Yep, same with me after I added a second SIM. Really annoying since there's more than enough space.

SIM problem on my One XL (LTE)

Hi since I can't find a forum for the One XL I assume it's shared within this one.
I just got my One XL yesterday and it's been having what seems to be a SIM card problem. The phone will be normal sometimes but will lose all mobile connectivity suddenly. Is this a known problem? The connectivity comes back on its on but it could be after a few minutes or few hours. Apart from returning the phone, is there anything I can do? Note that WiFi works perfectly.
Yes sir that would be a common issue among the hox .

When you say "XL," so you mean an imported XL from Asia? Rogers? AT&T? The AT&T's the one having some radio issues. I don't think the Rogers' is. And if you imported yours there could be a number of reasons you're having connectivity issues.
@barryH_GEG: I live in Hong Kong and the One XL has the right bands for 4G and HSPA+.
@tyshemi: is there a software fix to this or is returning it the only option?

Gentlemen,
What the h.. is with this phone? I got it as well last Friday and I have exactly the same problem - it loses all mobile connectivity and only emergency calls can be done .. for which a SIM card won't be needed. It doesn't look like a software pronlem to me, it looks more like a hardware problem! I've seen this behavior immediately after I received the phone and I immediately went with the phone in a Vodafone shop. The guy did not look surprise at all. He took out the micro SIM for couple of times and after wards it worked OK. I went home and after couple oh hours it happened again!!!
@ HTC developers:
Gentlemen, are you joking with this device? What's going on in the testing team?
Indeed it is a LTE phone - and it is known already that there are lots of problems with the 4G software, but the SIM card not to be seen by the mobile? How could this be possible???
Please do something about this!
I will send back this device immediately!
Cheers
I myself have exchanged my HOX for this issue twice now. AT&T knows about this issue and refers to it as a manufacturing defect with the SIM card reader while not in a LTE area.

In Australia, we have this issue on our 32GB One XL. Apparently it's a particular version of micro SIM. One specific version has this issue, the other doest.
I've seen it happen a couple of times on mine since I got it. If it happens again, I'm going to put some very thing pieces of paper under the sim card to make it marginally thicker and press firmer against the contacts when it's inserted.

Hi guys,
Just to give you an update about my HTC ONE XL. Unfortunately, I have only bad news about it !
I went yesterday to Vodafone shop and they changed the micro SIM card. They gave me a different one - also a brand new one, and I have the same problem, the phone loses the connection with the SIM card. Since yesterday it happened already twice! I've seen some discussions here about the WiFi. Just to mention that in my case the Wifi can be used, only the network is gone and stays gone until I restart the phone.
HTC ONE X also loses the connection with the SIM?
My micro SIM card does not have a 4G subscription anyway..
Cheers
Try putting tape on the plastic side of the microSIM to see if maybe you can get a more solid connection?
My One XL would keep loosing reception and saying "no sim" even though it was clearly working. I deactivated my SIM pin and it seems to have stopped dropping out and saying "no sim" Give it a try.
I have One XL and I have no sim issues, it could be the piece that you use. As for the signal drop, it does happen to me sometime, and I think it tries to connect at LTE then goes back 3G. Try to force 3G only then try.
Setting on network menu could help too. Try *#*#4636#*#*

Been having the same issue and found it in the logs. Not sure if other people are seeing the same thing though. Post with info.
Hi guys,
I sent back the phone last week and yesterday I got a new one with a "newer" IMEI. Since yesterday, the phone did not lose the connection with the SIM card.
I was told that, indeed, some of the first HTC ONE XL modeles released on the market had the problem described by us on this forum/topic. The nature of the problem, hardware or software is not known to me so far but I believe it's a bit of both..
Cheers
This happened to me and updating radios to 1.88 or higher fixed it. did not work well with 1.85 radio. Radios dont come with custom roms. They have to be installed separately or with a ruu. There is a radio thread in development. You must be rooted. Ive only had 1 person tell me they still had problems after updating.. if it doesnt fix it, get another phone. Its a legit reason. Main reason for a phone is to make calls. kinda hard to do that with no mobile connection. :crying:
Edit: here is the radio thread. 1.88 or higher. 1.88 is my favorite. The telus seems to be great also. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694012

I recall the comments above. The connection with the SIM card was also lost for the new HTC ONE XL phone, but this time after about 40 hours !
Software running on this phone: 1.82.162.6
Android Version: 4.0.3
I have no other option but to send it back again, and go for a Samsung ..

i have question though.. the guys who have sim problem does your network drop from 3-4 bars to 0?.. in mine i have noticed that it actually drops to 1 and then only goes to 0 bars for 2 sec.. then catches up... but if i keep it to gsm only mode.. i get full bars all the time... what do you guys think is the problem.. network or the phone has bad way to switch between the network types?
and jsut in general the network fluctuates a lot on this phone.

[Q] Need help with Fujitsu F-02e

I have the F-02E. I set up the APN for T-mobile UK and things were fine until i switched wifi on and the signal disappeared. i restarted the phone disabling wifi before hand. it was working fine.....is there a way to sort this out.
Another problem is when i open whatsapp to verify my number, it failed the first time with sms due to signal disappearing, second time it asked to call, the second i click the call button signal disappears and i can't receive or make calls, i have tested this several times, waited an hour pressed the button waited 10 mins pressed the button, same thing happens.....Any ideas as to why?
Hey man,
Did you manage to sort this. I am sort off ordered this phone. Does this support 3g mobile data? I am in the UK. How is this phone for general use?

I know it's too late now to advise you. Are you enjoying the phone?
I bought mine mainly because of the camera and screen. I am not disappointed with the screen but cannot say the same about the camera. The camera software is a joke with very loud shutter sound that cannot be turned off.
One other thing that bothers me is the heat. When I am using Internet on 3g,it gets so hot and the phone keeps shutting down or else I shut data off or turn on wifi instead. And the battery life is very unimpressive.
I was using galaxy a3 4g, so I was able to see the difference. I respect Samsung more now.
The Fujitsu is a nice phone anyway except for these niggles.

Galaxy S7 LTE problem's

Hello from Bulgaria.Some one have had a problem with 4g network.Samsung S7 when he was lte \ 3g \ 2g after 30-40 minutes , scope disappears and receives a missed call notification.The problem gone after restart the device and after 30-40 minutes is same situation.If a phone is an 3g\2g no problems.
Sorry for my bad english.
Same here
My cousin bought an S7 Edge, but it had the same problems as listed. She then proceeded to change the phone, yet the other S7 Edge had the same problem. What could be the solution to this problem, and what caused it?
I change 3 phone 2 black and now give to me gold,for now i don't have a problem with the gold piece. Everything work fine.

We changed two gold ones, awaiting for the third. Problem seems to be persistent.
Hi!
Go to settings and find your APN-settings. Remove IPv6 and save it. Then everything should work fine.
I'm having the same problem. I'm sitting beside my friend with his ip6s+ and he's not having trouble connecting with the lte. just saying that this might not be just a network problem.
I've read about multiple people, including me having this issue, for some the APN IPv4 switch seems to work, but not for everyone. So what is this? Is it related to the phone hardware or software? Or is it a network problem? And will it be fixed? As this is starting to irritate me a bit..
Many People in my country (indonesia) is having similar problem. The signal somehow stuck in 3g. Forcing it to use LTE only using the app "4G LTE Switch) makes the signal gone, emergency only mode. Only a reboot would bring 4g back.
However it only acts up when using one specific mobile provider (telkomsel). Switching to my second sim, also by the same provider, didnt help. But if I switched to another provider, the problem doesnt happen.
Widespread issue in Germany as well. It's carrier independent. Had to exchange one unit. The new S7 Edge I got works fine so far, but has a pink hue on the display. Samsung QA! -.-
Any solutions or updates?
Solved?!
Hi,
I had the same problem in bulgaria with telenor.
Yesterday i got an update on my s7 edge to XXU1APCH and it seems to solve it.
This night it stayed connected. Normally i had the no service available in the morning.
Anybody else see the same?

Downloaded bulgarian firmware,, XXU1APC8 is the only one available. Tried to check for update, nothing yet to xxu1apch...
Update:
Emailed Indonesian Samsung Support, they came up with a temporary solution:
go to phone, dial *#9900#
select debug level disable/low
change to mid
wait for phone to reboot.
2 hours past no signal lost yet
update: 3rd hour signal gone again
hi,
has anyone found a solution for the problem above?
in my case I have really slow internet (mobile data) on 2,3 or 4G, it's like it freezes when I try to open a page
when I connect to 4G it maybe works for a second and then nothing else, it's like 2G, very slow (wifi works normal)
can it be hardware problem? I already cleared cache and reset the phone, but it's still the same..
At me the phone can not change back to 2G from LTE, if 3G network is unavailable.
If I use LTE/3G/2G option and somewhere is not 3G network I can't receive or make voice calls.
Phone only works with 3G/2G option in network mode.
But in this case I only can use edge if somewhere only 2G and 4G networks are available.
If I use LTE network, the phone doesn't receive incoming calls.
I bought my samsung s7 gold one month ago in Lebanon (Middle East). I faced exactly the same problem, I couldn't receive any phone calls. Went to the store and they told me to switch from LTE/4G to 3G. Now my phone is always on 3G and working ok so far. But I can't put it on 4G !!!
get new simcard will fixed problem
Hi, is there a solution to this?
got info that there is a patching from samsung for this issue but since i am using custom rom, i cannot confirm this.
anyone has any update?
Same problem! I'm from Mexico and i just bought my pink s7 Edge on sunday, i've been going everyday to the carrier store and yesterday they finally gave me another one but im having the same issue! I can't take it anymore i don't know what should I do Maybe all the pink ones have the same problem? They have already changed my SIM Card, i have tried with another one and it still happens
This sounds very similar to the LTE problem on the Nexus 6P I wonder if it is actually the same problem.

Are you using wifi+? I do and I wonder if its caused by automatic switching between wifi and network?

I'm wondering that myself. A family member has a P9 Lite and it also occasionally disconnects during calls. It has wifi+ enabled. Maybe it does more harm than good.
I'll turn it off and see if that stops it... I certainly don't have the issue when no wifi is available

Maybe try with carrier aggregation off.

You might just need a new sim. I had a dodgy ee sim I transferred from one phone but the new phone didn't like it and caused similar issues. I had to change it twice before it was OK.

(SOLVED) Mobile data turns on and off unless Wi-FI is on

EDIT: it was T-Mobile's signal, not my beloved device.

Hey guys. This popped up out of nowhere
My data disconnects, quickly reconnects, then disconnects again and again unless I turn on my wifi, then data seems to stick until I turn off wifi again.
https://youtu.be/GUzThuJy14E
I had adguard for a few weeks activated, but nothing changed recently.
It does it regardless of:
Smart network switch being on or off
Aggressive WiFi/cell hand over is on or off
Keep mobile data turned on is on or off
I cleared cache both through recovery and phone maintenance, and I also reset network settings to no avail.
I've never dropped the phone and this started randomly while plugged in. It was at 19% and I plugged it in and noticed it out of the blue.
I'm on a US unlocked (non-carrier) S8+, and SIM works fine with no issues in my Moto X Pure, so it's not the SIM.
Please help guys!
Okay, I popped the SIM into my Galaxy S4 for ****s and giggles, and it's also doing it there, but not on my Moto X. So I'm gonna have to have a chat with T-Mobile tomorrow. Don't get it, the SIM is fairly new, is it a Samsung thing?

I was saying it affects my rooted S4, but not my rooted Moto X when I swapped my SIM into each phone.
But member Britchel says it was affecting them as well, and it was just T-Mobile, nothing to do with the phones themselves, so it's all solved now.
