Nexus 5 Cellular Issues!

I have been using my Nexus 5 for a while and I noticed something very strange. On my status bar it will show a cellular connection but I will not actually have connection. Then when I go to quick settings it will show emergency calls only only with no connection. I then need to go to airplane mode on and off to reconnect. Weird.
Any solutions?
Anyone else?

Hey there I have the same issue as well!! By any chance are you using a nano Sim card with a micro Sim card adapter as well? I am worry it is the contact between the pins??
Airplane mode
Just try to look at one of: lock screen, notification bar (after connected with WiFi), settings - APN Name, ##4636# mobile phone status.
If you can find correct mobile service provider name, it seems that your SIM card is recognized correctly. If not, try another sim card.
After it, try ##4636# select GSM Only or CDMA only, to see if it can connects. And some info shows if you are using sprint card, you should connect sprint service to provide your MEID. Search if you using sprint.

sim tray and network not working properly

a few days ago I switched from cm to AEX 7.1.2 on my moto g. Whether that has anything to do with it I don't know.
Anyway last night the phone was working fine then this morning I see that the cell network is disconnected and the phone doesn't see the simcard. However when I put in another simcard from a different network it works normally. I switch back to my sim and it works for about 20 seconds where I can make a call or text then it shuts down again and dowsn't recognize the sim then does again once I have switched the sims but only for 20 seconds. I don't understand what is happening to the phone and why it is doing this. I need help. I have tried picking different network modes from the list after inserting this code #*#*4636#*#* nothing has worked so far. I haven't systematically gone through each one at a time yet and the list is quite long. I haven't seen a list of modes that long before there are over 10 of them from auto prl to scdma etc... Some of them I have never heard of like the scdma one. wif and bluetooth are working ok if that means anything. Thanks for any help
Also when I go into settings the network section is greyed out and under prefered network type it says Invalid Network Mode (-1) Ignore. I only tried changing the modes when this problem arose my changing these modes was not the cause
i've had similar issues, when i skipped using mobile data for a long time, my non-data SIM would dropout intermittently. i changed SIM slots didn't solve it either. other SIM was fine in either slot. just before replacing what i thought was a faulty SIM, without turning mobile data on, i just set the problematic SIM for data. that solved mys issue. however, running mobile data on back on the original setting didnt cause any more issues either.

GSM / Network Signal bars grey / unavailable

Hey all, thanks in advance for any advice offered.
For some reason my Galaxy S8+ has a greyed out GSM signal bar with an 'x' next to it. As far as I remember the only thing I did was put it to charge overnight. I've tried removing the SIM, still grey, inserting another carrier's SIM (known to be working), still grey, my original SIM also works fine in another phone. Everything else not related to cell service works fine (wifi, bluetooth etc.). I can see the IMEI number in settings as usual.
I've tried resetting the network settings, factory resetting the phone, I've even reloaded the ROM via Odin. No joy.
The phone is pretty much stock, except for the fact that I changed the carrier software from AT&T to Verizon in order to use a particular LTE band. Since I did that, the phone worked fine for several months.
I've only noticed two things odd thus far. After reloading the ROM and downloading a few updates, a game (Empire) appeared from nowhere installed in my app drawer. Also, the Airplane mode icon in the notification shade is light blue, similar to when it's transitioning from off to on. Airplane mode seems to work though, because I can toggle it, and the wifi reacts as such.
I can't search network operators manually (says: Error while searching for networks), changing the network mode does nothing, and none of the secret dialing codes work either. They all say "Mobile network not available". With a SIM inserted, my SIM status menu says, Network: unknown, Signal strength: -113dBm 0 asu, Service state: Radio off.
Sorry if I'm long-winded, but I'd appreciate any assistance at all. Thanks again for taking the time to read.
I had the same issue and I replaced the daughterboard and antennas

LMV500N SIM Network Signal is DISABLED

I am from the Philippines and I just recently get my v50 after it get fixed for a broken charging port. Apparently, Upon inserting my SIM (Globe) the sim toolkit can detect it but the signal is like jammed and there is an STOP/Disabled logo in it.
Any tips how can I fix it? I can't use my mobile data.
Same issue here looking forward on this
I had a similar issue. What I did was, I went into settings then mobile networks. (Forgive me if I don't explain properly I don't have the phone on me now) and then I think I went into apn, turn apn on Off.. or I think it was toggle with paygo/contract apn and the test.
That got it working for me.
