Insert SIM, no sim recognized - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

20 days ago more or less I move to marshmallow developer preview (I don't know if this info could be useful).
Some days ago I changed phone operator. Before to change the sim they told me to wait the actual sim stop to receive the signal. I happened today. So I changed the sim, inserting the new sim, but it does not work. I mean it seems like the sim is not inserted.
I tried the new sim into iphone of my colleague and it works.
I thought it was for some instability of marshmallow and I just come back to lollipop 5.1.3 (wiped everything except the internal sd) ....but the sim is not recognized....Do I have to do a more deep wipe?
Or what it could be?
Thanks for you help
Ciao

If other SIM cards work, the SIM you are trying to install is broken. You need a new one.

Diamond wont receognise sim card

i have a problem with my diamond. It only reads my sim card, wont read any other sim card that is inserted. It was originally using XOR morna rom, done a new flash and still same problem. Re-flashed with a original HTC rom, but still same problem. I some how think its not a software problem as it has been flashed/hard-reset numerous times.
Any one know what problem can be or if anyone has same problem, with solution
thanks
kerim
Mmmm...
When you say it only reads 'your' SIM card, do you mean it's SIM locked. If you're on vodafone for instance, and you put another vodafone SIM in, does it recognise that? Or do you mean it won't allow any other SIM at all... even if the network's the same?
If it's the first option, your device is obviously SIM locked, if it's the second option, have you installed any security software like Ultimate Theft Alert, or similar, which will also block any other SIMs??
its not sim locked, it was an unbranded phone when i first got it. I am on three and have tried 3 different other three sim cards and also a vodaphone simcard, non of them work.
Its like there is no sim card at all. Im starting to thinbk its a hardware problem not software as i have flashed it few times now with different roms
any ideas, i need to get this working urgently
Mmmm...
Definitely sounds like a hardware issue to me. It's probably time to send it away
Hey Kerm when you put the sim cards does it ask you for for the pin??? or what you could do is see if you can try to clean the sim contact in your phone or run a eraser over the sim card contact and see if there is a difference
had a problem with an unreadable sim-card a few months ago as well; A new sim-card solved my problem... But since you are having trouble with 3 different cards, it might be a hardware problem in your case indeed.
doesnt ask for any pins, as soon as the phone starts up with another sim card inserted, it says no sim card. When it starts up with mu simcard inserted, phone function runs as normal, i can see reception bars etc
I had the same problem when i received my diamond. Tried several sim cards but none was recognized.
I received a new phone because it was a hardware failure.
Sounds like mu has a way of making a new kinda sim lock that only works with there phones ,I would digg a lil deeper and make sure its not a sim lock on your phone
what do you mean by MU, couldnt make it out. How can i find out about if its been sim locked

[Q] Does not recognise sim card

I was overseas travelling and used some different sim cards no problem. But on return, I put my original sim card in, and the xperia z says "sim card inserted, restarting" and restarts, only to display the "no sim card" icon. I've tried a lot of things, and got a new sim card from my carrier because I thought that one might have been broke because I didn't use it in a while, but the new one has the same problem.
I really hope it's not a hardware issue, the phone is older than 1yr, and I didn't buy it in this country. I suspect that it might not be, since it was working fine until I swapped sim cards. Could this be a firmware issue? Any suggestions?
[Edit] It might be worth mentioning that I did a firmware upgrade while overseas without my original sim in.

XT 1068 none of SIM card slots are not working properly.

Hello guys.
Recently I have stumbled upon this problem - SIM slots for my Moto G (XT 1068) are not working properly.
The problem is that SIM 1 slot rarely accepts any SIM and if it does, it stays registered to network for about a minute maximum. SIM 2 slot is working more often but still not every time the SIM is recognised.
I have tried the stock 4.4.4 and stock 5.0.2 but with no luck. For custom ROMs - I have always installed the Dual SIM module which was also not helping. The SIM card I am using is working, tested on other phones.
Has anyone had the same problem or some valuable information how to fix this (I have considered the fact, that it could be a hardware problem still I have hope that it is not). I have attached a screenshot with SIM Card test, where it shows some kind of error, for what the information was not found.
I'm not familiar with the error but once I had to changed my old sim that worked fine on the old phone but didn't in the new one, I think the contacts were "molded" to the old phone pins and with the new phone it didn't have contact. Solution was to buy a new sim
I had a lot of problems with the sim slots too, they are one of the worse parts of the Moto G. In my case the problems were mechanical, one slot won´t snap or latch anymore and in both slots I had to put the sim cards in various times until the contact was ok. Self cutted sim cards didn´t work.
I solved this with sticking a piece of thin plastic onto the sim cards so when the card is inserted it can´t move anymore.

Please help, No Sim Card/Emergency Calls only

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.

SIM card not being recognized

Hello,
First of all, I'm a long time reader of these forums, thank you all for the help you provide here.
I've had my blu r1 hd since september, and everything was working fine up until last month went my SIM card stopped being recognized, I don't know what happened, first it was working then it stopped working, then I moved the SIM card from slot 1 to slot 2 and that was working fine for like two weeks and then that stopped working too and now neither slot works, so I'm left with a phone that can't make phone calls. I converted the phone from prime to oem to see if that helped but it didn't, it's still the same. I didn't wipe it tho, don't know if that would change anything. I've tried other SIM cards and none are recognized. I entered *#*#4636#*#* into my phone, and under information it says "turn on radio" as if the cell radio was off.
Anyways, I'd appreciate any help. thanks!
This is a silly question but did you try another sim card? Sometimes sim cards just die. Happened to me not too long ago...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I did, it was one of the first things I tried, but it didn't help
I have the same phone, too. My sim card stopped working after I clicked on an ad/web link, that went straight to a malware website. There was an immediate pop-up message that came up, about the sim card not working/being detected; somehow the sim port got deactivated after this. Go figure.
Dear Sir,
Please tell me Indian SIM card 4g working or working?
