Hey guys! Just recently purchased an international variant Note 2 GT-n7100 of craigslist and unfortunately no sim card is reading. Phone has been rooted but no custom rom installed. Flash counter is at 28 when booted into recovery mode. Was curious to know if there is any way of fixing the slot if it is a software error unless it's a hardware than I am SOL. Much appreciated for any comments or ideas of ways to fix this.

i have a question about galaxy nexus . after i rooted my GN , it does not read my sim card. (the phone is verizon lte and i have a t-mobile microsim) i checked the bootloader and the lock state is unlocked.
any ideas of what i should do now>
did you ever find out your answer? i unrooted my vzw galaxy and now it won't read a sim card.
try a normal simcard... not a microsim with an adapter
You have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus, which is carrier locked to Verizon, so your T-Mobile SIM won't work on it. The Verizon Galaxy Nexus is a CDMA phone, T-Mobile is a GSM carrier, so even if you carrier unlocked the phone, it still wouldn't work. And last but certainly not least, Your bootloader may be unlocked, but that doesn't mean that the SIM is unlocked; like I said earlier, that Verizon Galaxy Nexus is carrier locked.

How were you planning on using a CDMA/LTE phone on a network that only does GSM/HSPA? Not quite compatible. Different radios.

If you open up another thread with your specific issue we might be able to help you out but I don't want to derail this thread going into details about a completely different problem.
As for OP, that SIM will not work in any CDMA Galaxy Nexus because it is not a "global" phone. It only supports Verizon Wireless SIM cards.
Hi, I'v just got a Galaxy nexus and after a week with it sittin withiut a sim in the shelf (rewieving Xpera S) I put the SIM-card back in today. But it can't seem to read the simcard, I'v tried resetting, cleaning the simcard and have taken it out and tried again some times now.
The phone is running stock, and is not rooted, and it's a Unlocked GSM device.
Anyone who knows what I should do? Is there anything I could do?

Since you've tried a lot of methods of working with the current SIM, the only other idea which comes to mind would be to perform a factory reset on the galaxy nexus. Perhaps a setting became corrupt along the way. Wiping /data and /cache would be very similar to a factory reset and shouldn't take too long to test if that resolves the issue.
Otherwise, perhaps trying another SIM card in the device before resetting might help confirm if there is an issue with that specific SIM card and the Galaxy Nexus, or if there is an issue with all SIM cards.
Hope that helps add a few more ideas to test!
Galaxy Nexus can't read SIM card
I'm facing a similiar problem but I can't find a solution. Anyone may help me, please?
I bought my GN in France (GSM version) and it was unlocked to SFR, Orange and Bouygues but my carrier is Free Mobile. Trying unlock to the carrier I tried to unlock, root and download a ROM using Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit 1.3 and I probably did some mistake... Every time that I start my mobile it is asked the PIN code (not the carrier code!) but when I type the correct code it always shows the message "incorrect pin code". I've put this SIM card in another Mobile and it works, so the SIM card is not blocked...
I downloaded an oficial version from google and I used Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit 1.3 to download boot.img, recovery.img, system.img and userdata.img in order to try to "restore" the original version. The download apparently was ok, but the problem continues...
The process using the option "flash stock + Unroot" and after "OEM Lock" (in GN Root Toolkit 1.3) works but the message "incorrect pin code" continues.
Any clue to solve this? Thanks a lot for helping!

i replaced the SIMCard/SDCard Module, not the sim card, i used the simcard on my 4s with no problems while the module arrived from ebay
so i take the SIM card is not the problem since it worked correctly for a couple of days on my iphone 4s.
and the SIM card is the microsim from the net10 package
Hi there! I have a samsung galaxy Ace II (GT-I8610), I flashed a rom just now and I have no signal. I dont understand how that would happen. SIM card works in another phone, so its not the sim card thats causing the problem. Maybe the problem is the IMEI. Anyone know how to fix it? Thanks :crying:
Edit: mode mtk engineering is not supported
Same problem, any solution?
As above really. Not really sure if it's a hardware or a software error here. I've read that the sim card readers can be a little fragile but there was no fuss during the removal so I would be surprised if that was the issue. What I'm wondering is if I've missed something when un-rooting my phone.
I was using a custom ROM, all working fine, but I've got a new phone so I decided to unroot my old one to sell on. I flashed my original firmware using the LG Flash Tool. Firmware file is "UK Vodafone 16G D85510A_00.kdz". It all went great as far as I could tell and I started upgrading. The final upgrade was the install of Marshmallow 6.0.
In order to find out if my phone was locked or not I put my Wife's SIM in. Rather than coming up and asking for an unlock code it simply stated that there was no SIM inserted. I thought that was potentially down to the wrong SIM being in but when I tried mine I was met with the same error.
Have I missed something? Did I need to change the baseband or something during the process?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I've had kinda same problem since a couple of weeks ago...eventually SIM card gets read for a short while and get back to that No SIM card inserted state.
It has happened with any ROM as well as OG FW flashed through LG tool.
I haven't tried another SIM on my G3 but my SIM does work on other cell phones.
