Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with my network after going into the test menu (*#*#4636#*#*):crying:. I'm hoping someone can help me out.
My Phone:
I have a stock Nexus 6p not rooted.
The Problem Cause:
After going into the test menu (*#*#4636#*#*). I pressed the menu button (...) and pressed the "Set GSM/UMTS Band" button. My three options were "USA Band", "Band 6" and "Band 7", decided to select "USA Band".
The Problem effect:
Since I did that, I can't make or receive phone calls. My phone won't ring (though it "rings" for the person trying to call me and they get to my voicemail). If I try to call someone else, it hangs perpetually at "dialing".
Soulution I have try:
1-Setting the bands and switch between USA,6,7 but nothing changed.
2-Doing soft/hard factory reset but also nothing changed.
Any ideas how to fix this problem?!

Same problem
I'm having the exact same problem. I couldn't make or receive calls out of the box. When I fiddled with the test menu, I was able to at least get it to where I could place calls but I still cannot receive them. I'm not sure what I did at this point. Verizon support and Huawei support have been useless. I tried to factory reset and that did not help.

What carrier are you with? I did the same thing but I managed to get my phone working again.
why did you mess with these settings if you don't know EXACTLY what you're doing? very big mistake. there some settings you should never fiddle with unless you're dead certain
best best now, imo, if the factory image doesnt fix it... unlock your bootloader and install a ROM that has an expanded set of radio bands... I know some ROMs have it, but not sure which ones.
Yes use Chroma it has more bands to choose from. I think someone needs to create a sticky not to mess with those settings.
I only messed with the settings because I was already not able to make or receive phone calls. Messing with the settings allowed me to at least call out now.

Flash the factory image. That way you know for sure you are as stock as could be. Then if the problem persists exchange the device because its faulty. You shouldn't have to mess with any settings to make calls. Other than maybe a borked APN setting.

:good::good::good::good:
Yep! Flashing the Chroma ROM did it! It's all back to normal now. Thank you scoobysnack soooooooooo much for your help!
what I did are;
1. Hard reset
2. Unlock bootloader
3. Install TWRP
4. Root
5. Install custom firmwares
6. Revert back to stock firmware
7. Install different 'radio' images
8. Install different stock firmwares
Unfortunately, none gave me a positive outcome.
Last Hope Was:
I flashed Chroma, a lightweight AOSP ROM focused on battery, performance and stability.

The following link is for Chroma download and installation instruction:

This custom ROM for Huawei Nexus 6P was first recommended by a scoobysnack. It works with a proper selection of bands according to your country.
On the dialer, use this codes *#*#4636#*#*
Selection for different bands would then available.

I'm glad you figured it out. However, If you tried the factory image and it didn't work, that's a problem! You should have had cellular service right out of the box and definitely after you flashed the factory image. Unless you did not actually try the factory image itself. Can you clarify. Because if that's the case you have a defective unit and it will be an issue when you need to actually restore your device some day. Also don't want people to get the idea that a factory image is not a fix for this.

Flashing the factory image does not work. I messed with my phone for 4 hours trying to get of to work again. I was originally on chroma when I screwed my bands up. That's how I knew about the other bands. I believe it only fixes international phones . I'm in the US on VZW and flashed factory image and had to select band 6. So depending on where you are depends on what method you have to use to correct the problem. And yes a sticky and FAQ should be made as a lot of people seen to have this problem.

The images work on either variant. It confuses me why a factory image would not fix it but I'm sure there is a reason. Its new to me though. What's weird is I am on Verizon in the US as well. Works right out of the box for me and any issues that I have come across have been fixed by a factory image. I wonder if people having problems on Verizon are having issues due to network and sim card provisioning issues and by switching bands you are fixing it but you are not on the normal bands maybe. I know some people on Verizon had to call and tell them to activate LTE on their line even though they were supposed to be getting it. And that fixed the no service.

I guess the reason why a factory image did not fix the problem is because my phone version is US not International. And I am now not from US, originally from Middle East. So there is no compatibility between US and the international bands. The only choices I had from the Bands are USA Band, 6 and 7. I am guessing that the International version has more options and compatible with variant bands.
guys. try to install chroma rom , it has several different bands. just to get it working . then return back to stock if you want i had the same issue and i had data working and sms without calls until a guy helped me ( im very grateful for him ). i hope it works. please let me know
@scoobysnack .. man, I came to help but you were faster haha
I used Chroma ROM it gives you proper selection of bands according to your country.

I did the software unlock via the dial code & UMTS menu, I can make phone calls with a different carrier sim, but I cannot get the data to connect. I have been searching xda and google for months trying to get this to work. I have a Canadian Bell mobilty i337m. Stock rom (mdj) and its rooted. I have tried factory reset several times but it doesnt fix it. I also tried flashing back to stock with odin. Does anyone have any other ideas?
When I try a telus (or other provider) sim, it give me voice service only and in the about > status menu the mobile network state either says disconnected or connecting. I have the data toggle on also.
Those unlocks don't work that well with the Canadian variants. They're designed for the i337 not the i337m.
Have you made sure the apn is set up right for the carrier?
Maybe this will help
Code:
http://apn-settings.com/canada/apn-settings-bell-mobility/
I will say the reason that cause the problem is that this is an ATT phone with At stock ROM. So it doesn't have the APN setting for other carries. You should set that by yourself.

Not true. I successfully unlocked my first S4 I337M on Bell following this tutorial. I sold that one because I was able to make a profit once I unlocked and flashed the AWS mod to make it compatible with WIND and Mobilicity.

Try reflashing the original 4.2.2 firmware from here and then immediately follow this tutorial before rooting (do not install any system updates!). Then you can root, install custom recovery, reset the flash count, etc.

oddly enough, when I put a telus sim in it and waited for a while (in hopes it would eventually connect to data) and the apn settings for telus were in the phone. I know I didnt put them there because the apn settings for koodo were also present along with a third apn that I cant remember.
For future reference, try not to double post. Just edit your current post.

It's actually not an odd thing to happen. Once an activated SIM is inserted and the phone is unlocked, the phone searches for the best APN settings from all compatible carrier bundles. Some phones do this more accurately than others. However, it may not do this well enough if a custom ROM is installed. I know this to be true because this happened with my older Galaxy S3 when I tried selling it to someone (it was a T-Mobile unlocked running CM 10.0 at the time). However, setting the APN manually (assuming all settings are correct and that nothing else is wrong with the phone) should resolve your issues.
If you're still having problems, I suggest doing these things:
1. Try going into your network operators and let the phone search for carriers nearby. Once the list shows up, tap on Telus and wait until that screen closes on its own.
2. If you can't get data going yet, try disabling it, re-enabling, and reboot.
3. If this still doesn't work, try going into the network mode screen and select GSM/LTE and reboot.
4. If it's still derping on you, then it must either be your SIM not connecting to Telus's data network, or your account has a data block. That's all I can really think of.
Good luck.

Ok, reflashed stock 4.2.2 (the first one) and manually entered TELUS apn settings from the telus website, got data to connect finally. As a note, there was a typo in the apn settings that it auto aquired for telus. Going to try a eastlink sim tomorrow and hopefully AWS is working.
Edit: all seems to work. thanks everyone!!

Only available option is to reinstall the firmware which will revert all settings of the phone.

Care to explain how?
Thanks VikasBabu. Yesterday I managed to get my signal back. I went to the 4636 hidden code and placed the network type as "Unknown" and turned off the radio there. I rebooted and started like a Firmware update (that I never started because I didnt have any new firmware) then rebooted in recovery mode a couple of times. Then ... It started getting signal.
Not sure what worked, but It's working. It's kind of dizzy 'cause it doesnt show the network name, but it's working getting calls, data and sms. Now I'm waiting for the (When is it going to be please Lenovo?) Nougat update for the RETUS (RetailUSA) version?? And then, It will be at 100%.
Thanks again VikasBabu

OK, *FIRST TIME POSTER HERE* so please excuse any unintentional ignorance of rules or etiquette.
I'm just super excited to get this phone working the way I like it, and it's all thanks to xda so I was moved to create an account to express my thanks AND hopefully help a few people back.
How? Well after reading through pretty much everything I could find on the N910S here and elsewhere, it seems that no-one (yet?) has been able to confirm a working mod that meets the following:
1. N910S Exynos Korean version
2. Some kind of custom English only ROM that removes the Korean characters from keypad and other network-apps
3. Removed bloatware
4. Easy-to-follow, how-to guide
Seems there were quite a few ppl who wanted the same thing so I just want to let you know what I did to get it working.
*PLEASE NOTE* Everything contained in this summary was found through over a week of tedious reading, research, trial & error. BUT in the end all the necessary information was contained, or linked to, in xda forums. It's just that all the relevant information and files were scattered over many different threads and topics. I'm just collating it all here to hopefully make it easier for the next person to find.
Background info: I'm technically competent but relatively new to phone modding - I've only rooted my HTC E8 before this to remove bloatware. This is my second project. I live in HK and started with a completely stock OEM Note4 N910SKSU2DPK2 after a factory reset. I then did the steps below in order (not including many failed attempts and re-starts, of course) These are just the broadstrokes of what I did, if you need to know how to do each step in detail then please search the forum. It's quite clear and there's no need for me to repeat it here anyway
As it's my first post and I'm in a rush to leave the house soon, I have not bothered with screenshots or links - I'm happy to provide if someone can tell me if the preferred method is link to the thread where the info was found, or you just want a link to the files I used. Again, they were all found through links in threads on xda anyway but I'll have to spend some time to find them again as I didn't bookmark them. Also, if you want the files someone will have to tell me how to upload them here. The filenames/packages are given in [brackets] so maybe you can just search for them?
0. Reminder to backup your phone and data first!
1. Root - was really easy using CF AutoRoot [CF-Auto-Root-trelteskt-trelteskt-smn910s] Just download to your PC and package includes Odin, which for first-timers is the official Samsung software used to flash to your phone.
2. Download:
- ClockWorkMod [n910s-cwm-recovery-6.0.5.1(1113).tar]
- SuperSU [SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip]
- C Mod ROM [C_ROM_N910s.v2HNY.zip] (the site is Korean-based but google translate of the page was enough for a non-Korean like myself)
- N910S DPK2 modem file [N910S-20170114T050808Z.zip] The original thread had links to every modem variant they knew of, so should work with other S/L/K variants BUT of course I haven't tried them.
3. Copy files for SuperSU, CMod ROM, and DPK2 modem onto an external SD card and insert into your phone.
4. Put your phone into Download Mode (from power-off state, hold Vol Down + Home + Power)
5. Run Odin on your PC, connect phone. On Odin, click <AP> and select CWM file. Do not check or modify any other options. Click <Start> to flash CWM recovery to your phone.
6. Once it's done, disconnect from PC, and restart your phone into the new custom recovery mode (from power-off state, hold Vol Up + Home + Power)
7. Choose Install from zip and select the SuperSU file from your ext SD card. (I think this step may not be strictly necessary as it's part of CF AutoRoot, but SuperSU is always handy to have anyway)
8. Reboot into Recovery mode again (available in Advanced menu)
9. Install zip - now choose the CMod ROM file. Reboot into system and have a look around the new UI. It was at this stage that I noticed two things: my HK carrier SIM was not recognised, and as the ROM boasts some Note 5 features the Always On Display function would cause my Note 4 to not be able to wake up once the screen was turned off (manually or via time-out). I had to pull out the battery, restart phone, go straight into Settings -> Display and turn off the Always On Display functionality.
10. To fix the SIM card not recognised, reboot into Recovery Mode again and Install zip - choose the DPK2 modem file (or whichever version your phone's modem is). Restart phone, wait a few minutes and SIM should now work.
*ONE REMAINING ISSUE* Even tho my SIM is 4G/LTE, it seems to be connecting at HSUPA only. Could be reception, I'll check later. But I believe there's a way to select different LTE bands through secret codes or menu, not sure but I'll try that as well later and update if it works.
That's it - hope it helps! Thanks for reading, and don't forget I'm new to this AND a first time poster so be kind in comments/questions please

So by following steps in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/note-4-sm-n910s-sk-telecom-issues-t2929571/page2 for SKT, I was able to change to LTE Band 3 or 7 (which is what my sim provider offers) and get an LTE signal for data, BUT then I lose voice call functionality. If I choose Band 3 Preferred, it says band changed success, but just connects via HSUPA and I get voice, but no LTE (just like before, or if I choose Automatic)
Can anyone please help me figure this out? How can I get voice AND LTE? Many thanks in advance!
PS - also after I reflashed my modem.bin the baseband changed from N910SKSU2DPK2 to N910SKSU0DPK2. I don't know what this means nor if it has anything to do with the problem I've described above? Can anyone help to explain? Thanks...

Band 3 and 7 are supposed to stick with default settings. I tried it once during my trip to Malaysia and it worked flawlessly. Any chance you might want to contact your carrier?
The trick to switch from 4G-3G-4G works. ATT band 5 preferred

Have you tried switching to 3g only, then switching it back to 4g when available in your phone setting??
I had similar issue with 4g and apparently, this strangely simple trick solved my problem.
Anyway, I tried to download the ROM from the Achonapp but took me ages and I couldn't flash it either. May I know where you got the ROM from?

Tried your suggestion but now it shows No Service
*update* actually I think your "trick" works... After switching to 3G only, it wouldn't switch back to 4G and showed No Service. I rebooted the phone with a different sim and after a few minutes, it automatically connected to 4G AND I now have voice as well! So, all is working properly now and I'm a happy camper. Reboot with the original sim and still works and connects to 4G. So I think you're right it just needed to be "forced" to select 4G preferred. Thanks for the tip!
Yeah I got it from achonapp as well and it took a while - I think I left it going overnight. But the ROM did work for me. If anyone wants the file direct I'm happy to put it up on my google drive if it's not against forum rules etc.
But since then I've switched to miui8 which is also working pretty much flawlessly as daily ROM, but I haven't tested every single little feature of course. If you wanna try it - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70596588&postcount=797
Okay, who has followed my posts know my new Nexus 6P, which I bought from a guy wasn't recognizing my SIM card. (I'm apparently the second owner. He said that he imported the device so I assume that he was really the first owner)
Luckily I made it recognize the SIM card putting a tape on it at the SIM tray, but now my device keeps at No Service | Vivo.
Vivo is my carrier, but no matter what I do my Network Type at *#*#4636#*#* keeps at LTE/*I don't remember/CDMA. I've tried changing it in Settings/more/cellular network but didn't work either. Removing and putting SIM tray again didn't work as well.
Flashed factory image didn't work too. Also, flashing custom ROM didn't work.
Someone have a solution for it, please?
Since I fixed the unrecognized SIM with a simple tape I can believe something will fix this No Service trouble.
Had the same issue at my wifes old opo, the simpins inside the phone were broken. May yours are only bent if your lucky, hard to check without opening the backcover. Can you try another sim card first, friends, family or neighbors??? Or you need one tape more I had to replace the mobo. Took one of a broken phone cheap from the bay.

I'll try to tape it even more. I've checked over xda and a guy fixed it flashing February factory image. I'll try it as soon as I arrive home.

Hope you don't have to stay on it, good luck
Edit: is your simcardholder ok ?? May one site hangs and you don't have contact to the right pin.
Edit2: can you see the pins by using a bright flashlight ???

Yes, I get that, this was exactly my issue with the opo. Recognize but no service.
Your phone may be stuck on USA bands. The hidden menu apparently is buggy and once USA bands is selected by accident, you can't change it back. 7.1.2 was supposed to have added the ability to switch back to Auto, but I cannot confirm that. Look here. I know you are new, so to access the menu, youopen up the dialer and type this in- *#*#4636#*#*
I just noticed that I can switch to any (PRL) network in *#*#4636#*#*, but can't switch to LTE, GSM or WCDMA without the (PRL)...

United States
Cellular 800

My Nexus 6 (shamu), which works perfectly with the same Nano SIM, has all the Network Bands I quoted in my previous post + Class 15.
Not sure if my device should use Class 15, but I'm (was) using the same ROM on both (PureNexus Shamu and PureNexus Angler) and the angler doesn't work.
Download Chroma ROM to test it since the PureNexus quoted in the post you sent me is bootlooping in the Google Logo.
Just an EDIT...
I can select the Automatic bands selector, and it says that the Automatic was selected, which still doesn't give me any signal strenght.

In Chroma or PN? You may need to fastboot format your partitions, especially System coming from a custom ROM. Why not step back and fastboot format system, userdata and cache then reflash the custom PN ROM to try and get it booted. It also may take some time after changing bands to Auto. Maybe 5-10 minutes max. Let it settle.

I'm now downloading a factory image for 6.0.1 then I'll flash PureNexus again. I read in the thread that it needs the 6.0.1 vendor to boot.
I'll flash this 6.0.1 stock then I'll flash PureNexus. Fingers crossed to this work.
Anyway, can we talk via Telegram? You look like know more than I and I would love to keep talking to you during this proccess.
I'm @Debuffer.

And I meant I could select the Automatic Band in the latest 7.1.2 PN and/or stock rom.
Unhappily it didn't work.
Still No Service|Vivo
Just came from the tech and he tested the antenna. Everything is working great with the antenna. Anyway, I can't get any signal. He said maybe there's a problem in the SIM slot, and he showed me that the 6P is dual SIM
He told me to try finding a dual SIM tray and put my SIM in the slot 2.
Someone have any idea about what to do with it?
Hello, first of all I want to let you know that I am not an expert but have so far been able to convert my Axon A2017 to the US A2017U version.
Big thanks [email protected] for supplying the necessary files.
I have:
-unlocked the bootloader
-rooted the phone
-flashed successfully B20
However, When I upgraded to B29, I lost TWRP and the cell radio of the phone is non-responsive. It won't even turn on. Bootloader is sill unlocked. I made phone calls on my T-mobile network when it was the origional A2017 B8 version. So I believe the bandwidths are compatible.
I have already done the following troubleshooting: (note: WIFI currently works just fine)
-My network is with T-Mobile, and I have been using a different axon A2017U for over a year with no problems.
-When I type *#*#4636#*#* and got to phone Info says, GSM Service: Radio Off, and the Turn on Radio button does nothing.
- I have tried working with every setting in this menu with no luck.
-When I insert my SIM card that is working on my current axon 7 into the converted A2017U, it is able to pick up T-Mobile network u.s. LTE, (fast.tmobile.com) and T-Mobile US (tmus). However, there are no bars because the radio is not turned on.
-When I try to search for new networks an error message saying, "network search cannot proceed when the data service is enabled disabled it?" So I disable it and nothing happens except for an error message saying "error while searching for Networks".
-In network mode I have switched to every option available, LTE/wcdma/GSM, wcdma/GSM, and GSM only with no result.
I am currently running Android version 6.0.1 on build B-29. Any help to get the radio up and running to receive phone calls would be greatly appreciated. Everything else is working except for the phone radio to send and receive phone calls.
Thanks for any Help.
Do you still have your IMEI or did the partition get corrupted?

I check the number with several online checks, as well as T-Mobile, and they are unable to bring up any information about the number. I imagine it got blocked or corrupted during the upgrades.
What do I do to unblock it or make it functional again?
Go to settings>About>Status and check your IMEI number. If it's blank its noyt gonna work on any network...
You might be able to restore it if you have a backup of it - no-one will give you their backup as you then have their phone - or as a last resort, you might need to restore to the stock Chinese Rom again and see if that fixes it...
Good luck, I'm off to bed after a long backshift...

Thankfully the numbers are there on both IMEI slot 1 and IMEI Slot 2. Thanks for your help. I hope to hear from you after a good night of rest.
Flash the correct modem/bootstack for your device.

Sounds Good

You need TWRP. Just install it with axon7tool via edl if you don't have fastboot, or try axon7toolkit

Here's the latest update:
I loaded TWRP onto the phone and installed the file A2017U_N_Modem.zip. (Several Times)
nothing has changed. The radio is still turned off and no signal is being picked up from my carrier T-Mobile.
While loading it says: Loading A2017U_N_Modem for nougat system. I am not running nougat and I cannot find any other modem to download. Will that make a difference?
Any other suggestions are welcome?

You need to flash the A2017 modem, not the A2017U one

Okay it works! I've got signal but when I try to make a phone call and my other phone picks up I can't hear or say anything. Any idea what's happening? I have tried refreshing the signal with no luck.
Hey man, I'm having the same problem with my Axon 7, brand new A2017U. Turned it on for the first time and I haven't had an ounce of radio on. Same things you've tried I've tried and it refuses to work. Mine is not rooted and I don't want to. I've tried downgrading my update and to no avail. Factory reset etc. I've contacted ZTE and they said they have forwarded my details and my phone details, storage size, color etc. To the necessary representatives. I think I'm gonna be sent a replacement, but just wanted to let you know your not alone.
