HELP - SIM CARD problem - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I love my Nexus (Rooted, Specific ROM BeanStalk).
It was working like a charm.
My company change the carrier and issue new SIM.
I have to use a nano sim card (due to IPHONE 5 policy - in the company).
I then used an holder for the nano Card.
I inserted it, it worked well one to two hours and now, not anymore.
The NEXUS is not seeing any SIM card, mine and another from my wife in the micro sim format.
My SIM card is working in other phone, even with the holder.
I did a reset factory and installed the ROM again from scratch.
What are your suggestion ?
Thanks
Docles

Cloned 12 in 1 Sim Card

Hi all,
Has anybody came across these:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9102090186&fromMakeTrack=true
I can work out it's one sim card that can hold up to 12 by copying them using a device. I only ask as i'm using the dual ghost sim card and for it to work you need to crop your sim cards to fit.
This badger seems to be a lot easier (ie no cutting involved) and can hold 12 sims on it.
Is anybody using one or know if they work? It says they work on V.1 & V.2 simcards. what sim cards does the universal use?
I opened the thread as these might save us from cutting sim cards up.
Hope someone can shed some light, cheers

yohanson: have a search for clone sim and dual sim on the forum.
Won't work in the UK if you have a SIM card newer then 2 years old AFAIK.
V
there is one that works with a V3 sim card which i suppose to the newer sim cards
I bought something similar from ebay. The software supplied couldn't crack the encryption on my sim card. See this thread:

[Q] iPhone 3GS micro sim card

Hey guys, I just bought a t9193 and am wondering if I am going to have any issues using the micro sim card from my iPhone 3GS? I know I will need an adapter to make it fit, but aside from that, any issues I should expect?
Also, once I do get a working sim in to the device, will I need to configure any network settings manually or should that be pulled down from the provider (Bell)?
Thanks!!
Bill
Hi,
I've been using an adapter for the micro SIM since last summer & not had any problems.
Only issues is sometimes its a pain to get the damn thing in, without it dropping out of the holder.

Micro SD card slot

I was wondering if anyone has had an issue with their micro sd card slot not locking in cards. When I push the card in it clicks but just pops right back out, this is on a new phone sent from Verizon (old one had no working data).
nope no problem ive handled quite a couple fascinates... get it replaced again
a friend of mine just had this problem with her Captivate. she had to have theSD card holder and GSM card holder replaced. you need to call and have them send you a new phone.

[Q] one particular sim card not being detected on s4 i9505 SOLVED

I have a extremely illogical problem and spent alot of time diagnosing it which still got me nowhere.
The scenario is like this,
I have 2 S4 galaxies, (both unlocked australian models)
1. I9505 (Stock 4.4.2)
2.I9507 (Stock 4.2.2)
I have a very old sim card that has been working on all my phones so far, android and others. It is a Australian TPG sim card which uses the optus network
I insert this sim card in my I9505 20 or 30 times and power on off, always have message no sim card. I try at least 5 other sim cards, different carrier and different country all detect and work on first attempt.
I now insert this sim card into phone 2 (I9507) it detects on first attempt! I do it 3 more times all attempts are successful.
So I open both phones, swap the sim card / sd card reader parts between phones (I mark each sim card reader so there is no confusion which one is which)
Now I insert sim card into (I9505 with I9507 sim reader) sim card not detected, 10 attempts all fail.
Insert sim card into (I9507 with I9505 sim reader) sim card detected every time!
I try all my sim cards on both phones, all sim cards work on both phones, both sim readers are 100% fine!
I am thinking this has to be software related, I am not able to downgrade my I9505 to 4.2 obviously, I do not want to upgrade my 9507 to 4.4.2, to see if the sim will fail on the i9507.
the 9505 has the 4.4 bootloader and knox has been tripped, but it works fine with all other sim cards, phone calls, data, wifi etc.
Anybody have anything in mind or any clue why in the hell the sw on the i9505 hates my tpg sim and won't detect it, obviously the sim reader is working 100% and the sim card also works 100% detects on i9507 and also on a xt925 motorola (pre 4.4 bootloader)
The only thing in this equation thats out of place is 4.4 bootloader, I have no second device with 4.4 bootloader to verify.
is there any new security or anything at all regarding sim card reading in the 4.4 bootloader?
Any help appreciated, hope its not a thread with 0 answers after a year
ps tpg charge $20 for sim replacement and take upto 10 days in mail, so I am keen to solve this before replacing the sim
The problem was hardware wise afterall, all other sim cards worked under normal conditions however the non working simcard started working when heavy pressure is applied on the sim reader flex cable plug. Solution was to put a rubber stopped on top of the sim reader flex cable plug. When the midframe is screwed down the rubber stopper puts the extra pressure needed.
Something to point out for those purchasing SIM card slot replacements. The original part HAS the rubber pad mentioned above. If you replace the SIM card reader with a new one you have to peel the pad off the original and place it on the new part for it to work correctly. The new part doesn't include the pad.
Have the same problem with my s4 i9505 . I flashed 4.4.2 official rom then custom roms with no results . But when i changed sim card with other of the same operator it worked . I realized that the problem lies in the new sim cards pins engineering.

Canadian Note 4 not recognizing any SIM card

Note 4 not recognizing any SIM card
Wondering if any of you experts out there can help me out.
I have the Canadian version (SM-N910W8) of the Note 4 (pretty much same as the T-Mobile version) which works fine except this one issue which is puzzling me. The phone will not recognize any SIM card (have tried many) but has no issues with SD cards or connecting to WiFi. I have gone so far as to replace the SD and Sim Card ribbon & antenna cables with new ones, tried official Samsung TouchWiz & custom ROMs but the issue persists.
There are many posts on the Internet about Samsung phones which stop recognizing SIM cards and asking users to re-insert it or reboot the phone but mine simply refuses to recognize any and all SIM cards. Have tried adding a piece of paper, tape, etc... on top of the SIM to no avail.
Any suggestions?
