E5823 - Radio Band Mode setting mistake preventing all calls - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm new to the forum, and did try searching for relevant threads first, but possibly due to poor use of the search tool haven't found a solution.
I'm living in the UK and have an Xperia Z5 Compact E5823 with build number 32.4.A.1.54 which has been working wonderfully for years.
To my great regret, I was too hasty while looking around the menu found using *#*#4636#*#* and seem to have caused a serious problem with no simple solution. I was looking in Phone Information > overflow menu > Select Radio Band which brought up a box called "Set Radio Band Mode" which only had one option of "United States" which I fatefully pressed instead of backing out of that option.
Though I didn't realize it immediately, the phone now seems completely unable to make phone calls, though data is still working.
While I've never dealt with rooting before, I consider myself relatively capable when it comes to computers and technology, just haven't had the need to dig into android much before. What little I've found online seems to indicate that simple steps like a Factory Reset won't work. I'm willing to try whatever's needed in order to restore functionality, but didn't want to waste any more time or cause any more problems than I already have by trying things blindly.
I would be most appreciative of any help or thoughts about what to try to resolve this. Thanks.

Hi,
I'm pretty new to the phone, but did you already take a look at the service menu (*#*#service#*#*), particularly under "Service Info" - "Configuration" to figure out what exactly might have been set incorrectly?
Cheers,
r.

I think you should make a software repair with the tool Xperia Companion

Thanks for the input
I did look through service menu mentioned, but was unable to correct the accidently changed Radio Band Mode setting.
I tried to use Xperia Companion to perform a backup, but couldn't get it to work. I didn't try a software repair, that may have been a good solution.
I ended up performing a factory data reset, and though it was a bit of a pain to get everything setup again on my phone, it did succeed in fixing the problem with the Radio Band Mode.

Good you got it working again, though you had to take the brute-force route.
Would you mind sharing what the service menu revealed in terms of the wrong bands?

I didn't actually make any notes on the band information displayed, as I already knew my phone wasn't able to make calls. Without seeing any way of reactivating bands from that menu I moved on to other possible solutions.

[Q] Dialer issue - phone reboots when making calls

Bought the Atrix last week and unlocked it with the help from the webshop as I'm in Belgium, no problem connecting to Mobistar wich is my provider and data connections works great. But I'm having real problems making phonecalls and recieving calls; the phone reboots or the dialer hangs and it looks like a call is going on when it's not, phone still works but flashing green in the notification area and it's impossible to hang up, need to reboot. This happens like 80% of the times I try to make a call. After a reboot it works fine to call and hang-up one or two times then it crashes again.
Also noted that my Dialer often runs twice in the Running Apps manager - is that normal??
Anyone having the same issues or know what to do, reinstall the Dialer app --> if so how? Is it a hardware or software problem??
A little more info: when I recieved the device it was in a sealed Atrix box but the phone was used and already had an active Blur account so I had to do a hard reset to be able to use it... --> was it returned 'cause of faulty dialer or radio... then resold to me... not nice if so...?
Tried to install dialer one app but it seems only to skin the original dialer...
It's a greate device and works great othervice but in the end it's still a phone... which should be able to make calls...
Help
Ive got an unlocked Atrix too and now in Germany, I have the same problem. Motorola should definitely look into this.
Here's a quick fix for it thou, (not permanent)....
1. type *#*#4636#*#* on the dialer
2. Chose Phone Information
3. Set preferred network to GSM only
Viola...its fixed
problem with this fix is that you wont be able to use your 3G network but the dialer should be working.
Thanks Nazrin (for both replies) !!
It sure did the trick, though no data access is not acceptable on a phone like this!!!
So this meens that all unlocked Atrix's in european GSM networks have the same problems? Haven't seen any others reporting this and there are quite a few in use I've noted in other forums.
Was thinking of trying to have mine replaced (which probably won't be easy and take long time...) but that won't change anything then??
We have to wait for the european version of Atrix rom I suppose??
Any others with the same problem??
No problems buddy, glad it worked..and i have to agree with you..this bug is unacceptable...it seems the phone just ***** up everytime it calls on utms (3g)...im sure there is more people with this problem...
Sent from my Supercharged MOTO ATX
I have the same problem
Hi guys, I have the same exact issue (I'm also in Belgium, on Mobistar). I'm somewhat glad to hear this is a generic issue, and not an issue with my specific phone. At least I can be fairly certain replacing it won't solve this issue then.
I made another post here before I came across this one, has a bit more info: we are seeing modem panics when using 3G + outbound call. I've also contacted Motorola support to no avail:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1028771
You can also read there that I tried another operator, and it did not crash with that one (although 3G did disconnect).
Hopefully Motorola/Qualcomm will start to notice the bug when they release the phone globally, and release a fix.
Either that, or we all have phones from the same bad batch
This bug is really bad for users in europe....cant call on utms...
I really hope motorola takes this seriously cos if there's no fix via software updates then its moto gone for me
Guys, you are all on unlocked att atrix right? I do believe it is a simmiliar software glitch/bug/lock that you have porblems using it on non att networks as the problem with the wifi that it stops working for some of us (check the thread about it for more info). As all suggests there it is a config file problem, unfortunately i or anyone else doesnt know yet which one....
Yeah maybe..but funny thing is wifi is working without a glitch...will have to read that forum later...
Workaround options
So, since it seems we're not gonna get this fixed until there is a new radio/modem firmware available for flashing (and even then..), I've been looking for a workaround.
Found two potential applications that could do what we need: disable data completely when making an outgoing call, or switch to 2G:
- Sanity
- Superpower
I've tested the first (Sanity), and it does not work (fully). It does seem to disable data, but the bands aren't switched so our problem remains. I've contacted the developer here: http://tagliamonte.net/forum/thread-10.html. He seems to be very responsive, so given enough interest, I think he would add the functionality we require.
The second app I only came across today, and have not tried yet. It does not have a function to specifically switch bands when making an outgoing call, but it has a trigger for "Foreground application", so if we make that the dialer/contacts... Question remains if it will be able to do the switch.
Hopefully one of these will lead to a decent workaround for all of us!
Well done unknown...i will try these apps... but the real fix should be from moto...im always reading the net for anything that can solve this issue
reboots on incoming and outgoing calls
Same in Russia on Megafon network, I had to enter 4636 menu and use it as "GSM only". Even this does not fully solve problems, e.g. call forwarding does not show the new destination number while it does actually make the phone divert calls correctly.
My hope is that UK release will trigger new software version which will address this issue. ANYONE has news on this?
FIXED!
YAY! I just fixed this issue
What you need to do: flash the radio from this thread:

You have to use RSD-lite, since sbf_flash will not work. Flash the 1.87 baseband and enjoy working HSPA (including unlocked upload speeds ^^)
Now I can finally appreciate this phone fully

[Sorry for problem in speaking]
i had that problem too , im using CM13 with Marshmallow Version of android
So . the easy way is :
***** search "Default" in settings. then choose " System dialer" as Default ! just it ****
but if there is no search bar in your setting . try this patch:
Android 6 : Setting/Apps then click the setting icon on top(may be diffrent in your case) , then Click on "default ...." then choose " System dialer" as Default! :fingers-crossed:
but in some cases that it didnt work . they have to reinstall gapps .
Or in official Roms , reset will be usefull
any quastions?

[RESOLVED] SIM Card / EFS / IMEI Issue

Hi all. My S2 seems to have stopped recognising my SIM card, and won't display the IMEI number when I type *#06#. I think it may be related to this issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7997364
The network name is just shown as "(No service)", there is an exclamation triangle at the top left of my status bar, and a flight mode logo at the top right. Interestingly the phone is not actually in flight mode, long pressing the power button gives me the option to turn it on - but it never actually does it, it just sort of hangs in the process. Trying to access the mobile networks area of settings throws up the error "insert SIM card to access network services".
Unfortunately I have never rooted my phone, flashed or backed anything up.. so the majority of that thread doesn't really apply (or make much sense!) to me. This just started when I was putting my phone in and out of flight mode today. Based on this, what would be everybody's recommend plan of action? I found an app on the marketplace which seems to be designed to sort this out (assuming it's the issue in the thread I linked):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.helroz.GSII_Repair&hl=en
Like I say though, I've never actually rooted my phone. Do people agree it may be worth trying to root my phone for this app? I'm no longer under warranty anyway. I was also wondering about doing a factory reset - does anybody know if that would fix this issue, or does it not touch the files which are causing the issue?
Thanks in advance!
UPDATE 1 - just read that a factory reset won't do anything, so ignore that question - unless that's incorrect! Swinging towards rooting and getting busybox so I can run that app. All stuff which I know nothing about unfortunately.. I know I'll be able to find it online, but if anybody happens to have any nice easy guides, please feel free to post them here and save me some time
UPDATE 2 - fixed! Here's what I did, in case it helps anybody..
Rooted my phone using the following steps from Chainfire (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399):
- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip (these files can be downloaded from the same thread)
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar
- Put your phone in download mode
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure repartition is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)
Downloaded and used this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.helroz.GSII_Repair
Thanks to everybody who replied, and donations will be made to Chainfire and Helroz
If you've got no warranty you have nothing to lose by rooting your phone & trying the fixes, right ?
Thread stickied near the top of Q&A & the guides/tutorials stickied near the top of General have all the info you'll ever need.
Im experiencing issues with losing my IMEI for no apparent reason, but I am rooted and have efs backup so its matter of minute or two to restore it. However Would like to know why its happening...
In this post might be solution for your case considering you dont have EFS backup already...

Thanks for that link, I had seen it but was unsure because it seems to be designed for people who've flashed a custom ROM, which I haven't.. but not sure if that would make a difference?
As MistahBungle said, probably not got much to lose so I'll give rooting a try. Has been on my to-do list for a while anyway. If I can't fix it that way, is this something that a Samsung service centre would deal with, or how else would I go about this?
Another quick question - I've noticed that my battery is now draining very quickly, just since this has started happening. Battery usage shows "cell standby" as being the main culprit, 95%. I've had a search about this, I'm guessing it's to do with the fact that my phone is constantly trying to get onto a network? The time is "100% without a network signal". Seems logical to me, but I wouldn't have thought it would do that if there's no SIM inserted in the phone..? Unfortunately I still can't seem to actually put the phone fully in flight mode, despite there being a flight mode logo in the notification bar. Oh well!
EDIT - this has been resolved, don't worry about answering my questions if you stumble across this thread. Details of the fix in the first post

[Q] Lost my latest software version, how to get it back

Hi, I've been trying to sort this out for the last 24 hours with no luck and need it fixed quite urgently
I have a Sony Ericsson Play, android version 2.3.4.
The microphone on my phone is rather strange, I can call people no problem, they hear me no problem but if i try and record my voice with a voice recorder there's absolute silence. This led me to backing up all my data and restoring my phone to factory settings hoping it was a glitch that would go away - it didn't.
So i reset my phone and it seems like it has been reset to a previous update to what I had before. I'm unsure of what update I had previously but one thing that has changed is that I no longer have the Google Play store but have the rubbish old market with hardly anything on it. Also my phone doesn't detect any of the apps that are stored on my SD (they're still there the space is taken). This is rather frustrating as I use apps such as Whatsapp a lot and I'm unable to use it.
Another major factor in my issue is that I bought my phone in the UK, had the updates done there and I am now in China. I plugged in my phone and tried updating it using the Sony Companion software but it tells me this is the most recent update (which it isn't). Same thing on the phone when I try and update it in the settings. I tried using a VPN on both my phone and laptop and 'locating myself' in the UK but it still says this is the latest update.
Can anyone offer any solution or advice that could help me regain what I had before. I've been searching all over the internet trying to find a solution with no luck.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer I really appreciate. Any questions just ask. Step by step solution would be excellent

Re: Is it possible to activate LTE/4G/3G on air?

Re: Is it possible to activate LTE/4G/3G on air?
Hi all,
I'm still quite new to this forum, i'll try to put this simply.
I have lost my phone recently, htc one ul_m8, in france, and i tried to locate it on ADM. Problem is, that i deactivated my connection because i don't often use it. I checked a bit all over the place how i could activated "on air" or else, and still haven't found anything. I thought of using Airdroid 3 to be able to use my phone through my PC, but same problem, i need the 4g activated.
So my question is this:
I am aware of USSD codes that you can type in directly on the numpad to have access to various information and settings. Is there any other form of secret or no "ussd" codes that for example can be sent to the lost phone, to be able to remotely activate the connection. Or another way. But it has to be remote cause i honestly don't see any other way of accessing the phone.
I hope i was clear for most, my head is a bit scrammbled, to much precious information i was careless to not think of this beforehand. Anyway if anyone has any ideas, please reach out.
Thanks a lot

Bricked phone stuck in FastBoot

BE2026
The stock oxygen OS has a text message bug that apparently isnt fixed yet, so i thought id try a different rom.
I unlocked the bootloader, worked great.
Then i flashed TWRP and it worked great.
I then proceeded to try and flash DerpFest and when the ADB sideload (ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTIONS) was done, it is suppose to reboot into the new os. but I get nothing.
So Ive tried, a bunch of stuff. I tried using orangefox and it doesnt support SD cards and the sideload option just crashes. So then i try TWRP recovery instead of billies recovery and when i select the image to install in TWRP, and then 'swipe to flash' TWRP instantly resets. and nothing happens.
So then i tried the MSMdownloader tool and it will not recognize the phone at all. all adv and fastboot commands work great.
Can someone help me?
I tried switch A or B, and flashing both,
I tried to go back to stock and i cant even get that to work.
Help meh please, i just bought this phone and now i cant even use it
I also cannot get the MSMdownloader to work. it shows my phone on the list in EDL mode. but com port is empty. device id is empty. all the fields are empty and it just says waiting on device. nothing happens.
For MSM, did you get the driver properly installed?

everyone comes up as it should in the device manager. sad face....
Just to be sure, what do you actually SEE? IIRC it was tricky the first times I used it, until I figured everything out.
There is a separate driver from the MSM tool itself; that makes your phone show up as a Qualcomm something or other... but only for about 3 seconds! In that time, you have to start the upload. Thus, I'd have the tool RUNNING, mouse over the start button, THEN plug in phone.... when it shows up, click, and wait till it says something akin to "beginning firehose download"... then you can let go of buttons on phone, sit back, and watch the magic.
Given a proper setup, it's really odd that this fails, for anything other than a completely bricked phone (e.g. dropped it in the ocean)... if you can get into FB or recovery, you should be able to have MSM recover to stock 100%.
Hope that helps.

OH wow it did. Thank you, the documentation for that side of MSMd is vague. So after trying like 3 different "qualcomm" drivers I finally got it to work! As in the stock android 10 is loaded and the phone is no longer bricked. However, when I try the same methods again to actually put a custom rom on this phone the same thing is still happening.
No matter what OS i try to flash, no matter what mode or slot, or what recovery 'program' i use like twrp or orange FOX, nothing seems to actually boot into an OS. it just loops into Fastbook.
Can anyone help me? I dont want to use oxygenOS
I had a somewhat similar experience in loading custom ROMs, and simply took to de-bloating the stock image (emphasis on de-google-services, de-OnePlusSpyware, and de-auto-OTA). Still not really happy, compiling AOSP source now to try to swap out some of the system APKs that annoy me for customized ones. If there are only a few things that sour you to OOS, maybe I (or others) can help cure those? Debloat and replace...
I wish I had more silver bullets for you on custom ROMs, but you aren't alone. At least know that you can now go back to stock no matter how bad a ROM is... a lot of other phones, not so much.
So the main reason for me not wanting to use Oxygen OS is because when initally setting up the phone, everything works great. for about 2 or 3 days. then for what ever reason i cannot receive text messages. If I factory reset the phone, or put my simcard into another telephone all of them come rushing in.
In the event of me factory reseting my phone, ill get text messages from 3 or 4 days ago.
and it always works. as soon as my friend is texting me and i dont recieve it, i just factory reset then boom its there.
I tried everything, different SMS apps, update this, android 11 that. it always did it to me, like clockwork. like the phone installs an update and breaks text messages. I tried contacting oneplus customer support but that shhit is a joke. they told me they are aware of multiple isolated incidents about this and that the only thing to do left is to send it in. I JUST BOUGHT THIS THINg, im not about to send my device away, right after paying for it. I paid you guys $400 just to NOT have a telephone for 8-16 weeks?

See thats the thing, Ive never gotten another room, to boot. at all. no splash screen, no bootlogo nothing. it always just goes back to fastboot. it never tries to boot an OS. i follow these billie instructions and nothing happens. its the same result. I have tried all the different versions in this forum. from pixel experience to derpfest. all work great, untill the very last step where they say side load rom/flash and then reboot. your new os should be booting! and it doesnt.
Wow, that's a new one for me. I wish I knew more about the internals (slowly learning) to help troubleshoot. I would GUESS that if you can change phones (e.g. you said you can put the sim in a new phone, and get a backup of messages delivered), that it isn't so much that the phone is dropping them as it is not getting them in the first place.
With no guarantees- this is a SWAG- have you checked your APN settings? Most definitely, these come through as part of a new registration (duh), and consequently can get messed up for $diety knows why later... but at least you may be able to get a known-good set of settings (post reset, post registration) to compare to after terrorists strike and you are no longer getting messages. It should be easy to add a new APN with the "right" settings and manually select it.
If it is something like that, odds are an alternative ROM would just do the same thing; I assume there's some kind of handshake standard for initialization of the carrier network. I'm on TMo and happy to share my settings, if it helps....?

sadly this has nothing to do with my problem.
After much testing and another go round of fractory resets and then magicly i recieve texts again. There is nothing that can stop the factory oxygen OS from updating or downloading and installing some update that completely brtiks message functionality. Can someone help me maybe mod or edit the factory ROM image to prevent this?
I found out in the "google assisnt" of setting up your phone for the first time, if i set it to remind me tomorrow then im all good and i can keep using the phone. as soon as i go back to that "setup" and hit continue, the next screen says "installing updates" and then I can no longer receive texts. Does anyone know how to bypass/get rid of this auto matic update thats in the "first time run wizard for adroid" or whatever the FUCFKA its called.
Please, I really think this phone might just be a lost cause

"carrier services"? that's the only one I can think of. Try to uninstall the update, or if you don't have it in your phone, install it.
I had to go through the setup process again. First time the DF just didn't catch. I read ADB sideload can be broken as **** sometimes.

The phone breaks as soon as I go back to the "Google Assisnt" -Setting up your phone for the first time- wizard and instead of selecting "Remind me tomorrow" i select next, and then the following screen says "Installing updates" and then the telephone will no longer recieve text messages. Does anyone have any help?
Oneplus customer service is terrible and they told me to buy another device.
This is the last phone i will ever purchase from them
