Can't connect to my network on Unlocked Vodafone Omnia i900v

[Guest askjay]

Hi everybody,

I bought a preowned unlocked Vodafone i900v, when I put my SIM card in it but it shows "no service"

Funny thing is that I put my SIM card in my old phone and then put it into the Omnia, I get all bars in signal strenght and shows my Operator name.

But I can't dial out nor receive any calls.

Is there anyone who had the same experience? any tips? In my country we use the 1900 band, and I have "Automatic" on Frequency Band.

I updated to firmware PDA i900DXIA5, Phone i900XXHI2

Appreciate any help and insights

hey man, I'm using it in Costa Rica, bought the Omnia from eBay

I used the unlocked method posted here, everything is unlocked but still can't get incoming nor outcoming calls

I will try to flash it with the i900ACHJ2 official UK rom

Is there any difference between i900 and i900v?
