I have a G3 that I use for my riftcat setup and I no longer have it in service because it stopped reading sim cards. Long story short I want to connect my phone via USB tethering to this app, but I can't turn it on because I don't have a sim card. Is there a way for me to turn on USB tethering without a sim card? Like a with a different rom or app for example. It's rooted and has a recovery installed.
Thanks

You cannot usb tether without sim card. Since you're rooted, install a newer version of bootstack. (35b for Verizon lg g3) and/or factory reset​.
If you're running a custom rom, then go to dialler and dial *#*#4646#*#*, then go to phone info and choose LTE or wcdma or gsm (depending on your sim).
Well I I took my board and reworked the SoC and now my sim card is working again even though it's not activated any more. I installed the new lineage rom and I can tether my USB now.

Hi all,
My friend attempted to unlock her X10i (not sure how), but basically although the phone boots past the SE logo, it sits on a blank screen with a cross through the network icon when any SIM is inserted.
I have flashed back (various ROMS) with SEflasher and now have the full menu, but it still wont recognise a SIM card. Is there a way to rectify this?
I get the message no SIM recognised when trying to use SETool, so I suspect its screwed something up.
Any Ideas to recover connectivity?
Thanks in advance.

Can you still make any calls? Did you try to? In your network setting can you select your carrier?
Try to go in your APN setting and set them manually. Google your carrier APN setting and input all of them. I am in Rogers and i got around 5 of them for calling, internet, SMS, MMS, etc.
When done put your phone in Plane mode, wait a bit and put on 3G or wtv you use. See if it works. If not set them up and restart the phone.
You can also use this program: APN Backup&Restore. If you can roll back to a rom where it works or if a friend has Droid phone and is on the same network, install the app there, run it and backup the APN settings.
Then install that same app on your phone via FlashTool and put the backed-up file on your phone (SD Card) and use that app to restore the APN settings.
See if that works. I had a problem where i didnt have internet connection but could still make calls, use that manual setup/app and it worked for me.
Let me know if it works.

check baseband plz !!! which method did u follow to unlock ur x10????
she messed up the service menu of the sim which only telecom operators should use. sadly, now she gotta get a new sim card.
I had my S2 unlocked via software while I was abroad to use the local SIM card - the person who did it couldn't unlock it, first blaming the phone as rooted and then hardware as damaged. Instead they made it worse, the phone doesn't connect to any network, whatever SIM card I use. At the time I was using a rooted custom ROM (Rootbox) v4.2.
I found if I use a stock ROM, even if rooted, it connects to phone networks and is unlocked to any SIM card. As you may know, the S2 can only upgrade to v4.1.2 if stock.
I have been going around in circles trying different kernels and ROMs. I would rather use v4.2 than stick with v4.1.2... Rootbox v4.2 used to work fine before trying to unlock the phone.
I have used the 'GalaxSim Unlock' app, in case the unlock process was only partial. I also tried to find if I could relock the phone back to the original network, by removing the EFS folder.
Does anyone know why this is happening? Thank you in advance.
Phone was originally SIM locked to T-Mobile.
Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?
Or has had it happen to them in the past?
The IMEI number is still intact.
Hello,
My phones battery was dead and when i rebooted my phone wifi and sim networks were not working. Then i tried to format the phone but it didn't let me do it because it cannot connect to internet hence i wiped out the data using combination of keys.
But still wifi and sim slots are not working and Le2 don't let me go inside the phone without login into the account which is not possible as no wifi and sim slot and now i am in deep trouble as i don't think usb debugging and oem are enabled. So not sure how to flash the device.
Is there is any way to solve this problem? I came across the similar thread on forum but couldn't find the steps to fix the issue.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thanks,
Ashutosh
-Lineage OS=doesn't work (booted up fine, but no data or calling. We COULD see "Verizon" network listed, but SIM refused to link. Also tried putting in manual APN settings, but Lineage OS refused to save them)
-Mokee 8.1=doesn't work (booted up fine, but couldn't read SIM card)
-Dirty Unicorns=doesn't work (booted up fine, but couldn't read SIM card)
-AOSiP=doesn't work (Upon start-up, WiFi wasn't working (IP & MAC address "unavailable"), SIM Card Not Found and no Mobile Network options (all grayed out)
Surprised a developer hasn't found away around these simple APN settings...
UPDATE: Get Verizon to run on Sprint Variant:
Follow these steps!

Please let us know if you know a work around this...thanks!
The only work around is junking the VZW Sim cuz they don't support custom Development. In fact, they go outta their way to prevent it.

Know of a way we can use custom software and stay on the Verizon network using a Sprint Moto z2 Force?

Did you wipe everything before you flashed?
Samsung S4 Lineage 14.1 no Network internet or email access

Hi, I tried to delete my post since I thought I already had my answer.
But anyway, I bought the phone unlocked with Lineage already installed.
And it worked great for a week with my SIM card from my OEM AT&T S4 phone that developed problems.
Then the Linage phone lost Network access, so no internet or email etc unless connected to WiFi.
But even though it "shows" Access to the AT&T Network, phone still only has phone calls and text access.
I called AT&T and their Tech tried to fix the Network connection .. but failed.
Then, according to them, my SIM card is not compatible with my phone and sending me a new SIM card that "should" be compatible.
My thoughts are why it was working fine with my SIM for a week, but now it's not.
And if I activate the New SIM and that doesn't help, my Original one will have been de-activated.
UPDATE:
Received new SIM card and after activating it, still no Network access when not on WiFi.
Then spent hours with Tech support while they accessed the phone trying to get Network access when not on WiFi.
They put a Ticket in and get back to me if they find a way to fix it.
So after all that, I put the new SIM back in the Original Phone with Touch wiz problems and everything works even though Touch wiz is still messed up.
Not sure what changed with the Lineage os phone, if anything, or if it has something to do with the Lineage os itself.
Thanks in advance for any info.
