I tried to change operator manualy.. but there isn't vodafone to pick.. I don't know what to do now.. plz help me.. I need my phone every day..
Slide a piece of paper in back of your sim card. Some times sim cards are not fat enough to get in contact with the sim reader. No one knows when your kaiser starts behaving like sim card isnt fat enough, it did for me 2 months ago and till now I have a piece of paper to do the remedy :|

Currently Android doesnt support locked sim cards. If you are using Haret Install, you need to PIN unlock your sim card before running Haret, or otherwise install Android on NAND only with an unlocked, right out of the box working sim card.
I know its bad but its this way. Here we usually block PUK code if our sim cards are lost / stolen

ok, I am cleaning out the closet and have a pair of Dash's I want to sell off, got the unlock code from T-Mobile for one and am having the devil of a time trying to figure out what to do. The 'insert foreign sim card' ... well stuck in an ATT sim I have (worked FINE on the G1's I want to sell off) gave me the 'enter unlock code' screen, etc...
On the Dash(s), it just freezes up after then phone boots (hangs at the T-Mobile screen), take it out, boots fine (and gives me the 'you don't have a sim card' message. Put in a T-Mobile sim, boots fine.
What noob mistake am I making? (this is with the dead stock WM6 rom, freshly reflashed).

Try and flash a cooked WM 6.1 rom and see if the sim unlock screen pops up.
I tried with a 6.5, will give a 6.1 a shot.
nope, didn't work, tried stock wm6, and a 6.1. This is an ATT 3G sim, wonder if that's the problem.. .gonna see if I can find a wm5 and try that!
Any ideas? Anyone else?
Should work with 6.1, 6.5 has had the problem with not showing the unlock input screen, if you still have problems i would advise getting a different provider pay&go sim and trying....
That's what I'm thinking but it's a brand new sim, and worked on unlocking my two G1's
Maybe the Excalibur doesn't like it? Just try a different sim even if it's just a nick one if m8's for 1-2 mins
Problem is it's TWO Dash's acting the same way. Ran them all the way back to WM5 (stock), WM6, (stock), WM6.1 .. same thing... I did notice that as I powered them off (yes power button would still work) that the top bar would flash by for a sec and it was showing SIM LOCK, before it powered down. So I'm wondering if it's waiting for me to enter (yes tried to enter the code to the frozen screen, don't know what other buttons to push).
The same sim DID do the unlock for a pair of G1's that I'm gonna sell, and then just for giggles I went ahead and activated the ATT GoPhone that it came with successfully. Still the same thing when I tried to do the unlock.
I'm at my wits end... I'll just have to sell them with the unlock code with them or something.. I'm still wondering if it's the ATT 3G sim that the Dash dosen't like... need to dig about and find and old one or something.
hi giuys like the header says i would like to sim lock my phone... what i mean is that i want my phone to work only with my sim... i've tried to search on the forum for it but with no results... can you help me???
thanks in advance
hi. first of all, if your phone is sim locked, it not gonna work only with your sim but with every sim card of your network ( vodafone in your case); secondly i've never heard about something or somehow to sim-lock again a phone!!! ask Olinex, may be he knows!!! good luck
i didn't mean the general sim-lock like the branded phones have i mean maybe a lite app that runs when you start the phone and blocks you from using the phone if there is no sim or it isn'tt the sim you've previously registered...
aahhh okayyyy, you mean something like the nokia's phone locking if the sim is changed! i've understood now! i was looking for it me too but i've never found a bit! we'll stay in touch, if i find something intresting i'll tell you ciao

I got what you need but it is shareware [you have to pay for it].
It is for Wm 5 but i think that it will support higher too.
Did you search on google?
Here is the link: [click].
I searched for the "cra**ed" version but all links are dead or fake.
hi thanks for the reply guys
if you can use password protection why bother such thing!!!
okay, password may be broken by software, but same thing for any kind of security also.
anyway, a program can be written such as:
small memory residence program which will check the sim nr. in every few min.
if not matched, will enter into Airport Mode + screen lock
keep checking every few min.
if it matched the nr. stored before (encrypted) will unlock airport mode+screen
or the program will only trigger at the stratup or sim change
i seem to have this problem whereby when my phone starts up with a sim card inserted, the phone will boot into lockscreen for 1s then it'll start to dim into darkness and automatically reboot
this behaviour doesn't happen when the sim card is taken out
i've tried to reflash the firmware but the problem still persists, i have no idea whats wrong and this phone just came back to me yesterday from SE repair center where they changed the motherboard!
any idea what should i do?
i'm on 2.3.4 rooted
I assume you've tried another sim card. Just send it back other wise.
Sent from my LT15i using XDA App
i put in another sim card, it works for maybe 30 minutes then same problem
so i put in yet another sim card, worked for 1hr then same problem
put in the 1st sim again, immediately problem occurs
seems like the phone remembers the sim cards that were slotted in, or it damages the sim cards in some way but the sim cards work with other phones so i'm at a blur
decided to send the phone in for servicing again, hopefully the next set wouldn't cause any problems anymore
i've had quite a few android devices and have been flashing winmo phones for years, but this is the 1st time ever i've had to send a phone in to repair!
I have an unrooted, purely stock GT-N5100.
I haven't put in the microSIM in its slot ever. I use it in airplane mode , only with Wi-Fi. But I have a problem where sometimes, it randomly detects that I have put in a SIM card( and it leaves me no option but to restart it). Then sometimes after detecting that, it detects that I have removed the SIM card and I again need to restart it. This gets really annoying and this time, it oscillated between the two cases as can be seen in the video below.

Now I don't have a SIM in the microSIM size, so I am Unable to really check by putting in a SIM card, there is nothing in the SIM slot, I checked by opening the flap.
Should I rush to the Samsung Service center to get it fixed? Any other Suggestions to fix it?

Weird thing happened to my phone..
from yesterday morning my sim 1 didnt detect,i thought my sim 1 hardware gone,since i tested with 5sims,2 are carrier micro sim,..
after 1day..i cant take that is hardware problem[ it just gone in overnight,dint drop,didnt shake since i slept] and opened the calc and tested the sim 1 ,it says test shows error,,.so i just tested my luck by downloading last update nd flashing...thank GOD...my sim 1 now works...
i seen some other also had this and asked replacement..thats y sharing this..
in future you may have this,so first try to flash stock,then goto service center
my both sim slot are loosey and sometime the sim card just slide out of it designated position and no sim detected occurred. it happen when i open my case and did not align the card properly. could this be the same issue you are facing?
