Hello!
My brother recently unlocked his bootloader and installed CM7.
But some basic functions dont work now.
For example he cant access any internet connection except via Wifi. The mobile surf is totally dead.
Also the camera flashlight isnt working. Ive read someone else that had this problem.
Also hes PIN-lock isnt working. Even if its active the phone will boot up as normal withoput asking for the PIN. Also he cant change the PIN cause it says its the wrong PIN even if hes sure its the right PIN hes entering.
Anyone got any ideas on what is wrong?
We tried factory reset and flash it all again but the same problems is still there.
I myself is only trying to help him but was not succesfull. I use HTC Sensation and its not the same procedures with it.
I think cyanogenmod is too premature for regular use in new xperia devices. which model does ur brother have?

hey
i searched the site for this problem, and found this error with a few other phones, but not sure if it will have the same effect on my x10.. and at this time of night, im tired of searching,
i tried to install one of Trip's MIUI roms, the TripNRaVer v0.2.4, it said all was working except camera. I installed it with xRecovery, as normal, and when i tried to activate Wifi it just said error.. and when it eventually turned on it said it was unable to scan for networks.
i tried wiping the cache's, reinstalling it, and the same method with Freex10, B3, but it still isnt working...
does anybody know how to fix this problem?
Hmm, it seems to havefixed itself, im not quite sure how but it has.. still if anybody knows the cause of this i would appreciate it
Here is what happend:
So this is my sisters phone and Im trying to fix it for her. The phone was locked when our little sister failed to open it too many times (my sister had the graphical lock enabled). My sister then took it to a phone store which managed to fix the lock (updating it from 1.6 to 2.1) but in the same process they somehow managed to make the phone block calls and text. They told her that it had "been blocked"..?
She after that she cant send or receive texts, cant make or receive calls but she can surf via 3G.
What is wrong?
Here is what I've tried:
I'm a big andriod noob since Im a iphone user but I can use google and I've jailbreaked/unlocked iphones many times.
So I've tried both to re-flash (with flash tool) the phone and to restore it with SEUS. None worked. First after using the Flash tool the phone got stucked in a boot-loop. At this points I tried SEUS but it would just get stuck and then tell me that the restore had failed. At last I managed to get back into a working phone when I went down to 1.6 using ROOT_F3V3 (I dont know if I did the whole flash procedure right but right but when it was done the phone started fine but the text and call issues persisted). So then I tried SEUS again and this time it worked so now I got a fully updated and restored phone. BUT STILL: it cant text, make or receive calls. Is there any next step? Any method which I haven't tried yet? I stumbeled upon something called xRecovery. Could that help me? Or is the phone pretty much bricked...
Please help me

Try it with a different sim card to make sure that it's not something related to the mobile account.

Hello people, I have a rather peculiar issue with my SII
I have had this issue for some time now and really doesnt bother me that much, its just annoying. And its just now that I have bothered writing a post about it.
If Ive run out of battery, I plug my phone into the charger, turn it on while its charging, I get no service, not prompted to input PIN and get the Uknown IMEI\baseband version. But if I let it charge a couple of minutes, unplug the charger and turn it on, everything works fine. Whats going on here?
I think this problem occured after installing one of bmarko's MIUI roms. I have since full wiped and restored stock rom. Upgraded two new official samsung roms as they have been released, currently running XWKI8 unrooted completely stock and the issue still persist.
I have searched around and there are similar cases out there but not really any clear solutions. Theres even a post over at cyanogenmods forum site, but no replies.
As said earlier its not really a big issue for me, not expecting a immediate solution but I would really like to understand the problem if someone has the information since I dont have the technical competence to understand it myself. I obviously havent corrupted or lost anything in my efs folder since its working without the charger, or? Could there be remains of a bug from another rom still in the system causing this?
Any replies would be appreciated, thanks.
Same Problem
Hey FlipTrick,
I got exactly the same problem. Dont remember how it happened exactly, but do remember I didn't do anything exotic. Can't display my IMEI, unknown baseband version and no prompt for my PIN.
I Tried several things:
- Reflashed the advised codeworx kernel using odin.
- ReInstalled CM 7.1 and tried nightly version.
- Reflashed different RADIO ROMS from XDA (goo.gl/TjoaM)
Nothing worked. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Or know what I could try next?
Greetings,
Xianduras
I had this problem once when I used a jig to reset the flash counter. Given the modem (and the IMEI) wasn't showing up in the phone details, I reflashed the modem which fixed it.
Occasionally after a reboot my modem/IMEI details take around 20-30 seconds to appear, but they've never not turned up/left me without service apart from that one occasion.
problem gone?!
Problem seems to be gone, noticed it after flashing Hydrog3n rom. Cant say if thats the solution though, havent tested it for awhile and i've flashed alot of roms
My fingerprint scanner stoped working after updating my phone 2.3.4.
System version: 4.5.91. MB860.ATT.en.US
Baseband: N_01.77.40P
I'm not an AT&T user I'm using Orange Romania, my device is unlocked.
I tried to clear my Fingerprint sensor from Storage Clear Data... At first it worked but i couldn't make my first scan to defyine my fingerptints... I got the error with to short swipe or something like that, and afer i tried several times it stopped scanning. Now when i swipe my fingerprint it doesen't do anything. I had read all the threads and it seems like i found a solution on http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/group.php?do=discuss&group=&discussionid=1252 but i don't understand what is CWM4 and i can't find any information.
Can you tell me what is CWM4 and if i don't already have it where i could find it and what to do with it?

CWM stand for clockwork mod its what you use for custom roms etc
Sent from Atrix 4g Neutrino 2.6 1.3ghz faux kernel
Clockwork
I've read that thread and NOOB Guide or some thread for Noob's, ment to explain somethings, but I still don't know how to enter in CWM ... and i don't know if that mod it's instaled on my phone. If i need to install please tell me how.
CWM
I believe you're going to need to root your device and unlock your bootloader before you start dealing with custom recoveries (CWM is one - it stands for ClockWorkMod recovery). Typically you enter recovery mode on an Atrix by holding volume-down while the phone turns on, and then pressing volume-up to cycle through the white text that appears on the top of the screen. The power button then enters recovery mode.
Really, you've got a bit of searching and reading to do if this is the path you're going to take to fix your device. Probably 2-4 hours if you're starting from scratch and learning as you go.
It is worth it... when you're done, not only will your FP be fixed, but you'll be able to leave that awful stock ROM for something faster, more capable, more elegant.
As i said on my first post my device works on Orange Romania, when the first owner bought it had AT&T and when i reboot in the top left corner it says UNLOCKED. The first owner said that he needed to reinstal the phone's operating system that's why i'm curios how can i check if my phone has a ROOT because i belive that it's UNLOCKED?

I would suggest for this to reboot your phone and as soon as it boots up go to fingerprint scanner and set ur fingerprint. This has worked for me for quite a few times.

I had same issue. I did several reboot but not worked. Finally, I cleaned the finger print sensor with some volatile liquid (like after shave or nail polish remover) after switching off my cell phone and it worked like as before. It might be helpful for others with same difficulty.
Thanks
Hi,
so i found this phone when i was on holiday (someone left/forgot it on the beach), so after a while i replaced it with my old phone, since it is working pretty good. But i have a problem... i can't seem to connect to mobile network, i can call and send sms normally. It's weird because it doesn't say anything, it looks like everything is working normal. And i had the same problem on my sgs1, but after i rooted it and installed a custom rom mobile network started working.
Now i need help. Can someone help me fix this problem or tell me how to root this phone, because i tried a few different root programs but none seem to work and i'm really frustrated.
Thanks

Can you enable usb debugging and try to boot into your bootloader and see if fastboot works in any kind of way. If you get fastboot working, you'll eventually get root.
