Is there any method to do hard reset if the phone was locked? Because i'm not able to reach to the home screen as my phone is locked in a screensaver mode. It only said "Try again in xxxxx minutes" and I need to wait for the countdown to continue using my phone again.

I don't have any RSPL/HSPL installed yet. I'm using a stock ROM. I've just plan to installed the RSPL/HSPL, but since it is locked I can't do anything to my phone accept receiving a call.

Hello,
I have the Samsung Galaxy S II
Flashed with Dark litening rom.
Just today, this problem started. When I start up the phone I have signal for maye 5 minutes. Then I see coverage bars, but it says emergency calls only in the notification menu, and I cannot connect any calls.
I bought two of these off the same guy online about a month ago, the other one works fine so i think (hope) its not imei blocked.
I have googled it to no avail.
I have tried removing battery sim card and resetting.
I have tried a different sim card.
I have tried factory reset.
None of the above worked.
Please help.
Thanks in advance, any and all suggestions are appreciated
I checked the imei here:
http: //www . amta . org.au/?Page=405
And it says unblocked.
So it must be an error with the phone? Please help.
Thanks

Check your IMEI is the correct one that came with the phone and matches up under the battery ..
Probable you damaged EFS folder when flashing a rom .
Restore your backed up EFS folder .

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately I have checked that already and they are matching. Any other suggestions?

Do a factory reset, wipe data and cache from CWM recovery if you have it, or flash a new rom. (Backup anything you dont want to lose).

Hi! i experienced this issue with my Samsung Galaxy S2 after flashing ICS rom. It's weird as well that when I transfer the sim to different phone and place it back again to my phone then it works but the moment I reboot my phone then I will get the same issue...
Same problem
Same problem right here about a month in to using CM7
Going round in circles...
I've now tried all sorts.
Wipe caches, factory reset, different kernels, different modems, new SIM card, battery & SIM out, reboot, chec ed if phone is barred, checked if IMEI has changed, all sorts....
Still no luck.
Can anyone help?
I found out what the problem is.
The same thing happened to me.
Emergency calls only, couldn't connect to a network, out of service state, IMEI was fine.
I went to the network operator that sold me the phone, and they scanned my phones barcode and told me the phone is blacklisted.
Go to your network operator and check if this is the case. I'm 99% sure that it will be. You ought to be able to unblacklist the phone

Sadly 99% of those with a problem have not a blacklisted IMEI they just broke the EFS and never bothered to read the fAQS and GUIDES .

I have the same problem.
IMEI is fine.
How to fix?????
And have you both asked your carrier if the phone is IMEI blocked & absolutely positively 100% ruled out a carrier side problem ? (Given a lot of these problems tend to be carrier side one way or another).

Hi,
Any baseband error will result in this condition. Have you played with custom roms ?
Maybe you have version mismatch wp7/rex, or baseband is corrupted. Maybe
reflash to the latest version and check.
BR
it was like this before i even unlocked it
can you provide links or any help? im a noob when it comes to wp7
Really a strange problem, if you are using a pincode, remove the pincode and see if that helps, otherwise try another simcard.
Succes,

Return the phone, sounds faulty
so ive been searching online and i think the phone is being IMEI blocked by tmobile, is there anyway around this?
Dial ##782# and press the call button now you can see if your phone is having a simlock, if yes search the forum.

Okay thanks, there are not much options left.
But we still have two problems, could it be the phone or the sim-card.
About the phone, did you already a factory reset and installed everything again ?
If not, I suggest to try that first.
Can you also tell me more about the sim-card, did you cut the sim-card yourself to fit in the phone, ordered a new sim, using an old one ?
First, if you ordered a new sim-card, just call T-mobile and asked them if you have to activate your sim.
Second, try to put a piece of paper on the sim-card to make it more stable.
For now I'm out of options,
Good luck,
Hi guys, I need your help badly, plzzzz.
So, it happened one day that my phone kept restarting after I wanted to call my mum. Every time the phone booted up, and i typed in the right PIN, the problem remaind.
I tought that a factory reset could solve the problem...it couldn't. (btw, without the SIM in it, the phone worked; thats how i menaged to do a factory reset). After that i managed to upgrade the firmware (from 2.1.1.A.0.6 to 2.1.1.C.0.0) even though that PCC said that there is no upgrade for my phone. Finally I solved the problem, but just for i while. Everything was good till i dialed again, the problem reappeared.This time it didn't recognise the SIM anymore and i had no signal, but the restarting stoped.
Then i tried something else. I wanted to unlock the bootloader, but it was already unlocked (i bought the phone secondhand), so I replaced the stock kernel and the rom, with nAa kernel(v.13) and a MiniCM7-2.2.1 custom rom. But the problem still remains. The current state is that i keep recieving "Insert the SIM card, and restart the phone" notification, and i have no signal, everything else is work fine. Plz give me suggestions what to do, to restore the cell to usable state. Thank you for advance for you'r assistance.

Repair to stock rom and lock your bootloader might do the trick.. don't lock the bootloader on a custom kernel.
Hi,
Idiot here, I was quite annoyed at the stock 4.3 update, I decided to root and install a Rom on my phone, how wrong I was, I subsequently stayed up late at night, without finding an answer to why the phone was not being able to register on my network.
I found out that the IMEI number issue, so my question is, if I re-install 4.3 and load up my phone via kies with my back up, will this work?
Or has anyone got any suggestions?
Much Appreciated
Nothing worked

I did the same mistake.
I have upgraded the phone to the above mentioned firmware, still I am unable to make calls / send message. Whenever I try to make a call - receiving an error message "Not registered to Network". When I try to search for networks I was able to find the network and register to it, receive a message confirming the sim is registered to the network. But within a fraction of second I see emergency calls only popup.
Installed modem file from sd card - Didn't work
Downgraded to a stock firmware - Didn't work
Followed the sammobile thread - 14253
Nothing worked. I am using my phone now to play games now
Tried getting a new sim card from a different carried (go-phone) that didnt work too.
