No signal after reboot - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I hope there s a hope..)
I got a s4 and the moment I put in the sim card I noticed that it took max 5 min to get the network working. I thought it s not a big deal. Then the wifi was not working with stock and I rooted the phone and started playing with different ROMs. Every time I did a reboot it would take up to 5 min to get the signal, doesn't matter what ROM. 2 days I did a reboot(not the first one on cm12 with alucard kernel) and the phone couldn't get the signal, not after 5 min, not after 3 h. I put the sim in other phones and it worked, I put other sims in my s4 and it worked. When I put my sim in my phone after it had been in another phone it connects right from the start but after 2 min the signal disappears. I changed ROMs, flashed the same ROM, and cm13 and again and no luck. Now the sim is on Huawei p1 and when I get the notification tray down on the bottom it is written 25905 instead for the name of the mobile operator, which is strange. Is there a way to fix this?
Thank you!

Have you considered getting your SIM card replaced?
The carrier should do it for free.

I replaced it before buying the s4. And it also works on other phones.

OP, did U try to flash another MODEM for Ur device? Not some custom ROM, but MODEM? A have some signal troubles, but reflashing MODEM (lastest version for KK) via ODIN fix the problem.
U can find MODEMs and BLs here.

This thread should be in the Q and A section...

I just did and it doesn't work. I went today to their office and got a new sim and it didn't work either. Tried another sim from the same company and it didn't work either. I have no idea what's wrong...((

[Q] SIM card broke my two phones (can only make calls while just 2g is enabled)

Hi, I recently started having trouble with my gf's phone (Nexus 4 running lollipop 5.0, lte enabled, tmo). It started shortly after I enabled a SIM lock pin on the sim, but not sure if that's the cause or not... The phone started to intermittently drop signal, and would not make calls (it would just appear to be dialing, but you'd hear no ringing and never connect). When I'd restart the phone, I could usually make a call. I tried to fix it by restoring everything the stock image, rechecking the apn, making sure stock radio was installed, etc, but the problem persisted and eventually got to the point that voice calls did not work at all. LTE and data worked to get onto the internet, but once a call was attempted to be made, it'd lose all signal. I discovered eventually that if I switched off lte/4g/3g, and only kept gsm 2g on, I could make a voice call. Next I tried her SIM card in my phone (Note 2 on Android 4.4, t-mobile) and as soon as I put her sim in, my phone started doing the same thing. After switching back to my SIM (that was working just fine, before), now MY phone is stuck with the same problem! (Can only make calls with just 2g enabled). I'm at a total loss. Has anyone experienced anything similar, or do you have possible solutions/ideas on how to fix this?

I flashed back to stock image a couple of times via wugfresh toolkit, but got the same results each time. I did, however, just fix my note 2 by removing my sim (the one that was previously working), flashing stock via odin (didn't help in recovery), and then replacing the original sim. This leads me to believe that the sim in the n4 is somehow corrupted and once loaded, permanently changes some settings somewhere. (I hope that's the problem, and not the phone). I'll pick up another sim card from tmo tomorrow and try flashing stock again before loading it. Any idea what would cause this? The only thing I did different was set up sim lock on the card, and it seemed to work just fine for a while, till it didn't... Thanks for the help, I'll let you know if the new sim works.
Solved
For anyone who may be having the same problem, here is how I solved it. I picked up a new sim card from t-mobile, flashed a stock rom via toolkit (with the sim card not installed), loaded rom, installed sim, loaded correct apn. Everything works as it should now.

REWARD!! For anyone who can help me.

Hi Guys,
I will try and keep this as short as possible. I am on contract and have had my numbers for years.
Anyone who can help me will be rewarded.
I had my S6 Edge stolen. Within 30 mins I went to Vodafone (UK) and got a new sim card - cancelling the one in the S6.
The next day I phoned Vodafone to get the IMEI blocked.
I have an S4 I9505 from before my upgrade (Stock 5.0.1, stock Kernel, UK) Now it gets weird...
My sim card will not work in the phone.
My sim card works in any other phone.
Any sim card works in my phone.
MY SIM WILL NOT WORK IN MY PHONE!
I am no tech newbie, I changed the sim tray a couple of times first thinking it was that. Vodafone gave me 3 different sim cards - nothing.
I was in the Vodafone store for 2 hours last night trying to fix it, there are no bars on my account and the phone isn't blocked or barred. The phone is in good condition.
Tried factory reset and format.
If anyone can help me resolve this issue I will be sincerely grateful. If I cannot fix this great phone - I will be forced to buy a new 4G handset.
I currently have my sim in an old iPhone and am using the S4 for everything else, so I am ready to try anything.
Thanks guys in advance.

I prefer you to flash aosp rom like cynogenmod or note 5 port ^_^ . It might help your sim card to get work again. Remember to do backup first and install custom recovery . Warning : Your phone need to be root first . If your phone already rooted then you just do a backup and flash aosp rom
Did you try a factory reset from recovery mode? Reflash a stock ROM? IMEI is properly displayed from the dialler menu (*#06#)?

Note 3 N9005 Signal issue

Evening,
I have a signal problem on my N9005
Signal is just about non existent, so far, i've tried the following:
Factory resey/wipe cache
Flash modem with 2 different one, works good for 5 mins, then goes off again
Flashed about 5 different stock roms, same result, works fine for 5 mins, then stops
Flash a custom rom, same result lol
I'm now believeing it to be a hardware issue, unless someone has any ideas?
Change sim card would be step one .
Does this happen with all sim cards? Phone shows the correct IMEI? Was the phone ever dropped? Phone support's your carrier's radio frequencies? It worked properly with this carrier on a prior occasion ?

Broken K920 Air China

Hello,
I had CN ROM version with Kit Kat. Everything worked fine but one day I lose sim cards. I mean sim cards weren't detected and WiFi was 'Switching On' I mean flashing. Phone is constantly restarting by itself. I've done several factory resets, take out the battery and flashed phone with ROW ROOM (I've change the NON-HLOS file to get network) but nothing helped. Flashing went ok and I've got new ROM.
Phone is restarting after few minutes. I can not switch on WiFi and sim cards are not detected. Do you have any solution for that?
Thank you!
