Can't place any calls or recieve sms anymore - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
My phone is running
Android v. 4.0.4
I9300XXLH1
Everything is stock, i haven't changed anything.
I recieved an update this morning, after restart i couldn't either recieve or make any calls or sms at all at first.
I then removed the battery and waited for approx. 10min, when i turned on my phone i recieved one sms before the phone stopped working.
When i press the callbutton it turns orange without even trying to call out.
Internet works just fine.
Im thinking it has to be software related since i actually could recieve one sms. Does anyone know why the phone is acting like this?
Edit:
Whenever i turn off/on the phone i can call and send sms for a short while.

After a conversation with my carrier it turns out it was something on their end. They rebooted my simcard and after that everything works fine.

[Q] Orange uk sms problems??

I cannot send text messages from my phone, it comes up as failed as soon as i tap send, it happened on froyd, so i went to cronos, it happened on cronos, so i went to 2.1 sensehero, still didnt work, so I bit the bullet and unrooted using the 2.73.61.66 ruu, didnt work, got the ota update to 2.1, still doesn't work, anybody else having this problem?, is there a fix?, as i can recive texts, make and recive calls, us mobile data fine, its just outgoing texts, its kinda annoying notbeing able to send texts
Have you contacted orange? (the obvious people to contact for this issue...)
I also get this problem on T-Mobile, although I only started to happen since updating to 2.1 ROMS. I've tried different 2.1 ROMs and different radios but the problem is still there. Was never an issue on 1.5.
My texts do eventually send though, they just fail the 1st time I try and then the phone automatically tries again. 2nd attempt usually works as I have delivery reports turned on to check.
A friend also has this problem with his Hero, although he is running official 2.1 update straight from T-Mobile.
Maybe it's just something HTC forgot to fix / didn't notice was a problem in their 2.1 Hero update... like the bug where you can't hide sim contacts in the phonebook (but you can in contacts).
Open up your Messages application. Press Menu -> Settings.
Click on "Service Center" - it should then say +447973100973. If it doesn't, type it in and press okay.
Your messages should then send !
i agree with Alex here as that is the most obvious one, if that doesn't work then contact orange to make sure there are no other issues...
thanks guys, i did as alex suggested, and all was perfecly fine,
thanks so much!

Seems like hardware issue. Send for repairs.

Can't make calls

Hey all so today I tried to make a phone call but after I dial the # and press call after like 3 seconds it goes straight to call ended. I can send texts and receive them and also use the data. Also I've had this phone for 4months now and never experienced this issue any ideas? I also haven't downloaded/installed anything recently

Try to use the SIM card with another phone.
Just to check, if it is a problem with the SIM card / your carrier or phone-related.
And why do you have to dial a "#"?
Are there no phone numbers without this symbol/sign just to make a test call?
Maybe it is just an issue to transfer the "#" from your phone => mobile provider => ...?!

Not possible to make calls, sms or Data-Connection

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.

phone keeps locking up

A week ago my phone started acting weird by not being able to unlock the screen, I would have to power off and start up again. Then I could not receive texts and called att who said he would reregister my phone and then I would get all my texts. That worked but my phone is still getting locked up sometimes when I try to make a call it will turn black and do nothing. And the screen will not unlock other times. I am have to shut it down and reboot almost every day. Any Ideas how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Have you installed/flashed anything lately?
Perhaps make a complete backup of your phone logs and SMS, then do a wipe/factory reset. Then install your apps from the market, and restore SMS and call logs.
