Either 3 problems ; u inserted it in a wrong way, not supported by this mobile or EFS is missing

Inserted correctly as it can only go in one way due to the cut off the simm.
Phone was bought simm free and unlocked to all networks (uk) and my simm works fine in my HTC One X.
What is the last one..???

Did you fully insert the sim card in the slot?
Do you have a microsim that you cut yourself?

The sim card clicks into place... And un clicks out when you remove it.
Yes it was cut to microsim size in a shop for me, but it works perfectly in my HTC One x

i had the same problem had sim card cut to size and it worked for a while then started playing up so went to o2 and they changed my sim to a proper micro sim kept my same no and everything since then no problems so just go to your carrier and they will just change it.

Before u change ur sim open phone and check sim reader connector, maybe its disconnected for some reazon
Note II, Omega v6, MotoMoto theme, Perseus kernel, perfect mix of perfection.

Thanks for the replies guys.. The problem is the cut down sim.. as tired it with another proper micro sim and the phone works fine...! Ordered a replacement sim from my carrier...

SIM Card problems

Got a HTC Inspire on AT&T. A while back, tried to swap sims so my wife could use it. Inserted sim and booted up and said "no sim in phone", but there was. Went to AT&T and they tried 3 different sims and only MY sim card worked. Oh well, Im the only one who can use it.
Skip ahead.
Tried out my wifes Lumia and she used my Atrix. Switched back today cause she wanted her Lumia back. Got a new sim card today, went to start up the Inspire and back to the "No Sim inserted". Essentially the only sim that worked on it is no longer in service.
Do I have a nifty paperweight now?
Does accidently hitting SIM Lock in HBOOT actually do anything? I can't remember if I hit it before.

My ro.cid is CWS_001
Update: Sim card contacts on phone were not properly touching the contacts on the sim card. Bent them back and eveything is fine.

That is the SD card slot. Virgin mobile is CDMA. No sim card

Not sure. It was just luck or you guys didn't notice it was labeled wrong. Look for "HTC one v gsm"

Hacked:Sim Cards!

Just found out that someone finally discovered a way to hack Sim card's. Don't know about you guys but I'm a bit concerned. They say that 5 million phones could be affected. What does you guys think?

The article I read said it was only a certain type of older sim that was vulnerable, and even then the hack didn't work 100% of the time. If you have an older sim and you're worried, go to a Tmo store and tell them you need a new sim. Then you should be fine. If you got your sim recently, you're already good.
Trust me, SIM cards are next to impossible to hack. I have my s3 and I want to use both phones (obviously one will be off while using the other) use the s3 at work so not to break my beloved s4. Use s4 at home and when out. Got a SIM card reader and spent days figuring out how to clove it. Second you touch the SIM card, to figure out it's ki, boom SIM card is locked and destroyed. As was said before only the older ones are able to be touched.

Insert Sim error after inserting the sim

Hello guys.. how are you? I am new on this forum.. I have a problem with my Galaxy s4. When I insert the sim, after that it again demands for the sim. I don't know how to solve this problem. White signals are present near the battery but I am unable to use the service of sms and calls. Any solution related to this problem will be appreciated. Thanks!

The SIM itself could be bad.
Have you tried going to T Mobile and getting a replacement SIM?
Do you know anyone else with a T Mobile phone who could lend you their SIM for 2 minutes to test it? If you get the same results with another SIM the phone is the problem. If you don't, the SIM card itself is the problem.
Are you rooted? What ROM are you running?
If it's the stock unrooted ROM I'd say don't mess with it yourself. Go right to a T Mobile store and tell them to give you a new SIM.
I second that. I would also check to see if the SIM is in backwards. Someone may have just cut the micro SIM wrong as well. Good luck. :thumbup:

I have tried all the other sims, but there is the same error... I think that there is SIm-jacket problem.. It is destroyed as far as I think.. I should go for a change of sim card reader..

Sim card differences

When I got my G3 I swapped out the sim card from my M7. I noticed that the sim card that came with the LG has a different pattern on the bottom of it. Does this make a difference at all?
Is your G3 working with the M7 SIM card? Yes? Why is this thread even created?

Maybe the one that came with the G3 is a Secured Element SIM card and the one with the M7 wasn't.

Thank you for the helpful reply! After further research, that may be the difference, "secured element". I will ask T-mobile on Monday.

I guess because its a valid a question. I firmly believe that some of the shutdown issues could be to do with sim cards.

More than likely the secured SIM. At AT&T we have the same setup. The secured card is required for ISIS.
