[Q] Phone crashes - not network detected - Atrix 4G General

Dear Colleagues,
First of all, my apologies if this issue was included in some other post, but I was not able to find it.
I have used the following tip to root my Atrix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255548
Everything went ok until yesterday. I left my phone charging during the night and when I woke up, the phone displayed a message saying that "SIM Card is invalid". I've rebooted the phone and everything went back to normal. 20 mins later, the same error showed up. Rebooted again, and it worked again. A few minutes later, I've tried doing some calls and the dialer looked like calling but it was not able to connect. I have restarted again, and the same happened, only that this time no data was being transferred. I checked the APN and there was none. So it seems that it was deleted by the phone. I re-entered the APN info, everything worked again, but this morning the same happened after charging. Now my phone displays randomly the following error message: "The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.", the APN is gone and it restarts randomly. Any clue?
Should I do a factory reset?
System Info:
Android: 2.3.4
Build Number: 4.5.91
Carrier: Movistar Argentina
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Fernando

Hey
Some questions:
1) Does your phone if from your carrier or did you sim unlocked it using an unlock code?
2) Did you unlocked your BL?
3) Do you run any rom or mod on your phone?

similiar issue here:
yes i have performed 1 and 2.... sim unlocked and bootloader unlocked
please help
thanks
edit:
i bought the phone "new" from ebay. everything seemed and appeared new and clean on phone so i am inclined to believe that it is in fact new. i have unlocked the bootloader, rooted the phone, and entered a code to carrier unlock it. the code appears to work as i have recieved the "phone is now carrier unlocked" message. however, where my bars should be i have an X. then, when i search for a network i recieve 3 networks: 2 att's and one tmobile. I am using a Claro (dominican republic) sim card. i try all three of the searched netowrks and recieve the same error for all of them: "network with limited service found." now i have an exclamation mark in my notification area which reads: selected network (att) is unavailable.
please help!!! i leave for the DR on sunday and need this phone to work!! thanks for your help in advance!

simlock on 8525... network locked?

I purchased a used ATT 8525 today and when I use my old ATT sim card, simlock comes up with the message:
"Network is locked, Please input unlock code"
I removed the sim and used HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a which seemed to complete OK, but I still get the message when I boot up with my sim card in.
I've searched the forums and google for hours and can't seem to come up with any answers. ATT won't give me the unlock code because I didn't pay full retail price for the phone...
What to do?
Thanks in advance.
I decided to try it again with a soft reboot followed up by a hard reboot... worked like a charm!

Invalid missing SIM card

Hello.
I am a complete newbie. Own 8125 CIngular. Worked fine, I switched to T-mobile, unlocked it with lockiwiz 3a (thanks, machinagod). It worked great until I for some reasons had to pull the battery out. It quit recognizing sim in ther - any sim - old Att or new TM. IT is G3 phone, had 2.25 IPL/SPL. I flashed to TM 2.26 (per all the guides here), gsm 02.25.11, Everything loads up great except for the phone part - It's still "missing or invalid sim" What do I do? Please, help Thanks a lot in advance
did you try following the unlock procedure again?
try to move sim a little bit.. maybe it's displaced?
That what happened to me.
Good luck!
To echo the post above mine, I had that same problem at one point, and just taking the SIM card out and putting it back in solved the problem.
I faced a similar problem when I went to another country and used a local sim of that country. I kept putting the phone in 'airplane mode' for 5 minutes and when got that 'airline mode' off, it worked. Cumbursome but it worked.

Galaxy S4 Signal Blocked?

I am running the FoxHound v0.2, everything was going fine until today midday, randomly my phone sim was blocked and it could not connect to network. The phone was originally locked to EE but I unlocked it, now I tried the EE card again and it works for 5 seconds then sim is rejected again. Phone is definitely unlocked and I tried to flash to stock but the problem was the same, so it isn't the rom, any one else having this problem? I would appreciate any help, thanks.

[Q] Sim card problem

Hello,
I bought my Note 3 mobile and decided to flash C-Rom!
At the morning of one day I flashed the rom successfully. Later I installed all apps I wanted. I have my phone rebooted a lot of times with no problem. Some time at the afternoon of the same day I pick up the phone to stare at it! I activated the LTE option and deactivate it again. This was not the first time of doing it! After that the network signal was missing! I rebooted the phone, but it doesn't ask me for a PIN any more. I used my sim at another phone and it asked for a PIN. I used another SIM at my phone but it didn't ask for a PIN.
After dialing *#06# at Dialer a popup dialog shows up. The title of this dialog is MEID and the content is B0000000!
At settings>About phone>Status> the MEID is full of zeroes but the IMEI seems OK.
At the same screen i see the following:
Network - Searcing for Service
Mobile network type - Unknown
Mobile netwok state - Disconected
Service state - Out of service
My phone number - Unknown
MIN - Unknown
PRL version - Uknown
ICCID - Unknown
Thanks everyone in advance
Very strange.... without doing anything like flashing stock or modem?????

The reason is unknown but it seems like your phone lost a valid IMEI/baseband.
Can you check the Baseband version?
Try to flash the stock firmware, or flash the baseband for your device.
The problem suddenly appeared and that's what makes me feel uncomfortable. The baseband number is N9005XXUENC2. I will try to flash whole firmware, but does anyone know how can I flash only the baseband? I don't want to stay with the original ROM!

Extract modem.bin and NON-HLOS.BIN files from the stock firmware, and flash via Odin.

It is my first Samsung. Could you be more specific? How can I extract those? Can you guide me through?

Do you have the stock firmware file already?

Finally I was able to solve the problem. It is a problem with C-Rom and 4g option. I am going to write a new reply by tomorrow and also to the forum. I appreciate the help guys.
Thanks a lot
The problem is with the LTE activation/deactivation.
I am from Greece with COSMOTE provider. Here, in Greece, at the moment we have to pay an extra fee to the provider in order to have the option of using 4g. The steps as I believe are the following:
1). I am not paying this fee at the moment so I am not able to use 4g.
2). I activate 4g and immediately I deactivated it. I did not want to open it, just touching the selection at the notifications. This option is at the notifications when you slide down the notification bar using 2 fingers.
3). Then the signal goes off and I had to re-flash stock rom once again before flashing the custom rom. The problem has to do only with the signal and everything else works as charm in the C-ROM.
The C-ROM version which has this problem is this C-RoM-KK-v7.1-20140622-hlte.zip

network unlocking 6p

hi, i just got my (second hand) nexus 6p and so far i like it alot.
updated to 8.1, unlocked the boot loader, installed twrp amd magist to get root all working fine.
the phone seems to be locked to vodafone (uk) as it works ok with a voda sim but when i try a ee sim or 3 uk sim it will not register on the networks and says emergency calls only. the thing thats confusing me is that it does not ask for a unlock code when i try another network sim, every other phone i had has always asked for a code to unlock it. am i missing something or is there another way to input a unlock code if / when i get it from voda or a third party unlocking provider?
cheers / thanks
You might be right but the solution is there check out this page https://support.vodafone.co.uk/Usin...one-device-if-I-m-not-a-Vodafone-customer.htm
thanks to a message from Exodusche my problem is solved. the phone is not network locked at all, when changing the sim for some reason i had to turn off the security pin then reboot the phone and as if by magic after that i had service and everything working fine. some sort of glitch in 8.1 i guess.
