SIM Card Not Detected

The SIM card is not detected in my Virgin Mobile HTC Desire 816. On the lock screen it says "NO SIM card". The mobile connection bar on the top left has a few bars but still says no service. I can view the details of the card inside of a 3rd party app and I can see that it is detected inside of the system settings. All of the info about it seems to be in order besides for the mobile network state which says: "Disconnected"

The SIM card itself is working fine in other custom ROMs but for some reason has a problem with this one.

Is there any fix for this?

Error using insmod

I need some fast answers before I go to school tomorrow but I just rooted, unlocked etc. but when I try to install wp_mod.ko I get "insmod: init_module 'wp_mod.ko' failed <Exec format error>"

Is there a fix for this? I'm on the Virgin Mobile variant of this phone running the official Lollipop 5.0.2. Also, do I need to do this step or can I flash CM right now?

Hi,

Just installed CM12 on a A7_DUG (Virgin Mobile)

Initially I had no SIM card whatsoever, a few days later, I flashed a slighlty newer Nighlty build and was able to make calls - still no mobile data.

Installed APN switcher. Fiddling with the switch between 1G/3G and LTE, every now * then I would see all! APNs around me.

Just applied the beforementioned APN fix from this page ( androidforums.com/threads/virgin-mobile-mod-universal-lte-virgin-mobile-apn-fix-wip-cm-aosp-4-4-x.840298 )

I now can see two VirginMobile APNs but no matter what I pick, the phone seems stuck in Roaming mode.

Any ideas?

Now, the gapps I have for 5.1 worked with it. And also, I cleared all cache, performed a factory reset and still, when I launch it, I keep getting a poppup saying the Google framework unfortunately stopped and the Google play market doesn't work either; keeps force closing. I tried doing it all over again and not installing gapps but this problem still persisted. How do I end this?

[ROM] [5.0] Unofficial CyanogenMod 12 for Desire 816

Hi Grarak,

Your work with the HTC 816 is an answer to my dreams. I am currently working in China and have a great cell but it came infected with a horrible version of a government approved Android operating system that comes with all the new cellphones here. The phone is actually an HTC D816t. All goes well until I install the zip and get an error message saying that the zip is for an "a5dug" and that mine is an "htc-a5dug" and errors out.

I am working with: cm-12-20150105-UNOFFICIAL-a5.zip

I hope there is a way around this that you can help me with. It would help me greatly and I will demonstrate my sincere appreciation if I can get your creation working on my device.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Sincerely, Tom

Unable to Encrypt

I'm running 12-20150530-NIGHTLY-a5 on an HTC Desire 816 (Virgin Mobile). Everything is working beautifully (and fast), but I can't get the phone to encrypt itself. Each time I tell it to encrypt, it reboots like it's going to encrypt, but never does.

Here's my workflow. adb logcat is attached:

1. Start ADB logcat

2. Start Encryption from Settings > Security > Encrypt Phone

3. Screen displays green wire Android dude, for only a few seconds.

4. Blue cyanogenmod dude appears and pulses.

5. Phone reboots (adb stops logging) and white HTC screen with the development disclaimer appears.

6. Blue cyanogenmod dude returns.

7. OS loads, but no encryption.

Near the end of the log I can see it encrypting, but suddenly it stops and then the logging ends once the phone reboots (step 5 above).

Any help, hints or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I know it's not a valid question, but how "stable" is this ROM? A friend of mine wants CM on his Desire 816, and he doesn't know anything about rooting/flashing/customising. So if the ROM is stable enough as a daily driver and won't be too troublesome for someone who knows nothing about custom ROMs, I'll flash the ROM on his phone.
