Hello everyone. I just got my new phone from best buy. My phone is on the sprint network and it doesn't have a sim card. In the top left corner it says "insert sim card" can I get rid of this notification? Also do I need a sim card? Thanks in advance.

GO back to Best buy. The phone should have included a Sim card. and you need it to get rid of that notification and in order to use sprints LTE network.

Thank you very much. I called best buy and they said sprint doesn't use sim cards and after a few minutes of questions I was transfered to mobile and they said that I should in fact have a sim card. Thank you very much.

If you are able to make phone calls and access your LTE data then you already have the microSIM inside. When I got mine I had the Simcard but I needed to push it in for activation.
Hope it works.
Nope I have no sim card at all. I can call people and still have 3 service. I just need sim for LTE. I really just want to get rid of notification. LTE isn't available nor will it be for a long time

Don't wait to get one, go back to Best Buy right away and tell them to give you one or return the phone. You might not have LTE now but you are out of luck if don't have a sim card. I think I read somewhere a while back that the sim card for sprint must be paired with your phone to work properly so you don't want to mess around. Make Best Buy give you the sim or tell them to replace your phone with a new phone that has a sim in it.
You need a SIM card
I have a Sprint SGS4 and it has a SIM card in the SIM card slot.

Sorry about reviving an old thread, but I figured this thread fits, so no need to make a new one.
Anyway, I just bought a Sprint Tab 4 second hand. I have no need or plans to use it on a mobile network. It is going to just be used on wifi. The previous owner did not include the SIM card, so I have the "No SIM - Insert SIM card" message in my notification panel all the time. No way to dismiss it. Does anyone know if there is a way to dismiss it? I am a Sprint customer - maybe they would just give me one free if I stopped by a Sprint store, but I highly doubt that...
Specifically, I have the SM-T237P model running Android 4.4.2 NL1 build. And I am rooted.

Try adding the line to your build.prop, save, and reboot:
keyguard.no_require_sim=true
Although you'll need to look for the line to see if it says false and change it to true. If the line is present it should be near the beginning of Additional Build Properties.

You could just buy a micro SIM card, they are cheap on eBay.

Hi guys, long time reader - finally signed up because I am stumped. I bought my N4 through Virgin Mobile Canada which is HSPA+. It actually works out cheaper than buying it from Google.
first off, yes I searched. alot. Anyways, I have a AT&T sim that I use while traveling in the states that when I put in my N4 and I get the error that "network not available" even while in the USA. Does this mean it is carrier locked? I dont have another micro-sim to try in it and I know the sim is good because it works in my unlocked blackberry.
Everything that I have read regarding locked LG phones says it will give you an error to enter an unlock code when you put in the SIM although it does not. and the code for LG to bring up the unlock screen does not work.
Does anyone know if Virgin locks the N4? There is absolutely no branding / bloat so I didnt figure they had tinkered with it. Thanks!
You need to fiddle around with the APN settings, AT+T is weird that way.

hi, thanks for your reply, that didnt seem to do it though. I found a few on here (tho i cant post the links due to being a noob). Here are some screenshots of the APN settings I used, and the resulting error when I try to change carrier to AT&T:

I tried the Cingular settings... no dice. I have read though that once you use a go phone sim in a phone att locks your imei to that sim. Any idea if that true?
Btw, I used my sim in a black berry for a few months before getting the n4 so maybe att looked its imei to the sim? That even make sense?

Any idea if there is a way to verify that my N4 is not locked so that I can completely rule that out as an option? That way I know 100% the problem is with ATT, not with my phone?
well guys, i can confirm that if you buy a nexus 4 through Virgin it is NOT carrier locked.
turns out my problem was that AT&T locked my sim to my old phone. I just called ATT and they unlocked my sim (which was locked to my old blackberry), then I put it in my N4 and it worked! woohoo!!!
Hello, a friend of mine is sending me a Motorola Droid X from Verizon USA, I live in Romania, Europe. Is there any chance I can get make this phone work in my country?
What should I do? Change the firmware? Network unlock? Can anybody give me a solution to this problem?
I really like that phone and I want to use it as my secondary phone.
Thank you!
Droid x is coma only, so it has no gms sim card slot
Not sure about non us coma, maybe able to find a local phone shop that can flash it
Don't think that is likely

Depends if you have cdma in your country. I was a bit shocked when my dx arrived because in new Zealand we dont have a CDma network. Most phones are GSM and unlocked. So I just use my dx for web browsing. Etc

dear friends, I asked this friend of mine if the Droid X has a sim card slot and he said yes. so is not a coma phone. I think if it has a sim card slot can be made to work on my network in here. However must work also in South Africa because I leaving in there soon. I own also a Samsung Galaxy S1 unlocked but to be honest I think the Droid X may be better!

The package is on the way. I tooked a little bit more than I expected, so I don't know exactly the model. However my friend told me he got it from Verizone (so I supose is locked on that network) and it has a sim card slot. He told me is a Motorola Droid X but who knows? I found on gsm arena however that they have a mini sim card slot. You know..the small sim ones?
What's the catch?
In my country only one network provide CDMA2000 1xEV-DO (as the phone specifies on gsmarena), and this is Cosomote. Whatever, I don't mind if I can make it work! Is a nice phone isn't?

Hello I just got my Verizone. Well what can I say, is useless in my country so I try to resell it whatever. I put it also on ebay.com for USA. Does anybody know how I can get and flash the European ROM version? I know is this Verizone and the standard Droid X ROM also for European Countries. I did a research but no results.
I rooted my phone though and I got rid from some Verizone Junk.
Any idea though?
Do we have any idea yet if the Verizon model has any type of lock on the sim card? I'm going to be visiting Europe soon and I'm planning on swapping in a local SIM card while I'm there. Just curious if any type of unlock code is needed or if it's a simple change out.

Mine is not
Doesn't look like it's unlocked for domestic SIM's, but it may still work for international SIM's when abroad.
I popped in an AT&T SIM to my Verizon G2 and couldn't get any data.

Does the Polish sim APN need to change MCC MNC ?
I try G2 with China unicom sim, and set up APN, it works.(didn't need to change MCC MNC)
But it fail when I use China telecom simcard, because the APN MCC MNC can't change to 460 03 for china.
You can set up everything in APN except MCC MNC items.
I have just bought the LG G2 out here in Qatar. The model says it is a D802 which say it's from the Uk. When I put my Vodafone sim card in the phone my mobile network choice does not include LTE auto (only allowed to choice when there is a sim card in the phone) I also have an LG Optimus G Pro which give me the choice of network which includes LTE auto (even without a sim card fitted). Does this mean the phone isn't 4G after all, or is it far too clever for it's own good and only allows you to have LTE auto as a network choice with a 4G sim card inserted?
Is it possible someone who owns a D802 model of the G2 to post a photo of their network choices in settings to prove that LTE or LTE auto is available?

Hey, yeah for some reason the only way I got mine to stick was to flash the ASIA or the MEA firmware. Not necessarily recommending this, but it is how I got around it - the UK firmware was not pulling up the LTE options.

Even if you were rooted, my best guess is samsung would still need to enable esim in the north American firmware for it to work. Now if changing the CSC features xml triggers a change in the euicc type in the system, that's a different story. But I think all that would really do is give the sim management menu in the settings menu, which you can already get to with activity launcher.

Crippled dual sim , and carrier locking of devices all points to this.

Crippled dual sim , and carrier locking of devices all points to this.

This is where I have to give Apple some credit with the iPhone.
They decided when to turn on eSIM features. Basically telling carriers to go pound sand.
I have an unlocked Xs and the eSIM feature is fantastic. I kept the primary line on the eSIM and used the physical SIM for when I was in an area with poor coverage.
If my coverage sucked, I would grab a local prepaid SIM, forward all my calls from my main line to the prepaid number and all was good.

Thanks. I also have unlocked U1 using Tmobile SIM and now after beta 2 upgrade, I can see two IMEIs'.

Well I've changed the csc to true, installed the manager for eSim under priv-apps, and added a build.prop which enabled the sim manager. Once I go into the manager, I get an error: "Invalid eSim chipset. Do not use this device for eSim Test"
The esim IMEI is also UNKNOWN
The build.prop was persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds
The APK I added was EuiccService
Let me know if any one has anything else I can test. I really want to get this working if we can.

Thanks for trying for all of the 986U1 users.
Please search my post "Find 2 IMEI". I believe you not using the ZTK1 firmware yet. Make sure you can see 2 IMEIs and try to enable some settings in the service menu.
Please keep us updated.

I've got someone else with root that was on the ZTK1 firmware to try it. With all the options that I have listed above it still has not changed. They are able to see 2 sims on the update, but can't do anything with it.
If there are more suggestions let me know.
