Everyday at one random point of the day it shows a message saying
"Sim card removed. Reboot the phone" I don't know why this is happening... I don't think it's a rom issue cause I had this in cognition and assonance(currently used)..

Most likely you just need a new sim card. Sometimes if they mishandled when taking them in or out it could damage the contacts.
I've seen a few cases where phones belonged to people who literally smoked and held the phone with the same hand at the same time had similar issues. There could be a great deal of tar on the card.
Other than that I would just check the internals and see if anything could be blocking a good.connection.

Can I buy a new similar card wihtout having to change my number? And I'm running the assonance rom and on the status bar it has h instead of 3g is that also caused by the sim card?

The sim card just let's you connect.to the network. Your phone number would be the same as your previous one.
If you ate still under warranty, flash back to stock before you take it uptown to the store and have them put a new sim in as they may notice you have a custom rom and may make note.of it.

Just go to the AT&T store, tell them you lost your phone and need a new sim card to use on a spare phone. Most of the time it's free.
Ok thanks I'll try it out as quick as possible cause my phone is like not working now..

Did you flash a new rom on your phone with the SIM card installed in the phone?
Just tell them that you need your SIM replaced because this one is acting up. They shouldn't have a problem with that. I had mine replaced recently - there was no charge for it as well as there shouldn't be since they're a dime a dozen.

Just tell them urs is acting up, and u need a new one. They'll replace it free of cost.
I got a new sim card but that wasn't the problem... it seems that the rom assonance was a problem.. I switched over to axura and it works fine now

I previously had the LTE connection problem, but now it escalated to even HSPA! It was working previously, but my carrier signal couldn't be detected when I'm indoors. I removed the sim and placed in another phone but the signal was full. Anyone having the same dilemma? I tried to reset the phone to no avail. Thanks

Did you flashed another firmware or still on stock with locked bootloader?
If so repair the phone with pc companion.

Still with stock everything. I will try to repair it in a while as I am using an Apple computer. Thanks!

Hi. My brother's note is not rooted and he didn't do anything in it. Today he changed his sim card and when he started up his phone, he cant make any calls or sms. Network signal changes every second from having network to blocked icon. Both sim cards belong to the same network company. He changed back to his old sim card and showed the same. Warranty is out and im ready to fix it if it needs any firmware changes or rooting but he doesnt want to do any of that. I will do it if there is no other solutions.
Thanks

What connectors?

Does your carrier have Sim lock. Is it a carrier specific device.
the simcard slot connectors.

Sim will work then just randomly stop. Ejecting it and putting back in solves it temporarily but it keeps occurring. I am using straight talk with a micro sim i cut down. It fits in fine and works at first then just stops. Any ideas? I just got the phone off eBay. Thanks any help is appreciated.

I cut my AT&T sim and this was happening as well. I went to get an official nano sim, no problems.
Can you even get official straight talk nano Sims?

Lately my phone is randomly saying : SIM card removed please restart! Then I have to take out the sim and clean it and then it works again for a while! Is my SIM card messed up or does my phone have a HW failure?
Sent from my C5303 using xda app-developers app
most of the time is it a simcard problem. So by contacting your operator and asking for a new one you will be able to fix this
@mrjraider I always have 1 signal bar too :/ still think its the sim?
