Hi all,
sometimes my Mozart welcomes me with the enter SIM PIN dialog, although the phone was not turned off over night (typically, the phone is charging at night).
This problems occurs sporadically, I'd estimate once a week. I did not find any correlation with the usage pattern, i.e. with apps I was executing.
This issue is very annoying, as I'm not available by phone for hours (I don't expect calls at night regularly, but it is still unacceptable due to emergency cases).
Did anybody notice the same problem?
Thanks very much for your info!
Update: I have a T-Mobile DE device updated to firmware revision 2250.09.12505.111 and radio version 5.50.09.18_22.24.50.09U, but the same problems occurred also with the stock versions.
Best regards;
eypostel
I had simular problems and sent mine back to orange, they told me that some handsets have problems and that mine was not the first to get these problems. since the replacement no problems at all. hope this helps.
Meanwhile, I had two consecutive unexpected nightly reboots...
So I'm actually considering sending the device back. :-(
have you guys tried to reset the device?

I’m having my Hermes now since January 2007. In the last months I was flashing a lot of different Roms and Radios, everything was okay until at about October or something like this.
In September 2007 I went to Egypt because of a business trip, I stayed there until end of February. When I left Austria, I had Edhaas SuperD-Lite and Radio 1.48.00 on my Hermes, both was running without any problems.
In Egypt I noticed that nobody from Austria was able to call me, I thought by myself this is because of some problems with the roaming.
When I came back to Austria end of February I was told from my friends that they couldn’t reach me always, very often they where connected to the mobile box. I noticed something similar, sometimes when I tried to make a phone call it was not possible. In all this cases my hermes showed me 100% net.
So I started to flash different Roms and Radios, I switched off HSDPA, I was setting the band from auto to GSM and so on. All this things were working for maybe one day, but that the problem started again. So I installed the officially HTC WM6 version including Radio and ExtRom without any software in addition, but again – the same. Finally I bought a prepaid sim card to test another sim, but still the same. My “old” sim card is working w/o problems in another phone.
Now I’m completely out of ideas what to do next (beside sending the phone to HTC).
Any ideas what else I could do?
Edit: I noticed now with my normal simcard in another phone again problems in sending a sms and making a phone call. I had to resend the sms 3 times before it worked, then I tried to make a phone call and it didn't work the first time. So maybe its my simcard too?
Hello,
I have a random/erratic problem with my SGSII reporting that the baseband is unknown and no IMEI being present.
It happens randomly through the night, or if the phone reboots itself, the signal icon changes to a circle with a line through it, and no network connectivity works (except for WiFi).
I've backed my \EFS up previously and restored that with no luck, re flashed my modem with no luck.
Usually the fix is to reboot the phone a few more times and eventually it comes back on.
I've got an app called 'network' which gives me various stats on the connectivity type etc (from my nexus one days) under 'Set preferred network type: I have an extra entry called 'Unknown' which gets selected by the phone, and changing this to one of the GSM variants doesn't have any effect.
Like I said, it's random and not much of a show stopper right now since I'm thinking it's a software problem. I don't want to RMA my handset just yet.
I have seen some other threads where people seem to have this permanently and there are no resolutions provided in the threads.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Kind Regards,
Chris.
I m relieved to know someone else also has this problem. Last Sunday my handset just hanged on lockscreen, so I pulled out battery, reinserted it and sim stopped detecting, so I tried couple of restarts, factory resets still nothing. So flashed firmware a couple of times still nothing. So when I checked if firmware was flashed correctly, the baseband was showing unknown and IMEI was completely blank. Handset is still in warranty so I don't want to take any chances, I am sending it in on Monday. Will keep you posted on what happens. Let me know if ur problem is solved.
Phone started regularly reporting that the SIM wasn't inserted so a quick phone call to O2 and a courier is coming to pick the handset up tomorrow.
Still under warranty so they should be able to fix/replace it.
Pain in the backside though to back up everything and then reinstalling it again when it comes back (either repaired, or a new/replacement one)
Right,
I got it back.
Apparently they identified it as a faulty SIM card slot. I was sceptical of this at first, but I persevered with it.
Surely enough, 1 day into using it, the same happened.
Back to the repair centre with photographic evidence of the problem.
Same happened to me a few night ago, removing the sim and re-inserting it fixed the problem for me.
I haven't seen it again yet.
I was on the stock firmware and insecure kernel.
me too... never been update or using any clockmod firmware..it just suddenly happen... any other way to fix this...
I'm also having the same problem for days now. My phone is full stock, never rooted it, never installed and unsecure kernel.
It randomly loses IMEI, Baseband and GSM signal. Sometimes it comes back after rebooting phone, but sometimes it seems to be permanent.
Hi,
I recently moved to Vodafone and ever since I am facing very frequent data issues. The data(3G) will stall for no apparent reason and will not come back most of the time and I have to restart phone to get it back or if lucky, toggle flight mode works. Now I had this issue a long time ago, but after I upgraded to 2.3.5(KI3) and along with disabling fast dormancy, I never faced this issue. But ever since I have landed on Vodafone, this is killing me.Vodafone folks have changed my SIM, but it does not seems to have improved anything.
I don't believe this can be generic issue with Vodafone as I haven't heard this from anyone here or outside, so just looking for some pointers if there is something missing from my end.
Thanks for your time.

Well, this gives me a comfort that on one else is saving this. But if you guys can share your experiance, it will help.
Thanks,
Vishal
I have an unlocked unrooted S3 on Vodafone UK. This issue has been happening for the last few days whereby i have full 3G/H+ connection, but absolutely no data is working. No email, no websites loading, no whatsapp, nothing. The issue goes away as soon as I restart my phone, but then it comes back after a few hours.
Has anyone experienced this, and if so, how have you fixed it?
Go back to your network/phone provider .
Or flash different modem .
jje
I am having this issue too. I may be wrong, but i realise this happens if i turn off my Wifi, the 3G will not want to connect to the 3G network.. Anyone else having such problem?
By the way mine is International version (Location: Singapore)
I'm having a similar problem where I have a good 3G/H/H+ connection but data seems to drop intermittently across all applications - I get the same sort of error message in browsers/facebook/twitter that you receive when you have no signal.
Anyone have anything similar and know of any fix?
I am not having such issue so far. I been updating my SGS3 using over-the-air update. I guess the MODEM has been updated as well.
Go to market and download "fast dormancy"(by gorkhanmoral) then disable it and reboot.
Check if your speed has improved,if it got worse then enable it again.
U need ROOT to use this tool.
I it didn't help, then flash a different modem
This is good modem
Cwm flashable

have you got any battery saving app like juice defender installed in your phone?
Is mobile data working at all? or is it constantly "uploading" but never "downloading" (up arrow lights but not down).
If what I just described is your issue then this is a network issue relating to android in general.
Basically your phone will be connected to two radio towers and gets confused as to which one it should use, rebooting or flight mode may help force it onto one tower or you may have to speak to your carriers "high network technical team" or whatever they are called for you to get them to force it onto one tower.
I had this issue on the HTC hero (a long time ago now) and it took 9 months for Orange UK to work out what was going on.

Congrats. Orange Luxembourg (my gf's network provider) still hasn't got a clue.. But they seem rather clueless about everything except writing invoices.
Flashing an Asian modem on her S2 made the issue far less prominent since they seem not to get confused by antenna ping-pong. (Tango Luxembourg, my carrier, has this issue too in the main city)
Hello XDA Community,
Last Saturday my P20 Lite updated overnight. Sunday morning, when I checked the phone, the sim card picture with the (!) inside was on the top of the screen along with the message "No Service".
It had to be something related with the update (I guessed). Restarted the phone and all good. But only for a while. 30 minutes later the issue came back again. And then again, and then again. The phone works fine for a few minutes (good signal, 4G comms perfect, calling and texting too) and then it's just like someone has removed the sim card. If I'm connected to Wi-Fi, everything works except for the calling/texting.
Cleaned the slot, cleaned the sim card, network settings restored and still the same.
The solution to have network again is to turn the flight mode on and off all the time.
It seems to me that this is a software glitch rather than hardware.
Anyone having the same problem?
Thank you guys.
Same issue
Hi,
I've got the same issue here. Update just before I went on holiday and now I get a signal for a little while then it goes to no service. When it's ok you can check signal quality no problems. Once it stops it just keeps going back to main options screen, looks like a software bug to me.
Any one have any suggestions?
Update
Hi,
I've been in touch with my provider and they gave advised the usual:
Check coverage is ok - yes
Check some works in another phone - yes
Factory reset - not tried yet.
Anyone else have the same issue or an idea?
Exactly the same issue with mine since the update. Are Huawei actually going to fix this or are they just staying quiet?
What a piece of ****. After 3 days trying everything and resetting to factory still the same. No patch available. Terrible Huawei service say they're working on it.
I just went out and bought another phone. Mine is just 3 months old. Any ideas? Or is it scrap?
Support
I messaged Huawei in Twitter and they asked me to DM them but I can't for some reason. They wanted IMEI number so I'm no further on.
I have found that if you put the phone in aeroplane mode and then re-enable WiFi it is usable (except for calls).
Can anyone else message Huawei in Twitter to see what response they come back with.
Having the same problem here. Emailed and tweeted Huawei but no reply. Also experiencing slow charging, fast battery run-down, and general performance issues since the update. Phone is just 3 weeks old, bought in GB but now being used in Australia. SIM worked fine in my old British bought phone. Can't afford a new phone has anyone heard anything?
Location services
Hi,
I found that I was able to use all services if I disabled location services.
Got a popup about network time but the phone is at least usable - as a phone too!
I'm on holiday at the moment so will chase up Huawei when I get back and let you all know how I get on.
Did anyone ever get a solution to this having the same problem abroad currently
Mine resolved itself, but then come the NEXT update exactly the same thing has happened. It's been about 2 weeks now and the phone is practically unusable with fast battery run-down and slow charging too. Huawei customer service is terrible and don't give me any solution beyond a factory reset which I've tried to no avail. I'm also overseas too having purchased the phone in the UK and am now using it in Australia.
Did you guys get the phones working again?
