I have looked at all of the threads and here goes...
I can't make phone calls. When I do I get a friendly message saying, "connection cannot be made." It seems to me that there is a disconnect with my provider. The provider is Sunrise Switzerland. Thus I am suspecting that I can make a call, but because I am not officially logged into the network for calling it is not letting me make calls. I am making the assumption that if it was a ROM issue I would not get the pre-recorded message from Sunrise.
Here are the details on the phone:
It is a Sony Xperia with the latest update 2.1 baseband .54. It is a "branded" phone from Orange Switzerland, but completely unlocked. I checked on the branded by looking at the services numbers.
I then modded the phone, and the phone call problems began. I did wipe everything as per the regular instructions. I upgraded using xrecovery. The phone can connect to Sunrise, and per the services menu it states connected to Sunrise. I can use the Internet connection, thus surf, get email, etc. What I cannot do is make a phone call.
Model: X10i
Android version: 2.2.1
Kernel Version: 2.6.29
Build Number: FreeX10-beta4_zdzihu
When I originally started the device I was asked for a network code and dismissed that dialog. Anything to do with it? And if so how do I get it back?
I want to stress that I wiped the machine clean with factory reset, etc, etc...
Because I posted in the wrong forum I got one answer, and followed it.
Namely I installed the Wolfbreak's ROM for my baseband. That just made things worse. I could not even get on my network.
Interestingly I decided to fallback to my original ROM, and on that I cannot make phone calls, nor receive (due to not being on the network), or data does not work. If I restore back to the ROM that I used, namely the Free then data still works, but not calls.
Found the answer and it is bizarre...
Essentially what happened is that my installation of Xperia went correctly. The problem is that I have two sims. The way to use one sim or another was to not have the other phone on. Or at least that is how I was using it.
I phone Sunrise and I told them my phone is activated. He said, "no your other phone is on." I pointed out and he then said to activate my phone. I did as per his instructions and all went ok.
The funny thing is that this was a "bug" in their system that they patched. And the patch JUST happened to be the same day as when I upgraded my phone to the new ROM.
The tech support was nice and cracked up laughing...

Hey,
My problem:
Yesterday I flashed a few MIUI-ROMs, now I have neither a data connection, nor can I send or receive SMS. Also, calls are not possible. However, I can log in to the mobile network.
Kernel is reflashed, tried another ROM and already restored via SEUS.
Do not go on.
Can you help me?
I had this happen to me, my gsm card went bad cause the phone got hot when i loaded a kernal that was o/c, ATT swapped my sim for free, the funny part was that after I messed with the rom, I got no "faulty sim" or any alert that it was actually bad.
Hi Guys,
I am new on SG2. I'm using stock rom, ICS 4.0.3 and I found out that my phone number in Settings is "unknown".
I noticed this problem since I bought it on store but I didn't ask the store staff why this thing happen.
Can anyone give me an advice what's wrong on my phone? TIA. :fingers-crossed:
you didnt flash or root etc ?
can you receive calls and does it connect to your provider ?
I've NEVER had my phone number appear there since day one from the first stock, unrooted Gingerbread ROM out of the box. It's never really bothered me. I think it has more to do with the way your provider's SIM interacts with the device than anything else.

I just change my kernel version to speedmod but this problem happened since the day I bought my S2 on store.
Yes, I received calls, messages and signals from my provider.
What do you think is the problem?
phone number got stored on your SIM, if you didn't got one from your carrier, just flash cm9 and from dialer settings add your phone number. After that it will show on every Rom every phone, until you change your SIM.
Yep Atifsh is right. Either flash CM9, change it/add it (dialer/settings/additional settings/my phone number), then go back to whatever rom you were using if you want. Or....get an older dumb phone which has the ability to edit your phone number/save it on the sim; put sim in dumb phone, add/edit number, put sim back in SGS2. Profit.
Thanks guys. Can you give me a link to the best CM9 Rom I will use? TIA

Goodnight everyone, today I come to the forum to ask for a auxilho connoisseurs of Android
My case is the following, I have a LG OPTIMUS G2X P999DW, manufactures it comes with Android 2.2 if I'm not mistaken, can be upgraded to 2.3; Anyway, like a good consumer wanted something more, so I root on my phone and installed it the cyanogemmod 10 Jelly Beam, so far so quiet taking some bugs of its own ROM, everything was operating normally, all but calls, all calls that I realized were a strange noise on my phone as much in who called me so I went back on the internet and saw that I had to update my baseband (no idea what that is, but updated anyway) and miraculously returned my calls work perfectly, but with the update of the baseband another bug appeared ... APN my connection (or 3G) stopped working, my phone recognizes the network but does not connect Claro BR apn in it, and when I check the apns settings, there is nothing, and if I try to add a new, all normal functioning less the fact that it does not save the apn I create ... is frustrating .... can someone help me fix this little big?
Thank you in advance for your attention to read this topic monstrous and postej sin in the wrong area sorry but I can not find my model in the suggested list!
Today I tried to use an application to make an autoconfiguration of my APN and when the app will get the operator, the following message appears ... "SIM CARD NOT FOUND! PLEASE CHECK!", in other words, my phone is not recognizing my sim card, so I came a doubt ... After i update my baseband of the phone, i must unlock my phone again?
sorry for the mistakes in English, I used google translator
Hi
I've searched around and read a lot but couldn't find the answer to my problem.
Here is my issue.
When I dial a number, it tries to call then ends the call right away before it even rings.
Can't receive calls either.
Can't send sms, nor receive sms.
Additional info.
I have full signal and it says my carrier on the status bar
Imei is correct - same as back of phone
Phone is unlocked - checked status
Unlocked with Galaxsim unlock, paid version
used repair gsii by helroz, didn't work
apn is picked up by the phone
carrier sim applications menu shows but don't work
Went back to stock with mobile odin, all the way to gingerbread which I'm using right now.
Please advice on what to do, any help is appreciated.
Interesting; I've never heard of this particular problem before. The first thing I would try would be a different modem, because that's a very easy fix. Also, incorrect APN's could be a factor, even though you say you've already checked that. I would advise checking them again - slowly. Sometimes something as simple as an extra space (or lack thereof, in the case of the 'default,supl' portion of the APN) can cause them not to work correctly.
Good luck.
I've flashed different modems and that didn't work.
Caller ID in settings give error network or sim card problem it says.
Btw I'm trying with different by Sims and both work on other phones.
Apn is correct I double checked. It picked it up auto.
Let me if you think of something else.
Thanks.

Hey Guys,
Desperate lurker here saying First of all thanks for all the guides and everything that the devs and everyone that the community has done. I've search all of google and xda but i can't seem to figure out what's wrong with me Xperia Z2 .D6503
. T mobile carrier.
Basically since yesterday, I noticed that my phone couldn't receive or make any phone calls. but data internet, wifi internet and text messaging was working fine. Whenever people call me, i would just get a voicemail notice. At the time I was on the Marshmallow Existence rom. Ive done a lot of troubleshooting since then and still I can only make a call on GSM Mode.
Here's what i've done.
Wiped data and "reset" my phone on the Existence ROM - didn't work.
Wiped everything and flash Resurrection ROM - didn't work still.
Used someone else's sim card , couldn't receive calls either.
Use my sim card on a different phone - that one worked (SO IT'S NOT THE SIM CARD'S FAULT)
Placed back my sim card in the Z2 and reset flashed the stock rom from this page https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/stock-t3355768
but that didn't work either.
I've also manually put the Tmobile APN.
Basically calls only work when changing it into GSM mode. but when i put LTE/WCDMA/GSM. Calls made under LTE/WCDMA/GSM Won't even make a dialtone when I make a cal. It basically just ends after a few seconds
I'm starting to think it might be a hardware issue because no matter which ROM i put, no matter how many factory resets and data wipes i've done. I can only make calls on GSM Mode.
Does anyone have any other ideas or should I just cry and buy a new phone.?
I suggest you to flash your phone with flashtool v0.9.18.6 and flash 291 ftf and wipe all
@whatsadophone
Have you try resetting APN for your SIM card when on your device?
thanks to everyone who tried to help. I don't know what happened. but after i tried putting the sim back in the Z2 to check my signals using Signal Spy, It suddenly can use LTE again. Only problem is since i installed that stock ROM, I lost my recovery mode and can't get it back. But i wont push my luck and just keep it like it is till i buy a new phone.
