I'm currently running slimkat rom, and my Fire Phone won't detect my sim card. My sim card has been cut down from a micro sim, so I suspect that may be the problem. The same sim card works perfectly fine in my Nexus 6 though. I never tried the sim card when the phone was still on Fire OS, so I don't know if I needed to pop it in first before switching to AOSP or what. Anyone ever had any similar issues?
I have the same problem. My phone is currently on latest build of CM-11

The problem was with sim card slot.
FirePhone has the worst sim card slot in any phone I have ever had...
Had the same problem when sim card got cut. Replaced sim card with a propper nano sim and it works!

Yes, it sounds stupid but I had the same problem. SIM card inserted not exactly right. I kept getting SIM card errors until I finally got the SIM card in right.

Hi,
I am from India. I bought this phone last month and I didn't find any problem with my phone till yesterday. I ported my number from Vodafone GSM to Reliance GSM for some better tariffs. When I inserted my SIM card it restarted telling me that "New SIM Card Inserted. Restarting..". But at the next complete boot the phone restarted again telling that "SIM Card Removed. Restarting". I didn't remove the SIM Card or use anything. It is restarting whenever I put that SIM Card. I have tried replacing a duplicate SIM Card and again my phone is doing the same. Seeing many websites, I have tried blowing and sucking the slot so that may remove any dusts. (If any). And tried using the SIM Card in all other phones. It perfectly works on all phones. In my mobile I have tried using all SIM Cards. Everything works in my phone except this Reliance GSM. What to do??
Thanks,
Jagannath Sankar
try using different sim slot
Hello everyone,I'm from china so forgive my English
I have a problem recently and seems there's no other guys have this issue as same as mine.
My device has been unlocked and rooted,and I've flashed a unofficial ROM based on H2OS,and then the most weird thing is my SIM card slot 1 just can not work normally.
The specifically situation is,(I'm pretty sure that both of my SIM cards can work normally and one of them is a brand new one.) when I use the slot 1 only,every time I put the card in and after about 5 hrs then my device just can not read the SIM card,it shows up no SIM card inside,and it can't be solved if I reboot my device. I have to take the SIM card out and put it in again and after about 5 hrs it shows no cards in again like a loop.
And then I have tried my card slot 2, lucky for me it can be used well, none issues.
The third situation is when I use both my SIM cards,after bout 5hrs
It still shows up no cards in, both slot 1&2. And I still have to take the cards out then put them in again or I can just use the slot 2 only to avoid this weird situation.
And now the latest news is I used twrp to root my device again and now it seems everything works fine in slot 1, but I have to wait for 5hrs to make sure of this.
Oh I forgot one thing, once I tried to uninstall xposed but it seems nothing to do with my SIM card slot 1 problem
it shows up again！
No SIM card inside when I use the slot1 only.
it really upset me now and don't know how to solve this problem.
I may have had a similar problem. Sim1 would forget that I had a card installed every hour or so. Sim2 would forget there was a card installed once or twice a day. The only thing that would fix it was reseating the card and rebooting the phone. I suspect a loose Sim card tray and had to RMA my phone.

have you fixed the problem after RMA？I've already bought a new tray and waiting to try
I'm still awaiting my replacement phone. I will let you know when it comes in.
Just an update: the new phone works fine. It's safe to say that my first phone had hardware problems.
Hi. I've got weird problem. Coincidentally, I updated my OP3 to OxygenOS 5.0.1 and at the same day i changed my mobile operator (so my sim card too, of course). Since that day i have got very weird problem. After reboot my phone doesn't recognize my sim card anymore (just like any sim card wouldn't be inside phone). This is happening once in a few reboots. One of the problem solutions is another reboot (But this doesn't always fix my issue). Another solution is to put out sim card nad put it inside phone again. I don't know is it problem of:
1) Phone hardware
2) Update
3) Faulty new sim card
Is anyone having similiar problem after update ?
I changed recently my sim card and i try to change with new card, but it is failed to recognize both sim card and SD card. I tried to replace with old sim, but the result is same. I also tried sim slot 2 still the situation is same. Any suggestion or advise will be appreciated

You should disassemble the phone and see if something has gotten inside the sim area.

Hi Raja, I can't speak to the SD card (because I don't have one in my phone), but I had something similar happen to my sim yesterday, when I ejected the sim carrier.
Before I'd consider taking apart the phone you might consider a shim for the sim. I used a piece of paper under the sim to push it up and make better contact with the "pins" of the sim socket. Working fine now.

Check if the device detects other SIM card, to discard that the SIM trail is working.

I checked other SIM and it is working. I guess I have issue with my SIM then.
But after flashing ROM, I am getting this:
I hope you didn't format all, otherwise, you'll lose your calibration data, IMEI and more. If the device is detecting a different SIM, then your SIM is the issue, you can change the SIM card from your provider, the surface might be scratched.
