The SIM card is missing

Hi,
I upgraded my Artemis to MW6 and now I get this error. "The SIM card is missing".
My ROM version is: 3.4.0.207.2 WWE
Radio Version: 02.67.90.
Eran

Oh dear, I got this on my O2 EXEC and then it started doing weird stuff and now its a brick.Hope u have better luck than me

just install the sim card again and the problem is over. That worked for mij artemis

i have arte100 wich has the same problem ...how to install sim card ?!

anyone knows how can i install the sim card ??

still looking for the SIM, LOL.
RTFM!

remove the battery cover and remove the battery, then remove the sim card by unlocking the clip and then place it back in and boot it up again

I had the same problem. I put another SIMCard in my Artemis and it was detected. After this my "old" Card worked again, too.
Removing battery and so on didn't solve the problem...

I had a probleme like that...i tried everything... nothing changed... Finally, I was really lucky, Orange changed my mobile for free (it's was still under warantly).

i tried tons of different sim cards,i opened the phone and put back together at least twice... nothing seems to work...

remove both sim card and sd card and flash the rom again and it should work...
i usually flash my device with both of them,but it is generally suggested to remove them

the same thing happens to me. i insert my t-mobile sim and everything works fine. but when i try my 3 sim nothing works!
im about to try another sim. wish me luck

looks like it was just the sim. 3 is one funny company. i hate them anyways!

For the problem solved by :
-Upgrade ROM with the last HTC original ROM (for me : HTC_P3300_FRA_3.13.406.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R.exe)
-USPL with "1.11.cmon"
-Upgrade or Downgrade to Rom Radio 3.18.90
-Upgrade with a new rom (for me Shady313 build 23034b1)
-Upgrade Rom Radio to 3.21.90
At the end, you will have a ARTE100 with :
IPL : 3.13.0001
SPL : 1.11.cmon
Radio : 3.21.90
Rom : ....

My Solution
Same problem here
My solution is:
1. Open Comm Manager
2. Switch on Plane Mode (by selecting Plane icon)
3. Switch on Phone Mode again (by selecting Phone icon)
This solution work most of the time for me.
Hope this can help.
Sorry for my English.

The cause for it
does anyone know why is this happening ?
the cellphone gets worst and worst untill one day it never reads a sim card again... I changed the rom from a device and I unlocke SIM and CID, but forgot to remove the SIM card, is this the reason ?
how could i solve this because I see really nice 6.5 WMs out there... I luckly sent the phone back to HTC in brazil and they changed for me, but I am scared to try again, is there anyone here who knows a solution ???
or how to avoid this ?
come on it has passed over 1 year and no answers... I boght from TIM brazil and even a sim card from them would not work after I flashed...

I have the same problem, and have no idea what i can do
My phone work with every other sim, but only not with my...

On mine I did this and worked:
go to registry editor
HKEY LOCAL MACHINE\ControlPanel\Phone
Menu New DWORD Value
Name it ShowSim
add the value 1 and press ok
(maybe a restart is needed)
Hope you can get lucky

hey, my artemis has just started doing this, for the past few days i go to sleep at night and device is ok, but when i wake up in the morning my device says ''insert SIM'' and no programs work but ''start menu''..
* i was going to take a screen-shot with V.SNAP and make a thread - but no programs would open..at all... weird because if device is booted with no SIM card, programs work.. never mind tho.lol
so i reset device and when it boots back up my SIM card is recognised but with no signal.
so i reset device and it works again..hmmmm..
* this does not happen every day, but its happening more often
i first noticed something was wrong when all was normal and then the signal bar turned into ''!'' and would stay like that until soft reset.
really hope that this is not the start of something bad.
* i strongly doubt this is a problem with the ROM or registry!
* if anything i think this is a hardware issue..maybe.. or the SIM card!

* i strongly doubt this is a problem with the rom or registry!
* if anything i think this is a hardware issue..maybe.. Or the sim card!
my artemis just wouldnt load the sim card the other day - at all!
Heres how i got it back to life again...
Open the device up and check all screws are screwed in properly, clean and put back together..
Easy!
This worked for me..

Same Problem
Hello again,
i have the same problem, i search for a result but now i upgrade the radio, but now i cant flash the radio again, it start to hang at 11%...

I had a similar problem on my Wizard one time.
I ended up fixing it by flashing on of the giant original shipping roms.
The rom includes everything and was the only way I could recover from the corrupt radio flash.
Hope this helps you.

Try testing your radio with other sim (some other operator's sim
is prefereabile, in your region)
hopes must not die. I will work again

these problems are caused be something glitching up in the flash, not the sim

Got the same problem: the radio died without any new flash
If you find a solution, I have some interest too

Try to flash again, i had same errors after i flashed some different ROM`s.
What i remember just right now:
I get a new sim card on thursday since then i have this no GSM error.
Now i`m scared to setup my connection because the device is running.
Had some connection losses but as long its working...
Not really.... i open Programms and scroll down then windows hang.
No UMTS connection i bought it because i want to read my emails, not just to make phone calls .
And to be honestly : to flash around
Still looking for a solution for that no GSM error.
Thank you for your attention.

Same Problem
I got an replacement from At&t because of the white screen effect on the Cingular version.
As soon as I load in the sim it gives me a no gsm message..
so i load up black X rc and the newest att radio and i still get the message..
So finally i hard reset a couple of times and it goes away..
Now the only thing is that the connection reset a lot and even flashing back to the original raido with an downgraded ipl and spl still doesn't solve that. I even got a new sim and no luck.
I even went to the point of simunlocking it and it still doesn't work.
Keep in mind that this is the new att 8525 and the cingular 8525 worked better even it i cudn't see the screen..lol

you guys have tried the file off this page, right?
http://www.america.htc.com/support/8525/software-downloads.html

yea i tried the one off htc's website i get an error about 11% thru, any other ideas because im going crazy i have no gsm no phone service no service period!! HELP!!!

Yes, the latest supported wm5 is the one i had originally.
Any ideas from anyone?

hey..... just for understanding....
ur RADIO ROM version is - 1.16.00.00. Hope you know that this has to be separately updated, and is not included in any of the ROMs available in the cooked format e.g schaps....
may i suggest that you upgrade to one of the latest RADIO ROMs, available here - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
The 1.48 RADIO ROM seems particularly stable all around the world, so go ahead and give it a try - ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Hermes/HERM_Radio_Only_1.48.00.10_CustomRUU.rar
After that, you could choose Schap's latest ROM and upgrade to the same; and check if things work out.
EDIT: I see that you have flashed different radio roms already......
NOOB's ANSWER TO THIS PREDICAMENT: Downgrade to the offficial radio and ROM. And see to it that you restore your SPL i.e., follow the procedures of removing olipro.... and take it to your nearest O2 dealer...

Maybe this helps ?
How about this one:
Flash your ROM radio etc.
Take out the battery for 20 minutes.
Yesterday i flashed the original O2 ROM after it said No GSM again.
I was mad and took out the battery.
In the morning i inserted the battery again and since then no problem.
To test this if its really working i flashed a HTC ROM, after configuration etc. i took out the battery again, waited ~ 20 minutes.
Because it said no GSM again after flashing HTC ROM.
Looks like its working (for me)
Edit
No its not working
The original O2 ROM was working almost perfect just flashomanianing it back ... Hope it will work .

similar problem plz plz help
hey.. i would really appreciate if you guys could help me out with this one (i am a noob =(( )
One perfect night i loose reception and unable to retain it(no gsm). it seems like i cannot find my network (AT&T) i have the AT&T 8525 phone.
when i go to settings>system>device information, my radio field is blank, i persume thats the problem.. i have tried to install some, but none seem to go through completely.. I have installed vp's WM6 + addons ROM, but it is still blank..

Flashed WM5 same error = No GSM
Sometimes it shows No R No G
Tested it with 3 different operators sim card.
Setup a complete new OS on my notebook (because i thought a virus maybe and it corrupted the downloaded files).
During the flash process i even dont breathe but no help
Flashed HTC ROM with radio 1.47... interrupted the second update/setup process.
Was ok for 3 hours.
Are we all just beta testers from HTC and MS ?

Im still getting the same issue. Although I unlocked and superCID the deviece I will try to get a warranty exchange on it. It was messing up before I did any of that so I don't think that it should matter. I just want my old Cingular 8525... but i guess i have to keep on trying until I get a good one.

Hi did you ever find a solution to the radio rom flash hanging at 11% i have the same problem I can flash the os but the radio rom always hangs at 11% so nice pda no phone options

Ladies and gentlemen, I had the same problem, and I fixed it. Here's my story.
I was an idiot one night. Pulling my trusty 8525 from my pocket to read a text message, I instead dropped it. On its face. On pavement. From waist height.
I know, I cringed, too.
Ever since then, I got the No GSM error, and radio ROMs refused to flash beyond 11%, except the original factory ship ROM which got as far as 12%. Everything else worked perfectly except the radio.
I took it to one of the IT guys at work who suggested that I may have damaged something on the mainboard, but here's another 8525 you can play with if you want, because it's in the recycle box and will be going out the door to be recycled soon and we won't see any money out of it anyway, so here, it's yours.
Problem was, 8525-b had video issues. SOMETIMES would get the whitescreen. ALWAYS wrapped the bottom ten or fifteen rows of pixels up to the top of the screen. But the phone worked flawlessly.
Then, I discovered that the "video card" is separate from the main circuit board. Therefore, 8525-a had problems with the mainboard, and 8525-b had problems with the videoboard.
The solution presents itself.
Took them both apart, took the mainboard from the 8525-b and installed it into the 8525-a.
My Hermes is back. Everything functions flawlessly, including the radio. And everything flashes, too.
Point of the story: I don't know if you dropped your phone or if maybe something else may have caused some damage, but the only way that I was able to work around the radio rom flash hanging at 11% issue was to replace the mainboard. I got lucky, I was good friends with the IT guy. But I was never able to find another solution.

Problem with wm6 rom on mdaIII

Hallo,
I've got a big problem with my MDAIII. After the upgrade to WM6 rom my radio doesn't work anymore. I have tried to update the Radio rom but with no succes. Every radio rom update tool i dowload will not work.
I read many wiki's and posts but come no further.
I have read that i have to downgrade to WM3, then update my radiorom and then update to WM6. But the problem is the downgrade roms to WM2003 doesn't work too.
The other strange thing is when i put out my battery and then put it back and startup my pda he says:
R:None
G:None
D:6.11.00.wwe
But when i gave the device a soft reset or hard reset the versions are:
R:1.00.00
G:1337.30
D:6.11.00.wwe
What are the real numbers?
Who can help me?
Sad MDAIII user
Edit:
If i give the device a hard reset and the startup screen give me this info:
R:1.00.00
G:1337.30
D:6.11.00.wwe
then the phone accepts the pin code from my simcard, but after the accept the device gives the message unknown SIM status.

Problem solved. Found a Radio rom that can install in bootloader mode. Or they al have to i don't actualy know.

Can you ponit me to the radio rom that actually works?
I have the same problem, although I install radio updates in bootloader, no one is kept when I remove the battery.
thanks

on WM5, WM6 and WM6.1, when u take out the battery, you need to soft-reset the device to allow the radio to boot.

ive lived with this 'issue' ever since i started flashing roms over my blueangel wm2003.
it's never been a problem...more of a minor annoyance to have to 'double-boot'.
say for example..if I've changed simcards and is switching on device for the first time id have to
1. switch on
2. reset to get the radios recognised

Help pls! Can't USPL or upgrade radio or rom anymore

Hi,I have an xda orbit (O2 uk) and I ran the USPL super CID on it which went thru fine. I then did an OS upgrade from the official O2 website to WM6. However my phone wouldnt make calls or accept calls. The signal bars were initially low which made me suspect the radio not being optimum. Tried to upgrade the radio from 3.06.90 to 3.08 or 3.19 but it kept on giving an error 270 - file corruption,tried flashing to another rom and still the same error.I then tried to re -USPL it and even that wont take... Can someone please help me out with this as I am at my wits end to a solution...Thanx a lot

still sweating....
ok...update so far...repeated the flash over and over again, Hard reset and moved the enable and cert rapi to the xda and ran them there first after taking out the sd card. finally it took after a few more atempts. I then ran artemis 20273 rom which flashed easily....HOWEVER even though the signal bars are still up I cant call out or receive calls. Dialling out ,the call disconnects immediately even before it rings (like 0.5secs after i hit the send key). If I call the phone I get a message that calls are not currently being connected to that number! (i know the sim cards working as its my main number) Anyways run uspl again and flash radio to 3.18...goes thru easily but still no calls in and out. Is there anyone with an idea as to the problem or solution.

Can´t make calls!!!

Hello, i have windows mobile 6.1 portuguese instaled and since 3 days ago i can´t use the PDA as a phone, i can´t make calls, receive, etc...
I have a portugese sim card (TMN) and i have tryed to install again the windows mobile rom but didn´t solve the peoblem.
Please help,
Thanks

Did you flashed any radio rom?

Hello Zecanilis, i have used the "Artemis Update SPL (USPL) v.01" and then the "ARTEMIS_RUU" to have windows mobile in portuguese, and it worked for a cople of days, but since last friday i think, i cant use it as a phone. It says allways "A procurar".
Thanks

Try to flash a new Radio ROM.
Flash 3.34.90...

That didn´t work

Then you have a hardware fault...

Same problem...
Hi everyone.
I also have an friend's artemis that was always 100% until a few days ago.
It went with no apparent reason from normal GSM Service to "Limited Service" and the to "No SIM Card".
I've tried:
1- Downgrade and upgrade radio Rom's
2- Hard Reset
3- Reinstall Ark's ROM (but the problem is not here for sure)
4- Install Original WM6 PTG ROM
5- Test different SIM Card's
Still all I get is the "No SIM Card" message.
Any ideas before a trip to HTC Service Centre?

Hi guys, i had a similar issue sometime ago, with the sim card and the micro sd card, with me it was the contact pins of the device that were a bit dirty, and the sim was a bit old too, i changed the sim card and cleaned the pins, after that i had no more issues.
Hope it helped.
Cheers.

yes... I've forgot that tinny detail...
That should be the first thing to see... LOL

That wasn´t my problem because i put him a new simcard and it doesn´t work.
If i put automatic search it keeps searching all the time, if i put manual, i choose the brand (TMN), he gives the signal but don´t make calls, don´t receive, nothing...
Anyone with the same problem?
