begging for help..nI sim error. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

So I rooted my 900T FOL last night with cf_autorotate for foj, it worked fine, everything was awesome. Around noon today I get a 'sim not inserted' error. I flashed a stock firm, still nothinf. I put in another tmobile working sim, same thing so it's gotta be a software issue. I use this phone for a lot of shyt so I need it working...any help would be greatly appreciated.Oh, I just noticed something weird as hell..the minuts I put in the sim, my phone won't charge when it's off, nor will it turn on if it's plugged in, i have the unplug it and pull the batteryear than it will turn on... It's the official charger

Might try to Odin the latest firmware with Sim removed..

No sim??

After restart my phone this morning I can't use my phone anymore because I get "no sim". The unlock slide thing is not there, just the screen with no sim. After a while the phone starts up normally and I can use internet and everything. But I can't make phone calls or send sms, which is quite handy with a mobile phone. I already flashed using seus, with no result. Also tried to use another sim card. I really don't understand what happened...
Also I restarted now 2 times and the battery level dropped from 100% to 63% within 8 minutes!

com.android.phone problem

Evertime I startup my phone with wifi on, the com.android.phone process crashes. I'm not able to connect to mobile network or enter my sim pin. If I boot the phone without wifi enabled, it boots normally. I've tried several factory resets, but the problem is still there. I've also tried changing simcard.
Anyone else with this problem, suggestions? I'm afraid I'll have to return it for repair/exchange.
Btw this is a XT910, european version.

Yup I sometimes have the same issue, but not all the time. I just normally reboot and its sorted. Bit of a pain but not a major issue to me and since I installed the update its not happened yet. UK unbranded handset

update? is that the one mentioned in the dev forums? Any idea if its going to be pushed over the air or is it only available via manual update?
(sorry to hijack, I also get this issue but rather than rebooting I go into the mobile network settings and just get it to scan for cellular networks and it usually comes back)
Yep, the leaked OTA update for the GSM RAZR in the dev forums does fix this issue - at least, it has for me so far. Also fixed a bunch of others I had.

cool.. any idea when its coming officially?
Your guess is as good as mine. Didn't initially sit too well with me since we don't have a shipped ROM to flash back to, but I figure, when an official OTA does hit, we can just flash it over this one.

ok, no worries.. will wait patiently with fingers crossed .. Phone working ok apart from a few quirks and at least we know there's at least some update out there (which hopefully moto won't scrap)

Had the same issue. Restarting without the wifi solved the problem. Thanks for the tip. Looking forward for an official fix!
Try clear data of phone app. It should solve the issue. If not. Creat a back up then factory reset.
I wgot this problem when update the phone and this way help.

Tank you ianford10, rebooted with wifi off and it works well...
Hoping in a fast update, I turn off the phone quite often to reset it...
If you don't care much about your settings you can always do a full wipe. It worked in my case. Kind of painful but you'll get a working wifi. You can always use some backup software (ex. Titanium Backup) to save your texts, settings etc.
I have this too. But it coz I install MotoHomeFix.app. After I uninstal it, my razr back to normal.

Razr won't boot

Brand new and stock. Turned it on to activate and turned it off to charge overnight. Stuck on Droid eye animation now and I've rebooted 3-4 times with power + vol down. Any thoughts?

With sim out it'll boot. What a crock

Strange... Are you using a proper microsim or have you cut a normal sim to microsim?
micro it came with. Original boot and activation went fine but after shutting off and charging it all went to hell.

Do you have another sim to test it. Maybe the problem is your sim. You could also try a factory reset or reflash the firmware via fastboot. if all fails go to your carrier and ask for support / return the phone.

[Q] Mobile Network Connection Problems

Alright, here I go.
Yes, I searched the forum, and I can't wrap my head around this at all, so I'm just going to throw my specs out and hope for the best.
- T-mobile Samsung Vibrant Galaxy S T-959
- NOT unlocked...although I'm not sure, the phone seems to try and pick up AT&T but it's labeled as a Tmobile phone
- Using a Tmobile SIM (brand new replacement, works on other phones just fine)
- Rooted and Flashed to Hellybean Stable 15.11.12
- Generic IMEI (004999010640000)
Whenever I rebooted the phone after root/flash a week and a half ago, it would give me the IMEI mismatch warning but everything worked fine. It was only this afternoon that I jumped on the bus, took out my phone, and suddenly could not connect to any mobile network at all. I've restarted and cried and sat in a corner and now I don't know. It connects to Wifi just fine and that's how I've been getting by, but it'd be nice to text/sms again...
I kept running into this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30644270&postcount=116
But it makes no sense to me. Copy it to what folder? Where is /efs? I only have one /efs folder and it's in /sdcard/backup.
Before I return to stock and try to flash all over again, I want to try and fix this.
The same thing happened to me today!
I don't know what is going on. I flashed another modem but the problem is not solved.
I'll try Odin back to stock but it is not seeing my phone. That's another problem anyway.
I'll let you know if I get it to work.
Ok, it works now, but I still don't know if it was the generic IMEI or something else.
I went back to stock and it automatically connected so I could make calls and use internet. This also restored my IMEI
Then I rooted and installed CM7 and then Slim Bean and now everything works as usual with my restored IMEI.

Ahh shucks. Don't want to hijack your thread, but now my Vibrant is having connection problems too :crying:
It all happened when I let a friend borrow my phone to use his SIM card. It was a simple mobile SIM card and a day later when I tried to make a call, I got a "not registered on network" when I tried to make a call.
I was running bionix-v fishman so I odined back to stock to make sure it wasnt a ROM issue, and still have the same problems.
I still have a IMEI working and I can still get bars, but cant make any calls whatsoever. Not even emergency calls.
So back to my very old Motorola Backflip. But I can't seem to wonder how this happened when my friend used his sim card. So I know the problem is not my SIM card because it works on my older phone.
I'm still using the very old full SIM-card that is at least 2-years old and not the newer ones. Because my friend's SIM was brand new, you think that may have to do its the problem?
Any help appreciated. Heres a similar thread to my problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890353
Okay, this went from bad to worse to a nightmare.
My friend tried the Odin then back to Hellybean for me, and nothing changed at all.
So I went into recovery mode and tried to restore from an old system restore point.
After loading that my phone was permanently stuck on the Vibrant SAMSUNG screen.
I hunted around and found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15330252
After a few tries I managed to get it into download mode and tried it, nothing changed.
Except now that I've moved on and tried to use Odin to just unroot it won't even go into recovery or download mode, it gets stuck on this screen:

or just the Vibrant start screen.

OK I'm going to use ur thread. I rooted my sgs1 seven hours after I got it. When it was a new phone. Have been running all kinds of roms. Somewhere along the line I lost my backup. But it was never really a problem. My imei is generic and couldn't make 911 calls but no worries there. I was running 4.2.2 something something using my phone. Then my battery was running low so I switched it with another and when it booted up no signal from that point on. I put my sim in my old g1 and it works. Put my wife's sim in my phone and a no go. Everything works wifi Bluetooth usb .....except won't connect to t mobile. I Odin back to stock and no luck. Imei still generic. Called tmobile no help at all. Funny thing is though it won't let me connect it shows I have a voicemail so its sending a signal and receiving one. I think if I had a way to put a new imei on it I would be OK. Another funny thing is my imei is the same number as the one posted above. So thinking it got picked up and blocked and that's why i m not getting service. I love this phone and would like to fix it if I can.does anyone have any ideas.

Selected Network Unavailable after battery drain

Hi
Yesterday, my phone was working fine. The battery was on 1% so I plugged it in to charge. I taken it off charge and turned it on, and was greeted by the no signal icon. Then, signal came back but read "emergency calls only." Now, I can't connect to my network. I tried a Vodafone sim in it and it worked OK, but two Three sims failed to work. I tried my dad's and mine. The funny thing is, my sim works in my dads phone, as does his. So by all accounts it looks as though three had blocked my phone from their network, even though it's pay as you go. I phoned them but they told me they haven't blocked it and it should work OK. I haven't touched anything on it, I just charged it.
Do any of you guys have any idea what could be wrong? I thought maybe the hardware had failed, but like I say it connected to vodafone so this seems impossible.
I'm seriously puzzled. I've tried recovering the firmware through Kies to no avail.
I'm at my wits end. Thanks!
Might be sim lock, was the phone originally locked to vodaphone?
