Having Trouble Removing Micro Sim Card - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hi!
I am having trouble removing the micro sim card from the Samsung GSIII phone. I would appreciate it if somebody could provide suggestions for removing it. Thanks!

pushing it in until it clicks and jumps out, isnt working ?

Push it in for it to come out.

I stop at a Sprint store today, one of the rep told me it works, all it need is a activated sim to put it in and ready to go.

I got my GN2 on Friday. I can confirm there is NO SIM slot. I am very sure of this, the slot is missing as compared to the UK version.
I'm bummed about this too. From what I hear it has an embedded SIM...the manual seems to indicate GSM capabilities outside the US, but through Sprint's International roaming program.
Picked mine up yesterday and so far I'm liking it....mostly re -applying apps setting up but seems pretty good

I'm not sure what you are asking? It's easy to put an SD card in the phone. Just open up the back and put it in. what am I missing in your question?

What I meant is make the internal 10 GB show up as external and make the external show up as internal. I have a lot of games and 10 GB is not enough.

Yes, theres a mod for that in the n7100 or s3 section. Cant remember which.

Not too sure if it's 100% stable right now though....? I would love to have a 100% workable solution but I just don't want the bugs of the current method...
whats the link?

Did the Tmobile employee break my sim tray

My sim card doesn't pop out when pushing forward on the card, so doesn't have that spring to it. I noticed the kid selling me the phone was trying to put the sim card where the memory card goes. I have to use tweezers to remove the card, this can't be right.

Mine doesn't pop out either neither does sd card. I guess that's the way these are built. Not like the note 2

They redid it to make it tighter.less chance of sim or sd moving
TWEAKED 2.5
Yeah, when putting in my sim and sd card, I didn't notice any spring load thing. It just simply slid in.

Its stupid if you ask me . i had to use a push pin to get mine out
That makes no sense, it's difficult to get the sim card out.

This. I never have to take the sim card out of my phone unless I buy a new phone. Since I'm not fortunate enough to buy a new phone every week, then the sim isn't much of a concern.
However, I am a little bummed about the SD card slot not being spring loaded. I do take that out every so often to transfer transfer things to it. Maybe the USB 3.0 connection will help with that. It might make up for the fact that MTP is so slow.

I thought I was the only one! my sim card just wouldn't come out and the only way I could get it out was to use a threading needle to nudge it out slightly, then slightly "stab" and pull it out. I thought I had a defective device and it only bothered me knowing that if I were to ever sell it, I would have a defective feature to list.
I never take my aim out anyways

It was the same thing with the Note 2. A pencil eraser will side it right out.

It's actually for replacing the S-Pen tip, but if it also helps you take out the SIM card then that's just an added bonus

MicroSD

I'll fill this out later after work with more detail but the simple question is how and why the hell does my 64gb keep becoming "damaged" and needing to be reformatted, I've done the .nomedia trick, the fat32 trick SNF everything. IMA keel it.

I know. I only try to buy Samsung brand memory from authorized dealers now. Search Sammys Web site for a list of them all. Only good way of being confident you are getting the real thing. They supposedly buy direct from samsung, so 3rd parties are eliminated.

Get a new SIM from tmobile, it'll be free and it fixed my issue... So far
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Free mobile app
Have a like new sgh-m919 running the kit kat 4.4.2 and it was giving me this same error. I ordered the sim micro attachment AND got a new sim. Problem still persisted after sim replacement. Talked to TMOBILE and they sent new phone (probably refurbished) for 20 bucks. In fact, just got it. Not happy hearing this is the os and not the hardware.

Mines kept doing that too. I had tmobile send me another sim and that did not fix. They had to send me another S4. It has not done it since. Now I am having an issue with apps working after doing a recovery.
