hi i have a oneplus 6 n im having network issues..most of the times i cnt receive or make calls with both sims..they randomly get full signal n no signal without me doing anything..the preferred network type is set to 2g 3g 4g automatic n sometimes i get 4g signal sometimes edge n sometimes no internet signal at all..sometimes near a sim signal bar it comes a ! sign n sometimes i get notification message mm2 that looking on the net means sim not provisioned or deactivated..but in other headset bot sims works..i hv to mention that ive played around with service menu *#*#4636#*#* when ive got the mm2 message..and in settings about phne sim status most of the times mobile network state is disconnected n service state randomly in service and not in service sometimes under network it says emergency only sometimes no network n sometimes it gives the operator name..imei numbers n baseband are displayed correctly..so now my problem is that i dnt have a constant gsm and network connection..n most of the times i cn get or give calls neither send or receive msgs...i hv updated to undroid 10..n i have downgraded to android 9 to see if the problem would hv being solved..unfortunately not..i bought this phone second hand today..and my mistake was to trust the person who sold it to me without checking the phne n without knowing the person..i maybe a dreamer but i alway hope that ppl are good n are not there to cheat other ppl..but i always fell in this trap n im always proved wrong..anyway that being said i would appreciate any help or suggestion from senior member or even from juniors member who might know more than me..
im thanking anyone who would like to help me in advance..good day

First this only happens where I work in the basement where only certain providers (eg Verizon) have some signal in only part of the room. I did not get signal on AT&T or T-Mobile Pay as you Go down here.
I noticed especially after I flashed the new radio which gives me better service overall that I get phone signal down in the basement, but it is GPRS of Unknown Network and says emergency calls only. I get up to 3 bars. If I scan for available networks I get the name 31064.
Does anyone know what network that is or what is going on?
Anyone have any ideas? (I will take wild speculation as well)
i wouldn't be alarmed by it. I experience this at my office since I work in the basement...haha
It's possible your basement just won't read a signal like mine. install a window by your desk, maybe that'll help, but there shouldn't be anything wrong with your handset.
Sounds reasonable. I would agree with no problems with my handset. I do get better signal than my nokia e51, so maybe it's picking up a slight signal where the nokia could not.
From what I've noticed, my Nexus S acts this way whenever T-Mobile (my provider) does not have coverage wherever I am, but AT&T (not my provider) does. You can check this by going into "settings" -> "wireless & network settings" -> "mobile networks" -> "network operators" .....it will then search for & tell you what network has coverage where you are. Every time I've had bars & it says "emergency calls only" & I've checked the above, it's always been when I had coverage from AT&T but not T-Mobile.
Thus, it seems to me like an "enable roaming for emergency calls only" kinda thing.
Emergency calls only
ha ha....lol... i also have the same issue on my brand new i747M S3. im confused.
i try the all methods for resetting phone.
i noticed when im on long way, i dont know my handset is goning emergency calls only. but when im restsart phone its fine.
i do everything but not fixed it. firmware update, downgrade, rom change,and unroot. but not fixed, and also try factory reset the rom by falllowing the samsung secret code *#197328640# > UMTS>COMMON>NV REBUILD and restart and do again CDMA>COMMON>NEXTPAGE>REBUILD and restart., thhis is the code of full factory reset the rom and EFS. but not solve........
i change the hand set to international i9305 brandnew one. i used it 2 sady without issue.... day after morning when i wakeup, i see the massege,,,,emergency calls only,,im confused becouse this is a brandnew one...after i called the friend he also got the i9305. i asked about this issue. he said me he didnt face to this type of issue.. im confused he said me try sim change.. i do it... problem solved....:victory:
problem is the SIM card......i changed it to new one... and used i week no emergency calls issue... when im going to low signals areas.. its show no network and automaticallly change to the network....im very happy for fixing this problem.....:laugh::laugh::laugh:
I have gotten this message 3 times in the last 5 days. Each time I need to do a reboot to restore cellular/sms service (toggling airplane, wifi, bluetooth, sync, and 4g do not restore cellular/sms). The phone has the same AT&T sim card since day 1 and I have never removed it.
Is this a faulty phone, sim card or both?

Did the sim come with the phone? ATRIX 2 needs newest of sim cards to function properly. If that's not the problem then I'm not to sure.

Yes, same sim card that came with phone.
Could be a faulty Sim, i've had that happen before with other phones, just go to at &t and show them the problem, they should replace it for you!

I wasn't able to solve this problem about an year. But did. And totally sure that it is Device's defect (in some cases it is a ROM deffect as in my case, in other - hardware. Smth like stack overflow issues at GSM controller or so). A year ago when I had face this "sim card does not allow connection... " problem, there are no google serch results on this keywords request. Any. To remove this message I was ought to reboot my device every time it appears. And I was thinking that it is normal behaviour for my device. But now there are lot of complainings at the web ( minimum 5 of Galaxy Tabs P1000, thousands of HTC Disire, few motorolla Deffy, 10 Galaxy Ace, few of Nexus S and so on), so I understand that I'm not alone, and problem is known. So I went to Samsungs Service and they confirmed that it is famous problem, have flashed my phone with some magic ROM (magic because it is official but does not available anywhere in the web, XDA or samsung sites! ) and now my phone works fine. Any other solutions like battery removing, *#*#4636#*#* sirvice menu, new sim-card, flashing variety of modems and roms, didn't helps me. This is not faulty sim. This is serious device's defect. Bring your phone to manufacturer and let them repair it or give your money back. This is their problem not your.
using old 3g prior sim card
With ATT---If you took your old 3g sim card out of old phone and used it. You will get this message. You need to activate the 4g card that came with phone

I have exactly the same issue randomly at times when I try to register on network manually (MTNL Dolphin 3G - Mumbai). Unrooted MB865 ver 2.3.6 & updated on 18th May 2012 to System Ver 55.28.37.MB865.AsiaRetail.en03. If I keep the setting as Automatic in Type of Network & Operator it functions fine fluctuating between Dolphin for local access & CellOne on roaming access in the same area based on cell tower connection the phone registers on alternating between "E" & "H" automatically based on cell mast direction proximity, however if I select 3G only and uncheck automatic for operator then the phone searches for signal for a very long time and fails to show any operator saying "no connection available" & sometimes when "Dolphin" network does appear and try to select manually get the error as "this sim card does not allow connection to this network". I did complain with the service provider and they were supposed to get back to me after checking in their switchboard exchange where I also provided them my SIM number in addition to my cellphone number(no response). Also as is case with poor service of all Indian cell network providers even in urban cities, also face random peculiar issue of call not being received inspite of signal available on the phone & network asking me to recheck the number I have dialled while placing outgoing calls though it is ok and signal is sufficient. Also "Network Speed Booster" app looks like a lot of bull (any other good apps??)
I needed to know using the secret Menu *#*#4636#*#* for 3G GSM service which kind of network I should ideally select for best results & does this setting override the regular menu network settings??
I get "G", "E", "H" randomly based on my locations but no "3G" or "H+" and further at times these icons are grey and sometimes blue and in either cases randomly at different locations sometimes data throughput is not there as only one of the arrow shows active blinking. Any advise on the status based on colors and the blinking of the arrows?? Thanks!

Hi everyone,
In my xperia neo a network the problem started 3 days before
first it was showing the sim and network and i was not able to make any call and then i changed the sim to airtel and it worked for two days. after that it also stopped, when i switch on the phone it initially shows network and after 5 mins it changes to "emergency calls only" but when i search network manually it detecting all networks but i'm not able to register on the home network. it shows network unavailable.. and sometimes network automatically comes and sometimes it automatically goes.....
please help me on this ?????
is it a software or hardware issue??
as i bought the phone from middle east the sony guys are not taking it for service here in kerala
thanks in advance
as the title says , am getting a network signal in the status bar with no sim card installed in the device , where it used to show a stop or block sign before when there is no sim installed , don't know when it started but i have noticed it a week ago , and am on the 5.1.1 update ,
what i have tried so far :
1 - reset the device from the setting .
2 - reset the device with samsung smart switch for windows ( which download the latest firmware for the device & install it ) .
3 - installed the factory firmware with odin , and got the device to axiom telecom which is my warranty service provider , and the told me the have changed the whole motherboard , & after telling them the issue is still there , they showed me another s6 with no sim and there is signal and told me that this behavior is normal ( which i don't think so ) .
4 - contacted samsung directly by phone & email , and they told me to reset the device or send it to service ( which i already did ) .
so , is this behavior really normal ? are any of you guys getting this ?
my device : SM-G920F
country : Saudi Arabia
no its not normal
if you type *#06# you gonna find IMEI become 3500000000006/01
if it is then you cant make calls or send sms ( not registered on network )
its the same problem like me i don't know where this come from but we need some one to give us backup the EFS folder. to restore it back to the phone SM-G920F
please if some one can help us thank you

no , it seem we are having different problems ,
*#06# reveals normal IMEI ,
and i can make & receive phone calls & sms if i install a sim card ,
try resetting yours to stock ,
other than showing a signal with no sim card installed the phone is fine & doesn't have any problems .
Speculation- you'd need emergency service call? I would assume that it's allowed to connect to network for that and not have phone disabled?
More speculation- your being spied on...
-Spy
It's only a display icon. You aren't able to still make a regular call without the sim? If it ain't broke don't fix it.
But to ease your mind just check the network status in your settings. Should say what connected to.
Surely it does have to do with the update itself if your phone still functions as normal.
I'm sure there is a network status with the super secret spy codes that you enter on your dial pad. You know the #secretrandomnumber#* codes...

it could be there for emergency calls ,
in terms of being spied on , ha ha ,i don't think so , the service center changed the entire motherboard which include the eMMC with it's whole partitions .
the sim card status in the settings says Not Available for everything , and yes i can't make calls nor sms without the sim ,
but you still didn't answer my question : do you get this when you remove your sim ?
no one with a similar problem ??
I've seen it on lots of Samsung phones. It's simply a signal for emergency calls. You have to be able to make emergency calls with or without a Sim and that's telling you how much signal you have.
Seriously people this is pretty simple and no conspiracy.
You only get a circle with a line through if you have a sim card installed that is blocked from the network or the phone is stolen / blocked etc.

good to hear ,
what made me think it isn't ordinary thing is that the service center didn't know about it & thought it was a problem ,
thanks a lot .
This was done on last update Samsung gods thought we needed to know how much of a signal we had for emergency calls
Having the same problem with my samsung galaxy s6 SM-920F. showing bars on the signals even without sim. not connecting to network operator as well. showing Disconnected status in SIM status from About.
Tried updating the software even downgrading, factory reset and wiping cache but nothing worked.
Found this thread when looking for an answer to this question. In my case, it is a tablet that hasn't even got a sim option but still has the mobile network signal showing, even when airplane mode is switched on. Just worry it is eating some of my battery life. Any ideas?
I am also getting same problem.
There is no sim card inserted in my phone but still it shows the network bars.. Your And my problem is same.
There, an actual answer. Guess I should add it here since I wondered the same thing
a sim card has nothing to do with the transceiver system of the phone. its literally a "passkey" it is your authentication to USE that network. ie you can always SEE the network you just not allowed to "use it" without permission hence the simcard.
