So im not new to these phones but this is proly my frist post on here. Ive been able to master flashing and all that other stuff, but for some reason, after i connected my tilt to a buddies laptop, my phone said no sim. and ever since that sync it won't read my sim card. ive tried the paper trick, soft/hard resets/ flashing a new rom onto it.. ect.. and this getting that same insert sim. should i just be done with it and say its something internally wrong with it?
Tried another sim?
going today to get another one, but its a new sim, maybe 2 months old

Can't figure out why. It's unlocked and I just took it back to factory settings.
For some reason it just stopped recognizing my SIM. Anything I can try? I would hate to assume it's broken.
Assuming you've searched the forum...
does the sim work on other phones? does another sim work in your kaiser or it doesn't recognize ANY sim?
have you tried cleaning the sim bay? (i dunno whats the recommended way to clean that area or even if cleaning it will make any difference)
and one more time...search this forum...i remember seeing quite a few threads about sims not getting recognized all of a sudden
My SIM works in other phones, but nothing works in this one.
I did search, but only found issues with the phone not reading it after flashing to a cooked ROM, not official ones. It didn't recognize it before or after I flashed to back to factory.
** I saw where apparently tmobile sims require a little more pressure, but that hasn't worked.
I've tried three different SIMS, one on tmo and one on att
So no one else?
similar issue !!
similar issue with gene(HTC 3400i)....
sending it for a replace tomorrow, but i will be thankful if somebody can advise a solution for this issue.
Have a look at this thread for a few ideas:

try cleaning your sim card with medical alcohol it help in some cases
ask for sim replacement from your network provided (from experience and reading - kiaser is very sensitive to sims)
Someone posted about this last month and his solution solved my problem.
Slide a piece of paper between the top of the SIM card and the top metal clip to push it down harder onto the contacts.
In my case some SIMs would not work, but this has cured it.
Hey guys...I sold my Tilt and they buyer said when they inserted their SIM it wouldn't recognize it. I flashed the newest Hyperdragon ROM before I shipped the device, and everything seemed to be working fine. The buyer went to ATT store where they tried other SIM cards, but none worked in the Tilt.
It worked fine with my SIM, which I'm using now in my Fuze. Any ideas what would be causing this? Thanks
i have the same problem too. i'm new to this kaiser/tytnII.
i bought it used from a guy. at first i was able to use my simcard on it. But after using it for 2-3 days, the phone failed to detect my simcard.
i tried with other simcards and it worked fine.
* i think the previous owner flashed with hyperdragonIII ROM, when it boots it says hyperdragon III omnia
Had the same problem. I take my sim card out of my blackberry and put it into my tilt and it recognizes nothing. I take tthe sim out of the tilt back into the Blackberry and works perfectly. I flashed Hyperdragon III ralpheal and blackstone. I finally went back to an at&t based one. Originally when I had dutty's rom or Schapp the sim worked fine
i have just recently bought a unlocked tilt (i don't think it was ever flashed before because the seller didn't know whats flashing)
however, at first, it couldn't read my sim card at all even though my sim works perfectly on my wing. so i took it to a cellphone place across the street and their sim card worked on the tilt, in the end, i just had to pay an extra 20 bucks to get a new SIM card. it is also a better idea to flash without the sim card in the phone!

True, I always notice better reslults flashing without SIM and microSD intalled.
I don't know what happened, but the buyer emailed me and said they went to another ATT store and got it working. I'll see if I can find out what the ATT rep did to make it work...
Hello all, I know it might sound weird or impossible, but Im researching if there is a way for me to use multiple sim cards with the G1.
I have a rooted AND unlocked phone, I was wondering if I cound use BOTH T-Mobile's and AT&T Sims AT THE SAME TIME on my phone.
Maybe trough a ROM or a hack, or app.
I know the phone has only 1 physical Sim Card slot, Im looking for a way around shutting the phone, take sim out, place the other sim in, and boot up...
Thanks...
Isn't the battery in the way of taking the SIM card out?
They do have dual sim adapters available, but haven't tried it yet. I need to tho since I got 2 phones. This is just one example

I wouldn't even try putting one of those in my phone.
Android does not have a way to run 2 sims in one. Development has been started (by
Google, not by XDA), this is why you would see STK.apk if you look in /system/app but I wouldn't hold my breath for that one, in short... no, you can't run dual simcard set-up. Sorry.
I'm new here. Ive been searching forums but i haven't been able to find what i'm looking for. My G1 got wet and I dried it out. After about a week of it not turning on, It finally came on today. I inserted my Sim card but the phone would not recognize it. I saw some corrosion on the Sim card contacts and cleaned it. But it still wont recognize it. Any possible solutions ? I really want to get into G1 modification software wise but i cant access the phone to try any of the guides. And if i cant get it to recognize the Sim card. Is there a way to remove the Sim card message on the phone ?
Thanks in advance for the advice.
i have torch v1.5 on my phone. when i took my sim out, put a friends in so she could use it, then put mine back in, it didnt recognize my sim. i cant access the APN settings to change those back to rogers, because it says "insert sim card to access network services". can someone please help me with this as i NEED my phone for this weekend.
Cheers
Get a new sim card?
Does your sim card work in a different phone?
That happened to me once. I had to return the phone. I was unable to get it to recognize the sim card.
Different rom didn't help either. Even when I flashed back to stock... no sim. It was a refurb so a new one was easy to get.
Hope you get it worked out.

This happened to me earlier this week. Flash to stock and then back to the rom worked for me

Clean contacts on sim card. Factory reset. If that doesn't work call Rogers for replacement.
No warranty you can replace the simcard slot its a daughter card I think you can order from globalpartsdirect
I have the exact same problem. Again it happened with a warranty phone I just received today. It occurred while trying to root the phone. The SIM card from my wife's iPhone does not work in my phone either. However, my SIM works in her phone. I've tried just about everything I can think of at this point other than running Kies (my next try).
BTW,
Unlike my original Captivate, this one came to me with Froyo already installed.
Under Menu /Settings / About phone /Status /Network what does it say ??
If it says "Unknown" you could try just flashing ur modem again.
I am having the exact same issue with a refurbished phone from AT&T and insurance gone im out of luck unless there is a easy solution.
Hello Everyone, So this is my situation so far:
I have a Samsung Captivate with unbrickable mod added. I flashed with Heindall to 2.2 froyo on linux. The SIM card is not recognized. I have triend 2.1 and 2.2 and 2.3 one clicks in windwons with no luck. I tried to mess with IMEI and elfs file. Results were that the lines i was suppose to change on nv.bin did not exist (no lines in file i was attempting to correct). So at this point and time can i conclude this is absolutely not a software issue? Problem two is if this is a hardware issue and not a software issue. Where do i begin? how much is the price for replacement? How hard is it to do? I have tried flashing with everything off the phone (sim and sd) Im a bit lost at this point. Any help would be great.
Update: Spoke with Adam and he says its not a software issue. I also spoke with the guys who did the soldering and said the issue is not coming from the soldering. I am thinking maybe when the phone was taken apart something got loose? Any thoughts anyone?
