Streak / SIM problem

My screen broke and i got a replacement from Dell. But after inserting my SIM and SD card the device boots but does not ask for the pin code of the SIM. I'm not able to call and above the screen no provider is visible. It does recognize my sim because the sim manager knows it's a vodaphone sim. But all the relevant settings in the menu are grey and at some places the message 'network or sim error' appears. If i put my sim in my iphone, it's working fine.
Any idea's, please?

Problem solved. I connected my streak to wifi and it said that an update to Android 2.2 was available. After downloading and installing the problem was solved.

[Q] SIM locked

Dear all,
I have an issue with my Omnia 7 and need your help. My phone is Unlocked T-Mobile Brand. I can use SIM cards of several company except the one I use regularly. When I insert this SIM, phone is SIM locked and phone function is not working at all. When I press on phone tile, it brings me to home screen. SIM card from other providers work fine. So it is strange to me.
Could you help me? I want it to work with this SIM.
Thanks

That sounds very strange. Surely it must be something to do with that particular SIM card if your phone is SIM unlocked and other providers are working?

[Q] SIM Card not showing up?

Hi there,
So, My dad just bought this beast. first impression is really amazing. So, To get started, I cutted down my sim card into micro-sim and Inserted it in yureka. after booting, It shows no sim card. When I search for networks and Click on any network for registration, It says "Your sim card does not support on this connection" something like that. I have checked the sim and it is working in other smartphones.
Just in case, I have cm11 in it. Not updated yet. any help would be appreciated. Sorry, If i posted in wrong section
EDIT: CHECK THE ATTACHMENT. Sim slot looks different as compared to others. I am from india.

Test the sim to both slots and see if one of them working. And if no slot works out, then try other micro sim to test sim working. If that too not working,means slot are not functioning. Need hardware replacement or whatever you can get.

Well, I already tried in both of them. Not sure about other micro sims.

Would some one give me a hand setting my Note 3 up.

So I purchased a used note 3 ( N900A )
I just switch to straight talk. So I had a full size sim and cut it down to fit my note 3 . When I try to go into my apn setting it says insert a sim or something like that.
I know the sims registering , to the phone I can read stuff from it.
So has any one went down the road I am . Is my sim locked or something like that.
Also there is an app called "Sim App." it will first say icc-id and give what looks like about 15-16 numbers then click ok it reads imei check sum gives 4 digits next reads random number gives 8 numbers.
then asks for an unlock code . If entered wrong it will say you have X amount of trys lefts.
Does this have anything to do with why my sim card is not registering to the phone?

Do any sim card works in the phone? Does your sim card work in other phones? Was the phone tested with a sim card before purchase? Was the phone locked to AT&T?

Yes if I switch the card to the other phone . It works.
Im not sure if this matters the orginal phone was a throw away`alcatel. Its not a smart phone.

Are you using the SIM card in another phone that also uses a micro sim? Does the note 3 recognize any SIM cards?

I only have this one sim .
The note is reading the sim card with certain aps . You know how if you up power up a phone , missing a sim it will say so if you pull down the top banner usually with a message like insert sim. When you pull down the top banner it doesn't say that . There is no warning about missing a sim . So it recognizes it has one . I can read stuff off the sim card when i open certain aps that are meant to access sim cards but when I go to change APN setting it will say insert sim card to access network settings.

Without another sim card to try in the phone, it could be the way the sim card was cut or there is something wrong with the phone.
Is the phone sim unlocked? Did you try a sim card in the phone before buying it?

I dont think the phones sim is unlocked.
No I didnt try a sim . It was from a family member so Im not to worried. The sim card works in my throw away straight talk phone.
How do you unlock the phones sim?
BTW thank you for your help.

In order to determine if the phone is sim unlocked, power off the phone, insert a sim from another carrier, and power up the phone. If phone asks for a network unlock code, the phone is not sim unlocked and you will need to get an unlock code.
Was the Note 3 n900a from AT&T?

Is there a way to enable 2 sim card tray on any s8?

Hi Everyone, my research found that I can insert 2 Sims in any s8 but only on some market the 2nd tray is enabled. Seems that in Germany it is not.
Is there a way in how to unlock it? And use a normal s8 with dual sim and best would be still get OTA updates

The second tray for micro sd card I guess. Not for the SIM card.

No the tray allows to put in a sim also if you flip it 9. Degree
Also the duos version seem to contain the same hardware and same tray but work with dual sim so I guess it's only software deactivated

You need a second imei which only comes with the fd versions.
