I recently went to Spain for 5 nights. To avoid breaking/losing my HTC one I transferred my sim to my old sensation to use whilst away. Once home I transferred my SIM back to my HTC one but it is no longer recognising my SIM, just saying emergency calls only yet the sim still works fine in the sensation. The HTC one was working perfectly b4 I went away so I fail to see how it has 'broken' itself whilst sitting on my bedside table for 5 days! The phone knows there is a SIM inserted because when I remove it it says 'please insert SIM'. I have tried a factory reset and even had a replacement sim from ee which have been to no avail. Any ideas on what is wrong? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

I bought a new to me tilt. I am using the same sim card as my last tilt, but every few minute/hours I loose all signal and the phone says that there is no sim. I have checked my sim and its clean. I have checked the phone using my wifes sim and i get the same problem. I have stuck a piece of paper behind the sim as it was inserted into the phone and nothing works. After a soft reset it will normally read the sim but doing this every few hours is crazy. I have ordered all required tools and am prepared to do surgery on the phone by switching sim sockets. I would like to avoid this can someone please help.
Hey All;
Long time lurker on XDA, first time poster. My phone has been behaving badly, and thus far my googling, and searching XDA has not found any answers; so thank you in advance for any info you can provide.
I have and HTC HD7 (Bell Canada network). This morning my phone rebooted a couple of times, and when it "rebooted" the last time it just hung at the HTC boot screen (white screen with green HTC logo). First I took apart the phone and reseated the SD card. That in itself didn't resolve the issue, but I was able to do a factory reset and got the thing booted.
Now suddenly I am not able to get any service on the phone. It is not giving me any indication that there is an issue with the SIM card, and I even tried it with another known working SIM from my girlfriends phone to no avail. Also oddly, I have connected the phone to my PC, and tried to update it. It will update to 7.10, but will not detect that the mango update (7.5?) is available.
Seems very odd that suddenly the phone would now have no service, and I'm thinking that it must be related to the issues I had this morning. Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
Thanks!
Phone acting wonky/no service
About 6 month ago I had an issue with my old Samsung Omnia 2 using Bell Mobility as well...My phone would continually show no service or jump to roaming mode...A call to bell mobility help line and a good rep indicated to me the sim card was recalled due to issues..A quick trip to bell mobilty and a new sim card fixed the issue...Hope this may help you..I now have an HD7 with the same replacement sim card no issues...
Nope... I manged to get reception for a little bit earlier tonight and then it stopped working again. Pretty sure I must have broken something in the antenna when I remounted the SD card. Tried to fix that problem and now the phone doesn't even power on. Great another $300 device down the toilet...
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
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have searched and could not find an answer to my issue. I purchased a T-mobile variant Galaxy S6 it was stuck on the Samsung logo but I only paid $100 so I figured worst case scenario sell it for parts. I managed to get it to boot everything works except cellular service. If I remove the Sim it says "Sim Card Removed" Restart. After restart it goes immediately to No Sim Card . I insert the Sim and it says "Sim card Detected" Restart. After Restart No Sim Card???? Checked IMEI its clean, flashed stock via Odin, pulled what little hair I had left out. Any words of wisdom? Thank you in advance for your time. forgot to add no mobile networks option at all in settings?
Does the SIM card work in another phone?
yes sim card works in other phones
Could be why you paid $100 for it. If your SIM works in another phone then there is a issue with the S6 being able to read your SIM. Have a friend with T-MOBILE? Try their SIM card. You might have a picky SIM.
of coarse it's why I paid a $100 for it, no matter what I can get my money back out of it but I was hoping to be able to fix it. Tried several sim cards same thing it recognizes the card restarts no sim card. I was thinking it might be the sim card reader itself but the fact that there's no Mobile networks in settings makes me think it's software related? Oh well I guess parts on ebay here I come. Anyone need a new display LoL
Same issue
Hi there. I have exactly the same issue with an O2 unlocked S6. I used my Ee sim on it till two weeks ago when suddenly i lost all network capacity (same as you). Previously i flashed an unbranded stock firmware in order to get rid of the o2 logo (may seem stupid but that was what i did). After 2 weeks of normal use with the new rom suddenaly i couldn't give/receive calls /texts. Since, i tried wiping, flashing, advanced wiping etc but same issue. Any advice is more than appreciated.
Hi, I bought a used unlocked T-Mobile Note 5 a few months ago and for the first month or so it worked great. Then I started getting this Sim Card Removed error occasionally. After a restart it would be fine for a while and then pop up again. Now it's basically constant, several times per hour I get this error and have to restart the phone, sometimes even immediately after a restart it pops up again, other times it'll go a few hours without popping up. I tried a fix I found online of taping the Sim Card into the Sim tray so it can't move, and it didn't help at all. The Sim card works just fine in my Nexus 6p, so it's not a sim card issue I don't think. Any help would be appreciated!!
Anyone got any ideas on this issue? I got a new SIM card and it's still happening.
