Something strange happened to my Artemis, I was charging the phone with the original charger, whilst the phone was turned on.
I may have left it charging a few hours longer even after the charge light turned green.
I removed it from the charger, then it intermitently displayed no service, and then searching for network, and remained in service for a few minutes and then it repeated the whole process for about 5 - 6 times and then it displayed "No Sim"
The sim card works on other phones, but no matter whatever sim card i put into the artemis, it still cannot detect any of them.
I tried bending the contacts up a bit to help connection, and even tried slipping paper behind the sim card to push the sim card into the contacts more
nothing worked, I am not sure what else to do other than re-flash the rom,
has anyone experienced similar problems, please. I really want to get the phone function/sim detection working again.
Cheers
Change simcard i have the same problem with my XDA Orbit ( HTC Artemis)

how long have you had the phone? if no sim works i'd of thought the phone has had it
mine started going funny as i was switching between o2 and orange sims a lot, after a while it had difficulty finding the sim, but always worked after inserting/removing the sim a few times
i had my phone warranty repaired with o2, considering i'd already renewed my contract was surprised they still did it, but 2 years is 2 years warranty thats the only thing i can think of?
ive had this prob with my orbit,i ended up hard reseting the phone for it to recognise the sim

I used my phone a few days ago then put it on a shelf. The battery ran down and I left it. I then plugged it in, turned it on and left it to charge. When I came back to the phone it said 'No Sim' or similar. I have taken the battery out, cleaned the connections, taken the sim and memory card and done the same then put it all back. For some reason the phone will not recognise that I have put a SIM in there. I do not have another SIM to test but why would it suddenly stop working? Could this be a radio problem?
I am running Oops Black v1.0 WWE Rom WM6.1 CE OS 19949 on an XDA Orbit.
Thank you!
Please...anyone...help?
I cant call my girlfriend, friends or family I have no money to buy a new phone and O2 have said that becuase its out of warranty they cannot help.
I have tried flashing the phone with a new ROM but that has not made any difference. I managed to test the SIM earlier on another phone and the SIM works fine. Must be the phone.
You just need to hard/soft reset until it picks up the SIM. I was just having this issue with my Kaiser and you just need to keep puttin the sim in and out until the phone picks it up. Also try putting the sim into the sim slot and pushing it down onto the contacts.

Any one help??
I have just one big gripe with the hox and that is that a few times per day the sim card is not recognised anymore and I have to reenter the PIN. In the known issues I saw it mentioned. Does anyone know if my device is at fault or if it is a sim fault or some software issue. (the problems occurs with both stock and custom roms)
Get a proper sim and try it.

the sim is a proper sim microsim, I just bought
I just got a new sim, had to get all upset and angry at the Vodafone store to get it without having to pay for it but the problem still persists
no one has any ideas on how to fix this? or even if my phone is defect or if it is a software bug?
No one with this problem? Today it just happened about 6 or 7 times in a row, I tried to reboot the device, even turning of fastboot but the problem persisted; The device felt warm (just warm, not hot) and the battery seems to have drained a lot with most of it drained by screen (42%) but also mobile standby (23%) with 21% left.
I have the opposite problem mine is all the disconnected and connects some times
I think it might be the same issue, which carrier are you on?
I'n On Maxix Malaysia
Is this the same problem?

no, I am losing sim and therefor connection but the problem is with the sim, not network per se.
I was having issues in the last few weeks with having a data connection, after some hours/day suddenly my data connection wouldn't want to connect anymore because "the service is unavailable", every time i had to pull out the sim and put it back in and it would reconnect the data connection..
Except this time when i did it, it suddenly doesn't even want to connect to the normal network..
Looking at me sim, it seems kinda damaged already by 3 stripes that are carved into the sim.. (see attachment)
It might be that those pins that are connecting to the sim inside are too close on the sim tray?
Could this be indeed the issue that was causing my data to not connect too? Unfortunately i cannot test it with another sim, nobody near me uses a nano sim..
I can't imagine those lines would cause any damage to the contacts, it looks completely normal to me. It's just what happens when it's inserted and re-inserted numerous times.
I'm sure your carrier would give you a free replacement SIM, and it would be even easier if you have one of their stores nearby, where they can just give you another SIM card there and then.

Yeah i just ordered 2 free sims from 2 different providers, see if i have the same "Disconnected because service is unavailable" with my data connection...
It's really odd that it works for a few hours/days before it stops working each time.. except now.. still can't get any data connection, signal started working again after re-inserting the sim couple more times...
Now suddenly it's working again.. but for how long..
Could logcat detect the problem here if i keep it running?
Hello,
Maybe you guys can help me out before I throw this phone in the dumpster.
So my phone started to overheat for no apparent reason and would shut off completely and I took it to the shop to repair,apparently the charging port was the issue, they fixed it for a reasonable price and it was all good.
Day went by with no problems and now today I cant make calls, text or use mobile data. The signal keeps going from 4 bars to 3 to 1 to the no entry sign for both sims.
I've tried swapping the sims, putting just 1 sim in i even factory reset the phone but still nothing, im not sure what else to do here. maybe my sim cards are interfering with each other or theres some obvious issue im missing?
I've tried both sim cards with another phone and both work fine, i instantly receive the configuration message from my phone provider as soon as i boot up the other phone with the sim in it but with the a50 im getting nothing.
No 4g no messages no calls nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The phone is in near perfect condition bought it about 6 months ago and I dont really want to spend any more money taking it to the repair shops and i'll end up just buying another phone.
Thanks.
