Hi,
I did a full wipe and flashed stock Pixel factory image. I turned on my phone without a SIM card, and connect to wifi directly for setting up the Google stuff. After everything settles, I found the timezone is set to GMT-5.
I turned off the phone, and put in the SIM card, then turn it on. But it still says my timezone is GMT-5. I have to turn off the automatic timezone settings and manually set it to GMT+8.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks.
Normally your time is synced via your provider. So with no SIM card it can't do that.

Hey guys, today I installed a new game and started it and came to the screen where you download game files and got "No Wi-Fi Connection"
Then I pressed the home button but my phone froze so after waiting some minutes I took out the battery and booted it.
Since then its in the Airplane Mode and nothing will turn it off..
I wiped dalvik, data, even flashed a new ROM but NOTHING.
Then I took the SIM from a different phone and the airplane mode was turned off and everything worked.
So what you guys think the problem is ?
I mean a game cant mess up my SIM Card right ?
It's possible that the game messed up a setting on the phone that lead to a SIM card defect.
Tried the SIM card in another phone?
a) If it's working, try reinserting into your phone and booting again. Sometimes it's just the swapping fixing your SIM again (registering to a new phone with the carrier)
b) If it's not working, I'd exchange the SIM.
a2) In case a) didn't fix it: factory reset, battery pull for 30mins, in case those two fail as well --> b).
Nothing worked :/
I guess I got to change it
While navigating the hboot menus on my HTC Desire S, 2.3.5 Stock, Sense 3.0, I accidentaly pressed "simlock|"
It reported:
FAT32 init OK
Open MCCMNC file fail
Open CID file fail
It has definitely messed something up: my phone boots, accepts my SIM pin, unlocks my SIM, displays my Mobile Provider as one of the network options to connect to, but fails to register with the network every time.
So it doesn't mention that the phone is locked, or ask me to enter an unlock code or anything... but the sim that was previously working is now not working at all...
Any ideas? Will an RUU or anything get my phone back to a working unlocked state?
First of all I would try this: remove SIM card, SD card and battery (everything actually), put them back and reboot the phone to see what happen.
As the last resort, If you don't mind reinstall all your apps and data (it will erase everything), you could simply execute and hard reset:

Thanks - did that - but no luck - the phone totally reverted to factory settings, but the SIM is still not registering on the network... it seems a change has taken place at an even lower level...
The error that you wrote gives you "fail". Doesn't look like it has been done something to the phone.
Do you have any other option in hboot?
How about turn off the radio a couple of times (airplane mode) then reboot?
I found this by the way:
http://www.simonjstuart.com/2011/05...not-allow-a-connection-to-this-network-error/
I remember I solve it by playing with airplane mode and turn off the phone few times, with my friend Desire S.
It definitely did something - for 4 hours, no ability to get onto mobile network. Seems it mayt have actually modified the SIM card. I managed to get it working again - I put the SIM in another phone, booted, and then put it back in my phone and it's working again - do you think that's possibly what fixed it?
Could it be.. you never know..
That's interesting thus, looks like the SIM card got somehow "resetted" by the other phone.
I'll keep this in mind for the future.
Hello Everyone,
To start with I was using my Infuse 4G blissfully after unlocking it since August 2011 on Tata Docomo Network (India) until yesterday when I changed the sim card as I migrated to another service provider Vodafone India.
I'm running [ODIN][UCKD5] Odin - Stock (100% or Root+3e) - (Update 06/05/11)
The phone has gone crazy ever-since I changed the sim.
It logged me out of all the apps like google account, twitter, facebook which is fine coz I logged back in.
But the wifi, GPS & data (although apn is empty) wont turn off. The moment I turn it off the next very second they'd turn back on.
I inserted the old sim and backed up everything using Wondershare MobileGo.
Turned off the phone. Inserted the new sim.
Then I deleted all user data from 3e recovery mode and then rebooted the phone.
Setup everything but no go. Samething. Wifi wont turn off. Cant save APN settings and now a new problem cropped up - I cannot turn on USB debugging.
Infact it will turn on (green check comes on) but the moment I inset the usb cable it overrides the usb debugging mode and asks me for options.
Then I tried > settings > privacy > Factory Reset
Again. No go. Same problems. Now I'm going crazy.
I have been trying to get things working and it's 6.28am in the morning (I haven't slept all night) - I need some help. Please.
Solved
Finally solved the problem.
Inserted the old sim and turned off Avast Anti Theft then inserted the new sim. Done

My Xt897 has a HARDMOD to use brazilian SIM card (vivo), unlocked, rooted and still with 77.6.36.XT897 SW version (I'm afraid to do the automatic motorola upgrade that's appears every time on wi-fi)
I can't configure my APNs to Vivo (brazil). the configuration screen not save any information every time that I try and all list of apns still blank...
I tried edit the apn file, but changed or erased the file nothing happens on the configuration apn's screen
any suggestions?
thanks a lot!
I had this issue on my phone when i played with switching from sprint back to gsm a few times and only thing that worked was a full reset. once you reset it set it to gsm only and the appns should be blank at this point you can add your new apn. you can also try to remove all aps there is like 7 of them under gsm only then power down phone and restart and see if they stay blank. once they are blank then you can add your apn.

So got this shiny new phone and decide to root it for adblock etc.
The root went fine, I used the Xperia-L root zip not the chop--- something. So a while after that, maybe a day or two suddenly I get a No Service.
I went into Settings-Mobile Networks and try to choose the network manually, I couldn't, I can move through Auto and Manual but when I select Manual it always goes back to Automatic. Can you guys confirm that that settings doesn't work? Can you choose Manual instead of Automatic?
Then the phone scanned for available networks and it found my home network relatively easy...
NOW selecting my home network gives me the error "Could not join network right now. Please try again later"(or something like that). A minute after that a toast message pops up "Registered on Network" but I still get no service...
Anyone have any idea? I thought Sony phones are root friendly with them sponsoring CM and all....
I have tried everything. Unlock, relock bootloader, restored TA...flashed stock firmware....taking the sim card out while power is still on and inserting it again.....
So frustrating, thanks for any insight....:fingers-crossed:
It happened with me..
What I did is,
Switched off the phone
Removed SIM card
Restarted phone
Again switch it off
Inserted the SIM card
Restarted the phone..
It worked!
