[Q] Phone Won't Connect To Network

after6 · Jan 18, 2014

A friend of mine bought a Nexus 5 and had it for a week and it worked perfectly. He decided he wanted to sell so I bought it off him. We did a factory reset on it to delete all his data etc off of it and after when I put my sim card in and went to set it up to use it, it doesn't connect to my network automatically. When I choose my network in the setting it will say "registering to network" and then say "can't connect to network at this time please try again later" I have tried using different sim card from different companies and it still does the same thing.

Please Help!!

This seems to be a really common problem with these phones. I have personally known two people's phones did this and the only solution was to RMA it. Not to mention numerous other reports of the same problem here on XDA.

I had the same problem and that didn't fix it. It was hardware related.

i suggest also to flash cache image, then factory reset.

Might as well flash the factory image if you don't care about data. That way, all possibilities would be covered.

I flashed the factory image and it's still doing the same thing. I'm guessing it a hardware problem, might as well send it in for a replacement.
