I just recently uprgraded to 6.1 and had no problems for a few days but the last few days ive been getting text messages late and people are receiving mine late and more then 1 of the same message.Could there be a promlem with the new Rom ???? Could my service be having temporary problems or could it be my phone?What the best explanations from the pros
It's not uncommon to receive late text messages. More than likely it's the carrier. Rebooting your phone may help reduce lost or missing txt messages.
Could be an issue with the sim card also. Thats what T-Mobile told me anyway. Was having the same issue, and people would call me, but the phone would not ring, and I would suddenly have a voice mail. New sim card and no more problems

That's probably not so much the SIM card as the HLR that the SIM card is tied to or the MSC that is processing the call. Basically, the data required to communicate with all SIM cards is stored on the HLR, and if something isn't correct with the datafill on the HLR or the MSC, then problems could happen. A new SIM card would mean a new HLR (or at least a different SIM card range on the HLR) and could eliminate problems.
Perfectly stated. I would recommend getting a new SIM card if the problem persists because it will tend to fix the problem.

I've been on the phone for similar problems with t-mobile for a total of about 4 hours, and they've never been able to give me a solution. How do I get a new sim? Tell them mine's broken and i need a new one? I don't think tech support would just give me one like that. Tell them that I took mine out and it fell in the couch cushions? Would there be a charge for a lost sim?

I broke and replaced the screen in my unlocked upgraded flashed-ROM wallaby and the unit now starts up and reports invalid SIM.
Is there any solution or should I re-flash the rom again and see if that works, hope for the best?
Try the SIM in a different (unlocked) phone, to make sure the SIM isn't fried. If the SIM is fried, you can get a new one from your provider. SIMs do get fried sometimes -- it happened to me a couple months back. Fortunately my provider (Cingular) has a shop just down the road from me, and they burned a new SIM in 5 minutes.
I apologise, I should have said
Sorry, I should have said, it does work in another machine and as I said, it did work immediately I used the xda flashing process to upgrade the ROM in this very unit before I dropped it.
Everything else in the new ROM seems to work which makes it infuriating that it wont recognise the SIM. I even tried calling T-Mobile and asking them if they could see the SIM on their network and they couldn't.
(I even have one of those SIM copying devices they send you free for some unknown reason when they want you to upgrade your service to some kind of higher level SIM card. I was wondering if I should try to use it again but as mine does work, this, like the whole copying device, seemed a bit academic)
Ok When I Turn My Dash On Now I Get A Screen That Say ..sim Card Is Missing Or Is Invalid...i Even Tried My Wifes Sim Card Does The Same Thing...any One Got Any Ideas...my Other Dash Works Fine.....please Help I Tried Reboots And Different Roms...etc...still Does It Seems Like The Phone Isnt Reading My Sim Card..the Phone Is Only 1 Month Old..
Are you sure the phone is SIM unlocked? Or if the SIM card is the right one for the phone? There's really only one correct way to insert a SIM card....Are you sure this isn't an ID10T error? PEBKAC error maybe?

What network do you have, and where did you get your phone from. I can try to help you out from here just let me know the network and where you have your phone from. Also tell me if the phone is tmobile branded (if it says tmobile on it in the front).

I have the same problem. When I was running WM6, I would get this error multiple times throughout the day and I'd have to turn the PHONE function off then back on or sometimes I'd even have to do a soft-reset to get my Dash to recognize my SIM. Now that I have flashed my to Kavanna's WM6.1 I only get this error once a day, but I'd like to know how to stop it from happening.
Network: T-Moblie
Bought From: Ebay
Branded: Yes
Sim Unlocked: No
App Unlocked: Yes
WM 6.1 Standard
Radio Version 4.1.13.51_03.07.90
RIL Version 2.002
CE OS 5.2.19700 (Build 19700.1.1.0)
Thanks in advance.
If you have not exchanged your SIM in a while it could just be that the SIM is old, yeah it happens. It is free to swap out your SIM card at any T-Mobile retail store. I had this problem about a year ago and I simply went to T-Mobile and they gave me a new SIM (they just copy the contents of your SIM to a new one and program it with your number. Solved my SIM error message.
Also your SIM may be inserted wrong, it could be dirty (the contacts can 'gloss over') or there is dirt / dust in the SIM holder.. blow it out.
If all the above fails then it is the device, if under warranty have it replaced.
I had the SIM card replaced by T-Mobile about a month ago and that solved the problem for a couple of days, but now it's back. I made sure it is aligned right and clean.
Any other ideas?
Hi,
My stock Nexus will display emergency calls only till i take sim card out put it in another phone then that phone will get signal and then put the sim back in Nexus and it gets signal until i go into a no signal area then i have to repeat process to get signal back.
This is really strange and a restart or just taking sim out and in again doesn't work.
After this has all been done i get full signal and its fine till i lose signal then have to start again only started happening a few days ago.
can anyone please help.
Get a new sim card? Update/switch radios?
I actually had the same error, for me switching sim cards helped.
Try it.
It sounds like its the SIM not your phone.
The sim works fine in other phones though

But the fact that the SIM doesn't work in your GNex until it's put into another phone means it's the SIM's problem... how would the GNex know that it's been put in another phone rather than just taken out and put back in?

Maybe its a dumb sim?
Really try another sim
Galaxy Nexus AOKP m5 Franco kernel m3
k tried a Virgin sim (im on three) and that seemed to work fine so im going to ask for a another sim card from three.
Was the problem anyhow solved? It looks like I'm experiencing the same problem, but GN doesn't read my sim card that is readable in other phones and reads other sim cards.
for some random reason after 3 days it stopped doing it i think it was the three network not the phone or sim.
I bought my note 4 on launch day. Ever since then I've had an "unable to detect sim card please restart phone" error. At first it only showed up once every few days, but now it is getting more and more frequent and is happening multiple times a day. After reading starting the phone works fine for a while. I've done everything I can think of (pulling the battery, pulling and re inserting the sim, cleaning the sim), but nothing helps. Anyone else having this issue, or know of a solution? Thank you.

I am having the same issue. Not sure of a fix yet but it is getting more and more frequent which worries me.
Same here. :sadface:
Same here! Anybody contact Samsung or Sprint about it?
Same here!!!
Just got my note 4 from Amazon.com. I had been reading about the lte to 3g call drop issue, and someone posted using there sim the card from the phone they were replacing fix this issue. So I put mine in from my s4 before i even turn it on for the first time. The phone worked, but was unable to connet to the 4g (lte / spark ) network. 3g worked fine. I got the message you all are getting (no sim, restart device....). It would happen like every 10 minutes. Once I put the sim that came with the phone in , all my problems went away. Long story short, you need another sim card.
I just called sprint and they are sending me another SIM card. It happens from time to time, but they did tell me if it continues, I can get it replaced for no charge.

This happened after my sim card swap. It would say "network did not respond in time" then "could not detect sim" then phone would reboot. It did it three different times. Then connection became stable and has not done it again. Not sure if these issues are the same as whats happening here. Just posting my experiences.
I actually bought 2 N910P. I planned on making a little extra money by selling 1 of them, but didn't count on the N910P being so easy to get, so I've held onto the other one for a back up until I found a ROM that I wanted to run on it. Well, I found a awesome ROM & booted up my 2nd N910P & got the message you have all mentioned. I thought it was strange, so I rebooted & got the same message again. After doing this a few times, I thought why not take my SIM card from the 1st N910P & put it in the 2nd N910P. I still got the same message after doing this, so I swapped them back before it messed up my primary SIM card. @Yoshi1221, please keep me/us updated if the new SIM card works for you. Has anybody else got a new SIM card? Also, after installing the 2nd ROM that I was trying out, the fingerprint scanner stopped working. I went back to stock & it still doesn't work, so I made sure that I did a full NANDROID backup on my 2nd N910P in hopes that once I get it working & the fingerprint scanner stops working, I can go back. Anyone else had this trouble?
Edit: I tried to activate my new GN4, but the DEC & HEX numbers were not recoginzed by Sprint.com. So I went into chat & they informed me that it had been turned over to technical support & to contact them again after 24 hours, so we'll see where it goes from there.
Update: Chatted with Sprint & the lady activated the SIM card after giving her the number. Hope this will help out. Just go to Sprint.com & click on the chat button.
Looks like new SIM card is working, but just got it today, seriously had to give up an arm and leg in order for sprint to send me one, but so far it looks like it is working, but just got it today, lol

Cool, glad it work out for you.
Also found out from a supervisor in the U.S that sprint is now selling GSM phones now. If you take out the SIM card and only receive 3G, you have a GSM phone, if you take out the SIM card and have spark/LTE, you have a CDMA phone

I had this problem. Sprint sent me a new sim. Fixed the problem for a few weeks but it has returned. Anyone ever get this figured out?
Sim card not found
I had forgetten about this error. Saw that someone suggested a piece of paper between the sim and case cover. I had this happen with a phone I got off a forum. Sent it back and got a replacement. The paper, no matter how thin or thick may or maynot work, and only for a short time. Changing the sim might not work either. You may just need a new phone. I went through all with a s4. Now my note 4 is doing it. I thought it was my recently deceased (July 4) mother was messing with me. One more errand to add to my list for today.
same here?
help plz
Hello guys, i have some issues with my LG G3. As the title says, the phone isn't reading the sim card, sometimes, it's working just fine, for a couple of minutes, then, a countdown begins, saying "No sim card detected", in 10 seconds my phone will reboot and that's it. "No sim card detected" again.
Every other aspect is working just fine.
Things i've already tried:
- Switching sim card and switching the sim carrier.
- Replacing sim card & microSD reader.
- Pressing down the sim card at the startup.
- Hard / Factory reset.
All of those for nothing.
I'm thinking is an software problem, is that possible?
Exactly the same problem!! Has been in and had a new sim tray, worked for 3 days then back to no sim, no service, emergency calls only. Taped down sim, changed sim, factory reset, nothing!! I am so frustrated! It's only just over a year old too so I'm not due an upgrade and it's out of warranty.
I have same problem

unfortunately, this has nothing to do with our problem, my g3 shows the correct IMEI. will try to heat the area of the motherboard located behind the sim card reader with my heatgun. some guy got it to work like this ( though he did not show any actual evidence supporting his claim, and neither did i ask for it)
