Hi all,
I recently took out my sim card to replace it with a new one. However, when i placed the new one in and turned the BA on i recieved no signal, furthermore, when i put the passcode in, it said it was wrong. of course, I have punched in the right code i have always been using.
i have tired hard reseting but it still doesnt work.
Are there any other options avaliable apart from flashing a rom in again?
Any help or suggestion will be appriciated.
Kind regards,
Jason
some help would be appriciated

These are both known glitches in the BA with WM6
For the no signal a soft-reset should fix it, for some reason if you remove the battery and then replace, the first boot has no radio initialization, but a soft-reset after that fixes it.
As for the passcode, you have to clean your hive file to regain access to the device. You do not need to format storage, but all your registry settings for installed software will be gone. Most likely a re-install of each app will be needed.
i just went through this..i tried changing my sim card and i was freaked when i saw no radio rom installed..then i upgraded to radio 1.15 and first it worked but again i t showed the same so i went into bootloader an then soft-reset and its working till then ( about 5 softresets till now)
cheers guys, will try that out.

I had a simular problem with my IIi untill i removed the sim card and tried to updat without it installed, it worked for me, hope this might help.

I unfortunately did it in the first place without a SIM card installed... anyone else have any ideas?
Thanks though!
Ive been having some problems off and on with my phone not getting any service. I would restart the phone and it would work for a while. But now I cannot get service anywhere and the phone seems to not work at all.
Has anyone else experienced this or are there any tricks to try and fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as the device seems to be now useless. Thanks
Yep, same with me. I've just upgraded ROM to Faria's last version and still not working the dam phone func
My provider is Vodafone-PT, and i have a Dual Simcard. Even when the other sim is off (unregistered on the vdf network) my hermes simply doesn't register. Not even the emergency number calls are avaiable!!! However, all the other funcs are working fine.
I think it is a softw issue, but i'm still not getting to the point to solve this problem...hope some masters can help us.

plenty of things you can try and troubleshoot with, hard reset, check for bad blocks, flash new radio/ROM.
As XtreMe_G said. I've been running Faias for the last week or two with no radio problems. HR problems, now thats another story. Mke me wanna go back to wm06.
...my problem now is WORST...i've tried to downgrade SPL to unlock CID and SIM, but for somehow the active sync crashed during the rom upgrade. Now i only see the tricolor screen, and active sync doesn't recognize my term!!!
The tri-color screen is bootloader mode and active sync will not recognize your device at this point. Start the ROM upgrade again and go through it. Sometimes the cooked ROMs might flash otherwise always, shipped roms are capable of being flashed from bootloader itslef.

Heya,
I bought a 2th hand MDA pro in working order. I used it for a day or 2 when a problem appeared in the form of a Missing simcard message, out of nothing. I took the simcard out cleaned it and put it back in and it worked again, a few hours later the same error showed I cleaned the sim again booted up the phone and error was still there this went on for 4 times before I got it working again.
I started to search forums about this problem en stumbled upon a few suggesting that the sim holder was flacky and a piece of paper between the battery and card would work.
I did this and on first it looked like it was fixed because it ran for a day before it got back.
By now I changed the simcard -no success- I flashed the phone with 4 different roms including the original one - no success-
I'm running out of ideas with this does anyone had the same problem or are there any suggestions of what it might be?
Please help!

I have had this error before, but usually as a result of a build incompatability. I would suggest you try 2 things. re flash the radio to a different version 1.15 or 1.18 & try using Tomal's 8.2 ROM. Also try a SIM card (borrow one from a friend)from another service provider.

I know this is a really annoying problem, I had it with my Nokia E61 before (and still). After a week of sim registration failures, I decided to switch to another phone, (universal). I didn't got any solutions really, one is force the phone into gsm only, and uncheck confirm smscheck if possible.

Phone rings, I pick up the call, the screen shows connected and starts the call timer but you cant hear anyone the other end. hang up the call and the phone freezes with only a soft reset (taking battery out) works. I have a T-Mobile contract handset and was running the 1.43 rom. I thought maybe flashing to another rom might help so tried the 1.48 update but still having problems. I have hard reset and installed no software but still have the problem. Any ideas guys....
Haveyou set your ringtone toa file on the memory card?
if so try and remove the card. see if it still happens. otherwise it looks like hardware problem. phone should not freeze with clean stock rom.
idk i tried everything possible but still didnt work..i called them already and they are gonna send me a replacement phone..now i need help installing an OFFICIAL T-MOBILE rom? can someone help me find one..and i dont want the ones that says test only not for sale :S i want an official one? any suggestions plz
Just wher you would expect to find it

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy 3, the phone often asks again for my simcard number even though I allready booted it. When I enter the number, it doesn't boot again, but it just goes right away to the main menu like it was before.
Could this be a software problem or do you think the problem is just caused by my simcard itself?
Thanks
Happens to me as well (no problem with the SIM card, I've switched for a new one and it keeps happening). I ended up deactivating the SIM lock and just let it boot without SIM code...
Please elaborate !
what only4omkar said. Also when does it exactly happen? While you are using the phone or only after unlocking the screen?
You have Eclair on your phone, right? Been there too. With Froyo the problem is solved, but without the update the easiest thing is to turn off the PIN code request, as mentioned.
It happens only when the screen lock is on. I do have Eclair. If I install a ROM, you think the problem will go away then?

For me the problem completely disappeared since I flashed Froyo (I tried JPF and JPM). I turned the PIN code request back on, so if the problem didn't disappear, I would notice.
But if you afraid to flash, the other workaround works well, and if ypu want security, you can use the pattern lock.
Happened to me with Eclair 2.1, now with JPM seems ok.
I'll first try turning off the pin code and turning on the pattern lock, if I have some more time to learn about flashing I'll maybe give it a go later
Thanks guys!
Had this problem too on eclair,disable pincode was my workaround too...
Now on Jpm which fixed this problem.
