Hi everybody.
My SGS had Doc's Rom 9.1.4 from kitchen, with australian modem and hardcore's kernel.
In Italy, everything is fine.
Then, i went to Sweden, and the phone was TOTALLY UNABLE to do any kind of roaming.
Signal bars are shown, but with "Emergency calls only" string being displayed.
I was not able to do ANYTHING with an italian sim in my i9000 while in Sweden (i tried 2 of them, and both worked with my friend's SGS with a doc rom, so it's not a sim-related problem).
I borrowed from a friend a Swedish sim (Comviq) and it worked with no problems.
Today i came back to Italy, and the sim works again.
While in Sweden i thought i had a "software" problem, so i flashed last 9.9.5 docrom no wipe (no luck), then the 9.9.5 wipe (no luck again) and a JS5 version my friend had in his SD.
I tried to select manually the provider (telenor or telia or others) but a popup said it was impossible to connect and to automatically select one of them.
What's the problem, in your opinion?
I think it's a strong problem, basically my phone can't do any roaming.
Sorry missed a piece of text. Wich version modem you on?
Might be your modem is on 850 band only
I was on JL2 (australian one), then i tried JQ1.
The band-thing imho has not sense, 'cause when i put the swedish comviq sim it worked like a charm..
No experts on this out there?

I'm sorry but this is a thing i don't know
Maybe you don't have roaming active? You should check with your operator.
Have you also tried using your sim in a different phone?

Yes, it's written in the first post. I tried 2 italian sims on my phone while in Sweden: not working. On another SGS: both working.

Is you IMEI correct? Maybe in Sweden they block access to their networks if you're roaming and your IMEI is not real.

baseband version u r using (EPU93_U_00.59.01) IN MINE
baseband selection u are using (europe/great britain 4.5.1-85) in mine
what option in gsm/umts network preferences u r using [GSM/WCDMA(auto-mode)] in mine
data is enable in mine

very very sry to be a hassle .... just sort me out if u can

I've been using my British bought Defy in Brazil for a couple of months. I'm using it on CM7
When I was living in Brasilia, I managed to get 3G coverage no problem (well, data allowances are crap here, but at least I could connect).
I use mainly Tim, but also Vivo from time to time
I've now moved to Natal, I struggle to get 3G anywhere in the city...... as it's pretty much the whole town, and both Tim and Vivo fail to connect, I can't believe coverage can possibly be this bad and suspect my phone is the problem.
Any advice on what I can do? I've tried switching the baseband around, but no success. (I even tried a Chinese baseband, as the frequencies seemed to match 3G in Brazil). It hasnt made a difference so far. Within the Baseband Switcher that comes with CM7, it gives the option for Vivo and Claro (networks). Would it make a difference choosing one of them, considering I'm using a Tim sim card (another network)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been tempted to switch ROMs, but I've been lazy so far I guess
l'm facing similar problem I found a work around I download the app APN BRASIL . you should try it.
Brazil Claro 3.4.2_107-7 @ 850/2100MHz
Brazil Claro 6.14.5 @ 850/2100MHz
Brazil Vivo 3.4.2_107-9 @ 850/2100MHz
>
Use standalone Baseband Switcher... more options and details on regions and carriers.

Ok I downloaded it and it identified my Tim SIM card....got the settings...but after a reboot I'm still only getting Edge speeds :/. When I went to the Tim shop my APN settings were correct, so not sure what it could be. (Ironically I only got 3G whilst in the Tim shop, which didn't help my case)
Is there any benefit to the paid version of APN Brasil?
As for that Defy Baseband Switcher app...is that not the same one that comes with CM7?

Try out the specific baseband I mentioned for your network in my other post.
The CM7 app is in Defy Parts, right? Coz the CM10 BBS from Defy Parts doesn't mention network names, just baseband codes, so I prefer the Mfunz app that mentions both codes and service provider names.
Changing the APN settings will NOT help you if you're on the wrong baseband.
But after flashing the correct baseband, use your operator specific APN that the APN app provides you with.

Ok I downloaded that baseband switching app and yea, it's the same as the one that comes with CM7 (perhaps an updated version...I'd never seen "Tim Brasil" down the bottom).
Gone through all the Brazilian options (including Tim) and still only getting Edge connection... ahhh...dont know what;s causing it
I don't get it; it was always fine in Brasilia. Just changing cities has somehow caused it to not work. Unless 3G frequencies change within the country?
what is the mfunz app? The baseband switcher you linked to?

Ya... mfunz are the guys who made our baseband switcher....
if you are on the correct baseband and 3g still doesn't work, then there's probably an APN problem, so you should use that APN app to gat the correct settings and go to the network operator's service center to get alternative settings if the app doesn't give you a result.
not having any luck here..... But I put a Claro sim in my Defy and it gets ok-ish 3G.... I guess Tim and Vivo must really be that awful :laugh:

I did the basic setting that the operator asked me to do.
When I used the same 3G SIM to my N7000, it works with the same setting.
Is there any special setting for I9505.

Did it again but even when 'H' sign (it showed up all the time) is there - no data coming.
I noticed sometime it says 'E' and I can use internet.
But when it shows 'H' no internet flowing.
Strange and still hoping for your expertise view and suggestion.
I remember it was working fine in Hong Kong when I was there last week with Hong Kong SIM. It showed there 'H+'.

Hi guys, I dunno if this a frequently asked question but my N9005 won't pick up any 3G signal here in Morocco. 2G works fine and when I try to force it into 3G mode only it doesn't pick up any signal AT ALL. I tried few official roms, even the Moroccan one but nothing. I read about SPT box flashing but That's not available in my city.
I'm running on 4.2.2 btw

Guys please help ! I'm even thinking of changing my phone because of this. And I really love this phone !!!
Does your provider or the area you are in have 3g coverage ? Just asking. If you have set it in the settings, and you're in a 3g area it should work. Have you checked your APN settings ?
Sometimes mine won't connect to 4g, then i have to reboot it.
And it's forbidden to bump up your thread in less than 24 hours. What do you think, people are just waiting here to answer your questions ? No. Patience.

Are you using a local SIM or Roaming?
If you're using Roaming, not every provider has a contract with every other provider for every network. There needs to be a contract between providers before you can use the local 3G network.

Is the CSC you posted in the first post correct? If so, XUF is not a valid CSC code as far as I can tell. XXUF is the bootloader, it should not be in the CSC.
A faulty CSC can cause the device to be limited to GPRS.

Bro, I'm from Morocco too and I have the same phone as you as well as the same problem, but I managed to fix it in Derb Ghellef, just take your phone there and they will fix it in moments and only for 50 DH.
Good luck!
