Well if you work in Globe you will have all the correct APN settings to enter the network in your phone .
You have simply put a firmware in the phone that does not have a CSC for your area/network .Requires manual entry of network settings .

how do i input the settings? can u give me the correct csc, tnx
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

You need to contact your network for the settings .
Correct CSC will be what came with your original firmware .
jje

i already flash d correct firmware and csc but still same result, my globe sim card still not working, it says mobile network failed

You're talking network as in internet access or general receiption?
Sound to me as general receiption, APNs have nothing to do with that.
What GSM band is your provider using?
SGS2 is quadband IIRC, so GSM 900, 1800 and 1900 and some else should work, but you never know (might also be something with the modem SW, try finding a ROM for your provider to try)....

Hi, I got the same problem with my SGS2... I purchased it a coupla months ago and it was working fine until 2 days ago. I'm very confused why this is happening... does it mean I just get an original rom and everything would be fine? thanks...

Is it just internet or is it the whole reception?

globeuserph and ehe12:
Have you tried the SIM that doesn't work in a different phone? SIM cards can sometimes go bad.

Hi Ricey, it's the whole reception.
when I tried to make a phone call, it said "mobile network not available". can only dial emergency numbers.
I also notice that when I flash a new rom, always said something about cannot access multiCSC.

Sound like you may have flashed a modem that is not compatible with your network.

Virus?? ..android_secure.img

I got a problem:
I installed H1 modem a while ago and signal got worse and worse every day till now. Now it doesn't even find my home network at all. my old galaxy s2 finds it though. And when i restore a former backup which schould have a different modem within cwm says:
restoring data....android_secure.img not found. Skipping restore of android_secure.
Could this be a virus??
Greetz
No its not a virus, and a cwm backup doesn't backup your modem.
Flash a new one via Odin.

What do mean by that? Your home has different network?
If mobile network working fine outside your home, then is not your phone fault. Try contact your carrier.

Sorry with home network i meant my home carrier (like T- Mobile e.g.)
I tried that already with different modems which have been in use already. -> same Problem- phone finds differnent carrier networks but not my network.
hardwareproblem i can not imagine because it finds other networks. SIM card also works correct (i finds my network in other phones).
One thing that could be problem theoretically: I cut my Sim Card myself from mini sim to micro sim but till now i had no problems what makes me think it cant be my problem...
Ideas?

Often happens with cut Sims, they work to start with then stop, which network/country are you?

If you are using a 64kb SIM it tends to happen. Probably its aged and if you did cut it you might have as well damaged the SIM's core.
I'd suggest to get a replacement SIM from your carrier, preferably a Micro SIM and see if that helps.

[Q]Help, Data network isn't fully operational

Symptoms:
Wi-Fi works all fine, both 2g and 3g (EDGE, HSDPA and HSPA+) only partially working, let's say, some of my apps were able to work as they need internet, and some of them always report "can't connect to server " or something like that.
What I have done intent to solve this problem: fully wipe and flash ROM, I tried lots of them, all same results.
Flash different modem and radio, still same.
Conclusion: I was thinking could be problem of operator but I have ask some friends who uses same operator and same area, they don't have problem, I even flash the same ROM and radio exactly same as one of them who owns S3 as well, still no good...
Anything more I can do?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Usual is
Network ask.
Sim Card replace
Modem correct one for network
CSC again correct one for network .
jje
Also, check your APN settings are right and up to date for your network. Presume you have already reverted to fully stock to test?

2G Data issue

Hey Guys i am sorry to create this thread as i couldn't find the thread relating to 2G.
I just bought AT&T LGOG unlocked using in india and i have activated 2G data service and my network forceclose every few minuets. i am on stock 4.0.4.
this happens only when my data service is enabled.
This solution is only for Stock,
Solution Idea:
use secret menu 3845#*970#
Find the menu for changing the network setting to 2G or something like that i am really sorry i have forgotten that menu but you can play around am sure its not hard to find. as i am on custom rom i can directly change to 2G in settings where as in stock that is not possible.
If i find anything i will surely post it. i am sorry i hadn't posted the solution when i found it, never though anybody would have had it.
PS: If it helps any better, check this out.

Thanks,
Please close the thread i found the solution.

, any idea , from where do I choose the 2G only mode from there. There are lots of modem settings in there.
WCDMA has different modes.
Mine is Vodafone .
EDIT : I choose the GSM 900 band , and it seems the device has gone into EDGE (2.5) state now , but still data doesn't work.
I'll check with vodafone cc , and will see if there's a problem from their side.

Modem that will work with all SIM cards?

I unlocked my SGH-I717 by accessing the hidden menu via the Dialer. It works with my tmobile sim card fine. What I'm wondering is would it work with any SIM card with the TMOBILE ICS modem, or do I need to use a different modem? I'm planning on selling it on ebay and need to know, because I need to make sure that I can advertised it as unlocked and able to work with any SIM. I would greatly appreciate any helpful response.
You can tell the buyers that the phone is unlocked and they can flash their own modem if things don't work on their network.
There is no good answer to your question.

1-I am looking for a good modem, which baseband are you running?
2-I want to install AOKP 4.4.2 on wifey's phone but video issue had been a deal killer; I am not sure if I read somewhere that that is/was fixed with a patch or similar. Can you confirm if your video works ok? And if you have any other issue at all you have encountered with that ROM?

Thank you. Entering exactly as shown didn't do anything but *#*#2263#*#* did take me to a blank "Service Mode" screen. I'm assuming this is where I need to be?
Is there a generic code to input or do I still need to use one of the "unlock websites"?

I've noticed a slight signal loss too with every 4.4 ROM I've tried. They all seem to have the same video issue as well. @Polluti0n has a video patch, that works great for me on all the 4.4 roms, in the OP here:
