Hello there,
I undertook to unlock the bootloader of my xperia x compact, of course without saving anything (bye the DRM keys), I then used the fastboot to install Paranoid Android v7.2.3, success after the second attempt.
So the phone started very well, but no SIM card recognized at the start of the phone. Possibly PIN code appeared after 10 min of ignition, loop on the "unlocking in progress" and then nothing, no network.
I have been back several times on the official rom via Sony Companion without success. Last night I tried to flash a rom stock with Flashtool. The operation was going well and oh miracle the sim card was detected directly, so I'm configuring the phone and installing all my applications, a reboot after all that and the SIM card had disappeared again.
Since I tried Flashtool several times without success, downgrade to 6.0.1 either.
After hours and hours of research I still do not have the solution, I have crossed several times on forums for the same kind of symptoms but always accompanied by an absent IMEI, but when I type *#06# my IMEI is displayed correctly .
If someone has already encountered this kind of problem I would love to talk to him. Thanks for reading me
Good night
PS: In other bug, the options for developers who freeze or the camera that does not take a picture (freeze when I want to take a picture)
PS2: sorry for my english guys

Yes I have selected my APN, edited as my carrier said. The biggest problem is that the sim card is not detected immediately at startup. And when the sim lock pop up (about 5min after starting the phone) validation of the pin code is much too long to be normal. The code is accepted but I have no network, and when I try to search manually in the settings I have a loop on 'searching'. I think the problem comes from the modem / radio but I do not know too much these points, I just follow tutorials on the internet.
I say start from scratch but use Flashtool

I've already started from scratch with flashtool, several times ...
Some news of my problem.
I have since tried several times to change rom, to flash the modem / radio.
Now my sim card is recognized, but still no network. I have wrote my APN correctly but still nothing.
The network appeared only once after the installation of Paranoid Android, but as in my previous post, after a mobile reboot nothing.
Namely that in the phone information menu, line data service: Disconnected and in this menu enable data connection does not change anything (I can't even enable it). Select radio band gives me 3 choices (Automatic, USA, Japan) and when I click on Automatic I get Set [Automatic] Unsuccessful.
If anyone can help me, I'm really starting to feel hopeless.

Hi, i had the same problem. To enter the pin straight away simply go to the quick settings and check if you have the LTE tile there. If not add it. Then hold down on the LTE tile and it should open mobile data settings and then it takes about 5 seconds and it should ask for pin. I have no idea why it is like so but currently i am on paranoid android 7.3.1 and have no problems. Best wishes!

Hi and thank you for your help
The situation has evolved since, the phone asks for the sim code directly but I still have no network. (see my last message)
Edit : Just noticed that i have an error in flashtool when flashing any rom "those data are not in fsc script and will be skipped reset kernel cmd debug, would you wish to continue ?
Someone ?

Yes all boxes.
Here is my phone info
I can't manage to set radio on

Something similar happened to me recently and it was fixed by selecting my provider via wireless networks > mobile networks > service providers
In my case AT&T was selected when I chose Tmo and rebooted everything was fine. Good luck.

Ok so here's my problem.
I have an I9505 previously with a GE custom ROM and modem version XXUEML2, everything was working fine so far, the only "strange" thing was whenever I reboot the device the Cell Network will take about 3 minutes to reconnect, and I constantly lost the 4g connection which I attributed to problems within my carrier.
So a couple days ago I re-installed my custom ROM (was having problems with the Kernel) and after it boot back I wait to my Cell Network to connect, which never happen. So I went ahead, format everything, re-install the custom ROM and no luck.
I tried everything, updating the Baseband to XXUEML6. Install the Stock ROM (which was locked, but the store where I get it unlocked it by warranty), install another Stock ROM (right now I have the I9505XXUFNC4_I9505PHNFNC1_PHN ROM) and I still cannot get signal).
Did my modem just died, or the "warranty" guys unlock my device in a wrong method. I don't think is a problem with my IMEI 'cause I still have the same as the dive box says.
Hope someone can guide me before I take it back. Thanks.

Well, when I bought the device, it was intended to be unlocked, but for a strange reason my device (only mine 'cause we bought 2 the same day) came carrier locked (MEO from Portugal) So I sent it back to warranty. After a week I get my device back "unlocked" (Same ROM, IMEI) but I notice that it was rooted, which only makes me think that they take it to a third party which unlocked the cellphone with a method that required root. I didn't care, I had signal and 3G,

There use to be possible using this guide, with the old firmwares as far as i know is not possible anymore unless you still have that firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2282683
The other way is by an unlocking code ( you can buy in many places) once is unlock , stays unlock..no matter what you flash
Try something go Settings/connections / More networks/Mobile networks/ network Operator/ choose your carrier and see if it let you register, try others and see what kind of message you get

Already tried to choose my carrier, but sometimes it doesn't even appear, and when it does, connecting to it just throws and error saying "Not Registered On Network".
What I fear is that somehow they unlocked it using the Ariza patch (or other unlock method) which should not be used.
Also after digging some info, that kind of error happens when the device have been IMEI locked, which could be also a possibility given that my SIM works on any other device, but not otherwise. I will have to give a call to support service to discard this theory.

Hi ,
I also feel the same that is the problem , it has not been unlock right.
check with them , let me know what they tell you.
Ok, I have more information, typing on the dial *#0011# to get the Service Mode Menu, it says at the bottom IMEI CERTI: NA. But if y dial *#06# I get my correct IMEI, is something wrong with the EFS folder?

Hello,
I bought my Note 3 mobile and decided to flash C-Rom!
At the morning of one day I flashed the rom successfully. Later I installed all apps I wanted. I have my phone rebooted a lot of times with no problem. Some time at the afternoon of the same day I pick up the phone to stare at it! I activated the LTE option and deactivate it again. This was not the first time of doing it! After that the network signal was missing! I rebooted the phone, but it doesn't ask me for a PIN any more. I used my sim at another phone and it asked for a PIN. I used another SIM at my phone but it didn't ask for a PIN.
After dialing *#06# at Dialer a popup dialog shows up. The title of this dialog is MEID and the content is B0000000!
At settings>About phone>Status> the MEID is full of zeroes but the IMEI seems OK.
At the same screen i see the following:
Network - Searcing for Service
Mobile network type - Unknown
Mobile netwok state - Disconected
Service state - Out of service
My phone number - Unknown
MIN - Unknown
PRL version - Uknown
ICCID - Unknown
Thanks everyone in advance
Very strange.... without doing anything like flashing stock or modem?????

The reason is unknown but it seems like your phone lost a valid IMEI/baseband.
Can you check the Baseband version?
Try to flash the stock firmware, or flash the baseband for your device.
The problem suddenly appeared and that's what makes me feel uncomfortable. The baseband number is N9005XXUENC2. I will try to flash whole firmware, but does anyone know how can I flash only the baseband? I don't want to stay with the original ROM!

Extract modem.bin and NON-HLOS.BIN files from the stock firmware, and flash via Odin.

Finally I was able to solve the problem. It is a problem with C-Rom and 4g option. I am going to write a new reply by tomorrow and also to the forum. I appreciate the help guys.
Thanks a lot
The problem is with the LTE activation/deactivation.
I am from Greece with COSMOTE provider. Here, in Greece, at the moment we have to pay an extra fee to the provider in order to have the option of using 4g. The steps as I believe are the following:
1). I am not paying this fee at the moment so I am not able to use 4g.
2). I activate 4g and immediately I deactivated it. I did not want to open it, just touching the selection at the notifications. This option is at the notifications when you slide down the notification bar using 2 fingers.
3). Then the signal goes off and I had to re-flash stock rom once again before flashing the custom rom. The problem has to do only with the signal and everything else works as charm in the C-ROM.
The C-ROM version which has this problem is this C-RoM-KK-v7.1-20140622-hlte.zip
Hi Guys,
I am writing this Thread believing that I will get a solution as Yota company has not provided any solution after 15 days trouble shooting. I just brought the phone from Russian seller through eBay.com to India and after 2 months of fight from the local customs office I just got my phone. I was very happy and was floating in air to have the first dual screen phone in my hand. The phone was flawless with dual screen was working awesome. The phone came with lollipop update. I switched on the phone with out inserting the simcard, the phone prompted for a small 350 MB update and I just update the phone. Then I just inserted the Simcard after which i started facing issue. The issue was the phone is able to read and shoe the service provider name but there was no network signal and it was showing only emergency calls. When i tried to make calls it showed network no registered. I tried with different simcard which resulted in the same issue. I though it might be a simcard issue and checked with my old phone but there was no simcard issue. So i just contacted the Yota tech team through mail to help me on this issue. They asked me do some basic troubleshooting but there was no use after 15 days they asked me to ship the phone to nearest service center which is in Russia. The issue is to and back from Russia customs will cost me the price of 2 Yotaphone fist generation phone price. So I through of resolving this issue myself and researched in online. I found that Samsung phones were also facing the same issue after update and tried all the solutions given in internet but there was no use. Finally there was a solution asking to root the phone and install the ariza patch which would solve the issue. I just rooted my phone and when I installed the ariza it showed it was not compilable for yotaphone 2. I just searched in XDA forums and could not find anyone reporting the similar issue with a solution. So I through of creating new thread in hope of getting a solution in this issue. Please help me in this issue by creating a patch or any solution which will me help me out of this. I am not able to use the phone as the basic call function is not even working reset the phone is a heaven.:crying::crying::crying:

Do you still have this problem?
I wasn't sure at first, I thought it was my sim card, but I have tried 2 different networks sims and they both get no signal in my Yotaphone 2...
The network's name does appear, so the sim must be being read somewhat, but I always get no signal.
I literally have no idea what to do.
I too turned the phone on without a simcard, flashed the RU latest rom, flashed TWRP, rooted it etc, surely that has nothing to do with it...?
@bharath9962 ! I fixed it!
I have no idea why this happened, and I spent a few hours trying to fix it, very angry. I downgraded to 4.4 to see if it would help, put back the native China rom that came with my phone (accidentally deleted my backup too...)
I bought a new sim card just for this phone because the old one did not 'work'.
This is not a popular phone so it's hard to find information, anyway... I'm very relieved now. I can only imagine you gave up...
I found the answer here - thewichitacomputerguy.com/blog/how-i-fixed-your-sim-card-does-not-allow-connection-network-g1
1. Open the phone dialer
2. Enter: *#*#4636#*#* (Once entered, you will be taken directly to a "Testing" page) [4636 spells INFO]
3. Tap Phone Information
4. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and you should see a button that says radio off. Hit this button and when it reads radio on Hit it again to turn the radio back on. <-- (Not a Typo)
I rebooted and waited a few seconds, no signal. I turned on airplane mode, turned it off, and it worked!
Now I can go back to RU 1.99 and reinstall all my stuff...

My country is in Asia but I believe this does not matter - the problem was that somehow the radio (cell phone function) was 'off'/glitched, and had to be turned on+off to make the phone function again. Using a different country's sim card would not fix this problem.
As I wrote above, we both share the fact that we first turned our phones on with no sim, and updated. Maybe just a coincidence...
Just try the guide and please let me know if it is fixed!

If you already flashed the phone to latest EU 5.0, you can skip 1-5
1. download via FTP: fw.ydevices.com/YotaPhone2/YotaPhoneFlasher/yotaphone2_flasher.exe and install
2. run flasher and download latest EU rom (2 - 5- 7)
3. turn off the phone and turn it on while holding volume down - this will boot the phone in "downloading..." mode
4. in the flasher press 1 (Flash the cellphone)
5. the phone is now on 5.0.0-EU1.1.124b and 2G is not working at all and 3G is connecting only to 2100 MHz (on my cell network)
6. download via FTP: fw.ydevices.com/YotaPhone2/Firmwares/CN/4.4.3-S01-003-CN1.0.3.32a.zip
7. unzip the file and copy \radio to c:\program files (x86)\yotaphone_flasher
8. run cmd and go to c:\program files (x86)\yotaphone_flasher
9. repeat step 3.
10. run next lines:
fastboot flash modem radio\NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash sbl1 radio\sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash rpm radio\rpm.mbn
fastboot flash tz radio\tz.mbn
11. reboot the phone and enjoy 2G and strong 3G signal

Actually I flashed my Yotaphone with the chinese radio the first time, but I don't get good connectivity.
Anyways I try to do what you wrote, but when I tipe the first line (first fastboot command), cmd keep saying waiting for the device... maybe is that I'm impatient but nothing happens.
I try other USB ports and nothing works...
So actually I don't know if I'm doing it right or if I have to wait for a longer period of time (10 minutes or more).
Any help would much appreciated.
Cheers!
Hi there,
you don't have ADB drivers installed. Google for "universal adb driver" and install. There is driver included with yota 5.0 firmware (C:\Program Files (x86)\yotaphone_flasher\Driver\Google), but any other adb driver should work as well.
And use original yota usb cable!!!
It shouldn't take more that a few seconds for those commands to execute.

Had the same problem
Hi all, I had the same problem when I flashed russian firmware (YD201) over my phone which originally had honkong firmware (YD206).
I can inform that for me it also worked to flash the Chinese firware with yotaflasher.
However, when I tried to only flash the radio, it seemed it did not work. So I flashed the complete chinese kitkat firmware with yotaflasher and then afterward just removed/renamed the radio folder when flashing the newest russian lollipop firmware. Everything working great now, even was able to do some ota's without any problems since the ota's did not update anything of the radio img's.
And indeed you first need to make sure that you have the fastboot drivers installed and your device gets recognized as fastboot device by your PC.
You can test this by doing "fastboot devices". If you device turns up there as a fastboot devices, then the drivers and connection from pc to phone are ok.
Good Luck!
Thank you deepmnd and tomgaga.
Actually I had to activate developer options... And then reinstall the ADB cause, aparently I had it but it didn't work.
After that the instructions worked perfectly, but I still have network issues.
I don't know if it is because I have a MVNO (Mobile virtual network operator) and the phone has to change between the networks ( the one that provides the network and the MVNO).
I think that when it changes from one net to the other is when I lose connectivity and sometimes I have to search the network and choose it manually.
So this problem actually happened to me and the solution was to activate Roaming services (but I dont' know if is actually the same problem).
Anyways I can see that I connect to EDGE, HSPA/HSDPA and LTE.
For sure there is a way to monitor the network and check wich ones works.
Another guess is that being a phone for the chinese market, and the lack of the 900mhz band is causing this ¿?
So at the moment I'm losing signal just by walking on the street and I live in a big city. It seems that LTE and H works fine but I don't have a a way to assure this.
When I will have a spare time I will try to reflash the phone with the instructions deepmnd provided and see if it will work.
Thank you for your help!
Any advice will be appreciated!!
Update:
I try tomgaga approach I will test it just to see if is the network or my provider
Does anybody know which bands different firmwares support?
Reception is incredibly bad in my case (206 flashed with EU firmware).
It'd be nice if somebody has any info on unlocking different bands for yotaphone2.

Here you have the bands
https://www.frequencycheck.com/compare-devices/qkjseR/yota-yotaphone-2-yd201/yota-yotaphone-2-yd206
I have the same problem as you, I will try this weekend to downgrade to the older chinese rom and check if the reception get better.
And if then to the latest RU rom.

Thanks for that, it helps a lot to clear the situation regarding the two models.
Now, taking in account deepmnd´s solution above, would it be possible to find those missing bands from the original 206 which are not available to the updated (and then international, 201-) version and add them individually, file by file via the fastboot flashing?
I followed deepmnd's instructions, and my phone now connects to GSM/EDGE, which was not possible before using the EU Radio (latest EU rom). Thanks for this!
Unfortunately it now preferably (!) connects to EDGE, although the LTE/WCDMA-Option is prioritized. I can force the phone to connect to WCDMA by using the WCDMA-only-option, but in this case it does not commit a fallback to EDGE if 3G is missing and I have no connectivity at all, unless I change the band-options and force a connect to EDGE. I'd like it to switch between the bands automatically, as my YD201 did without problems (in Germany).
Any hints to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance, Knut

Fix for Yotaphone 2 YD206 from China
If you already flashed the phone to latest EU 5.0, you can skip 1-5
1. download via FTP: fw.ydevices.com/YotaPhone2/YotaPhoneFlasher/yotaphone2_flasher.exe and install
2. run flasher and download latest EU rom (2 - 5- 7)
3. turn off the phone and turn it on while holding volume down - this will boot the phone in "downloading..." mode
4. in the flasher press 1 (Flash the cellphone)
5. the phone is now on 5.0.0-EU1.1.124b and 2G is not working at all and 3G is connecting only to 2100 MHz (on my cell network)
6. download via FTP: fw.ydevices.com/YotaPhone2/Firmwares/CN/4.4.3-S01-003-CN1.0.3.32a.zip
7. unzip the file and copy \radio to c:\program files (x86)\yotaphone_flasher
8. run cmd and go to c:\program files (x86)\yotaphone_flasher
9. repeat step 3.
10. run next lines:
fastboot flash modem radio\NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash sbl1 radio\sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash rpm radio\rpm.mbn
fastboot flash tz radio\tz.mbn
11. reboot the phone and enjoy 2G and strong 3G signal

Thank you! I had missed calls and did not know what caused them. Then I noticed this happened when I was not on LTE network but on WCDMA or 2G network. And this seems to have solved the issue for me as well.

I'm also facing the same issue since yesterday, if you get any solution please update me.
Thanks
Have you guys any update on this? I'm having the same issue. Tried all kinds of resets, flashes, etc. (except for QFIL). It happened to me a few weeks ago too but the phone just started working again after 1-2 days. The issue seems to be that the radio won't turn on. One interesting thing I did notice was that my phone seems to be detecting my SIM as Canadian, which it's not. This occurred when I did a fresh CyanogenMod flash. When doing the initial setup, CyanogenMod flashes up a message about detecting the source location of the SIM card and then sets the language option to match.
I've contacted zuk.eu about it but no word back yet. Not holding my breath. I'll try and get my hands on a SIM card from a different mobile operator after work and see if that makes a difference.
Well, another case of Zuk Z1 with the "no service" (in the shorcuts the airplane mode is off but in the power menu is on even having reset the phone). I wiped everything, I flashed different roms, in the end I flashed with QFIL the stock rom with his recovery, and there is no way to fix the problem.
I'm trying to make a list of users that has happened the same because apparently is not a single fault.

Add me to the list .
Since about 2 weeks I get "no service" with airplane mode in power menu.
I think I had a similar problem some months ago, when I pressed the LTE button in pull down menu. But it was working again after some minutes or reboot or something like this.
I use two sims, and when the problem started 2 weeks ago, I think one of both SIM cards was working longer than the other one.
In the evening I saw, that one of my sim cards (calls + sms) did not have signal (0 bars), but I was not investigating this, because the other SIM (mobile data) was working without problems.
The next morning, the mobile data sim was without signal too and at "no service".
All was on stock rom. Now I tried some CM13 and different kernels, but this did not help anything.
Hopefully there will be something somewhere to get our phones back to work

Apart from you I have found two more cases.
One on one phone repair web and another who has answered my posting on the Zuk Mobile Facebook page.
Airplane mode error fixed?
What sorcery is this?!.
I had already given up with the Zuk Z1 airplane mode always on error. There was no way to remove the message "No Service" even after full wipe and flashed a rom+recovery stock (COS 12) with QFIL.
Several weeks later I decide I'm going to use the phone as a media player, back to flash TWRP recovery with Mauronofrio Tool All In One and install the official CM13 ROM (snapshot 20160418). Before I used the unofficial CM13 version of Coldbird (with the mm-firmware.zip).
A few days later, out of curiosity, I look if the airplane mode is still activated in the advanced power menu and is listed as disabled!. I insert the sim, in the *#*#4636#*#* the radio is on, and now I could make and receive calls (and connect to LTE / H / 3G networks) the last three days without problems, and I've even been in areas without coverage and then the phone reconnected with no problem.... !
Now I'm using the 20160602 nightly CM and Radioactive Reborn Kernel smoothly (only some reboots occasionally). I still do not know what happened with the phone and if it has solved the problem at all or is temporary and will fail again.
@Kausik2888, @gkanaje and @bromän report the same problem in this thread
Hello friends,
Even i am facing the same problem. The phone is always on 'Aeroplane' mode.
I tried CM12.1, CM13 and again flashed the stock ROM, but no use. The phone never comes out of the 'Aeroplane' mode. The GSM Radio status is always OFF and cannot turn on the radio from the phone info menu (*#*#4636#*#*)
Initially it was working fine but since i was not getting good signals inside my room i changed the preferred network from '4G(recommended)' to '3G' and boom !
The phone has lost the signals from that day. The phone detects my simcard, the IMEI's are valid but 'No service' / 'Aeroplane On'
Attaching logcat that i took after i rebooted my phone - https://pastee.org/p4rmf
Am also encountering the sane aeroplane mode problem in lenovo zuk z1 which I bought a month back.. Guys please suggest me the solution what should I do? Is there any way to overcome this problem
For me it was same issue few days back in my Zuk Z1. I read some where that it is 4G band related issue. So, i applied few steps and now it is working -
1. Take sim out from phone (no need to power off). Put aeroplane mode off from both power button option and settings.
2. Power off mobile. Put Sim back in some time (1 hr) and change preferred network from 4G to 3G.
No service radio service off on sim

Hi good people, I am facing a problem. Around 8 hours back I tried calling someone but the call didn't connect so I restarted the phone and then I lost the network. I tried reboot, flashed different ROMs (unofficial CM14, cm13 nightly build n MM nougat backup), tried with GAPPS and without GAPPS but the problem is persisting. I even tried swapping the Sim cards before that but of no use. I tried debugging by using *#*#4636#*#* but ping test is failed and also there is "TURN RADIO ON" I believe ideally it should be "TURN RADIO OFF". please have a look at the screenshots. I'm almost dying without making important calls.
Update: Guys I have got it working.. Kindly look into my below posts. Please don't misguide people for small issues.
Thanks
In the screenshot we can also see, GSM SERVICE IS OFF. it stays the same even after clean flashing a new custom ROM.
Got it working. Flashed latest COS ROM file however the situation was still the same. Then I removed sim, switched on airplane mode restarted. After reboot inserted Sim then again restarted n then I got the signal
1. Removed Sim card, switched on airplane mode from both power menu and notification toggle.
2. Restart, inserted Sim card and switched off airplane setting from setting. (Notification toggle and power menu didn't work) then got the network.
Please note I tried with only one sim in sim 1 tray. Later I got the network for 2nd sim as well

Which rom did you flash and what was your method of flashing?
You also said simply flashing didn't work. It was what you did with reboot, aeroplane mode and taking out and reinsert the Sim that worked?
I've had the same problem for almost a month now... and i gave my phone to the service center. They called up to inform me that its a motherboard failure and they'll fix it.. I'll provide further info when I get my phone back (probably in 3-4 days)
P.S I tried almost every method to make it work. So if you couldn't make it work in first 2 days or so, dont waste your time and just give it for the servicing (make sure its in Stock OS so that they dont ask any questions about root xD )

I flashed almost every latest ROM. But no ROM got the network back. So as a last resort I flashed COS 12.1 and still didn't get the network. Then I removed both the sims, activated flight mode restarted the device, left it couple of minutes and inserted only one sim in first slot. Holla I got the network. Then everything is back to normal
If u r facing the same problem I would suggest u to activate flight mode n restart. If it doesn't work try by removing sim cards, if it still doesn't work try COS 12.1.

Usual procedure of flashing. Wipe cache, dalvik, system and data. Flash ROM + Gapps. Reboot
Try to search in the forum. There is a lot of threads with the same problem with the Zuk Z1. It is a hardware problem.

Your modem and baseband sections may be damaged. Modem structure is hidden under qualcomm structure. To Access and repair those sections, you need to do some modifications. I managed to make my Zuk Z1 worked again with some tweaking. Altering that part of the phone is illegal due to its restricted elements such as IMEI number. That's why I cannot post a tutorial here. İt is not allowed. However, I can help you if you personally contact me. I hope you get your signal back soon.
