Google Pixel 2 : Invalid Card - Emergency Calls Only - Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Since I update my pixel 2 (February 2020) my phone cant get into mobile network. on the notification bar displayed 'Invalid Sim - Emergency Calls Only' while on notification center said 'No simcard'. When I try to put the simcard to another phone its worked just fine.
I already tried to hard reset my phone and change another simcard to put in my Pixel 2 but the result remained 'Invalid Card'
When I go to Setting > Network & Internet it just display an option to 'Add a network'
I tried to proceed by tapping the option and it bring me to a page where I can download the esim and I trying to download it whatsoever and it give me an error said Network not active and give EID number to be referred to my network operator carrier.
I think this is not an issue with my carrier. It is hardware issues. please if somebody know how to help this, i literally tried everything to fix my device. or should I just wait for the next update? will they fix it?

SIM card error

HI All;
I am facing unique problem
Here is description-
I am from India and using 'Idea' as a network provider.
My cell phone is HTC touch.
Today for some time I switched off my cell phone for couple of hours , and switched it ON for a use. But since I switched it ON i am getting following Status on status bar
'phone off'
'Searching'
'Idea'
and then again
'phone off'
'Searching'
'Idea'
It keeps on happeneing
I did follwowing things
1) Soft Reset my device
2) Hard reset my device
but nothing seems to solve the problem.
Then I removed my SIM card and put it in Nokia device . While switching ON it dispalyed me a message 'SIM ERROR' . But I was able to make a call and receive messages.
Also I put another SIM card in HTC Touch and phone worked perfectly fine.(I was able to make a call and receive messages.)
But when I put my orginal SIM card in my HTC Touch again above mentioned problem start occuring.
Can any body guide me on this..
Thanks in advance
have u tried contacting ur service provider? they can tell u if theres any prob in area, refresh the network sim, check status of sim and poss replace sim.?
yip, im with Davey on that one, sounds like a faulty SIM card, happens rarely but does happen. Get a new one from your provider.

reset network settings worked for me
I know this thread is very old, but I've recently run into the same issue and found a solution. In the settings, there is an option for "Reset Network Settings". This will remove all your wifi networks and any downloaded access point settings, but fixed the issue for me. Hope this helps any future solution seekers!

Hi!
The same thing happened to me, I couldn't send messages or call until I activated the automatic network mode, otherwise it wouldn't let me call.
I hope I have been helpful with this.

The same problem happened to me, i tried everything..
The only thing that fixed it is:
1. Insert a Sprint SIM card (in my case it came with the device when I baught it. I never had service from sprint and I lived overseas)
2. Select settings >> Network and Internet >> Network settings reset.
3. That is it!
Please note that this method only worked when I inserted Sprint Sim card, it did not work with my actual sim card..
After the settings were reset, I removed Sprint SIM, and inserted the other SIM, and it worked perfectly!

This worked once for me, then I had to remove my tray to insert an sd-card and didn't work anymore... network settings struggle to reset (will take 10-20s and then crash out) what could it be? I'm using a heicard and discussing the procedure in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlocking-lg-g8-sprint-bad-esn.4092771/page-2
UPDATE: if you still get the "SIM not provisioned for voice" message, do a backup, then full restore of the phone, then repeat the above steps. You should now be able to make phone calls, but not connect to LTE. Download an app called "AddAPN" from the play store and manually save the Access Point Name for your carrier (yours will be different from mine, but I'll add it as reference, it's in italian, but you should get the gist, relevant steps are 10 through 14: https://www.helpforsmartphone.com/coopvoce/it/lg/g6/android-8-0/guides/22/Configurare-Internet-LG-G6)
with my sprint lg v50 and i can "Add APN" already.
i dont need an app
@en11gma Are you on android 9 or 10,and what is your security patch level?
Thanks.

S10e is losing connection to mobile network

Hello!
I have this s10e from Verizon and it is network unlock (I talked to Verizon to confirm this), well I bought it new and as soon as I turn it on, it started to upgrade to Android 11. All the update went without any issue, anyway when update was completed. I inserted my SIM card and I did not connect to the mobile network. I went to settings and open connections > Mobile networks change from Global to LTE/GSM/UMTS and manual to select the network. Network selected and I got the message "Can't register on the network" , I try again and it connects but after some minutes it lost the signal and got the message "Unable to connect, try later"
I have try several options, all with the same result, it connects for a while then it lost the connection and it won't reconnect until I try it manually...
These is what I have tried (not ordered in the way I tried them)
- Network Reset (including APN reset to default)
- Manually select the network (I go from Global to LTE/GSM/UMTS and backwards)
- Pull out the SIM, turn off the cell, insert SIM turn it on. When phone turns on sometimes it connects immediately to the mobile network but after it completes the initialization, the cell disconects.
- Erase the cache from the Phone app.
- Wipe cache
- Factory reset
I know it is not the phone because I have a Verizon SIM card and when I inserted it, the cell works flawless, actually since I'm out of USA, the cell connects to the same mobile network (on roaming) I'm trying to use with my SIM card. So I was thinking of downgrade to Android 11 but I found some threads where they reported the same issue (with Android 10) but no solution or they pointed to the workarounds I already tried so I don't think it is an Android 11 bug.
Does anyone knows something about this? any workaround?
Thank you!!

Just guessing as your have already tried many things.
Maybe you still have Verizon CSC installed what works fine with the Verizon SIM card, but leads to unstable mobile connection with another SIM card.
To check, download unbranded firmware for your region and flash it with Odin on PC via USB cable to your phone.
Use the CSC file ... Not the Home_CSC. This will wipe your data.
How this will help.

Evolution X ROM doesn't detect my sim card

I've recently installed the Evolution X custom rom for my Poco X3 NFC and noticed that the sim card is not being detected. On the lock screen, on the top left, the text glitches alternating from "No SIM card" to "No SIM card - No service" to "SIM card - vodafone UK" (my carrier). Unlocking my phone and swiping down from the status bar displays in the top right a similar situation: text alternating from "No service" to "vodafone UK". I read another forum which suggested to uninstall Magisk but yet that did not help the situation. Going into the Settings app and Network and Internet didn't help as the Mobile Network was greyed out, but then it got worse after restarting even entering Network and Internet would crash Settings app. Eventually got the crash message "Carrier Services keeps stopping".
Hope anyone can help me soon, many thanks!
are you on latest firmware global? if not try with upgrading your firmware
Yes, I was. Solved now though - just factory resetting solved the issue.
Thanks for the suggestion anyways.
