Hy
I have a little problem!
I got a new sim card in my motorola milestone. But the phone keeps rebooting all the time! sometimes i am able to write a text but if i wanna call its too much and a reboot starts!
i have tried another sim card in my phone and it works!
i have tried another phone with my card and it works!
i dont understand if its a sim card problem or phone problem.
i have 2.3.7 kernel 2.6.32.9 cyanogenMod 7.2.0
does anyone help me out?
Tell your carrier that your phone keeps rebooting with the SIM card they gave you and they unless they replace the SIM for free, you see no reason to continue service.
the problem is that my sim card works in other phones.
Now i got my milestone back to the stock and it seems to work.
I think it was the cyano 7 but now without it my phone sucks!
I just got a used AT&T Vivid with what turns out are 2 anomalies that I failed to observe initially.
First I tried to put my ST sim card out my AT&T SGS, and get no service. No big shock initially since I have to change the APN info. Couldn't do that cause option is dimmed.Checked further, No IMEI, IMEI SV, or baseband. Took sim out and observed that I get NO sim error at startup, just "no service". Tried an AT&T sim from a friends Vivid, same result.
I was hoping that the sim card reader just might be bad, a cheap easy fix and apparently some what of a common issue. Haven't ordered one yet until I get more info on whether the no sim error and no IMEI etc are related and it's not a more serious hardware issue. I don't have a problem with repairing hardware if needed.I'm a noob here, but have a brain like a sponge, so any thoughts on how to proceed with diagnostics would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
No imei is really bad...
No one here can help you recover it without a proper backup... I have no idea how to back it up nor restore...
If you don't figure it out I'd have to suggest flashing to stock... prolly via ruu and go to an at&t store...

I don't think (but don't know 4 sure) that this phone is anything other than an out of the box stock configuration. I don't have service with AT&T so I don't know how much help they would be. I did check with them to make sure IMEI printed on the phone wasn't blacklisted and it's OK. All I have done was to do a factory reset to clear all the PO's stuff.
Does anybody have any more ideas? I am wondering if I don't need to replace the motherboard and or just the simcard/sd part. Changing the motherboard would mean a different IMEI right?
No imei means something went wrong with the bootloader. It's unlocked? Did you try to S-OFF?
I believe flashing a rom stock via RUU (that's it, flashing the PD.zip file) maybe can fix the problem.
At worst you must change the motherboard and yes, you will have a diferent imei.
I may be wrong, but I see no sign that anybody has done anything to change ROM or anything else on this phone. I'll try to do a S-off, and unlock it since I want to use it on ST anyway.
hello,
i've also same problem here
flashed with stock rom but no luck ,
bootloader locked and s-off
searched forum but no success story
i think i'll return it
Well I finally got a new SIM/SD card reader and installed it. No change.Tried ST, AT&T, and T-mobile sims
Still get no SIM error when booting with or without a SIM card, has an X on signal strength, and it doesn't even say "no service".
Same as to IMEI etc. info, nothing shows up.
Am I going to have to change mainboard? Or is it possible firmware/ROM changes could fix it?

Unlocked the bootloader tonight, no problem. Will try s-off tomorrow.
Where can I get a stock rom file?
I'll only ask this dumb ? once: Is the OS (JB,GB,ICS) different than the rom? I'm still running gingerbread 2.3.4, should I got to ICS or? Will that have any affect on the imei issue?
I might just be getting some experience with this phone if I have to do it all over with another mainboard.
OK, so I decided to play with this phone again after my SGS1 was freaking out yesterday. I finally found and used a phone dialer code do download the ICS update, and it downloaded (via wi-fi), installed and rebooted fine. In fact It apparently fixed my IMEI and SIM card problems because when it booted the first time with ICS it showed a big icon "no SIM installed" ya hoo!! checked IMEI in settings, all was good. Played around with settings/menus a bit to familiarize myself with the differences, then restarted...NO IMEI again, and no sim error without any SIM installed On the next 5-6 restarts it worked fine all but once, (total on time of around an hour) but now every restart (10+) it's back to same original issue: no IMEI shown and no SIM error. I still have no AT&T compatible SIM card to really test it but if it doesn't give me a SIM card error (no SIM card installed) it's a moot point.
It really puzzles me that it appeared to work at all if I have a bad mainboard. My daughter in-law has a Vivid with a bad screen she's going to give me to use for parts (mainboard) but I'm not sure if there's not still some hope of salvaging the current one.
Comment, thoughts etc... Please
Hi, I have S6500D and since it was quite slow, I decided to flash custom ROM. After some unsuccessful attempts I managed to get CM 11 working. But later I realized it's not detecting my SIM. It will find network operators, IMEI seems legit, but it won't connect. Also, if I inserted a SIM with pin lock, it actually asked me for pin, but after clicking OK it won't do anything. I've tried different network providers as well.. nothing.
Now, I have seen similar issue on some other Samsung device (I think) and the reason was that I had wrong baseband, which lead to the fact that the modem was not working at all. But with this, it just won't register the SIM card.
As last resort, I've flashed some stock ROM via Odin, but still the same. Any ideas what might be causing this?
Thank you for any advice.
//UPDATE: Well, I found the problem, only it's not on SW side, but hw one instead. As last resort, I have disassembled it, to find out that one of the SIM tray pins is broken.
Hey there. Around a week ago my S5 Mini suddenly can´t detect my SIM anymore. It just happened from one day to another without doing anything unusual.
"Insert Sim Card.
Insert SIM card to access network services", is the error I get. (Had Android 6.0.1 back then)
I feel like I´ve looked through everything Google offered.
I already did the following:
- Put my SIM into another Phone. It works there.
- Tried another SIM in my S5 Mini. Doesn´t work.
- Ordered a new SIM Card
- Updated to newest firmware.
- Factory reset
- Opened my phone and replaced the Sim/SD Card tray with a new one I bought online.
- Flashed 6.0.1 via Odin
- Flashed 4.4.2 twice
- Checked IMEI via *#06#, all fine
- and other stuff. (Airplane mode etc)
It´s really strange. The phone worked for over 2 years quite fine. Now a month after the warranty expires I experience this problem.
The device is not rooted. But in order to repair it I would root it.
Hope I can find some help here
Hi, since a few weeks my phone get weird and the sim card disabled without reasons or messages....
I tried to change roms versions (pIxel experience-Ion-and others) and finally it's the same, no changes!! it could happened 10 times a day or just 1 time in few days....
Well so I'm looking for a solution please help me
I can see my IMEI in sim card options
MotoG5sPlus (Sanders-XT1805-32go-Havoc-v3.0-25122019)
If you have a 2nd slot for the sim, try that. Or get a news SIM - that one may be bad. It happens

thx. Yep I already change the nano sim card and the same. i did not try the second slot cause I need my sd card but I will in case.
I have the same problem... I decided to root my new moto g5s plus but after unlocking my bootloader and rooting the phone with magisk my sim card reader died... I tried the secondary slot and rebooting a few times but It didnt worked. I already tried with the stock ROM but nothing...
