This is a lie, there is NO way to hook the sim card up. And even if you could, it makes absolutely no difference development wise.

There is no simcard, but there is a simcard slot

And what good is that when we have a processor made specifically for CDMA signals.

Agreed, many users have attempted for a year now to get it to work. If memory serves me right two things.
1. The Sim card slot is not even connected hardware wise
2. R800x CPU is different then GSM models our CPU is designed for CDMA frequencies.
Anyone who says that they can get the SIM card slot to work is lying.

[Q] Is the SIM slot on the Vibrant hot-swappable?

As in, can I insert and remove the SIM card without taking the battery out?
Thanks!
Most phones can't do this. Vibrant has the battery physically blocking the SIM. Also, there us a Q&A section.

don't mind him. He woke on the wrong side of his mom.
But he is correct. The battery physically blocks the SIM which IMHO is a good idea. I can't imagine a good reason for pulling your SIM while your phone is on.

Short answer: No
Long answer: No you can't for the reason Rudeguy stated

Sure you can if you want to reach through the battery using your super powers and get to the sim card, and then take the chance of frying the sim card because as it comes out it runs across the contacts and voltage hits the wrong place.
Definitly not eve when its acessiable
i dont kno about urs but my Vibrant rocks

Amaze showing no sim, imei is ok... What could that be?

Hey peeps, i have a problem with an HTC Amaze in here thats not recognizing the sim card. It shows the imei and all that. Radio seems to be fine but then again when it turns on it will not recognize the tmo or any other sim card. Its running 4.0.3 ICS but thats about all i know. It had never been open before i did. Inside everything looks ok. But i know that doesnt mean everything is ok. Could it be the sim card holder? I have already checked the pins that make contact with the sim card and they look fine. Hardware? Software? Any advice?

I only say this because i made the mistake of putting the sim card upside down. All my previous phones were the opposite. lol
Lol! very funny story but this is not the case ha ha... So any other advice will be appreciated. If i find out ill let the forum know what i did...
That happened to my first Amaze. It fixed itself the next day, but another problem popped up. Unfortunately, I had to trade it in and get a new one. Hopefully, everything will work out for you.
Had to use a new sim card when I got the Amaze a couple of weeks ago. It wouldn't recognize the card I been using for for year.

this. i would think you need a new sim card. the imei has zilch to do with the sim
i had to get a new replacement for my phone, kept resetting it and everything flashing new roms, radio would work then go out, got a new phone works great again.

What sim card are you using? Maybe the card is incompatible. Any T mobile store should new able to help you with that.

Micro sim adapter

Switched from my rezound to a gnex to check out jellybean and see if it would fix my mobile data dropout issue, which it did. Now that new radios are out, I would like to try out the Rezound again. The gnex uses a micro sim, so I bought an adapter. But the Rezound won't see the sim. Does anyone else do this? And is there a trick?
Make sure the cut off corner in toward the bottom of the phone when you slide it in.

Test the sim in another mini-sim sized phone if you can. Sometimes the adapters have size issues and need to be played with a little before they fit properly and show the sim card

I figured it out before I read your post, but that was exactly it. Seems funny that the notch doesn't face in to me.

It is kind of a pot shot if you don't know which way it goes.
This sim adapter works great. Decent shipping time too, unlike the rest of the chinese crap.

For a free micro sim adapter, order a giffgaff sim below as it comes as a microsim inside a normal sim so you can either use the new sim or use it as a template to cut your old sim to size.

Motorola DROID RAZR XT912 sim card slot broken.

I have a Motorola DROID RAZR XT912 which I was using with a sim card adapter but when I tried to remove it the sim adapter got stuck so I forced it out and think that something in that slot got bent now I can't insert a sim card in the slot. So what I want to know is that is there a way to repair the sim card slot? also if any one was in a similar situation like this one then please let me know if you were able to get it fixed. Thanks to everyone in advance.
I have this situation, and I am on PagePlus cellular, so it doesn't require me to have a SIM card, but I don't get 4G (I am on 3G right now), and it limits me from using Android Lollipop, as that requires you to have a SIM card to make calls/texts and use data. I don't know how to fix it though...

Every time I put in a sim card, it doesn't click in. I have tried with a T-Mobile SIM card that I cut, and that works (It clicks in place), but I don't want to risk messing it up, so I won't buy a full Verizon SIM card for the time being (I also don't want to mess up cutting it and cut it too large)

I don't know what he is asking but I know a hardware hack to get dual SIM and SD at the same time. Pretty interesting

i believe he is talking about the phones with dual trays such as the S9. All of the phones with dual trays built into the chassis are physically able to accept a dual sim tray, just not all mobos have been set up to utilize a dual sim setup. The G960F and G960FD are the same phone, the D just stand for dual sim. AFAIK, nobody has done a tear down on a FD vs a F to determine if any hardware differences exist. Completely unrelated side note, its really hard to type when a kitty is pressing its head against your hands LOL!!

Lol. I believe the s8 models f and fd are compatible. Just needs the firmware and a IMEI tweak. I'm pretty sure the hardware is there. I'm actually been looking I to it on my 9650 as it has the hybrid tray. Im pretty sure it works. Just no IMEI attached to slot 2. I see guys somehow slapped slot one Imei onto slot 2 so just matching IMEI on both slots.

see, now would that fall under imei cloning? Is it problematic to "clone" your own IMEI within the very same device? If its all good, then id like to see it discussed a lot more. Im going to Romania in a few months and would love to have FD working on my G960U. I thought you had a 9550 not a 9650

Imo it wouldn't since it's same device same IMEI. Only issue is the s8 and up IMEI are written with cert files. So you would need more than likely a paid service.
Maybe this would work? Would make me a little nervous about waterproofing TBH but kind of a neat technical concept: https://www.simore.com/en/mobile-phone-accessories/samsung/galaxy-s9/
You might need something like this to make it work: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xposed-unlock-dual-sims-sdcard-on-s9-s9.3888952/
