Since I don't have the required privileges to post in the development section I'm gonna try here.
I'm currently using the Aurora Rom and it's working excellent with the exception of two things:
I'm using a domestic roaming SIM (I think that's what it's called, my provider borrows network capacity from another provider) and the phone is acting a bit odd.
1. There's no icon to indicate what sort of data connection is currently active (edge, 3g, hspda etc.),
2. The phone randomly either A: Says I can only use emergency call and it indicates there's no signal, or B: Says there's no SIM-card present. Both of these can be resolved with rebooting the phone. They seem to appear at completely random intervals, but at least several times a day.
Neither of these issues are present if I use my work SIM which is the same provider as the network, I have a data connectivity icon and there's no fuzz with the SIM-card.
Both of these issues has been present at all versions of Aurora that I have tested.
If it is to any help I'm using a provider called OneCall in Norway.
hey mate, try upgrading to the latest version doing all the wipes, and if there is no data connection , see if mobile data is enabled?
Maybe check to ensure your IMEI hasn't been wiped.

The problem has been recurring with all versions of Aurora, and I've tried full wipes several times. I didn't say I had no data connection, the connection is just fine. As I mentioned, the problems are just present with one of my SIM cards.
The problems with SIM dropout might have something to do with the data connection, but I still get the problem when I'm at home connected to my WiFi. I'm gonna try to disable mobile data and see if the problem goes away.

IMEI is present. Again, problems are just present with one of my SIM cards.

Thanks!
Tried the command, still no icon for connectivity type though. Not sure about the SIM problem. Do you mind me asking what the command does?
As for the random SIM dropouts: I haven't actually had any since yesterday, not sure if it is just pure luck or it has something to do with the new 2.0.8 version that I installed yesterday (going from 2.0.7) after making this thread. I've had the problems in all the Aurora versions I've tested earlier. I'll report back if the problems reoccur.
If they don't I guess either the command or the new version fixed it.

Oh ok
Well I haven't had any SIM dropouts yet, but not sure if it's the fix or the new rom.
Anyway the problem has resolved itself in an unconventional way; I just got offered a better subscription with another provider
Thanks for the help!
Usually the budget carriers provide with SIM that are thinner than usual (not much visible)... at least, it happened to me before.
This may be the cause for the error, showing "no sim card inserted" as it will move inside your phone and cause that error.
The network error, can be related with the type of network you choose.
Maybe you choose CDMA only and you're out of 3G on that area sometimes...
You can check it on the settings and mobile networks.
Hi, My Nexus 4 got no service already 1 week++. I already tested with the other SIM card and I also do a research on Internet. On Internet, also got many people faced this problem. On Internet, many people said the nexus 4 cant accept the SIM card that is normal SIM card cut into micro SIM card, must use the original micro SIM card. I also try with the solution and I bought a SIM card that is original SIM card but the micro SIM card also doesn't work. All the SIM card are cant detected by he nexus 4, will the Sim Card tray broken. My phone are protected by cover since day one and never dropped into water. I wish LG can fix this problem and help me to fix this problem, this really cause me a lot of problem. Regards, Tang.

For what its worth
I cut my micro sim ( with a punch ) and it works fine
check in settings if you have a baseband installed sometimes it uninstalls by itself so that could be the problem

Settings > About phone > Baseband version
Does the phone ask you to insert SIM, or are you unable to connect to your cell provider?
If you are asked to insert SIM, you may have a bad SIM slot (broken pin contacts), or the SIM is placed incorrectly in the slot.
If you just have no service, check your phone number is displayed correctly in "About phone" and try to scan for available networks in:
Settings > Wireless & networks (more) > Mobile networks > Network operators
then use "Choose automatically"
Will the sim tray broken. My nexus 4 is running JB Stock and no root.

Had the exact same problem. Had no service at all (the network icon was just a triangle), no baseband, no IMEI. This is what I tried so far. My phone was stock 4.3 before my experiments :
1. Tried toggling *#*#4636#*#*, tried all the options there - no luck. Radio was "off", and no matter how many times I tried to click on Turn On Radio, it wouldnt start
2. Tried switching Sim cards, from same operator and from a different operator, no luck
3. Did a factory reset using the settings menu - no change
4. Finally, rooted the phone using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312 (First time ever, complete noob here). Everything went smoothly. Installed all the standard stuff from the 4.3 image.
Now, I could see the radio intermittently turn on and off - what a relief ! Atleast I knew there exists a chance this is not a hardware issue. I was getting service for 10 seconds, then it was going off for 10 seconds. This was happening continuously.
5. Tried *#*#4636#*#* and toggling all options again, (even GSM only, WDCMA only, preferred etc). I am in India and using Idea Cellular.
6. Searched like crazy on the xda forum for possible solutions - decided I'll try out a different radio version (I had 0.84 on mine) from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087227 - If you're a complete noob like me and dont know what the hell I'm talking about, trust me, flashing a radio is not that difficult. Just refer to my earlier thread link
7. Tried flashing each and every radio from 0.24 - 0.84. Mixed results. Except for 0.83 and 0.84 all other radios atleast maintain signal throughout. However it never turns "blue" - I cannot access the internet from my phone - I have a data plan, the apn information is correct and every other setting is proper (airplane mode off, data on etc). The other odd thing is I can call and receive calls, however there is absolutely no audio !
By elimination - I think there are only two options here - either this has something to do with the 4.3 update altogether, or this is a hardware glitch on the nexus 4 which is activated by some unique sequence of steps. Please note I did NOTHING "illegal" on the phone before this problem - no rooting no custom software, not even any apps which mainstream users would call "shady" - just the usual FB, Mail apps, my corporate mail account.
Any ideas here - I am going to go ahead and try flashing my phone back to stock 4.2.2 again, and hope that works !! Please help ! And apologies for the tremendously long post first up

NoobNexus

i recently buy a nexus 4 from ebay, only for nostalgia, so, when i receive the cellphone, i turn on without a sim inside, connected to wifi and the phone request for 3 upgrades of security, the nexus was in 5.1.1, the last than ir support, so i accepted the upgrades and the nighmare start, when i put my sim, the nexus not recognized it, i try everything, put in airplane mode and back and nothing, full reset from recovery twice and nothing.
So, i unlock the bootloader, install a recovery (clockwork) and root, after download from google the formware 4.4.4 for nexus 4, start the downgrade, when my nexus wake up in kitkat with my at&t (mexico) sim inside, the same problem, still not detecting simcard, i connect to wifi and the cellphone request for an upgrade, android 5.0.1 , click in next and the nexus start downloading and installing the upgrade, after 15 minutes, again with the sim indide, wake up with lollipop and the signal come back again ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
My nexus after 24hrs is still with signal, whitout problems, but still request for the other 3 upgrades ( android 5.1.1 and other two upgrades for security), but with previous experience.... i will keep in 5.0.1......

rooting will not kill your network connection. that's something that you did. you need to provide a LOT more information in order to have people help you out,
what ROM are you on, what settings did you change, what mobile carrier are you on, etc. etc. this is a simple fix, but we need to know what caused it first. :good:

Well the person above me said it. You just made a mountain out of a mole hill by giving out your imei to everyone on xda. Anyway, have you tried a factory reset? If that doesn't work take it to Best Buy and tell them Kies wrecked havoc on your device and they can re-flash your phone for free. Don't tell them it was your fault.

I don't know what the problem is but you should be able to flash the stock firmware in Odin and get your phone working again. Double check this in the i9500, i9505, i9505G S4 forum. You can get the stock firmware from sammobile.com

He should be able to flash it himself. The i9505 is not locked down like the i337. It's an international version so he probably can't take it to best buy, which is what I was responding to.

Data enabled, but no internet connection
Hello,
I have the stock rooted i337 (AT&T), running on another provider network. I am aware that i337 is very difficult to do modifications due to the built-in by AT&T vicious locks to prevent using it with other network providers. This is the reason I did not flash ROM, because I am afraid to get my phone bricked and lose it entirely. Recently I subscribed to a data plan from a third party provider and I have 4G in the status line and HSPA in the data type, but I still did not have internet connection when WiFi was disabled, except that my Hotmail somehow worked. No other apps requiring internet worked. I spent a week researching the issue myself as well as working with the provider's tech support, but nothing worked. Two days ago, almost out of despair, I installed a new app called Opera Max, which is developed to route the unencrypted data to their Virtual Private Network in order to compress it and save the data use. As soon as I connected to VPN, all applications started working. I still have to turn Opera Max off when I use WiFi, because it disconnects my WiFi every few minutes, claiming that WiFi signal is too low. (My signal is very strong and no other devices have any issues with WiFi). However, this is a minor problem, considering that Opera Max saved my data plan.
It is still a mystery to me why Hotmail worked, but no other apps and why using Opera Max VPN solved the problem. If anybody has ideas, I will be happy to hear.
I must say that all data settings, including APN are checked, rechecked and correct, so this was not the issue.
Thanks,
Dan
I am also having connection issues after rooting my S4 i9505:
I am on a Telcel (Mexico) which is supposed to support 4G connections... However, ever since I rooted I can only access 2G/GSM networks. I have the official APN network configuration and I have tried two roms but still no luck...
Any advice would be most welcome.
Hello guys,
I've a problem with my phone. I have no mobile connection, but it isn't Modem related (I think).
It all happened when i went back to 4.3 TW (XXUEML6), I've always used broodplanks aosp rom.
First i thought it was a modem issue so i checked my modem but it was ML6
Tried to fix it with some reboots, wiping cache, factory reset, full reset and reflashing of both TW and AOSP.
I later flashed my previous modem, the problem still presists.
Now to get to the weird part: I've no mobile connection (No service) BUT can use my Mobile Internet and Wi-Fi.
Can't recieve/make calls, neither sms. But mobile internet works perfectly
I'm beyond desperation,
Can you please help me?

If it was a sim problem, I wouldn't be able to give in my pin at boot, and wouldn't have any acces to Mobile Internet (not talking about Wi-Fi)...
Well it' almost 3AM here so have no-one i can ask for his/her sim. If you got any other suggestions I'm happy to try.
Reset APN else change your sim..
Send my signature phone to XDA with bad grammar
It can be your sim.I used a cut down one (iphone5) and put it in an adapter to make it a microsim.I had mobile data, but couldnt call or send texts.Used to happen daily, but sometimes phone displayed triangle=no sim inserted.Other times nothing was displayed (meaning I was fooled into thinking there was no problems).
Only once, for about 2 seconds have I had any problems with sim since I changed it for a proper micro one a week ago.
I thought it could be the sim holder also, as a few people have had problems with them.

Well strangly the phone has came to its senses overnight without doing anything. Now it's a game of waiting...
Because it happened a couple of times in the previous 2-3 days
A little "update": I've tried my sim in another phone, it worked.. Another sim in my phone also worked.
EDIT: I flashed stock XXUEML6 firmware and took care that I got "Official" (yes i've tripped knox a long time ago).
So far so good. So i guess latest official FW fixed the problem

I think you will have to change the SIMCARD.
*COUNCIL: Try your current SIMCARD in other device for know if works ok or not.
My friend, its not SIM CARDS fault. I have two Galaxy Note 3`s and my SIM CARD works fine on all mobiles. The simcard has no damages or anything. It is a system failure I think. My phone connects to my network operator in like 5 seconds and go off when I change between Network Modes.

1. Root your device and flash Custom Recovery (like TWRP).
2. Make a nandroid backup to your SDCARD (data, system, EFS, boot, cache... ALL).
3. Wipe all (wipe system the last).
4. Reboot in download mode and reflash the stock ROM via ODIN: HERE.
5. Root your device again, flash TWRP and restore the backup (selecting ADVANCED BACKUP in TWRP) and select what you wanna restore.
6. Done.
I did that, still not working.
Did that, still same problem

I don't know where you got that idea, but it's absolutely not true. Just look around: There are countless threads about solving this or that problem. Going through the manufacturer for repair is usually a last resort option.
As morningstar said. Going to Samsung to repair your phone is the last option. I am searching for help to solve this problem and you are coming here with your "lol" trying to help with some useless and not true information.
"try and try one day you can fry" never heard off that.
Just to check, the IMEI doesn't happen to start with 0049, does it?
Sent From My Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9005 Using Tapatalk
No, my IMEI is correct and matches with my phone. Its the same as back off my phone when I pull out my battery. This is really strange, because I can see that people who are facing this problem have a blacklisted/corrupt IMEI, but mine is correct.
*Four years later...*
Got a fix? I have this problem now.
