K so i got a vibrant. Its got the right product code, wrong imei(some fake 0049 thing) and when i unlocked it, it said network unlock successful. So everything shouldve been fine.
But everytime i turn it on, i just get 'no service'. It auto updates time and date and everything. and data works. But it just says no service so i cant make calls or texts.
Anyone got any ideas? I restored to factory multiple times. Odined back to stock firmware. Tried everything but no luck
This is the first thing I would try . Go to settings , wireless and network , mobile network settings then click network operators it'll search for a network and try to register to the network .

Did that a bunch of times. It just keeps saying your sim card doesnt allow a connection to this network. I tried a legit att sim card as well as a t-mobile one
Make sure you are in an area with good reception . When I lost data this is what did the fix for me . It didnt work first try either so keep searching it will eventually register the network .

I did but unfortunately no success. I have another vibrant and did the same exact thing and that works perfect everywhere. When i move over the sim card to this one, data works but just says no service.
I am having the same problem, It shows full network on the bar... but says NO SERVICE! When i try to make calls it says Not Registered on the Network... I don't get Data either... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yea man ive been trying everything possible. Flashed like 10 different roms. Used different techniques to mess around with the nv_data.bin files. No luck
I don't think the fake IMEI would be the issue. I had the same fake number after I flashed a new ROM from stock - I could still make calls, etc.
But if you want to restore your nv_data.bin, you can pull it from a saved stock backup, make it the only thing in efs and reboot. If you don't think you have a backup stock, try looking for a file on the sdcard called ProductCodeCheck. It may also be under SGS Tools.
Hi there!
I've found several threads with this issue, but still not that serious like mine.
I've been using my GS II for 3 month without any problem, untill yesterday. During surfing on the net the network suddenly gone away and since I don't have mobile network connection. I've got IMEI, CSC, signal from provider (unlocked phone), my SIM card works in other devices, I also updated the firmware, I made several hard resets, checked other SIM cards, checked the problem with flight mode, but I haven't found any solutions. The signal sign is there in the upper corner, but I'm not able to connect to any providers for 48 hours.
Please help me. I don't know what to do
Maybe a country specific CSC change? I don't know how to do that. I have one .tar file for that but Odin can't install it. I'm a beginner here...
Thanks in advance...
Have you tried checking the access point settings?
Sent from my GT-I9100
Yes. They are fine. I've just changed them and put them to default again because there was no change.
When the phone went offline I was just surfing on the net so I did not change any options.
Any other ideas maybe?
Thanks...
try talking to your provider. Your account may have a problem which could be fixed by a simple reset on their end.
Thanks for the comment. Well, I've tried to use other sims for the same and also from other providers, even a sim from another country, and none of them worked. I also tried to put my sim into another phone and the sim works fine there. The only logical solution is that the problem is with the phone.
I guess it's worth a try, maybe they blocked the IMEI of the phone because of something? It's not a stolen mobile though.
Now I've got a flashed brand new mp4 player from samsung. Nice, it drives me crayz...
Another idea. While I was surfing on the net I installed "advanced task killer" (before the "crash" happened) and I killed some ordinary apps (not sure about this) then I just deleted the program. This connection rejecting thing happened after this. That's why I thought I should make a firmware update, maybe the problem was caused by this task killer. Well, don't know if the is a connection or not...
I have exactly the same proble with my Galaxy SII - I went on a long trip - when I got back it stopped working. Has anyone found a solution to this?
To reiterate - the phone sees all the networks, but when I select Vodafone UK I get the message "unable to select vodafone UK automatically". The sim card works fine in other phones - there is clearly an issue with the phone. The only thing that has changed is I have updated some of my apps on returning home.
Any ideas?

My CSC is XEU (correct for UK as far as I can see - and has worked for the past 3 months)
Sim card works fine in another phone
Network is fine (my wife is also on Vodafone and has no issues - my sim works on the network on her phone)
My Imei is correct
-Everyone else who has had this problem had no joy with a factory reset so I'm loathe to try it until I''ve tried everything else.
Any other ideas?
Just to recap:
The phone is stuck in emergency calls only mode
I can see all my local networks (Vodaphone, Orange etc...)
When I try to connect (in any of the modes 2g/3g) I get the error message
The sim card works fine in other phones
Other people's sim cards have the same issue in my phone
There are plenty of 'Emergency calls only' threads around, but the ones that have my exact symptoms never seem to get solved. Does anyone have any other ideas, or better, has anyone come across a thread where the issue was resolved? Getting pretty desperate.
tried rooting and flashing different modems maybe its a hardware problem with the modem.

i have the same problem in greece galaxy s2 i9100....in ics i havent network in 2.3.5 i have...i dont know why...in cm9 ics i have network...
Last update - I have flashed the phone to Ice Cream Sandwich, (LPQ version), which means I have:
Carried out a factory reset
Flashed a new ROM and Modem
When I rebooted it asked me for my carrier (Vodafone UK) and filled in the APN settings itself. I still have the same issue. I can't work out what is left that I haven't reset/reloaded that could still be causing issue. There can't be many settings left that aren't new?

i try to put manual apns but i cant save this in phone...in network search found my carrier but not conected...only with cm9 ics found network...pff...
Success?!?! It looks like we have tracked down the problem (extremely helpful input from another forum). Quick call to Vodafone and it turns out that my IMEI has been blacklisted (stolen!) Imagine my surprise - currently having a very interesting with Carphonewarehouse as to how hey managed to give me a stolen phone - should hopefully have everything resolved shortly

Very odd - when you first boot after a flash does it not ask you to select your contract type (that is the bit that automatically fills in the APN for me?)

this helped to me
Had the EXACT same issue on my Galaxy Note II for two days. My last hope was trying to restore my EFS with the EFS pro app.
Now when enabled my wifi at home and connected to my home network my sim prompted for the pin code.
Strange but I guess it was waiting for a connection (from my home wifi (not any other wifi) from a "half downloaded" app from the play store.
Anyways I'm happy this issue is resolved.
Does your phone prompt for a pincode when you start it? (mine said unable to complete download everytime it booted)
Hope this will help you guys...
Samsung Galaxy "Unable to connect. Try later" issue still remain
Hi guys,
I have the same issue with the following device:
Samsung Galaxy S3
I live in continental western Europe. Operators tried: BASE, MOBISTAR, PROXIMUS, POST.
The IMEI is correct, does not start with 00. The phone was bought from a shop, new, I have the invoice, so is legal, not stolen.
For some unknown reason, suddenly it does not want to connect to the mobile operators, any of them. I see "Emergency calls only". When I try to connect any one automatically or manually, I always get the message "Unable to connect. Try later".
The SIM card work well in another device, a Nokia C3-00. Another SIM does not work in my defective Samung S3. I sent back the device to the shop to be repaired and they gave it back to me saying it work very well, they just upgraded to the latest firmware, etc.
I am very annoyed because the device is unreliable. I have it in my pocket and do not realize it is not connected to the mobile network, I cannot be called or receive messages. Also I am unable to call.
The WIFI work well.
I tried everything, removing the SIM, inserting another, shutting down, enabling and disabling flight mode, nothing works.
But the later for some unkown reason and logic, it just work again for some time.
You guys wrote about some solution by looking in a folder, but I don't see that folder. Also you mention rooting. Does this mean cracking the phone? I do not wish to meddle with this, because I could destroy my device and I paid a lot for it. It will remove the warranty. So if you have a solution, please give a legal one.
Anyone have a hint or explanation for this strange behaviour?
Thanks a lot.
had a similar problem with galaxy core prime.
bought without a sim card and no knowledge of what network it was on.
every sim i tried was getting unable to connect error as i was trying to register on network
dont know if this will work for everyone as mine is a dual sim phone but here goes.
inserted two different sims from different providers, ee and vodafone.
reset phone to factory settings and when it booted back up, it recognised the ee sim card, went to mobile networks and network operators in settings and selected the ee network and presto, it registered ! used sim manager to select voda card and repeated selecting vodafone as carrier and it also registered straightaway
as i said none of the cards would register before on their own, but somehow this method worked for me.
hope this helps
had to set one sim to gsm only and other to autoconnect
Hi there! yesterday i finally took the plunge and installed the resurrection ics rom v. 2.5.3 (jelly bean transitions) on my S2 gt-i9100. so far everything has been working wonderfully, except that i cant connect to the mobile data network (im on sasktel btw).
i can send and recieve texts, as well as make calls, but i cannot use the internet unless im on wifi. the little H+ logo does not appear at all on the notification bar. any ideas of what may be causing this and how to fix it? thanks!!!
well, u'll have to add the acces point configuration of ur carrier (sorry for the bad translate, i think that it's not call like that, but something like so)
u need to ask to ur carrier all the parameters and add it ur self
u can find where to add them in config-->more-->mobile network names of point of acces-->menu-key-->add

You're probably missing your APN settings.

Hi all,
So my friend has a galaxy s 3 and he's not getting service so I said i'll take a look at it.
So i rooted it and changed roms and stuff and I put my sim in and add the apn settings of Giffgaff and
I got data connection H+ but then I tried to make a call and it says No mobile network phone.
I checked the imei and doesn't appear to be corrupt and I checked *#0011# and it said IMEI CERT = Pass.
So don't know what the problem is and the phone is sim unlocked .
I checked online to make sure that the phone he gave me wasn't blacklisted or anything just in case lol
Thanks!

Must be hardware failure then..If phone is not stolen/blocked different stock software doesn't work imei is intact apn settings are ok and patched modems kernels not working than all options are pointing to some sort of hardware failure.

Getting a H+ signal is different from actually getting a working data. Try to check if data is really working (browsing etc).
If there's no data even with the right APN, means the phone is probably black-listed from the carrier or you need a new (patched) modem. The right modem will solve this issue if it's not black-listed
If the data works but no phone calls, means you can try to flash stock rom and see if the problem persists.
If you were on 4.3, don't flash to 4.1.2 btw
PS: There have been a lot of refurbished/refreshed Sammy phones on the market. Their hardware issues are well known like bluetooth stops working etc etc. So if he/she got a refurb, then probably hardware issue as well.

Thanks, I can browse the internet using the mobile data connection so i can go to google and stuff but can't make calls.
I try to call the phone using my phone i get We are unable to connect to this number.
However, if it was blacklisted would I still be able to use the internet

Yes you would still be able to use the internet if it was blacklisted,I thought you had already checked to see if it was blacklisted .?

Data sometimes works even if the phone is black-listed depending on the carrier and their implementation policies. Wifi always works though.
You mentioned changing roms.
So which rom are you currently using?
More questions:
Can you try stock 4.3 for your device/carrier?
Are you using the same telcom operator (carrier)?
Is your phone carrier-locked?
Really love the Lollipop rom, but since I am on Bluegrass Celluler, when the rom is installed, the data connection doesn't work. No phone or sms or mms is available. Bluegrass uses their own roms and special data connection settings to work with Verizon towers. If any one has overcome this, I would like to know. Have googled to no end and never found an answer to get phone and sms working with custom roms with Bluegrass Cellular as the carrier. Thanks guys......
bluehrass
I feel your pain ......I too am with bluegrass and I tried several Roms on my moto x 2014. I had no service or internet either. I went back with my backup the first few times no problem then I had trouble with recovery, getting phone to see the files etc....anyway after a few days I finally got back to my original but now my cell signal is weak and data is horrible...no 4g ever and seldom even 3g....maybe I picked up the wrong baseband or modem along the way??? If anyone has any advice or a bluegrass baseband I could try it would be much appreciated ....thanks in advance.....
I have an S4 mini and it updated using Samsung Kies. After that no data connection. Bluegrass re-flashed it for me. It seems this is something they do on a regular basis. You might try that.

You Can Correct The Issue With Advanced Signal Status from the app store.
Possibly try..

CM12.1 D2VZW from download.cyanogenmod.org worked for me on PagePlus. I don't recall if BlueGrass is a provider or reseller, hear ccommercial often. At worst you will have to edit APN and or ##DATA setting. I would recommend downloading Partition Backup from Play Store by wanam. At minimum open menu and choose Backup first blocks. That makes a unbrick image for real emergencies. I would also backup your efs, modem, modemst1 and modemst2. The first time I installed CM12.1 I lost my network/serials and sound. I had the best luck with 5-17-2015 nightly, which kept my sound. Worst case you can do like others suggested and take it in store for restore. Maybe with some talking you can obtain the actual restore file.
Note : Check the ##MSL settings on bg rom and note the settings for adding into the custom rom of your choosing. Code is typically 000000,but maybe different. This is a subset of service program only available on TouchWiz/Stock roms
Hey, got the phone and sms working using Advanced Signal Status from Google Play. Thanks for your reply. The major issue I am having now is no sound at all and no mic with any Serrano Lexx Lollipop rim. I have an S4 Mini SCH-I435L.
