hi my mate purchased a gs4 from is mate ,he asked me to root it and see if it is sim unlocked,i can put different sims in .EE,giffgaff,[o2 ] and vodafone,they do not bring a screen saying wrong sim or anything but i can go on to network search find the carrier ,but when i try to connect it states cannot connect to network,i have tried a IMIE search and the phone is not barred or blocked or anything sinister like that , i can get a signal with t mobile but i thought my EE sim would work in it strange any help please would be appreciated cheers
anyone? i tried my EE sim but it does not dial out ,could it be that it is blocked ? i think i will just hand it back to him

i got the exact same prob with a i9505 gs4 on JB then i updated it to stock rom kitkat 4.4.2 and its still the same with a o2 sim i can see the data arrows and the signal bars but other sims just signal bars but never connects to any network, if it was blocked it would ask for an unblocking code? would it not? did u get anywhere with this problem? my imei is ok and so is the serial no, and i checked and its not black listed and the phone works ok with wifi
Hello,
I recently bought a N9005 Note3 and got it unlocked from a store. Now when i came back to my home country i noticed t does not work on 2G network, it works fine on 3/4G but it wont work on 2G.
What could be wrong here? would flashing a GSM modem via Odin help?
Thanks
@huseinraj I think it hasnt been unlocked properly

That's what i thought too from reading here and there, and it looks like the Fix 2G, reboot, fix 3G,reboot using SPT seems to be the only way to fix it, however i dont have a SPT box and local shops here are charging over $100 to do the unlock so i wanted to see if there was any other way to fix this problem...
I bought this phone few weeks ago . Its a t-mobile carrier, but unfortunately , t-mobile does not work in my country. it works with the other sim perfectly but stuck on 2g only even if i change the network modes in the settings, meanwhile my network provider has a 4g network working on other phones, Please help.
also , when i try to view phone information by entering short code *#*#4636#*#* , it pops up a message that " the application does not work on this device. what can be the problem ?
PLEASE HELP ... tHANKS

UPDATE - 25/10/16 - Gave phone to Samsung Service center and they have updated me today that they found the radio is corrupted possibly so they have asked Samsung to give them a confirmation to proceed with Radio firmware reloading which includes IMEI re-coding. There's a chance of even them getting the device bricked of course but lets see what happens.
Hello all,
I have SM-N910G with latest stock rom (N910GDTS1DPI1).
Was using this phone on Reliance Jio VOLTE since end July and had set network more to LTE only (sicne RJio only has 4g LTE coverage).
Last thursday morning I noticed the phone is not registered on network and on trying to troubleshoot further by switching to a different (Vodafone) SIM, realized that the phone is only able to register on GSM (2G) networks and Edge data works too.
Have tried factory reset (and reloading of stock ROM thru ODIN including NAND erase using PIT files too) to check if I can get the phone to work on 3g/4g but no use. Seems like this is hardware issue (radio gone faulty?).
The phone is 18 months old so out of standard warranty hence I'm not much hopeful that Samsung Service center will be of any help. Before I take this there, just wanted to check if anyone else faced such issue before and have managed to sort the same out.
Cheers and thanks in advance.

Thanks but it's not an apn issue. The phone doesn't simply register on any 3g or 4g networks. Hence the thought that it's hardware issue.

What do you mean by not getting Volte on any SIM? It's only for Reliance Jio. For other service providers, you need to get a 4G SIM before you can use 4G.
My phone is now dead bricked and beyond repairs as confirmed by Samsung service center. I'm not spending 15k for motherboard change.
4g
I have idea 4g sim but when I insert it
My note 4 doesn't shows it it says no sim card
Insert sim when I put Jio sim I get no service/ Jio 4g
Emergency calls only signal when I tried bsnl 3g
& Tata Docomo 3g sims both sims getting network
Signal & I can call also but when I tried to connect to internet by using these 3g sims my mobile connects and switchs off suddenly I have to pull out battery or connect to charger to start the mobile
This is my problem

That's weird indeed. Have you ever tried any custom Roms or rooting because of which your Knox status would have tripped? In any case it's worth taking the phone to nearest samsung service center. They charge just 200 bucks to inspect the issue and another 200 to reload the software if needed. But in my case it was hardware fault so they couldn't do anything.

I haven't tried rooting yet and by the help of
A local mechanic who is a good friend of mine
And has a free entrance in local care center
We both went there and the care center gay
Tried to flash the mobile but no success now he says
That we should officially send the mobile to
The care center in a bigger city or like Mumbai
Where there are experts to tackle such weird problem

All the best mate. Just remember that they will ask you to sign up for Dead Brick risk which means you're OK if device goes dead during software flashing. The only way to get device working again is to replace motherboard which costs around 15k.
