Hi Guys.
I have searched for this issue but cannot find anything specific to my case.
I have a rooted HTC Desire running InsertCoin and recently changed my phone network (new SIM) to Sure a relativity new phone network in Jersey (Cable and Wireless). When the SIM was first put in the phone connected to network but would not send SMS (error straight away). I checked the APN list and this was blank. I got the APN settings from the website and tried to add these (getting warning cannot detect SIM) but it would not save.
SIM works fine in Galaxy Nexus Stock 4.3 and S3 using CM11 - cannot to network and APNs visible + text/data works.
So I installed CM7 and CM10.1 and with these the phone would not connect to the network at first. However when I do in to search for networks a couple of times it finds SURE and connects. Adding APN gives no error messages but this will not save. Using APN tools from play store they say "You SIM card cannot be used" Sim state "UNKNOWN" + cannot detect operator code etc so it seems to be an issue reading some of the SIM. But when connected to network I can make calls and receive texts. I have tried messing with the GSM only, auto WCDMA settings in phone information and makes no difference.
I am on baseband 5.11.05.27.
Any ideas what could be causing these issues? I really think its an issue with the phone reading 'some' data from the SIM. The phone shop said we do sometimes have these issues with older phones and i should change my phone
Any help appreciated!

BUMP as I really need help - cannot send SMS or get data
Any ideas - should i try different radio?
Firstly upgrade radio to the latest one, as the one you have is not the latest. Secondly, try latest evervolv nightly, as it is based on kitkat and maybe it will help. Try these and post results.

Hi there,
Thanks for these suggestions - it has taken me a while because of USB driver issues but I have finally flashed the latest Radio 5.17.05.23 with a Stock HTC ROM and this did not make any difference - still says No SIM card when opening APNs. Then flashed to latest Evervolv 4.4 and just like CM before it will not let me save APNs and actually says 'No SIM card - C&W" on the lock screen.
Any other ideas - really seems like the phone cannot read the SIM properly. Works fine with other SIMs and the SIM works fine in other phones. Have 2 x HTC desires and same issue so must be problem with this model?!
Thanks

No other thoughts guys? Is this just a weird one where the HTC is too old?

I have just recently got an G4 xda exec, fully unlocked and i have upgraded to TML 8.7.1 and i have also got a 3 sim, but when i put my 3 sim card in the device it says that it is an orange sim
I have tried with my other sim card and that is perfect but it is not a 3g sim so i really want 3g to work
Any Ideas ???
Have you run the Connection Setup? I can't remember if TML871 has built one in his ROM or if it's auto-run. Either way, if you run it again, you should be able to select 3sim instead of orange.
Trying that now, it did have that setting, and i have not tried that one before
EDIT: I have tried to do that, it still says orange and when i go into the connection setup it says error with the database
I have had another look at it and it shows that i am on roming signal, but when i was on wm5 it showed UTMS when i put the sim in, so if it is just my signal or not i do not know
but thanks for the help anyway
ALls I can think is to try a different ROM, and see if it's a problem with Tomal's ROM. It would switch to roaming if it can't find your network and goes through another one (eg Orange). Are you still using the same Radio that you did with WM5? Perhaps you should try another Radio - people seem to like 1.15.
Or... find a .CAB with your network settings and just install by hand. I had some problems with settings provided in various ROMs, so always carry Voda NZ .CAB on my SD. Just in case
i have tried using different settings, so i am now trying a different 6.1 ROM to see if it is a problem with this rom
Thanks for everyone's help
I Have been able to fix the problem, i have used the AllmostOfficial 1.2 Professional rom and I went into the phone options and then network and manually selected 3 off the list in preferred networks and added it onto the list and now it works
Thanks for everyone's help and support as well as the good availability of the site.
Hi guys, I have rooted my htc desire and flashed with it with Oxygen.
However I have a problem - my phone will not connect to my mobile operator?
When I select "about phone > status > signal strength" that shows -93db and 10asu - So does that mean there is signal?
The desire was branded and locked to Orange. At first I thought it was a simlock issue, but I have a unlock code. Every time I restart the device it asks me to input the code, however it still does not allow me to connect to my operator (O2 uk).
After going through a few threads I am stumped so I am seeking advice! I have tried different radio versions to no avail, different ROMs also so can anyone offer some suggestions as to the solution please?
Anyhelp would greatly be appreciated, thanks!

1. Reset/restore your APN
settings - wireless & network - mobile networks - access points
You should see your provider and a check box. Press the menu button, select reset to standard and wait till it's done (or add manually).
The path was translated from german, so please look for the appropriate setting on your phone.
2. If your sd card doesn't mount or usb doesn't connect, search for usb brick fix here in the forum.
3. If 1 or 2 doesn't help, wipe everything (not your sd card!) and reflash your rom. After rebooting flash again the latest radio.
thanks for the responses, I have tried resetting apn but that did not work for me. I have however managed to solve this problem by restoring stock RUU and unrooting. I then reflashed oxygen and all is working fine.
My radio version is running on 32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09 currently, however I will update this to the latest version 5 radio and see if my connection or simlock occurs. Do you guys think that a radio update is necessary or that I should keep the one that I have now?
Thanks
any chance you could post how you restored stock ruu
Hi,
I'm from Germany and went on Holiday recently to Singapore and Australia. There I bought prepaid SIM cards for internet access. Now that I've returned and use my german SIM again, my phone can't enable the data connection anymore.
I've attached the *#*#4636#*#* phone info screen. I already tried factory reset, reflashed a radio image and new rom - and still the problem remains. I also tried all the different radio band settings (see second screenshot). It always says "fail because Radio Not Available).
I didn't flash or change anything on my holiday trip, so I'm really out of ideas. I hope someone can help me.
Thanks
Björn
Set network type to GSM and try again.
SwiftKeyed from dGB with Transparent XDA App
error message stays the same, also tried the other network type options, always the same
I just tried a SIM from a firend of mine, and with that one everything works normal.
So it seems to be a problem with the sim card. I guess I will just get a replacement SIM.
Hi All,
I'm hoping someone out there could help me with a very puzzling problem I've been having since yesterday on my HOX.
I recently moved back to Australia and bought a SIM from Vaya, who use the Optus Network. Everything was working fine for the first 4 or 5 days, but since yesterday, I have been unable to connect to the Optus network for the majority of the time and when I have been able to, it has only lasted for a short period and then I lose reception again. I did not make any change to the phone in the last week, besides regular automatic updates to installed apps like Facebook, etc. I have also tried the SIM card in another phone and it is working fine, so figure it must be a problem with the phone, and not the network or SIM card.
When I try searching for networks, sometimes I can see YES OPTUS, and when I try to connect it gives me the message "Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network", and other times it just cannot see the network at all, even when in the same location where I have full bars on another phone. I have rebooted the phone several times, gone into the phone diagnostic screen and set the radio bands to AUS, AUS2 and back to Automatic in case that may have been the problem as well.
I have a WWE HTC One X, CID HTC_001, bought factory unlocked, rooted, S-ON running:
Rom: ViperX 2.7.0,
Kernel: Faux 010m
Baseband: 2.1204.135.20
Build: 2.17.401.2 CL89015 release-keys
HBOOT: 0.43.000
Any ideas?? I'm just really puzzled by this since it was working for the first few days and just stopped working overnight after nothing that I can think of has changed
Nobody?
make the setttings for the internet urself..or try to use another SIM card in ur phone and see if you still have that problem ..better use a sim another carrier..
I had this problems and a manual configuration for the internet resolved it
Yeah, it's not an apn problem, it can't connect to the network provider at all (to make phone calls or sms's).
Having a little trouble getting my hands on another micro SIM, but will hopefully have some luck soon
Hey guys, I'm just about at my wit's end trying to figure this out.. I'm on a SGH-747M running CM 10.2 and my phone works great without a SIM inswrted, but the moment I insert my SIM the phone locks up and restarts a few seconds after startup.
I picked up the SIM (Fido) a few days ago and for the first day it worked fine (which leads me to think that the problem doesn't lie with CM) but after I turned my phone of that night, the SIM problems started.
I've taken a few steps to try and fix the problem but nothing has worked yet:
- flashed the latest modem for rogers/fido
- flashed the latest bootloader for the 747M on rogers/fido
- tried a different SIM, same problems. Tried my SIM in another phone and it works with no problems (* my phone was used before on stock by a family member with a Fido SIM with no issues!)
- tried inserting the SIM while the phone is running but the phone doesn't seem to register it or find any networks
- at this point I thought it may be an app that was conflicting with the SIM on startup so I disabled most of the apps from starting on boot
- tried using acatlog and acatref to keepnl a log but both just show a blank screen when checking the log (apparently a common problem based on reviews in the play store)
I'm one step away from pulling my hair out Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
