I updated my phone to 2.1-update1 and at first i could only get my sim card to work half the time. Now my phone says no sim card and will not detect it at all!!! I cant make phone calls or anything! Ive tried taking it out, wiping it, restarting, uninstalling all task killers, and now im trying to put it in another phone then back in my xperia. Has anyone crossed this issue when updating to 2.1update1?
OMFG! My sim card was in backwards!!! xD
you failed dude!
Hi guys
I have a big issue with my S3 GT I9300. This morning, everything was running well and suddenly i got the error message "No SIM card, insert a SIM card". I didn't try to flash any ROM, or put any root or something. I was on my desk, the phone was on the table and when i checked it a few minutes later : no network and SIM card error message...
Until now i was on I9300XXUFME3 ROM. I tried to clean the sim card, the sim card slot, push the sim card while the phone was turning on (maybe it wasn't touching correctly the pin), but still getting the same issue. My IMEI is OK, still the original one (no 00 or 0049, etc).
That's why i decided ot flash a orginal ROM and flashed my phone to I9300XXUGMJ9. Flash is OK but still getting the network issue (no sim card inserted)..
I couldn't try my phone with an other SIM as I was alone at the office but i guess the issue comes from the phone as my SIM card is not old at all (i have it for 6 months only) and I don't remove it often from the phone.. Until this morning, my phone (bought it from someone 6 months ago= was working perfectly and I didn't flash it since May 2013, so I don't really understand..
I also tried Ariza's patch (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601) but when I press "Apply fix", it starts downloading and stays at 0%.. Nothing seems to be downloading.
Any help would be very greatful guys, thank you.. :crying:
Don't go flash crazy, you'll do more damage with that patch.
Sounds like your sim card reader is faulty, not an expensive item to have repaired.

Hello,
I just went to an Orange store here in Paris and the issue was simply a deffective SIM card.. They replaced it by a new one and got the issue fixed
Thanks a lot guys for your kind help!
Hi guys, i have similar problem, i tried different sim cards, none worked, tried changing the whole card reader with a brand new one, but it didn't fix the problem.
everything started approximately a month ago, or even more, i tried rooting the phone after applying the update but i missed up and almost killed the hone, after allot of effort i managed to bring it back to life and re-installed the firmware update, but the phone started giving me the "Not registered on network" error, and the IMEI changed to that 0049 thing, then it started telling me to insertsim card.
the thing is, before all this happens I had no idea how to important it is to backup, so I have no EFS backup
so, any ideas what could be the cause? and how to fix it?
I am having problems with my phone because when i boot my phone it turns on normally, but then resets for no reason. it only happens when the SIM card is inserted, but if i enable airplane mode or remove the sim card (turn on with airplane mode turned off) then it runs just fine.
i read somewhere that it might be a baseband problem but since i have hboot 1.53 version S-on i cant update a new one.
any help would be appreciated. thanks

Try another SIM card. If it works fine, you need new SIM, if it does it again, your SIM slot is broken

I got the problem solved, i was able to downgrade my bootloader and to install the stock rom with 1.49.... and it flashed the radio too so it works fine now
i installed king cobra rom and installed the new firmware too, working fine here too.
Hello,
I got this problem with my s3 that it doesn't recognise sim card. I tried to replace whole sim card slot but it still didn't work, and i allso plugged the sim card slot from this s3 to another one i have and it worked, so it is obviously not a problem with card slot. I allso tried to factory reset, but because i couldn't find factory reset option in settings, i did it in recovery. But that somehow bricked the phone and i had to reflash rom with odin. But the problem was still there. Do you guys have any ideas how to fix this problem?
Hi. Having a problem... Phone tries to restart after maybe 1 min. Usage ... But only with sim card installed from certain operator. Other sim doesnt create this issue.
Android 6.0.1. Tried flashing cache. Safe mode. And more. If this sim is in the phone it tries to restart ... But infact fails. Just freezes with lg logo.
Any ideas? Known issue? Or should i simply get a new sim card from the operator?
