[Q] Phone acting wonky/no service

[t0pgearl4mbo]

Hey All;

Long time lurker on XDA, first time poster. My phone has been behaving badly, and thus far my googling, and searching XDA has not found any answers; so thank you in advance for any info you can provide.

I have and HTC HD7 (Bell Canada network). This morning my phone rebooted a couple of times, and when it "rebooted" the last time it just hung at the HTC boot screen (white screen with green HTC logo). First I took apart the phone and reseated the SD card. That in itself didn't resolve the issue, but I was able to do a factory reset and got the thing booted.

Now suddenly I am not able to get any service on the phone. It is not giving me any indication that there is an issue with the SIM card, and I even tried it with another known working SIM from my girlfriends phone to no avail. Also oddly, I have connected the phone to my PC, and tried to update it. It will update to 7.10, but will not detect that the mango update (7.5?) is available.

Seems very odd that suddenly the phone would now have no service, and I'm thinking that it must be related to the issues I had this morning. Any thoughts on what could be causing this?

Thanks!

Phone acting wonky/no service

About 6 month ago I had an issue with my old Samsung Omnia 2 using Bell Mobility as well...My phone would continually show no service or jump to roaming mode...A call to bell mobility help line and a good rep indicated to me the sim card was recalled due to issues..A quick trip to bell mobilty and a new sim card fixed the issue...Hope this may help you..I now have an HD7 with the same replacement sim card no issues...

Nope... I manged to get reception for a little bit earlier tonight and then it stopped working again. Pretty sure I must have broken something in the antenna when I remounted the SD card. Tried to fix that problem and now the phone doesn't even power on. Great another $300 device down the toilet...
