Sometimes something as simple as setting the APN incorrectly for your carrier can cause you to be stuck on Edge. Are you sure that your APN is set right?

are you sure that your provider is providing more than edge in your area? first thing i would do is call your provider.

[Q] How to get my Nexus S working ?

Hi, this is my first post
Last year I found a new Nexus S outside Undergroung (subway), when I got home I checked and it worked fine with my simcards (vodafone and t mobile) I but never used it really.
My phone is now broked and I tried to use this Nexus but any simcard I insert is now not working everything else is fine, wifi, apps etc. It just won't recognise any simcards.
When I try to make a call it says " mobile network not available".
I searched the forum but found nothing to solve the issue. I have taken it to my local repair shop and they couldn't help me. It has the ice cream sandwich android version 4.0.4.
Can anyone here help me with getting the sim to work ? : )
Did it have ICS when you found it? Also, what model is it? (I9020A, I9020T, I9023?)
It did not. I updated it.
Its I9023.
Any more info required?
How did you update it?
I'd try to flash the factory image with fastboot and see if simcards work.
Maybe it got reported lost so IMEI got disabled

Right, did you obtain the phone legally (purchase), or did you find the phone lying around and picked it up?

Would they still do it ?
Try flashing it back to an earlier version like 2.3.6

If it was reported stolen, no, if anything they might report you for having a stolen device

Hand it in to the police. If no one claims it within some time frame, it's yours (at least true for uk)
Then if you do get to keep it, then you can ask your network to unblock the imei, and cite the police reference so they know it's legit

Do ths first: http://nexusshacks.com/nexus-s-root/how-to-root-nexus-s-or-nexus-s-4g-on-ics-or-gingerbread/
then using the recovery (power+volume up) flash the second one if your phone is i9023 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572307 there you go, stock 2.3.6, rooted.
I do suggest you hand this to the police, for legal purposes only

[SOLVED] 3g not working in India

Well, i haven't used 3g till now, and today activated it, only to find that it doesnt work.
DDKP3
BCK Kernel Beta 13
Deodexed
No other mods.
Network mode is automatic
When i select WCDMA only. The phone is not able to connect to the network.
And on automatic, the phone stays on EDGE only
Anyone insights on it?
Had read Argentine people having 3g problems long ago. Anyone from there can help?
Also had read somewhere that it might be a CSC problem. I checked using *#1234# to see if CSC is unknown, but its proper.
More info from further posts and replies -
Service provider is Vodafone India.
Confirmed that its a phone problem, by using the SIM in another phone [SE Xperia Arc], and it worked on it.
SOLUTION -
Well, I had removed the sim to try it on another phone, and well on putting it back in the phone, it worked!
I actually feel like a noob after this!
Anyway, thanks everyone for trying to help!
I'm using 3g.... its working great!!! What service do you use? Also are u sure you have subscribed to 3G services... sometimes it takes a while to get activated.

Work with your operator. Which state are you in ?

Vodafone and ICS 4.0.4

Yea, obviously it isn't a general problem faced by all.
I guess, someone who's faced such a problem only might be able to help.
Had read alot of people having such issues, but now searching isn't giving quite the required results.
If you can, try your SIM card into another smartphone which is confirmed working with 3G, just to be sure the problem comes from your phone.

[Q] flashed an other nexus 5' EFS backup. no 3G/4G network no IMEI

Hi everyone.
This is the first time I publish in this forum, so apologise my beginner's manneer
I did a big mistake, when I bought my new Nexus 5, I wanted to restore all data from a backup I made on my older nexus 5 via TWRP custom recovery, and unfortunately i checked the EFS case, this caused my IMEI lose, & at the beginning, I had no network signal until I set up this one on Only EDGE. Now i have just no 3G & 4G network. This is so bad with a NEW purchased phone hope it will be an issue for this.
I tried flashing back to stock, everything failed, no IMEI (0) & NO 3G/4G.
Btw there's no Google/LG service in my country

There's not, unfortunately. You gotta send it in.
That's a harsh lesson to learn. I've made it a habit of backing up partitions separately for a few reasons including avoiding this situation. So easy to not pay attention at the wrong time.

Modem firmware question

.Are there any way to clue out which modem firmware that should work correct on the European version of OPO on Lineage os 7.1?
My phone only works well if I have LTE, on 3g and 3g plus it only works a few times, sometimes I cant call or people cant call to my phone.

The only way to know which firmware is best for you is to flash one by one and prefer which one gives you better results.

Maybe the OPO doesn't support the wcdma band that your carrier works on.

I wonder why they pulled it then? So you had it on 7.1 and then gone with 8.1 ? That's quite odd and I wonder if there is a Vodafone thread somewhere that explains it.
edit: quick search shows you're not the only one. Someone suggested the sim, someone else flashed back to 7.1 and then upgraded to 8.1 again and it was there. Very weird. I might try the sim route if you can get another one easily before I started flashing stuff.
I never used 7.1

I did some searching on this. Everything I found on it shows that the Pixel isn't supported for VoLTE yet. It also seems to be dependent on which country you're in.

That's probably the reason, thanks
Carrier dependent isn't it?
