Hello people. I searched for info on this issue, but nothing for the Captivate came up. Intermittently I'll wake my phone up and there will be a little circle with a line through it where there should be network info. Anything I try to do with the network pops up a "Not registered on network" (or something like that) message. Usually rebooting the phone will solve the problem, but last weekend after three reboots it was still doing it. I left my house and an hour later checked it and no circle/line icon. This happens every several days, so not a chronic problem yet. Still very annoying. Any solutions? Thanks.
Stock Captivate.
I would consider warranty return if it were me I havent seen or heard of this before your post. good luck.
I have a stock captivate and let's just say I am incredibly disappointed and annoyed with it and at&t in general I'm tired of all the run around and hold up concerning froyo, but this isn't the thread for that.
My phone has been glitchy since the get go. The newest is the issue with "not registered on network". It has happened off and on, but a couple days ago, after I had turned the phone off for the night and back on, the phone screen blanked out while the bottom touch panel stayed lit and everything became totally unresponsive. After several reboots by removing the battery, my screen finally came up again, but so did that little blue circle and line...voila..."not registered on network"
The guy in tech support from at&t tried to help me out. He stayed on the phone with me for over 2 hrs trying to correct the issue, but even after a factory wipe...nada. Lost all my apps, free and purchased... if we would have froyo like promised, all my apps would have been backed up...UGH...
This is actually my third captivate in as many months. My first phone bricked itself after 2 days. No one could ever figure out why. I am waiting on a replacement as we speak. Of course my "new" phone is being replaced with a refurbished one. I hate that considering my current phone was only 3 months old and didn't have a mark on it, but what can I do?
because you don't mention if you're running stock or a custom ROM, I'm going to assume custom ROM. and if you are, then you must have not searched very hard because this is already a semi-known issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864903
it happens to me ANY time I use a modem newer than JK3... when I use UGJK3 or older, no problems... but if I use UGJK4 or newer, random "no service" on the lock screen with the "circle with a line through it" in the notification bar. as of right now (I believe) there's no known issue why some modems fail on only some hardware. I have a batch 1006 and it works fine right up until the UGJK3 modem, while some people seem to have absolutely no issues with modems (even the newest ones like UGJL2 and TLJL3). basically, if you're running a JPY based ROM, flash JK3 and see if that helps... if that doesn't, go back to a stock captivate ROM of some sort with a stock modem so you don't have these issues (never happened to be me on JI6/JJ4)
Try changing ur SIM card. That could solve the issue.
In my case, it is original stock all the way. The SIM card is fine because I switched it into two different at&t phones and had no issues at all. Right now my Captivate is a gloried camera and MP3 player.
I forgot to subscribe to my own stinking thread! I know this is stale now, but here goes.
I'm running stock froyo, rooted. At the time of the original post I was using it completely stock on eclair. Shortly after the post, it stopped happening and haven't had issues since. I still don't know what caused it. Thanks for all the input though.

Happened to me a year or so ago on a different phone. Turned out they were upgrading the tower closest to me with new hardware and were shutting it down intermittently to work on it.
Okay I have been having the t-mobile "invalid sim card" issue and the phone currently is running with the t-mobile carrier logo. I was able to make calls, and connect via WiFi. I am not able to access the web2go page when I select data in the "wireless & network settings" page with a check. I used to be able to at least access this page with wifi turned off and it would show a little 4g icon on the top? I will post some screenshots. I downloaded GeRIL just to see what it said? I think my phone is rooted? I ran superuser and said the phone was not but the last action I did before getting the t-mobile to show up was a zip restore with CWM so I assume it's rooted? Might be just a flash? One other thing is that I have the WiFi and GPS on and it does not appear to get my location for weather in the weather app?? I can open Google maps and GPS is within 60 meters of my location. I want to reboot the phone but am afraid it won't be back to normal and I will get the error "Invalid Sim Card" again? Is there anything or tests to run while the phone is on the t-mobile network I should check first before rebooting? Or files I should try to use or flash? Or any service menu codes to run diagnostics? Thanks in advance. I forgot to mention that I will be getting a replacement from t-mobile in a week, I did the online chat and they said they will send a replacement under warranty. The box has a date of 7/29/2011 so the phone is about 3-4 months old? The phone is unlocked and has been rooted before, but the issue happened days before I modded this G2x. Basically, today it could connect and tomorrow it might not...or If I reboot It usually goes to the "Invalid Sim Card" I have read other posts with issues of the same type from other users but found no solutions?? Baseband, RIL, Sim ect...all points to a bad phone(using t-mobile) because If I use any other carrier card in the phone it works without errors. That makes me think it's a firmware with t-mobile issue but I could be wrong? Hopefully if the replacement goes thru the same ICS 4.0 will be out and make this phone a beast again?
This might work or it might not: rename your APN manually (Settings/Wireless/Mobile networks/Access Point Names/edit) you can either edit or restore to default to restore mobile data connectivity. Try restoring to default.
I just accidentally hit Airplane mode and it killed it!!! Now it's back to the Invalid Sim Card error again...bummer!!!!
Wait a minute...I waited and read a few posts and clicked the Airplane mode off and on again and it came back to the t-mobile carrier..??? I still have not rebooted the phone though? Hmmm...should I?
Did you get a new sim card when you got the phone? I remember when I got this phone they told me not to use my 5 year old sim card from my previous phone. I say try a new sim card, if that doesn't work try to reset the apn with the instructions I posted last, and if that doesn't work it might just be a bad sim card reader.
I think more on the lines of a bad sim card reader...I have a new sim card...about a 3 days old, got it from t-mobile cause i had the older sim with the larger gold contact patch. The phone is already on order...they said 7 business days..

Yes some times that will work. Other times might take 2 reboots. Also sometimes toggleing airplane mode can bring back apn. After a few sim cards and all my problem went away. When I had the issue I was cm7 rom. Stock Rome didn't really seam to have this issue.
just to close this thread I already received my replacement phone from tmobile. I am no longer trying to track down the issue. Thanks for all of the replied and comments. every one who contributed will get a thanks from me.

Yes doing a hard reboot will reset the Apn/data loss problem. (Also toggling airplane mode would some times reset it.) This is only a tempory solution as it could happen again. On cm7 rc1 it would happen to me at least once a day. As well as many others. Off of the top of my head it was something wrong in a radio file.(? Not sure what file) shortly after the release cm7 stable 7.1.0.1 was posted. I believe that had the patch for the data loss issue. It is possible that some cm7 based Rome may still have a data issue loss as they might not have the updated patch. At the time stock based Roms did not have the issue and as far as know. Some people faced with this issue could have had a faulty sim or phone. The other thing that was happening during the life of this issue was how many people running cm7 based roms didn't have the issue. I no longer have this issue. I followed the bug report that was submitted and sealed out the sim card twice. (I think it was cm7 issue on my device) OP- I hope that this swap works for you. If it don't, I will be more that happy to help. also thank you for your service.
I have posted what I know and can remember here in hopes that it can help some one else out in the future.

When I had the phone I installed CM7, and the daily's...ect..It WAS a phone issue (hardware) I now have had the replacement phone for 1 week and no issues what so ever. That's not to say that the issue will arise again? I have rooted and am running no ROMs at the time but am thinking of going back to the FROYO 2.2 just to get the camera like it was in the older version. I hate the camera in GB 2.3.3. No zoom....c'mon LG..where did you guys lay down to sleep during this process if the development? One other feature that has nothing to do with the camera that I would like to see happen is to be able to enable a bluetooth mouse. I tried my Targus mouse and no luck. I think you can use a bluetooth keyboard but have none to test. I was thinking of shelling out the 160 smackers for the infared keyboard..small and can fit in your shirt pocket, and it's bluetooth.
Hey so I just got the skyrocket a few days ago and everything was working great until today. A few hours ago I got a text message and Facebook notification at the same time and the phone froze up for some reason. After I locked and unlocked the phone a few times it started to work again however the drop down notification menu has stopped working. I can't drag it down anymore but I still can bring it up through the menu soft key. I tried rebooting, pulling the battery (while phone was still on), and even factory reset it through the recovery menu but nothing worked. AT&T tech support couldn't fix it so I was wondering if anyone here experienced this or knew of a fix? I wasn't planning on rooting/putting a ROM on this phone, but if I have to in order to fix it I will. Any help would be great, thanks.
a new rom would probably fix it but i would go back to att and have them exchange it for a new one because you have 30 from when you get it that its covered by att
Take it back...
Definitely take it back.

I also just upgraded and now I have the wifi error. I'm sure HTC has been notified of this bug and are working on it, but it seed like a lot of people before me got the upgrade a couple days ago and didn't run into such problems... I'm in Houston, Texas if that helps any

That's not the exact same problem if you're losing wifi. So far, only mobile data is dying for me.
It looks like Tmo or HTC fubar'd the radio with this release.
If you have WiFi problems, get WiFi fixer from the market, it will say it was unsuccessful then reboot. it should work,after, even though it said unsuccessful.
Still not okey.................

I tried the way.
My Wifi is still completly dead. Are there any other ways?
WiFi working fine for me. Will test data tomorrow when back in coverage.
Well, I spoke too soon. My wifi is unreliable too. It seems to disconnect very frequently when the phone is sleeping even though I have 'always on' checked and have toggled it off and back on just to make sure.
thanks a lot tmo. I had a reliable radio before this update. I should have listened to that little voice telling me to wait.
Here's an exchange I just had with tmo support.
Customer Chat
%Mary G: I apologize for the inconvenience. What is the issue with the update? I can help with that.
michael harrison: I've had my phone almost two weeks and had very reliable 4G (Dallas area) and mostly reliable wifi. The only problem with wifi is that sometimes I'd get back home and it wouldn't automatically connect. I'd have to turn wifi off and back on. Except for that, the radio was solid.
Bluetooth was also reliable though the range was only about 20'
Since the update, 4G, wifi and bluetooth are very unreliable.
Mobile data drops out for no reason (I can be sitting in one location and it will completely disappear), wifi is turning off or losing the connection frequently while the phone is sleeping (I have the option to keep wifi on always turned on) and bluetooth has a range of about 4'
%Mary G: I see that our Engineering is working on this issue for the HTC One S. If you want to go back to the old version, we can do master reset for the phone.
%Mary G: For that step, I apologize, at this time we are not able to provide additional assistance for your issue via live chat. Please contact one of our Technical Care representatives at 1-800-937-8997 from a phone other than your T-Mobile handset. Please select the appropriate voice prompt and your call will be forwarded to a representative for assistance. Thank you for choosing T-Mobile, we value your business!
Master freakin' reset?!
I noticed that my 4G seems to go to sleep and does no work until I for a lack of a better word "Wake up the phone"
One more for the radio-problem pile...
It appears that if I'm on Wifi and I start a GPS app (like my tracks) and drive out of wifi range, I'll never get a mobile data connection. Wifi cut off (at least, the icon disappeared) but even closing the app (and verifying that the gps icon went away) doesn't result in mobile data coming on line.
I had to go into airplane mode and back out. The I ended up with a 4g connection.
Is it just me or does the throughput speed now suck AFTER the update?
I used to get 12-14mbps down and 6-7 up, and now im getting 4.5 down, 1.5 up.

Funny you blame T-Mobile as they are NOT software developers. You need to be pointing that finger at HTC.
can't shut off the phone after update
I got my new HTC One S yesterday and the first thing I did after activating it was a manual check for updates.
I knew I should have checked the forums first but I'm an update junkie.
I guess I have been running CM7 for too long and I forgot about how bad the HTC OTA to 2.3.3 on my Inspire 4G was.
I haven't seen a post yet about not being able to turn off the phone after the update.
I press and hold the power button on the top and the Shut Down/ Airplane mode/ Restart menu comes up.
I select Shut Down and the phone does what looks like a Fast Boot restart instead of shutting down. I checked the settings and confirmed that Fast Boot is turned off.
What happens is after I select Shut Down I get the T-Mobile good buy animation and then I briefly see the previous shut down menu and then I get the T-Mobile Android rocket animation and then I'm back in the OS. No black screen, no white screen with the HTC logo and it all happens very quickly.
I tried a Restart and that does a normal full shut down and restart where I get the good buy animation and the screen goes black for a second then I get the white screen with the HTC logo then the rocket animation then the OS. All very normal looking.
Holding down the power button for about 10 seconds to force a power off does shut down the phone but it turns back on 3 seconds later with a normal looking start up.
This is a brand new phone that had the factory shipped ROM and no apps even installed. It was able to be powered off before I installed the OTA.
I tried this with the case on and off to make sure it wasn't the case putting pressure on the buttons.
This isn't a huge deal as I don't normally leave my phone off but I can't take this on an airplane as some carriers still make you turn off all electronic devices during take off and landing.
Update: I was going to take eminembdg advice and go to a Tmo store and try to get the phone replaced after work today. But after showing the nifty shutdown reboot bug to a few friends the phone now actually shuts down correctly and stays off. I guess it's like when you take your car to the mechanic because its making this funny noise and then it stops making the noise just as you pull up in front of the shop.
My data speed got slower too.

My wifi started saying error every time I tried to turn it on. After speaking with htc they told me that I needed to do a master reset because It is impossible to downgrade to an earlier version or even the stock one without resetting. So stupid me believes and resets, NOPE still on the newest update with a cleanly wiped phone.

Hey all, this my very first post here and I am quite nervous haha. Been a huge fan of the website and I have solved many issues thanks to the vast amount of resources, however I have come across one no one seems to have had.
My Note 5 recently starting having issues with service, where it displays full signal (as in bars, no 4G or E, just cellular bars) but my phone doesn't actually have service. If I try to make a phone call all it gives me is "Not registered on network." and if I try to send out a text message, similar messages saying I am not connected to the connect pop up.
Things I have tried:
Manually trying to connect to a network through the Network operators setting in the general setting. This leads to it displaying my network and a couple other after searching (my network is T-Mobile) but when I try to click on it to connect to it, it says its cannot be connected at the time.
I have tried booting the phone into safe mode, but with nothing different.
I have tried putting my sim card into another phone, and it works perfectly fine in the other phone.
Besides that, I am stuck. I have given it a couple days to do nothing, but as I tried putting my sim card and testing it again today, nothing is different.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all!!

I did try that. However, when my network comes up after searching for it, I cannot register to it, and it says "Unable to select network. Select Automatically"
Furthermore, it doesn't seem to be able to connect to any of them. I have T-Mobile, but when I click on the AT&T network, the same thing happens.
After searching for a while, the phone just gives up.

Yup, Data is turned on. But its not just data that isn't working, phone calls and text can't get sent out. I'll try to take some screenshot tonight and post them, is there anything I should focus on in terms of screenshotting?
Here are some screenshots of various places where I have checked the network connection. I just did a factory reset on it yesterday to check if that would fix anything but it really didn't do anything as far as I can tell.
Here are the remaining:
I have the same issue. Tmobile note5.
My tmobile note5 is doing the same thing. The phone is not even a month old. It worked fine for first 3 weeks then just out of nowhere stopped getting cell service. I can use wifi of only. Tmobile will not in store swap it because they didn't have a case in Stock of any brand when I purchased it and I dropped it walking out of the store cracking the backplate ever so slightly. Yes they denied replacing it then also even when it was less then 20 minutes old and didn't even get 3 feet past there door. It would not be cracked if they kept cases for there most advertised phone I stock. It did work still just fine example after taking minor cosmetic damage. Now this lack of cell service deal is happening and I have no choice but to do an insurance claim on it for $175 when I haven't even made the first payment on the brand new phone. Please tell me you have found a solution to the service problem.
Mine suffered something very similar, I've had the phone maybe around 6 months. I had a case on mine for a while but when I took it off, I notice that the glass backing was slightly cracked. Hardly noticeable honestly and it worked fine for 3-4 months. One day it just randomly stopped working, I've yet to find a fix, I might take it in to a phone repair store just to get a diagnostic as I'm thinking it's more of a hardware problem than software.
I'm in another state right now but then I get back home I'm going to try and go back before the update and see if that changes anything
I will post my results in about 5 days when I'm home.
Great thanks, that's a good idea, I'll do that as well this weekend after my midterms. I'll keep you all posted.
FIXED IT!
So I was bored and started to fiddle with my sm-n920t to fix the no cellular service problem after the 6.0.1 update and stumbled across the issue. So after days and endless hours of trying to solve this issue, I decided to check one last thing before flashing it to a previous version and here is my fix. So you need to go to settings, then ( more connection settings), then ( Wi-Fi Calling), then make sure you have the option set to (Cellular Network Preferred) . In my case the new 6.0.1 update set it to (Never use Cellular Network). This made it unable to connect to a tower therfore no calls, text, or Internet outside of Wi-Fi.

I hope this is what your issue is. Please let me know if it fixes it for ya. Good luck man! I also have some pictures that can guide you through the steps I took screen by screen with red drawing I put on it to mark buttons needed to be hit but I can't get them to upload for some reason.

Congratulations sir haha, that must be a wonderful feeling to get your Note 5 up and running again.
It is unfortunately not the fix for me though. My phone straight up tells me "No Service" when I scroll down the notification bar.
I truly fear that it is a hardware issue, rather than a software issue.
Thanks for the post though, I am sure it will help someone else.
Dang I was really hoping it was your fix also. I still wanna help ya though. I have 4 more days until I drive home to Colorado and nothing to do in the mean time. Try to take a few screen shots of your problem so I get an idea and have something to work on for a few days lol.

Go to where you type in phone numbers and put this in

Then screen shot it and post it

Heyyyy you live in Colorado too? I live in Denver/Fort Collins myself haha.
Thanks for the help, I have already posted a couple screenshot but here is the one from the dialer.
No kidding? I'm in longmont and my cousin's live in loveland/ ft Collins. I will message you my number on here shoot me a text when ya get a chance so I got your number and I will hit you up when I get home I got many solutions I did on my phone before finding the fix. And if you ever need computer parts I have a garage full of everything from graphics cards to cpu's to full built towers for game and workstation towers for graphic design and stuff.
Well all, found the issue. Turns out the (insert foul language here) person who sold me the phone either reported it stolen or stop making payments on the phone, thus blacklisting my IMEI.
Learned my lesson, never to buy smartphones again on Craigslist...
Wow really that's low. What a feminine cleaning utensil.

That may just be my new favorite insult. Though I must say I'll probably get in trouble somehow for using that haha

This happened to me years ago, pretty infuriating. Things have changed now tho, always check the imei, tmobile has a checker on its website now that will tell you if the phone has a balance on it or not.
