Hi guys,
I've recently bought the Xperia x10 mobile(unbranded) and subscribed for a new 3g connection(bsnl prepaid connection) so that I can use 3g in my mobile.
But, X10 doesn't recognise my bsnl sim. It's saying that there is "no sim card in the phone" and when I unlock my phone it just keeps on showing me the "activating phone" message forever.
Does anyone know how to solve this?
any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks
P.S. I've tried some other sim cards(2g ones) in my phone and all of them are working and my 3g simcard is working in other 3g mobiles. The only problem is with the particular simcard and x10.
P.P.S I'm going to visit SE service center, but just wanted to know if there's any existing issue with SE and any 3G bands.
Exactly the same as mine. After trying several SIM cards it appears that the phone will recognise any that just have the 7 contacts on the back. If they more contacts around the side (enhanced SIM?!) - it will not recognise them.

dont think you can use normal gsm functions on this phone with a three sim as three sims are different to normal USIMS.
i dont know the technicalities but i do know that three sims differ from other network's sims.
my HTC P3600 was purchased in the UK and was locked on the Orange network. I got it unlocked before moving to Canada to study. I purchased a sim card from one of the GSM mobile operators (Fido). But when I insert the sim card into my phone it shows me as roaming and the network also charges me roaming service rates even though I am not in a roaming area.
I upgraded the ROM from WM5 to WM6.1 and still the the problem is not fixed.
I also used the sim and CID unlocker (http://pof.eslack.org/trinity-unlocker/) to "reunlock" it but that also didn't work.
Can anyone help me out here. I love my phone and would like to use it instead of getting another one.
So please whatever suggestions you have would be welcomed.
thanks in advance
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.
Having a problem with a Telstra HD2 model.
With a Telstra SIM in the phone, I can make and receive calls. When I insert a Vodafone SIM into it, I cannot make or receive calls. Call hangs up straight away.
Device is not network locked as HTC phones are not locked with Telstra. Bars display in task bar.
Tried it with Windows 6.5 (factory default) and Android custom ROM. Currently on custom ROM.
Any thoughts?
I had a similiar problem a few years ago and all i had to do was get a new sim card. I was told i had damaged my sim card some how but i was able to save the contacts, transfer them over to the new sim T-mobile gave me and I have not had another problem since.
If you have access to another phone try and insert both sim cards you have in the other phone. If you have problems in the other phone with the sim card thats not working you can safely say its the sim card thats not working correctly and not a phone issue.
Thanks for the reply Craze.
My SIM's do work as I use my Telstra SIM (that works in the HD2) in my old Nokia and my Vodafone on my Galaxy Nexus Prime.
So on the HD2, my Telstra SIM works where I'm able to receive and make calls and my Vodafone is the opposite.
Could it be the phone? I'm hoping that it is so that I can fix it.
Could it be the network providers? If so, then I'll call them which I've already done but they couldn't give me an answer as to why my Voda SIM does that in the HD2.
Hi ! You are my last hope ! Just got N4 from USA, unlocked and all. I've cut my sim to fit the slot and it still works - i tested it on my sister's iphone. N4 absolutely refuses to see the network and upon connecting says "your sim card does not allow connection to the network". I am in Russia on MTS cell provider (all other androids are just fine) and I think it is just GSM and 3G provider. The N4 is stock.... Please, please help as I am in shock !! Much thanks in advance !
Do other sim cards work in the n4?
same problem
I had the same problem.
Had a Sim that worked just fine and used the same that was going to use for the nexus 4 and didn't work.
Now both Sims doesn't work at all is there anything that could be done?
Please help

The N4 is finicky with cut sims. Many users have had problems with cut sims that work in one phone but not in the N4. Others get them working for a while and then they error. Others manage to get them cut perfectly and they work.
You need to get a real micro sim. Don't use cut down ones.
