Hello!

I just bought Samsung S4 Clone (mtk6589).
It have problems – sometimes it recognises SIM card, sometimes says there is no SIM card. Even when it recognizes the SIM card, I can’t import contacts – it is loading forever.

Also, there is no network. It is supposed to work in 2G 900mhz and 3G 2100mhz used in our country so that is not the problem (I hope). I allready changed the IMEI number with the number from my old phone, whitch worked perfectly. Changing IMEI didn’t help. It can’t connect to network.
If I go to Mobile networks – Select manually it sometimes find some networks and can’t connect, sometimes it doesn’t even find any networks. Choose network automatically doesn’t work at all.

Does anyone know what the problem might be or how can I fix it?

Thank you!!!

What is the make of the phone, model number…saying S6 clone does not help? Dont know if it is in your country but changing IMEI number is a criminal offense. It may be that network has detected this change and blacklisted the IMEI number. Change it back and see if your old phone still works. If it does then it can’t be that.

I bought this phone on Aliexpress
“Perfect 3G Mobile phone i9500 S4 5 inch android 4.2 mtk6589 Quad Core 1GB RAM Air Gesture Air view S-view Eye control”

In settings menu it says Model number: GT-I9500

Old phone still works. Looks like IMEI is not a problem.

I don’t know what else could be wrong?

Android version: 4.2.9

Problem solved. Phone didn’t work because SIM card was to old.

Might have had the memory report tweeked. It looks like it might a 4 gig phone tweeked to give a higher capacity. try installing Antutu or similar and see what it reports

Does the PC display anything when you connect? this might also be a partition issue with the memory. The larger partition may not be formatted.

This looks similar, different reason but the solution might work.
