So, I'll buy new Z3+, how can I be sure it really is new, as it doesn't have the flip tape in sim tray, with production date as previous Z versions?
I'll perform all tests from test mode, but is there any way to see when the phone was really manufactured?
Is there anything else I should pay attention to?
Thanks...
The pull-out tray IS there, inside the sim slot. It is separate from the sim tray.

Thanks, so I've missed that, and the coding of the production date is the same as in previous Z versions?

Yes, it's the same.
I've got it, it's from 2016/04, even coming with sony mdr nc31e noise cancelling headset, don't know if it is part of regular packaging...

What's the issue you're having?

i put a microsim to sim adapter and it broke the sim contacts on the tray!! Thats why I don't have warranty. Do anyone know what can I do???
How much does Samsung charge for this repair? I think it is better to have them repair it.
U should try diferent micro sim before u buy main board, u have two type of micro sim , sim with smaller chip and with bigger, the smaller one are causing problem, some of them are not working and some of them have problem with contact.

and that someone screwed it up worse..... i should be able to fix it i pm'd you
..broke mine too!!
..did a similar thing to my Note.....the sim card caught one of the connectors in the sim tray and pulled it off!!!...found a cool video on how to dismantle it (1st video on on "dismantle galaxy note"search) on you tube....on closer inspection the connector had broken and pulled away from the circuit board too (not happy!!). Have hunted high and low to try and find someone who could supply a replacement main board....without any luck - if there's anyone out there that could point us in the write direction/add a link here....i'd love you forever!!
Really missing my Note right now!!!
New mobo for Galaxy Note? Check these guys out!!!
vicdroid84 you may be in luck......have found these guys, their based in Birmingham and are called Intercity business telecommunications (wont let me add the link here) tel:0121 643 7373.....have spoken to them, they can supply and fit a new mobo for about £130......takes about 48 hours upon them getting it to repair...am sending mine of today!!!!!........yipppeeeee!!
Samsung replaces the SIM tray. I read it is less than 50$ and sometime it is free.
Changing MOBO for a SIM tree is like changing a Car engine for a small nut
i recommend you take it to a company that's not Samsung to fix it, Samsung wont fix it if you don't have a warranty

Just pointing out to the OP that the above might be misinformation. The fix should be free if it's a warranty and $50 if it is a sim issue.
and as i said earlier.. if samsung wont fix it .. i can and will... and i can say so far i havent voided a warranty as in the warranty is still good after ive done the repair.. thats how clean..... so anyone with the problem just pm me... its legit too. got pretty good at board level repairs over the past 22 years working for some big name manufacturers... just trying to help...already helped a few on here....
Sim pins
I too broke off 1 of the 3 pins pulling a microsim out. I ordered and received the sim connector from parts4repair.com. But I think I have to solder off the current connector then solder on the replacement. Am I correct?

well its that or let someone else do it... as ive said pm me... i fix them and fix them well... cant even tell i was in the phone... i have references and pics of previous repairs...
i will say beware if you try it... there is quite a bit of stuff you can screw up if you dont know what youre doing...
The last round I bought from Amazon was awful. Some wouldn't even fit my SIM. I need a couple quality adapters for when I flop back between the GN and the 900. Suggestions?

why do companies use micro-sim cards, like do they want us to damage our sim pin connectors on our phones while switching between micro and regular. Oh, wait I forgot "normal" people don't switch, damit we are screwed. Back on topic, It's hard finding a good, if you find a good one let me know also.

Indeed. I had a fantastic one for years and it broke recently. I've been unable to remember when I got it from and there were no markings on it to identify it by.

Okay, that might be hard since, I switched carrier and they don't have micro-sim cards... If you want to see how I position the micro card I can show that.
i found a really good one for just 3€ in a Chinise store here in italy, it has no brand but it works just fine, i can put my iphone microsim inside my father old BB and in my old Nokia e75 without any problem. I think it's just a bit of luck since it's a cheap piece of plastic.
I'm constantly changing my phones so rather then get sim replacement I just get adaptor. Before I inserted my nano sim I wanted to know whether it was save enough to do so? I had a bad experience with Nokia phone using adaptor which got trapped and phone was damaged. Dont want to make same mistake.
Thanks for reading.

I picked up 2 packs of those for use in my office and have had no problems.
Just make sure not to bend the plastic adapter and make sure the sim card is filed. When you pop the card out of the credit card holder when they are new there are small plastic tabs left in some cases. Those can cause problems in adapters. .
Hey folks,
I have a small issue with my SGS i9000 GT which I bought in 2011. I have a nano sim which I use in my HTC one M8 and I use a sim adapter to use the same sim in my SGS. Recently I was stupid enough to just put the adapter void of the sim into SGS sim tray and while pulling it out, I damaged the sim tray. I think the 2 little forks out of 3 were uprooted. :crying:
I took it a small repair shop nearby and try to get the sim tray changed. Now it detects the sim but it shows no service. I tried it with couple of other small shops and they say that the IC needs to be changed. Has anyone experienced something like this? I run a Mackay rom, will factory reset or flashing again help if it's a network / software issue. Any light in this regard would be appreciated.
Cheers!

I also "almost" made the same mistake.. Your most likely gonna have to replace whatever board to fix your sun tray. You've most likely pulled the pins free of the board. Maybe a new sim tray and someone who is really good at soldering can fix this. maybe...
doubt very much it is software as it was working before you did this. But it's worth a try re-flashing. In my opinion your going to need to replace the board with the memory chips attached, if I remember right from when I've dismantled my S1.
I would find a dirt cheap phone on eBay with a broken screen and pull the board with tray from that and put it in yours. Doing so with also mean your going to need to backup your data as you'll have new internal memory.
It's not too difficult to do this yourself, lots of good YouTube videos. Also what I've had to do in the past when I fried my internal memory.
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong. Good luck!

I see this as a DIY opportunity :laugh: I will try to reflash the phone and if it doesn't work then I'll DIY the IC myself. I will update the progress here. Thank you for your valuable opinion.
Cheers!
well i did it. just like a few other on here. got the sim card tray and adapter stuck in the slot. like a fool! so im wondering, does anyone know if the z1 card reader is the same as the z1s? i have the z1s and want to fix it. if anyone can chime in id greatly appreciate it!!!
thanks!
anyone?
I doubt that anyone would know that since most of us that own a Z1 don't own a Z1c because there's no point in that.

Check there if it's any different.

Reporting in, well the sim card trays do look identical according to photos, but just to be safe, i'd order a c6916 or l39u/l39t sim card tray, the l39u/39t variants are chinese versions that look identical or actually are identical to the z1s (cases are interchangeable etc), while the c6906,c6903 which are regular z1 devices are modeled l39h
