Not sure if I broke mine or not. Does the SIM CARD HOLDER have 3 or 4 gold pins on the top.
Keep getting "no sim installed" and I'm not sure if I broke off a PIN or it's another issue.
My SIM slot has 3 gold pins and the furthest one on the left looking at the back of the phone with the camera on top is empty.
Is this correct?
Thanks!
edit: I've tried cleaning the sim contacts and I tried the "paper trick" with no luck. Sim works fine in another device.

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"...
I'm having a really weird problem with my XDA Stellar, worked fine for over a year and then suddenly it said No SIM inserted.
Took the SIM out, tried it in another phone - it worked ok.
Used a different SIM in my Stellar - it worked.
Put the original SIM back in - no sim card inserted!
Contacted o2 for a replacement SIM
Inserted and it worked - hurray, for about 24 hours!
Now its back to saying no SIM inserted and as before the SIM works in other phones and other SIMs work in the Stellar.
Anyone any ideas what's going on!
Try cleaning the sim card contacts with a rubber & also try putting a bit of paper/thin cardboard behind the sim so it is pushed onto the contacts in the sim holder better.
Have some threads on this, bit of a known issue.
Do a search if you want more details.
Ahh, many thanks Mister B, the piece of paper did the trick!
So, just after the first day I got my Xperia T, the SIM tray was broken. I noticed my device having random reboots, then telling me there's no SIM card inserted. It took me some time, but then I noticed that whenever I insert my SIM card and close the tray, it just pops right out again. First I thought that maybe my SIM card was the problem, since I'm using a Nano-SIM with an adapter, so I tried with a regular Micro-SIM instead, but that didn't work either.
Right now my device is in repair and as I can tell from the repair status, they replaced the whole mainboard, which hopefully solved the problem.
Is anyone else having issues like that?
Same here, I had to put several layers of adhesive tape over the microsim to fatten and then lock it into the tray. Nasty, but working.
Same for me, but with 2 layers of post-it, it works.
Bad cut simcard or not perfect adapter is problem. Them simple brake a tray. Then good ones doesn't work either.
Use proper SIM card from first time.
Had the same problem - is it possible to replace only sim tray or is necessary to replace the whole mainboard?
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.
Since yesterday my phone can't detect both my Sim card. It said no Sim inserted. All the while is working fine. Any solution on this? I'm not using sim adapter. I changed already 2 different Sim card and mostly i only got message new sim card inserted Restart to take effect. But after bit completed it still no Sim detected.
The SIM-slots of the Moto G are a very weak part of the phone, I had problems from the very first day to insert the cards correctly. After a short time the one slot doesn´t snap the card into place anymore,the whole construction is not build precise.
I had a few issues in not detecting the SIM card, after all I sticked a piece of thin plastic (or paper) on the top of the SIM´s to be certain that they stay tight at their places and if I´ve found the exact position everything works. So in my case it was a mechanical problem.
