EDIT: Just tried a 3 sim card and it worked so I will get another T-Mobile Sim to see if the problem is a didgy sim card...strage as the sim works when I put it in a micro sim to sim adapter in another phone!?
Im in the UK, with T-Mobile and randomly cant send/recieve calls or texts
I called T-Mobile and they refreshed the network settings but I still cant call...they said it wasnt anything to do with network coverage as it was displaying i had signal, but in call settings > additional settings or call forwarding > voice call:
it says "Network or Sim error"
my sim works in another phone too so its not a dodgy sim...so it is 100% down to the phone that I cannot call or recieve calls or texts so not just call settings being messed up, problem surfaced 2 hours after flashing Foxhound 0.3 (but in those 2 hour calls/texts were working)
I have done hard reset, and facory reset, restored a backup...also flashed stock XXLF2, and also LF8 but all with no luck
My IMEI number is displayed in about phone, it is displaying full signal, and T-Mobile in the dropdown menu and im able to use my mobile data from T-Mobile so what is wrong, and how can I fix this?
Would be forever grateful to whoever can help me out...even if your not sure any ideas are welcome as my £500 phone is as good as bricked to me!
I will take it into T-Mobile to see if they will replace the handset under warranty but how do I go about making it seem it hasnt been rooted or flashed custom ROM, I know I need Triangle away but what order etc?
Thanks allot

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.
I have a Samsung S3 GT 19300.
Purchased in Hong Kong. Using China Unicom, and I have a monthly plan, fully paid up.
It is stock - I have not rooted it.
Suddenly, about 3 days ago, I started having problems with it connecting to the network. I ignored this issues because I was on vacation, and roaming ... so I thought it was due to the roaming.
I'm back home now, and I can not make any calls.
When I call out, the phone:
- sometimes doesn't connect to the network - the call doesn't go through at all
- sometimes dials the other end, but there is no sound between the two phones. When that happens, the phone connection lasts about 15 seconds, and then the Samsung phone shows the network as not available, with the circle with a slash through it, and says "Mobile
network not available".
I've rebooted many times.
I've took out the SIM card, and put it back in.
I've checked the firmware - and the firmware is current.
I've disabled JuiceDefender Ultimate
Strangely, I CAN send data thru the network, but can not receive or make calls.
I also found out that WHILE I CAN SEND / RECEIVE data (internet), FourSquare can not identify where I am...
Suggestions?
actually it seems like a problem with your network\sim card.
i'd try first to ask other users under the same network if they experience problem and replace the sim card
Backup Data factory reset ..
Try with a different sim card are the usual first steps .

I forgot to update my post.
I used a friend's SIM - which is on the same network (China Unicom) as my SIM card is ...
I had the exact same problems.
One of my friends tells me I should re-install a ROM ... What do you think?
QUESTIONS:
Should I try to root the phone?
I ask because (a) it's not yet
(b) I want to back it up, and understand Titanium Backup to be the best ... but that needs to be rooted.
FINALLY - how woulld you back it up? I hate losing data.
I have a huge DROPBOX account ... but don't see a great way to use that to back it up.
Thanks.
i've a similar problem but with sms..

If it's within guarantee then just take it back to the store. Sounds defective and rooting would void your warranty on a faulty device. You'd probably find that rooting and a custom rom would not help anyways.
My $0.02 is take it back to the store, but back up your setting to Samsung drive thing. It backs up message too.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Tried some sims in phone (first time put one in after using for week or so). The S2 I got of ebay,
did some googling and I think I may have a stolen phone, as am I right that message I put in title means carrier blocked?
Note I am not getting network locked messages, it just says emergency calls only and the status under settings - about says out of service.
--edit--
confirm works when I restored my nandroid backup of rom that came with phone.
So seems flashing custom roms can cause this problem, I didnt change the baseband tho so somethign else changed to break it.
just burnt this rom, everything works but I can't make phone calls, tried to swich to another sim and it works.
Gonna contact my cellular company, does anyone have any idea how do I recognize the problem?
Data works,incoming calls works... it's weird for me and hard to explain, the main problem is they don't support custom roms and I don't wanna fall into this...
thank you!
forgot to mension
I can send SMS and receive, did factory reset, wipe cache...
found my network on the settings and chose it but no outgoing calls, tried another apps for dialing ...
the other sim is on a different same network but with the same frequencies (UMTS 850,2100) and works!
another thing that I thought, maybe it's not the issue but the SIM that doesn't work is not personal but my work cellular SIM, it worked on the same machine with the previous version , which was 4.2.2 custom but not this one, and I like this one because it's faster.
thank you
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.
