I am completely stumped after struggling with this problem for the last 3 days. I'll explain what happened in detail.
I loaded a custom rom for my phone, Liquid smooth rom, to be specific. I tried to encrypt my phone, but after 3 hours it only showed the bootloader and did not show any noticeable signs of progression, so I rebooted and factory reset to try and fix my phone, as it could not mount the internal sdcard. Factory reset did not work, so I downloaded a stock firmware version for my country and phone, from sammobile. A friend suggested that I try and get the pit details from heimdall, but heimdall could not. Friend then suggested that I reload the usb driver for the phone through Zega, and then try and try and print the pit details again. It still did not want to print pit details, and the stock firmware finished downloading so I just flashed it (first tried XFE version firmware).
Flashing went fine, cellular network did not want to work. I then flashed the custom rom, again, and the cellular network still did not want to work. I downloaded a different firmware version (XFA), and had the same result. I tried a factory reset, no result. I tried flashing again, no result. I eventually tried different combinations of the various firmwares available, no result. Today I also tried downloading a firmware version from April 2013, to see if it will make any difference, and no result. I tested my sim card in another device, and it worked fine. I tested a sim card identical to mine in my own phone, and the network still did not work. I tried various combinations of factory resetting, installing custom roms, flashing firmware, and nothing works. It does not want to detect my sim card, but before the encryption process my network worked fine. I also tried taking my sim out, and leaving it out for a while. I tried turning my phone on with the sim in, and it didn't work.
Any ideas, please?
