I have a problem with my dual sim adapter Magicsim Elite. If I want to use the second sim I have to restart the phone. First sim works without restart. What should I do? Flight mode makes no difference.
My phone is Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 (not rooted).
I have the same thing. However I don't have Magic SIM but some other brand. Switching works but phone needs to be restarted to complete the switch between SIM cards.
I just got this phone today unlocked from tmobile and inserted my custom-cut nano sim into the nano to micro adapter and inserted it into the phone. Everything was fine for a while but i started noticing my data and signal was cutting in and out by itself when the screen was off maybe for 3 minutes or longer. This is a significant problem as you can imagine. I checked every single setting i could and nothing would make it do so. Any advice or suggestions? Im using a straight talk att micro sim card that i had cut down to fit my i5S but came back to android and used a noosy sim adapter. Maybe its the fact that the card is custom cut (so it already doesnt fit the adapter like its supposed to)? I really need help here. Yes i have the proper apn settings and im fully stock.
Bump
Hello,
Sometime two times per day I got this message: Sim card hot plug alert. In this time SIM 1 is disabled. I see that phone do not see the card. SIM car do not work. After restart everythng work well. Phone is nearly new and I have this problem all the time. It is bad because sometime I dont see this and I am not available on SIM 1. Sim card is new 4G and I had a same problem with old SIM card. Even if phone is on the table this heppend. I put tape on sim card to make better contact but is the same. No efect. Anyone know what is problem?
Two months ago my Nexus 5 would start randomly losing signal or say that there was no sim card inserted. After a few reboots it would recognize the sim and let me use it normally, but when the device gets turned off and turned back on again there would be no signal.
More recently my Nexus 5 just says no sim card inserted but when reinserted it gets detected with no signal. Is there anyway i can fix this issue as i got signal yesterday but sadly restarted my phone because of a graphical issue and i lost the signal again. I have also done a factor reset and re-flashed android. Any help would be useful!
(Yes i have tried other sims and same problems)

Since the phone behaves the same way with different SIM cards, it could be a hardware failure with the SIM card reader.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But sometimes it will detect the sim and give me a signal and if i restart the phone it will not detect it again. If it was something wrong with the sim reader wouldn't it just not work at all?
Not necessarily because it should always detect the presence of a SIM card, active or not.
Most likely, there's a bad solder joint somewhere, it would work after a few restarts because the metal would expand as the phone heated up and make contact again. You could try to bake the logic board, might fix it. But, realistically, it's a long shot.

So, I picked up a cheap Tab 2 3g 7". Everything seems to work fine other than it refuses to understand sim cards!
When I put a sim in with it on, it does the "you must restart", but after a restart it still says no sim. Take the sim out, it tells me to restart...
I discovered if I just push a sim adapter in the slot it does the same, I think there's a microswitch that just tells the thing whether or not there's something physically in the slot.
Tried with three different sims, all working in my phone.
I was wondering - This tablet takes the old mini sim. Although the active pins seem to be the same between those and nano, could the Samsung be looking for continuity or something between the usually unused pins? Or perhaps some other electrical compatibility issue? The tablet's in pretty good condition, the slot feels fine, so I don't want to just assume this is a hardware issue.
