Hello again!
I have issue with SIM card, phone doesnt recognize the SIM card and when I insert it says NO SIM CARD/EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY (Sometime it says, "No signal" but I cant search for any network). I remeber flashing simlock.ta by accident, I've tried every single solution but none sadly worke. And no I haven't done TA backup. Is there any fix, or is my sim reader fried? Thank you guys again so much, I hope I get some good answers. Peace
I had a similar issue but my sim used to get detected. The thing was that I stopped getting network in my home or at college. It's still not fixed. I have sometimes manually find and the preferred network.
You could try flashing the stock firmware and see if it's fixed.
I'm guessing either our antenna is at fault or some software glitch while flashing custom roms.

I figured the issue, it was software related I had to reflash 6.0.1 and after flashing it open the back cover, find antenna cable remove them and then insert them back and after that boot the phone without SIM card and reflash back to 4.4 generic global and it works! In my case its the only issue to fix it. (Im not responsible for any damage you do on your phone, try this at your own risk!)
Thanks. I was try the flashing the old firmware. I had previously removed the antenna cable and put it back again but there was no change. But now as you said I'll reflash the old firmware. :good:

Hi All,
It had been a long time that i have been trying to solve the 'No GSM' problem.
My device is O2 xda Exec, but strangely it started to show no sim card and then showing No GSM on the boot screen.
I had tried various ROMS by our friends, but no one is able to sort out this problem. Now i am really tired of it.
If anyone can help, knows any method to sort this out, any clues, i will be very happy.
i have the same problem.....
i had flash several rom's, but i cant flash radio rom as i show in this topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=457873
Try flashing back to the original factory ROM pack, it comes with everything in one upgrade package, so it will flash your ROM, Radio and Extended ROM at once. Trying cooked ROMs will not solve it, simply because they don't come with Radio as a general rule, so if you are missing a Radio, flashing a developed ROM will not add one.
Alternatively, of course, it may indicate problems with your main board that simply no longer reads your SIM.
i don't know the original rom version of it.
i had tried 2 original Imate WWE roms and it stucks at 0% at flashing radio rom. i instead it, i flash the rom and extrom separately several times, with severak versions, and the only problem is flashing the radio rom.
the device works properly, except GSM. the wifi and BT turns on and off. (no other devices to have comunicate)
i tried also sim "unlock" (it is already unlocked from factory) and i have the "success" message, then tried to flash radio rom, but unsuccessful.
then i did a rom backup from other device (Orange SPVM500 brand) to sd card and then restore to Jasjam, but shows "error ID"
then, i tried to backup the entire rom from itself to SD and restore it again, but the commands seems to not work.
then a did a upgrade bootloader (because it stucked at bootloader) even using UNI_bootloader EXIT.exe
i have no more ideas, then have it a large hammer!

SIM is due for replacement?
i tried 2 sim card's from 2 different operators.
actually it is without sim card, but shows the "NO GSM" at start up.
on past Saturday, my other pda (old HTC BLUEANGEL) had a freeze on receiving a call (i must reset it 4 times) then i made a call and nothing happened after that.
very strange.
i tried also backup a rom from the device to sd card and shows me an error (error = FF) on mtty1[1].42
i do the operation successfully on my other htc.
i read that sometimes take out and plug in the batery several times, works...
mine dont.
Try this it worked for me.....
Most of the ROM you update only have the nk.nbf (OS ROM) but don't have ms_.nbf (Extended ROM), radio_.nbf (Radio ROM). so you should upgraded the radio_.nbf manually.. and the problem should me solved..... so simply download any new Radio version in my case 1.17.XX and copy the file radio_.nbf (Radio ROM) in to the ROM update folder . Enter boot screen and update... the problem should be solved.... have a look at following link as welll... might be helpful...

I too have the "NO GSM" issue, and have noticed that most cases are associated with the o2 Exec; as is mine. I'm also missing my IMEI in 'device information'. I think the issue may have something to do with the CID lock originally found in the o2 Exec. I too have tried almost anything and have heard the original ROM is the only way back (which I don't have). However, I believe that an SD upload/download of a radio ROM may be a possible solution. The trick is getting the 'header' of the "to be downloaded" radio ROM to match up with the device. This is where I'd left off on trying to fix my device...I don't know how to edit the ROM's header and save, so that I may download via SD card...any help would be much appreciated...
Its a HW problem...
what do you mean by sd upload/download of rom ????

You can find more information in the forum adout downloading by SD card. Tomal has an SD ROM tool; or you could try the service manual...Either way, I cannot seem to get an SD download to work because of a fixed CID lock; this was confirmed through MTTY. However, I believe if I clone the header (acceptable to the device) into the "new" radio ROM; my device should be able to update. If it doesn't, I feel I could then confidently believe that the issue is in the hardware...'til then...
Can anyone out there help me with this, PLEASE!!!
So try unlockind your device to make it SuperCID

I tried to flash to a new rom and i did it successfully. All works fine but i have a problem, when device locks my device appears no service.There is no signal
When i flashed the rom, sim was inside.
Do you think this was the problem?
Other users with same device same rom did not have any problem.If i try to flash again causes to lose my data?
Thank you in advance. I am looking forward to your replies.
Hi there,
You dont say what device or rom u are using?
Did you flash a different radio or one that came witht them rom.
Sometimes a flash can affect sim card, btbh i often flash my phone with sim card in and never had a problem (not recomended though)
Are you able to receive and make calls ok? is 3g working? data usage ok? does your GPS and camera work (all radio reliant)
Thank you for your response. I flashed my device again without sim and all works fine.
Hi guys,
I've come across a rare problem, I can't find other people having the same problem with the same device.
I flashed my 1yo GT-I5800 from 2.1 to FROYO, I5800XXJPF version.
I tried the guide here on xda, but that provides me 'one package' files and my phone wouldn't come further as the 'samsung' screen. After a lot of research I found a person with the same problem and the problem basically was that when using 'one package files', you apparently flash your bootloader too. So I searched for a firmware version with separate files, flashed first back to the original version (so that my phone would have the original bootloader) and then flashed, without the bootloader to a stable version.
Everything works like a charm, I'm very happy with it, but I have big issue... the most crucial part of the phone is not working, namely the sim card. My phone doesn't complain about it at all, had no errors, only the notification that I can only make emergency calls.
My question is: what should I do to fix this? I'm pretty sure it's not hardware related, since other sim cards don't work as well and mine works on other phones. Some people had the same problem, but this was because their phone booted in airplane mode.
tl;dr
I flashed my phone 2.1 to 2.2, the sim card slot doesn't work anymore, software related.
I'm really looking out for any answers, thanks in advance!
PS: Since I cannot move threads, I made a copy of this one earlier on another forum here around. Since this is also a good section for my question, I posted here the same thread, since in the other section people don't(/can't?) answer my question.

Flash the XXJPU latest firmware as it is a lot smoother, faster and less buggy (if it has any bugs at all).
Now, as to your question, i think it may be due to you not having any signal. Check that your phone is not in airplane mode and also go outside or somewhere you have good signal. Another suggestion would be to call up your sim card provider and ask if they are facing any technical difficulties.
@Smonic
Okay, I'll try that version. To your solution: my phone just doesn't see the sim card, not even my contacts. It is not in airplane mode, I checked this already and mentioned that in my post.
Thanks for your respond, but unfortunately it didn't solved my question yet. I'll update you if the new firmware worked if I find it.
Update about firmware: Found the I5800 firmware you posted half a month ago, flashed to that version but it didn't solve the problem. He recognizes my sd card when I put that in, but still not my sim card.
Any ideas?
Now I faceing the same problem... Did you find solution?
I see its quite so probably you could solve a problem... I hope Im wrong.
Some problem help please.........
Keep rebooting the phone
Mine Bcame ok after 4-5 reboots(sometimes becomes ok in 2,and sometimes works flawlessly)
Man i m lucky
Hello all.
I would like to ask this in this thread but I still have no permissions to write there. :crying:
I succesfully rooted my U8860 and installed TWRP. Also every custom ROM installation from the thread above works. Unfortunaly since I installed a custom ROM the phone doesn't recognize the SIM card anymore. It just sais "no SIM installed". I tried to fix this with setting up own APN entries but without any results.
Then I wanted to go back to Stock ICS 4.0.3, because the SIM works there. But the update process stops after approx. 30%. Also the downgrade patch hangs after 60%.
So, there I am. Read a lot of hints and tryed everything except of this: formating the partition in pink mode. I am a little afraid of making it worse with loosing the IMEI and/or MAC Address.
Would be nice if anybody has the solution for getting back to ICS or the SIM working on other ROMs.
Thank you!

Hi guys, i have a question. Recently i got weird problem, my sim card stopped working overnight, Everything is normal, there is info about simcard, number, imei, everything, i tryed changig sim, but all sims that i tryed act the same. Things that i find that are wrong. In siminfo Radio is off, and airplane mode icon is always on, even if i turn it off in settings icon is still blue, i tryed flashing lates rom over odin, and it didnt work, i also tryed flashing custom rom (one that i found that is not on some wier chinese site that ask for my chinese number), twrp and still nothing, i lost a few days, and i need some help, i tryed everything i know. I cant go and enter *#*#4636#*#* to see siminfo and turn radio on(something that i saw on YouTube), that code dosent work on my device. I even tryed dissasembly the phone to see if everything is conected, and i dont find anything unusual, everything is in place. So please if anyone can help me that would be grat.
Im sorry im not native English speaker, and i apologize for my bad writing
Looks like a damaged efs partition
Well, it may be, but i have EFS backup when was okay(i learned thats important, hard way on s4 ), but everyting seems okay, i finally find right combination rom, and sim card seems to work fine, i cant call to conform, but its on 4g connection, and signal strenght is changigng just fine. And as soon as i flash stock rom radio goes off.
I actualy solved my problem, i flashed combination rom and tur radio on, right after that i flashed stock rom without CSC, and it worked, i got error on decryption, but i just wipe/factory restart from recovery, and it worked. So if anyone have some problem with ther S8+ g9550 PM me, ill try to help out.
