Hello!
ive received my Truesmart today, ive ordered the EU 2100Mhz 1Gb/8GB Version Dev. Edition. I inserted the Micro Sim and the System recognizes that there is a sim and show me the input fields for the pin. Ive typed the pin several times and tried to unlock the sim, but nothing happens, no error wrong pin or something... it just happen nothing!
does anyone have a idea wtf this is?
I am thinking this might be due to you needing a correct APN setting set for your carrier.

sarcasim is a good thing but maybe you aren't comprehending what i am saying duhh!!
i own NSPRO box and have unlocked the galaxy S phones quite frequently, the phone is sim unlocked for any sim card or gsm carrier, what i am saying has nothing to do with unlocking with the sim card in( which i tried for ****s and giggles). the problem is the vibrant is not recognized on the network , i have tried my sim and several other t-mobile sims the phone doedn't receive signal on t-mobile network or simple mobile( which is a NVO of t-mobile)so what i am asking is does t-mobile block imei's from their network and is their a solution other then changing imei of the phone which i do not wish to do although i can change imei i will not since it is illegal.
the problem
let me clarify it actually says on the screen
"not registered on network"
anyway to register it on system???
its unlocked and works on at&t, h2o and all other gsm carriers except t-mobile and simple mobile
clone another imei, that will solve this problem, There is an app that allows you to give you a new I D # to your phone
I am same problem here everytime try to make call it says "Not Registered on the Network", SIM card works fine on different phone, also other SIM when inserted on Vibrant gives same message.
Under Settings> Wireless> Mobile network settings does not allow access...
Can someone help resolve this situation.
Thanks,
I am also
having the same problem. I purchased a used Vibrant from my friend whom defaulted on his bill so he sold his phone to me. When I attempt to use the T Mobile prepaid SIM or a regular T Mobile SIM it will not allow me to connect to the network. It stays on (Searching) or (No Service) but the date and time updates so I know it is connecting, just not able to use the network. Is there anyway to get around this problem or do I need to root and unlock to go to another carrier?
Hi guys I am having similar issue, please help
I was using bionix 1.3.1 by team whiskey, whats your advice do I change to ICS, will that solve the problem or simple radio upgrade will solve the matter? I have gone through several sites and found that this problem is with many android mobiles since last 2-3 years. Is there no solution to this yet! I have tried Airplane mode, removing battery, downloading autocut and all those basic methods but to no help ...
I have the same problem, did anybody find a solution?
I tried everything, flashed to stock, GB, ICS, JB.
My phone is unlocked and it only works on AT&T, the sim card is good, as I'm using it on my backup phone.

Same here. This all happened when I let my friend borrow my phone to put his SIM on it. It was a prepaid Simple Mobile SIM. It didn't work but after I went to put my SIM card back into my Vibrant, the phone never got service.
Funny thing is, my SIM works on one of my older phones, so I know the SIM still works, but my Vibe gets messages like "out of service" and "not registered on network" even through it still has some bars.
I think the problems relates to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37703090#post37703090
Somehow the bands on your device is messed up so you never get a signal. Not sure how to fix it but any solutions would be great.
All of sudden, my phone does not detect the SIM card anymore. I inserted another good SIM card, and get the same error. I tried to press the SIM card to ensure good contact, but not working. No problem with other function. I inspected the SIM card slot and it appears perfect. The phone has never been dropped or having liquid damage.
I did the factory reset, but could not get rid of the error. Unfortunately I just travelled to oversea...
AT&T agreed to replace the phone, but I will not have any phone on the road.
I am willing to try anything. Does not seem to be software related, but...
Anyone know how to fix the problem?
Thanks.
Hey. There us a thread about this just search for it... don't think they found a solution
Did this happen while your sim was still in the phone or after a removal and replace?

My 1717D stpped working too when I installed T-Mobile radio
I bought 1717D with Android 4.o.4 on it , Kernel 3.0.8-perf-1717DTLLF4-CL793911 and tryed to install T-Mobile modem to work with Mobilicity.Ufter this update phone doesnt recognize my SIM card any more.I Tryed all 3 modems with the same results, even though I did changed modem on two previous 1717 phones before.They were with 3.3.5. I thing The problem is in Gingrbred rom this pfone has.Where can I get original Yelus factory Rom ?One more thing is strange: it doesn't show any IMEI ,Baseband shows Unknown.
The phone has ics 4.0.4. I inserted a foreign sim card while traveling abroad and found "no sim" error. Then i switched back to the att sim and found with the same error. I shall say i always use the foreign sim while oversea and never had problem with this phone before. And i always power down, remove battery and then replace sim card.
I reflashed the ics radio and still no good. I can see the imei number in setting. But the baseband is unknown. I read almost all related posts and could not find a software fix.

"No SIM" just happened to me. I recently updated to the official JB stock ROM & Note worked great for about ten days... then just quit and displayed the "No SIM" error message. I first tried just shutting down, removing & cleaning SIM, replacing & rebooting. Nada. Then tried different, fully charged battery. Still no go. Still at home tried a factory reset, removing SIM, clean, & reboot. Gave up and went to an AT&T kiosk. Rep set me up with a new SIM and I'm back in business for two days now. Rep was quite philosophical, "it happens sometime." Still don't know why.
About a week ago when I tried to use my phone it said no SIM card inserted. The SIM was in and unlocked as I had used the phone about an hour before without any problem. I rebooted the phone but still it said no SIM so I powered off, removed the SIM, cleaned it and tried again. Well after about an hour of messing around the phone started working normally again. I didn't do anything more about it and wrote it off as a glitch.
I woke up this morning looked at my phone at it was asking for my PUK unlock code. It seems as though the phone must have rebooted overnight or something and now it's asking for a PUK. Why would it do that? I can't unlock it as my copy of the PUK code has worn so I cannot see all the numbers any more so I'll have to go to my network provider.
My question what could be wrong with the phone that is starting to not recognise the SIM? The issue last week must have been a prelude to this and it's pointing to something failing in the hardware. Any ideas what can be causing this?
Did you flash any ROMs or Kernels? Because that may be the problem usually.

Please give more informationhone Model,Kernel,ROM...
Sorry should have given more information about the phone.
It's a UK GT-I9100 model running stock 2.3.4. I haven't flashed any Roms since updating to 2.3.4 over a year ago. I've been holding out for the UK Jellybean which I've just downloaded ready to go once I sort out this problem.
I think I read somewhere that moisture on the usb port may cause this problem but I can't find that any more and I'm not sure if I'm remembering it correctly either. Although, my phone has never been submerged or even got wet in the rain so I don't think it's moisture.
I just tried putting another SIM into the phone and it works fine. As soon as I put my SIM back in it asks for the PUK. I guess I'll need to go speak to my network provider. Would still like to know why I started having these SIM problems.

Dude,I think your SIM card got blocked.Go to your carrer provider,and ask them to unblock it
I went to my network provider and got the PUK and unlocked the SIM. I asked if they had blocked it or if had been blocked and they said no. They said I must have entered the SIM pin incorrectly which isn't the case as the phone was one and the SIM unlocked before I went to sleep. I put it into flight mode and the next morning when I looked at the phone it was asking for the PUK. That with the previous issue where the SIM wasn't being recognised points to something not quite right either with the hardware or software.
I'm going to be updating to 4.2.1 no that the UK version is available and see if the problems still continue.
Hey everyone,
I am an owner of a G3 but I switched my mobile service provider recently. When the new SIM card arrived I switched them but my G3 did not accept / see the new SIM card and there was no possibility to type in my PIN. I ordered a new SIM but the problem remained with the new SIM card. So I tried a lot of other (working) SIM cards from different other service providers but also no luck. So I thought maybe the phone has SIM lock and I tried another SIM card from my old provider but it also did not work.
The weird thing is that when I put in my old SIM card the phone appears to be accepting the SIM card. The PIN prompt appears normally, I can type it in, the phone accepts. There is just no reception which is normal because I switched the service provider. I also tried a factory reset, also no luck. The phone was rooted but I unrooted and resetted it. Is it possible that I broke something because of root?
Other than this problem the phone works perfectly. Has someone an idea or some experience with a similar issue and knows if it is possible that a phone accepts only one SIM card?
I have no idea what the cause of the problem could be and I am really running out of ideas ...
I would be very thankful for any ideas or suggestions!
Thanks,
Patrick
Or did maybe someone have a similar experience with a different phone?
Thanks!

Hi again,
I tried some more things but still nothing helped.
The things I tried were:
- unrooting the phone and factory reset
- reflash radios
- try completely diffrent rom (CM)
Still I have no idea what the cause could be. Maybe the sim card reader is just broken. Just weird that it reads my deactivated sim card.
I would really appreciate it if someone has an idea or some similar experience..
Thanks!
Hi, I have a galaxy s9+ 965F and I was running a T-Mobile sim, the phone was working fine for about a week now all of a sudden when I boot the phone up it's saying invalid Sim please enter code PUK. Can anyone enlighten me on what happened to my phone and is there anything I can do to get it back working? I've called T-Mobile and they gave me the PUK but it doesn't accept it, I've called samsung and they send me right back to TMobile.

Try seeing if the sim card isn't seated correctly. You can do this easily... Power off the phone, remove the sim card tray and making sure it's in the tray correctly. Then reinsert the sim card try and power on the phone.
If that doesn't help then for what ever reason the phone became sim locked, so you need to contact the carrier whom the phone came from and ask them for the code.
T-Mobile won't be able to give you that code unless the phone came from them. I would be careful not to enter the incorrect PUK code in to many times in case it ends doing some sort of hard lock or disables the sim card.
