Twice I lost phone service. I still had data but my sim was being displayed as missing. Weird. The first time it took me three days to recover from it using msmdownload. Also, is there anyway to turn off the update notification?
no problem with cellular, but i got widevine L3 after the update. had to download the whole update 2gb from oxygen updater and install it again to get the L1 again and it worked
No issues like that on usa T-Mobile and still have L1.
I have TMobile . It's odd. I don't understand how its failing to recognize the sim card yet I still have 5g.
Yes, strange. Assuming you Cleaned SIM card with electronic spray and reseated in the tray?
Sim was gtg. I rolled back and all is good.

complicated story. recently purchased an "unlocked" optimus 7 phone off of kijiji and it was working on my fido simcard, but it only worked until i got home and synced with my computer played around with the simcard and battery and was alittle rough with it, then the "unlocked" phone detects no sim on my phone. had a feeling i got ripped off. but awkward enough i think i had a hand in making it not work (i tried putting the sim card in without pulling out the battery, so i suspected that i might have messed up the hardware)
few days later, plan was up for fido so i switched to telus, but because the plan i got did not include data, so i am not sure if it would actually connect with a "unlocked" telus phone, i just want confirmation from anybody that "Any sim card can work with Any telus phone?"
story aint over
hoping that it was my fault for only messing up with the software by attempting to unlock myself and that it had nothing to the hardware, i went to pacificmall to somebody reliable to solve my problem and asked to "re-unlock" it for me.
result was that he told me it might be a hardware issue, and that he tried other sim cards and phone had not detected any signal.
what happened later on was i attempted to fix hardware my self by looking to push the simcard holder down thinking that it might be because it was loose from be trying to jam the simcard in earlier.
end result, phone is now detecting my telus simcard, and so my main question now is "i dont know if its becuase it is unlocked that made it work, or do all telus sims work on all telus phones and i fixed my phone by some retarded method"
All Telus sims work on all Telus branded phones, no matter what you may have done to it.
not working anymore
after having reception for one day, it ain't working anymore.
can anyone provide any help? would it be a good idea to sent it to Lg for fix?
Dude, I don't know for sure, but you probably did a short-circuit on the SIM socket when you tried to insert the SIM with the battery connected =/
Hi guys. I bought recently from a guy an S4 I9505.
When he has his sim card everything worked ok, when I put mine there was an circle with a line in it and I couldn't make any calls or send any text messages, but I've seen my contacts are there. Okay, just played with it something like 10 minutes and after all, the signal came in.
Right now, I wanted to sell it and that problem came out, when that guy put his sim in it won't make any calls.. and instead of signal bars it shows a circle with a line in it. (in settings network is unrecognized, contacts are recognized). When putting back my sim card I saw there was the same trouble, no signal at all.. no calls or messages. After a while the signal came. (something like 10 min).
Now, if i remove MY sim card and put it back it works.
But if I put another sim card (even if it's the same network) it takes 10+ minutes for signal bars to come.
It's annoying.. the guy said he bought it from UK, but he son updated his software. (he has now I9505XXUGNG8 which is from Slovenia).
Do you think that if I put UK software to it that problem would disappear ?
And how can I find out what software originally came with my phone ? I mean original region.. Kies won't work with I9505 at all..
Thanks for reading this at least, lol.

You could flash a later modem from here through Odin:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50965837&postcount=2627
It is up-to-date with latest CSC and other stuff..
No one ?
I've downloaded the software for its region(It is from France), and still no luck.. installed a lot of modems and no luck.
Signal comes.. but it takes a while(like 2 minutes) if I install ANOTHER sim card, even if it is the same network.
It is just like it gets used to one sim.. (yeah, weird).
So.. is there anything that I can do ?
I don''t think it is hardware related.. because if I reboot the phone without changing sim card signal comes in 5-10 seconds, this happens only if I change sim card.

I think modem has some conflict with rom or efs has some sort of corruption, backup efs and format efs then if not works
Try to flash complete firmware of your region from scratch by removing old rom, regardless of what it has. Check IMIE and modem status while it has no signal, also check by enabling airplane mode and removing your sim card and start with empty and again put your sim card then what happens?
Hit thanks if it helps...
Rom is full stock flashed 2 hours ago for Frannce (XXUFNC4), didn't change modem or anything, it is just like it came.. so it shouldn't be any conflict between the rom and its modem, lol.
About EFS.. I've heard it's risky playing around with it and I'm not evenn sure if that would solve my problem, so that wouldn't be an option.
I haave IMEI, as I said.. everything works normally if you don't change sim card. (I don't even lose signal or things like that).
EDIT: Even if network is not working, IMEI is at its place, it is available(tried even *#06# and it is showing the correct IMEI).
So, EFS it's allright? Is there any way to check if my EFS partition is "working"?
And if not, can I use EFS professional to get it working? If yes, is there any tutorial?
Thanks.
Hi, I recently bought a new Yotaphone2 (YD206) taking advantatge of the Singles' day discounts, but I am having some trouble connecting to the mobile network.
Since I did not have a nanosim available from the beggining, I started by updating its ROM (I used the last Russian one, while keeping the Chinese radio) and then I rooted it. So far so good.
The thing is, after my microsim was cut into a nanosim (the guy at the mobile phone store did it, using one of these "staplers"), I inserted it in the tray but it is not recognized on the phone. On the screen you can read "No sim card - emergency calls only".
At first I thought it was the radio, and I even flashed it again. I also went back to the original chinese rom, with no success. I think it's not a radio problem, since I can get some statistics in the *#*#4636#*#* menu, but I am not a 100% certain. Of course, I've already tried rebooting, setting the airplane mode on and off, removing and inserting the sim again, etc. Apart from that, wifi, bluetooth and everything else work as expected.
The sim card works, because using a microsim adapter I can fit it in my Nexus 4 and it gets signal. There are three options here: either the radio is not properly configured/flashed, the phone is faulty or the sim has been wrongly cut.
Could you help me troubleshoot the problem?
Solved!
Solved! It was the sim card, it was not properly cut. I used some sandpaper so sand one edge that was a bit rough. I didn't even have to reboot, the phone asked for my pin inmediately. I'm using the last EU rom with the chinese radio.
Yay! Happy!
I have the same issue now and my yotaphone 2 was bought in China... I've tried the sim cards from two companies, both didn't work. I doubt I received a defective product.
After I unboxed the phone, it was working with an AT&T sim card for few hours. When I got home where I have wifi, I updated the software and didn't pay much attention to it. few hours later i found out the phone can no longer read any sim cards. I tried both sim slot, different sim cards. factory reset and etc.
Is there any way I can download the software and re-do it before sending it back to Asia for repair?
So I got the phone Friday and everything was working perfectly except for the texting coming so I called Verizon and had them the cdma_less feature. After that my text came flooding in. So I used the phone all day and later on I lost signal completely. So I shut my phone off and on multiple times and I would get LTE but no voice over LTE so I couldn't make phone calls and then my phone signal stopped again.
I called technical support and they did a bunch of resets on the network side and still couldn't get it working so they suggested that I get a new SIM card. I got a new SIM card and still didn't work so I called technical support again and they went through a bunch of things with me and finally they had me move it over to SIM card slot 2. They did get it going in SIM card slot 2 but I've also read people online having troubles with this when they had it in sim 2 and that most were using sim 1.
Has anyone else had this issue and what slot are you using? I'm worried that it's going to happen again. Which SIM card slot are you using and do you think the SIM card slot is an issue? I don’t understand why it would work for a whole day in slot 1. Thanks in advance.

I have been having this same issue after updating to 9.0.10. I was on the phone with Verizon and OnePlus for 50 minutes. Still have not gotten the issue resolved.
If anyone has any insight, it would be greatly appreciated.
Have you switched Sim card slots? Ever since I went from 1 to 2 I haven't had one issue
I read somewhere that a factory reset fixes it
9.0.10 breaks Verizon connectivity. You might get some LTE, but no voice or messaging. Looks like people can fix it with a factory reset.
FYI: Same issue on the new beta.

I tried everything except for a factory reset on 9.0.10. Decided to try the open beta. That resolved the issue for me.
Are you forcing the update by using a VPN or getting it OTA?
