Its either your sim is the problem or the sims input. Try getting a new sim.

"NO SERVICE" Can't get signal anywhere, anyhow.

My XDA II is not getting any signal from anywhere.. Flight mode is off, wireless is on.. Beside the signal icon is an exclamation mark that just stays there. It just says "No service" when tapped on.. I've tried other sims but nothing worked. The sim cards work fine with other phones.
The Xda II detects the sim card because it can read it's phonebook thru "sim manager". I've tried searching network and stuffs but still nothing. I did the soft and hard reset but to no avail.
Can anyone please help me???? Is this a usual problem??
Is it a new XDA II ? or second hand bought ?
Did it ever work ? When did it stop working?
Did you do an upgrade ?
What radio version ?
What model ?
It could be you have a stolen XDA II and that it is blacklisted.
It could be that the upgrade went wrong and you have no radio.
It could be that it is set to the wrong band. 850/1900 900/1800
SEcond Hand. Haven't done an upgrade.
I just tried using other network's sim and it worked.. only sims from the network it was bought from don't seem to work..
How do you change the bands?
About those bands I don't know much. I just read that it is a problem, but mostly in the US.
It could be that it is blaklisted at one operator, and that it works with other operators. But I was under the impression that all operators should use the blacklists.
You could call helpdesk/go to shop of your operator and ask why it doesn't work and if it is blacklisted.
Would they confiscate the unit if it is blacklisted?
Thanks for the replies M4IO..
I don't know, I've never had one.
you could just phone them from an anonymous phone, tell them that you want to buy a second hand phone, but first want to check.
If you know anybody who travels abroad, ask them to take it to another country, if it works there then you know it is blacklisted in your country.

[HELP] Can't connect to any network in UK

Hello
I have problem with my Sensation.
I bought phone year ago (on polish equivalent of ebay), from someone who lives in UK and he send me it to Poland. It worked perfectly there, till now.
Two days ago I came to UK, and since I switched phone ON after getting off the plane, I can't connect to any of the cellular network.
I am sure that SIM slot is OK because phone asks me to enter SIM pin code.
When I am trying to manually select network I got 'Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network', and when automatically 'Unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later.'
Wifi and GPS working fine.
I dont have a clue whats the reason of that, where the problem lies.
Phone has ARHD 6.7.2 ROM, firmware 3.33.401.106.
Any help is appreciated as I need phone badly, to have mail and internet access throught the day :crying:
PS. I am starting to think that UK seller could scam me, and sold me phone with blocked IMEI or something like this? :/
Hi have you tried to change your radio And ril? This could help you regain signal. I can't recommend a particular radio and ril because we live in different areas and it will be different. However you can start by experimenting with the generic ICS radios and rils and see of one of those will reconnect your signal.best wishes.Hope this helps solve your issue!
sent from HTC sensation, soff, 3.33 firmware, viper Rom, sense 4.1, kernel version PYD-X stable 3.1, mugen battery 3800mah. Please press thanks if I helped in anyway.

Sounds like your Polish carrier/SIM might not be allowing international roaming. Get a PAYG SIM for a couple of quid and try that. That'd prove the phone side of things.
Try
Try putting in a diffrent Sim card to see if it's that.

If your home network doesn't have an agreement with UK networks then your SIM won't work, not sure if this is realistic as I thought they were all only to happy to help others take money from us. Try a UK SIM, if that doesn't work then your IMEI is probably blocked in the UK, but not in Poland.
It's a simple answer Your phone has been reported as lost/stolen in UK and IMEI has been black listed. It's now paper weight in UK.
Pogon telefon w PL i kup sobie inny w UK.
Sorry for not mentioning - ofcourse I tried other sim cards, like o2 and vodafone - neither of it worked. My PL carrier sim worked in roaming in different phone.
So it looks like IMEI is blocked, I just wonder if I should go to the Police to check this out but I dont want to have it confiscated :/
Butif its true, Im not going to leave this scammer unpunished - I'll try legal action :/

Instead of legal action why not just find him and remove a thumd. maybe both thumbs to be sure.
The sad thing about having an IMEI number on the black list is that it can't come off that list. At least from my experiences.

This.
Apart from it not being a paperweight. Revival is possible but ILLEGAL.

[Q] 3G not working

My new Honor 6 H60-L02 doesn't seem to have a data connection. The telephoning/messaging works well, but when I am out of wifi range, and want to use the internet, the message I get is 'no network connection'.
Any help appreciated.
Sorted!!
It was my sim card settings, OK now.
Which settings you mean? I've got the same problem on h06-l04 and did everything like deleting the APN, tested APNs from other providers etc. - nothing helped. The SIM shows h+ and h all the time, but when I try to open a site or try to update my apps over google play the connection works a few seconds up to a minute and then the connection got lost again. It never happened on my galaxy s2.
I used the APN settings on my sim card providers web site and they worked perfectly. If I am not in a wifi zone the phone switches to h+ and performs very well.
3g not working

What model do u have? H01, H11 - won't support Euro 3G, thay are only for China. H02 and H12 - should work fine with 3g. H04 - Should work fine with 3g and 4g in your country.
Also please check if your carier provides 3g service.

What country you live?
Mine just had 2g network on TMobile network USA
hi guys if want to solve this problem i know this is very late replay like a year xD but this can be fixed by turning airplane mode on then off
I received huawei from Uk. Honor 7, Network unlocked but i cant access 3g to 4g service data. It only works when i turn to 2g, edge and very slow. Any help?
3G/4G issue
I'm also having the same issue with my Honor 6+ which i bought last month from dubai. I'm trying to use data connection using 3G/4G in india as i'm residing in India, but even after following all the required settings that are provided by my service provider and the other trouble shooting steps i'm still no where. It always displays the 3G/4G icon at the top but never works. I doubt if it is something to do with the software/firmware version. Please suggest.
I'm also having the same issue with my Honor 6+ which i bought last month from Malaysia and using in Bangladesh. I tried airplane mode on and off, it shows 3G for few moment or minutes but then again it becomes edge mode. Please help me out from this problem.. thanks in advance..
I live in India and I bought my Honor six plus online from a local retailer, and my phone can only access 2G data (or EDGE, apparently ) which is too slow to support anything. At first, I thought it was a sim card issue but I tried using the same sim in someone else's phone and that person's phone had no such problem. Even my brother's Iphone faced nothing of the sort. Any one know how to fix this?
Check on the back of the phone for phone number. On my honor 6, on the back on the lower part are 2 lines with text. on the second line I have found my phone model: H60-L2, in my case. Then you can check with, for example, http://willmyphonework.net/ if your phone model will work in your country. I know for example that my phone model will not allow 4G in all European countries.
If you prove that your phone is working in your country than its a matter of settings. You can try:
- Place the sim card with a data plan on the main sim tray. Honor 6 not rooted and running stable ROM will allow data only on the first tray. In Settings -> Dual Card Sim Management you can see which card is in which tray. If necessary switch the sim cards into the other tray.
- Check your settings and here the most important one is the APN. Make sure that the settings of your operator are correctly set in order to have mobile connection.
Generally the 3G network should at least be recognized, so if your phone is not registering with a 3G network then either it is not hardware compatible or you have placed your SIM in the wrong tray. Most probably is the first option and what you can do is to change the phone...
Man...i was having the same problem...well just 2 mins back!??
I have marshmallow update...and wat my problem was that the apn was set, though correctly, but in upper amd lower case....
And it seems apns are case sensitive...so check it!
Honor 6x is my latest mobile, which i bought a week before, it's seems like the mobile having data connection problems. till i'm using 4G sims but i'm not getting at least 2g speed, most of the time i'm not getting internet connections. at the same time it's showing H and H+ symbols ...
if possible, someone pls help me here.

no network signal

Hello, I am staying in Korea and I got this phone from my friend in USA . I inserted my sim card from my current LG-F180k phone to this phone but received no signal. Therefore I couldn't call or text, even though my phone can recognize the contact list from the sim card. I have to mention that I've already rooted this phone with the tutorial from oneplus forum. Could anyone help me solve this issue? In Korea, there are some shops which sell this phone so I don't think the problem came from the network system.
