SIM CARD PROBLEM helP

hello my phone sim card problem I have htc toch daimon does not accept sim card but the problem continues, I unlock sim
My English less
What have you done?
Did you buy the device with this issue, or was it working OK? If it was OK when you bought it, what has happened since? Has it stopped working since you tried to SIM unlock your device?
if you mean, how can you SIM unlock your HTC Diamond then look at the folliwing link on the Diamond WIKI:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_SIMUnlock
some older sim cards are not compatible with htc devices
I would request the isp for a new sim card here they send them
free of charge as they would like to keep their customers

Invalid Sim error on T-Mobile HD7 with Tmobile Sim card

Hey guys
I have a tmobile hd 7 here
it had an atnt sim card, and worked, the phone was unlocked
as soon as i put an active tmobile card it gave the invalid sim error.
So i researched and decided to replace the sim tray.
Got the new sim tray over a month later and the problem didn't go away.
Did a factory reset, still nothing.
This is a tmobile phone, so any idea why this is happening?

Maybe it's your sim card problem.

That was the first thing I tried. I wouldn't have ordered a new SIM tray without testing that first...

broken sim card slot - can it be fixed?

Hi,
I put a nano sim adapter into my brand new razr I, and when I removed it, it got caught on 2 of the pins, and pulled them out the sim card slot. The phone will no longer read a sim card.
I also imported my phone overseas (South Africa) and bought it off ebay.
1) Is there a way to get this phone fixed? They don't sell the Razr I in my country (hence why I needed to import it). Is there maybe a similar phone that shares a sim card holder?
2) Can just the sim card slot be replaced or does a whole part of the phone need replacing?
Thanks for the help!
same problem
hi1 i have the same problem, you can fix you phone? how you do ?
Hi guys.
It ´s highly possible, that the SIM slot is similar or identic to other phones slots. So If you find some good mobile phone service, They really can look at it and maybe change for new one for lets say from $20 to $50 including work... You just have to try....

[Q] Does not recognise sim card

I was overseas travelling and used some different sim cards no problem. But on return, I put my original sim card in, and the xperia z says "sim card inserted, restarting" and restarts, only to display the "no sim card" icon. I've tried a lot of things, and got a new sim card from my carrier because I thought that one might have been broke because I didn't use it in a while, but the new one has the same problem.
I really hope it's not a hardware issue, the phone is older than 1yr, and I didn't buy it in this country. I suspect that it might not be, since it was working fine until I swapped sim cards. Could this be a firmware issue? Any suggestions?
[Edit] It might be worth mentioning that I did a firmware upgrade while overseas without my original sim in.

[Q] My HTC One doesn't see my sim! Help!

Hello everyone,
Yesterday I bought a secondhand HTC One (M7) because my old HOX was giving me headaches..
In all my enthousiasm i have forgotten my one and only sim card tool at the sellers house.
When I got home I immediately wanted to put my sim into my new M7 and tried to open the sim with the back of a needle.
This went wrong on my old One X (I was too deep in the phone with my needle).
I tried it with a paperclip and that worked perfectly. I'm getting to my point now.
When I inserted my Vodafone NL sim into the M7, the phone says no sim. So it appears it doesn't recognize the sim.
The phone came from another provider, so I'm not sure whether its simlock free or not..
When I put the sim back in my One X there was no problem at all, the phone recognizes the sim immediately and works perfectly fine..
So I tried putting 2-5 layers of tape on the back of the sim (yes, I tried 2,3,4 and 5 layers.)
I also performed a factory reset. But nothing seems to be working.... ((((
Is this a hardware failure or can we solve this?!?
BTW I am running stock Sense 6 Android 4.4.2
