T959V no signal after unlock - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Hi,
I just unlocked my phone, and now I have no signal and no service. The little "x" that sits near the signal bar IS NOT present, but I have no signal bars. My phone picks up my SIM card and APN settings correctly.
If I go to search for networks, it tells me that there was an error.

Is IMEI full of random characters or 0's?

Motorola Dext - No Imei/APN/Signal

Hi, I don't know what the hell has happened to this phone but after looking at it I can see there is no IMEI, no APN settings and no signal.
The phone has recently been unlocked from Orange to allow the use of an O2 Sim card. Using one of those internet unlock sites. It has been working fine for the past 2 weeks since unlock.
I don't really know what information to give;
Signal: red circle bar
APN: empty, I tried to add an APN to the list but it would not save. It just goes back to an empty screen.
Network: unknown
signal strength: 0dBm 0asu
mobile netowrk type: unknown
service state: out of service
mobile network state: disconnected
IMEI: Unknown
IMEI SV: Unknown
Any help would be awesome

im having the same problems but i managed mine to detect and display my network name but still no signal
i am seeing my imei and imeisv (20)
dial this on the dialer *#*#4636#*#* and in that settings go to phone info scroll all the way down make sure radio is on
and select gsm only but thats as much as i can come up with im stuck still with signal strength 0 dbm 0 asu
ok i was doing some reading. and i found it to be possible that the phone doesnt have the apn settings for all networks in built, so putting in your current carriers apn settings manually should work, im going to try this to see if it works, i just saw the part where you said you tried this but it wouldnt save, still going to give it a shot, mine was also unlocked from orange to use on digicel jamaica networks and it worked for about 2 weeks, then BAM! red anti circle for signal or circle with slash through it or cancel icon. and nooooo signal none whatsoever. but with the *#*#4636#*#* settings i managed to get it to display my carriers name when i drag the notifications menu down. i dont know if flashing the radio will fix this but i was told this moto cliq has the latest radio already. still searching for solutions
this problem is all over with 0 solutions lol

I managed to solve the problem a couple of weeks after making the thread by simply rooting it and installing a custom ROM, I think it came with a radio flash as well but can't remember. It's my sisters phone and it seems as though she hasn't had any problems with it since then so all is good.

[Q] 4G LTE, signal bar....

I have an interesting problem : On my XT925 ( XenonHD rom), I have no signal bar at all while connected to a 4G network(0 db). I can still make call and the signal bar actually appears when I call, but as soon as I hang up the bars go back to 0. While I switch to a 3G or H+ network, I can see my signal bar.
I have no 4G connection problem, data works fine.
I guess its no really a problem... I just wish I could see my signal strength in 4G.
Anyone as ever came across something like that ?

I read that in the change logs of a few ROMs that the 4G signal strength display is a little wonky. If you needed to see the actual signal strength you could you into Settings -> About Phone -> Status. Alternatively, you could change the status bar setting to show numerical signal strength at all times instead of bars.
no luck...

Not working....when I switch to numerical display for the signal strength I get 0 dBm. As soon as I call out or receive a call it goes to -90dBm, stays up for 30 sec. and then goes back to 0.....
On a different note, the satus says that Im connected to LTE while the bar indicator read 4G.

Having the same issue with 4.2/4.3 roms. Thought it might have to do with network. Tried a few different settings, but no fix yet, and I'm not sure all calls come through. Data connection is no problem though. 4G /LTE are inter-changeable. Hopefully there's a fix it somewhere.

GSM / Network Signal bars grey / unavailable

Hey all, thanks in advance for any advice offered.
For some reason my Galaxy S8+ has a greyed out GSM signal bar with an 'x' next to it. As far as I remember the only thing I did was put it to charge overnight. I've tried removing the SIM, still grey, inserting another carrier's SIM (known to be working), still grey, my original SIM also works fine in another phone. Everything else not related to cell service works fine (wifi, bluetooth etc.). I can see the IMEI number in settings as usual.
I've tried resetting the network settings, factory resetting the phone, I've even reloaded the ROM via Odin. No joy.
The phone is pretty much stock, except for the fact that I changed the carrier software from AT&T to Verizon in order to use a particular LTE band. Since I did that, the phone worked fine for several months.
I've only noticed two things odd thus far. After reloading the ROM and downloading a few updates, a game (Empire) appeared from nowhere installed in my app drawer. Also, the Airplane mode icon in the notification shade is light blue, similar to when it's transitioning from off to on. Airplane mode seems to work though, because I can toggle it, and the wifi reacts as such.
I can't search network operators manually (says: Error while searching for networks), changing the network mode does nothing, and none of the secret dialing codes work either. They all say "Mobile network not available". With a SIM inserted, my SIM status menu says, Network: unknown, Signal strength: -113dBm 0 asu, Service state: Radio off.
Sorry if I'm long-winded, but I'd appreciate any assistance at all. Thanks again for taking the time to read.
I had the same issue and I replaced the daughterboard and antennas

Signal Icon Manipulation App

Hello! I'm in search of a signal manipulation app, if one even exists.
Why? I don't have a sim card in my phone, so I'd like to have the signal bars show me a "placebo" cellular signal strength. Is this possible to do without masking the icon?
I know that phones that have the status-bar demo mode shows the cellular signal as full/or sometimes empty, so is it possible to have an app control what signal icon is shown on it's own, so that I don't have to see the "No SIM" icon or an empty signal?
(NOTE: I have disabled the "No SIM" icon under System UI Tuner, but it doesn't feel right without cellular signal bars being there.)

No Service after turning on Mobile Data

I have a network issue with my OnePlus 8T. Whenever I enter an area that doesn't have great signal, if my phone connects to 4G, I completely lose all signal and the phone will read "No Service" or "Emergency Calls Only". The best thing I can do is toggle Airplane mode or restart the phone to fix it. The issue does not occur if I set my phone to 2G/3G only. My phone will have signal absolutely everywhere, there isn't a spot that I know of that doesn't get reception. However, the moment I tap "Mobile Data", if the phone connects to 4G and the signal isn't 50% or better. My phone just loses all network on the spot and refuses to return unless I do the two things I listed above. I've been in contact with my service provider, tried swapping SIM slots and cards, reset my network, verified APN is properly setup. Just about everything by now. Does anybody know of a possible solution to this?
