I got a P900 and for the life of me, it will not pickup service from the network. I have an Att sim and I tried a Tmobile sim and it still didn't pick up a network. I tried manually selecting a network and it won't give me any any available. I tried doing a mater reset on the control panel and still nothing. is there any other ideas of, short of flashing, to wake this phone up and have it pick up a network?
Help!! P900 No Service

Is there by any chance this phone used to be locked.. Moreover, I hope you're exploring different areas to pick up network.

No I checked the phone config. It says it's unlocked for all GSM networks. I also have tried different areas and different sim cards.
Your problem is obviously an internal corruption in the phone then.. I would send it in for service and get a firmware flash.
not really that obvious 🙄
dude, doing a hard reset from the control panel isn't a hard reset, you need to input the hard reset code in the flip closed mode, i can't remember it off the top of my head but it's easy to find if you search

No I did do a hard reset with the flip closed.
format your internal disk
enter: up * down down * down *
(up and down for the jog dial)
then follow the menu, one of the options is to reformat the internal disk. This is what I did. If this isn't a hard reset, then I stand corrected and could please find out how to do this so I could try it.

yeah, but you orignally said you did it through control panel, you didn't say you did the flip closed method.

I'm sorry for being unclear in my pervious post.
