Hello everyone,
Last night we updated an s2 to the original ics, using the ota.all went well during the presidure, but later we found out that it can't receive calls, or make any calls, and it cannot register to the network.The Sim is greek, and the phone was never flashed with room in the past, everything was original from Samsung.
Amy ideas?
But it does ask for pin code and reads the sim card?

No pin, doesn't ask for it.nor locs the screen.
I looked in apn and there is nothing there.
So it doesn't recognize sim card?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I guess not.
But we have replaced it with a brand new card,same number and network.
And is the new card working?

Have you tried to input a new APN? You can get the specific APN for your carrier with an internet search or a phone call to your carrier.
The new is not working either.i tried the apns ,i have the same carrier.But it is not able to save them.
The phone is working fine when i put my own sim in it.
Go to about phone and see if your imei is empty. If it is empty then your efs got corrupt and I guess ypu don't have backup of it. If you do have a backup then restore it. Otherwise I hope you still have warranty left as your going to need it.

Imei is there,checked it with both cards
So, after searching alot,i have found out, that if i disable pin it all works fine.But the screen doesn't lock, and i can't use pin.As soon as i enable pin again then no more calls.
Any ideas?

What do you mean by that?
Still haven't found a way around it.The phone doesn't register in cell network when the pin is enabled and lock screen, or pattern do not work no matter what i do.
How about new modem?

Hey guys.
Got a few problems with my GS2 I don't know what has caused it, was working fine checked my voicemail and then it stopped working?
on my pull down notification bar i have "emergency calls only", If i pull out my Sim the phone knows there is no Sim in there, and if i put it back in i can copy all my contacts from Sim card to phone so the card reader is fine.
Even though it says Emergency Calls only, if i dial 911/999 It says "Number is out of service"?
If i turn on the Internet (3G) My Internet will turn on but i will not get any 3G icon along the top of the bar?.
I'm thinking of re-installing the latest Android 2.3.5? but i have no idea of what i need
If people could help me out! i would be very great full!
Under Settings --> About phone --> Status, is your correct IMEI shown?

Yeah can see all that
Android - 2.3.5
Baseband - i9100XXKI4
Kernal - 2.6.35.7-i9100XWKJ1-CL647431 - Is this the right one? for that baseband? I'm not sure if i flashed the kernal correctly?
I flashed the kernal through ODIN in the PDA Section? is that correct?
Build Number - GINGERBREAD.XWKJ1
That's correct.. How about checking your sim if you put it right.. Alot of people sometimes put the sim in the wrong decision or fliped it upside down and didn't realized it.. It happened to me once

Because it will not connect to any other network other than to which it is locked..

Hmm.. that should have definitely worked. Did you press the send button/call button?
Another way you can check is by putting another sim card in and if its locked it will tell you.

It worked before, last few updates it isnt working. Maybe its something to do with how Samsung stops Voodoo sim unlock from working?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Never used voodoo sim unlock and its not working for me either. Though the ROM I'm on has a tab to check easily but all the same... the dialer code isn't working
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I dont have to use voodoo sim unlock because i bought mine full price from Samsung,unbranded but i would still like to be able to use dialer codes... Basically their latest updates reverse the unlock process by resetting the hex in the NV_data.bin every hour :/ but mine is permanently unlocked by Samsung! :happy:

try installing the omega 12 rom, as it has sim unlocking built in
The *#7465625# does not work on the Galaxy S3 anymore. That was the case for me and for everyone reporting here. I was able to get the same screen ans figure out my S3 was locked by using the app "SGS Secret Codes", which is available on the Play Store.
Does anyone know a way of figuring out which particular network the device is locked to? I just bought an S3 which was supposed to be unclocked bu it is not, and to unlock it I need to know which carrier it is locked to.
Installed Omega v27 and all was great and then going through security I managed to SIM lock it by mistake...It asked for a pin code which I entered then ask for a PUK code.....Any ideas as ive got 9 attempts left...Idiot :'(
Ask your network operator for it. Give them a call or go to their office.

Did you back up your efs? Check your imei and see if it is correct. Try flashing to a stock through Odin.

Yes I have the correct IMEI.
I do not know the exact stock rom. Could I know it by the IMEI? The phone from SFR France.

Any stock rom should do. And also try to use another SIM card. Your phone may also be network locked. Download galaxsim from play store and check the lock status.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I checked with *#7465625# and it says network lock off. all off.
Does it mean the phone is unlocked. In fact, I tried several stock roms no help. last one is I9300XXBLG6.
Yeah your phone is unlocked. Remove your sd card if you have one. Check your mobile network settings. Different network sims or different Sims but the same network?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I did what you told me. Nothing new. When I click on Setting/Mobile Network/Network operators/Search network, (Searching) flashes for moment and stops with nothing.
Do you have a serial number when u check settings?

Where did you get the phone from?
Samsung Service center is your only option, take the phone box and proof of purchase if you have it.
But run triangle away and go back to the stock rom that you got with the phone

I don't know if you tried to pull out the simcard and clean the contacts. This was a common issue on the HTC Desire HD and this little fix worked fine.

Updated to Jelly Bean??
if yes go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601
Is the phone new? Has it ever worked for you? Have you considered the fact that it could be network locked(SIM locked)?
My phone ALWAYS shows "Not registered on Network" when I'm at home, that's because signal is terrible since I updated to JB (modem related).
Have you tried different SIMs from different networks? Have you tried your current SIM in a different phone?
[the phone is from 29 june..always worked bit one day data stopped working.. i got a HTC sensation and the SIM works fine in that phone/SIZE]

Ok,
so here comes the question my girlfriend always asks me :laugh:
"What did you do between it working, and it no longer working?"
You say data doesn't work, does that mean you can make phone calls?
I didnt do anything it just stopped working and i cant do phone calls...its like using an iPod.. maybe someone blocked my imei?could it be possible?

Yes, it's entirely possible, but you'll need to check with your provider. There is no way of checking from the device itself if the IMEI has been blocked.
Did you buy the phone new?
You could, potentially, be extremely unlucky and someone blocked the wrong IMEI code when attempting to block their own.
Ye it was new..there is no way to make it work then?

Well, if it really has been blocked, you should get in touch with your provider, and potentially have to go through some lengthy process of proving to them you legitimately own the device and didn't block it yourself. It's unlikely though, as I've never heard of a device being removed from the block list before.
Your other option is to leave the country, it will work in another country
Failing that, return it to Samsung telling them it just stopping working, you did nothing, and insist they replace it.
Probably wrong Kernel, happened often to me on my old sensation

What network are you on? I had to go to t mobile web site to get configuration settings sent to phone. All was then ok. You are not providing enough information, Network, whether phone had ever worked, if it has been modified in any way etc.etc.
People here will help you but you really must give as much relevant information as possible
