[Q] Phone reporting sim card removed when using contacts - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

When I going into the phonebook application and start scrolling contacts or try adding contacts I get a notification come up saying that my SIM card has been removed and I have to reboot my device!!??
Any Ideas?

You might just need a new SIM card. Verizon should replace it for free.

CONTACTS

I have transferred all my contacts from my mobile phone SIM to my XDA
using the SIM manager. I have now updated my contacts on my XDA
adding addresses and other details.
If I want to transfer these updated contacts back to a SIM, what
details will go across to the SIM? Is it just name and telephone
number?
Thanks.
i think that what your cellphone can display as contact info is what the sim can hold infomationwise
sim contacts
Only the basic names and mumbers will be saved on sim.
If you want tho save the full addresses etc then you need to save your contacts file in full to your memory card, or to your PC. You can also save using backup.
You can also save them in outlook.
Its a real pain but the PDA looses everything but the basics if the battery goes down.

Phone>menu>people>view> uncheck the sim card contacts option. Not really deleting the contacts but atleast they won't bother you if you can't delete them.
I was able to delete them while on the beast rom. Don't know how or why but it worked. Didn't stay on that rom but contacts were gone when I flashed back to super lite.

Thanks but I figured out
Delete Sims contacts
Goto Contacts app
hit menu > view > uncheck all, leaving only sim contacts checked > done
hit menu > delete > select ones you want to delete or select all > delete
back > view > recheck contacts you want displayed (google)

I did it but I still have the problem. It says no messages in SIM card.

Look in settings see if delete messages immediately is checked , if not its likely saving the messages. I keep delete messages immediately checked
If it's not checked they are sent to a folder. Have you looked into settings and deleted the messages out of that folder?its worth a try under general settings you can find delete old messages . Hope this helps, it's worth a shot...

Any solution here? I have tried the SIM card in other phones too, but still not receiving SMS. I ave changed to new SIM-card, but still same message: "SIM card full", I have SGS2. But this is defiantly not a phone issue. May be a provider issue?
For your information:
I received SMS on my twin sim-card, so SMS was forwarded, but not received on primary sim-card. Very strange.
My SMS issue was related to a problem with my provider. Even after replacing(registering) the SIM-card with a new one, I had that problem.
The provider restarted some services on my subscription, and everything is fine now.

SIM card full

I have a message on my phone that says that my SIM card is full and I need to clear out messages. Downloaded a SIM card contacts app to view what I have on it and it indicated my SIM card is empty. I also deleted all of my text messages, rebooted the device, cleaned off the card (physically), etc following instructions from multiple threads there. No dice.
Any idea what this thing's problem is?

I don't have any. Do I just go to the store of my carrier and request they set me up with a new one?

Yup, I had an old Sim, and when I bought this phone I had to get a new one.

Your sim card if full because you've been saving your contacts to your sim card and you shouldn't have done that you should be saving your contacts in you Gmail account you need to delete the contacts from sim and uncheck back up contacts to sim and check gmail account so you will always have your contacts even if you get another Android device

You mean you are getting messages but your phone isn't displaying them?... If that's the problem,check whether the messages are being stored on your SIM memory instead of your phone memory.
They being stored on the phone memory, and what if it was being stored on the sim what should I do
Sent from my P4 using XDA Free mobile app
Go to messages>settings>text messages>manage sim card messages. Check whether the messages are present there and also check what is the storage location which is present somewhere in that list... Make sure it's phone memory to which the messages are being stored.
