Hi,
I have the following problem. Problems After Samsung Update - Sim Deactivated I get "Sim Deactivated" This is not my provider, I am well ahead on both account.
I have 2 Sim cards [In Ireland].
48.ie
GoMo.ie
Both work for web browsing etc, anything that needs the net is fine. Its just the calls that won't work. I have searched and searched and not found a solution that actually applies.
Its an S10 - SM-G973/DS Provider of phone Eircom.
Any help MUCH appreciated as I am getting very fed up with no calling.
Cheers - Shaun
Here are a couple of screenshots, they show much more detail about the phone. Also have I posted in the correct forum?
Wow,
Whenever I have used XDA in the past, the users have been so helpful. I cannot be the only user affected by this.
There must be a way of reactivating my cards, or changing a setting somewhere? I have already done a full reset which changed nothing.
Cheers - Shaun
Wow,
Thanks guys. Reverting to old stock ROM.

Hi Everyone,
Please help ... appologies if posted in the wrong place but I thought this would be the best for this problem.
My phone (imate pda2) started acting strangely: no matter what sim card I put in it, it will not complete outgoing calls (they go immediately to call ended) nor accept incoming calls. Calls to emergency numbers work though.
I have reloaded/upgraded the firmware ROM directly from i-mate's website but it didnt help.
I was woundering if maybe a virus could have caused this or more probably a cid lock or blacklist of my imei for some unexplainable reason ...
Any ideas? Im at a dead end ...
I have looked on this forum for similar posts but found nothing so any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks alot,

Are you using Windows Mobile 6? If so, have you enable internet calling? I had exactly the same problem when I was messing about with Internet Calling, I ended up having to turn it off completely in the Phone settings.
Thanks alot for your reply.
Unfortunately I'm using WM2003. This is really making me pull my hair out ;-(
very strange problem indeed i was thinking of problems with you antenna but you said emergency calls are fine!
viruses wont cause this especially you reflashed i.e. clean system
u r not blocked other wise u wont be able to system update

Does the SIM card work in a different phone? If your IMEI is blocked you could try a SIM card from a different provider, I think usually only the provider you have been listed at blocks you.
Hi all !
I've had my Omnia 7 since it came out, and never got the chance to unlock it or anything. I recently changed operator (Orange Fr to Free) and like a lot of people can't receive MMS (i can send them though) and sometimes have to restart phone to regain internet access, after looking around a bit on the french forums a lot of people are unlocking their phones to be able deploy a kind of network profiler app (i think).
I'd like to be able to do this, and at the same time get ICS and anything else that would be usefull.
I've read through this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335452, but to be honest i'm not quite sure if it still works, and i would also like to know if there is anyway of backing messages and any other useful stuff before doing the first steps?
I anyone can help me, i would very much appreciate it, and also if someone knows of an easier way to solve my MMS/internet problem that would be awesome
Thanks

Solved the inter op problem (managed to do it) and used .xml files for APN settings but still cant receive MMS.
Hi everybody! I searched for more than one week about this, but I couldn't find a real solution....
I tried installing CyanogenMod on my friend's Optimus Hub, and I dramatically faced what someone called the "Funny SIM" problem: in simple words, it is impossible to save APNs, and so data connection is not available.
This, as my research suggested, is a compatibility problem between Hub's CyanogenMod and some SIM cards, the 128k ones. In fact, using a 64k sim made APN and data connection instantly work.
The problem is that my friend's telephone company told him that he can't keep his number downgrading to a 64k SIM, so he would have to change his number in order to have 3g/H working, and that would be a big issue to him.
My searches led me to this thread http://forum.xda-dev....php?t=1444328.
This is about Optimus One, and the problem seems to be the same, but the flashable zips in the thread seem to SOLVE their problem.
I downloaded and opened the "Funny-SIM-Fix-OldBB" .zip and had a look at the changes it made:
It replaced some libs and made modifications to build.prop.
I am not very expert in this, but tried replacing CM libs with the stock ones, using the names contained in the .zip I previously downloaded to locate them and then rebooted but nothing changed. APN were the same.
So, Is there someone who tried something else, or is willing to try now?
Thank you for your attention!

Hello
For my LG Optimus Hub e510 I tried the cm 7-9-10 mods.
All with the same effect
in case "APN could NOT be written/saved to the phone" as described by many users.
OK - this prob is described as the "funny sim problem" shown in several forums.
Users worldwide with 128bit sim cards told about this damned effect.
2 "Funny Sim" fixes existing( as much I know).
An old version and a beta. Only result(for my LG E510) after flashing in recovery mod.
Freezing in the boot procedure.
State of facts is actually,there is no idea to change it proper.
That means, with an 128bit sim in your android all these MODS are "no goes" in case of mobile internet via provider.
As it looks? Is it so?
XXX andreas
aw man so no solution for our hub? its been ages since it existed or are the cm devs not working on it any more? if yes does anyone know another good rom for the hub?
Hi,
Just got my Galaxy Relay in the mail last night. So far I'm liking it for the most part (aside from the crapload of bloat). Only real issue I'm having is that my WiFi calling is constantly trying to connect and fails with ER06 "SIM Not Ready". I got this error both before and after doing the OTA to JB. I'm coming from the HTC G2 where WiFi calling worked more or less perfectly, so I know my account/SIM supports it. Already double checked my SIM card to make sure it's the new model needed for WiFi calling. Noticed my e911 address was an old address so I updated that (not that it should really matter as long as I have an address there). Also updated my device in my tmo account settings in case that might make a difference. Updated all this stuff last night and still getting the same error. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas what to try next? Thanks for the help.

One more quick piece of info - the first thing I did when I took the phone out of the box was followed the steps for SIM unlocking the phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2255892. I haven't been able to test with a different SIM card yet to verify the unlock worked, but I'm wondering if this could have screwed up the WiFi calling. Can anyone verify whether WiFi calling still works after SIM unlocking?
Ok good news everyone! After some more searching the wide wide webs I found some info for other phones having the same problem and the solution was to call up tmo and have them reset your iHLR settings. Don't know what it means but I told the support rep to try it and he knew what I meant. After he did it he told me to restart the phone and that it could take up to 2 hours to have an effect (probably just an easy way for him to get out of the chat session). But anyway as soon as I rebooted it was working. Hope this is useful for other people who bump into this problem. Thanks!

Disabled Wi-Fi calling. Problem Solved.
Hey ladies and gents, I have a strange issue with my N5. I am losing data connection despite having a 4-bar LTE signal. Most of the time, I will catch it at work while streaming music from Spotify/Pandora. Once in awhile i'd catch it while browsing Facebook as well. It will show a 4-bar LTE connection, but the apps will report "no data connection available." I've tried surfing Chrome when this problem arises and it says "You are Offline." I found a temporary fix - turning Airplane mode on/off or restarting the phone.
Has anyone ever heard of this, and does anyone have any suggestions. I was running SlimKat before, but now i'm on stock 4.4.4 with ElementalX kernel, with the issue crossing multiple ROMs/wipes.
I also just got off of chat with Google support. The lady is emailing me some troubleshooting steps, and wants me to contact T-Mobile as well. If the problem is still there, she wants me to RMA. What are the steps needed in order to do so. Some quick searches brought up factory images but I haven't found anything recent, and want to make sure I have all my bases covered.
Thanks guys!
Google doesn't care whether the bootloader is unlocked or whether the phone is rooted. If it's a hardware issue, you are covered!
If you want to return to stock before sending it in for peace of mind then follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701
Sorry for the late reply, been pretty busy the last couple of days. Glad to hear that Google doesn't care about the unlocked bootloader! I'll probably just return completely to stock and return it like that IF I have to.
However, I think I may have fixed the problem. I altered my APN settings and changed IPv6 to IPv4 and it seems to have fixed my problem, at least for now (the problem is random so i'll have to use it for awhile to make sure it really is fixed). Anyone else ever heard of this problem, or this fix, especially on T-Mobile?
