Short Dial ("*") problem using international SIM card - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hi,
So I had an issue with the mobile data and fixed it.
Now I have the following problem:
When i'm trying to do a short dial with a "*" before the number (For Instance *131) , I'm getting this message :"Connection problem or invalid MMi code". Is there a way to fix/bypass it?
Thanks again!
(My phone is a sprint Samsung s4, unlocked, stock rom, with a mobile data available using international (local) sim card abroad)

Write to SIM? Possible?

Hello,
Is it possible to write phone numbers to the sim directly? Or is it impossible on an atom?

Piece a Cake. In CONTACTS - MENU - NEW SIM CONTACT.
No good, gives me this error:
SIM error. Unable to save the information to the SIM.
Cant even delete a SIM contact. Is it because im using a danish SIM? Do i need to make some settings for it to work and all?

As a variant - SIM is blocked by operator.

MDJ CM 7 NAND Gingerbread - can I GSM unlock the phone while under Android?

I installed on NAND MDJ and forgot to GSM unlock the phone while I still had WM 6.5. I am obtaining free code from my carrier (TmoUS) but not sure if it's going to work under Android - did anyone try this and did it work?
I plan to put in AT&T sim card in and type in the code - question is: will it work?
Thanks All!
It should already be unlocked. Try an AT&T SIM and find out.
Tried with foreign SIM Card and it was requesting the code to be typed in. At least now I know that code I get from T-Mobile will work.
Here is an update on this matter:
I received an unlocking code from T-Mobile via e-mail but waited until I put in other carrier SIM Card... I went to EU and put in SIM Card from other carrier when Android asked me for unlocking SIM GSM code...
1. I clicked to type in number and got keyboard to open up but it would not register any typing I did...
2. I reseted the device and then asked again for the GSM unlocking code - I did not try it there but clicked to skip it...
3. I got into the Android without being registered on the network...
4. Then I tried to call a number and it asked me for unlocking GSM code -
This time I was able to type in the numbers as the keyboard that popped out was only containing numbers (like dialer) and not full keyboard.
Everything worked just fine there and I am now back to US - where everything works fine as well

put in a sim card from another carrier. Does not have to be live....a dead sim is fine. you will be prompted for the code.
Make sure to put a GSM carrier SIM.
i did that but it does not prompted for the unlock code .
Maybe its unlocked. Did u buy it from Dell or someone else.?

Its got to be a GSM sim from a different carrier.....same carrier sim will not generate the prompt......
and of course...like notebook said...maybe its unlocked
i tried using AT&T sim also it says "SIM error, the sim card is missing or invalid. you can still make emergency calls if your service provider supports it.".
i used many other sim local sim cards but still its coming the same messgae.
help??
Does the DVP read the sim card from the network its locked to? It might be a SIM reader error. That error message is usually thrown when it's not sensing a SIM card.
i went the EM menu RD test > went SIM LOCK> when i press button it says ERROE 213,
what is this,??
can anny one help???
yes, it's easy to input it.

Mobile network not available error!
I use original rom, i did not change anything on the phone...
For last 2 days, after i turn on phone, it says emergancy calls only and i cant receive or send any messages or calls...
How can i solve this problem?
(My sim operator is Vodafone and i am from Turkey.)
I had this problem with the official rom Beta2, and I installed a miui rom and I got rid of that elhamdulillah...
But miui rom did not create any other problems?
My Vodafone sim card works on another phones when i put into them and another sim cards work on my phone; but my Vodafone sim card dont work with myHuawei u8800 no more ! This started 2 days ago.
Vodafone cant explain that, they told me to change sim card.
I can see my imei number, my phone number, signal (-76 dbm) but it can connect to network.
"Selected netwrodk (VOdafone TR 'G) unavailable"
gives that error.
Please help..
I had the same problem. You just need to go to settings>wireless and networks>Mobile networks(the last one) and then network operator(the last one).
Wait for a while and then everything should go.
AFter that i choose Vodafone 2g but it says unable to connect
That's very weird. Did you have an error when you tried to get infos on the phone?
I mean on setting>Infone>status
I used to get an error on com.android.phone
I can see imei, my phone number, signal but - 78 dbm. But network unavailable and roaming out of service.
my sim card works on other phones ajnd other sim cards work on my u8800. That is so weird .S

N900 lineage os sim error

Hello guys, I have a problem. Last week my phone was giving a sim error (sim card is not detected or sim card removed.) I bought the same sim but now I can't use sim and ril. If I call somebody, it says mobile network not available. Imei is okey, I can see him but I can't use data. My operator is Vodafone TR. I didn't face to problem about imei (it isn't clone imei) I tried to libsec-ril.so, modems, another roms but it isn't working now. I tried *#*#4636#*#* but it didn't work. If I install stock rom or stock based custom roms, sim and data work. And I want to say something about apns. When I look apn, sometimes hidden. I created new apn and save, it wouldn't save. Please help me (sorry for my English)
