Guys, I need some help.
Basic Problem :
On almost 95% of reboots, power-ons I either get a message
saying "Insert Sim Card", or there is no message displayed but I have no GSM capability.
The Phone is unable to search for networks with the message "Error in Searching Networks"
Fields like Baseband, in About Phone Activity and
basically all fields in the Status Activity are marked as "Unknown".

Only Option is to reboot and hope that everything works.

I Unlooked the bootloader(phone was network unlocked when purchased),
verified it as being unlocked using the 'R','r' method. I had flashed nAa v8b and my phone was running fine.
Problem started when i flashed nAa v11 kernel, and then the subsequent SEMC Debrand & MiniCM2.1.9

I have also flashed stock kernel, relocked the bootloader, flashed Stock ROM and baseband also.
But I'm still getting the same basic problem stated above.

I also tried updating with latest SEUS and PCC, both say "No new update for your phone".

Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, but have you actually tried calling someone in case its just a rom/kernel bug?
If you have and it dont work, i suggest you ask a repairman (not SE, your phone isnt hardbricked)
But this is one thing that you can actually do at home.
did you even try using the search problem in case this question has bee asked before?
good luck:cool:

Yup, I did search a lot. The answers I found was :relock & unlock, flash stock rom, update using SEUS/PCC. I tried everyone of them. None of them work. !
I'll wait for a few days and then its off to the Service Center. :(

what are you gonna tell service center? that you were playing with your bootloader?
until then, reboot your phone 1-5 times a day, even more if you can manage,

Alternate Solutions for this problem:
- try to reboot
- flash the rom again
- flash the kernel again
- flash the baseband firmware again
- flash the original X8 firmware

If not, then go to the repair shop
May be there is a hardware problem

Hey man .. the solution is easy .. this also happened to me when i unlocked my BL ... when you start the procedure of unlocking you have two options .. just try with both of them ... On of them is wrong for your x8 ... Im answering from my phone now so i cant provide you link ...

P.S Use search on xda : Gsm problem x8 unlock bootloader.


Press Thanks if i helped!

Here you are....


Troubleshooting section:

Common Problems:

1. My SIM Card is not recognised after unlocking phone with msm7227_setool2.cmd! Ans: Redo unlocking procedure (step 5 onwards) using msm7227_semc.cmd.
