Hi All,
I am currently running the Nexus One Gingerbread v2.7 with radio version 2.15.50.14 on my HTC HD2.
My phone has been running this ROM for the past few months with no real issues but today I have 'no service'
I have tried a reboot that usually sorts it out but that has not worked, I have even powered off the phone and taken the sim card out with no luck also
Any advise/help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Stevo
made sure there are no outages in your area with your provider?
Other Orange customers in my office are ok.
try one of their sims then in your phone and your sim in another phone

Hi everyone,
We've been having some reception problem on a T-Mobile Wing. It's currently running PDAVIET build 20764 and radio ver. 03.21.90. Tried several radio ROMS and none of them would give good signals. A lot of times it would show "No Service", sometimes we'll get good signal for a couple of minutes but immediately disappears afterwards. It's already HardSPL-ed and SIM unlocked. Anybody has similar experience?
Thanks!
i have the same problem as you do.... i just recently purchased another wing from craigslist... The first wing that i owned, worked great with no reception problems... I tried a different radio and took the antenna from my old wing, did not help what so ever.. Anyone have a clue of what the problem might be?
Will try to stop by at HTC service center on Monday. Anybody else has any clues?
Sorry if this has been posted before, couldnt find any threads on the subject, I have a unlocked Touch HD but when i insert a o2 sim card it keeps showing as no service. when sim card is inserted it does recognise that its a o2 sim card and configures the setting
anyone out there had same issue?
Stock or cooked rom? Has it worked before or is this new behavior?
Cooked rom, o2 sim didnt work before i installed cooked rom
Do you know anyone else with a sim card that you can drop in there to see if theirs' get service? How old is your sim card? May take it by your provider and have them stick a card in to see if they can get it to fire up.
Also, go to your phone settings and see if your connection is set to a specific frequeuncy or if it's set to auto. If it's set to a specific frequency eg. GSM 1900/2100 or something like that, change it to auto and see what happens.
Did you purchase the phone unlocked or did you do it yourself? May be matter of flashing the correct radio.
Ive tried what you have suggested but still same issue, ive upgraded htc hd to the latest radio but same issue.

MIA,
Have you tried the latest stock ROM (do a hard reset after reverting to a stock ROM)?
Have you tried different SIM cards from different networks?
How did you acquire this phone again?
Cheers.
I swapped my htc tytn 2 for this phone, ive tried orange, t-mobile, vodafone sim cards and they are all working fine, when i got the phone it had the latest official rom from htc and even then it was still showing as no service, ive upgraded rom to duttys 6.5 and upgraded to latest radio.
So you have tried other sims with this phone and you get service? If that is the case, I'm inclined to believe it's your sim. I've seen posts from others where their sim worked perfectly in their TYTN, but once in the HD, it didn't. Something to investigate.
Ive tried my friends o2 sim cards and same problem no service message, im starting to regret getting the htc touch hd as i really wanted it in the o2 network.

MIA,
Have you tried it in GSM mode? It's really impossible that you can't get even the most basic of things running (excluding things like 3G or HSPDA).
Don't give up, just keep tinkering around in the phone settings.
Cheers.
Ive tried everything that has been suggested. this phone is driving me

MIA,
I'm really sorry, but I have no idea why it isn't working. The only thing I can tell you is to go into an O2 store and keep asking to try different SIMs and explain your issue. I simply cannot imagine why a sim would not work on one GSM network but it does for others.
That just baffles me.
Cheers.
ive tried brand new o2 sim card in the phone and same issue again, it recognises the sim card and configures settings but still same problem with no service on the reception bar its just got a ! mark next to it.
Hi,
I'm having a strange issue with my HTC Desire.
I have successfully rooted my device and flashed a number of different roms including GingerVillain 3.3 and Supernova and they all work fine.
However, since doing this my SIM is not being detected or I get the message, "Emergency calls only,"
Just to test that my SIM card works, I've placed it into an old phone of mine and I can get a signal and make calls without problems.
The aerial on my phone is working fine as I can detect Wi-Fi and go onto the Market app without any issues.
Please can you help, as I'm totally perplexed as to what this issue is.
(I've also tried tried to re-create my APN's but it won't allow me to save profiles either, I just get a blank screen under the APN section. My service provider is with Orange in the UK.)
Any help greatly appreciated, I am at my wits end with this!
Thanks.
Please help me fix my beloved HD2 I have replaced my HD2 with one I purchased off ebay a few weeks ago, as the hardware on my old one failed. Anyway, it turns out that the one I purchased off ebay is a TMOUS HD2. Anyhow, the phone works perfectly in every operation, except the most vital feature, cellular connection!
On the original Windows Mobile 6.5 rom, I just get an exclamation mark where the signal should be. When I search manually on network selection I can only see Orange that comes up. This is no use to me as I am on GiffGaff (ran on the O2 network).
On android, under the status screen I can see that there is signal being recieved, but most of the other boxes say things like provider unknown etc. The signal says something like 103db, -3asu (these are only the figures I remember), so I can see that some signal is working.
On windows phone it says No Service on the phone icon. I have tried the APN tool and it still does not work
What could this be? I have reflashed some different radios and it still does not work. The simcard worked perfectly with my previous european HD2. I have now spent about 8 hours tonight trying to get it working ;(
Many thanks

run htc connection setup obtained from the htc marketplace part of the windows phone marketplace. those numbers you see under android is the signal strength numbers. did you not know you were buying a tmous phone from ebay and not the european version? the phone should still work as the hd2 is a quad band phone.
anyway, the connection setup app is what you need. make sure your cellular connection is on in settings.

hey man, cheers for the reply! I thought that it was a european phone, the pictures showed a generic HD2 with white buttons, so they must have just used a stock picture, I was quite happy that it was a tmous one, because of the extra ROM. Anyhow, in windows phone 7 I did actually run the HTC connection setup, and configure it to giffgaff, but I still cannot call people as it says there is no service :/ I have reinstalled android and the signal strength is -95dBm and 0asu, is that a bad signal?

I just installed typhoon's cm7, but I had no such luck ;(
try locking the radio to 2G GSM in settings & see if you can get on the GiffGaff network.
Try some other sims to help eliminate a network issue.

I have enabled 2G in the android preferences on the typhoon rom, I have also inserted a different simcard (BT) and the same issue occurs
Could it be a radio issue? I have my suspicions that this is a refurb phone, could the antennas not be touching the chassis properly?

I just wiped data/factory reset in the recovery, rebooted phone and got signal for about a second. I got two texts through and now the signal has gone, now it is at 0dbm and 0asu????
Sounds odd, try a WM6.5 rom such as NRG & one of the top radios such as linked in my sig & see if you get it working then move on to ROM of your choice or pin it down to hardware issue ...
I have a TMOUS HD2 & have used it fine on Orange, Vodafone in the UK. If issue persists on WM6.5 I would suspect hardware issue !

Hey, cheers for trying to help!
I installed the stock WM6.5 rom and suddenly I got 5 texts and there were 4 bars of signal. A minute later all signal was gone and no matter how hard I tried I could not get any
This was after I opened up the phone and made some fixes.
It turns out the phone is a refurb unit that the seller was trying to sell as brand new! I was first alerted to this when I saw the original sticker seal was replaced with a Chinese one, and the grill near the earpiece had dirt in it. Most of the antenna prongs on the mainboard were bent down, so I bent them back up. All of the screws that were meant to be securing the main board down were also missing. This is a word of warning to those buying off ebay. The company I bought this off were a very large Chinese company, but it would appear that they refurbish phones, make them look new and try to sell them as new, and most of them work. The link to the seller is below:

Do not buy from them!
Thanks for everyones help with this, I have given up trying to fix this piece of ****, anyone have any ideas what I can do with two broken HD2's? Any buyers?

PM me!
I've sorted the problem and seeing as no one has replied I thought you may a well remove the post.
I'm running my HD2 on a NAND NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.8 ROM. Apart from a couple of minor clitches, a;;'s been fine. One thing I've not tried was using a different sim card until last night. I needed to activate a PAYG Orange sim so swapped it over but nothing....I tried my Tesco Mobile sim and it was fine then tried another working sim (3) and that wasn't recognized either. My old sim's back in and working for the mo but I'm due to receive a new one and really don't want to be without a working phone - I'd like to try and suss this before the sim arrives if poss.
I've done a couple of searches for answers to this problem and the only issues I see are people who's phones don't recognize their sims after flashing or sometimes after hard resets but nothing mentioning problems with different sim's not being recognized after swapping.
Any suggestions as to what's the best course of action?
I unlocked the phone via a code from eBay before moving from Windows 6.5 to my new ROM - could that be something to do with it?
