I have an Xperia L as my secondary and Note 2 as primary. The Note had to go to the service centre so I tried using its micro sim in the L. It won't register and keeps saying No sim. I tried moving it around to no avail. Can anyone throw some light as to how I can use my micro sim in the L immediately? Cannot buy an adapter for now.

I suggest you to go for adapter.. Moving sim card around would damage the sim circuit..

Adapter is the way to go....they come really cheap.
Otherwise you may damage the connectors
Maybe you are not putting it in right place in right way.
I seriously suggest you get an adapter, you might break the phone due to this
mirco sim is not designed to go in normal sim

Hi guys,
Been on CDs for a while as a guest running ARHD Rom on my sensation.
Got a bit of a problem, when I got in from work today, my sensation fell from my sofa on the laminate flooring. The phone seemed to work until rebooted it. The sensation is displaying "insert sim card to phone".
I have rebooted it a few times, factory reset, sim card in and out and even a small bit of paper on top the sim to ensure contact and its still not working.
I am starting to think its hardware related which means sending it bk to HTC.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
P.s. I gave taken the ad whilst trying the above. I have not reflashed the Rom yet as I would not think its software related.
Many thanks
Wad
You tried other sim cards?

The phone doesn't detect the sim, it was cut by me. Used to be a normal sim, works on other phones but not on this one. I believe its supposed to click when it goes in but that doesnt happen ofc.
I was wondering if there was anyway to get this sim to work.
TIA.
Please contact service provider they will issue microsim @ cheap price, don't put pressure might be your sim slot will break

You may have cutted out part of the chip, could you post a picture of the sim (chip side)?
Yes, it's supposed to click.
Best thing would be asking your carrier to replace it with an actual microsim

Well it actually doesn't seem well cut...
I'd suggest to trim it and try again before going to the carrier's shop!
I tried to make it better... Didn't make any difference.. Ty anyway

Would it be possible to set this up in some way? I have (I believe) an RFID card to get into the building at work. If I can do this using my phone, I could get away with not even taking my wallet to work, or at least thinning it considerably. Sciatica is making it really hard to sit on a wallet anymore
You inset the key in the case. Presto.

I tried one of the cases with card slots, but it's just too thick. About the thickness of 3 to 4 regular cards
Not possible, those cards are encrypted using one of several proprietary methods.
I figured as much. It was worth a shot, at least
RFID is also different from NFC.

While true the phone should be capable of both. Just splitting hairs though.
Back to the original topic, just squeeze the card in between the case and phone and you should be good. Only downside is Samsung Pay may not work as well if it somehow interferes.
I tried squeezing it into my v20 cases and it caused 2 to break and split. I'll end up figuring out something
My non-elegant solution:

Hi
I'm about to purchase a Z5 (I know that is has 2 years now, but on a sale I think it's still a good buy). I'm wondering if it is possible to convert E6653 to E6683. I have a Huawei P8 lite and I have done it using https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/guide-debranding-converting-single-sim-t3305977 . Is there any thing similar for the Z5?
Thanks
Is this really possible ?

I think NOT possible. Hardware should support this. After looking sim tray for both models, not possible to do that.

I agree that the hardware must support. In the P8 lite the trays are separated but the second SIM tray holds either the sdcard or the second SIM. You can see it in this picture that the SIM is put on the side
. So the Z5 single SIM tray might hold 2 SIM as well. The question is if the Z5 hardware will read the second SIM in that position (and then the software would have to be dual SIM, of course).
Thanks
Hello everyone
Few weeks ago I destroyed by error the SIM card tray and now all the pins inside are broken or bent.
I'm not using this phone anymore but it served me for many years and it has been a great companion so it deserves to be repaired
I haven't opened the phine yet so I can't say how bad is the damage but I was thinking I might have to replace the whole motherboard but if this means that I will lose my data, I would prefer to replace just the SIM card module
Does anyone have any recommendations for proceeding in this direction?
The Lumia is a 64GB model operator and country unlock.
Thanks!

Try eBay or AliExpress. You could find what you want.

Sure, there are plenty of places where I can find that piece
I was hoping in some other type of advice, possibly from someone who has already done it...
