SIM Disconnect - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys
So my problem is that sometimes my SIM gets disconnected from my device without any reason. It can reconnect by itself, but most of the time I have to reboot and the worst is that it can still be disconnected.
I tried cleaning my SIM slot, cleaning my SIM card, but now I don't know what to do.
Did you guys already experienced this ?
Thanks.

I fixed this issue recently by putting a small piece of the sticky part from a post-it note on the simcard and then putting it back in.

cut a piece of post-it slightly smaller than the size of the sim card, and stick it flat to the top of the sim card (not the side with the metal contacts). Then put it back in the sim tray and put it back in the phone. Make sure you use the sticky part of the post it so it stays on the sim card.

My Touch 4g not reading sim card at all!!!!!!!

My MyTouch 4g does not read any sim card. I have sim unlocked the phone and s=off. Ive flash all the radios non work! Tried 4 different sims (T-mobile, AT&T,Straight Talk (NOKIA E71), Simple Mobile) all failed. Flashed 5 different roms including the orginal.
Can any one help me????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe the sims card sensor readers on the phone by the battery are damaged have u had anything get into yo phone like dust or water
HTC Glacier (Black) - Virtuous Unity 2.39/Kernel V9 Unity/Beats Audio/Good Screen/Good Emmc
Are you inserting the sim card the right way?
i havent got any water in it. I have to check for dust and yes im intersting it just like the picture on the phone
The first thing I'd go with on something like this is a physical problem.
Is the SIM card seating properly in the little slot? There's that metal bar that goes over it to give the springy connectors something to push against to form a good contact. It's possible that the connectors aren't being pushed into the card enough.
It's worth a shot to push it in with a finger with the battery cover off just to see if you can make a connection. If you get anywhere with that maybe try cutting a playing card up and sliding it in over the SIM to basically make the SIM card a little big and tighter in the slot.
Since different cards aren't working and different ROM's don't fix it it's a fair bet that you're looking at a hardware problem. If it's an electronic problem you're screwed. If it's a "the slot doesn't hold the card tight problem" you have options.
May be too simple, but did you put your SIM card in the wrong way? Haha, don't be offended, because I am not trolling in any way. But this happened to a friend of mine the other day.
I actually joined this site for the same problem but my WiFi and Bluetooth don't work either. Mine is obviously a radio problem but I can't seem to get my phone to flash new radios...

changing replacing sim card slot i727

So i needed to change the module board of SIM Card, got one on ebay, opened the phone and replaced the little board with 1 flex conector.
but NOW when i turn on the phone theres no message of "sim card not found" and theres circled slash on where suposed to be network.
am i missing something or i might just screwd it up?
Open it up again and make sure everything in connected correctly and that nothing is shorted.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
ok finally made it.
the thing was that its so damn fragile...o replaced many times the boards in many diferent and sensitive ways...and then one way worked out even though i cannot tell whats the different between the correct position and the other ones that did not recognize the SIM CARD module/board.
Error for me too

I had a similar problem, turned out the replacement tray was bad.
I don't get to say this often but I actually encountered great customer service. I ordered the replacement sim card tray/sdcard holder for a Samsung device on which the sim card reader had been damaged. I received the one piece tray but the sdcard slot was non-functional. I wrote an email pointing out the flaw with no expectations. Got a new part in 2 days. No run around at'all! No 2 hours navigating an automated phone nightmare (Net10/AT&T), just a dang email. I gave em good feedback ratings on their site of course! I don't know if it's allowed but it's so rare to find good folks I feel the need to pimp em.

But for my own safety i re-set the whole phone and re-flashed cm10.1
Phone is working fine. Reading sim, microsd card but sadly i'm stuck on 2g now.

I need more details. Are you on jb, kitkat, or gb? Try wiping cache and dalvik....
check status under settings / about phone ..
Does the IMEI show up?
Does it match what is on your SIM card?
If not your SIM slot connectors may need some clean up - try using CRC QD Electronic Cleaner along with something very small and non-abrasive to get at the contacts - be very careful not to damage or bend the contact wires. As a first attempt, remove the SIM card, spray the cleaner (a couple small squirts to hit the contacts), spray a small amount on the SIM card, insert/remove the SIM card, gently clean the SIM card, then wait 10 minutes for everything to dry. You can use compressed air (i.e. Dust Off) if you have it to dry around the area - gently.
If you still don't see your IMEI, you may need a replacement SIM card.
Or it could me something else altogether.... :fingers-crossed:

Replace sim card slot reader

Hi, I just purchased a Galaxy S7 SM-G930FD and wanted to do the 2 sim and 1 SD card mod so that I could have both my lines plus SD card however the mod got stuck in my tray, I damaged the micro SD card and Sim card and I had to push the eject tool so hard that it damaged the ejection mechanism! Now the tray won´t go all the way in! What´s the replacement part that I need to order and where can I buy it?
Thanks!

Hi
Check in Ebay they have them OEM or generic
Thanks, What should I look for?
Hi! Thanks! The thing is I don´t what to look for. I´ve searched for the motherboard but that doesn´t have the card slot, neither does the front or back chasis. I would prefer to buy a piece that includes the card slot so I won´t have to solder anything.

Hi Max 404, Thanks! but the tray is in perfect condition, what I ruined and need to replace is the slot where the tray goes, would you happen to know which part of the phone comes with the card reader slot? I´ve found the reader itself but I have very little experience soldering.
Thanks a bunch

Mate
That is going to be very expensive , is the mainboard and lots of disassembly...not easy at all
Check here (step 11)
Here part number , plus no IMEI you have to get someone to transfer your original Imei to the new mainboard.......
Did you ever successfully fix it?
Same problem on S8+
after bending 2 eject tools to get the tray out (had installed 2 SIM + Micro SD mod) I managed to get the tray to stick out from the phone for like 2 microns!. the tray wouldnt move out any further so what I ended up doing was to pull the tray out with the help of dental floss! as genius as I thought I was, soon after I found out that the tray no longer sits flush inside the phone. even without any SIM or SD card. the tray it self looks alright. I think I have damaged the eject mechanism as well. Has any one solved this issue? am I looking at a costly repair? could it be the tray being deformed?
I cant post pictures sadly yet here. would appreciate if any one can help.

Fix Sim Card Issue

Maybe it has come up before, but I wanted to create a quick thread about this issue, because it has seriously began to getting on my nerves the last couple of weeks.
In the beginning when my phone didn't detect the sim card(s) I simply had to reboot.After that I had to remove the sim card manually and insert them back into the slot.At some point they weren't detected at all.
I searched in the Lenovo forum and found this thread:
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G...lus-SIM-card-randomly-disappears/td-p/3543823
For now I've cut out a tiny piece of paper and put it between the sim card and the top side of the slot, rebooted and voila.
My both cards were detected.
I've ordered two adapter, because the method with the paper is provisional at best and hopefully it will solve this until I get a replacement for the cards or buy a new phone.
With best regards
