Hi, I live in Argentina and have a AT&T I717 unlocked with ISC official rom.
The problem is about loss signal. When I turn on the phone its show Movistar with 2 or 3 signals bars but after few hours Movistar dissapear and I cant use the phone to make calls. I have to turn off and on the phone the resolve.
I used the simcard in another phone and never had the problem.
Any person with this problem ?
Regards
I used the tmobile modem since movistar uses the same 1700/2100 bands. You also have to change your APN settings.

I bought LG Optimus One not long ago, it came with Android 2.2.1, i am using Vodafone North East circle, INDIA... so when i put the SIM in my phone, it displayed roaming for a short second and then disappeared. But when i rooted the phone and installed void. it showed my network as roaming, Other provider doesn't shows as roaming.
I had a HTC TyTn II before and when i installed android on that phone, it also showed my vodafone north east india as roaming (but not other providers)
So how is it that the Indian v10c_00 rom does not show my network as roaming?? How can i do the same for my custom roms??
Thanks a lot
it depends, are you on roaming?
I am from North-east India (Mizoram), and i am using NE Circle Vodafone, so no i am not roaming.
if you are not being charged at roaming rates then you should not worry. its probably a problem from the other end.
Ok thanks... im not charged roaming, but i have to set settings to use data on roaming, which is not really a problem. i was just wondering why the R (roaming) icon is shown on the original FW and not others.. Thanks again
Howzit guys,
I brought a HTC Aria in the USA on AT&T network. I came back to SA and rooted my phone put Android v2.2 on (phone came with v2.1) thinking that would unlock the phone, but it didn't. I ended up looking on the net for a website that I could get an unlock code for my phone. Long story short, I found one, paid for it and it worked. I'm using the phone on Vodacom no matter what I do I can't get 3G or HSDPA to work, only GPRS. HSDPA and 3G work fine in the states.
After doing some research I noticed that in the Mobile Network settings on the phone there is 3 options under Network Mode:
1. WCDMA only
2. GSM only
3.GSM / WCDMA auto
Now from what I've seen I need to use WCDMA to get the 3G / HSDPA to work, but when I select option 1. I don't get any signal and then phone eventually switches to GSM automatically. I was at work on the weekend helping a customer with her laptop and she had a 8•ta 3G modem, and 8•ta 3G modems are currently running off of MTN's network I was told this by an 8•ta technician and I noticed when connecting the modem it said something regarding WCDMA.
So now my question, if I change to MTN do you think I will be able to use 3G / HSDPA on my phone?
Any info regarding this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
The American version of the Aria uses different 3G frequencies (because that's what AT&T uses), so unfortunately your phone will not work with 3G in South Africa. There is a different version of the Aria (called Gratia in most regions) that is the exact same phone except it supports the correct 3G frequencies for your country, but there's nothing you can do with the phone you have now to make it work.
Hello
I have a problem with my phone.
Model number: GT-I9100
Androiud version: 4.0.4
Baseband version:I9100XXKG6
Cyanogenmod version: 9-20120523
I've bought a WIND sim card and it works fine with a nokia phone, but somehow it doesn't work with my SGS2 at all.
I mostly don't get any signal with it , just once in a while a full signal but I just can choose Roger and Mobilicity as network. There is no WIND network and I can't do any phone calls or something.
I don't know what to do because it just works fine with the Nokia phone.
I changed the Custom Rom to WIUI and stock rom but no change.
Probably because that phone doesn't have aws frequencies it only works on bell rogers telus virgin

when I used WIUI it shows not Rogers and Mobilicity anymore but only WIND HOME and WIND AWAY, but I can't be registered on both.
It will be impossible to connect to Wind Home. Wind uses the 1700 UMTS frequency (same as T-Mobile USA) and the i9100 supports UMTS 850/1900/2100. The only SGS2 that supports the AWS frequency is Telus' SGS2X.
You now have three options if you want to use your phone:
1) Buy a new phone that's AWS compatible
2) Connect to Wind Away and enjoy roaming charges for everything
3) Switch to another Carrier that's not based on AWS
I'm sure I've got a sms from WIND after togging up saying I'm good to go.
And even when I use the Roger Network, I can't do any calls or anything.
Why is that so?
The answer above hasn't changed. Just because you can see the networks doesn't mean your phone supports the frequency required to make calls. Sim card doesn't matter either because its the network that's the problem.
Hello,
I am currently using Samsung Galaxy S2 SGH-I777. This is been unlocked with the code provided by AT&T. After unlock I am able to use the phone with my Vodafone IN sim with the 3G connection. Recently around 3 weeks back, I have upgraded the mobile from 4.0.3 to 4.1.2 via kies. Currently it is in I777UCMD8 band and Kernel version as 3.0.31-1154545-user [email protected] #3.
Since firmware upgrade, I am unable to use the phone with 3G.
The mobile network connection is not consistent, and unable to make or receive any calls.
I did some search in the forums and came across the code *#2263#. using this I selected the band as GSM only and i am able to have continuously, and able to receive and make the calls.
I tried out inserting another vodafone 3g sim and able to use the 3g and continuous signal on my mobile, where it is not working with my sim.
I tried out my sim in another 3g phone and was able to have access the 3g and continuous signal.
I have replaced my sim couple of times, and even that didn't worked for me.
Any help on this is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Krishna.

I bought this yellow Lumia 920 form USA. I live in Europe.
Unfortunately it was locked, I called AT&T and they gave me an unlock code and now it's unlocked.
I put 2 different SIMS inside but the phone shows no signal at all. It reads the SIM from inside ( services etc) but It will not lock to a signal.
When I boot it it shows an airplane mode and in 2 seconds the no signal icon. The airplane mode is disabled thought I checked enabling and disabling.
I decided to flash it to Rogers after reading all these comments here using Nokia Care Suite. It was succesful. The conversion was from RM-820 AT&T to ----> RM820 Rogers Canada.
I had the ability now to change from LTE to 3G and 2G but to no avail. The signal remained dead and it wouldn't find any signal after searching for new networks associated with my 2 sim cards that I tried.
If I flash it again to the rm-821 euro dev rom will it work ? The thing is that I can't find it nowhere to download it. Where did you guys found it from ?
Thanks
