Defy+ plus no network - change baseband doesn't fix - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so.. I have this phone parked in my drawer for almost a month and finally decided to seek for online help.
Last rom installed is cm7 (but i've tryed several others cm7.2 cm9 cm10 cm10.1). I've tryed using both the baseband switcher included in the rom settings (where avaiable) and the standalone apk. I live in Italy so I chose Italy in the baseband selection (again.. I've tryed several others basebands just in case...). The sim card is a working VodafoneIT sim card and it is recognized by the phone.
the problem is that my phone does not lock to any network and I see the message "emergency calls only".
I also tryed to flash original sbf from here.
I don't know if it matters but logcat reports these errors:
Code:
E/GSM ( 6427): RIL implementation has returned an error where it must succeedcom.android.internal.telephony.CommandExcep tion: GENERIC_FAILURE
D/RILSWITCH( 2018): RILD unknown at cell -1
E/GSM ( 6427): Wrong network type: 0
I remember that at the time of when the problem showed up the first time, looking on the internet, in addition to the advice of changing the baseband, I found a thread where someone was talking about a possible hardware fail.. but I can't find it anymore.
any suggestion?
thanks

up????

i'm also having this problem
anyone found the fix?

Does the same error occur in stock? If so then I think it's a hardware issue. You could try a different sbf of your carrier and region(a newer one), but I do not think it would help much.

I have the same problem: no 3G data, no baseband (baseband unknow), no matter what I do.

Try with different bands from your country or another country with the same frequencies.
Pull the batery out for a few seconds.
Use the latest version of the standard app (not defy parts).
Regards,

It works for me with a different company of my country
My chip is Personal_AR and with this don't work, but with Claro_Ar works fine...
THX it's make me crazy

[Q] GSM Radio Connectivity Problem

Last week I got an unlocked defy from Amazon to use with simplemobile in the US. I activated a sim card and everything worked fine (data, calls, texts).
I made a backup with titanium back up, installed IML74K 4.03 AOKP build28 for Motorola Defy and all went smoothly. However, once it was loaded, I could not connect to the simplemobile network and would only get "emergency calls only"
Tried the baseband switcher v4.0, different frequencies and had no luck. In the attempt of reloading the ROM, could not get the phone to boot past the loading screen. Then I attempted to load a full SBF (T-Mobile_MB525_6.19.0_1FF). This resulted in a black screen, probably due to a version mismatch.
Then I flashed JORDN_U3_6.36.0_SIGNED_USAJRDNTMOB1B4B5DE1028.0R_JORDANTMO_P022_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf, and all worked...except connecting to the network. I still get "emergency calls only". I tried baseband switcher and 3gFixUSA found on these forums to no avail.
Does anyone have any suggestions for what to try to get the radio functioning again?
System version:
Blur_Version.3.6.190.MB525.T-Mobile.en.US
Model Number:
MB525
Firmware version:
2.1-update1
Baseband version:
EPU93ST2_U_03.04.02
Kernel Version:
[email protected] #1
BPflex version:
USAJRDNTMOB1B5DE1028.0R
APflex Version:
GAS_NA_JORDANTMO_P022
Build Number:
JORDN_US_6.19.0
I'm having the same problem on t mobile..... ugh.
I got it. I think.
Nevermind. seen you have used baseband switcher...
Does the baseband switch stick after reboot?
But, theres a 3g fix somewhere here... Try here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=897445
Im not sure if that will help... cheers.
Yeah, I tried that exact 3g fix...is it possible that the radio firmware version is too old/too new/just wrong? Is it different than the baseband?

I'm sure you tried all the basebands that it shows... Hm.. I had the problem until I switched to cm7 honestly.. I know the radio cant be old if it worked before. So. Im not completely sure... Except. Im on Tmobile :c
Interesting...well maybe I should try to install cm7 as well. Is there a specific build that you used? Also, did it work out of the box, so to speak, or did you have to do some more baseband switcher tests?
At this point I'm willing to try to replicate whatever worked for you if you would be willing to share what worked, I would greatly appreciate it

Its the build by Shawnshine. But I'm.sure the other builds would work.. and yes mine worked out of the box. I just tried all the basebands for tmobile and one finally worked. Plus try playing with the sim card. I got mine completely bone stock. I came from a evo 4g and a 3D. But I wont have this phone for too long I'm getting a HTC one next month but this phone has been good to me.

[HELP] X on top of signal bars! No service

Hi Youngers!
I got a friend's Y that doesn't have any signal or service with a working SIM. It only displays an X on top of the empty signal bars. I configured it's APN, and flashed another modem , but it's still doesn't work. Any help will be appreciated.

Try some troubleshooting. Test his sim on another phone and see if it works there.
Is he on a custom rom? Creeds Rom 3.4 had a bug where you cant see the signal even though it has a signal. Can he still send messages even when signal bar is X?
Also, APN wont do anything for the signal, its only for mobile internet browsing with your carrier. Hmmm... are you talking about surfing through your carrier? or basic services like calls and texts?

Thanks for replying! It's running creed's v2. When you try to place a call it says "Mobile Network not Available". I tried his SIM card on an unlocked Atrix 4G and it made a call successfully. Texting doesn't work either. He said when he had this problem he took it to some unlock/repair shop and they failed to state what exactly was causing this.

If all else fails, go back to stock rom or try another rom
(Though I suggest latest stock rom with merruk kernel and superuser opened)

hey pal i also encountered this kind of problem before after patching Creeds ROM. What i did was I reflash the rom with stock Galaxy Y via ODIN or after the first successful boot of selected customize ROM. then you will need to apply the CSC depending on what network your country has. like mine i choose either from SMA/GLB/XTE. just dial #272* IMEI code. I hope this will help.:good:

Also if some one else also faced the same problem kindly suggest how you overcome it.
Thanx in advance.

How to select proper settings
Hello. After testing of this program I (and some of my acquaintances) have not doubt that basebandswitcher really changes frequencies. But I feel that this program is just additional unlocker of operator (or locations) at operating system level.
For example:
I and two my acquaintances live in Ukraine. Frequencies:
2G 900/1800
3G 2100
All devices has been flashed equally:
At first flashed sbf 4.5.1-134_DFP-10;
then flashed radio EPU93_U_00.61.00;
after getting root and installing last version official CM7.2, which used by default this baseband settings: central_europe_34x (it is equivalent Central Europe Hong Kong, Taiwan, Arabia, France, Nordic 3.4.x United Kingdom 4.5.1-85 900/2100MHz)
The first device (from central Europe) start to work correctly after choice Europe RT 3.4.2-145;
The second (from Poland, was locked under orange) began to work correctly after choice Poland Orange 3.4.2-131z
My device from the USA (was locked under t-mobile). It works only with US T-Mobile 3.4.2-107-4 or US T-Mobile 3.4.2-107-9.
So, 3 devices equally flashed and used at one country, but worked on a miscellaneous (depending on from where has been brought). After a choice of settings for the INITIAL OPERATOR OR LOCATION (instead of current basebands values of current region) devices began to behave equally.

[Q] Network problem after flashing I9505XXUBMEA

I am in Singapore on Singtel network.
I flashed about 10 days ago the I9505XXUBMEA rom from Sammobile.
Since I flashed I have had very very poor signal (voice : calls not going through or calls dropped and data : close to no data at all) .
I have a limited experience with flashing roms.
I have checked that it wasn't something related to my network or card by switching the sim back to my GS3. No issue there...
I tried to flash DX... modems with no change...
Can someone help me ?

And see mostly some bad system file would be causing this Reset from device will clear finger crossed
Note: Data will be lost incase u do reset back important things first
Ok, few more solutions for you.
1) Try a CSC change, not sure if that has any effect on your network. Find one that's for Singapore or SEA region.
2) Try flashing a rom from Dejembey's, haven't had any network issues there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824
I'm on MF8. Maybe you should give that a try.
Ohh and please share your wiping procedure you tried earlier.
Cheers.
I flashed the new rom without problems.
I am still mainly stuck on G for the data...
It might not be the rom or modem...
Any ideas of what could be the cause?
