Signal / Sim issue? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
Strange problem that has me a little stomped and nervous..
Basically I was on the one plus one official forums and found a thread talking about how much better 25R is when it comes to battery life.. I have a brand new Oneplus one that is is / was on 44S.
In this thread they linked to xda for the rom, it was just a stock 25R rom that was made a flashable zip. Well I figured what the heck might as well try it, made a nanoid backup and titanium backup, wiped and flashed away.
Well as soon as I booted into 25R I noticed I had no signal at all, like nothing. So then I set up the system a little figuring whatever just need to reboot I guess.. Still nothing.
I then pop out the sim card and notice now the "No sim card" icon displays then disapears over and over.
I reverted back to my nanoid and still my sim card issue persists.. Nothing I seem to do restores my signal, I have flashed multiple modems etc..
Has anyone ever heard of this? I find it very hard to believe I some how developed a hardware problem the same exact time I flashed 25R.. sure as hell seems like a hardware problem though.
*** Edit I tried one more.. on the Android Developement area there was a stock rooted 44s with a zip that has 44s etc.. modem etc.. I flashed this file - even though I already flashed another 44s modem zip.. Seems to have given me back my signal and sim detecting abilitie.. Thankfully..
I don't know what triggered this, this is the thread I got the 25R zip from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/rom-xnph25r-cm11s-zip-t2820008
Teach me to flash anything while at work without access to fastboot.

I had this problem aswell, actually still have it whenever i flash a new rom.
The thing you have to do to get your signal back is changing your preferred network type in Settings > Mobile networks.
Mine has no option ticked standard, so i had to manually set it to 3G which solved my problem.
Tell me if it worked for you!

Yep. You need to do that as suggested "......... in Settings > Mobile networks....to 3G " / 4G / LTE depending on your Carrier/Network......:good:

I dont know what caused this problem, i think it started after i flashed ColorOS, so maybe that flash has overwritten some important files, i dont know.

Signal problems after ROM update

Hi all,
I tried to update my HTC One S to TrickDroid 7.1 from 7.0 (before you ask, I did exactly what is written in the op post/author's site like always: wiping, flashing from recovery and with the script, rebooting).
After the first reboot I saw that even after I unlocked my sim with the pin, I had no signal. I tried rebooting into recovery and deleting cache to no avail. I tried rebooting many times but nothing seemed to work, except manually removing and inserting again the sim card or activating and deactivating airplane mode. And even after doing that, the signal is very unstable and so are the mobile data and the weather widget.
So I tried to reflash the 7.1 at first, and then the 7.0 with no results.
If this could be helpful, I never updated/flashed the Radio on my device, since everything seemed to work fine until 7.0.
Hope you can help me. Sorry for my bad English.
Redownload file, fullwipe again and try again, also wait 1 day if you really have bad signal and check your speed with speedtest, the icons say nothing

Just did what you suggested (checked the MD5 as usual), but the problem still persists. For the mobile data, the speed is nearly the same and the icons are good (I don't see the G), it's just that now they continue changing from 3G to H constantly when I'm at home. Before I had only the H with no changing.
Resolved after reinstalling the stock rom and then the TrickDroid rom. Just for info, is 1.06s.50.02.27_2 the last Radio version or there's a newer one? In the second case, where can I find it with a good tutorial (the one I found seemed outdated)?
Thanks.
it is the latest

No Service with Valid SIM

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.

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.

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.)

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..

No Data Connection

Hi everyone,
Could really use your help. I tried updating my phone to Lineage OS and post update, my phone's data connection stopped working. I've tried flashing different firmwares to see if it fixes the problem and it didn't. I went back to my old backup, and the problem continues. I can't access any data connection (no phone, or text either).
Any idea on what could have caused the problem. My steps were basically:
Backed up old Sultan 12.1 Rom
Installed Lineage using TWRP 2.8.7.0
Installed latest Gapps mini
Installed the bacon_firmware_update_2015_05-15_DI.3.0.c6-00241.zip
And data problems began
Now i've tried redoing the steps with the latest recovery and it doesn't change anything. And as previously mentioned, I'm having data connection problems in my old backup as well

Yup, I reverted back to my old backup and no flashing of firmware, and it's still messed up.
Found out that my IMEI isn't showing up so that could be the problem. Went through "the entire internet" and found some fixes, trying them now to see if I can get something to work.
Edit: I flashed to CM13.1 stock. But my IMEI is still not showing up. No idea what to do next. My phone connects to the network, but doesn't let me do anything considering it can't find an IMEI.

Are you talking about flashing stock from the thread you linked above? I'm not on the stock firmware from the fix above, I'm on stoch CM13.1.2.
Should I go back to stock CM11 from the fix above? Or can I just extract the sbl1 file from the package and flash it in fastboot?
Okay, I finally got my IMEI back using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-efs-partitions-how-to-lost-t3307793, and flashing stock oxygen OS through their recovery rather than TWRP.
But now, although it reads my sim, my phone doesn't connect to the internet, and when it does, it doesn't connect to 4g. I still can't use data services despite having the baseband and IMEI fixed. So now what are the next steps? Could my hardware be broken?

Just flash twrp using fastboot,backup your EFS!
Then flash any other custom rom.

I installed lineage, still no data connection. Honestly about to give up on this phone. Is there a good stable rom that I should use?
I've tried Lineage and now Sultans CM13, but still no data man. Just my sim stuff is acting weird, and i know my sim is fine. I'm switching carriers and ordered a new sim. I'm hoping somehow changing carriers helps, otherwise I'm **** out of luck.
Edit: Ok, so on Sultan's CM13 I've finally got the data working, but it only works when its on H+ (4g) otherwise no internet/voice/ text. So is there a fix this?

4G is Lte not H+(3G).
Yeah maybe OPO doesn't support the band your carrier uses for data.

Nope, not the case as I've been using the phone for the last 2 years. I read up that the switch between H+ and 3g happens because the carrier only sends data through H+ not 3g, so it happens to every phone, not just the OPO. But now my problem is, I can't send texts over 3g.
I'm going to wait and see what happens when I get a new carrier's sim.

you've mentioned that you are using twrp 2.8.7.0, can you try twrp from here and re flash firmware and report back?
Just flash the .img file via twrp
Also, use this firmware : link

He already tried using the latest recovery...
Thanks for the help guys, I think in this case it was more of a carrier problem. I learned that Wind has been updating their infrastructure causing some network problems. Couple that with a finnicky OPO and you get headaches.
My new carrier seems to be working better (but I've only had the new sim for an hour). Going to do a full day test and see what happens.
Thanks again.
