I have two sims in my mobile 1)bsnl 2)Airtel
Today i was using airtel 3g for browsing it suddenly started disconnecting. And then showed no signal.
Then i rebooted , when it rebooted both of them had no tower and a cross symbol was displayed.
I rebooted 2 more times and the same thing happened, then i opened notification bar in bottom it showed imei number not found. I got afraid and removed airtel sim and rebooted now bsnl is working fine, i put the airtel sim in datacard and it is also working fine. Whats the problem?

ive been using the phone for a few weeks now and it was fine until today, i cant connect to the internet via edge . ive tweaked with all the settings but nothing seems to work. everything else is fine . ie i can make calls and send text's but i cant connect to the internet. i checked under the status and it shows the mobile network state is disconnected. i have no clue as to wat this is since im new to android.
pls help!
Have you turned MOBILE DATA off via the power on/off menu .
jje
ive checked that too.
Go to Settings- Wireless and Network- Mobile Networks- Access Point Names and see if the APN is ticked or not or the correct APN is ticked.
everything is back to normal again,it connected to the internet, by itself . must be a random bug in the os
problem solved. peace
I have experienced the same thing with my phone, except that it shows "activated". After a while it just started working again.
I've had the phone for a couple of months now and everything has worked fine till now, a little bugs here and there but no issues. A few weeks back (on android 2.3.3) I was unable to make or receive calls, but surprisingly was able to make text messages. I tried everything, turning flight mode on/off; the phone on/off; etc. I was on the verge of contacting Samsung but then suddenly the thing started working once I came back home from the office.
There has been no problems till then but today suddenly (now on android 2.3.6) the outgoing calls no longer work, same for outgoing text message; but I still get incoming calls and messages.
Just to be sure that this wasn't a SIM or service issue, I tried changing SIM's (different SIM did not work on the phone) and used my SIM on different phone (where it worked).
Also 3G doesn't work as well, but connection here is spotty so I wouldn't trust that. The only message I see different on the 'About Phone' tab is 'Mobile State-Disconnected'. I have full signal strength and all that.
My thoughts are that it was, or rather is a phone specific issue and would appreciate someone else's thoughts on the matter. As to my problem I assume it will sort itself out in a little while.
FYI: Samsung Galaxy S2; Android 2.3.6; NOT rooted; Indian version; On Airtel Mobile Network.
Mobile network state disconnected.
Hi guys, I have the same problem with my network connection also my 3g does not work anymore, I`m play with some secret codes like a ##72786# on my epic 4g touch sprint phone flashed to metro pcs and now I have no 3G service. In the setting menu under network status say Sprint. How can I get my 3g back?. The mobile net. 3G is on and the wifi is off. I need to change the network to metro pcs in the status setting and how can do that? Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English.
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.
hi guys my phone was working fine until i updated it yesterday now all i get is no network connection when trying to make a call

Hi, I came accross this situation which i cannot understand how.
I am using cyanogenmod 9.1 in my HTC Explorer (pico) with BSNL Mobile as carrier in India.
Recently, I moved to another state and android is showing roaming. After one or two days, the roaming symbol disappeared. Even in phone info (*#*#4636#*#*), it says not roaming.
Then i took a backup and started using the same ROM from start (wiped data and cache). Roaming indicator started showing. But even after a week, the roaming is still there. It says roaming in phone info also.
Then I restored my old backup. There is no roaming in that same backuped ROM!! How is this possible? One ROM says not roaming( ROM i was using in my home) and other says roaming. even after several switching between then few times.
The thing I noticed is that in one rom, it says network as "BSNL Mobile" but in the other it is "Cellone". Both are same operator only ie mobile services of bsnl is cellone.
How does android detect roaming?
Can you explain why this is happening?
Which android package is responsible for network selection?
Can we manually select which signal channel of same operator to use?
How can i make other ROM also to show as not roaming?
This is the same case with my friend also. He is also using BSNL in Samsung Galaxy W. So i guess its android and network dependent.

Hi all, I recently got a weird and strange issue out of the blue 2 days ago. No update/changes made just before issue, no playstore update done too for at least 4 days before issue popped up.
Sim Slot 1: Airtel 4G
Sim Slot 2: Idea GSM
Android Version: 6.0 (Moto's OTA official release)
Baseband Version: M8916_2020629.41.03.21.51R SURNIA_EMEA_DSDS_CUST
Kernel Version: 3.10.49-g4979ca4 [email protected] #1
System Version: 24.51.39_SURNIA_retasia_ds.retasia all.en.03 retin
Build Number: MPI24.65-39
Unrooted and Locked bootloader
Issue: 1 SIM doesn't connect to network
1. Airtel was receiving 4G signals without any problem for weeks, however 3 weeks ago, it showed only "H" which is fine with me and working decently well.
2. Was watching a YouTube video, the Airtel network on SIM Slot 1 goes off. Searched for network, gets message "Error while searching for network", Idea on SIM Slot 2 works fine.
3. Airtel SIM is fine, both SIM Slots on Moto E2 are fine. Tested different combinations with my other SIMs and handsets.
4. Did airplane mode few times, no go, did radio turn off and on in *#*#4636#*#* . Gets lag there. Turns off on touchwiz but inside 4636 still shows on button to turn " off" radio, also selected LTE/GSM(PRL) in preferred network ther.
Played a little and found 2 temporary workarounds.
Workaround 1 : (Fixes problem for 5 minutes or so)
Disable SIM in Slot 1, Switch mobile data to Slot 2, enable SIM in Slot 1, gets network, switch mobile data to Slot 1, gets "H"... Slot 1 at "4G recommended" by default, 5 minutes later, network goes off. Search for network, mostly get "Error searching for network", randomly, Slot 1 detects Airtel network, when connected, says " SIM doesn't allow connection to this network", back to square one...
Workaround 2: (Has been fine for past half hour while I am typing the issue here using the problematic connection)
Set Slot 1 to 3G as soon as it gets working network with working 3G, after doing exact same steps as in Workaround 1.
To be noted: 4G/3G Airtel Network is fine in area, Airtel SIM is fine, SIM Slots are fine, other Idea SIM in Slot 2 doesn't show any problem at all and connects to internet too just fine on EDGE ( as it's a 3 yr old sim) , numerous restarts done, app cache cleared.
I am a Noobie, so please bear with me, I posted all the relevant details I could think of, as detailed as possible. Phone is 2 months old only, came with lollipop, upgraded to marshmallow through Moto's OTA update, never rooted or played around with ever.
This is driving me crazy, I could logically only think of some problem in the OS causing this issue without any warning or apparent reason... Tried different forums, no one posted about facing similar issue in India anywhere yet.

I haven't seen this issue on my phone either. I have the Indian 4G Variant as well (XT1521). I would Recommend u to go to recovery mode and wipe data and cache (This should completely erase ur phone and hopefully fix ur issue). If this doesn't work I'd recommend u try and unlock ur bootloader and flash CM13 and test if this issue persists. If this issue persists I believe it's a hardware problem. Don't worry unlocking ur bootloader will void warranty but relocking it is extremely easy which will prevent ur warranty from being void.
Best of luck[emoji2] [emoji2]

Thank you for suggestions
Hi All,
Just to update, my workaround 2 has been working so far without any problem for the past 1 week, I can put airplane mode on and off and it comes back, I restart too and get proper network on both sims and the 3G mobile network of Airtel. Scared of putting recommended network as 4G for Airtel or playing around with it more for now fearing I may lose it again. If I have to do in future, I'll post the outcome..... :laugh:
I've wiped the cache though from recovery mode as suggested... don't know if it changed anything... Also did all playstore updates without problem.
