Last night, I saw a new firmware version available and updated to it - 6.0.1-7VAB-UEB0 (6045I).
Right after the update, the SIM card is not recognized.
Rebooting didn't help.
I also tried restarting the phone without the SIM card and then restarting again with the card back in.
Any idea how to fix this?
How do you update? Ota or flashing rom via TWRP? Maybe is modem problem..or missing some partitions.
OTA
Was the update issued by a carrier?
Edit: I got the 7VAB OTA update in mid-2016 and got notice of OTA another update to 7VGE yesterday for my Canadian Idol 3 6045I.
Maybe check for OTA updates again?
Very weird.
I ended up doing a Factory Reset and then the phone was able to read the SIM.
Right after the Factory Reset, I got the update notice for 7VGE-UEE1.
After this update, everything seems to be fine.
Maybe, the previous update itself was for the 7VGE - but, the update failed, leaving it at 7VAB?
Is that possible?
I'm really not sure as my phone is still running a stock 5.02 ROM and the update I received on the phone was the 7VGE, not the V7AB.

Seen someone talk about the OTA of note5 verizon version, so I tried my device ,but it's just display "software update is temporarily unavailable. try again later." I tried several times, only same message.
How about your deviece?
My device states that I'm currently updated and there is no update. Did you take the first update verizon pushed?

I had a similar issue. I'd advise to first try a fresh reboot. If that doesn't work, reset your settings in the backup and restore tab (this won't wipe any data). Reboot and it should work then.

I already reset to factory , still not work
I had this issue as well. It seems I had something disabled in package disabler that didn't allow the uodate. I re enabled everything and then the uodate went through immediately. Then, of course I disabled again

I have reset to factory, so there's nothing disabled now,but no OTA as well
by the way , I am not using a verizon sim card, And didn't active the phone. it's a unlock version ,and using other sim card fine.
I have the same issue. I'm not Verizon customer using other 3g network. With this sim cannot get Ota updates
finally , I use smart switch update my rom, it's seems that the wireless charge issues got fixed
Are u able to get the Ota update?
I don't know, same message now, maybe still can't ota. I think the 3rd sim card cause this issue.
I heard the the Ota can be done only on Verizon network with Verizon sim
i am trying to update my s8+ with Oreo, it downloads over OTA (1513mb) but during update (in blue screen) stops at 24% and restarts with update failed message. I cleared partition cache - didn't help. I tried smart switch but it doesn't show software available. I was recently using phone with AT&T - not sure if it makes any difference...
thanks

Is it possible that my phone installed att software when I was using Tt some card and that's why I cannot install t-mobile Ota? How can I go back to t-mobile version without wiping my data? Thanks
Same here with an unlocked Sprint s8+ on At&t. gets to 24% then crashes and reboots...
Have you tried flashing using Odin?
How do you install it using Odin? Where can you download the update? Don't you have to be rooted to update with Odin?
Fixed for me
I just got an unlocked AT&T S8+ and put it on my verizon account and had the same issue. I tried everything I could think of: clear partition cache, factory reset and same problem. I tried Verizon Software Update Assistant and it claimed success, but the phone was unchanged. I also saw a similar issue on another website with an older phone (S5, I think) and they were successful with an update only after taking out their SD card, so, getting desperate, I tried that. No change.
Finally, I downloaded and ran Samsung Smart Switch on my desktop and it worked! I can't swear that none of the other things I did didn't also have an effect, but definitely give the Smart Switch a try.
I switched to Vodafone recently, and after inserting my new SIM into the phone, Vodafone apps appeared automatically.
I know also discover that in the 'System -> About Phone' there is now a 'custom version' listed as VDF.xxxx.
I also can't register for the beta program and I also can't scan for the new v10 release.
How can I 'unbrand' my ROM to be back to a normal unlocked one (as it was and as I bought it). Is it possible to flash a stock version over it and start again? Or even flash v10 'stock' directly on top of it ?

Forget the beta, stable is rolling out now
You will receive an update to the vodofone branding when you insert your vodafone sim, nothing you can do about that, only way you can get back to clean stock is remove sim and factory reset, but it will happen again once you insert the sim
No stock 10 to flash, wait for OTA

Since I can't find any stock firmware for my C431R2 - and I don't dare to flash any other variant - I'm kinda stuck. I don't even want v10 right now, I just want to loose the Vodafone branding.. maybe I'll go to a Vodafone store and force them to undo it.
Will a factory reset clear the branding? Since it's labeled as firmware I'm kinda afraid it will survive a factory reset .
If a factory reset works, I can just ignore the Carrier-update, right ?
Same issue with Altice in France...
Luckily I disabled auto-install over night before it installs, but it is downloaded and I can't find where to delete the file... I guess it is not possible.
I didn't reboot my phone for a whole month, scared that it might install the custom ROM.
But I start to believe that if I don't install it first, I won't get v10....
not sure if I should remove SIM card > reboot > install v10 when available, or just can't do anything and have to install the custom rom if I want further updates
I'm so glad my Telco (Telstra) doesn't push these updates, I don't think you can remove them easily apart for factory resetting but what I would do is:
turn off phone > remove sim > connect to hisuite > backup > then reset to factory through hisuite > update through hisuite > restore backup in hisuite > insert sim.
But this seems like a pain on the ass to do every update and it's probably best to just not use companies that push carrier updates.
Hello!. I have a P30 from Claro operator (I'm from Colombia) and I would like to know if you can flash to a global firmware without having to unlock the bootloader. The operator firmware bothers me a lot because it doesn't update often.

Have you tried to factory reset without any simcard? or even factory reset and update via hisuite?, if it did remove claro updates it would probably install them again when reinserting sim but you can just turn off auto updates in developer settings under "Automatic system updates" (https://androidcure.com/huawei-p20-enable-developer-options-usb-debugging/).
In regards to flashing firmware you may be able to use usb-otg method (https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p30-pro/how-to/help-please-change-firmware-o2-phone-t3999837) and (https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...orial-vog-l29-flash-firmware-153-usb-t3928793)
Flashing the global rom over your rom may brick your phone and I would try a similar firmware to your current one before trying the global firmware.
Using HiSuite, I managed updating to v9.1.0.240 and ignoring the custom update. I think v10 will be installable just the same way without the custom version soon.
But from the smartphone update system, it still shows me the downloaded custom v9.1.0.1.
So I need to get my hands on the FullOTA version of v10 for my model so I can actually try flashing it.
But I can't even find any v9. 1 FullOTA version for my rom, let alone v10.
Only on that paid firmware download site, but it sounds very sketchy and bogus to be paying 17 dollars for a download (if they actually deliver)
Hi everyone,
In August I received an OTA for my SM-G955W. I installed it and immediately after it rebooted I got an “Invalid SIM” error message.
I took my SIM card out and put it in another phone and it worked perfectly. I put another SIM in my phone and it gave the same error. So obviously the problem was with the phone, not the SIM.
There is a Reddit thread dealing with this exact problem.
https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS8/comments/i9b58o/invalid_sim_card/
I managed to get my phone working by flashing an older modem version using ODIN as was suggested in the Reddit thread (posted above). But now I cannot get any future OTA updates because it says “Your current software version issue supported”. Presumably that is because I have a mismatched modem file flashed.
Is there any way out of this?
Is there any way to get LineageOS on this device? It is a Snapdragon processor and I think the unofficial LinageOS builds only work on the Exynos models. Or is that incorrect?
Thanks,
The Fish
Flash with odin original firmware for your country and carrier sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s8-plus/firmware/#SM-G955W .
purchasing a korean phone (in my case s10 5G U+) sim unlocked, the sim card was working good, after updating to the latest march update the sim worked for about one hour then a crossed circle appeared on the top. and no sim card can be read.
what does it mean ? what should I do ?
is it locked or a software issue ?

I don't know if you've already tried this but, try backing up the data that you want to save from your device, then boot into to recovery and choose factory reset, when the factory reset finishes, wipe the cache partition while in recovery then reboot the device.
Contact customer support for your mobile carrier and tell them that you lost service after the update was applied, then see if there is anything they can do from within their system to restore your cellular/network connection. If they mention sending you a new SIM, tell them no and that you will try to fix it first and then if it doesn't work you will accept a new SIM from them. Try finding a different solution before you resort to getting a new SIM because the issue might not even be the SIM but it's worth trying to see if they can do anything before you start trying to find software/flashing solutions that you can do yourself.
If you flashed the update yourself, you might have used an update for a different region. If this is what you did, you need to find the update for your model number and for your specific region, country or carrier. Or you can flash just the modem img or bin file that has been extracted from a firmware update that is for your region, country or carrier.
If that doesn't work. Try flashing the firmware version that you had before the update was applied.
