A2017u has no cellular connectivity at all. - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Just got my phone today. I downloaded the toolkit and unlocked my bootloader, rooted, have twrp, and decided to try resurrection remix. Everything seemed fine booted up with root access. Put my SIM card in and have zero cellular connection. It's not the sim because it works fine in my 7+. When you go to the settings it shows that it's reading my phone number but it says cellular radio is off. I've tried flashing the modem again and tried the latest lineage build and same thing. Any suggestions?

Who is the provider?
Have you confirmed proper radio mode is set in settings or *#*#4636#*#* ?

T-Mobile is the provider. Yes I've checked the phone menu and the default setting for "cellular radio power" is off. When I toggle it nothing changes. I've just went back stock and no network either. I never put my sim in before I started rooting and stuff earlier so I'm not sure if it was like this before I got it.

Which bootstack did you install? B15 or B19? If i'm not mistaken, RR needs b15, not b19. Looking at the first few posts in the RR thread it's unclear. But, since it's based on LOS, I believe B15 is the correct one.

Yeah I think I may have flashed b15. But I did just flash stock with b19 like the post said to do and still no luck. Tried a friends sim too. I'm stumped lol

I'm not sure. I haven't tried RR recently.
Can you post a screen shot of what the status bar looks like?

Took a pic. Didn't feel like swapping sims again. Pic is of a screenshot I took earlier. When the sim isn't installed it shows a SIM card instead of the bars with no signal.

Flash the universal bootstack and modem for the u variant from the lineage os XDA thread. This should fix the issue.

Tried that too. Unfortunately it didn't work. Sent the phone back to amazon assuming it's a hardware issue.

No 3G network after flashing ROM via TWRP!! need help

I restored my stock ROM which was backuped by TWRP. I installed various ROMs before but never faced this typo network issue. But now facing 3G network problem. I tested , there's no problem with the network provider. Installed CM12, but still it's EDGE. When I'm clicking 3G the sim card turns to 'No Service'.
Any solution for this? Please

Try remove "persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds" from build.prop
I know, this may sound irrelevant, but anyway, which base firmware was you on before installing CM? Check 'About' section.
There seems to be some bugs in our phone, when you install CM over old stock firmwares. Well, I'm not sure. But try flashing the latest firmware (it's A3 for G360H), then install CM over it by following the regular steps. I'm repeating again, I'm just speculating, not sure.

The Baseband version is G360HDDU0ANL3

Uh, that's a pretty old firmware, I think.
I know, we all install CM by format everything. I just have a thought that the firmware on which you install CM, affects the CM as well.
For now, try format everything again. Flash the A3 firmware using Odin. Then flash CM again, by following necessary instructions.
Do it, only if you're free/willing to do. I'm only 50% sure about this firmware thingy has any effects on CM. Lol.
Maybe your efs has been corrupt. Check your IMEI go to phone, dial *#06# see if your IMEI is all 0.

Phone Radio NOT working/turned on with converted Axon A2017 to Axon A2017U

Hello, first of all I want to let you know that I am not an expert but have so far been able to convert my Axon A2017 to the US A2017U version.
Big thanks [email protected] for supplying the necessary files.
I have:
-unlocked the bootloader
-rooted the phone
-flashed successfully B20
However, When I upgraded to B29, I lost TWRP and the cell radio of the phone is non-responsive. It won't even turn on. Bootloader is sill unlocked. I made phone calls on my T-mobile network when it was the origional A2017 B8 version. So I believe the bandwidths are compatible.
I have already done the following troubleshooting: (note: WIFI currently works just fine)
-My network is with T-Mobile, and I have been using a different axon A2017U for over a year with no problems.
-When I type *#*#4636#*#* and got to phone Info says, GSM Service: Radio Off, and the Turn on Radio button does nothing.
- I have tried working with every setting in this menu with no luck.
-When I insert my SIM card that is working on my current axon 7 into the converted A2017U, it is able to pick up T-Mobile network u.s. LTE, (fast.tmobile.com) and T-Mobile US (tmus). However, there are no bars because the radio is not turned on.
-When I try to search for new networks an error message saying, "network search cannot proceed when the data service is enabled disabled it?" So I disable it and nothing happens except for an error message saying "error while searching for Networks".
-In network mode I have switched to every option available, LTE/wcdma/GSM, wcdma/GSM, and GSM only with no result.
I am currently running Android version 6.0.1 on build B-29. Any help to get the radio up and running to receive phone calls would be greatly appreciated. Everything else is working except for the phone radio to send and receive phone calls.
Thanks for any Help.
Do you still have your IMEI or did the partition get corrupted?

I check the number with several online checks, as well as T-Mobile, and they are unable to bring up any information about the number. I imagine it got blocked or corrupted during the upgrades.
What do I do to unblock it or make it functional again?
Go to settings>About>Status and check your IMEI number. If it's blank its noyt gonna work on any network...
You might be able to restore it if you have a backup of it - no-one will give you their backup as you then have their phone - or as a last resort, you might need to restore to the stock Chinese Rom again and see if that fixes it...
Good luck, I'm off to bed after a long backshift...

Here's the latest update:
I loaded TWRP onto the phone and installed the file A2017U_N_Modem.zip. (Several Times)
nothing has changed. The radio is still turned off and no signal is being picked up from my carrier T-Mobile.
While loading it says: Loading A2017U_N_Modem for nougat system. I am not running nougat and I cannot find any other modem to download. Will that make a difference?
Any other suggestions are welcome?

Okay it works! I've got signal but when I try to make a phone call and my other phone picks up I can't hear or say anything. Any idea what's happening? I have tried refreshing the signal with no luck.
Hey man, I'm having the same problem with my Axon 7, brand new A2017U. Turned it on for the first time and I haven't had an ounce of radio on. Same things you've tried I've tried and it refuses to work. Mine is not rooted and I don't want to. I've tried downgrading my update and to no avail. Factory reset etc. I've contacted ZTE and they said they have forwarded my details and my phone details, storage size, color etc. To the necessary representatives. I think I'm gonna be sent a replacement, but just wanted to let you know your not alone.

[GUIDE] Regain Volte if Lost after flashing Custom ROM and Magisk

Many of you might have seen that after flashing custom ROMs and rebooting the phone with that ROM, Volte worked fine, but as soon as you flash Magisk Root and reboot again, volte is lost and further reboots doesn't seem fix it.
Working around my phone and in magisk I found a temporary solution to recover volte for calls.
***Solution***
After flashing Magisk Root, reboot your phone normally, you won't see Volte option for calls, now all you have to do is open Magisk Manager and swipe from left and look for "Magisk Hide", click on it (you'll see lots of system files), in the search bar search for 'phone services', phone services option will come up with a checkbox, click on that checkbox, your network will reset for a few second and will be back with Volte working.
I've attached some screenshots for better understanding.
**note that after every reboot you'll have to perform this procedure again n again to gain volte**
HOPE THIS HELPS Hit Thanks
Which ROM you are using right now.?
Did you flashed stock ROM.? because by flashing stock ROM IMEI shows "0", however I have recover IMEI but I won't able to get back volte.

Earlier I was using Oreo Custom Rom (FireHound) then I went back to stock (at this moment the IMEI lost).. right now I'm using AtomicOs Oreo.
If you want to use VoLte do the steps which I posted above regarding magisk. Hope that helps.
Well, my friend, I think Volte worked for me even if I didn't follow the above steps. Maybe regaining LTE is the main part. Nice tuto by the way.
ROM: Atomic OS latest
Not working
I flashed stock with 64 bit recovery installed, which, I think, is the reason of IMEI lost. (I flashed stock to re-gain VoLte , 4g was working fine)
But soon after booting stock, IMEI went to 0 or NA in many cases.
Going back to any 8.1 ROM gets back previous imei and 3g but 4g or volte. This story is going on since past 2 months.
And, this method doesnt do anything except resetting network and finding only 3g again.

Yes this method doesn't works if IMEI is lost.. I have wrote this method before IMEI lost not after the IMEI 0.
This will only work for people who still haven't lost their imei and if after flashing VoLte doesn't works.

You may have lost your baseband downgrading back to Nougat, since you mentioned you had already updated to stock Nougat.
You could either fastboot flash the Oreo firmware or try this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-moto-g4-plus-imei0-issue-t3859068
That script should have reprogrammed your hw partition and set the correct parameters for your radio, so I'm not sure what's happened to your baseband.

I honestly do not know - your best bet is to backup your EFS using Lyuu's TWRP as recommended in the Arrow OS thread. At least you'll have a copy of your modemst1/modemst2 that hopefully will restore your signal. Then flash ArrowOS and the relevant GApps.
You may lose signal if you revert back to stock firmware.

Again, it's up to you. ElementalX is a good kernel, though it really depends on what you want from your device. If you want stability, then the stock ROM and ElementalX (or flashing the stock Oreo firmware and then ElementalX/loony) are your choices. If you want more customisation, then Arrow OS or another custom ROM are your options. It really is up to you.

S7 edge not detecting SIM

Hey,
So I recently acquired an used S7 edge, so my first thought was hey I'm gonna flash lineage os on this, so I flash the unofficial lineage os 16 rom to it, after that I'mm setting it up I'm all done I put my sim in it and I'mm getting no signal, so I had no clue what was going on, i thought to myself maybe its just a bug from linage os 16, so I decided to see if lineage os 15.1 would work, so i flash it, when I get to the set up screen I get the SIM network unlock PIN message, so i google around and it tells me to call my carrier (which I did) but that didn't solve anything. I looked around some solutions online like dr.phone and some shady apps, nothing works, so I'm kinda desperate I don't know how to unlock my sim card, I tried re-flashing linage 16 but now my sim is not even being recognized anymore( before at least I got the no signal icon).
if anyone could give me any advice or tell me what to do it would be great, my knowledge goes from googling stuff to flashing a rom through twrp that's about it.
Thanks.

Personally I'd start from scratch, flash stock using Odin.
so you didnt check if phone is ok when u bought it?
check if you have IMEI in settings, check if its been on stolen list.
but first flash stock rom with sim inside

I installed stock firmware and it recognizes the sim, but in any rom I try to install its not recognized, so far I have tried lineage 16, 14.1, resurrection remix and pixel experience all of them to insert sim card. I really don't want to use stock firmware though its really bloaty.

so you didnt check if phone is ok when u bought it?
check if you have IMEI in settings, check if its been on stolen list.
but first flash stock rom with sim inside

It was my friend phone, and it was working when I bought it. When i flashed lineage os it didnt recognize that the sim was inserted.
i have a very similar problem
i have a very similar problem I tried to flash lineage os on my pnone but the sim would not even show just emergency calls only I restored the efs partition but still couldn't call or anything no network tried this with 16 and 15.1 both did the same very disappointing and no answers to be found around apparently this is a rare problem

it's not rare. you probably need to update radio, but make sure you have EFS backup or just go back to stock
