Hey,
I had to cut my SIM Card so it fits into a Micro SIM Slot and while I used another phone I put my SIM Adapter in my SGS so I won't lose it.
Well when I wanted to put the card back in the Adapter I had to (obviously) pull out the Adapter first: But it stucked in there. So I had to add some pressure and I finally got it.
But now my phone won't recognize and SIM Card anymore. I've no Idea what exactly could be/is damaged.
Does anyone had the same problem and solved it?
Oh and if there's a nice dude with a good camera: Could someone make a picture of the SIM Card Slot so I can see how it should look? :/
Disassemble Videos showed me that I can't really get under the "holder"?
Thanks in advance
PS: Sorry I'm not a native english speaker
AW: [Q] I damaged my SIM Slot, help
No one an idea? Or a photo? :/
/e Seems like I can buy a new Adapter for 9€ .. better than nothing
U could try a normal sim to see if it's read correctly, u should get a sense of what's wrong.

Thanks for your response. I already tried that with 2 other (normal) sim cards and it didn't work.

umm your service is disconnected?????
no,its not reading the card slot at all
This may be a stupid question- is the SIM card in the proper way? When did this start? What changed? Did you drop the phone?

When I first bought my Tilt used, I had the same problem. I had to stick a tiny part of a post-it to the back of my SIM and shove it in there. It's like my SIM wasn't thick enough.
The best way - to try with another SIM (maybe your friends have a mobile-phone )
Sometimes the old SIMs don't want to work with modern devices....
well heres my 2 cents as i just fixed it, my issue at first i thought it was the sim slot (replaced...) then found out the ribbon was damaged a crack occured, after another week of waiting for a package (today) i replaced it and now its running fine
Same here
My Sim was no longer available.
Kaiser had "sim card is missing", but the sim was in there.
I disassebled it and found that the main flex cable was damaged.
Now I'm waiting for replacement.
So, When the phone shows up "sim missing" it's an flex cable matter not the sim card flex or the sim card unit.
same problem here
I'm having the same problem here. thought that it was the flex cable of the sim, but when I disassambled the Kaiser I found out that the main cable was slightly scrached from a corner, and the sim's cable was there pluged well... I'm trying to fix it..gonna post the result for "sim card failure"...
Hi Everyone,
I have one big problem, when I insert my PlusGSM sim-card my X8 don't recognise it, but when I insert PLAY or T-Mobile sim they both are recognised and connecting to network. PlusGSM sim is working when I insert it to my SE C902, how can it be?
I will add, card was working hour ago, but stopped working after my X8 drop and battery fall out from phone -_-
I'm using nAa-kernel v06b, and MiniCM7-2.1.5.
Please for fast response, because I haven't access to my contacts
ouch! maybe u burn your sim card

As a temporary solution, you should insert your SIM in another phone to backup your contacts, at least to know if your sim is still works.
Edit: Oh, this's a old thread!
@bogysha
probably no, because it works on other phone.
Just verify if all the "Sim connecting pins" are okay and there isn't any damaged. Because every sim has the Chip in different positions (for me it is) and some doesn't fill all the pins, i think.
@nhoc_maruko9x
not that old xD
Well I bought Nexus 5. Because of that I had to get a Micro SIM card to fit in it.
I bought another Micro -to- Normal SIM adapter. Like an external Jacket so that I can use the same SIM in my SGS Advance.
Now, because of the SIM holder design, the terminals might have gotten a little worn out due to inserting and removing the SIM card.
But What I dont understand is, it was working fine until suddenly my SGS Advance stopped recognising my SIM card.
Ok.
So I tried other SIM cards. Still the same result. Mind you, the phone was recognising the SIM Card(s) before it was stopped recognising.
Cause for it :
1.physical damage
well I dont think so cause I dont see if there are any terminals missing or something out of place or anything that has fallen off.
2.Software issue.
Please help me. And yeah Phones outta warranty period running 2.3.6 & yeah thats about it. Please see image below. Top notification bar just right of the mid line, symbol that no SIM card is inserted.
I just got a Moto X, and put a nano sim card in the phone. It was quite easy to get the tray out, and put the SIM card into the tray and back into the phone. However, now I can't get the tray (along with the SIM card) out again. I really need to get the SIM card out of the phone. Can anyone please help me? I've already tried using the SIM card eject tool and sliding paper above and under the tray. I've also attempted to jiggle the tray, but cannot, as it will not come out at all.
Can anyone suggest some advice for me? I would be willing to go to a store to get this fixed, but that would have to wait until the end of the day, it would be really helpful to get the card out now.
Better go to a store than damaging the slot. :/

Hello, I recently bought the S5 mini on Amazon. Apparently the device is from Brazil.
It does work on my NY network only issue I am having is that the micro SIM card (not memory card, actual network provider card) I am using gets lost in the slot, while the regular size one doesnt even fit. Is there anything in the middle?
The micro actually works but to get it out I need tweezers and a lot of patience .... Which makes me wonder if that's the correct size to begin with?
Help please?
Thanks
Isn't your nano sim?
This is how my cards look like:
