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...

Even I am having the EXACT same issues right now. I also did the factory reset but that doesn't help!

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

Hi, I am using Samsung Galaxy SL I9003 for couple of weeks. 2 days ago I found a problem that showed me "Insert sim card". I gave my set a master reset and then the set was ok. But I got the same problem today. I tried the same way. This time master reset is not working.
My IMEI is 354949040415515. PDA:I9003DXKB1, CSC:I9003OLBKB1. Firmware version:2.2.1, .
If someone knows about it. Please help me. I will be grate full to you.
I think you have problem with contacts of your sim card. Try to clean them. Also you can try to show your phone to the service. I don't think this is problem with your firmware.

First advice is never post your IMEI no. in public thread.
As IMEI is intact there should not be any network related issue due to non registration of your device at centre of your network service provider. I feel it could be hardware issue with the SIM card slot. But not necessarily hardware, it could be even problem with your SIM itself. If its used for longtime. first test with another SIM card, may be from a friend or a family member and make sure its not a sim problem. Then if you some how you think it could be related to Firmware you have DXKB2 FW available for flashing as single PDA file. You can upgrade by flashing it from the I9003 firmware thread of Krrazyy or from Samfirmware.com. If that does not solve your problem, take it to service centre for hardware repair. All the best.

Hey, I flashed with DXKB2 last night and my phone acted ok for couple of hours. Then the problem has started again. Another thing is, now it doesn't show my IMEI in setting option or after pressing *#06#......even after pressing *#1234#, it shows me the PDA and CSC, but it shows "Phone : Unknown". Is it a network related issue? If yes, wht to do now. Thanx for the previous comment.

Not network you wiped your phones IMEI with the flash .
You backed up your EFS folder then just restore it .
NO apart from why not you need to find the EFS restore thread that may help .

I mean electric contacts of your sim card. Try to clean them by alcohol. I'm not talking about sim records of phone numbers

Thanx buddy.......Another thing I want to inform you my phone shows "Baseband Version : Unknown". I showed it to the customer care and they said that the problem is with Baseband version. They also said that it's a software related issue. But my problem is it showed the IMEI and Baseband Version for 2 hours after my flashing. Then it started again. What type of flashing is going to help me?
Another thing, Can u please tell me or give me a link about restoring the EFS folder? I searched it in google.. but no result!
In addition I am using it from Bangladesh. As far as I know it is not officially launched here. Do I need any unlocking process? If yes, how can I do that??
N.B: Even kies is unable to connect my phone right now!!!!
I have the same problem
Hi, I have exactly the same problem on my Galaxy SL i9003. Did you finally manage to solve it?
to restore imei you need to have backup of your working imei efs folder.i see you have your imei number written here not sure if it is possible to mode efs folder to fit you phone.

It's been a long time. I was frustrated and stopped trying of repairing my phone. Now I see some light. Some people are talking about efs restore. I samsung captivate, a developer showed the way to repair imei and product code without even using pc.
Is it possible in I9003?
And hey, can u please tell me now whether I can mode my efs with that IMEI.
Please help.
this could be a hardware related issue also !
may be the pin where the sim card is inserted went inside or was bent..
or else insert any other sim card and see if ur phone works or not..
3rd this could be a corrupted sim card problem.. my sim card got corrupted and no matter in which handset i put my card in the phon won't boot ! btw it was a BSNL sim card..

If you made a backup of your efs folder, then via CWM it is possible to restore it. If such a backup does not exists, then things are really complicated. maybe you can use the backup of some other EFS from a different i9003, and try to modify the IMEI with yours that can be taken from outside the box. I don't know if you can do the last procedure but some expert maybe can!
Good luck.
I had a similar issue with another phone and sim card, similar to the contact issue. why not take out your sim and put it on a flat surface to see if it's still flat as it should be? if it got hot and became slightly warped, you'll have to bend it back (CAREFULLY!!!) so that the contacts are in contact again
if this is the case, you have to get a new one at your service provider so it doesn't keep happening...
Moved to General section since it has nothing to do with development.
Unless it does and I somehow missed it, if so just pm me and I'll move it back.
And see if u inserted sim card d wrong way.. It happened to me..
Sent from my GT-I9003
I got this problem too.
It suddenly happened to me when using stock room (xxkb1, if i'm not wrong), and in that time i never flashed anything in the phone, so probably not a software issue.
I tried rebooting billion times, put another sim card, cleaning the contacts, factory resets, prayers and nothing worked. But the weird fact is that sometimes it starts working out of nowhere for 2 or 3 hours and then it stops. It confuses me, because it means it's not hardware too. So then i tried updating to xxkpe and xxkph and the problem still remains.
My sim card is not bent, its not inserted in wrong way, the sim cards work in others phones, shows "Insert sim card" when i try going into network settings, doesn't show my IMEI in setting option or after pressing *#06#......even after pressing *#1234#, it shows me the PDA and CSC, but it shows "Phone : Unknown" (like OP), and i didn't backup the EFS. Everything else in the phone works great..
Could you guys help me out? I live in small city in Brazil and bought the i9003 in Paraguay, there are no samsung customer care or similar nearby.
I bought this device less than a month ago from the carphone house when I was in uk. Today it gave me no sim card error suddenly. the device is not modified not flashed. I did nothing to it. I tried reseting the device but still having the same problem. I tried a different sim but had the same problem.
However, what I did notice that the device ask for the PIN of the sim card but as soon as I enter it. it gives me no sim card error
Any suggestion well be hopeful. Sadly I also lost the receipt
Are you using Agile Lock or any other lock or launcher app?
I hade that problem when I hade Agile Lock installed, removed it and not a problem since.
Thanks for your help but I was not using anything adding to that I did restore the device to its factory settings I did a complete (hard) rest for the device but still facing the same problem
I think I should have expected such a bad quality from LG
Anybody Help
Please anything
Hi, i had the same problem a few days ago, but on another situation.My phone was rooted and i tried to install "original firmware" to get rid of CWM and root, but at 42% of the process"Windows just crashed the LG updater", i managed to restore my old ROM trought CWM but got a sim card error, everything else was working but telephony.
Just tried it again like on this simple tutorial and got the original firmware installed again, and for my surprise telephony was back.
If you lost you receipt and dont live where you bought your phone, maybe this is what you can try.

Hi All,
I have MicroMax A100. Suddenly boot problem developed after unsuccessful installation of some games.
From Reflashing by above post able to boot device but could not detect sim card.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1842908&page=21
I tried all possible way i.e. remove battery & sim card as well as SDRAM for 10 mins. etc.
Nothing happens. Same SIM working well in other mobile.
When I google it I found many people having similar problem where after flashing SIM is not detecting. Is there any generic answer for this Generic Question.
Thanks in advance.
Maybe you could reflash or do another rom or reset your whole device.
Hope it helps
i would suggest you to try checking in other phones...(probably not a smartphone) i encountered the same problem after flashing my phone with the wrong ROM... somehow i got my SIM card running again.....
if you still face the problem... get your SIM card Replaced with a new SIM card and same number from your service provider. that way u can get your number activated:angel:

Please help .... I have a similar problem.
The SIM card it is inserted in the phone, but the phone still writes: Please insert SIM card
The SIM card is new and in the other device is functional.
Please help .... I have a similar problem. Writes that: No SIM card plugged in.
Please help
try checking csc via phone info.
Any fix to this?? I've just gotten the same problem on mine! Thought it might have reverted back to the region lock as I am now using a USA sim card and started off with a UK sim card. Just ordered a new UK Sim to see if inserting that one will fix the issue
Please .... Solution
Same problem here... No sim card.

I had this issue with my first Galaxy S6... I went into the three shop and checked my sim and that worked with another phone, but my phone would not accept any other SIM card. I was told to send to Samsung for repair, luckily I was in my 30 day amazon exchange period so I just sent back to supplier and bought a new one.
Same poblem here.. When i insert sim card, the phone restart and when enter in Android show message... "Error occurred while unlocking network... Network unlock code block".... Its a Japan Docomo network.. U think that can resolve it with a subsidy code? To unlock a sim?
Solution needed urgent
Hello everyone till now their is no solution anyone can help plz reply,

Check my sim jacket by checking hardware
Reinstall many fw with odin even with twrp

1 flashing other rom model on different model like XEF on BTU...
2 updating android OTA failed
3 flashing with smart switch
Its not stolen its the g920f is the problem its sucks dude
If you dont have backup for efs folder and radio folder you need to fix it with octoplus box if you have warranty take it to samsung or if not visite repair place and ask for octoplus compatible with s6 but
This is what you get
1 Working sim
2 signal drops time to time mybe disconnected during calls am sure you get disconnected because i have
3 flashing stock you get stuck in bootloops
And if some one ask you about s6 the answer is dont say s6 its s sucks
Enjoy samsung junk smartphones
