Did you pay your bill?
Did you just get the phone? It could be blacklisted.
I almost suffocated trying to read you OP. It made my head spin just trying to understand it so I gave up. Ever heard of punctuation?

Troll much help or dont but grammar really was using talk to txt yes the bill is paid I have had the phone for 7 months rooted on an old blackstar rom without issues.
It wasn't until I reflashed the phone that the problem started Plus simple mobile doesn't blacklist phones they don't even record IMEI

Please borrow an at&t sim that you know works. Reboot the phone and give it a minute.
Check wireless settings to see if mobile data is checked.
Please use a comma and periods now and then.

it does the same thing with an AT&T sim card it says not registered on network and cannot connect try again later
the at&t sim card I used is not currently active but when stuck in an unlocked GSM razor it will allow me to make phone calls 2 611
anyone have any ideas
That is much better. Sounds like the issues past T-mobile users have gone through. I believe what they had to do was reinstall the stock ROM via odin, reroot, see if they can get registered on the network with the ATT modem first, and then flash the appropriate modem for simple mobile.

Dont know how funny this is by I bought a spare i717 on craigslist today flashed the Tmobile SGH-T879 rom and boot file in odin. Then I flashed the blaze ics modem and woot works. So I thought just repeat process wipe phone with cwm recovery boot into download mode and load tmobile img flash blaze ics and it would work still will not register? wth
But you can't tell how many flashes the phone has had, and what junk is in there. That is why someone suggested you return the phone to stock to make a fresh start.

I have a quick question because I've run into a problem I can't seem to fix.
First, so everyone knows what I'm dealing with:
Phone: i717
Changes: Rooted (Shows super user access), CWM v5.5.0.4, Unlocked (Tested)
Rom: Stock AT&T Rom
Sim Card: Works in a T-mo branded Exhibit II 4G.
I flashed a radio (tried KID, 0331122 from the radio thread in the dev section, and reflashed the original AT&T radio).Even w/ the original radio installed, it cannot seem my T-Mo sim now.
Do I need to flash a new Rom or what? Wipe data to factory reset?
I would rather not change anything w/o asking since flashing radios seems to be a straight forward thing that most ppl have done w/o touching the rom.
Thanks ahead of time.
Mine worked with a rooted stock rom at first it didnt see the sim then i tried searching the network under wireless and networks it took a few minutes but then it came up.

don't forget if you are running an ICS based ROM you need an ICS based Radio/modem.
EDIT: i see you're running the original GB rom so you need the GB radio.
give it a few minutes to find a signal or go to settings/mobile networks/network operators. choose manual. then let it search a few minutes. then select t-mobile.
I find the Blaze 4G radio worked best for me, but depending on your area, your results may differ. try em all.
You guys are insanely fast.
I'm currently on the stock radio & I'm still getting the same message after letting the sim sit in the phone for 9 minutes (yes, I watched the clock, lol):
Insert SIM card to access network services
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Where should I go from here?
Edit: Is the answer flashing another rom? Maybe something has become corrupt? I don't see how as I've read & re-read walk thrus for doing this to make sure.
I've done a little more reading. Flashing the beta ICS rom flashes to the old AT&T modem.
Would this be the best bet?
Edit: After looking through the "about" phone...
I'm on 4.0.3
Baseband: Unknown............. that's really bad.
Edit 2:
After reading, I needed to back up the EFS. No where is this stated anywhere, unfortunately. That contains IMEI and everything else.
Edit:
So, after reading MORE, the IMEI number is on a sticker behind the battery, along w/ the S/N.
Huh? Efs? I dont even know what that is nevermind backing it up. Goto clockworkmod and flash the radio.zip and reboot. Thats all there is to it.

If you look up EMEI number related to flashing the radio, there's a lot of hits.
XDA has a thread on it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1352371
I'm quite shocked it's not mentioned everywhere as this happens to people now and again.
I have my IMEI number, i just don't know how to input it into the phone.
As for flashing the radio, I've flashed 2, then back to the original. To no avail.
Sorry never had anything like that. I would almost odin back to stock and start over. You dont need root for the sim to work on calls and edge with tmobile.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
If you're baseband is unknown don't worry just flash a stock at&t modem and it should go back to normal. Your imei is under a different menu in about phone..the status one.
Also its no ones responsibility to tell you that modifying your phone may break it.

I did flash back to the stock AT&T baseband as stated in the original post.
If I go to About Phone, the Baseband Version is unknown.
If I go to Status, the following are listed as
Network: Unknown
Mobile Network: Unknown
Service State: Out of service
Mobile Network State: Disconnected
IMEI: Unknown
IMEI SV: Unknown
I've backed up the EFS that I have no just so it doesn't degrade further. I'll try to flash again and see, but I still think the EFS is borked.
I'll see what I can, but I think I'll the EFS is borked beyond flashing it to normal.
My point about the EFS back up is that most ppl here don't seem to know what it is. It shouldn't be that foreign of a topic since flashing a radio is obviously problematic for some. I've seen other posts concerning no IMEI after flashing radios on forums other than XDA. It's odd that it's not mentioned as a sticky everywhere.
Backing up EFS would solve a lot of head aches from unlocking / radio flashing woes. I'm hoping this info will save a few people a lot of time and money.
After more digging, I came across this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646326
Synopsis: Basically, he followed the same guide I did. The only difference is that I flashed the radio while using a stock AT&T rom. Once he flashed back to GB (saurom), he gained back his baseband / IMEI.
This is what I cannot figure out:
CWM will see and flash any radio file I push to my note. If I push a stock AT&T rom, it won't see it. If I put the rom in it's own folder, it seems the rom, but states there's no files.
Is CWM corrupted? Why would it only read firmware to flash radios, but not android roms? Should I just go back and install CWM?
I've searched all over & used google, but I can't find a thread discussing this.
Fixed.
This problem has nothing to do with any of the radios corrupting the EFS folder. Albeit, it's always a good idea to back it up.
Flashing back to AT&Ts stock rom (2.3.6 or 4.0.3) never fix the issue. You will always be stuck w/o a radio, at least from what I've seen. Even flashing back to the stock radio fails. I don't know if it changes the EFS, but AT&T's rom does not like it and shows no IMEI & a bogus SN .
I had to go back, flash to saurom and a compatible GB (or beta T-mobile) radio to get te work fine. ICS radios work fine on ICS.
Saurom and GB radios dont work in my i 717 trying to connect to wind. I got a CM 9 ICS build and ive tired a bunch of radios. they all failed. i keep getting no sim errors. I can see the operator but when i select it it times out and says it cannot connect to the network at this time. it also says interset sim. Im positive it is unlocked.
Modems(radios) or basebands should have nothing to do with whatever rom you are running. Whether they are GB, ICS, or JB modems, they should all work to a degree, at least for phone call ability. I have flashed many different radios trying to get the best function of my att note on t-mo. The best I got was using the Blaze modem. That got me 3g hspa.
The worst will be just giving you edge speed. My note is unlocked and has been on JB running blaze ICS modem working fine. Maybe you need to start over, evaluate what you have, and go from there. There are great threads on att over t-mobile. Good luck.
I picked my rom, and started flashing 5 or 6 radios, and found what one worked best on t-mo.
Presently, I have switched back to att- sort of- straight talk. I'm not thrilled with the speeds. No higher than 4 mbps DL, and 1-1.5 UL. Thinking about going back to t-mo and dealing with the slow UL speeds. I'm on an ICS rom with the ucle6 modem.
Also, flashing a rom does not change your modem. You have to physically reflash the modem you want. Some modems show up as unknown under the baseband. Blaze is one of them.
Another thought- sometimes a reboot will get your sim recognized by your phone.

Really what an incredible unlucky glitch.I got my note for only 360CDN good condition but missing the stylus, even still it was a good buy. I'm on Wind mobile, T-mobile here in Canada. I even gave it to somebody who's done a bunch and they ran into the no sim problem. I guess I'll be going back to my HTC HD2 and sell the note .
---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------
So just to confirm I have followed the process correctly over 20 times and no matter which cm9 cm10 based rom and any ics or gb based radio will allow connection or recognize the sim to the 1700 aws network. With a cm9 based rom I can see my network, but it will not allow connection like the phone is locked, even though i have unlocked and tested the phone on other networks.

Yes, I have the same 'No SIM' issue with a working WIND SIM. I've tried everything, multiple Radios, multiple ROMs. Very strange problem. I wish we had the tools that the SGSIII has for dumping and restoring the NV ram. Even stranger, I do have a the correct IMEI number in Phone, About. I have a feeling it's something to do with how the phones were carrier unlocked.

I have the same problem with "NO SIM." One day i flashed so many things to my phone and one time i turned it on i got ATT on the top right corner and everything was good. I made some phone calls and texts and even browsed the web. I restarted the phone to check if it was just a fluke and it was. Ever since then i cannot get it to read my phone, but i know for sure the hardware works.

Thanks in advance!
a little update here. I tried to flash back to android GB 2.3 rom (saurom). I was able to get the imei and baseband back but still no signal.
Losing your radio is not a "brick". Just restore to stock and start over. Or perhaps you have backups to revert to?

Fix here
BASICALLY THE ROM YOU FLASHED PROBABLY HAD A DEFECTIVE RADIO....FIND ANOTHER RADIO ZIP FILE THAT WORKS WELL FOR YOUR PHONE AND FLASH THAT ZIP FILE....IF YOU'RE COMING FROM AT&T AND WANT TO USE TMOBILE 4G, FLASH ICSBLAZE.ZIP....IT WORKED FOR ME....OR IF ALL FAILS...USE THE KIES METHOD BELOW
To get to download mode when hooked up to Kies: hold down volume down and power at the same time until download mode comes up. And push volume up button once download screen comes up. Hook the phone up to Samsung Kies and click "Tools" and click "Firmware upgrade and initialization".....enter model using caps "SGH-I717" and enter ok....and enter serial number...using caps....and sit tight and wait...it'll be like the phone you get straight out of the box....all working and non-rooted....
It seems we have two more cases of T-Mobile conversion failures ...
With one device being restored ....and the other in process ...
I'm tracking these issues , as it seems that the current methods are jamming users up a bit...
If the two of you wouldn't mind, could you place your methods you used in my thread ?
I'm gathering as much information as possible regarding the I717 being used on T-Mobile, and your information would help immensely...

Wind uses T-Mobile bands. Go get the blaze modem in the T-Mobile thread discussion.
But if you get a sim card not recognized or a no sim card inserted error, its not the modem. Check your sim in any GSM phone to see it it is damaged or not provisioned.

Well, its a brand new phone, perfectly clean and i had it working before. at first when updated to onlyone rom, i tried many that didnt work until i found one that did. but i found the speeds were too slow, so today i decided to shop around for some others, but now that i flashed these ones, i cant get the original one working again.
are you sure its hardware and not software?

The solution to this problem is all those on the Tmobile/Wind/Mobilicity network need to flash one of these radios after they have flashed a rom of their choosing. I believe the radios that come with these roms are for the AT&T/Bell/Rogers/Telus networks

No, it actually "does" have to do with the modem sometimes. I flashed several roms and, when i got the error, it was only with a certain rom and, after going back to the other rom, the problem was gone. The SIM wasn't touched hence...it was not the SIM.

Flashing a rom does not flash a modem. So with all the rom changes you did, you never touched the modem.
Only a few update packages contain both a rom and a modem.

Yes and my packages "may" have been some of those packages. Stop assuming....believe it or not you don't see everything that goes on at the other end. I also flashed other modems as well, the three made for T-Mobile, along with those roms and just didn't add it into the conversation. The Padawan ROM actually "does" carry multiple modems.
What ever, dude. Stop getting so excited. Its just information.

Possibly. Something could have been corrupted in the process. If it still does it on stock go to Verizon and complain.
i flashed back to stock and my download speed is 800 and upload is 85. it shows I have a 4g signal and the system status shows that my signal is -102 or -98.
anyone else have any ideas?
So things ive tried:
1. new sim.
2. back to stock touchwiz through odin
3. flash stock modem through odin and stock kernel
4. doing the whole process to root and stuff manually, then installed a customer recovery manually and then flashed a new rom, still no results
are we going to call this hardware failure? or is there any other reset type thing i can do

I have a Verizon i605 that I've been using since around Christmas. I have decided to go to ATT go phone or straight talk, but I can't get the phone to accept a GSM sim card of any kind. Ive tried an H20 sim, 2 different GoPhone sims and a straight talk (att) sim. In all cases the phone will give the NON-Verizon sim error and not allow any calls. I've tried flashing different ROMs and no changes have taken place. I have also tried flashing the radio to no avail. I've searched all night in the forums and have come up empty. Seems like im the only one who cant get any response from the phone in GSM. For the record, the phone is rooted and unlocked, Ive tried GSM only and global modes, I can sometimes get the phone to show signal but get a "phone is not registered" error when trying to dial out. Replacing my Verizon sim results in full working use. Does anybody know anything else I can try? I'm working on downloading VRAMC3 to flash in Heimdall but thought I would reach out before losing my root/unlock. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Add in the APN info and you should be good. The non verizon sim error is normal unless you remove files that make that happen.
Either flash a ROM that has the AT&T APN info like JellyBeans 21 or...
Check out one of my old posts about the AT&T APN info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42953285&postcount=4
I will try to keep an eye on this thread and help out if you need further assistance, good luck.
correct me if im wrong, but wouldnt you lose lte because of the different frequencies?

Ive tried beans 21 and cleanrom 5.0. Ive gitten some network respinse from flashing cleanrom as if it is a n7100 but that is when I get the cannot register on the network errors. It will show a signal from at&t at that point. Im currently downloading the odin file but will have to use heimdall fir the first time to flash it because im now running osx. Hopefully it will work. I dow however think that my problem may be kernel related as I cant get the phone to charge past about 50%. Ive tried flashing beans using several variants of the kernel and havent had luck there either.
Now I can't get Heimdall to recognize the PIT that I'm pulling from my own device or load the odin file I've downloaded. Should the Odin file be in zip format? How do I make it an MD5 file for heimdall?
I am in the exact same situation as you. I have a VZW Note 2 and went to AT&T on a GoPhone plan.
When I first set it up I took my phone in with JellyBeans 18 on it and the manager at the store put my sim in and activated it and set up all my APN info. Try doing that, install any ROM (full data wipe and format) that you know works 100% with AT&T (including kernel) and just have them set it up for you. if it then don't work, you might be looking at a hardware problem with your GSM radio maybe?
All is good. Apparently the sim I was trying to use had a data block on it and the GN2 WILL NOT work with a phone with a data block. I borrowed a friends ST sim and it worked fine. I stressed an entire day over this. Thanks to those who helped. If anybody knows though, I took no OTA update EVER on this phone, can I ODIN (Heimdall) back to VRALJ with no problems? It's the only tar.md5 file i can seem to locate.
