Data stopped working on stock

Hi, my friend has a problem, recently his galaxy s2 phone has developed a fault whereby data has stopped working. The green data sending arrow blinks, but orange data receiving hardly ever blinks, webpages/apps etc timeout with errors.
He was running stock gingerbread so upgraded to stock ics (no mods not even root) and did factory reset, and but continue with exact same problem.
Have tried different Sim card (same provider) fault is still there.
Tried different provider sim, works fine (H+)
If I force to plain 3g not hspa data mostly works.
I think my provider may be rolling out an hspa upgrade from 7 to 21mbps. They tell me they use this same galaxy s2 phone with no problems.
I am really stuck so hoping someone on xda might have some advice on what to try or where to turn.

try getting the APN settings from your service provider and use it.

Have had apn settings sent to my phone by provider and have entered them manually. No difference. It's not as simple as the APN unfortunately.
Remember phone was working - one day data just stopped.

Third check sim card /try another sim
Fourth return to service centre .

"Emergency Calls Only" with no reason

Hi,
I get a GS3 with LFB stock, kernel stock etc.. Nothing flashed or changed on.
It's not really often, but it's like one time by week, i'm suddently on "Emergency Calls only" although i see the signal bars. I have to switch on and off the "Airplaine" mode for get back the name of my Carrier instead of "Emergency Calls Only".
Somebody can help me to find an origin ?
Thanks

First check your apn settings with your carrier, and if they are ok,, try flashing a different modern

APN settings are for the internet connectivity. They have nothing to do with making calls. Deleter all your apns. You will still be able to make calls.
hi. I came here and was about to post the same question. I am having the exact same problem as the op. every now and then the phone loses cell network connection and says emergency calls only. I simply activate flight mode then deactivate it and voila.....it's back to normal.
can be annoying when you are expecting an important call and realize your phone is not even connected to the network.
I am on a stock Rom and only rooted.

Yup, my bad, half asleep! Modem issue at a guess, or possibly SIM issue if it is a cut one

I'm getting same problem... I reset miss's phone last night (ALL back to factory settings) but i booted into the phone 1st and it was great on 02 no problem, then restored it from her backup, when i rebooted and put in all the info the phone asks for i noticed it says 'emergency calls only' i been messing with the APN settings but nothing, so i decided to my sim into it (THREE Network) and it comes up fine? What could be the problem? Could it be the modem setting? would putting a diff firmware onto this help? any ibfo will be great so i can carry on with this tonight.

Read post above yours and check correct Mobile Network settings .
If wrong IMEI check with network its not blocked and restore your backed up EFS folder .
Modem has no user settings .
Possible faulty sim also .

Not Registered on Network

Woke up this morning with everything working. Got out of bed and place my phone on my desk and turned on my computer. I then looked back at my phone to see i had not service. Confused, i restarted my phone to see if that worked and it didnt. I tried another sim and it didnt work either. i then put both of the sims in a iphone and it worked there. I restored the phone to stock and 2 other roms and it still isnt working. The weird part is when on stock i get signal bars even when their is no sim. When i try to dial out i get "Not Registered on Network"
Any help is great help
Wrong section, ask in the general or Q&A.

Have you checked your Settings? Still got IMEI? ([Settings] [About Phone] [Status]) Phone connected to correct Network Operator? Access Point Names has correct data in it? [Settings] [More Settings] [Mobile Neworks]
Thanks for the responses. I had a rom running on it for a little bit over a week and didnt make any changes since. I also do have an Imei and an apn

It doesnt even show my network operator, thats the weird part it only shows rogers and when i put a sim in for fido (Rogers>Fido) i got service but no h+ even with the correct apn i only got edge
My Network operator doesn't show as a normal either - I do a Search and get (after a wait) Telstra, Optus and Voda - choose Telstra and it pops up a 'Registered on Network' msg.

yeah when i search i only get rogers???? This is the single most awkward thing ive ever seen
EDITTZ Found the problem. The phone switched itself to only look for one band not all. +_+ dont know how it got their and how it pertained through all the wipes but got it working DDDDDDDD
i had the same very exact problem..and yes when its in auto mode it only detects gsm signal so the data is slow signal is E.
i usually use the wcdma only option so that the phone on searches for 3g h and h+ but now when i select that option it only gives me
not registered on network..and no data signal at all.. and also the weird thing is that there is a signal bar on it plus when i scan for
network it searches the other two carrier brand on our country not the sims own carrier. help anyone

Hey xTristinx, glad you got your phone working.
I have the same problem on my Galaxy S, my SIM wouldn't register a network on it but it worked on a different phone. My Galaxy S still gets a signal but always says "out of service". I think this might be a problem because my friend used his SIM card in my phone and it f***** up the bands. Could you give me any suggestions on how you fixed your problem?
Thank you.

[Q] "Not Registered On Network"

I've had a search around the forums and haven't found a solution that works for me yet, so I am hoping someone can please help me here.
I keep getting the "not registered on network" error when I attempt to make a call on my SGS3, and can't recieve or make texts etc. Everything else works, I can still browse online etc. It is not a problem with the sim card as I have tried other sim cards in the phone and still have the same problem, and my sim is working fine in an old phone at the moment. I have also factory rest and installed different ROMs and still have the same problems.
The phone is Three (Ireland) branded but rooted and unlocked using the Galaxyunlock app and is now on Meteor (Ireland) network.
Someone suggested that my IMEI number may be blocked, but according to one of those sites that check if it is blocked or not - it isn't, but I don't know how reliable it is?
Anyone have any other ideas?

I think it is the modem. With J4 version modem is DLID, and I also had similiar problem. Cant call or recieve calls, but signal is full and I can browse. I didnt had message Not registered to network.
I flash J5 firmware which cam with J1 modem and dont have these problems. But now problem is that my phone reboots randomly

Hi I have the same problem with my galaxy s3 after the JB update .Can you give me the link for the J5 firmware please....
I'm with 3 Ireland and i used to get this but on ICS.
Basically what you need to do is go into mobile networks and manually search, it might take a while but 3 Irl or just 3 will appear just select that and it should be ok, i was fuming at 3 as i always used to have to do that but it seemed it was only when i was using ICS but when i upgraded to JB the problem stopped, i never use stock ROM either always AOSP.

I am having a similar issue, please see my post.
Have you found any workaround?
I have seen many posts regarding "no signal" issues, but most of them are related to problems with IMEI and serial number, which are not occurring in my phone.
Thanks!

[HELP] No Network Suddenly

Hey guys
my SGS3 GTi9300 suddenly does not detect any mobile network. I cannot make or recieve any calls :crying::crying:
I have tried using a different sim card and same issue. No Service.
My sim card in a different phone works properly.
Manual searching of the network does not work.
reboot, airplane etc does not work.
My IMEI and everything is proper I havent made any changes in the phone. A very Spontaneous problem.
everything else works fine. wifi bluetooth etc.
I am from India on LiquidSmooth v3.2 rom. Android 4.4.4.
Network provider Reliance.
Please help
Try a different modem.
The one you WAS using will work but do you know what one it was or have a back up of it? I'm from the UK so I don't know what modem you would use. Also check apns as this happens with that to. All this fails go back to stock and test. If that is still a fail it time to check if imei is blocked by provider . I belive India networks now block imei that have been reported.
Solution
Surprisingly changing the network mode from 3g to 2g worked. Now I have network.
My service provider sent me the settings again maybe they got deleted or something.
