Egyptian users needed!!

hey everyone, im a P6 user in egypt, and i accidently did something wrong that bricked my phone, and after i managed to unbrick it and flashed the latest B-125 and everything went fine, except that the phone wont connect to my operator, its always with no signal and showing "no service" but when i search for networks manually i find all the networks in my country but cant connect to mine (Can't connect to this network at this time) i also tried to call 911 to check its not hardware, it connected and someone answered, so i don't think its hardware problem, so someone told me that it may be my operators files is missing from the folder /cust in the root of the phone
so any egyptian user can provide me with a copy from the folder /cust, may be that's it or not, but i must try every possible fix

Try the B118 international version (not china version). I think its meant for north african region.
Also maybe try updating b111 international and searching for OTA update.

Is your imei number present? Type *#06# to check.
Also check this. I am not sure but I think that you might use it to create the update.app you want (you may also contact the OP to tell you how to do it).

[Q] I747M - Telus - Won't connect to network - Weird

Hi everyone,
Weird issue with my telus locked S3. When searching for networks it only shows EXT, and nothing else. Is my phone hooped? I already tried a fresh factory restore to stock. Checked blacklist and its not black listed. My SIM works in my S4 just fine. Hallp?

Does your phone show the correct imei when dialling *#06# on the dialler?

hmm

great question. It does...but with a /11 after it.

That's fine. It's the first 15 digits that represent the IMEI.
Have you tried changing the network settings to wcdma only?

understood. I didn't, but i'm doing so now.
Changed to wcdma only, rebooted. Still insists that EXT is the only network and is unavailable.

Which bootloader and modem are on your phone? Do they match the ROM?

Well i reflashed I747MVLUFOB1, and the weird thing is i had to do a factory reset on the phone for it to give me the default setup (when i flashed it..it seemed like it didn't delete everything). Now at least its showing "bars" of service..but will only find the EXT network (and i do mean cellular network here).
Any other ideas?

Did you change any of the modem settings using the dialler?

On a side note, seems like it won't connect to telus, but it will connect to Fido (and will roam on rogers with my international SIM). IMEI is not on the national blacklist..maybe its not the phone?

I am experiencing the exact same problem as you My problems also started after I installed the I747MVLUFOB1 (BMC/Bell version) on my Bell locked phone. Mine was a little more complicated in that I had also lost my IMEI and I had to restore my IMEI. My IMEI is now restored, phone is not blacklisted but same issue of only having EXT as a network option. If you figure it out, please let me know how you fixed it! Thank you

Hmm very strange. Well i did check the IMEI several times (along with the person that brought it to me) and couldn't figure it out so i had to give it back unfixed. I didn't end up figuring out, but i did hear of another scenario..exactly the same with an S5 they had. Wonder if there's a lot more people with this issue out there?

This tutorial saved my phone! Luckily I had a friend with the same phone.

I suspect your NV data was corrupted during a flash aswell!

sgh-i257 Bell receives notifications but no network connection

I'll try to be brief. lol .Before finding this site I brought my unlocked S4 mini to wind to see if it will work. The guy found the 1700 freq in the phone service menu and changed something and said it won't keep on 1700 then he said something about the nv write. After a while he handed it back and said it wouldn't work. I put my bell sim in afterward it said no sim. it won't find any bell sim now. I tried a friends telus sim and it finds the sim fine and shows voicemail notifications but when I tried to call it says not connected to network. I can see the networks but when trying to connect, the signal drops and phone says "network not available try later". After it tries to connect the signal returns to normal.
So I found this site
I successfully rooted the phone with S4Mini_RootKit_v2.zip. It worked fine but had the same network problem. I fully rooted with cm11, then 12. Same problem.
I loaded a pit file gotten gaciously from sammobile. Same problem
I've returned all firmware to factory and undone root but still same issue.
The imei and serial number match the sticker on the back so they are not invalid.
The wifi and bluetooth and general operations are normal.
I'm guessing that the nv was rewritten and to recovery as well? But I really don't know as I am very new at this but have been doing a lot of reading.
1. Is there a way to restore the nv without a backup from my phone?
2. Is there a way to restore the service programming back to factory default? (I've seen this question asked before but only found the answer it is proprietory, whatever that means)
I have qpst and efs professional and a qcn file I was able to download from the internet
3. This qcn file is from unreliable source. Could I damage my phone more than it already is, and can i edit my imei and sn into it?
Thanks very much.

Cannot connect to LTE (doesn't matter what rom i'm on)

Hi XDA, I have an unlocked pixel XL on verizon network. I cannot connect to LTE or anything other than 2g networks. I have clean installed, changed APNs and tried everything to properly get the LTE back. Help?

I mean this is gonna sound dumb but have you looked at the mobile networks setting page and have your preferred network on LTE?

Yes

Can you change the network operators on 8.1?

Is your unlocked Pixel XL from the USA? It seems it doesn't support the correct bands for your network

All pixels have the same radios. Dial *#*#4636#*#* click on phone info. Change settings if needed

SIM card is toast. I have had this exact thing happen to me. Just go into a VZW store and request a new one. Sim handshake needed for LTE connection only on VZW.

I'm on the February patch, stock. I'm flashing everything, also, is it normal for your phone number to not be your phone number with a new sim?

My number showing up on about phone is 908-770-6054. This is not my number, could it be human error?

Contact your carrier or go in and tell them that it is not your number and that you are stuck on 2g they should be able to tell you how to fix it or if you go in they can fix it

I did contact my carrier, they cannot figure out what to do. Replaced the sim about 4 times, still no luck. I go into testing (secret code) and I am on 1x network @loeffler23

Sounds like your efs data could be corrupt and there is no way to fix that. Or your LTE radio is toast. Did someone try to carrier unlock your phone?

my phone's unlocked by default and there has to be a way to fix efs, not accessible by recovery? (what is efs)

It holds the imei and other radio proprietary info not sure what partition that data is actually in on this device. I think the efs data is no longer in /efs
Twrp used to have a option for efs backup with the data system backup and restore options

eSim/BL/root

Just a real quick question before i return the phone tomorrow.
On the g981u1 (purchased from google through Fi), same as everywhere else, has the sim manager disabled, bootloader not unlockable.
From all the searching i did today, which was horrible, i just wanted to verify in a last ditch effort before sending it back.
The only way i found to enable esim is to modify the features.xml (from sounds of it). However to do so you need root, and of course it appears root requires unlocked bootloader(unless i missed something somewhere)
I have been unable to find a way to unlock bootloader(am i wrong?)
I havent found root (without unlocked bootloader)
Edit- nvm i found what i was looking for

So far, no go on the esim. I did get unlocked etc, but it seems something else is keeping the esim inactive. I almost need a snapdragon with esim working (from another country) to compare to

Snapdragon variants aren't eSIM enabled, only Exynos devices.

I remember seeing the option enabled when you flash the Exynos magisk module on a Snapdragon device. It also gave me call recorder.

CSC change does not appear to work on snapdragon, i already tried it.
HOWEVER, editing Build.prop in vendor did enable sim manager for me, however status is showing esim imei as unknown (yes my box has 2 imei) and the add gets stuck

I am rooted/unlocked
In vendor\build.prop i found "persist.radio.multisim.config=ss" which is single sim. dsds would be for dual sim. Phone would not let me modify or replace the build.prop.
With the recommendation from Orphee i installed this package in my magisk
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-magiskhide-props-config-t3789228
From there it let me change that line to dsds, and thus here we are. I am unsure if dsds should be a different line for esim, or if something else is needed to "start" the esim.

Are both modules enabled ? CSC and Props config
And is there 2 IMEI written in phone About screen ? Not only the box.

Currently the IMEI for esim shows unknown, so it IS possible i broke that during UL/root or something, but i feel more inclined to believe it is just not enabled. On stock rom it only showed the normal IMEI
I have tried both yes

Then you must fix or find how to have the IMEI number shown in the phone menu.
Esim registration will not work until you have the IMEI number shown.

Download Google dialer and then enter *#*#467#*#" and there's some esim related toggles available now.
You can enable RCS here too if you know what you're doing.
