hi there, my atrix does not want to register at operator.
My phone was always trying to use 2g cause of better signal.
I went to Admin menu (*#*#4636#*#*), changed to WCDMA preffered, but in about a minute it did not change. I tapped function key and then Select Radio Band, it was only USA - i tapped it.
So he do not even try to register at any operator.
but i can call 112.
there is no any band other thsn USA.
Our band are almost same
900/1800/2100
So at least some operators must register.
may be i can refresh the modem part via bootmenu?
Or is there a way to reflash the modem part?
thanx
motrola forum - https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/353262 same situation, but with other ppl.
i found a solution...
1. backup via CWM
2. phone reset
3. restore backup.
Hi friends,
i was playing around with the title code of this topic.
After entering *#*#4636#*#* in my x10,i selected phone information,pressed the physical menu key on left of phone,than clicked "select radio band". In that there was only option under the "set gsm/umts band" which read "usa band".
I selected that and instantly lost network signal. I live in india and the phone is of usa at&t unlocked.
Now i am not getting signal. I tried to press the menu key again but it reads "usa band only". Tried to manully select network,but no luck.
Finally i also did factory reset,wiped cache partition,reflashed my wolfbreak rom ,but could nt get signal.
What else can i try?
is there any one who can help?
IS there anyway to rollback to original/default settings/bands?
any chance that there is a restore, or similar button inside that menu? Have you checked this?

Okay, here's the fix - I found this out because I did EXACTLY THE SAME (curiosity killed this particular cat!!) and PRESD BUTAN (USA Band) without thinking, on my Japanese X10 (SO-01B), which, as you did, set my phone to the wrong band for Japan. Duh!
Anyway on to the fix...
1) Bring up the service menu with *#*#4636#*#* at the phone dialer
2) Select Phone Information menu
3) Switch the phone to FLIGHT/AIRPLANE MODE (I did this by dragging down the top menu bar on my phone which is running a custom rom)
4) Press the menu key and SELECT RADIO BAND - you'll see the complete list of country bands - do NOT select a band yet....
5) Switch FLIGHT/AIRPLANE MODE OFF
6) Select the country Band you require - you should now see a success message.
7) Congratulations on getting your cellphone signal back
Regards!

Hi Brother,
I'm facing the same issue on my Nexus 6p in India purchased from USA. Do you have any solution to deal with this problem?
Thanks.
Omg! I posted this in 2012 ? After 5 years still people are facing this issue! As far as i can remember i had to reflash stock Rom to get it back to normal. Thanks everyone for replies
Hello, I'm wondering if there is a guide or any info at all about rooting the KDDI's SGS3 LTE. I saw a bunch of thread for the NTT DoCoMo version but none about the KDDI version. No idea if they use the same hardware or not.
Root success by flashing CWM recovery and sgs3_rooting_supersu_v3.zip. Those tools are specified for Galaxy S3 NTT Docomo (SC-06D) but they also worked for Galaxy S3 Progre from AU KDDI (SCL21).
Just wondering how to unlock this SCL21, if anybody knows, please share.

Hi,
First step is flash the CWM recovery via Odin. You can download CWM recovery from here:
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B...ZhbUE/edit?docId=0B98X7HyfoaGaNzNvR052dUp0Wmc
Choose this file: SC06D-JB-KBC-CWM-V6.0.1.2_r10-recovery-odin.tar.md5
Flash that file in Odin, choose the PDA in Odin.
I assume you already know how to flash via Odin, if you dont know just ask me again or try to browse other thread.
Step two is run the CWM recovery. Also, I assume you already know to get into recovery mode. Make backup first in recovery mode, you need to insert external SD card and save the backup in the card.
Step three, download this file sgs3_rooting_supersu_v3.zip from here:
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B...ZhbUE/edit?docId=0B98X7HyfoaGaR21wdXZweDdYSXM and save it to the external SD card that you used before.
Step four, run the recovery mode again and choose install from SD card, then choose external sd card and choose the file you donwloaded (sgs3_rooting_supersu_v3.zip). After completing all, reboot your phone and you will see the Super User app. Make sure you download root checker in Play store so you can check whether the phone are rooted or not.
Note: If you run the recovery, the screen will reverse. Dont worry, it works eventhough the screen reverses.
Thats all. I am looking the way to unlock this phone, *#197328640# doesnt work. If you have a clue, please let me know.

I see a Vietnam website with video on youtube. It shows that this phone has been unlocked.
http://choimobile.vn/threads/unlock-samsung-s3-scl21-au-kddi-nhat-ban.2699/
Any idea how to SIM unlock this phone?, really appreciate any help.
Thanks.
Updated:
I found a new thing regarding this phone. This phone doesn't support non LTE sim card, even you have micro sim (3G) card from AU KDDI. I am trying to find other LTE sim card from other carrier in order to check whether this phone works on that sim or not.
May be somebody can explain why this phone doesn't support non LTE sim. In case of Galaxy s3 LTE from NTT Docomo, it works when I used 3G sim (FOMA). I cut the 3G sim to fit the micro slot.
unlock for this phone
well, my purpose is/was to unlock this phone so I followed the samsung galaxy s3/note unlock method from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014982
(I have/had this S3 Progre SCL21, the same phone in this thread)
I can access all the menu and procedure from that thread below, despite this phone being stock Android 4.04!
----------------
"Main Menu > [1] UMTS > [1] Debug Screen > [8] Phone Control > [6] Network Lock > Options [3]Perso SHA256 OFF > (after choosing this option, wait about 30 seconds, then go back one step by pressing the Menu button then select Back, now you are in [6] Network Lock then choose [4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ ..... wait for a minute then reboot your phone..."
---------------
I put 3G/2G sim card and the phone shows no service. I even put CDMA network sim, no luck. I don't know if this phone is unlocked. I'm wondering if this phone works only with LTE/4g sim. Right now, there's no 4G/LTE in my region
I assume the phone must support all other bands, if properly unlocked.
Now, I'm wandering through the threads and googling.
So far, I'm looking for Jelly Bean 4.1.1 for this phone, which doesn't seem to be available anywhere, even on samfirmware, only stock firmware
Root/flash CWM recovery and try some other unlock method from out there, (after making a backup Stock ROM and sensitive IMEI/NV data of course)
Please keep everyone updated and keep the spirit alive

Actually this phone, SCL21 can be used with LTE sim card only. I already tried to use non LTE sim card from KDDI AU with no luck.
What I am thinking is actually this phone maybe unlock-able by using the procedure as you mentioned (NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ). Since the phone can only be used with LTE sim card, we need to try LTE sim card from other carrier in order to test.
The problem is I dont have other carrier LTE sim card right now, if you have you can try it.
Update: Also I am wondering how to make this phone works with not only LTE/4G but also with 3G/CDMA. I changed the band to automatic, but there is no luck. I think this phone is locked to be used only with LTE/4G sim card. So, if somebody knows how to deal with this matter (make the phone not only accepts LTE/4G sim card, but also 3G/CDMA sim card) please share with us here.

Hi everyone ^_^
I just got the SCL21 about two weeks ago. I think it's really strange that even on the Japanese forums, there is very little info on rooting this model. From everything I've found, some Japanese sites also both say it's OKAY to root using the Docomo SC-06D recovery and Superuser zip while others say that it's NOT safe to use that same method and it will result in a bricked phone. Really odd, conflicting messages I think.
What is even more strange is the apparent issue with the screen "reversing"? One of the Japanese sites literally said the screen becomes "upside down" after flashing the SC-06D recovery.
Brong, since you got the root to work successfully , could you please elaborate on the "reversing" of the screen? Is the image upside down and only during the recovery mode? Also, do you know if the root caused you to lose the "osaifu Keitai" touch feature?
Thanks a lot to Brong and everyone else helping out with this model phone!!

Status of SIM access
Hi,
I tested both a 3G micro SIM and a 4G LTE nano SIM from Softbank in this phone and neither card is recognized. The phone acts as though no SIM is inserted at all. (Complete with the "no smoking" symbol (circle with diagonal line through it) instead of a signal meter. I have confirmed that this phone is indeed sold already SIM unlocked from the factory as the MSL is 000000 just like the Verizon Galaxy S III which is also sold without a SIM lock. Additionally, KDDI lists the SCL21 and all other LTE phones they are selling since the debut last winter as being SIM unlocked devices.
According to some Japanese forums, they are suspecting that this phone has some type of hardware lock (hard locked?)... I contacted the only known person who was successful at using a 3rd party SIM on the Vietnamese Viettel GSM network as in a YouTube video. He wouldn't give me any details except that he must have the phone physically in his shop to modify it and it can't be done remotely. This individual also has screenshots showing the stock ROM version running in Vietnamese which makes me believe that he flashed something to the stock ROM to gain SIM detection of 3rd party cards.. Anyone have any ideas about such a hardware locking mechanism?

my phone need to unlock, please help
He's referring to the service mode. In that case, here are the steps to perform an unlock using the service mode (tested to work ONLY on the docomo models SC-06D and SC-03E; NO GUARANTEE IT WILL WORK ON THE SCL21):
1. Enter service mode by dialing the code in the dialer.
2. Press "UMTS".
3. Press "Debug Screen".
4. Press "Phone Control".
5. Press "Network Lock".
6. Press "Perso SHA256 Off".
7. Menu->Back (if the menu button turns up nothing, then just push "back") then wait 30 seconds.
8. Press "NW Lock NV Data Initallliz" then wait around one minute.
9. Reboot the phone and it SHOULD be unlocked. Works great on the SC-06D and SC-03E, no guarantees with the SCL21. And with the SC-03E newer basebands either hid it away or blocked it out so an older one needs to be flashed in before it will show up for unlocking.
Anyone looking to get one should only do so when they've got a trip to Vietnam in their future (to go get it done in a shop there; they still seem to be the only country with shops doing it) or be using au in Japan.
s3 scl21
that`s the first instruction i found when i was browsing the net and tried it but unfortunately it didnt work...... there are still settings in the service menu and all you have to do is click everything that has something to do with the wcdma to gsm..gsm to wcdma or g to wcdma something like that. There`s also a setting that tells somethin like resetting cant remember the exact word and you have to wait for 90 or 60 secs.and restart the phone .and then go back to changing gsm to wcdma .,there`s a setting also that you have to change the frequency .cant remember the step by step guide but because of my eagerness to use the phone i clicked everthing in the service menu and searched every command listed in there.(dont worry it will not brick your phone).After doing all that... this is what happened .. i thought i failed again because the no smoking sign was still there ...so what i did was i clicked the settings and i was so surprised that the menu for mobile network comes out meaning to say that i was able to unlock the settings on the network ..im telling you guys this is what vietnamese unlockers have been doing to unlock this phone that is why they need the phone physically....thats all thanks
And it never prompted for a SIM unlock PIN again? Somebody really needs to go through this carefully and document it; an SCL21 is only 24-25k yen in Japan; I've heard of people paying more to fix broken screens on their international/American S3s.
scl21
as far as i know this particular phone model (s3 scl21) from AU KDDI is not sim locked . The first time i inserted the 3g simcard, it didnt ask for a pin code or anything ...what i could see was the no smoking sign and the simcard icon is there in the apps menu.
it's diffcult to unlock... i can't use in my country... please help

Hi,
I have just return from US and I got a LG Leon from MetroPCS to sty connected while there. Now that I am back I unlocked the phone via unlock app. My surprise came when I put me Spanish SIM card (Jazztel) and the phone only gets 2g connection. I have been searching the net and I found some threads on the topic but I can not make any of them work on my phone. First I tried changing the radio to Europe mode through *#*#4636#*#*, and I enter the test page but when I click the phone info button I get a message that states that I can not run that application on this device. I thought it was because I wasn't root so I rooted it. But before I could root I had to downgrade by flashing an older firmware. No way, I get the same message. I tried the hidden menu to see if I could find an entry to change the radio mode, or any type of LTE configuration. Hidden menu on my phone though 277634#*#. I also tried the anycut option, but I do not get any facility called LTE configuration or similar.
I am desperate and I do not know how to proceed. Any help is welcome
Thanks in advance
Hi everyone,
First post on XDA after years looking for solutions for my smartphones here.
I was playing a bit with my Archos 50 Diamond (dual-sim, 2015), in order to use it as my main phone, as my current one is slowly dying. I purchased a new touchscreen I replaced myself as the former one was broken, and tried to put my SIM inside. No signal.
I tried a factory reset. Still no signal. SIM was detected, asked for PIN, but no signal. After searching in several forums, I managed to arrive on Radio Info settings. (code through dialer is *#*#46363#*#*, anyway I cannot access any code through the dialer, don't know why, so I arrive there using an app downloaded on Play Store)
As I was playing around, I chose "Choose Radio Band" and selected USA Band. Big mistake. All frequency were gone (GSM, LTE) and the "prefered network" option is stuck on "WCDMA only". Of course, I live in France, we use GSM/LTE frequencies, so no signal.
Moreover, the "Turn Radio on" button doesn't affect the radio cells.
After a few factory resets, I already tried the following :
- erasing modemst1 and modemst2, through fastboot. It resulted only in erasing IMEI, great. I restored IMEI through "IMEI changer.exe" I found on the web. Both IMEIs came back.
- enabling all necessary bands through CDMAtool (or Qualcomm QSPT/QXDM tools, it's the same process, using Android Diagnostic Mode) - All GSM/LTE bands will appear on the smartphone using an app like "Network Signal Guru". After that, I can change "prefered network" in "Radio Info menu", so this is better that stuck on "WCDMA prefered". But the SIM is now undetected, no PIN is asked, so I cannot even verify if signal is back.
- Adb shell su -c "radiooptions [arguments from 0 to 8, 0 resets, 5 turns on)" _ using option 5 will actually turn Radio on, but no effect on if the SIM is detected or not. By the way, it turns radio cell for 1st SIM, but not for 2nd (we can see it in "About Phone, State" in phone settings)
- Tried to edit build.prop in order to see what I can do, but I couldn't see no effects either.
- Tried to flash NON-HLOS.bin, but didn't help either. I couldn't find fsg file inside my factory firmware image zip.
So for now, I know how to enable bands I need with CDMAtools, and turning on/off radio cell through adb shell or Terminal Emulator. However Radio Cell will turn off automatically on every reboot, need to turn on manually everytime I boot.
But SIM is not detected at all. I'm not sure if there would be some signal if SIM was detected, but it would be great if I could figure it at least.
Phone is rooted, STOCK firmware Android 4.4, no existing custom ROM, can boot into CMW if needed.
I've tried a lot of tutorials, I don't even remember which ones I did or not, but I'm pretty sure I couldn't find solutions on XDA or stackexchange at this moment.
If you can help, thanks in advance
Cheers
