Hi there. I have a Galaxy Mini for over a year now with Mebitk's CM7.2.
Recently, I switched to Galaxy S3 and put my Mini aside. That was about a month ago.
Now, I try to put in my friend's sim card in it, and it doesn't read it. Tried with 3 other sim cards, and none are read.
Anybody has a clue on what might be the issue?
the issue is with baseband...try changing it...there is a guide in android development forum
Try Flashing to Original StockRom
Via Odin.
Tried both things, none worked.
I get the feeling it's not a software issue.
anybody else have any other suggestions?
It's probably a hardware problem. Last time I dropped mine and it can't read it. It doesn't ask for pin. After sending it to the service center, it fixed
I have a Developers Edition, using an AT&T sim. I just got the sim about a month ago, as my previous phone had a normal sim instead of a micro. I'm running Android Revolution 8.1.
Intermittently, about once every two weeks, I lose all connectivity and it says sim card not found in the status bar. I reboot the phone and everything is fine. I've tried removing and re-installing the sim card twice now.
Has anyone else had this issue or know the cause?
I had that happen to my DE for this first time this morning. A reboot solved it (for now). If I'm not mistaken, this happened on the HTC One X and a number of people got new SIMs only to have the problem resurface. I guess we'll have to wait and see how many others are affected or if it's limited to only a handful of devices. I doubt if there's anything wrong with your SIM card, but AT&T will give you a replacement if you want to go that route and see.
I used to have the problem one my one x, it was caused by a poorly fitting sim tray combined with the body and back not being completely rigid (it was the same underlying problem which caused the screen flex and wifi problems on the one x). I solved the sim problem with a new sim tray but the underlying problem always remained of course...
Hello,
I am with international HTC One and I have already had this issue twice. But for me, rebooting the mobile does not solve the issue. The first time, after having switching 10 times with some other cards I had, it suddenly worked when I put the card from an Iphone.
This night, same issue again ! Up to now, even with changing with the same card, it does not work !
**** ! I don't know what to do......
Any ideas ?
i have had same issue with my ex One X . Went to service and replaced mobo.btw while all process service guys scrached the body,lost bluetooth sensivity,lost wifi sensivity,green-orange led became bigger light.
i hope something wrong with your Sim.or store can replace with new one . otherwise bad days waiting for your One.
Found this solution in another forum. Sounds like it might work.

My G6 says that my SD card is corrupted, so when I go to format it the percentage completed immediately shows 20% then, after about 10 seconds, the formatting screen closes before it completes the format, and the whole time it shows that it's formatting it is always at 20%. Then my G6 acts as though there isn't an SD card in the phone, it only shows up again after I power cycle the phone. I have tested multiple MicroSD cards on this G6 and the same thing happens for every single one I tested, but I happen to have (limited) access to my mom's G6 and when I tested the same cards on her phone it says the SD card is corrupted, but successfully formats it and mounts it.
The MicroSD card that I would like to use with my phone is a 200gb SanDisk card.
Thanks in advance.

Hey, Can it be read/formatted in a computer with your sd adapter like a flash drive? if it can try reformatting it there then see if your device can recognize it. if it can't or it says corrupt / needs to be formatted and craps out... it's your SD card. it is the same one I had (probably..with red lettering on it?) That's the bad news, the good news is you can still go online and register it with SanDisk and they will send you a new one for free (cost of shipping to them the corrupt one, you have to pay.) But they will send a replacement, I think it took about 2 weeks to get one back.
Take care.

I can plug it into a computer and format it successfully, it works in literally every other device that I've tested it in, including my mom's G6. That's why I have a feeling that the problem is being caused by some sort of issue with my G6. I have tried factory resetting my G6 two times already and it failed to fix the issue. I want to root my phone, but my software version is H87211h, and the method mentioned here has (as far as I know) only been tested on devices running H87211g.
Hello there. I have same problem with my LG G6, It shows every SD Card as corrupt and tap to fix. when i try to fix and format it get stuck on 20% its been more then two months and i am unable to use the memory card on it..
There is nothing wrong with Memory cards , it is the problem with the LG G6 either it is software issue or may be due to the fact that i have changed the Sim Tray as my sim tray was broken... The Network sim card work fine only problem is the Sd Card.... If any one have the sim issue or any solution .. Please share.. Thanks

Same thing happened to me, my SIM Tray broke and I bought a replacement from Amazon and that's when the issue appeared.
I updated my G6 to Oreo and now it shows what command is causing the formatting app to crash. I've attached a screenshot.
OK, so with the new info (sd tray breaking) I think what happens is when the SD tray is breaking, it's getting caught up on the little pins inside that contact the SD card and bending them a bit, and then that pin or pins are screwed up so it can't read the SD, and because it detects that there is one in there, begins to format and go thru the sectors when it gets to the messed up pin it craps out because it's not reading anything so it's saying the card is corrupt at that point. You have to send it into LG for a warranty repair. I had to do this too. go on the website, register your device, tell them the SD tray broke inside and it won't read the SD card or the SIM, and you will get a repair number within 24 hrs or so. Send in the device and you will get it back about a week turnaround time.
Good luck.
Most every time I've had this issue has been after an update or switching ROMs or kernel update and usually the issue is the kernel.
So basically speaking if you have an SD card corruption after any of these particular events reflash your kernel first.
I just bought a new Samsung 256GB microSD. I copied everything from my old card onto my PC, then onto my new card, and then put the new card in my phone. Android says it's corrupt and needs formatted. I try to format it and it always gives an error saying the command failed. Put the card back in my PC (which now can't use the card either) and performed a format (without the Fast option). Android still says it's corrupt and always fails to format it. So I put my old card back in the phone, and now it says it's corrupt too...
I had noticed that when I first opened the tray door it was being janky and wouldn't come out but a half inch. After reading this and getting the error for my old card too I decided to take the tray all the way out. Wasn't easy getting it out and now it's broken. Or already was broken. I tried cutting off the broken part and put the tray back, but now it won't even see a card or my SIM. So I've ordered a new tray. Hopefully that will solve everything... Unless my pins are jacked up as suggested earlier....
Well, got a new sim tray, and now it can read the SIM fine, but every SD card still says corrupt, and it fails to format it each time.
Out of warranty -- I bet the repairs cost half what I paid for the phone (like $200, crazy sale, two years ago). Sigh.
Any other thoughts on this?
The same problem with my lg g6 dual , did you have solution ?
Thanks to everyone pointing out that broken tray that damages the pin's issue. Seems that exactly what happened to the phone I gave my mom. Little to no chance here in South Africa that we could get it repaired for any reasonable price. At least this thread stopped me hunting around for a solution to the "keeps-formatting" but not working issue. Bit of a waste that I bought a new memory card, but not the end of the world. Wasting a few hours on a lost cause is much worst.
So glad I found this...
Unfortunately I already bought a new tray to replace the broken one, but now at least I know not to spend hours and hours on an issue I couldn't possible fix myself...
Is anyone still on these threads?
I need some advice from an experienced member. More of a theoretical issue - can a phone not recognizing a SIM card be a software issue if the wifi is working?
I'm having some trouble with an old phone (S4 active ATT I537). I managed to flash it back to stock and played around with it for a few days, rooting, a ROM etc then restarted it one time and now it will not recognize the SIM card. It's driving me crazy I tried cleaning the contacts but I'm about to just sell it as is.
-Same SIM works in an S4 I337 right after I take it out of the active and put it in
-Wifi works on both phones
