GSM-only, and therefore an H3G USIM cannot work in it.

I know i put the sim in the GSM/WDCMA slot because the other is only GSM
Ciao lucignolo ^^
EDIT: I'm rooting using an italian traduction of a guide someone found in xda forum but i actually cant find it.
It involves downloading from the phone a copy of the rom for put the things back if something goes wrong.
Using SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.01 when i click read back and connect my phone nothing happens.
The phone is shut down and has no battery because they told me to do so.
In windows device manager there is an unidentified device wich is my phone.
I tried to update the driver with the ones provided with istallation.
I get a message with something like this (it's in italian...) : the .INF file of another producer dont has the right information of digital signature
Here I put the image of the italian message:
(ok no I cant because i've not writed 10 message already)
What can i do?
If i find the original guide i'll link it here

Same problem here. I got my update through PC Companion just now and now phone won't connect to my home network. It is Generic and unlocked to all networks. I have issued this SIM card just for this phone from my service provider because old one was miniSIM. And it worked well before update. I tried reinserting card, it does recognize SIM, it does find my network, it just refuses to connect to it.
Any thoughts?

Then downgrade back to 4.3 using the 4.3 ftf file accordingly via flashtool

Fix
Just flash baseband from 4.3 and everything is back to normal i fix it that way.

Ok, thanks for possible solution. However, I replaced my SIM card with card from another carrier. It is prepaid card so it is inexpensive to buy a new one. Cards from two different carriers are visually identical, but old one does not work, while new one does. I like new number (starting with 666 ) so I will stick with the new card.

expain me how to do it bro

Download 4.3 ftf for xperia m2 (check your proper version in settings) and download flashtool ( google it ) and when you open the app you choose flash mode and choose the 4.3 ftf but uncheck everything on the side excepted baseband and voala when you boot it works. To enter in flash mode you restart your phone and hold the volume down key and connect usb in same time. you have tutorials on youtube you can check. hit thanks if i helped

My RN7 Pro is stuck on EDGE network. PLEASE HELP. Tried most of the settings.

Hello people, i need some help with my Redmi note 7 pro..
(I'm from INDIA)
Here's the Problem:
I'm not able to use 4G network on my RN7P. I'm stuck on EDGE network. My Sim card is 4G and I've checked almost every settings available normally on my device to help myself.
This problem came after a soft reset (i did that from the settings, not the recovery) .
And here's the twisted part, sometimes I get the 4G network without doing anything, but that happens like once every 2-3 months. And as soon as i restart my device or shut it down, I'm again stuck with EDGE network.
important points:
1. 4G network works fine on my Sim card on other devices (tested). I'm using Airtel.
2. I've checked most of my settings. (Including APNs)
3. I have tried to again reset my phone. Unfortunately it didn't help.
4. I haven't rooted my device, didn't unlock the bootloader and neither installed any custom rom.
5. I'm running MIUI 11.0.2.0 on top of ANDROID 10.
6. Please help me, I'M a student and its getting difficult attending my online classes because of this network problem.
7. Signal strength is always around -51 dbm 99 asu
Some questions:
1. HOW DO I FIX THIS!!????
2. WILL FLASHING A CUSTOM ROM FIX THIS ISSUE?
Okay, so I'm very new to XDA forums, i created my account only a few minutes ago. But i used to visit this site for Downloading custom roms.
Please help me out
