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...

Hi
Just bought a Note II, I was told it was a sim free model, and whilst its accepted my tesco sim card without issue when I log into google play on my pc its brought it up as an O2 Samsung GT-N7100 so the question is have I been sold a O2 handset thats been unlocked? I know it doesnt really matter that much but curious more than anything
Or is it possible tgey have flashed it with a o2 firmware my mistake?

You could try. Borrowing a friends sim and see if you can send a message. If yes, the you are likely sim unlocked.

The N7100 is the international version so it should be sim free.
To test your if your phone is unlocked, insert another sim card other than your "tesco". And if it shows enter sim unlock code, it is locked, otherwise it is unlocked.

Tesco runs on the O2 network. That is why, sometimes Tesco handsets will work with O2 Sim Cards only etc...
Yeah I know, hence why im looking to change o2 data coverage is shocking and I cant use sky go or tvcatchup using 3g as it comes up with some rubbish about saying im abroad...

Im trying to get my simple mobile sim card to work on the T-mobile galaxy s4, i bought the phone straight out of wal-mart. The phone says no sim insert sim card. help would be much appreciated
Make sure you push it all the way in and also make sure your sim card is activated, is not defective, and it might be that the phone isn't for tmobiles network? It sounds dumb but some phones when they're not part of their carrier it says that.. And that's all I kno...

Simple Mobile is supposed to be on T-Mobile's network.

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..

Hi
i have just purchased one of these bad boys in the 4g flavour but my carrier is 3 mobile so data is blocked as my sim is a phone sim and not a data sim
so anyone in UK can you please tell me what network you are on where you get full data calls and text
Much appreciated
Thanks
Lee
Hi Lee. Isn't it just a regular sim? Is it on contract or payg?

I am on three mobile one plan.....I am looking for a payg sim that I can put in my note 8 amd get calls text and data.....I can get calls and text but data is too important to forego
Sent from my GT-N5120 using xda app-developers app
You can put in the phone Sim card with no problems. If you need to manually enter the apn, it's three.co.uk.
Sent from my GT-I9505G using Tapatalk
APN is already set to three.co.uk
I also have a letter H+ with data arrows flashing up and down
Not a huge response to my query, all I am asking is anyone using a note 8.0 as a phone.
I can go with watever network allows phone sim to work in a tablet but it will cost me a top up to find out who will work
Thanks for your help

If it's unlocked, then all sim cards should work. I've used it with a 3 sim and also a virgin mobile sim.
