It seems that after flashing the Nexus ROM for my Huawei Ascend XT, that my phone started to "lose" the SIM. Its been over the past few days, without warning shutting off phone calls and telling me to "INSERT SIM". The SIM is present, and I can't seem to find any issues with any of the apps. If I restart my phone, the phone cycles through "emergency calls only" to No service, then it finds service [ATT] and if I'm home it will find the MicroCell that I have. It will work for awhile and then suddenly needs me to INSERT SIM again. This is frustrating.
AS well, I've tried to upgrade to the B170 update through ATT and it won't do it....
I'm a novice at this, but all your vast input would be great for me!!! Any instructions you give me, please spell it out for me...I want to learn as well in case of future issues....
Try the Bare Naked ROM for this phone:

First of all, this is my first post and I would like to excuse my bad english ^^
Okey, so here's my situation. I bought a phone over the Internet from a private seller who claimed she did'nt know wether the phone was SIM-locked or not. She also claimed that she had used two sorts of SIM cards, with two different operators.
So, I tried with my card. It says (i have in Swedish, so i'll translate as good as I can) "No service". So I went in to Settings -> Network and at the top it says "Current Network: No Service" . I have tried everything in those menues, like choose network manually and such. Everything comes down to the same, No service at the little icon at the top screen.
So, I runned the Unlock-service that I found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293957. I did it step by step and it worked perfectly, except one thing; my problem stands.
So what should I do? Have i missed something? If the phone shows to be stolen, I think it's weird that I even got into the phone. I can use Wi-Fi and such, that works properly. Activesync, no problem at all.
What should I do?! Please, please help me!
Call the police.
Find out from a phone company if the IMEI is blocked.
Not a lot you can do but Call the authorities and get them to deal with it.
If the phone is reported stolen it wont stop the phone working as a PDA, it will just block it's usage as a phone.
Ebay has a link to check stolen phon (before you buy) - http://www.checkmend.com/uk/ - You need the IEMI number use *#06# to get it. The service isnt free, but is recommended by the Met Office.
eventually this helps you:
i've had a trinity in "active service" for about one year,
and i've noticed the following:
everytime i used a sim card which i had never used before
in the trinity, it tooks minutes to get the "no service" away.
after the fist initialisation of the new sim, every further
turning on the device (till i get a service) was much
faster.
so let the phone at least 10min with your sim, if you
would still no service, then you should check your imei.
and: sometimes you have to click on the "services" tab
in the title bar to get to the pin verification. for some
reason sometimes that did'nt come automatically frontwards
for me...
good luck & regards,
markus
i would check via the ebay link, if that comes up ok just reflash the phone with an radio and see if that works. If the imei is ok and the flash with the radio doesn't fix it then you might have a hardware issue.
Problem solved! I tried with yet another operator, and it worked! So the problem is locked. I'm going to the store tomorrow to lock it up. Hopefully that will do the trick. Thank's guys!
why go to a shop to unlock it when you can get it done for free on here
http://pof.eslack.org/trinity-unlocker/
I can't get that thing to work. It says "No service" with my SIM! I have posted in the thread for it but noone answers. Could someone help me?
Ok got this phone but it wont ring or recive calls ! .
After putting in my SIM card, entering my PIN code it still says no service. When you try and make a call it says "Not registered on network".
It was on T Mobile which I have had it unlocked via eBay. I got past the Google registration page by entering APN settings for my SIM card (O2).
Now I can user the browser and market etc but no calls.
I have done everything in THIS thread and think I have flashed it with
JFv1.43 RC9. (When I say think it seemed to flash but I cant see any difference so not sure if it worked).
Does anyone know how I can get the phone to work?
Thanks for your time
i have been in this same situation for about 3 weeks and after spending countless hours on phone and at store with tmobile 3 replacement phone 5 sim cards and a new number they close my account and reopened it this was just tonight so i am testing it out so far i have lost servie twice within 3 hours restarted my phone both times and regained service so im not sure if it is completely fixd just yet
Its really annoying such a simple thing. When I try to manually select teh operator in settings it says "Your SIM dosnt allow connections to this network".
I tried an orange SIM card and for some reason it puts the phone in airoplane mode and wont come out :s
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Anyone got any ideas on what could be causing this ?
Thanks
same boat
man I'm telling you that's been happening to me. except I upgrade to ION and then reverted back to haykuro's 6.0r1. everythig that;s happened to this guy has been affecting me
No service
I also have a problem with my G1. Bought it from my local polish netwerk (Era) and the phone works OK however, from time to time it looses the connection to network and it needs a reset in order to login to network again. Don't remember if it happened before they released the software which supported polish language. So what do you recon is it a hardware problem or did those useless local IT guys screwed sth up while translating android??
hi i have he same problem stuck in airoplane mode and no service has anyone found a fix yet????
I´m yet another user with the same problem. For a few hours yesterday I suddenly had service, but it stopped working in the evening again.
Any solution?
A similar problem. Tell me what to do. Thank you.

I just bought a fido sim card and I get the msg: "cannot register on this network. choose another network, or disconnect your data connection and try again" when i try to manually connect to the network. I have using this phone with at least two sim cards back in my outcry and i bought it independently from my previous network from an eshop in Ireland..
Any thoughts? Could be the ROM and radio installed?

Hi, I have lost all network functions. E.g. cannot send/receieve calls/sms. Everything else is fine. I have wiped all data and done a factory reset and put firmware jh1 and also jd1. No difference. The phone isn't stolen. Multiple sims work in other phones but not this one. What has happened? What can I do? I've been trying to get my phone working all day. PLEASE HELP!! If I try and get my balance I get a network error. If I try calling it beeps and hangs up. All sms messages will not be delivered and I will get a message 10 seconds later saying not delivered. Searching for a network I get 'unable to search networks during data service activated' and it offers to turn off the data service. I'm not sure if this is related.
AGAIN! PLEASE PLEASE help if you can. It might sound stupid or simple but any advice or help is appreciated. Basically I have a phone that cannot be used as a phone!! I beg you!! If you know something to fix this, let me know!!

Similar problem with 3 (Three) branded handset...
I got a Spica (Galaxy Portal) from ebay which seems to have been mis-flashed (is that a word?!) and wouldn't boot. I installed a new 'official' Samsung firmware and all seemed fine except that I couldn't connect to the '3' network. It is a '3' branded handset, I have a '3' SIM and am in a good 3G signal area. If I set it to only use 2G networks then it will connect to Orange as it's fallback 2G network and I can connect to Internet through GPRS/EDGE. However, I have realised that I cannot make/receive calls/texts! I can purchase items from the Market too.
I have tried various 'official' ROMs but to no avail.
The SIM works fine in my HTC TD2.
I'm unable to check the IMEI number now as I'm not at home, but could this be the reason for the problems or have I done something by flashing it with a generic Sammy ROM and not a '3' specific one (I know how '3' can be a bit strange)?
All ideas/suggestions gratefully received!!
to check ur IMEI just tyep *#06# in dial pad
happened to me i solved it by installing cyanogen 6.1.1 alpha 8.2
I bought a used phone from internet website, its worked great and it was locked on T-mobile UK. I got it unlocked from fastgsm and used my tesco sim with the phone.
The phone worked great for couple of days and on the third day it worked upto 11am (that is when i made the last call on the phone) and after that i am getting 00:00 Ended every time i press call even to voice mail.
it does not call anyone no texts either and when someone calls me it says the phone is switched off.
Steps i have taken to fix the issue:
I have swapped different sim cards.
i reset my phone through settings and diagnosis code.
I have updated the firmware to the 7740
I have installed a new unbranded UK retail firmware. its still running this firmware.
I have checked if the imei is blocked or stolen or something on a few websites nothing came up.
I have searched XDA to see if someone else has this problem and there are quite a few people here with the same problem but no solution.
I need help i have no idea what to do next
everything else on the phone works great no problems wlan connection keeps it connected and all the other features are fine its just the phone calls and text msgs which i cannot send or receive.
i have tested my sim on other phone it seems to be fine.
Please help i am not sure what to do next.
thank you and regards
Call Samsung support.
I've got a very similar problem - I can access the internet with my SIM but I can't make a call or send a text.
Omnia 7 - originally on orange but unlocked.
Any help appreciated.
ok then xda cant help me with this problem lets see if samsung support can do something about it. i have called them and i am taking the phone to their service center.
wish me luck i will report back if there is any news for other people with similar problem.
I have the same problem. Ive done almost all the steps as you have. Im beginning to think that its a hardware related problem. Maybe the sim-reader.. Well, i bought another phone but I hope to fix it anyway. I'll be back to check your progress in the matter.. gl
I can also contribute that I did the unlock via fastgsm.. (without any errors) And that may be the cause. But 1 thing is different though, I could never make any calls at all. You said that u were making calls.. I had a very long email conversation with fastgsm that ended with him not responding to me at all. But that was some time ago and I deleted the emails.. Not that I think it would help. Now I use the phone as a surfing pad (wifi/data ok) its sad really... lol
That's a terrible problem, I feel for you guys.
Definitely get it contact with your provider or SAMSUNG to get a replacement.
I can't think of any settings which you could change other than the obvious ones.
I never tested the phone out when I first got it, but I checked to see if it was unlocked by putting in a new sim card. Seemed to be unlocked. I did the "root" method on here to flash back to an older OS which worked for what I needed it to do. But ever since I got the phone, calls are constantly missed (I can use another phone to call this mobile and the mobile won't ring, it'll go to voicemail), my calls are constantly dropped, I rarely can call out, if I am able to call out the other person might not be able to hear me. The only thing that works well is the texting. I use Ting as my provider and have spoken to them many times because the original problem was that I couldn't access my voicemail and it kept giving me a mmi error. They gave me the voicemail number to directly call which I've been doing to get around the error of using the built in voicemail system. They've stated verizon phones aren't the most compatible with their system and they suggested maybe the sim card isn't functioning properly. I've spoken with their customer service at least four times over the last 8 months but these problem never really went away.
Anyone have any idea what I can do? I need a reliable phone now for phone calls. Should I try flashing back to stock 6.0? Or do you think it has nothing to do with what I did to get the "root" on it? This is the guide I followed:
