Did it work at all some time, or is it that you cannot use the from since you got the device at all?

It close? What close? The telephone application? Or what?

Open what? The battery cover? When you remove the battery cover the device automatically switches off (soft reset).
You should get all your personal data from the phone (backup or something) and do a hard reset. This is done by putting the style into the reset hole while holding down the Power-Button (upper right corner next to the stylus hole) at the same time. Then it might work again, because that is setting it back to factory settings (well, almost). A soft reset is just a restart. If your configuration is in some way faulty it will just restart with the faulty config. With a hard reset it will wipe the faulty config also.
Most probably your SIM card is damaged. Try your SIM card in another unlocked phone and if you mini is not locked try another SIM card on your mini.

Thank you for the interest.
I will try to explain all the above.
My phone worked properly , but suddenly one day, it stop to work!
It try to make a connection with my provider and it couldn't
When i say "it close" i mean that it close. A black screan. I try to open by holding down a power-button (the button to the right of the phone) and it make a soft-reset!!!! Amazing!!! And when after a few minutes it's open, and try to find aprovider, it close again. Black screen!!!!
That's why i say that i have a very serious problem.
I try to unlock again, with the software that found here, but the problem not solve.
Thank you again

Hi re patrida...
Why don`t you try to upgrade the ROM of your Magician?
Try some other ROMs than the one that you are using right now...
And if it works, "don`t tell it even to the priest"!
:lol: :lol: :lol:

Perhaps the phone was reported stolen and the IMEI has been blocked.
I'm not sure what would happen if that was the case but it worked one day and stopped working suddenly.

Kalhspera patrida...
Ihave download all the files that must be have to upgrade the ROM to english version, but after that, I stop.
I afraid to made any change to to phone in this time.
Do you know, if I will want some help, how could I make the upgrade?
Thank you, patrida
Upgrade instructions are to be found here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade
Pls don't try a Greek rom, it won't work on a magician which isn't bought from a Greek provider.
Hope it helps you solve your nast problem.
Cheers, M
Anyone else had this 'Invalid or missing SIM card' message appear on screen or is it just happening to me?
Can't make calls when it appears and sometimes taking the battery out and restarting helps... but right now... I can't get rid of it!
Have called Orange and they keep telling me to ring them when it happens but havn't offered any solution apart from switch the phone band to GSM and see how that works... yeah its the same regardless.
I'm going around in circles on this one, anyone know anything??
I had similiar problems a while back and at the end, I changed to a new sim card and the problem is gone...
Hmm had a new SIM and a replacement handset already!!
Its really odd, it happened this afternoon for about 20 mins, very frustrating when you actually really need to make a call!

I have the similar problem. I replaced my SIm for a new one.
Did u find a solution to this problem?
Hi people,
My first post and unfortunately for a big problem...
I entered into a subway this morning and lost the sign (normal, of course) but now more than 10 hours later I still have no service, it shows the antenna and a ! next to it only.
I have tried the following:
- On commanager, The flight mode is NOT ON and the phone mode IS ON.
- Soft reset
- Hard Reset
- Tested the SIM card in a different cellphone, works OK.
- Tested a different SIM card into my P3600, no service.
It can't even find the a network when I set it to manual.
Please, any help can be useful...
thanks!
Claudio Henrique
try coming out of the subway
but seriously it sounds like it's knackered. Could try re-flashing the firmware.
another thought. Have you tried a sim card of a different mobile operator in the 3600 ?
Yes yes, lol, I forgot to tell that I came out of the subway...
Anyway, I think all I can do now is try reflashing. I have the original ROM 1.15.405.5...
I have just finished the reflashing and after all I still having the same problem... no phone service... My SIM card is working fine when I test it in my old motorola phone...
Anyone else have an idea??
thanks...

It really sounds like you've been methodical and covered all the possibilities. I hate to say it, but it may be time for the service center or retailer if they would take it back. The good thing is that you got your original ROM back on the thing so they can't complain about that. Good luck.
have you tried a different network operators sim card in the phone?
the phone's imei could have been barred from your current operator.
Yes, I have tried a SIM card from a different carrier, didn't work.
I'm sending it tomorrow to Teleservice in Germany (is it a good repair company?) to fix it up, let's see what happens.
Thanks guys!
good luck.
Hi guys, I'm back. I sent my P3600 for fixing and they replaced the mainboard and works fine.
But, when I lose the sign the phone just take forever to restablish it. Today I came out of the subway again and the phone din't get service and I had to soft reset it...
And thats what happened the day before I sent it to repair... I fell like it's going to happen again!
Try to take another road.

If i were you i'd start taking the bus!!!
Yes yes, your suggestion is valid... lol, but I'm serious, I don't know why I need to soft reset the device every time I lose service... that is annoying!
How many second a HTCP3600 need to find service when you turn it on or do a soft reset? I mean, what can be considered a normal behavior?
When I turn it on, it stays with the "!" for about 5 minutes and only after that time I get service... but sometimes I get no service at all....
I got in touch with Teleservice in germany, which replaced my mainboard, to see if they can give me some advice before I need to send it overseas, again, for repair... or replacement if possible!
If someone have an advice I would apreciate...
Thanks!

I always get a service within 5 seconds or something.. So there is definately something wrong with your device/simcard/provider.

Well you know what they say ,he laughs best who laughs last,anyway ,what you described happened to me as well ,yesterday i too was using the subway here in Athens and when i got home about five hours later i noticed that i had no phone service just an exclamation mark,i siftreset the device and the signal came back.
Hi all,
Just got home, looked at my mobile and it said there was no signal - so I turned it off and back on again, then it said there was no SIM inserted. Keep restarting the phone, keeps saying the same thing. Why?!
Am going to try it in my old SE K850i to see if it's the SIM card or the phone at fault.
In the mean time, does anyone else know of this fault and how to fix..?
I didn't the drop the phone or anything, it was just in my pocket, on it's own - like it always is!
Cheers
Tried it in my K850, works fine. Please someone help
yeah i usually dont put the sim card all the way in but slightly in and it works
I've re-opened this thread due to me misreading....DOH! Apologies (Mental note to one self.......follow own advice and read before posting).

you could try to clean the contacts on the sim card connector of the phone with a q-tip, and see if that solves the problem.
also check if any of those contacts appears to be bent or something, and so doesn't make a connection with the card.
Everytime I open the back up to remove the SD card, I get the SIM card missing bit even though I have not touched it! My HD is only 3 months old and it has done this from the start. I just have to remove it a bit - shove it back in and the phone accepts it is there. Annoying but not enough for me to send it back.
hmm, maybe try to make the sim a bit thicker so it doesnt move around (it shouldn't move by removing the back cover, but it seems to happen on your phone / sim combination.
try putting a thin piece of paper on top of the sim (not the contacts side, but the side facing to the battery cover)
maybe that prevents this problem?
Missing simcard
I have the same problem with my simcard. Though something strange happens when the phone is off for more then 10min, it works fine and notices there is a simcard for like 30 sec after which the error pops-up again. I have tried all of the above things, my simcard works fine in my other phone, adding some paper to thicken it doesn't work either
Anyone who could help me with this?
P.S. sorry for the bad english
As in post 7# written, put some papersheet in the simholder above your simcard to increase the contactpreasure. This surely helps.
Tis trick is also useful for all dualsim users who thik the dualsimadapter does not work in their device (but after using this trick get astonished!)
for Thysiey:
Try to switch to Gsm mode to test . Maybe you have bad umts signal? Happens at other places too, or only at one place?
Got the same issue here...
I cannot move the SIM because it is being hold in place by the battery. (to little room)
Adding a piece did not work either.
Anyone got another solution?
anyone? My mothers HD just got this problem now. She has a new phone and for the contract renewal she had to read the backside of the sim. The phone all of a sudden didn't recognizes the simcard anymore.. I tried a few other simcards but it won't read it anymore.
My plan was to sell the old phone but now it's almost worthless just a shame it is still a great phone to operate.. handy with the navigation and all
My phone keeps saying "Connection Failed Reconnect" if I click on yes or no it does the same thing goes away then comes back and my phone cannot connect to cellular or gps. How can I fix this?
Have you done the basics like rebooting? I'd also reseat the SIM.
Failing that try a new sim.
Tried and it still does it.

Have you tried a new SIM?
I tried my brothers sim from his phone and it does the same thing.
Replace the phone then. Sounds like a dud.
I got the phone replaced and for a day the new one was working fine but now it is doing the same thing. Could the problem be with my sim card or did I get another bad phone?
