[Q] Help!!! App Download Problems in Market

I have a vibrant but my t-mobile account is not yet active and I do not have a t-mobile SIM card.
I inserted an AT&T SIM card just to unlock the the phone but the AT&T SIM card is not active either.
Even before I unlocked the phone, I could not get it to download apps from the market.
I thouht it was because the phone did not have a SIM card so I unlocked the phone using the AT&T SIM card but it still does not download.
Whenever I choose an app, it says "Starting Download" but it will not progress any further from that.
Is there something that I am doing wrong? Shouldn't the phone download apps regardless of the activation status of the SIM Card.
I have tried everything including cancelling the pending downloads on download manager.
Please help!!!

You will have to sideload apps by downloading them on your windows or mac pc and placing them on the sdcard. From here you can use the FILES app to manually install the apk's you download.
As I understand the Android Market's limitations you have to be active on the carrier to use the Market. So, sideload until your account is active.

SIM card question

I am having txt msging issues and called VZW they said they are sending a new phone and new sim card. My question is can I try the new sim card with my existing phone first to see if that corrects the issue? I was wondering if I could try it on the old phone first to see if the issue is corrected and if not put the new sim card in the new phone they are sending.
Thanks
Good question as I was always told sim cards are tied to the phone but it being the same phone number it might work. Cant hurt to try it out.
NO they are NOT and you can SWITCH SIM CARDS on the FLY to DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS/PHONES.
The rep just doesn't know the engineering of the system.
You can even do it on VZW.Com.
Log into VZW.COM, go to switch phone.
Click on the old phone to kill (phone #), and it will be deactivated.
Now power down the old phone.
Now it will ask you for the IMEI# of the new phone.
Enter that.
Now it will ask you if you want a NEW VZW SIM card # attached to this new 4G device which will be pre-active in the systems and mailed to you or want to use a existing SIM card #.
Select existing.
It will ask you for the old SIM card # serial # (IMSI#).
Enter that (starts with 89).
That old SIM card has now switched profiles from a old 4g device to a new 4g device.
Activation is all done.
Now just move the SIM card from the old device to new device and boot.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 cannot detect SIM card

I always get that grey icon of a sim card with exclamation mark & cannot make any calls. Restarting the phone doesn't work, neither does removing the sim card & putting it back. But imei works and the sim card works aswell . Tested it in an other phone.
Is there any possible way to solve this?
Maybe your Sim-card slot is unclean? Try to clean out it by compressed air or degrease. And also try to wipe chip on your SIM card.
done
Try downloading hck tool
Try usin a small paper sheet on the sim to push it down.. It helped a fren o mine!

Jiayu S2 Advanced, both SIM cards not detected?

Hi,
Believe me - I tried all the things I found searching the web - this is my last resort..
I have Jiayu S2 Advanced 2/32GB, It stopped detecting SIM cards after system update.
Original Adroid was in version 4.4.2,
After this happened I tried to change ROM with the ones available on needroom portal, as well as Jiayu website and Jiayu.es
Tried to upload ROM with SPflash and CWMRecovery - I went through different 4.4.2 version and 4.2.2 - everytime ROMs were working fine, but SIM cards are not detected.
At the same time I observed that all 4.4.2 Android version did not even notify about SIM cards missing - only 4.2.2 did it.
IMEI address is correct (the same for both SIM cards) - tried to overwrite it anyway with the same numbers - but still the same...
I'm not an expert, but I think radio file is included in ROM package when flashing with SPflash? If not - where can I get it and how to upload it to the phone? Any other ideas?
Attached screenshots from system set up and Mobileuncle Tools - on the SIM 1 I see some signal strength changing and Radio is ON, no matter if card is in or not - status of those doesn't change if I put SIM card in.
ONE MORE THING!! Just found out - when telephone starts up there's standard info 'Slot 1: No SIM card detected, Please check if SIM card is ready' and the same message for SIM2, but when I clear messages and then on working phone I take out SIM card from Slot 1 and put it back 1 second later I get the same message again 'Slot 1: No SIM card detected, Please check if SIM card is ready' - this make me believe that SIM actually is detected, but somehow not recognized! The same thing happens if I "play" with Slot 2. Please help!!
Did you manage to fix it? I am having trouble myself; The SIM cards are detected, but cannot connect to the network. The IMEI was blank after a couple of ROM flashes, but I have restored it. Still, no luck... Probably the efs folder or something like that is corrupted, but I have no backup.
Same issue in Jiayu S2

2nd sim not working~HTC

Hlo...I am having HTC Desire dual sim I was trying to add the "phone" apk to make it look like material designed so I changed it in the system partition but when I reboot my device I noticed that the app that I changed is only for single sim variant and then I replaced my old APK back but when I again restarted the phone I came to a problem that my both SIM were not working. then I factory reset my phone and after that only sim 1 is working and when I try to put SIM card in sim 2 it shows no sim... But when i take it out... It shows me the message says please insert the sim 2 properly which means the hardware is working fine... Any help would be appreciated...
