Sim Vs Usim on Kaiser

Hi Guys,
My Kaiser arriving tomoz to replace aging m3100 (Orange TTyN), but as I share a business contract and need the Kaiser, we have needed to switch Sims on our phones, hence I only have a none-3g sim for my kaiser.
Question is thus;
Do I need it to be a 3G sim to use HSPDA? I understand HSPDA is 3g 1.5 or something, but wanted to clarify the issue.
If no good, how can I get a 3g sim into the phone but retain the number? Orange don't want to play ball, as I have suggested they can 'upgrade' the Sim with new code etc.? ( yes, a little knowledge is a very dangerous thing.. )
Any help and advice would be much appreciated..
Cheers

I phoned orange they sent new 3G sim two days ago though mine was on PAYG.
My old sim only got GPRS.
The new sim has a number to phone to register it. Follow the prompts...The rep will ask you for the new sim card number and apply it to your phone.
After you put the new sim card in you'll get a text telling you to switch the phone off then on... then presto HSDPA
Make sure you specify that you want a 3G sim card else they'll try and send you a normal one

Yeah I dont follow at all...
Orange are anal about sim's with devices. You should register the new sim you get with your device and they will change it to your old number within a few hours.

I'm running a Kaiser on T-Mobile and I get HSPDA whenever its available. I don't have 3G service so I think you should get the max Data connection available when its available.

Thanks for tips Guys !
As I have found on other parts of these forums, plenty of great advice given quickly ! Cheers
Just to get this straight, as its a business phone and I cant screw it or lose my number...
Problem is, as I swapped phones with my Bro who I work with, there is already a phone using the number provided on the new sim... So I cant register the new sim.
Orange are ANAL about their sims, and ANAL about removing TouchFlo (Grrr) bunch of ANAL freaks if you ask me..
Anyhoo,
Could I register the sim, and give MY number, and they will register to that number? Orange Bod says there is NOTHING that can be done, NO WY to solve the situation, but you guys are so much smarter than them...
Keep it coming ! Is it poss. to re-code the sim to 3g using a simcard reader? should I find out where Head orange guy lives and shake him warmly by the throat?

dual sim

hello all. this question may be stupid, but esentially for me: can i made 2 sim cards to work both on my diamond in the same time? I mean to can receive a call on the orange sim card and to receive also to vodafone sim card without to be need to change the sims, or to change the operator? to function both.

I guess there are a couple of mobiles (with two antennas) able to do that (seen one, can't remember the brand and model). With only one antenna what you can do is clone both SIM cards into just one and with a reboot you have the option of starting up with one network or the other (I reckon you can have more than 2). I don't know if it's possible with current SIM cards and can't remember the hardware and software needed to do that.
Oh.. And it's illegal The best option is to have more than one mobile

yes i know about that devices that have 2 antenna's. i was wondering if i can do it on diamond. i know also about that method with 2 sim and after restart to choose the network operator. thx for the answer.

Sim lock?

Hi guys,
Im trying to use a different sim in my orange (uk) phone. But the different sim is not recognised and no codes are asked for?
Entering *#7465625# I find that all of my locks are off, so does this mean im sim locked?
Ive been googling for ages but im still not 100% sure as most threads for removing sim lock state make sure network lock is on.
Sorry if this is a dumb thread but any help would be appreciated.

try to install otherfilmware with csc+code+pda and check with other sim,hope it will work

My current sytem is
PDA I9000XXJPY
CSC I9000OXAJPY
Sorry im still fairly new to this, do you mean custom firmware? or other standard?
Thanks again
fos

Dont apply new firmware just for a non working sim .
What network you on and did you enter the details of that network manually .
network details are on the networks web site .

My home network is orange UK and the network settings were set up automatically.
When I put the New sim in (cable and wireless) I get an icon near the battery showing no sim inserted but all locks are off?

Duff sim card ??? first question .
jje

I tried it on a friends phone and it seemed to recognise it ok (we didnt try to phone out or txt tho).
Ive had trouble connecting to gmail and the market, so have done a factory reset and will try the sim card again tonight and post results.
thanks
Fos

It may be an old type sim you are using that is not recognised by the phone. Can you get a new one? I must admit I have not heard of Cable and Wireless having a UK network. Live n learn eh.

Sorry for the delay in posting.
Tehpriest im not currently in the Uk at the moment, so I bought the C & W as it gives better rates than roaming with orange
The new sim card works fine in a friends HTC but still is not recognised by my galaxys.
Looking closely at the sim, the gold contact is physically larger than the orange sim (sim card size is still the same tho), could this be the reason?
seems strange as my friends original sim is the the same dimensions as my orange yet he can use the C & W.

Any ideas anyone?

X8 SIM-Card Problem

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

NOTE 5 not recognizing SIM card anymore

so yesterday i swapped SIM cards from iphone 6s and note 5 but the issue is that i'm idiot , because i have inserted the iphone 6s sim tray in the note 5 by mistake :crying: :crying:
then i have gently removed the iphone 6s tray from the note 5 and everything was fine and didn't look like i broke something in the sim card reader , but after inserting the right tray with the sim , my note 5 didn't recognize it , that moment i knew my life turned upside down and became like hell ! , i've been searching in the last 2 days for a solution but i didn't find any tutorial on youtube , i didn't even find sim card reader for sale !!! , i don't even think that i can replace the sim card reader with a new one even if i had the chance to get a new sim card reader because the note 5 sim card reader isn't similar to the other sim card readers
please help meeeeeee , i'm confused i can't even sleep i keep thinking about what would happen if this problem stays for ever ! AND i didn't forget that i'm stupid
thank you

Hi,
I'm Daniel from Brazil,
I've read your history and I'm afraid passing by the same problem,
Early days I update my note 5 for 6.0.1 Indian ROm from SamMobile, and my phone didn't conect on operator network any more, just sinalize Emergency Call Only, So, I thought this was a problem with my new Rom and Since saturday try 12 Rom/s 2 customs and 10 differents between 5.1..1 and 6.0.1.
And them I finally read your topic and came to my mind that before update I change Sim Card from my Note 5 and put by the wrong side the Sim Tray.
I'm thinking that my Sim Card Reader can be broke.
I will sinalize this problem for the TI support tha is analyzing my phone.
Thanks for this topic and i try to see if this can be fixed.
I could say to will try to find a person that fix MotherBoards and can make a laser welding.
In Brazil there is sim tray note 5 to sell:

i just was wondering if i can install dual sim card reader in my note 5 , knowing that it came with 1 sim card reader exactly like your's
and by the way i don't know what makes the single sim reader more expensive than the dual sim reader ! ,
on ebay:
single sim reader reaches 17$
dual sim reader reaches 5$ with free shipping !
what an awkward logic .....
