Hi All,
I've just got an Samsung Galaxy S that is coded to a provider network.
So far so good ...
After I've installed an application and root the phone and then unroot it, my pone doesn't recognize my sim card ...
If I navigate to the Mobile Network from Settings then I get No SIM card inserted.
Facts to take into consideration:
- I have restarted the phone;
- I have applied a factory reset and lost all my data except music and files I've got on it;
- I have shacked the SIM card a little bit;
- I didn't applied a hard reset to it;
- I did tried to put a different provider SIM card and the message I get is to insert PIN then is asking for the UNLOCK NETWORK PIN;
- I am able to log in the phone but with no service
Please note that when starting / restarting the phone I get no Insert PIN popup
Anyone has an ideea why ?
I've got the same problem saptaru.
No sim card is detected in my Galaxy S.
If you happen to solve it, please, do not forget to post a comment.
After dialing #*1234# I can read:
PDA:
PHONE: Unknown
CSC:
I guess the IMEI cannot be recognized by the phone.
At least, I wrote it before rooting and flashing.
Any help will be highly apreciatted!
Hello,
After several restarts, hard reseting the phone and enable-disable networking I still get the sim card removed from time to time ... I don't really know how to debug this... if there is anyone on this forum with the right experience in order to debug the system please write me and maybe we can find a solution.
I must mention that I have unlocked my phone and also rooted it.
Thanks allot !
I have same problem now, can anyone help.
well my sim card has been identified but i can't seem to register on the network.....thats as far as i got as a noob with my first android (xperia x8)......can someone help me from here on......
i get nothing from sims from various networks, it doesn't even register as having a sim in it...
unlocked and darkys rom... driving me crazy, it basically a large mp3 player at the moment...
Maybe have installed the wrong ROM. i9000 has many bases and radios. I had this problem installing 900mhz ROM on a 850mhz sim.
Good luck

Hmm, ok this might be the issue, flashing the htc desire is so much simpler!!
Will try to find correct radios and stuff again...

Even I am having the EXACT same issues right now. I also did the factory reset but that doesn't help!

Have the same problem here. Have you managed to find a solution?
Hi everyone, I don't know if anyone is still interested but I've found that putting the phone into flight mode and then rebooting seems to work, because when I then turn flight mode off it asks me for my pin code and service is restored. As long as the IMEI folder is still in the efs folder then things should be fine.
Hope this helps for anyone who is here or just stumbles across this.
I've had the same problem > Sim Card not found.
I went to the Vodafone repair center today they said the phone had water damage.
Its never been near any water ever-they said that it could have happened months ago - "perhaps you hand wet hands once?". Its still in warranty but the apparent water damage means the warranty its now invalid. So now I'm stuck with an expensive video/audio player with WiFi access. Any help or progress with this issue would be great. Thanks
I fixed the issue bu flashing a working Modem from another rom. Just extract the modem.bin and flash it with odin

Hi, I am using Samsung Galaxy SL I9003 for couple of weeks. 2 days ago I found a problem that showed me "Insert sim card". I gave my set a master reset and then the set was ok. But I got the same problem today. I tried the same way. This time master reset is not working.
My IMEI is 354949040415515. PDA:I9003DXKB1, CSC:I9003OLBKB1. Firmware version:2.2.1, .
If someone knows about it. Please help me. I will be grate full to you.
I think you have problem with contacts of your sim card. Try to clean them. Also you can try to show your phone to the service. I don't think this is problem with your firmware.

First advice is never post your IMEI no. in public thread.
As IMEI is intact there should not be any network related issue due to non registration of your device at centre of your network service provider. I feel it could be hardware issue with the SIM card slot. But not necessarily hardware, it could be even problem with your SIM itself. If its used for longtime. first test with another SIM card, may be from a friend or a family member and make sure its not a sim problem. Then if you some how you think it could be related to Firmware you have DXKB2 FW available for flashing as single PDA file. You can upgrade by flashing it from the I9003 firmware thread of Krrazyy or from Samfirmware.com. If that does not solve your problem, take it to service centre for hardware repair. All the best.

Hey, I flashed with DXKB2 last night and my phone acted ok for couple of hours. Then the problem has started again. Another thing is, now it doesn't show my IMEI in setting option or after pressing *#06#......even after pressing *#1234#, it shows me the PDA and CSC, but it shows "Phone : Unknown". Is it a network related issue? If yes, wht to do now. Thanx for the previous comment.

Not network you wiped your phones IMEI with the flash .
You backed up your EFS folder then just restore it .
NO apart from why not you need to find the EFS restore thread that may help .

Thanx buddy.......Another thing I want to inform you my phone shows "Baseband Version : Unknown". I showed it to the customer care and they said that the problem is with Baseband version. They also said that it's a software related issue. But my problem is it showed the IMEI and Baseband Version for 2 hours after my flashing. Then it started again. What type of flashing is going to help me?
Another thing, Can u please tell me or give me a link about restoring the EFS folder? I searched it in google.. but no result!
In addition I am using it from Bangladesh. As far as I know it is not officially launched here. Do I need any unlocking process? If yes, how can I do that??
N.B: Even kies is unable to connect my phone right now!!!!
I have the same problem
Hi, I have exactly the same problem on my Galaxy SL i9003. Did you finally manage to solve it?
to restore imei you need to have backup of your working imei efs folder.i see you have your imei number written here not sure if it is possible to mode efs folder to fit you phone.

It's been a long time. I was frustrated and stopped trying of repairing my phone. Now I see some light. Some people are talking about efs restore. I samsung captivate, a developer showed the way to repair imei and product code without even using pc.
Is it possible in I9003?
And hey, can u please tell me now whether I can mode my efs with that IMEI.
Please help.
this could be a hardware related issue also !
may be the pin where the sim card is inserted went inside or was bent..
or else insert any other sim card and see if ur phone works or not..
3rd this could be a corrupted sim card problem.. my sim card got corrupted and no matter in which handset i put my card in the phon won't boot ! btw it was a BSNL sim card..

If you made a backup of your efs folder, then via CWM it is possible to restore it. If such a backup does not exists, then things are really complicated. maybe you can use the backup of some other EFS from a different i9003, and try to modify the IMEI with yours that can be taken from outside the box. I don't know if you can do the last procedure but some expert maybe can!
Good luck.
I had a similar issue with another phone and sim card, similar to the contact issue. why not take out your sim and put it on a flat surface to see if it's still flat as it should be? if it got hot and became slightly warped, you'll have to bend it back (CAREFULLY!!!) so that the contacts are in contact again
if this is the case, you have to get a new one at your service provider so it doesn't keep happening...
Moved to General section since it has nothing to do with development.
Unless it does and I somehow missed it, if so just pm me and I'll move it back.
And see if u inserted sim card d wrong way.. It happened to me..
Sent from my GT-I9003
I got this problem too.
It suddenly happened to me when using stock room (xxkb1, if i'm not wrong), and in that time i never flashed anything in the phone, so probably not a software issue.
I tried rebooting billion times, put another sim card, cleaning the contacts, factory resets, prayers and nothing worked. But the weird fact is that sometimes it starts working out of nowhere for 2 or 3 hours and then it stops. It confuses me, because it means it's not hardware too. So then i tried updating to xxkpe and xxkph and the problem still remains.
My sim card is not bent, its not inserted in wrong way, the sim cards work in others phones, shows "Insert sim card" when i try going into network settings, doesn't show my IMEI in setting option or after pressing *#06#......even after pressing *#1234#, it shows me the PDA and CSC, but it shows "Phone : Unknown" (like OP), and i didn't backup the EFS. Everything else in the phone works great..
Could you guys help me out? I live in small city in Brazil and bought the i9003 in Paraguay, there are no samsung customer care or similar nearby.
HI GUYS...
I UNLOCKED MY SAMSUNG GALAXY INFUSE AS USUAL, AND ITS OK "UNLOCKED"...
BUT WHEN I INSERT MY SIM CARD IT WORKED FOR FEW MINUTES, AFTER THAT IT SAYS NO SERVICE AND THERE IS NO SIGNAL AT ALL... BUT SOMETIME I GOT SIGNALS BUT WITHOUT REGISTERED NETWORK.
NOTE:
MABY THE PROBLEM FROM THE IMEI NUMBER, BECAUSE I GOT IT WRONG , IT IS LIKE IN THE ATTACHMENT.
PLEASE GUYS HELP ME ....
Yep, a borked imei number will not allow you to connect to your cellular network...
I'm guessing that your efs folder wasn't backed up... you can try this...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881162
I haven't tried this but good luck.
thank you brassguy...
but does this work for infuse 4G ?
In addition, I read that we can change the IMEI number using the ADB, or is there another way to do this?
Also, what about the GSII_repair app, can I use it for my phone (infuse 4G)?
i had this problem last night where i flashed a rom. i return it to stock and imei showed up.
was having a imei" unknown error" and i backed up now on my computer.
ps ebay sales unlock service for 0.99$ if you didn't buy the code and just hacked it with hex or whatever
mine is already unlocked and it's permanent
i do travel over seas alot
But i returned mine to stock many times but the imei number still like this.

Bought a new S6 from Ebay that had been opened up to all networks. Discovered it was rooted which I didn't want so I flashed it with a stock Vodafone ROM. The phone worked fine for about 10 days then all of a sudden I got the message 'not registered on network' when I try to make call. It turns out that the IMEI number has changed. Does anyone know whether this type of problem can be sorted out?
Flash back to stock via odin.

IMEI Corrupted
I'm going to use a Vodafone ROM as this phone was originally on Vodafone before the seller had it opened up to all networks. THE ROM is G920FXXU1AOCZ_G920FVFG1AOC4_G920FXXU1AOCW_HOME.tar.md5. Does this sound like the right one? Sorry for all the questions - I'm new to this. The other thing worth mentioning is the IMEI at the moment is 350000000000006. Where could this have come from? Any ideas? It's weird because the original IMEI was in tact for about 10 days before it changed to the one above. Any help at all would be appreciated

Corrupt imei is known issue when flashing and rooted. That's why firdt thing you do when rooting, is you backup your stock rom together with efs folder. Idk which is your stock rom, you have to do some research, download that rom and use odin to go back to stock. You will lose everything you got on the phone btw so save any pictures or music.

Thanks for that. The problem I have is that there's no backup of the EFS folder or the stock ROM. Without these, is there any way of sorting this out or is the phone dead? Cheers
hi
i have same problem did you fix that if yes please help me
Bring S6 back to Samsung for repair
My guess is the phone you bought was stolen and after 10 days it got blacklisted.
Or the seller claimed he lost his phone to insurance company, sold it you, got a new one on insurance, and then after the 10 days the "lost" phone (your phone) got blacklisted.

The same story, any help?
How I can fix this? Please help
Get Chimera tool and you should be able to fix it no problem
Did you manage to fix?
My baseband shows as attached after installing vador rom so I'm confused
If you didn't formatted/wipe the efs/nvbackup, there's a chance you can retrieve your imei.
But if it doesn't, the only way is to bring it up to Samsung or a good phone technicians to repair or get you a new branded IMEI for your phone. Mine was fixed by a technician using Octopus box tool.

Verify whether your IMEI is still intact.
Go to:
system settings>about phone>status
or
system settings>about>status>information
or
system settings>about>information
Or whatever similar settings that you have, then check to see if your IMEI number is shown.
I DO NOT PROVIDE HELP IN PM, KEEP IT IN THE THREADS WHERE EVERYONE CAN SHARE
Thanks for your replies. Yes my IMEI is there but its not the same as it is on the back of the phone. However, the first time i flashed the stock ROM it was all the same but i still had this problem of Network not registered.

Are you sure that you flashed the correct firmware for your specific model number?
Have you tried another SIM? If you had the SIM in when you flashed it, it might have damaged the SIM somehow. That might not be your issue but it's worth checking.
Maybe you have conflicting data from before you flashed it, in this case you can try bioting to recovery then factory reset and wipe cache then reboot.
I DO NOT PROVIDE HELP IN PM, KEEP IT IN THE THREADS WHERE EVERYONE CAN SHARE
Yes i used the exact firmware for my model as well for my country. I think i have done what you proposing already. And for trying a different SIM i did try it too. I am really helpless right now
