i've cut a normal sim card (old M32) which was always working into a micro sim unsing the template floating around the internet.
inserted to the phone, it detects the carrier but it just cant register to the network. emergency calls only.
anyone know whats wrong? or just that these old sim cards are not compatible on phones that takes micro sim?
i've attached a screenshot, cut vs original micro sim.
micro sim
just get a original micro sim, that one that you cut will not work, the cut was not perfect, you have to be super cautious to use that device you use to cut it

Yes you can have two SIM cards simultaneously.
What you will need to do is:
Insert the Pay as you go SIM card into the SIM slot and the Data SIM card into the microSD card slot. To be able to do this will need to get a special code from T-Mobile called the SD-SIM unlock code.
Very important to use the Data SIM card into the microSD slot since this will give you better speeds than if you insert it into the regular SIM slot.

LOL. That was hilarious. The moment I read data SIM in the sd slot I started laughing
I've always wondered about all those dual sim adapters you see on Ebay. This One, for example claims to "Auto Switch" to allow incomming messages and calls from both cards at once, and manual switching for outgoing. for $7, might be worth a shot. Only downside is having to cut up your sims, but there are others out there that don't require this.

Hey, I've loving the review about the Htc One looked at S & yes the phone is sent with a MicroSim ...
I would like to set my phone, but still have an old sim that is great and I would like to keep my old phone number and ask my is:
Can I have my SIM CARD & big punch then the MicroSimAdapter the old card in the Htc One & S put it all work?
that makes no sense .
Do you mean can you cut an original SIM down to size for the One S ? If so the answer is maybe. Some chips are bigger than others so it might not work. Ask you provider for a micro sim, They are free.
If you meant can you use a micro SIM and use an adapter to use that SIM in another phone ? The answer is yes, you can..

Please, I need help.
I just bought a Galaxy Tab 7.7 used, and i tested when I went purchase with another boy, and everything was ok, SIM Card normal functioning.
Once I got home, the SIM card does not work anymore, it does not recognize the SIM card and recognizes no other.
Has no 3G network anymore.
Please, is there anything I can do?
ROM Stock 4.0.4
Check there is no obstruction in the SIM card slot and clean.
If you haven't done anything to the device, I'd return it if possible. The seller should be reasonable about it.

I am about to get the phone once it is processed. I am using an old galaxy s 4g with a regular sim card. I also have a 2 year old unused micro sim card. I wanted to know if it's best cutting the regular card to a micro sim card or activate the old unused micro sim card. Or do I have to get a newer micro sim card from t-mobile. If I do either the first two methods, will I still have lte even though they are not the newer sim cards? I have read that even if you activated the newer sim cards at a tmobile store that people didn't still get 4g(Lte) but instead got the H/H+. Others are saying that the phone or the account needs to be provisioned. I am under as an added line under my mothers account which is only a few months old if that matters. Thanks in advance.
T-Mobile doesn't need any provision. If I was you, I would personally just get a new Micro SIM, you ensure that you have the newest and latest SIM card which will ensure that you'll have the best possible experience in LTE data and cellular signal.
Call them up and they'll give you a free SIM replacement in the mail, or you can go to the store. Very easy to do.
If you did cut your sim card into a micro sim, you wouldn't get LTE with that old of a SIM card. Enjoy your phone.
To get LTE you will need an LTE enable/capable SIM card, so get a new one from Tmobile
