hi i really hope someone can give me some advice,ill get straight to it.....
i recently bought my samsung galaxy s2 from ebay,,it was on o2 firmware but the phone was unlocked,i rooted the phone and installed a custom rom,,after a couple days use i changed the sim card and found that although i have 3g reception and can access internet,,i cant make or recieve calls my network has checked and theres no problem there,,and 02 said the phone is definately not locked,,but i cant call out or message and now i cant get the phone to accept the original sim which was working i hope this makes sense and someone can hopefully give me some advice Please
Thamks in Advance
What does it say when you try to call someone?
the phone disconnects immediately with call ended message, when i try to call the phone it says this number is not accepting calls at this moment although virgin say there is nothing wrong,,i also contacted the original operator o2 who aslo say they dont see any problem with the handset,,i cant connect to any other networks at all now,,just get the cant connect to network message try later,,and the only network i do get is virgin the phone says im connected i can access internet through 3g but just cant make or recieve calls or messages,,ive tried flashing original firmware through odin but to no avail,,im gutted only had phone 2weeks and cant make callls,,and as i bought through ebay i have no warranty
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Try to reflash your SGSII. Its fantastic phone but little tricky.
Why wouldn't you have a warranty? You got original receipts? You sure you flashed everything properly?
You might need to send it off for repair.
since it was bought on ebay i dont have receipts,,i have a feeling it may have been disconnected by the o2 network.....in the process of dealing with the seller (fingers crossed)
hi guys, i just got robbed from a thief, is there a way to find my galaxy s2 bought in France SFR operator running ICS with CF-ROOT(chainfire)?
I already reported to the police station, and blocked my sim card from my operator.
I just remembered that i have also samsung dive on my phone so what i am trying to say is:
if my thief recharges my phone battery and without sim card can i localize my phone?
or if he changes the sim card with his one, is then possible to track with samsung dive? or even make a call remotelly?
is there a way to track my phone with my imei code?
is it true that if i report my phone loss in France it will be blocked only here and works in all other country?
where do i check to see if police did a good job (block my phone imei)?
any other help are all welcome!

That`s bad news sorry to hear that, it would definitely help if you would have cerberus installed which is a brilliant phone locator and remote control app but since you haven`t you can try to go to the Samsung Dive website of course and try to find it through it but I never tested Samsung Dive so I can`t tell if it will work.
The key is to be quick now, and just hope that he doesn`t know what`s Odin and that he has no knowledge of flashing other firmwares. Try to install this App if Samsung Dive doensn`t help:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lookout.labs.planb&hl=de
you can just install it from your computer and if the thief is still connected to your gmail account it will be automaticly installed on your phone and it will send the current Phone - position to your gmail address. Just install it and read the instructions.
Good luck with finding your phone mate
now it is mather of time and luck, thanks budy, i try to refresh samsung dive every day to see if someone turn it on
DIVE should be able to help, with the restriction that it needs a data connection of some kind (mobile packet data, or WiFi) to send the commands to your phone. I've configured Tasker to turn my mobile data on daily to anticipate this (I normally keep both mobile data and WiFi turned off, to maximise battery life).
nice tip, i will try to do the same next time
If I would steel someone's phone , I would ask xda same questions no offence dudes.

Bad news mate, hope you find it
If you do manage to get it back I've heard Prey anti-theft is pretty good
So. I've had my S3 for quite awhile now currently on 3 network. Something really odd happened though.
I was able to use it normally in the morning, once I got to the afternoon it I lost all network.
The only thing that I can use to connect to anything is Wifi
Usually there would be a little "H" symbol next to my signal bar when it's full. Now there is nothing but the full signal bar.
When I pull the notification bar down I see a Emergency calls only though I have full signal
I've gone into Settings>More settings>Mobile networks>Network operators to see if I can find a way to connect. I can choose from the networks on screen. Yet it tells me Unable to connect. Try later. I select "Select automatically" which doesn't help either, as it tells me "Registered on network" WHAT NETWORK?!
The Network mode is on Auto
My Mobile Data is on.
My Apn is on "3 WAP"
I've tried rebooting the phone.
Restoring to factory settings.
Turning phone to Flight mode then off again.
Re-inserting Sim.
I've even rooted the phone to see if it would work!!
Can anyone help me solve this ridiculous puzzle? :crying:
Thank you for your time.
Mine is the same. On 3UK in Leicester

Logic says first check network for problems .

Last time I hd this issue, it was caused by a faulty SIM.
I think you have some really bad news. I looks like your efs folder is messed up.
you need send it back if in warranty.
otherwise you can get it repaired from some service centre. They will use SPT or some other repair tool to fix this issue.
You see full bars because you phone uses any available signals for SOS call.
Otherwise it will not lock to network.

Hi! since you are new here, have you read the Forum Rules? not that you've done something wrong but just to get you informed
Here are some suggestions i can give you
okay. if ONE fails, do TWO. if TWO fails, do THREE. if THREE fails, do FOUR.
ONE: reboot
TWO: try doing factory reset (don't forget to backup) / wiping caches
THREE: root your phone and flash another modem
FOUR: contact your network service provider about this matter
i hope this helps Cheers!
samsung galaxy s3 i9300 sim registers but only emergency calls
In my case (sgs3) the problem was caused by the fact that I also formatted the efs partition (something used by Samsung to store hardware identifiaction like IMEI, ...).
If efs is empty/gone/changed(?), the phone will be unable to make regular calls: only emergency calls will be available!
Peace!

why exactly did you resurrect a 4 months old thread?
Cos people run into the same problem all the time and that no permanent/clear solution is available. Any info is good, even if it's just to say that there is no solution yet

But this efs issue has been answered many, many times in the forum - usually people wrecking their £500 phone because they didn't read or understand what they were doing.
This forum is messy enough without needlessly bumping long dead threads that didn't have anything of use in. If people want really helpful information they should read the all-in-one sticky in the general forum.

FINALLY somebody whom sees the Big Picture - thanx :good:

Ok you're right, everyone should read sticky notes and try keep the forum tidy. Look, I don't want to go too off-track here but this problem is not just limited to Samsung handsets. I'm seeing similar reports about Sony's, which is what i've got. And there is no efs partition that can be saved on a sony because they don't come with one. I'm beginning to suspect that the problem might be with ICS/JB and this is why it's poping up on different phones/threads, with different roms etc.

Hello to everyone!, I'm Mexican and I don't sepak English very well, so I hope you understand me guys.
I have a Xperia NEO V, and aproximately 3 weeks ago, my phone starts to send me messages about my SIM.
when this messages appear my phone lose the signal (TELCEL) and my phone says "SIM not detected", If I reboot my phone, i got signal again, but after 10 minutes aproximately the message appear again and this happens every day.
I though it was a problem with the Sim, but i changed it to another phone and works well , then I put another SIM to my phone and the phone read it well... So I don't understand what's happening, my phone reads another SIMS, but only with my SIM it's the problem. Today I entered to TELCEL page to check if there is a solution to my problem, I signed up in the page and Telcel send a message to my phone and the signal come back. WTF?
Any explication to my problem? I post this becouse if the problem backs maybe here anybody post a solution and i'll solve this strange thing .
I've neo v mt11i, Rooted, and the Cream caramel ROM (4.0.4) (with bootloader blocked).
Edit: Again I have the same problem, the Signal it's gone, only for a while (1-2 hours) , then I recover the signal.
I dont know what's happening. :/
I hope u' help me guys.

Maybe your sim flex is damaged or the pin of the sim flex...try to clean it with air or any staff you can..
Or replace it with new one
