S7 edge not detecting SIM - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

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.

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

Le Pro 3 "No SIM Card" bug

I've had a few mobile data related issues on a few different ROMs now, and am looking for any solutions. The first problem I've been having recently is where my phone randomly reports that there is no SIM card inserted and won't make or receive calls and cellular data doesn't work. Simply rebooting or removing and re-inserting the SIM will instantly fix the issue but I'd prefer to find a solution so I don't have to reboot my phone all the time. Another new issue I've noticed is where the signal strength remains constant but the "ASU" goes from 40 or so to 99 and my bars appear to drop to nothing, this issue may have only started after my most recent install of lineage. I have the US variant of the phone and currently have Lineage OS 14.1 but even when previously on an unmodified copy of EUI 21s, albeit after installed after a few other ROMs, I was getting this issue. Does anyone have any ideas why I might be having these issues, or any ideas on what to try to fix them? Any insight is appreciated!
in my case I have the x722 and this does not recognize any SIM at any time
Did you try factory resetting? Are your APN settings for your carrier correct? It could be a lot of things. If you bought it in the U.S. from a U.S. store, you'll probably be able to RMA it (easier than the rest of us, at least). If the issue persists, I'd say open a case and ask for a replacement because it's your best option.
When did these issues start? From the beginning? If not, did you flash the modem correctly?

I don't remember exactly when I started having these problems to be completely honest, I just know that on EUI, after once flashing to lineage then back to EUI, I was having issues with it saying NO SIM INSERTED and now after flashing to Lineage and re flashing the 19s modem I am still having issues. I suppose I can try to RMA since I bought it at launch on LeEco's US store. Though I may have passed a year of ownership so I may be out of warranty . I don't really know what else to try, maybe this?
My understanding of this phone is, flashing stock rom (either US version or CN version), whose size is about 1.4g bytes, can give you the modem.
All the roms developed here do not have modem images.
I have faced the same issue trying installing custom ROM while sim card inserted.
The solution for me is to remove the sim try completely
Fastboot this (chinese stock) rom : https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0By_Lx-WrwGa7cnZMZWF4QUdmQm8&export=download
complete the installation normally using your wifi and then insert sim tray with sim. Hurray ! I got that working.
With this chinese stock rom I got everything what I wanted google play store, assistant and etc. (except android > 6)

First thing don't flash this ROM is not a good idea bad advice.
Try flashing 727 19s modern backup all on computer and do a hard reset.
Let know if this helps?

Haven't tried 727 19s modem backup, but what works for me is this ROM.
I know this ROM is in chinese and you might struggle on changing the stuff but when I faced the issue, the only thing I needed is to make the device usable whatever it'll cost.
It'll be great if modem backup thing will work for anybody. This ROM might be the last option for you.

[N9005] RessurectionRemix doesn't detect SIM card

Hi,
when I got my Note 3, I immediately installed Cyanogenmod and from then I only swapped between custom ROMs.
I never actually made a backup of the stock system. (Yes, I was reckless.)
I also never made a backup of any custom ROM before that (Yes, I was really reckless.)
I recently switched from the unofficial Ressurection Remix (from now just called RR) 5.8.2 to the official RR 5.8.4 and since then my SIM card is not detected anymore.
For the setup, I first followed the guide on the thread itself.
Then I paniced and looked up stock firmware for my device, but since they all had more specific names like N9005XXUBMH1 (my phone only says N9005 under the battery), I couldn't identify which one was the correct one and just downloaded a whole bunch and flashed them until one of them worked.
The stock firmware I flashed actually had a working SIM, but was also using power like crazy. I went from 1.5 days to half a day. The stock OS is also horribly bloated in my opinion.
So I looked through the forum and found the Rock Stable Setup, I followed it and got the same result.
I made plenty of nandroid backups with TWRP and restored that every time I started the phone and saw that the SIM wasn't found.
I am currently running RR 5.8.4 and a seperate phone for being reachable, but I would really like reduce that to one phone again.
When I dial *#06# in RR, I just see a windows with IMEI as title but no content. (It shows one in the stock ROM)
Things I have already tried:
Solution Lineage OS No Sim
UpdatePackage by -ION-
If you need any more information, I'd be happy to provide them!
I just really want to use my phone to it's fullest capability again.
Thanks to all replies in advance

I know that there are a lot of threads regarding this issue, but most of them are different phones (not N9005) or different conditions.
The ones that I did find that match my conditions roughly are already listed in the first post.
Therefore I belive that my case is different from those threads.
If you find one that I messed, please refer me.

Answer You are using an Old Modem .
https://forum.xda-developers.com/search/thread/3630301?query=sim card not detected
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=x...x-b&gfe_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=gTpXWv6_NYv98wf9h5-ICg
I only now read about 'getting the firmware to stick'.
I had to flash it three times until both the bootloader and modem versions changed.
Now I have a differen problem:
I can't call or send SMS.
Mobile data works and receiving calls and SMS works flawlessly, even though it sometimes loses contact with the tower.
Anything that cam up in search had either everything not working or solved it in a way that didn't work for me.
I tried rebooting, putting it in a different phone (SIM works there just fine) and putting it back...
Same here... my SIM card is not detected.
I can´t find a way to make it connect to my mobile provider...
It shows no EMEI in "Phone info" app, I asked for help in a RR thread...
If you make it work, please, reply here.

Big big issues on lg v20

Hello,
I've bought a LG v20 h910 2 months ago. 1 Month after I rooted it succefully, i tried some roms, and I chose lineage os 14.1. But I have a major issue now: my signal data was very weak and i figured my IMEI was = 0, so I tried to flash the stock kdz. I've done it, and I've flashed stock h910r rom. But my problem is still here: I have no IMEI and my phone is acting very strange : when I boot it with lg v20 stock, my SIM card is recognized and I write the pin, but the screen stays the same, I can't access my services even if it is the right code... I also tried others rom like lineage os 15, but I can't even access the configuration menus, I get a green screen with ram dump, even with stock boot...
Is a total reset possible, or could someone give me a full TWRP recovery?
Unfortunately no, that's the problem ... I also tried xposed imei changer, but it didn't worked... Is my phone dead doctor?
Edit: I flashed another stock kdz, and the phone works fine, the only problem is the sim card (again); are my imei number and this issue linked?
Edit 2: I followed this https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/stock-att-h910-stock-recovery-boot-image-t3528060 , and now i have lte and sim detected, I think I am going to stay on this stock rom in order not to have other problems. But my imei is still 0, is this a real issue?
After several hours and dozens of applications and commands (erase modemst, qualcomm toolkit, qpst,...), I still have no solutions ... I have access to data, but it's very weak and it is only on stock rom, on lineage os 15 I want to keep, it's worst... Is there nobody who already had a problem like this? And would sharing an EFS partition could be possible on 2 different phones?
I know, It is my fault if I don't have IMEI, but I can't return my phone, the warranty was only 1 month long, and I really need 4g because of my poor internet...
Ok, sorry for the multipost, but I've finally found the solution: I tried xposed imei changer on stock rom and lineage os 14.1, but it didn't worked. I tried on lineage os 15.1, and worked like a charm ! I hope all my issues are gone and may this post help !

No network access (Moto G5 Plus)

Hi everyone,
I've been having a problem since yesterday morning. Everything seemed to be fine with my phone before I flashed a custom rom. I was using at the moment MSM Xtended and I flashed the latest version of CrDroid. After flashing that other custom rom and booting, my phone had no network signal. All it reads on the status bar after that is just "No service". Of course, I removed the SIM card and reinserted it many times but that did nothing.
I've already tried flashing another rom (the latest AICP rom) and even going back to the one I was using at the beginning, but still nothing. I even tried reflashing the NON-HLOS.bin file and erasing modemst1 and modemst2, but it didn't do anything either. I also tried flashing this deodexed stock rom and booting. Interestingly, that kind of fixed the problem, since it recovered its network functionality. However, after reflashing an Oreo custom rom, it loses it again (actually, I've done that a few times today, but the last time I tried flashing the stock rom, for some reason it didn't fix it anymore). I don't know if in this case it's worth mentioning it, but I've tried checking my IMEI on both, custom roms and stock rom, and it's never been 0 at any moment.
TL;DR: My phone lost its network signal after flashing a new custom rom and I have no idea why. If anyone could somehow help me, I'd be really, really grateful.
I have had this happen so many times it is not crazy LOL. The best you can do is find a rom that it happens the least. For me it has been AOSP extended. Signal has been great. It is a bug that I dont think the devs even thought would happen with 8.1 roms. It will happen to everyone at some point if we stay on these 8.1 roms i guess until we get a workable 8.1 stock rom. There will be those who chime in saying it nevver happen to them but it will eventually.
Well, it's nice to know I'm not actually the only one then, I guess. But is there nothing I can do? Since I can't seem to get it fixed even by flashing the stock ROM anymore and flashing AOSP extended didn't seem to help at all either
I know brother there is no rhyme or reason it just happens. I am hoping when 8.1 stock comes out for us there will be a new batch of 8.1 custom roms without this problem. Right now i am on extended and havent had any signal problems for a few weeks so who knows.

Okay. Luckily enough, Oreo stock ROM doesn't look like it's gonna take too much more to arrive... Or so I hope, at least. Thanks
I was using LinageOs and it was working great. Then I decided to install DolbyAtmos and for that I flashed Magisk . Suddenly i had no network but my sim cards were detected , IMEI was there but no network on either sim whatsoever. I tried reflashing the LinageOs and PixelExperience ROM but none worked. So I tried flashing(ADB) the stock firmware only to lose my IMEI . After reading this post I tried Debloated ROM and my network was back. I should have stopped at that point but I tried to return back to stock again and lost IMEI again and now I have tried Dbloated,LineageOs , PixelExperience , AOSP Extended , but none helped me getting back network . Now I am stuck with this phone with no network , I had a backupp of my system before I flashed Oreo ROMs (with EFS) so I can get IMEI back but no network. This phone was my daily driver and now I have no idea what to do.

No success yet , but read on some posts that different baseband could be an issue.
Solution I've tried and worked 100 %
Hi bodies,
You can turn off your phone,
Go to fastboot menu by pressing and holding power button and volume down button in the same time.
Roll to "Restart Bootloader" with volume up/down and validate with power button.
Now select start and the network is back.
see you !:fingers-crossed:

Maybe your SIM card connector is damaged.
did you put in already a other card or put your main card into another phone.

(SIM 1)
I tried another sims but still nothing, and these aren't broken or something, tho I'm seeing that Miui 12 has already the problem about non detecting SIM, Soo.. I'll try Fastboot ROM Miui 11 Android 9
Okay, i solved it, tho im a newbie, there was some videos about how to fix it, the first step is flash the stock rom / not the miui 12 one for me, it has problems with detecting chips in some telecom companies like Claro or Telcel, wich mine was Telcel, so i flashed the fastboot rom ( miui 11 android 9) , and at this point, it wasnt detecting the chip still, but somehow i could recieve calls and everything, but now being in miui 11, the 2nd step is restore de cqn file, im not gonna post it but ill give the video where i got it, but with the programs and all that, you can restore de qcn file via diag, thats all, there some videos about how to pass to miui 12 without these problems but idk, heres the videos
stock rom via fastboot
restore cqn file( no sim detected)
that was all, see ya
