Hello there, this is my first time posting here.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 edge (SM-G925I) (TTT Firmware). After updating it to Marshmallow, the phone worked well.
Suddenly, one day, I can't connect to network, can't make calls and can't even connect to 4G/3G/2G.
I am aware of the solutions that have been already posted as:
-Search automatically for network
-Flash Stock ROM Firmware from Sammobile
-Backup/Restore EFS
IMEI and Serial Numbers seem to be the same as on the back of the phone and the phone recognizes the SIM as it shows contacts.
I have already sent it once for repair to some guy, and the phone came with a Movistar ROM 5.1.1 (OJ6), which I didn't like, but surprisingly the Network worked.
I decided to flash my stock firmware, as I didn't want to be stuck in Lollipop, but now the network won't work again.
I would appreciate your help on how to fix this. I have been able to root Marshmallow successfully and I am ready to apply a solution.

I apologize for not mentioning earlier, but it perhaps isn't a hardware issue, as my SIM works on other phones, as other SIMs won't connect in mine.
What is the OS version you are running now?

Currently Android 6.0.1 MM. I flashed 5.1.1 to test before, but no luck.
Would suggest you to switch to MM. And also to go to service center to fix up the device. It might be a hardware issue. Also tell the service center guys you need MM on this and not Lollypop
mine G925I only works on LTE only mode.
cant able to call.

Hi. A old newbie here with a big problem, not solved by a lot of time lapsed, forum topics etc..
I have a SGS I9300.. Just got it a few weeks ago (2nd hand). Everything was fine, battery drains fast but doesn't matter now.
It had an modified TouchWiz rom which after a wipe data/cache still had SuperSU and I didn't like it.
I had a old stock ROM in my PC (from my old I9300, which worked fine 1 year ago, 4.3 Romania -Orange). I flashed it through ODIN but the problem is that I have signal bars, I can choose between HSDPA/GSM connections, I can register to any network but in my carrier it says The selected Network (RO ORANGE) is not disponible or smth like that.
I went to a GSM Service, they made it work but I didn't like that modified ROM, I want a Full Official Stock TouchWiz ROM for my old S3.
I paid a lot, I don't want to go once again to repair it. IMEI and S/N are good. When I received it from Service, it had USB Debugging ON. I think Z3X will solve this but I think it's not free to register..

Good luck!
Sounds like your phone has modified/damaged efs and must have patched modem and kernel to use a stock firmware.
Take it back to the GSM Service and ask them to repair the efs properly, so it works on 4.3 without patches.

Hm, I tried a lot of things to repair it, but I did worse. The IMEI became generic (0049), the S/N was modified.
After a lot of time lost, looking on XDA, YouTube, trying to repair it... I found that the only viable solution was to go with it at a GSM Service. You can't modify or repair your IMEI without a box (z3x). I finally managed to fix it for just 9$ ( I was thinking to buy a new motherboard -> 50$ )
Thanks for your reply

I have the same problem. The IMEI and SN are good, but I can't call. I was on CM11 before and then I put phone accidentally in flight mode and flashed Blekota v11. Was not able to make calls anymore. Then I used ODIN to flash back to a Stock rom what I wanted to do in the first place. But still no change. Do I need to flash a different Baseband version?
Please help me, what can I do?

Yes you can flash different modems, a lot of people solved the problem with XXEMG4 modem, but in my case.. Nothing seemed to work.
I have again the same problem, IMEI and S/N are good, Emergency calls only. I think i have EFS V1 but my rom is fully working with EFS V2.
You should better go to a GSM Service and see what you can do with yours, don't try because you can lose your IMEI and S/N and then the single solution is to repair N/V data IMEI and S/N with Z3X box at a service.
Thanks, it worked with the patched modem and kernel. I used this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/guide-emergency-calls-problem-siii-i9300-t2752541

Good night, I have a galaxy s6 edge 925i, and after some time using it my operator blocked his imei (only in my operator, in the other of brazil it worked perfectly), I took the device in a assist and changed the imei of the device , I wonder if I can upgrade the phone to android 7.0, I am currently in 5.1.
And what procedure should I take in case it is possible to update it without it's problem with the imei again?
Thank you all for helping me.

Hello . How the imei changed in first place?
If im not wrong... G925I Nougat update rolled out only for India flagship devices yet...
You can flash it or wait for official Region/ Carier you have at the moment!
But you said your device is on 5.1 speaking at the moment...
You should be on 6.0.1
Or you just didn't update it?
Flashing stock firmware via Odin is safe and you won't loose your imei
But you can make a back up of it!

Reading his poll...
I understood that his imei was blacklisted by operators of the SIM he used...
But still doesn't make sense...

What do you mean ?
hi,
I dont know why i having this network issue.
I flashed lineage os8.1 on my phone and my sim isn't getting any signals. Yep o tried to wait for more than 2 hours, yep i tried different locations, yep my sim is working on other devices, yep i tried to put a different sim but all that didn't work. Mind you my wifi, gps, Bluetooth etc all are working. I tried to flash modem 1 and 2 with non-hlos etc but that didn't work either. So decided to flash stock firmware. Mind you i was on December security patch 2017, meaning having bootloader version 91.08. But since indian firmware flash file is 6.0.1, it won't be compatible, as the bootloader version cant be downgraded. So to get stock firmware back and running i decided to flash RETUS retail version. That firmware did have bootloader v91.08. But unfortunately, I'm getting bootloader remote failure errors, and phone gets into a bootloop. Then i decided to flash RETCN firmware. That did work, my phone is up and running but then again that my sim isn't showing ant signals. I tried with different sims. and dont know what to do.
Oh and one more thing, my imei is visible.
Please help me with this weird sim signal issue.

Definitely you have flashed other region firmware with its own NON-HLOS.bi. so the solution is this that you have to flashed your own region firmware according to your bootloader version.

Yes my brother I also having the same problem. My device is also retin and I also had flash the same retus firmware in my device. Because there is no firmware available for India. The thing is go to the authorised Moto service centre and asked them to update your phone. Do not say about baseband ,even if you say they are going to do but they don't know what is baseband, so they will deny that bootloader is unlocked. Or wait for the Oreo update. It will fix up everything because it comes with everything updated. Only and only if you have retin software channel. But by the way can you tell me your baseband version."it is important to know for me and for you". You can check it out by seeing in about phone.

The only thing which will work here is FLASH ANY CUSTOM ROM because no one can fix your problem. Not even Motorola.
And you will be surprised that I am the only one who solved this problem with stock rom. And dude it took a whole month.

Hello
I got this tablet SM-T225 and used it with T Mobile in the US, but the data stops working a lot. some times it shows 4G on the notification but no internet, other times it shows "E" in place of "4G" and very very slow internet or no internet. I tried moving to different location but the same problem, some times work and other times doesn't while the phone and my other tablets work normally. the WIFI works without a problem.
the tablet had CSC CHO and the service provider software version showing OWO CHO
the tablet is rooted and bootloader unlocked.
my questions
is it a tablet problem or this model doesn't work reliably in the us?
or it needs to be flashed with different firmware?
thanks

Seem bootloader ok , firmware ok, try to clean flash with stock.
But now where are you? Chile or US. If live in us why not installed US firmware Region.?
I am in the US and this model is not used in the states by any provider, no firmware for it in US as far as I know https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-T225
I flashed it before with stock firmware (CHO) after I flashed it with magisk patched boot loader but same problem, I will give it another try now. at first when I flashed it with magisk I used in the in the CSC slot HOME_CSC_OWO_ but later I used CSC_OWO_ if that matters.
unfortunately after flashing stock firmware https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-T225/CHO/T225XXU1BVGB same problem.
I have this tablet in the USA on att post paid with a "phone" based sim. It can txt via the native mssgs app or Google messages. It won't make phone calls via the native app. Voip calls over Google voice will work.
Also tmobile sells this tablet as a the sm-t227 and it works fully ont their network

Can't used sm-t225 with your provider. Sorry
I am aware that the 227 is used by T Mobile, but I read a comment on XDA that the Bootloader of 227 used in the US is not unlockable and I went with the 225 to be able to unlock the bootloader
I am returning.
I appear to have basically the same issue. I cqn send texts but mobile data just does not register. I have model T227u that was sold through Fido in canada. I hqve a 12 gb data plan and everything works fine on a phone. (I also have a note 9 that is starting to crap out.)
It is running android 13 and is rooted with magisk 26.1 patched boot img
solution for this issue is to just Flash one of the SM-T225 official firmwares for T-Mobile Europe. (I switched it to using the Poland (T-Mobile) - TPL version. T225XXS2CWA6

Now, that IS interesting, particularly if that conclusion applies to every "unlocked" version of T225 sold in the Western Hemisphere. Mine was sold by Amazon's on line from store, specifically advertised to work as phone etc. Been trying to solve by GSI, twrp root for a while. Getting an "involuntary" refund from Amazon so it's worth trying.
