I have some trouble getting sim to work on galaxy s6 edge plus, but i'll start from the beggining..
A month ago, when everything was fine i did a full backup in twrp, and just in case partitions backup (everything but system and cache).
What i did was a full wipe in twrp and restore twrp backup (Havoc-OS-v3.12-20210125-zenlte-Unofficial) and that happened.
I disassembled the phone. I needed to change the battery anyway so i had a look at the sim slot. It seems to be fine - no broken pins, they are shiny as new.
Sim card is working in another phone, and no other sim card is working in this S6Edge+...
Next thing that came to my mind was installing stock rom via odin and checking if that helps which it did't.
When I insert Sim card i have popup prompting to reboot but after that it still can't see any sim..

I pulled the SIM card out last night on my Note 3 and then put it back in. After booting up , the phone showed a "No SIM Card" error. I have tried to re-seat the card and have rebooted many times and it still does not work. My old Note 2 is being used by my son so I put his SIM card in my phone and it works just fine so obviously its a bad SIM card at this point which I confirmed by putting it in the Note 2 and it said the "No SIM Card" error. At this point I just need to go to Version and get a new SIM card. The question I have is, do I need to wipe my phone and put it back to a stock Rom or will Verizon just give me a new SIM and ignore the fact that it rooted? This issue really isn't a warranty situation so I was hoping to not have to go through all of that.

Why not use your son's Note 2 (unless it's also rooted) and get a new SIM Card? It doesn't matter which phone the sim card is put in, as long as it is associated with a Verizon phone number. Then you can switch the card back. I don't know if Verizon keeps track of "rooted" phones by customers in case you try to reset your phone to original and then claim a warranty.
Just my $0.02.
Cheers,

I went ahead and did a Nandroid backup and then reverted it to stock and will switch back after.

I usually swap sim cards with my phones when i need to and never have a problem. One time it wouldn't read and i had to use a screen cleaning cloth to wipe it off and it worked again.

Hi all,
I have a strange issue that I don't know how to fix.
This evening while using my phone I suddenly got SIM card not recognized message. I have tried these things to no avail:
-In "Settings" I can find my networks but my phone won't connect on them
-Powering down, pulling my SIM card out and reinserting it. No change
-Since I'm on CM12 I did factory reset and rolling back on previous versions of Nightly's. Still no change
-Again doing factory reset and installing SlimKat 9.0. No change
-Rolling even more back after another full wipe to SlimKat stable 7.0. Still got "Insert Sim Card"
I have flashed latest modem and bootloader when I migrated from SlimKat to CM12 since I was loosing signal when locking phone and that worked all until this evening.
Can anyone help please?
EDIT:
The model is GT-I9505 jfltexx
Update:
Just installed, again, 2/3G and LTE modems... no change
Inserted SIM card fro my wife... no change
You likely have a hardware issue. But before you go and replace the SIM card slot, revert to a stock ROM and see if that resolves the issue. Start with stock 4.4.2 and see if that works, then roll back to stock 4.2.2 if it doesn't. With luck, rolling back to one of the stock versions will resolve your problem. If it does, then you should be able to migrate back to SlimKat. If it doesn't, it will cost you about $10 USD (€9.41, BAM/KM18.35).
I encountered the same issue, and in my case not only was the SIM tray damaged but I had also lost my SIM unlock. Only by downgrading to 4.2.2 was I able to figure out that the SIM unlock was gone, but it wasn't until I had replaced the SIM card slot that I could do something about it.
Recently updated the cm12.1 to the cm12.1-20151002 one and now my sim card is not being detected by my phone. I've taken it out cleared cache tried a different sim none have worked all was fine before this update. Updated to cm12.1-20151003 still problem persists.
Help?
Go back to stock. If the device still cannot read the SIM after that, your SIM tray failed and needs replacing.
I've ran Oreo before with no issues but now it's saying that I don't have a SIM card inserted and that I have no IMEI or anything.. don't know what to do
You need to restore your EFS partition backup mate... I hope you have it somewhere.

Have you had your SIM out lately? No SIM detected is different from No Service. It may be your SIM slot is dirty or loose. Try another SIM to be sure. Some people with loose SIMs have put stuck a piece of paper or tape to the back of the SIM to press the gold contacts better against the contacts in the phone. If possible, try a SIM from a different carrier just for a few minutes to see if that SIM is detected. If you are getting a good connection you should see No Service, not SIM not detected. Lastly, if you have EVER made a backup from TWRP and still have it, you may have backed up a copy of your EFS partition. That or maybe you know someone else with a N6P that did. You can use that backup to restore the EFS partition.

Hey!
It works on Nougat. I just did a full reset with Oreo factory images and I have bars! EFS partition is fully intact. Thank you though, I am definitely going to backup my EFS and keep it in a safe place.
Update: I did a system wipe and installed a custom Oreo ROM and.. it.. went back to the same thing. Now I don't think it's the ROM, because I went to a stock FOTA package and it did the same thing. Guess I won't be using Oreo on this phone anytime soon.
Edit: I've made a logcat and I seem to have found the issue, but I don't know why that's happening..
Hi all,
I decided to upgrade my LineageOS (LOS) with MicroG installation to a newer version (v19), and I'm sure I didn't do it correctly. For one, I was supposed to upgrade to v18 first before upgrading to v19, but I went straight for v19. And two, I forgot to use LOS with MicroG files; I used just plain LOS files. Long story short, I'm sure I screwed up the upgrade process.
Anyways ... after the upgrade process, it booted into LOS v19 and everything seemed fine, but once I unplugged my phone, it would enter a boot loop. If I plugged it back into my computer it would exit the boot loop. In settings, I can see that there is no info "Phone number", "SIM status", or IMEI for both slots 1and 2.
If I remove the SIM card, the phone can be unplugged and it won't enter boot mode. In settings, SIM status for slots 1 and 2 say "Not available", but IMEI for both slots has a number.
I have the T-Mobile version of the phone.
Any ideas on how I can fix this? Or do I just need to flash this back to stock?
Thanks
Are you still having this issue or did you find a fix for it? I just got my unlock token for the T-Mobile 6T and followed the LineageOS wiki guide for the 6T. My phone is doing the very same thing yours is. Phone shows no SIM card inserted when there is one in, it will also randomly reboot shortly after installing one is phone is powered on then will boot loot until I wipe the phone. If I leave a SIM card out then the phone works as it normally would. If I leave it plugged into my PC when I insert the SIM card it works fine but still says no SIM is in the phone. I've used clean installes of the 9/22 and 9/15 versions of LOS19.

Sorry for the extremely late response. I either didn't get notified, or if I did, I forgot to reply back. Hopefully this helps you or someone else reading this.
I followed this guide and used the MSM tool to reset my phone. Note that guide is for the T-Mobile version.
Even though I've used that guide to reset the phone, I've used this guide which resets the phone and converts it to an international version. I like this better because you don't need the token to unlock the boot loader and you get other features not in the T-Mobile version, such as the option to manually update the phone (even though this update process didn't work for me for some reason).
If yours isn't T-Mobile, this MSM tool guide should work, even though I haven't tried it myself.
