Sailfish (X): SIM Provider unknown - no mobile services
asked 2017-10-26 18:56:08 +0200
Edit: I reopen this bug because Sailfish forgets the APN settings which I must set manually. After that I must set them again and select the networt manually.
The manual selection of the network is only possible if you know your network - today I was in a foreign country and the Xperia turned to an tablet again. I thing because I didn't knew the righteous network and the corresponding APN settings. No phone, no mobile network! The roaming is not working.
Hello,
after booting the Xperia X with my SIM-Card I has to enter the PIN-Code. On this screen is normally on top the name of the Provider ( in my case: O2-de ). But on the Xperia X it is named "unknown". My PIN-Code is accepted, but there are no mobile services available.
When I go to settings -> PIN-Code the screen to enter the PIN-Code shows the number 26207 instead of "unknown". The Pin-Code is accepted either, but no mobile services!
With my Jolla1 the SIM-Card works fine. I have ordered an second Card. Same symptoms :(
Please Help without mobile services the XperiaX is a tablet, no mobile phone!
Sincerely, Helge
Oh no! The new SIM-Card give in the Jolla1 only phone services, no more mobile network. The "unkown"-symptom is now the same as described above for X.
This is a serious problem!
I face a similar problem (got my SIM card from Simplytel). Putting it in the Xperia I am not even asked for the pin. It is simply not working. Putting that back to the J1: Only phone services but no mobile network.
(I have a different SIM card from FONIC which works perfectly in the Xperia).
Here's my issue

Hhmm, this is my provider, too.
h___m ( 2017-11-03 22:56:32 +0200 )editHey there,
I am using o2 via third party provider Drillisch and also do have the unknown network issue. Pin is accepted but then the automatic network search spins to death. Hence I go for manual select and apply E-Plus network. Boom i am in and can use telephony. After manually adding APN LTE works too. So a bit of challenge but still open for me what to do when going to another country... That cellular stack seems to required seems to require some investigation. Not 100 % sure I am fine now.
