[Q] Sim card identification issue - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey
i got a problem i could not solve for a month .. every time the phone is turned on for 12 hours or so, it stops identifying the sim card and starts acting like there's no sim inserted in. in other words, the network indicator (the one on the top of the screen) gives me a block sign.
I figured a way to solve this issue by taking the sim card out, then put it back again.
Is there a permanent solution for such an issue ?
My device informations:
OS: 4.4.2
Moto G (XT-1032)
Rooted
Stock ROM
Recovery: Advance philiz.

Are you sure the SIM works fine?
Did you cut it yourself?
You should try with a different sim and see if you experience the issue again

i too am having this same problem!
i first updated my device to the latest android version and noticed this problem.
so i tried flashing back to stock rom by following the guide available on the forums and checked again...but to no avail.
also, i tried with at&t and t-mobile sims, both of which work on my nexus 5 but are not recognized on my moto g.
my moto g is the global version btw (xt1032).
anyone else facing this issue? or is this a hardware problem?

Rooted Samsung I9000 sim card not detected

Hi All,
I've just got an Samsung Galaxy S that is coded to a provider network.
So far so good ...
After I've installed an application and root the phone and then unroot it, my pone doesn't recognize my sim card ...
If I navigate to the Mobile Network from Settings then I get No SIM card inserted.
Facts to take into consideration:
- I have restarted the phone;
- I have applied a factory reset and lost all my data except music and files I've got on it;
- I have shacked the SIM card a little bit;
- I didn't applied a hard reset to it;
- I did tried to put a different provider SIM card and the message I get is to insert PIN then is asking for the UNLOCK NETWORK PIN;
- I am able to log in the phone but with no service
Please note that when starting / restarting the phone I get no Insert PIN popup
Anyone has an ideea why ?
I've got the same problem saptaru.
No sim card is detected in my Galaxy S.
If you happen to solve it, please, do not forget to post a comment.
After dialing #*1234# I can read:
PDA:
PHONE: Unknown
CSC:
I guess the IMEI cannot be recognized by the phone.
At least, I wrote it before rooting and flashing.
Any help will be highly apreciatted!
Hello,
After several restarts, hard reseting the phone and enable-disable networking I still get the sim card removed from time to time ... I don't really know how to debug this... if there is anyone on this forum with the right experience in order to debug the system please write me and maybe we can find a solution.
I must mention that I have unlocked my phone and also rooted it.
Thanks allot !
I have same problem now, can anyone help.
well my sim card has been identified but i can't seem to register on the network.....thats as far as i got as a noob with my first android (xperia x8)......can someone help me from here on......
i get nothing from sims from various networks, it doesn't even register as having a sim in it...
unlocked and darkys rom... driving me crazy, it basically a large mp3 player at the moment...
Maybe have installed the wrong ROM. i9000 has many bases and radios. I had this problem installing 900mhz ROM on a 850mhz sim.
Good luck

Hmm, ok this might be the issue, flashing the htc desire is so much simpler!!
Will try to find correct radios and stuff again...

Have the same problem here. Have you managed to find a solution?
Hi everyone, I don't know if anyone is still interested but I've found that putting the phone into flight mode and then rebooting seems to work, because when I then turn flight mode off it asks me for my pin code and service is restored. As long as the IMEI folder is still in the efs folder then things should be fine.
Hope this helps for anyone who is here or just stumbles across this.
I've had the same problem > Sim Card not found.
I went to the Vodafone repair center today they said the phone had water damage.
Its never been near any water ever-they said that it could have happened months ago - "perhaps you hand wet hands once?". Its still in warranty but the apparent water damage means the warranty its now invalid. So now I'm stuck with an expensive video/audio player with WiFi access. Any help or progress with this issue would be great. Thanks
I fixed the issue bu flashing a working Modem from another rom. Just extract the modem.bin and flash it with odin

Signal Issue

Hello All,
Recently I have updated my one x on 4.2.2 with the help of this http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-x-att/news/ and after that my phone is not picking singal of my sim before the update it was working ok. I tried 2 different other network sims and they worked but my sim is not working I had touched my tongue on the golden area of the sim and then re-insert the sim and it pick the signal but they are gone in 10 mins. Can anybody tell me how can I fix this problem ? Is this is the problem of the firmwear update ? can anybody tell me how can I downgrade my phone back to 4.1 ?
Thanks in advance
Imran
You can't downgrade to an earlier Android version unless you unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery, get s-off, and flash a custom ROM or run an earlier RUU. I think this is a bit extreme though because you're not experiencing a software issue, you're experiencing a physical problem with your SIM card or SIM card tray. You can try sticking a piece of tape (of two) to the back side of the SIM card, this will force the contacts together a bit better. That will probably fix your problem.

[Q] Wont recognize SIM card after flashing rom on MOTO G PLEASE HELP!

Hello, i recently thought about flashing a rom on my phone, i did all the basic stuff unlock boot loader, root etc but when i put the file on my device i got stuck in a bootloop, so i panicked a little and went on to google to find a STOCK ROM for the moto g. I found one and flashed that instead, it did infact save my device and i was so happy at the point, but then i noticed that at the top on my task bar it said i had no signal on BOTH Sdcards when infact this phone only has 1!? (my o2 simcard was in at the time) Anyway i went into setting and it had above he wifi setting "Dual SIM settings" which i have never even seen before. Anyway i clikced on that and it says 'SIM1 Disabled' and below it says 'SIM2 Disabled' Also my Mobile DATA has vanished to. All this worked before i went and screwed up my device. Im kind of in a panic and really dont want to loose this phone :crying: :crying: Please can anyone help get me back my signal and data, other then that everything else is working normal.

You have flashed a single sim variant of the stock ROM on your device, find the dual sim version for your phone here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14
Also, of course your data has gone as your phone has undergone a reset and firmware flash
All of them are not for 4.4.4 or does that not matter?

Absolutely. From experience, you must flash the dual sim variant. Unfortunately, there is 4.4.4 available, but only for the States. You might PM me the OTA update package and I'll be able to help.

[Q] No sim after lollipop update on moto x

Hello everybody,
I have a moto x (1st gen) and I did a full unrooting and flashed back to stock to be able to update to lollipop. While flashing to stock, I took out my sim card to avoid loosing all my contacts (I know I made a big mistake!), and after that, even with my sim card inside, it keeps telling me no sim. Is there anyway to fix this problem?
I already flashed back to stock 4.4.4 with the sim card inside, and it also said no sim. I updated again to lollipop and same thing. I would be grateful for help with this.
Thanks.

I've tried that several times and it has been to no avail. I don't know what happened this time I did a full stock flash, but right now, it is showing INVALID CARD - EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY. I've changed sim cards and reinserted the sim several times, but... same old INVALID CARD shows up.

Moto G X1039 stuck in radio off

So... without too much boring stuff:
MOTO G X1039 - SW state : Lollipop 5.1 via OTA update - not locked on any carrier or bought with any plan
SIM card dies (no signal) - test the simcard on another phone to confirm and it did die.
After going and swapping the sim with a new one still no signal ; test the new sim in another phone - working.
Looking into settings i see it fails instantly when i try to manually select a carrier.
Things i have tried so far:
-fiddling with network type (lte,2g,3g) and rebooting
-factory recovery (lollipop)
-unlock bootloader
-restore to Kitkat 4.4.4
-removing the battery
-different sims from operators
what i did find is some very puzzling info from factory mode and phone status
Sorry but im not allowed to post links so if you want to help pls add dot before org and check in browser
without sim:
postimgorg/image/komcalo5d/
after sim insert
postimgorg/image/qrzqi6nel/
postimgorg/image/5ejutqxwn/
postimgorg/image/dzd6kx82v/
postimgorg/image/dd6kmcvoz/
So as you can see - the SIM slot is working and detecting the smi but the radio seems to be stuck in OFF state - pushing the turn on button does nothing.
i have searched far and long and found no "identical" problems or other info beside the idea that thers a radio-off function (S-radio ? ) in bootloader or something ?
Anyone got any clue whats going on with this damn moto or what else to try ?
Thank you.
bump this post since I've got exact same problem. and seem no solid solution found.
Anyone get to the bottom of this as I have two with this problem after trying to install stock ROM's back onto them?
