No sim card inserted

I have a galaxy s6 for tmobile. I have been using it fine for a while but the other day it gave me an error saying no sim card is inserted. I had a spare sim card and tried that one with no luck. I tried both sim cards in a different phone and worked with no problem. I have read about people dropping the phone and having sim card issues but thats not the case phone was not dropped. I noticed the sim card issue when i took it out my pocket to send a message and was not able to. the only thing i can think of is the sim card reader is shot some how?
I was wondering if there any other options for me to check before i go and get a new sim reader soldered in?
thanks in advance

Help dualsim

Hi to all.
My Note8 n950F not is dual sim is only mono sim.
Is possible upgrade to dualsim? Any Mods? I believe the hardware is the same!

I doubt it's the same. In DS you have a hibrid SIM card tray where the second slot is capable of holding SD card or a SIM card. With normal Note 8 you won't be able to add the SIM card in SD card slot.

Is ok question of tray,I change it.
The question is second IMEI !

There is a way but the other sim won't be active unless you activate it. Those dual sim flex cables are available

Any more explanation? What are dual sim flex cables?

Object in SIM card slot

I have an Xperia XZ2 bought a few days ago. So when I want to insert my SIM into the SIM slot after removing the SIM tray, I found an object in the SIM slot (Refer to the image below.) I'm afraid to touch it as I'm afraid I will damage the SIM slot more. Does anyone has the same issue? Should I remove it?

It is very blurry.
I can't see it very well.

Its probarly the rest of the flap what you removed totally, why you removed it ?

One of my old phones (Lumia 820 I think) had a catch inside the sim slot, it was used during disassembly.

One of the Sim Card Slots doesnt work with a particular sim card

Hello all,
Me and my bud have mi 9t pro that we bought from Malaysia and been using them in Turkey for a while. Today my friend tried to change his sim card's slot from slot 1 to slot 2 while sim was working perfrectly fine in slot 1. He inserted the pin code, however there was no cell. We have swapped our sim cards, put my sim card in his slot 2 and it worked fine, his sim card also worked pretty fine in my phone too.
All in all, his sim card is fine, sim card slot is working but his sim card doesnt work in slot 2. Does anybody have any ideas how to solve this issue?
Thx already

Dual SIM physically blocked.

Hello All,
I've been looking to add a 2nd SIM to my wife's phone as she'd like to have separate numbers for work/life.
When I opened up the SIM tray I saw that the tray has an empty slot for 1 SIM card and another for SD card. there is a shape of the 2nd SIM slot on the tray, but it isn't fully cut out.
So I went to a few mobile repair shops around my area and was told they can order a tray for us, but it probably won't work as the phone is probably locked in software.
I know the phone isn't carrier locked, since I can switch carriers freely, so what can be the reason some unknown entity went out of their way to lock this phone to a single-SIM only?
And is there a way to unlock the 2nd slot?
Thanks!

Hi
I would take A gable and get a cheap sim tray of the bay and see if it works.
I have 2 sim and Micro SD in mine. If it is software lock i think you could flash A different region software to unlock it. Or It could be blocked as the sim reader only has the pins to read 1 sim card witch could be need hole new sim reader slot.
You could try cut out the plastic blocking the second slot
