Hi, I searched forum but haven't found any solution, recently I had repaired my Artemis and got new motherboard so to get rid of crappy orange software I wanted to change rom, after successful USPL and replacing rom with wm 6.1 (tried 5 by now) I unlocked the phone as it was on forum, tried 4 different sim card's, and still no luck "unknown or missing sim card". Any help greatly appreciated.
Hi mate...you have changed your motherboard?
How, where and how much have you paid it cause I need one too and I'm from Malta....
As for the no sim problem..I think you should try to restore it to factory rom
on the first place, and if it doesn't help, you have to go to IMEI unlock it...
I think it is roughly 20-30 GBP....and you can do it on line.
Hope it helps...

Morning all,
I need help please gents, last night I attempted to sim unlock my MDA Vario (tmob), I used lokiwiz ver 2, but now it is simlocked completely, it also reads on start up "data crashes, contact service provider". Was working flawlessly on Tmobile before this.
I'm sure its a gen 3 as the ipl/spl is 1.06, I have tried using the new version of lokiwiz to fix it but it will not go away (unless I take sim out of course! )
In my desperation to get it fixed last night I even paid £20 to imei-check.co.uk, but they need to verify that I am who i say I am?! By sending a scan of a bill? At this point I have not received any contact from them.
Can someone please help me get this to accept sims again, any help will be much appreciated .
Thanks in advance guys.

Try once more to downgrade your phone to the 1.05_CUSTOM_ROM, then use lokiwiz02b and perform the SIM unlock again STEP-BY-STEP without having your SIM card in there! See if that works!
Thanks Junner, will try when I get home from work.
Should I have taken out sim before attempting unlock intially?
Thanks
Andy
No, it normally does not effect the unlocking process!
What I do wonder is the following: Do you use a different SIM than the phone's ROM was made for? It is highly unusual that the SIM lock will effect the card it was originally locked to!
here is the problem similar to yours

i got it solved by paying 38$ using

Thanks all for all your help,
I tried again but it does not work, I guess I will have to wait for imei-check to get back to me, unless anyone else has any other suggestions?
Thanks again all

Hi,
Suddenly out of the blue my Touch-Cruise decided it does not find the uSIM card anymore.
tried anything i could think of:
tried the uSIM on another phone - ok
tried another uSIM on my Touch-Cruise - no SIM was found.
tried reflashing the ROMs (original ROMs - WM6 and afterwards the WM6.1 versions) --> nothing still not SIM is found
Has anyone else ever encoutered such a problem - it just happend with NO apparent reason one second it seems find the next i suddenly see the the device shows NO-SIM.
Please if anyone has any idea.......
hi i'm no expert but it sounds bolloxed if it's under warrenty flash back using offical ROM and send for repair
Hi,
i've new problem with my S300+!
Yesterday my phone worked well, today I see the following message:
"The SIM card is missing. You can still make emergency calls if your service provider supports it".
I tried to switch the sim card to another phone and the sim works correctly, then i tried to put another TIM sim card on the s300+ and the message is showing too.
What's happened?
Originally the s300+ was SIM locked for SFR sim. But when i bought it, it was unlocked to sim free.
Two weeks ago i've upgraded the radio rom to latest version.
Reading the other device's forum, i've saw that problem may be an hardware problem. How can check if the problem is caused by hardware ?
Can I try to re-unlock the phone? or it is effectless?
Thanks in Advance!
can you try a SFR sim in the phone?
see if it works on that sim.
do you know the person you got the phone from?
how was the phone unlocked?
you could try unlocking the phone again.
I can't try a sfr sim!
I'm in Italy and I've bought the phone in France.
I don't kown the person that have sell the phone, and i don't kown ho the phone was unlocked.
I know that the phone works well for 3 weeks and then not!
I 'm tring to reunlock the phone.
if you do a search on this forum you will find the files needed to sim unlock your phone.
when you have done, may be your phone will be ok again.
On the down side to that may be the person that sold you the phone has reported it lost or stolen and its been blocked/locked if that is the case i dont know what you can do.
I have just unlock the phone, but nothing is changed!!!!
I've also checked my imei on this site:
http://www.amta.org.au/default.asp?Page=405
and it not seems reported as lost or stolen...
I bought a S300+ (SFR Locked) in January 2008 and I unlocked by myself using tools found on this board, it still work fine but with a Vodafone Italy SIM, but sometimes I use a TIM Sim too.
I don't think that your is a lock problem, from the message you get at the powerup sound like an hardware problem but you should try an hardware reset how last option if you didn't it before.
I've made an hard reset, but nothing happens!
Also I've tried to flash a new roms (an italian rom and the original rom), but was not the solution!
I'm not sure where is the problem, because the phone worked well for about 3 weeks, than suddenly shows the missing sim card message....
IS there a site to verify if the imei is blocked? i've try www.ama.org.au
Is There a program or a tool to verify the integrity of hardware, especially for ths sim hardware? or a datasheet of sfr 300+?
I've had the same problem on my trinity and it turned out that I needed a new sim card because the old one burned out after four years of use. This may or may not be your problem.
I solved my problem by inserting a little paper between the SIM and the support lol
i bought a t-mobile hd2, it is unlocked since it doesn't ask for a code, if i insert sim card it gets freeze every couple of minutes i tried to flash new rom change radio spl, nothing worked. only if i take the sim out it works like charm but the moment i put the sim in i freezes, i tried different sim same problem ? i did search cant solve my problem
If it's your SIM card, just take it into T-mobile, they'll replace it free & quick. But make sure you have the stock rom on it when you take it in or it will void any warranty.
If it's your microSD card try formatting it to your phone. If that doesn't work it's probably corrupt. Not sure if it's covered or not.
Sorry I couldn't be of much more help, but I'm sure one of these brilliant minds on here can help more.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It didn't ask for a code? so you aren't with T-mobile then I'm guessing..
You might wanna try a hard-reset, and if there's an SD card in there try taking it out.
Hi Guys,
I will try and keep this as short as possible. I am on contract and have had my numbers for years.
Anyone who can help me will be rewarded.
I had my S6 Edge stolen. Within 30 mins I went to Vodafone (UK) and got a new sim card - cancelling the one in the S6.
The next day I phoned Vodafone to get the IMEI blocked.
I have an S4 I9505 from before my upgrade (Stock 5.0.1, stock Kernel, UK) Now it gets weird...
My sim card will not work in the phone.
My sim card works in any other phone.
Any sim card works in my phone.
MY SIM WILL NOT WORK IN MY PHONE!
I am no tech newbie, I changed the sim tray a couple of times first thinking it was that. Vodafone gave me 3 different sim cards - nothing.
I was in the Vodafone store for 2 hours last night trying to fix it, there are no bars on my account and the phone isn't blocked or barred. The phone is in good condition.
Tried factory reset and format.
If anyone can help me resolve this issue I will be sincerely grateful. If I cannot fix this great phone - I will be forced to buy a new 4G handset.
I currently have my sim in an old iPhone and am using the S4 for everything else, so I am ready to try anything.
Thanks guys in advance.

I prefer you to flash aosp rom like cynogenmod or note 5 port ^_^ . It might help your sim card to get work again. Remember to do backup first and install custom recovery . Warning : Your phone need to be root first . If your phone already rooted then you just do a backup and flash aosp rom
Did you try a factory reset from recovery mode? Reflash a stock ROM? IMEI is properly displayed from the dialler menu (*#06#)?
