[Q] Serious problem with g2x, no service baseband problem?

I seriously need help with this. My phone info is this
LG-P999
Android 2.3.3 stock
Baseband: M6600A-SCAUTNZ-2.0.9720T 1[JUL 15 2011 10:00:00]MP;TRULGE_08.09.02R_MDM.
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9
The phone has all the information about the carrier but does not connect to the network, it even recognizes a network with -89dbm but does not connect.
I don't know what's happening. When you start the wifi calling app it works but can't sustain a connection on its own. I need your phones baseband info to compare. Also i noticed on the hidden menu accessible by dialing 1809*#999# when you go to the modem setting the following menus says:
QCRIL/Android log on/off: not implemented yet (RIL)
PDP Setting: not implemented yet (RIL)
and so on with the others. I need help from people with working g2x to check this and compare the values, cause i don't know what to do. I have flashed several roms eve the stock, and i have noticed that when i flash the v10f and connect the phone to the computer the lg tool recognizes the phone as if it had the v21e leaving me without the possibility to upgrade the software, I think it is because of the baseband on the phone. I sincerely ask for your help on this. Thank you

I'd try requesting a replacement, or trying the Update method for refurbs.

Well i have tried all existing methods and nothing, cause the lg tools recognizes the actual phone model which is p999dw and wont let me upgrade because of the baseband version, and as for a replacement this is a phone o got from craigslist.

You seem to have the most current version, which makes me wonder about your SIM card. Perhaps you need a new one if it is an older SIM or possibly damaged.

Well My sim card is only 2 months old, it came with my htc sensation, whe I put it on the sensation works but not on the G2x i have also tried it on my father's hd2 and also works, Thank you all for your response, I feel very lucky to be an XDA member.
I will go to T-mobile tomorrow to get another sim and test.

You try a hard reset yet?
If not just hold the volume up rocker and power button for like 10 seconds and it will reboot.

Today i got a new sim card and nothing, still the same keep saying no service, when i try to call says not registered on the network

Did you ever get this issue resolved I am having the same problem...exactly, got a different sim and now I want to try to re-flash the base band if possible? Does anyone know of this issue and any way to fix without dealing with T-mobile?

Unfortunately I had this and I tried everything, went to a T-Mobile rep and they tried trouble shooting, switching sims, hard reset, I even changed roms, went back to stock froyo and gingerbread and still nothing. I'm having a new G2X replacement shipped to me free of charge from T-Mobile already. Go to your T-mobile rep and ask him to fix it (he will try and fail and will open a case with you) then if you have warranty you can get a replacement G2x.

I purchased my phone from some guy on Amazon, just try to go to a T-Mobile rep and don't tell them you purchased it off someone else even though they might be able to check.

Dial *#*#4535#*#* on your phone and give us screenshots of the phone status. Maybe that can give a clue as to what is going on. Scroll past your IMEI and do a screenshot (power and home) then scroll down to mid screen do another screenshot and then scroll all the way down and do a third screenshot. Post them here and maybe we can figure out what is going on. Did you make sure you have the correct RIL also? Some people with your issue have flashed CM7 nightly and then flashed back to another rom and this issue has gone away.

jboxer:
Will try...after a reboot or after I get the T-Mobile to load up again because that just gets me to the dialer again. I am in the process of making a video on Youtube and see if it helps resolve the issue...?? I SCREAM SANDWICH where are you...LOL!!

Do you have a tmo sim? U need to get the phone unlocked if u dont

Yes I do have a Tmo sim...and service.

You got took by the person on craigslist. Always test before you buy. #1 rule...

T-Mobile is also now blocking IMEIs from the network. So that is also a possibility, especially when the phone is showing that it recognizes the network, but won't connect.
I think the only way T-Mobile will block the IMEI is if someone used installments to get the phone, and then the account canceled before the first payment.

No..the phone did work when I tested it. It was not rooted or unlocked. It worked fine...all of a sudden it stopped? I can use any other carrier card and it will work flawlessly. I have a Straight Talk card and can plug it in and no problems..only the data is 2g(Edge) speed on the G2x. Calls and MMS and it shows AT&T as the carrier while the sim from Straight Talk is in. Only the T-Mobile one has an issue. I had the phone for more than 3 months without any problems. I don't think I got took if there weren't any apparent red flags at time of purchase. I took the sim from my old phone at time of purchase and said I want to check it out first and the previous owner agreed. I think the issue is with T-Mobile and the way their equipment works with LG G2x. I am posting a video on YouTube in the next few days to let people see what happens with different scenarios.

If the phone is working with Straight Talk (AT&T) and not T-Mobile then I do believe it is a blocked IMEI issue. The person that sold it to you probably stopped paying their bill. T-Mobile doesn't block the IMEI until they send the account to collection, which takes about three months or so. You can probably call TMO and ask them to check the IMEI and see if they blocked it (if the CSRs can check the blacklist database). This blocking of the IMEI is specific to T-Mobile only so it would not affect AT&T's network or using the phone on any other carrier in the world.

jboxer: Will check on that issue...thanks jboxer

Can I check any IEMI database? I checked one from a Australia database and it said the status is unlocked? Are there any United States places to check or do I need to contact T-Mobile?

[Q] Galaxy Nexus stolen, SIM card changed, able to trace back?

Dear forum,
let me just go straight to the point:
My Galaxy Nexus was stolen at work last friday. I tried to use some tracking software like Plan B but without succes, the SIM card had been changed allready.
Now here comes the part that gave me some hope.
When I went to My (Gmail) Account at the Android Market today (using my desktop), I noticed 2 things:
- First thing is that the record from the column "Carrier" has been changed from "Vodafone" to "KPN', so I think I can assume here that someone put another SIM card in it.
- Also at the column "Last Used" I see "February 13, 2012", which is yesterday (monday).
I was really wondering if there is a workaround or something to get more information (like the phone number of that SIM card?) than just the carrier of that SIM card and when it was last used?
Thanks in advance~

During the night push a remote lock app to the device, if they haven't changed the google user login by then. Then just lock the device. If the app shows it set a screen message offering reward for return. Better still make it scream while at work tomorrow.

The thing is, I only work at fridays and saturdays. I also think that the person is smart enought to not bring the phone to work when I'm around.
I thought maybe if I could get some more information with a workaround, I could catch the thief myself instead of waiting for him/ her to give it back (which probably isn't going to happen).

I hope you informed your managers.
You could have a look through the available apps in the market see if there is anything you can use to lock the phone remotely and or push some really nasty messages to it. If you ain't using why should they get the use of it think there may be some way of remotely wiping the phone aswell. Then at least it would be of no use to the thief anyway. Sorry I can't be of more help. I allways make sure I activate any built in phone finder and instal lookout, so never really had to deal with the issue

Note that the phone is stolen and SIM card has been changed allready. As far as I know you need to configure Prey on the phone itself, so not really remote like Plan B.
I'm still curious if there is a workaround to get more information about the SIM card than just the "Carrier" and "Last Used"?
Like.. are those the only two things that get stored or is there more information about the SIM card that I could get without having the phone itself?

If you have the IMEI you can contact your network and ask they put a block on the phone, a lot of the time it also blocks it off other networks as well.

i think the info about the sim like its number is by far more important than map location because if you got the thief's number then you can report that number to the police and mobile network .

This is pretty much what I'm aiming for since I allready have contacted the police and gave them the IMEI of the phone. They said like something like "We'll see what we can do", but I thought there would be some workaround (yeah I'm using this word alot) to get more information of that SIM card.
I think I can assume that the column "Carrier" which is shown on the screen, is read of the SIM card?
Question is, if anything else is shown somewhere in my Gmail (since it's linked to my Galaxy Nexus) or at the Android Market or something that might be of help?

do you know that mobile carriers can identify everything to a handset with just an IMEI
i don't know what is the procedures in your country but i think you should call that carrier and ask for directions especially if you have a proof of purchase or something similar
i wish you could luck friend

My question is, did you inform your carrier? Here, when that happened to my friend who wasn't too tech saavy, I called his carrier, had the phone blocked right away, and told them what network it was on via the same information that you received via email. The actually contact the manufacturer and the police and were able to track it down on their network, find the phone and press charges. That IMEI number is huge as it tells the carrier what exact tower the phone is connected to. In densely populated areas, that's 1-2km max. Cross reference the people at work that live in that area and boom. Done like dinner.

Yeah I know that, but I called both the police and my carrier and gave them my IMEI and asked if they could do such thing.. and both said that they can't do such a thing, ONLY if the phone has the original SIM card... I think they just don't want to help me at all.

Getting Cell Service with NO SIM! And some other guys number ! Help

I just bought a phone the guy who made no mention of the fact that it was rooted when I bought it. What is worse is he mentioned that his GF worked for Verizon, which did not seem to mean much at the time. Knowing that here is what i'm dealing with.
I was in a rush when I checked out the phone as I had to meet another person to pick one up for my wife as well. It's the sch-i575 in white 16gb. After having a minute to look at the phone it turns out he had Paranoid Android flashed and the phone was rooted. CRAP! Not what I was looking for and he was not upfront about it. The incredibly strange thing was that with NO SIMCARD the phone was getting 3g signal! I spent all night trying to unroot \ undo what he did. I managed to use ODIN to get back to the stock rom although I think it's still a rooted one since I still have the super user app. I got a sim card from verizon but since it was rooted I did not bring the phone in and when I tried to activate later it would not activate. My wife's by the way is working flawless and when I put my sim in her phone it works fine as well. I had to put the sim in my wife's phone and it activated there. Here is the crazy thing, with or with out a simcard the phone makes calls and has 3g internet only but when I make a call it uses HIS NUMBER!! I'm not sure what the hell to do, what could have he done? Any ideas? Please all help is appreciated! I did not think this was even possible for the phone to function w/o a sim. I'm worried about taking it in to Verizon because of the funkiness. Ty again for any insight...

I thought the I575 was an old slide phone. So A. your in the wrong section of the forum since this is Verizon's S3 or B. you mentioned the wrong device number? I saw phones before working and running on networks without sim-cards but that was years ago. If it is an S3, you sure it's a Verizon device? Also since you see 3g....can you browse around in the browser or make a phone call?

Yes, it's a galaxy s3 16gb in white. It looks like currently I was using the tar66 using ODIN. I'm reverting back to the bone stock one now. As far as the models go isn't the SCH-I575 the Verizon version of the S3?
I'm waiting on the stock unrooted rom to take through ODIN and will report back. Thank you for taking the time to try and help.
Ohh, yes the internet works and when I make phone calls with or with out my sim in it makes calls successfully but the other guys number shows up. What the heck did this guy do to the phone!

You are obviously absolutley correct. I'm frantically trying to figure this out. I have flashed the stock rom and don't have super user anymore. The problem persists with the guys number.
Could he have flashed a custom kernel and modem or does reverting back using the stock rom cover all that ?

I just double checked and I had the I535VRLAG1 version, yours is the I535VRALF2 in the link you posted trying this now. The crazy thing is that it even says that the sim is activated with MY number! but the calls are still comming from him. I even tried wiping the device and clearing the cache. I also tried to JUST flash the modem with VRLG1.modem.tar.md5 and nothing :\. Waiting on the file from your link to download and will try that.
Is it possible that this is being caused by something on Verizon's end? The phone ( with out the SIM ) is registered to him somehow? I know this is not normal but because his GF worked for Verizon could they have done something funky?

Yeah its definitely possible its from something she did to the phone but most likely nothing from Verizon's end. Does the IMEI number under status match the IMEI number under the battery?

Yes IMEI is the same in the OS as behind the battery.
The curious thing is that on the same screen in the OS where you find the IMEI there is also a field called Network and it says " Unknown"
It also has things like:
Eri v : 5
Mobile network type : EvDo-rev.a:8
The thing I keep coming back to is how is it possible for this phone to make calls\ have data with out a sim?
Starting to really think I got cheated

Cheated? Sounds like you have free Verizon service.
Roll with it. If you really want a bill you can have mine...

Just did and the same thing happened. I went to the Verizon store and the guy there had no idea and got me in touch with tech support from the store. They were dumbfounded and flat out said that what is happening is impossible. "It's impossible to make\receive phone calls with out a sim unless they are emergency" I harped on the fact that I am making phone calls as one of their other customers and that this is a big deal. In the end since I had the insurance and extended warranty they will ship me a new phone.

[Q] Network connection cuts out - Not registered on network

I have read a few threads about this issue, but none of them seem to be the same exact problem..
Right now I am running ParanoidAndroid 2.15 with InstigatorX 6.3.6 kernel.
When I first noticed the problem I was on PA 2.13/IX 6.3.6 I believe and I was using the UCLF6 modem.
My network connection was fine until one day I noticed that I had 0 connectivity and when I tried to make a phone call it said I wasn't registered on the network.
Sooo the issue..
My network connection constantly shows that I am not connected to the ATT network, sometimes the network is out for a good 5 minutes or so before it connects to it again. When it does connect to the network it usually shows up as connected to the Edge network..once in a while it will show 3g; I used to have full bars of 4g/hspa.
After a few minutes go by, the network connection cuts off and I am again once disconnected from the network.
From the time I had no problem with my connection to when it started disconnecting from the network I have no idea what happened.
Yes, I do flash ROMs a lot, but this seemed to happen over night. (I had not messed with my ROM for a good while and then BAM my network blows 'all of a sudden')
Things I have tried..
I have tried different roms, different modems, I have tried the whole airplane mode deal, tried pulling the batter, I have reverted back to stock using Odin and the stock ROM file. My IMEI number shows up correctly, my settings are default as far as allowing data connections ect.
I am not sure if there is anything I can do besides call up the warranty department and try and get a new phone, but I wanted to ask here before I did that.. I've already returned my phone like 2 or 3 times since February lol.

Try getting a new SIM card from AT&T. There is a $10 fee for it, but I had a similar problem and this fixed it for me. My phone would lose service and say "No SIM card inserted" then I would hit restart and everything would work except phone calls. I had to remove the SIM for a few minutes and put it back in in order to make or receive calls.

Not sure if this will help or not, but in the past I have had AT&T "re-initialize" my phone on their end and it has fixed some connectivity issues.
Good luck!

Backup and odin back to stock I727UCLF6 and see if the problem goes away. If yes then its possible you need to look for the AT&T LTE APN settings.

I've tried using Odin to stock ICS and also GB, but the problem still occurs =\

Did you unlock it?
Hey,
Did you unlock the phone? I have a similar issue, having had tried many different modems kernels and ROMs including the stock ones. It turns out that if the phone is unlocked then it will lose connectivity to lte and 3g. I get edge sometimes and one bar max but I cannot make a call out ever.
Unlocked it as I was travelling in the states and now Roger's says I voided my warranty by unlocking it. Tried a different sim card but I am only able to text right now, no calls. The only silver lining is the big three are starting to lower their prices a bit to compete with new competitors.Then again they make budget brands like koodo and public mobile to directly compete with the new entrants so unless the crtc steps in looks like we'll always get gouged.

Unlock it as in use it with a different carrier right? No I havent done that, just rooted it.
I've never had any problems with my connection until this JB rom I had on it =\

But have you verified the imei shown in settings > status is the same as what is on the sticker under the battery?

Yes, they are the same :crying:

Are you able to rule out the sim card as the problem?

I'm not 100%, but I don't have any warnings about my SIM card or anything

Same boat
I'm having the same issue with my Galaxy Note 717r on Canadian carriers Rogers and Telus
I keep getting the Error 'Not registered on Network'
On Rogers, if I select GSM only, it will register on the Network and connect with EDGE speeds
It has been Carrier unlocked at some point but it was working that way for a while. You can check by using this service code: *#7465625#
Tried multiple SIM cards that work with other phones.
Verified that the IMEI number matches what is on the sticker *#06# Rogers told me if I can make calls on the GSM network than the IMEI isn't blocked. Don't know if that's true but it makes sense.
Went back to stock everything (Modem, CSC, ROM) then I upgraded to ICS OTA.
Enable SIM lock, Disabled SIM lock.
How do you know that carrier unlocking blocks you on the 3G/LTE networks? Can the carrier be relocked?
I've got another 717r coming to me. I think I'll try backing up the EFS folder and restoring it on this phone just to verify it's not corrupt or a blocked IMEI.

I'm not sure about that one.
But what ROM do you use? It seems like this only happens with people who have JB ROMs..it looks like..
I just called ATT , they did some kind of wireless number reset, nothing happened.
They are going to send me a new SIM card which I can test and see if that fixes the problem, but I'm not going to hold my breath though.

I am having the same issue. Did you receive the SIM card and did it fix it?

Try going to retail at&t store and show them. Get you a new device.

[Q] No service on new Nexus 5, but data works

Hi,
Just bought a brand new Nexus 5 from a person wanting to keep his iPhone.
Everything is working fine, except it says "No service" (sometimes with one bar, sometimes with all four). Data is working fine though, but neither SMS/MMS or phonecalls works. Sometimes, when i reset/reboot i doesn't say "No Service", but after one single phonecall it reverts back to "No Service" and only data works again.
Iv'e tried resetting with the firmware on the phone from the start, tried flashing both kot49h and krt16m, tried getting a new sim (which works fine in my old Nexus 3), tried different radio-settings but nothing works for me.
Any thought of, what I can do? (before I ship it off to repair, which would cost quite a lot)
Thanks, in advance!

A European one called Telia, or TeliaSonara, depending on your country. I live in Denmark, and here it's called Telia.

Have you tried Settings >More>Mobile Networks>Network Operators and play around with those?

Yeah, that doesn't work either. Sometimes it can't even find any operators :/

More>Mobile Network Settings>Access Point Names
You need to either update or add your APN for your provider, then everything will work for you. Flashing modems probably won't help you. Also, make sure the Sim card you have is active.

Iv'e checked and double-checked all of the APN-settings. They should be allright. Also, the sim is active (and it works fine in my Nexus 3)

Don't want to look offensive, but are you on wifi?

The problem you have, i faced that when my old phone got stolen. So less then a week ago my old phone got stolen (got it back, but bought a nexus 5 now :3) i called the insurance company and police to report it stolen, and i got it IMEI locked with the help of the police. And when that happends you wont be able to call or text from it, but your data will work for tracking it.
So my guess is that its a stolen phone and the original owner reported it stolen to the police, and now its IMEI locked.
Try and call the police and give them the IMEI number, and tell them what you told us and ask if its locked.
Great day to you!

No I'm not ^^
@Zestia , I'll try that, although the websites with blacklist-lookup that I've tried the IMEI with, didn't say that it's stolen.

Did you check to see if your phone is blacklisted for being lost/stolen?

Phone Calls dont use apn settings... Even with no apn settings you are able to make calls.. Well at least in Canada... Not sure about other country but i think it would be the same...
