Maybe bad connection on your sim card?
Try removing the SIM card and put it back in, and then boot the phone.

done that, doesn't help
Im getting hte same issue. The 4.0.2 update came through, rebooted the phone. SIM not found, press to reboot....
Rebooted, SIM still not working. remove SIM and replace. Still not working. replaced with another SIM. Still not working.
Was working fine prior to the 4.0.2 update. This is on a 1 month old phone that has never been rooted. It is still as stock as it comes out of the box... And i want to test it more before i start boxing it up to send it back...
Have you tried leaving the battery out for a bit, then trying powering it up again?
Here is where it gets weird. I tried 2 other sim cards as well as my own. none of them worked. put my sim card back in and tried again, still not working. turned it off over night. went to Vodafone and asked if i could try a new SIM in the phone. still not working. put my TPG/Optus sim in and it started working. got a new SIM from Voda, transfered all the account info to the new card, waited an hour and tried it again and now it works :/
Dont know what caused it to stop working and dont know what caused it to start working again :/ im going to throw the word "Vodafone" in there as the cause because people will just nod their head and say... "yep, that was probably it..."
I have the same issue with AT&T....the phone does recognize the SIM, APN and all...but no signal. Just once in a while it gets registered on teh network, but for one minute or so...I don't know what to do
Same issue here, after a reboot my phone does not recognize my sim at all. no signal at all. tried a different sim, nothing, bought a new sim but nothing again, returned to stock, everything, but still nothing....no remedy yet....

I've had my Desire since it came out but a problem has just come up: the phone will shut down whenever the SIM card is inserted. Without it it'll work fine, but if i put it in, when it boots, as soon as it tries to connect to the network it'll shut down. I've tried a different SIM card and the problem is the same.
This started by using MIUI but i've clean installed a CM7 based rom and the problem is still there.
My phone is out of warranty so taking it in is not worth it.
Thanks
Did you try to flash a new radio.img?
No i havn't, i, rather stupidly, hadn't thought of that..... i guess i thought that when i flashed a new rom i'd get a new radio!
When you run RUU you get a new radio, but ordinary custom roms don't have that option.
I flashed the latest radio and the problem remains the same.........:crying:
Any other ideas?!
Then it's probably a hardware issue. You can try to disassemble it and try to fix connectors.
I'm now completly los now; the phone switches off with 3 different sim cards but not witha forth!!! I'll have the SIM card replaced even though it does work fine in my HTC ChaChaCha........
Very strange!
Thanks for your help anyway, it's obviously got to do with the card and not the phone so i guess the solutions been found!!
I have had the same problem, until yesterday. I'm running a cooked ICS ROM, and the issue has gone as soon as I have switched to a newer RIL. So don't take it for granted that it's a hardware issue or SIM-related. Hope this helps.
For everyone who have this problem
if it still interests you, I have a simple solution that works for everyone

help us
My help
you just have to activate the pin code on security and location setting
but the SIM card must be inserted to activate the pin code
If you never activate the pin code, then the default code is usually 0000
if the phone is turned off before you have to get to the temp setting reply me and i'll tell u what to do
If it worked for u don't forget to hit thanks
Hello all first post here. I googled and searched this issue but came up empty.
I recently rooted my ATT Galaxy S3. using the Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit [SNAPDRAGON EDITION]. The root went fine and the phone was working great for a couple hours after the root. I restarted my phone one time and received an error stating "No Sim". I turned off the phone, pulled the battery, and ejected and reseated the SIM, turned the phone back on and got the same message. I have tried rebooting the phone numerous times and also did a factory reset. The phone displays the correct IMEI under the settings menu so that does not appear to be the issue.
I know the verizon S3's had some no SIM issues but it does not appear the ATT phones suffered from this. I also do not have another SIM to switch out but will be going to the ATT store tomorrow to switch SIMs to see if that is the issue.
Anyone have an tricks to try to see if I can get this working this evening?
Thanks
I've seen weirder things in the world of technology but i highly doubt the rooting had anything to do with the SIM failure, sounds like an unfortunate coincidence. Is this by chance a new SIM? Which root procedure did you use for curiosities sake?
Thanks for the reply!
The SIM is roughly 4 weeks old. I used the ALLINONE ( flash insecure boot, CWM, root phone, Install busybox) option in the toolkit.
I just hope the SIM went bad and not the phone its self.
That would be my guess, although i rooted manually the toolkit you used has all the same software/firmwares/kernels etc (at the time it was last compiled atleast)...it just automates the process. My guess would be for whatever reason the SIM just took a crap, AT&T should have you up and running on a new SIM in a few minutes assuming that is the case. Might recommend you do a full backup in recovery and flash back to full stock just in case there is some sort of hardware failure so they don't try to blame you for unofficial software. I don't advise people to try to get away with a free fix for something that is their fault, but in this case i seriously doubt it was anything user inflicted.
Actually I experienced a similar problem.
I'm using a Rogers SGH-I747M but had switched to the Bell ROM to try out the Jellybean OTA which I rooted. Worked fine for weeks, then out of the blue it started randomly saying my SIM card had been removed and forced me to reboot (which took a LOT longer than usual).
Got fed up and am back on stock rooted ROM and the issue is gone. Try reflashing stock and see if the problem continues.

Sorry about posting in the wrong spot.
I tried a co-workers SIM this morning and the phone still would not read it, so it appears the phone has gone bad.

I had this problem with my older S1 i9000.. the issue, wrong modem! not sure if it is the same problem here, but 100% had a very similar problem with flashing the wrong modem.
Flashing your carriers modem should fix it or go back to stock.
I flashed everything back to stock this morning and it was still having the issue.
I went to the ATT store and the CS rep tried a new SIM and lo and behold it worked like a champ. Not sure why my co-workers SIM did not work but all is good now!
My phone is not detecting SIM card. It all happened suddenly. Phone was working till a minute before. Suddenly got a notification
NO SIM CARD EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY
I did factory reset, Went back to stock OS from VANIR ROM
Even got a new SIM card. Nothing seems to be working.
Please help me in fixing this.

1. Try changing radio.
2. Get a new phone. It seems to me that something broke in hardware.

Thanks for the reply
what do you mean by change radio???
Hi there guys,
As it turns out I was this morning at class, when all of a sudden my phone gave a signal of "No service", so the data internet wouldn't work. I didn't pay too much heed to it until I got back home and my phone wasn't working yet. It happens to be my phone, it's deconfigured. It won't recognize any SIM card.
I tried resetting it, upgrading its firmware... but nothing changed. I've thought of installing a custom ROM... I might screw my phone up even more, tho. I don't have any other alternative
Right now I'm trying a higher version... B708 (Mine was B512)
All suggestions are welcome... thank you.
hi check your imei num. and baseband....i have same issue....imei null.......
Hello guys I've had this phone for a week. Now since it is a hand me down phone i cannot give you guys much details.
The phone is still unrooted, meaning to say there is no custom rom flashed here. When i got this phone it had some few issues like when you boot it up, apps will start giving you popup notice so I fixed it by factory reset and the next issue I've noticed was the systemui crashing but it turned out that the google app is the problem.
I've tried using different sim cards that are apprently working but there's still no luck. The owner that gave it to me said that everything here was fine.
I had to change the batteries since it's bloated. The sd card seems to be working fine. The only problem is the sim card reader. Not sure it it's a firmware or a hardware problem. I need advices. Thank you in advance.
