Can any one tell me why my TAB will not recogize my valid, working SIM card from my other phone? Perhaps some setting on the TAB has to be changed?
Thanks for any info.
dude
dude i dont know. i tried the same thing. i have tmobile usa and the Galaxy Tab, along with my HTC HD2. tried the swap, no dice. saw my phone number, but would not txt, call, or receive calls. no data either.
My TAB doesn't even recognize when that the SIM is plugged in .
It keeps saying: "Please insert a SIM card". "Emergecy Calls Only".
This is going to sound really dumb but try shoving the SIM card in further. With certain brands of SIM you can get a "click" without the SIM being correctly seated in the tab. The tab will reboot if you insert a sim properly while it is on.
Problem solved! I thought that it was unlocked, but it wasn't. Followed Rothammer advise on unlocking and that worked like a charm.

I have the same problem with my SIM not being recognized. I have an AT&T Tab; unlocked [verified network is unlocked]; flashed with Rotohammer's most recent JME-Full; Baseband is I9000UGJK3; IMEI is OK; and Mobile Network is HSDPA. Interestingly, the signal strenth shows full bars, but does not recognize SIM and does not allow me to enter the Mobile Networks [grayed out] to change anything. I've tried every fix from every thread I can read here. Any thoughts anyone to get this to use voice and data?
Flash the Bell i900 modem for at&t tabs.
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.
i have a wreid issue in my s3 neo duos
the sim is in the right place he register in the network and everything looks perfect untill i try to make a call than the issue is that
he does not make the call it just stops and show ended
i dont know if it is a sim slot problem but i have tryed with another sim and i get the same issue but in the sim slot 2 he does the call
if it was a slot problem i guess that him will not even show the sim but it does not happen he shows the sim have signal but does not make anny call someone is having that same issue or know how to fix it ?
SIM problem with i9505
I have an s4 which was on Tmobile, i upgraded in a shop to a note 3 om EE and had my number ported to the note 3, ever since the s4 will not take an EE sim card, it just says there is no sim inserted, strangely though there is signal showing but when you try to dial out it says not registered on network, i have spoken to Tmobile, EE and taken it into numerous shops, essentially they are useless and dont want to know, i dont think the SIM socket is damaged as it takes every other sim and works fine. I just flashed an EE stock firmware to it but still it doesnt seem to accept the EE sim.
I have also put root checker on the phone which is saying the unit is not rooted properly, if that is so then surely i wouldnt have been able to flash the firmware to it ?.
Not sure what steps i should take now to try to sort this out, the carrier is denying that the problem was caused by them, some have said that it is locked from the EE network, if that was so i would have no service, not an uninserted sim error.
Is there something that will unlock it if indeed it is a lock problem (which i dont think it is)
Ok

Got the S5 the other day from my sister and tried to swap my spanish sim (from galaxy nexus) into the phone only to find it takes a micro sim. Had a look online and saw that you can try and cut the other one down. I have done this and sms and 4g work fine, but when I try to make a call it cuts out and says "call forwarding". I thought I'd try my english sim which is a micro and macro (has a pop out border). I can make calls with that in.
So... Is it the sim? Maybe network settings or something needing updating? Strange that data and sms work but calls don't.
Thanks for reading.
