No Service with Valid SIM - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got my Nexus 5 on Friday, put my SIM in it and everything worked like a charm. Went through the weekend happy with how good everything was.
Yesterday, I was getting poor signal (connection errors when on LTE). So I decided to try a reboot. I did that and the phone came back with no service. I checked the APN, no issues. I swapped my SIM into my old phone, LTE working fine. I called my phone company (Rogers) and they checked the SIM, reset the network and I reset the phone. No Service (no anything).
I called Google support and their systems were down, so they recommended a Factory Data Reset. I did that - twice, still no service.
Any ideas? I'm guessing I'll have to send this phone in for replacement.

Is the SIM a cut-down SIM?

Nope. My wife's SIM also didn't work. Odd that everything worked fine at first.

Dial *#*#4636#*#* and select phone -> change the drop down box to LTE only and see if data works. Make sure to change to back to something relevant if you want voice/text afterwards (like WCDMA preferred). Sounds like its not set to use LTE anymore.

It's not just LTE, it's all service including basic phone calls. Already shipped back to Google.

go to your carrier and get a new sim card , the one you have has become defective. Your carrier should not charge you anything for a new sim card , if they do maybe 5-10 $

Are you on a 3G only plan? The way many carriers (most of them outside the US, known problem on some carriers in Japan, France and the UK) are provisioning their SIMs, if there is an LTE network on the carrier and the SIM is provisioned as a 3G-only plan, a Nexus 5 will not register to the network at all. There is no workaround to this at present other than to change your plan to something that is LTE enabled.

Rebooted my phone tonight, when it was up again no service. It only says "Searching for Service" I already tested several SIMs and took a look into the sim tray but all pins are still there.
I then relocked the bootloader, unlocked it again and flashed the original images aswell as the radio but nothing works
UPDATE: I managed to get my reception back. I flashed the radio again had no reception, then flashed twrp and wiped data, cache and dalvik cache.

I got the same problem after rooted and flashed cm11 rom. Whatever I do, flash a different band, kernel or wipe everything, it just can't work. The provider is wind.ca and fido.ca. they both are no service. Someone help us plz.

From his message it seemed his issue didn't go away.

are you stock or rooted?
did you try to flash full stock images then reset the phone?

I have the same problem. After I rooted and flashed to a CM rom my service was gone.
I flashed back to stock with radio/bootloader/system/cache/recovery the whole shabam.
I deleted cache, dalvick and everything else. Nothing helped with getting back my signal.
Is there a new work around for this? I seem to have tried everything that has been posted on XDA. Or am I missing something abvious?
Who can help me?
(ps my sim card works just fine in my gf's phone.)

[Q] Help On G2X

Im Having Problems with my G2x Yes its Rooted it was working fine for a couple of months then today i was just texting and it just rebooted and its like it cant read my SIM card i cant get no signal So can any body help me?
It can't get no signal? So then it does get a signal. Anyhow....
1. Try turning airplane mode on then off
2. Try rebooting
3. Does it say Invalid SIM? Because if it does that's one thing if it doesn't it's a phone issue and can be caused by some ROMs
4. Repeat 1 and 2 above but standing out side where there is no question of signal quality.
5. If at this point you still have no signal tell us what ROM and kernel you have, and under volting or over clocking.

go into recovery, and try wiping cache, see if that fixes it. if not make a backup and wipe data. if it still is not fixed then try flashing a different ROM (even a gingerbread one if needed) and post back what you find.
if none of this helps your sim card might be busted, in which case call your local t-mobile store

did you follow the directions above?
if you did then one last step you can take is to use the LG KDZ flasher tool to completely and 100% restore the phone to factory condition (do a search in the development section)
this tool has been know to brick phones, so only do it if you have done all of the above things that i suggested.
if that doesn't work then it is most likely a hardware problem, which means you have a phone sized tablet now

[Q] No signal anymore

Hey guys... I recently encountered a problem with my nexus 5. Suddenly my phone lost signal and it won't receive any more signal.I was on the latest version of PA on 4.4.2 ...... Now I factory reset my phone and it's stuck on phone setup... What do I do?? I'll try flashing back to stock later and I'll see if it's fixed... Also, before factory resetting my phone, I checked my IMEI and it isnt gone.... It was still there.. Strange... Any suggestions on what I should do? Also, I don't have a nandroid backup....

Still no luck
Guys... Returning to stock didn't do anything... Still the same problem... Now I'm stuck in setting up the phone since it shows that my sim is inserted and it's trying to activate the sim... But it stays there forever ... I'm pretty sure it's a problem with the sim holder... When I tried removing the SIM card for the phone, it failed to eject my SIM card... Now I have to find a way to get my sim out... When I use the pin, it only opens 1/8.. It's too small to fit anything in it... What do I do?? Running out of ideas...
I could give my phone for repair but I live in Dubai and I don't think there are any service centers here...

No mobile data Connection with correct APN

Hello,
I am using my OnePlus One (64GiB) several days already but today i expierenced a total no data connection. It connects to WiFi and uses the Internet with no problems but if it comes to the mobile data connection it can't connect to the Internet while I have full network shown on the upper right corner. I can call and send SMS with no Problems. This Problem appeared just today and i called my service provider and they say that there is no problem with there network availability and I should check my APN settings which I checked and they are correct. Then the customer consultant said it could be my phone.
I inserted a SIM card from another service provider but it also does not connect to the mobile Internet connection.
So it seems to be that there is some faulty settings on my phone or even an defect. How can I fix that?
Thanks in Advance.

That's strange! It seems like a very random glitch then, which often seem to fix themselves as randomly as they occur.
Have you tried rebooting your device, turning off/on data? Also, in Settings>Mobile Network Settings, is your preferred network type set to LTE, or the highest that's there?

If yes and yes, then I'm not sure what could be the problem, considering how it WAS functioning previously. I would just suggest to keep rebooting and fiddling with the Network settings, such as turning off/on data, verifying APN settings, checking Network Operator, making sure SIM is properly inserted, etc.
I wish I knew exactly what was wrong, but I'm not sure.

Hi,
I have the same problem. I only had the phone for three weeks now and two days ago internet stopped working in the middle of browsing/watching you tube video. Did not start since even though I've tried several methods (except factory reset, as I want to leave that one as last resort.
Is there any other way than factory reset to fix it ?
Do you all have franco kernel installed?

I lost the internet connect when I installed CM12 Nightly -> thought it was a bug in the ROM and sorta lived with it.
But when I reverted to 11-S I realized that the internet connection didn't work on that rom either. I've tried everything factory reset - Soft/Hard - reset -> flash other rom's on it. EVERYTHING!!! -> I also tried a couple of different SIM-cards none of them worked, I tried to contact my ISP, they couldn't help me, they said I had all the right settings so it's most likely something with my phone...
I've got no idea on how I can fix it. and would love if anyone could help me sort this problem out -> I don't have any important data on the phone so we can reset it as much as needed...

I did ask One Plus about it, they send me this zip (re-uploaded) http : // www . mediafire . com / download / rmuaie7f8ch5dji / ONEPLUS % 2BONE - StockRecovery - Windows . zip
(can't post links yet) which I then ran to fix the problem. just be aware of that it locks your bootloader again, if you don't want it to lock your bootloader edit the .bat files and delete the line which says "fastboot oem lock" and you should be good to go (worked anyways for me).
Thanks a ton this really was Helpful.. I guess OnePlus One has a glitch 11.1 and now also with 12.1 CM.. Will try Factory Restore and will update.. Same thing happen with my Frnd in India.. who switch between SP's. He had to restore to fix the internet issue.
I have had the same problem on one of my oneplus 2's. One phone works fine. The other phone was working but is not connecting to Internet using data connection. I have checked the settings and they are exactly the same as the other phone which is working fine.

My Oneplus is very peculiarly dropping network when try to call

I am very perplexed by this very peculiar problem which apparently no one has
I bought my OPO here in UK, it arrived swiftly and i could not be happier. But wait, curiosity killed cat( in this case me) I was able to use my OPO regularly but i did a mistake and saw coloros posted on oneplus development and gone ahead and installed it via fastboot.
Next day reverted back to CM11S via fastboot.
Now the whole time my EE sim was in the phone. One day morning i can't able to make calls, as soon as I try to call nice 4g signal goes completely down and phone give message that no mobile network.
I tried vodafone and O2 sim which sim to work nicely but now no network all.
I got new EE sim, and voila again comes back network after factory reset. I try to make a call and again the same thing; network goes out completey.
Please help.
I have already put the request with paypal requesting refund, now I don't know what will happen
But in meanwhile if there is something I can do please let me know, also some senior members can explain why is this happening
Try installing the latest radio/modem. Download the latest OTA here, then extract the file called NON-HLOS.bin.
Reboot into fastboot, do fastboot flash modem path/to/NON-HLOS.bin, reboot, and see if that helps.
Your network problems are probably because you still have the ColorOS radio image.
Try setting it to WCDMA Preferred, or LTE/GSM (Auto PRL) which is what I use... it doesn't completely solve the problem for me but it helps in most areas.

I agree with him. It seems like your phone is getting 4G signal but since the OPO does not have Voice over LTE (VoLTE), your phone is forced to go back into 3G mode in order to make the phone call. Set it to LTE/GSM (Auto PRL) as what hashim said and it should fix your problem. Your phone is probably on 4G only mode.
The same thing happened to me on Fido in Canada. I side loaded the 30O update and went back to 25R. When I reverted I was not able to accept any calls or texts. My phone would get the com.android.phone force stop error. I tried deleting the data from the phone, contacts, and Sim Toolkit apps but ultimately had to do a factory reset from recovery to fix the issue. Lost all my progress on Final Fantasy VI too..
Guys I love xda community my problem is solved

[Android 5.1] no service

My phone has suddenly stopped having any service whatsoever, I have tried everything, factory reset, format data, but have still been unable to get anything. I tried playing around with the radio settings and the APN but that hasn't worked either. If anyone has some ideas, they would be welcome.
Did you try putting the sim card into another phone?

Pay the bill
Does the SIM status screen show your phone number and IMEI? I had a Galaxy Nexus once that quit working, and those were blank (or maybe it said unknown) in the status screen. I figure possibly the EFS partition developed a fault or got corrupted.
I flashed the 5.0.1 radio and was able to get service again and can now text but I'm still unable to call anyone.Whenever i try to dial the number it simply goes silent, loses service and ends the call. I am also still unable to receive calls as well,all calls people attempt seem to cause me to lose service and only get a voice mail afterwards.
I haven't checked the sim status screen yet and I am unsure as to how.

You can always flash back if their is no improvement
Thanks for the suggestion but I have already done so and I have observed no improvement. am beginning t suspect that it may be an issue with the EFS but I'm not sure what steps to take to verify this.

After flashing 5.01 radio, did you try to wipe cache and dalvik cache? Maybe the phone process still has bad cache (if possible). Just a try! I hope it works. Otherwise there is some big problem
Thanks for the advice. I am considering filing an RMA with google although I'm unsure if I'll be covered since I live in Canada

If you suspect EFS corruption, try restoring any TWRP backup you made prior to the problem.
The EFS partition will be present in the backup, unless you unchecked if you checked that partition in TWRP Backup.

The first one I updated using 5.1 factory image. Reverted to 5.0 Factory image and it worked again. So, I update by OTA to 5.01 and then to 5.1, same results. This drives me crazy! I want 5.1 on my Nexus
BTW I have D821 model. Any suggestion?

Your right.
Thanks for correcting me:good:
There is another topic on this matter (i.e. common problem): http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/sim-card-recognized-upgrade-to-nexus-5-t3054267
For me it helped, ejecting and reinserting the SIM card. But I had also flashed other ROMS and cleaned the SMS/call/contacts database. So not sure why it worked.
I also notice that my System UI frequently stops. Does anyone have a stock System UI for me? Many thanks!
I am having similar issue and SIM status shows Radio off, how do I turn on?
Thanks.
