Hey guys,
No matter what I do I can't get my service to work again. All it shows at the top is a little circle with a slash through the middle. I tried installing a custom rom but ran into some problems. So I "restored" my backup through rom manager. But i don't have service anymore. Since this happend I have tried several new roms and I still can't get the service to come back.
Some people say it has something to do with the IMEI but according to my setup I still have one.
I have been working on this problem for nearly 13 hrs none stop! Please help... I have searched everywhere.
Thanks

If your IMEI and all that information is correct then you may have a bad sim card resulting in no service at all. Otherwise i'd recommend using odin to go back to completely 100% stock and see if that fixes it.

Thank you so much for responding. I have tried to restore stock with odin but every time odin finishes my phone still boots up my existing rom. Any quick ideas with that one?
And do you really think my sim could have just gone bad like that? It's free to get a new one so maybe I will try that as a last resort.
I don't know much about rooting but could it be my radio?
A couple of questions?
Is boot loader unlocked, if so how did you unlock, updated ver 1.4 ez-unlock can mess up and relock boot loader. Use ver 1.2 . "Verizon only"
What ROM and kernel? Make sure its for your carrier.
Any radio should be OK as long as its for you phone and carrier.

did you try reprovisioning your device with dialer code *2767*3855?
note that this does wipe internal sd so back ur **** up!
I tired the above number in dialer but always comes up with error saying "mobile network not available".
Am I doing something wrong?
Oh.... You forgot to ad a # on the end of that number. After this everything started working again!!! Thank you so much!

What fixes the problem. This happened to me after flashing the latest MIUI ROM on my Verizon S3.
I tried re provisioning my phone with the number sequence below but it did not work. I also used the phone info app but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.
I am helping a friend to get his One Plus One 64GB to work again after an OTA update broke it.
Initial Problem
Two days ago she started an OTA update which made the phone reboot constantly before even android started. Basically it showed the logo for about 6s then vibrated and restarted again. I later found /o/Android/data/com.cyngn.fota/cache/cm-12.0-YNG1TAS17L-bacon-signed.zip so I assume that this was what was installed.
The phone is completely untouched otherwise. She has no computer knowledge whatsoever and says she didn't give it to anyone.
My attempt
I was able to install cm-11.0-XNPH33R-bacon-signed.zip and cm-11.0-XNPH22R-bacon-signed.zip via sideloading. The phone started ok but was crashing all the time. I am not able to get into settings to activate developer settings (adb) because the crash notifications hinder navigation and after about 10s the whole gui crashes and I see the black screen with the hexagon loading logo. The latter firmware is worse meaning it crashes at a higher frequency.
The Problem
She didn't expect any problems and does not have a backup of her data. Thus I can't do a factory reset or use fastboot.
Question
Did I use the wrong ROM? There seem to be many variants. I haven't found any information which explains the differences.
Could I maybe flash a minimal ROM that would not crash to backup the data and than do a factory reset?
Is there any way to activate adb access without having to navigate to settings?
I've experienced your issues as well when helping another friend out, try using a newer version of cm11s, something like 44S /44R (i dont remember what it is) or 05Q, those should not have the issue and everything should work fine

The problem here is that you flashed an older build, going backwards like that is what's causing the crashes. Grab the latest build from here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347802356
Flash that and hopefully you'll be ok.

That won't help, flashing an older build than what was previously installed without wiping properly will cause problems.

Actually this is what I did in the very first beginning but I encountered the same rebooting symptoms like after the OTA update. Since it didn't seem to change anything I didn't mention it. I used cm-12.1-YOG4PAS1N0-bacon-signed.
Any other ideas? I am about to unlock it with fastboot but really would prefer not to delete all user data.

Hi guys its been a month since I am facing this no Sim error. After N number of restart it detects Sim and issue comes back again after 2 days or if i restart my phone. Then again I have to restart for number of times to get signal back again hence i dont think it is a hardware issue. I don't know wether upgrading to marshmallow has done the harm or a month back i completely drained out my battery, that has done the harm? I tried updating/changing the rom, bootloader Version, baseband Version but no luck.? I love my nexus 5 and 8 don't want to dump it. Please help me find solution.
ROM CHROMA 5th April build date.
Android 6.0.1
Baseband M8974A 2.0.50.2.29
Please help me find the solution for this.

is it necessary to flash userdata.img?
Flashing userdata.img is not necessary if the phone will boot.
I recommend flashing TWRP, booting into TWRP, and copy your data off the phone to a computer.

I don't think it's a hardware issue, because say after 10-12 restarts it detects sim
Maybe the SIM card is defective? It could still be an intermittent hardware issue.

The same Sim card works fine on other devices and tried different Sims too. Still no luck. Can this be a Marshmallow issue? I have read people having this issue after updating it to 6.0.0
I have worked on 7 to 8 nexus 5 phones, all with mm and none of them experienced this sim issue. 7 to 8 phones is not a large sample so I can't really make any conclusive statement.

Will reverting back to kitkat do any good?
Btw after 10 restart i have got back the radio. But this is not the solution but a temp fix. I hope it does not lose it again.
You could try flashing a completely stock kk rom but I am not sure this will fix the issue. You could always try since flashing is quick, setting everything again is a pain.

That is the main issue. Wiping completely and setting up device is really boring. Hence i wanted to know if anybody has tried and solved this issue. Anyways have to try for the love of my nexus ?
I have the same issue (not detecting simcard after booting - no signal after reinserting the card) and a complete reflash of the image has not resolved the issue. Neither has a factory reset etc.
Still stuck with a non phoning phone basically...

Does it get network? Mine also detects Sim but does to connect to network and says no service.
Nope no network at all. No service is all I get as well.
Searching for networks also fails. Via the diagnostics menu I see that the radio is turned off, but I cannot activate it.
Tonight I'm going to take out the battery and see if that resets the hardware... If it works I will let you know.
Hi everyone,
Could really use your help. I tried updating my phone to Lineage OS and post update, my phone's data connection stopped working. I've tried flashing different firmwares to see if it fixes the problem and it didn't. I went back to my old backup, and the problem continues. I can't access any data connection (no phone, or text either).
Any idea on what could have caused the problem. My steps were basically:
Backed up old Sultan 12.1 Rom
Installed Lineage using TWRP 2.8.7.0
Installed latest Gapps mini
Installed the bacon_firmware_update_2015_05-15_DI.3.0.c6-00241.zip
And data problems began
Now i've tried redoing the steps with the latest recovery and it doesn't change anything. And as previously mentioned, I'm having data connection problems in my old backup as well

Yup, I reverted back to my old backup and no flashing of firmware, and it's still messed up.
Found out that my IMEI isn't showing up so that could be the problem. Went through "the entire internet" and found some fixes, trying them now to see if I can get something to work.
Edit: I flashed to CM13.1 stock. But my IMEI is still not showing up. No idea what to do next. My phone connects to the network, but doesn't let me do anything considering it can't find an IMEI.

Okay, I finally got my IMEI back using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-efs-partitions-how-to-lost-t3307793, and flashing stock oxygen OS through their recovery rather than TWRP.
But now, although it reads my sim, my phone doesn't connect to the internet, and when it does, it doesn't connect to 4g. I still can't use data services despite having the baseband and IMEI fixed. So now what are the next steps? Could my hardware be broken?

I've tried Lineage and now Sultans CM13, but still no data man. Just my sim stuff is acting weird, and i know my sim is fine. I'm switching carriers and ordered a new sim. I'm hoping somehow changing carriers helps, otherwise I'm **** out of luck.
Edit: Ok, so on Sultan's CM13 I've finally got the data working, but it only works when its on H+ (4g) otherwise no internet/voice/ text. So is there a fix this?

4G is Lte not H+(3G).
Yeah maybe OPO doesn't support the band your carrier uses for data.

Nope, not the case as I've been using the phone for the last 2 years. I read up that the switch between H+ and 3g happens because the carrier only sends data through H+ not 3g, so it happens to every phone, not just the OPO. But now my problem is, I can't send texts over 3g.
I'm going to wait and see what happens when I get a new carrier's sim.

Thanks for the help guys, I think in this case it was more of a carrier problem. I learned that Wind has been updating their infrastructure causing some network problems. Couple that with a finnicky OPO and you get headaches.
My new carrier seems to be working better (but I've only had the new sim for an hour). Going to do a full day test and see what happens.
Thanks again.

I need file for HTC U-11 Version 8.0 latest one,Following are the details
cid: BS_US001
mid: 2PZC 50000
product: htc_ocnwhl
after ruu and custom rom flash phone boots up normal, however I cant get pass the blue setup screen wizard as my phone isnt seeing any wifi connection and sim card isn't detected. So am stuck there, are there any file to restore my wifi signal and sim signal. I can enter TWRP though. Any and ALL help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance
I have a very similar problem, however I am and have always been on stock ROM. Yesterday suddenly my phone lost wifi and telephony connection. It was just there, sitting on my desk, one minute it was working and I was checking my e-mail, the next one it was not. The phone now detects no SIM card and if I try to enable wi-fi it just hangs in "enabling" status for some time until it gives up and disables it again.
I think it might be some hardware or low-level issue, even if I am having a hard time how anything could happen while my phone was sitting on the desk. Next step is a hard reset and if it doesn't, then there is no hope left I think.
Your symptoms are similar, even if it happened after flashing. The only thing which I hope might help you is that, assuming that your situation is comparable to mine, if you manage to get past that screen or to access the Bluetooth settings, you can probably connect the phone to the internet through Bluetooth tethering. Once you are connected to the internet, many things are easier. Also, is that blue screen the one forcing you to sign in to a previously synced account (factory reset protection)? If so, there used to be a loophole in this, there are several youtube videos about it which you can easily find. Perhaps it's still there.
EDIT: Sorry for the necroposting, for some reason I overlooked the date of the original post.

Just for future reference: my U11 never resumed working after this. I kept using it for two full months, after moving my SIM card to a spare phone (good old M8) and using bluetooth tethering to get it to connect to the internet. I hoped that
for some reason the problem would at some point just go away by itself, which of course wasn't the case. I didn't try a factory reset because other people had no luck with it. So no happy ending for this story.
Should anybody else encounter this problem and land on this thread, I have nothing better to recommend than just doing the same: don't bother trying to fix it, move your SIM card to some older spare phone and use bluetooth tethering to bring the U11 to the internet. This will win you some time to pick a new phone without rushing, while critical things like Whatsapp, authenticator apps and so on will keep working, making it easier to migrate to the new phone.

I had similar situation. My battery juiced down and closed automatically. Then i plugged it to charge, waited for full charge and then opened it. Wifi and Sim were not working after booting. It was there before power is over ans it has gone after powering it back. I tried many things as factory reset wipe cache/dalvik etc. By the way I was using lineage os 17.1 for a few months.
The only thing that worked was flashing original stock rom via download mode. after this i got sim working back but no wifi still. now i am using it as a spare phone with only mobile internet connection.
I showed it to a few repairmen but they told me it is onboard wifi at motherboard of phone and they can't fix it without replacing motherboard which is quite expensive nearly as a new phoe.
If anyone know how to bring wifi back please tell me too.

yes, this can be fixed, i had the same problem coming back to stock from los 17.1, you need to downgrade to oreo then let it update to pie, but it depends on the phone you have, mine is us unlocked, there is a tutorial here somewhere on how to do it. look see if you have a wi fi mac address if it's 2x.00.00.00.00.00, it same as i had.

Yes i have same wifi mac address as 2x.00.00.00.00.00
Thanks for advise, i will try it. Can you refer me a manual for this downgrading? I looked to forums but there is a problem that says it can't be done if it is s-on. I unlocked bootloader before installing los 17.1. Also they say it can only be downgradable from oreo to nougat. So, if you can share a guidance for how to do downgrade from pie to oreo when s-on, it would be grade.

here's what i did:
1. connect the phone to pc and boot into bootloader
2.flash hosd_signed.img (fastboot flash hosd hosd_signed.img) this has to be the hosd for your software
3.once done boot into TWRP and rub the HTC dev info tool
4.change the version number into 2.42.617.7(this is for us unlocked)and hit save apply all changes'
5.run the oreo RUU for your phone.
Where can i find the hosd file?

that is for us unlocked, if your phone is not us unlocked i don't have another hosd.
So I was able to solve this problem by flashing the oreo RUU from htc, then flashing twrp, complete wipe, and restoring a previous LOS 10 backup. Now my wifi is restored, and mobile data is back to normal.

Can you tell more detailed instrustions for how to do it?
I have got los 17.1 backup. when I tried to flash it with twrp it seems flashing but after finishing phone restarts and nothing changed. I tried many times. I got backup but it does not flashing back. What could be the problem?

you need to pull the hosd from an oreo ruu for your phone, if there is one.what ever the software number is.
@ Aldo101t
what do you mean: "3.once done boot into TWRP and rub the HTC dev info tool"

I have a very similar problem, however I am and have always been on stock ROM. Yesterday suddenly my phone lost wifi and telephony connection. It was just there, sitting on my desk, one minute it was working and I was checking my e-mail, the next one it was not. The phone now detects no SIM card and if I try to enable wi-fi it just hangs in "enabling" status for some time until it gives up and disables it again.
I think it might be some hardware or low-level issue, even if I am having a hard time how anything could happen while my phone was sitting on the desk. Next step is a hard reset and if it doesn't, then there is no hope left I think.
Your symptoms are similar, even if it happened after flashing. The only thing which I hope might help you is that, assuming that your situation is comparable to mine, if you manage to get past that screen or to access the Bluetooth settings, you can probably connect the phone to the internet through Bluetooth tethering. Once you are connected to the internet, many things are easier. Also, is that blue screen the one forcing you to sign in to a previously synced account (factory reset protection)? If so, there used to be a loophole in this, there are several youtube videos about it which you can easily find. Perhaps it's still there.
EDIT: Sorry for the necroposting, for some reason I overlooked the date of the original post.

@ Black Antitoon, Read your problem of WiFi and Sim Signal not working. I'm also facing the same issue, exactly a similar one, without doing anything it just happened. Would like to understand if you have got any solution. Thanks in advance

@abhi2301: sorry for answering so late. Unfortunately I couldn't fix this problem. I kept using the phone for two months after moving my SIM card to a spare phone and connecting the U11 to the internet using Bluetooth tethering, which was the only thing that worked. I kept hoping that at some point connectivity would start working again, but that wasn't the case. I eventually gave up. Sorry for not having better news.
As you probably read (from post #13 on), other users had better luck by flashing a RUU, hope this can work for you too.
Cheers
I ran across this post and it fixed my issue regarding no wifi,
My u11 encrypted? lost wifi and mobile signal, after restore rom, it bricked
Please check the pictures: short story first: after reset the ROM with recovery mode, the u11 can go through the encrypting screen, then it will loop and stuck in the setup screen. I didn't really encrypt my phone ever, I only had a simple...
