She called t mobile and they said the previous owner had a unpaid bill so they blocked the imei until the bill was paid off . did you call t mobile and asked

yeah when i was talking to them i told them all about the problem and that i tried all the soft resets hard resets etc. and they looked at the phone imei and if i wanted to get it replaced by tmobile i'd need to ask the person i bought it from to transfer the insurances but i didn't save his number. so they said the only other option i had was to call samsung, and they did like a factory reset and it still didn't work.
i got ya just trying to help i hope you get it worked out and everything

ODIN back to stock ROM. Back up your apps using Titanium Backup, and copy that folder to your computer.
That way, when you get a new phone, you can have all the apps.
Or use ROM Manager, back up, get those files to your computer, and flash back to Stock ROM.
but idk for sure. Just trying to help.
Today suddenly my phone say "no sim card" and is not detecting any sim card.
I tried to factory reset phone but it did not helP.
Pls help
Did you even try getting a new sim card

I get this sometimes if my phone gets too hot for some reason. If I power off the phone and give it a chance to cool down, it works when I turn it back on.

warranty. If you've done nothing to the phone at the time it broke, changing sim card, and cleaning the contact points do nothing.
Shes broke.
I spoke with ATT warranty center and they are saying if your phone is not able to read sim card it's not covered by warranty.
Not sure what to do now.

Yes and I didn't see whether he had gotten a new SIM card or not. Now that I know he has, I suggest he get someone else on the phone or try to go into a store and have them verify it's the device.

I tried the old/new sim in other phones and it works.
So I assume it's a issue with the phone..

The fact that it is a H/W defect on the phone. at&t should cover it. Thats bull**** if they dont. at&t would send you a new phone, and when you get that one you'd send your broke one in. samsung your out a phone for longer.
I'd be calling a manager at customer support in the warranty section. but Im an asshole, and if i pay good money for something, I tend to get my way when a device has issues that are not my doing.
Good luck man.

Hi,
I searched and couldn't find anything like this. I just purchased an unlocked amaze. I put my sim in turned it on and it won't connect to the network. I tried going into settings>mobile network>network operators>search networks> at this point it finds both t-mobile's and at&t's networks when I click on t-mobile it says registering on t-mobile and then after a while says your sim does not allow a connection to this network. I spent all morning with someone in a t-mobile store he gave me a new sim but when that didn't work had no idea what to do.
Thanks for any help!
Your phone is blacklisted. Whoever sold it to you reported it lost or stolen.

How do you know that?
That's basically common knowledge. Plus Hasoon unlocks phones and is a recognized developer and contributor to the community.
If you wanna prove Hasoon's theory, simply put an AT&T SIM in, if it detects and works fine, well you have your answer.

So i bought a samsung galaxy note off a guy on craigslist about 3-4 weeks ago and today i noticed i didnt recieve any calls or texts from anyone, so i checked my phone and could get a signal at all, so i reset the phone to factory using kies and now it says, Phone Not Allowed MM#6 and i cant connect to any network
someone please help and tell me what i can possibly do to solve this issue
I did a little research and it could be a few things... Either you've gave the carrier the wrong IME number or the phone was reported lost or stolen by the original customer... I would call the carrier the phone is for and ask them. Also if the original owner hasn't paid his phone bill the carrier can lock the ime from being used... I've heard a lot of people buying phones on Craigslist like that...

thank you sooo much for your reply but i called AT&T and T-Mobile and they sent me to the stolen phone dept and they say the phone is not blacklisted or blocked in any manor so now i gotta find out what to do because this doesn't make sense
I have reset the phone to factory state = no fix
tried a different tmobile sim = no fix
tried calling att to see if blocked = not blacklisted so no fix
called T-Mobile to see if blocked = not blacklisted so no fix
tried to install custom rom = no fix
tried to restore phone thru kies = no fix
tried my sim in my GF's phone = my sim works perfect
im out of ideas and idk what to do!

so it's an AT&T note and you're using it on Tmobile right? have you tried an AT&T sim? If you don't have one available to you, I think you can go into an AT&T store and ask them if they can do a quick check for you. Be sweet, apologetic for using their time, maybe send your gf in to flirt with them a little they'll more than likely give you a hand.

not a stupid question, i did not say if it was unlocked or not
but yes it is, i received the unlock code directly from ATT so im not sure on how to fix this, if the ATT sim works then i will just sell it as an att phone
What modem is showing in the phone ? (needs blaze modem for TMO, if it's an ATT device)
And are your APN settings correct ? (needs the TMO apn's)
Two nails in the coffin for service if not correct.....
just brainstorming....g
And sometimes the network around you has a brain-fart. Sometimes those problems go away within a day.
Everything seems fine I restored it to stock thru kies, but I went to att and tried a live sim and it worked like I should its for some reason only T-Mobile Sims that don't work ugh!

Unlock is permanent. Getting t- mobile to work on the at&t version is hit-or-miss.
Its just weird that I had this phone working for over a month now and no problems what so ever till now, and its only T-Mobile Sims that are locked out

Hello everybody, this is my first post although ive been here for some time.great forum. I am sorry if this is in the wrong section but i have looked every where and cant find anything to what im going thru? I recently traded my galaxy s3 for a note 2 on verizon that was flashed to tmobile and then reflashed to verizon. Everything works perfect (i am even typing this from the gn2) except this phone absolutely will not activate on verizon network. I spent 3 hours in a verizon store and also on the phone while in the store with a verizon tech, he tried everyrhing even multiple sim cards and told me that there were now too many orders aginst the phone and that it should clear up by morning. I did what they said and tried again in the morning and it still wont activate im afraid i just traded for a junk phone but samsung told me they can reflash it if i send it to them but that will be a week or more without a phone, is there anybody that can help me or at least point me in the roght direction? Thanks alot guys!

Hi, yeah if i put the sim card in it just keeps trying to activate, it will even make a call to verizon and youll hear the voice say "please wait while your phone is activated" then makes a beep noise and hangs up. I can only use this over wifi no verizon network, no 4g or voice. My network says unknown in settings also. Activation just repeats itself until it finally gives me the mwssage "were sorry we are having trouble activating your phone please call*********** from a differwnt phone. Thanks

Okay just checking the problem. First, there shouldn't be any flashing to go to tmoble just putting in a sim. Si to make sure you are truly stock Verizon, follow section 1b here using the official download.

Also check in your phone status to make sure your imei is still there and correct. If not

This is sounding more like a network problem then phone. Try this may seem weird, but unlock and flash a couple ROMS. I've seen people say that they had a similar problem and it went away after a flash. He specifically flashed AOKP
I would also re flash the modem specifically

Ive done that the tier 2 tech finally just called samsung and got them to tell me they will repair it since it is still under the 1 year warrwnry but I have to send it to them, im just afraid they may find out that the fella I got it from flashed it to another providor (thats what he told me anyway and had to flash back to verizon) and then tell me to pay alot of money, I do have ins from verizon on it but they dont seem to wanna go thru that since I got it from another person. Also 99.00 is cheaper than what samsung would charge I would think?
