Bought this phone second hand, they said it couldn't receive texts or calls but all other functions worked.
I got it to work for 1 day by changing it to GSM Only in network settings, the next day it stopped working.
A few months later after just using its non phone functions, I got it to work for another day by installing the "2 degrees App" (2 degrees is the sim provider). Again it did not work the next day.
I have tried rooting it - didn't help.
IMEI is the same on the back of the phone as shown with *#06#, I don't exactly know what this means but saw it mentioned in a number of fix suggestions.
I'm fine to do some surgery on the phone if needed but don't know if this is a hardware or software problem. Feels like it would be software since it selectively worked as a phone, albeit never for over 24 hours.
