My nexus 5 will not read any sim card at the moment. I flashed back to stock 4.4.3 and ever since that, no matter what carrier sim card I put in, I get no call reception. The phone is recognizing there is a sim in because I flashed a custom ROM and whenever I put in a sim from T-Mobile,att, etc., there APN settings come up. I have no idea what's going on. I am no noob. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Restore a nandroid if you have one. It should fix it.
Flashing factory images didn't help me to recover the network signal and to detect the sim card.

Yes it's possible. Are you trying to just return to stock/another rom or do you want to flash back your nandroid?There's an easy way to flash zip files through twrp easily. *adb sideload*

I've tried that... No dice. I've tried everything. At this point I'm guessing its hardware. Although it doesn't make much sense that the phone is recognizing there is a sim in just will not connect to a network. This is a major bummer.

Yep. Same thing happened to me. It would detect my sim, it would connect to WiFi, but it wouldn't connect to mobile data. I flashed almost everything I could find and nothing worked. Just RMA it.

So I'm trying to fix a phone for someone but I can not find a way. Basically the phone says the IMEI is all 0's and even if you put a sim in it has a O with a line through it instead of service bars but still shows the 4G icon. Also it has all this stuff written on the screen that I've attached pictures of. Going into the settings says all 0's for the IMEI. I've tried factory resets and using ODIN to flash stock but no luck, I've thought of just restoring the IMEI but not to sure that would solve it
Yeah it looks like you need to restore the IMEI. Worth a shot
EFS is wiped and needs to be reprogrammed. Did this happen randomly? You can take it to Verizon and they can fix it as long as the device isn't blacklisted.

Can you get the phone to download mode? If yes you can get the phone restored to original settings. Based on this picture your kernel might be messed up. It is just a guess.

If you didn't mod the system files then the original owner did. To resolve, flash stock factory 4.4.2 images. If you did a factory reset when you got the phone, and don't want to start over, flash the img files one at a time with fastboot (excluding userdata.img).
If you don't know how to do that, check out the stickies (I think in general). There is a very detailed thread there.
The phone was brand new when I got it. I believe it said update ready for download when I did the factory reset.. Now it just says that..

no need to reset. but i prefer to do it to prevent any system app from crashing and to have a fresh firmware.
All you had to do was connect to wifi. That update required you to do that. "Via wifi only".

You might have to Odin flash the stock firmware. Sdcard0 is the internal sdcard. It might be hardware failure. I'd flash the stock firmware and see if you still have the problem

Yeah i was just hoping to not hear that. I bought the phone about 3 montha ago for $100 but whatever. I just got a note now. But thanks for the reply anyway!!
Today I received a phone recharge, and the first 5 minutes after this recharge everything was good, but then, with no sense, my smartphone didn't receive the signal.
Like I said, the first 5 minutes the device is good, in fact I called my friend with no problems...
I tried to change the SIM, but it doesn't work anyway...
What can I do?

Assuming the reprovision didn't work and you can confirm its not the SIM card damaged.. You could always flash a different radio in recovery or return to stock 4.4.4 via factory image to verify its not the software it'll also flash the latest stock radio.

Install Philz Touch. Wipe all partitions and flash vomer's stock 4.4.4 rom via recovery. This should be enough in most cases to rule out a software issue. But I agree, fastboot cleaning has solved my problems which recovery wipes couldn't!
