About 2 weeks ago I installed on my Xperia S CM9 by FXP (v. FXP133). Yesterday my Xperia lost signal, even after many reboots there wasn't any signal (well, one time there was, but I losted it after 5 min), so I installed stock ICS (and relocked bootloader). But there is one problem: now my Xperia can't recognize sim card. IMEI is fine, baseband is OK, signal probably too (emergancy calls only). I already tried repair phone in PC Companion - didn't work. Installed CM9 again and unlocked bootloader - still no signal. In Security setting I can't set up SIM Card lock. I can't put another SIM Card, because I don't have another one on this size.
So, what can I do with it? Is there any way to repair my Xperia S without sending it to RMA? Thanks.
And sorry for my poor English, I'm from Poland
dude i have the same problem,
i used miui 2.8.10 for a couple days. The first symptom i saw was that it notified that there was not a simccard in my xperia s, but the simcard was ofcuz in my xps and out of no where it said that there was not a simcard.
i restarted the phone and same story and the second restart it asked me for my pincode which means that it read my simcard.
But today its is game over for me i tried so much restarts and i also installed the official ics no changes and i tried my own simcard in a friends phone (galaxy s3) and it worked but his simcard could not be read by my xperia s.
if there is a solution please share ^^
What are the exact message/pop up? Does it have any options like cancel or dismiss?
Sent from my Sony Xperia S
On stock ROM "Please insert SIM card and restart your phone". But when I remove SIM Card from phone, when it is on, pop up shows up with text "SIM Card removed. Restarting". After that when I insert SIM card, when phone is on, pop up shows up with text "SIM card inserted. Restarting". After that still pop up shows up with text "Please insert SIM card and restart your phone".
On CM9 nothing shows up, still no signal.
EDIT: Problem fixed. SIM card is probably damaged (on my uncle phone works), changed it to the new one :/
And here's the answer
Hey guys I can help because I grapple with the same thing everyday multiple times in a day
The temporary solution is simple.
Just click on settings. Then click on backup and resets. Then click on Settings Reset.
The phone will restart and you'll be jubilant that the issue is gone. But wait a min....its going to come back again! Just do the thing again. And don't freak out, no data will get deleted
All this said I'd love a permanent fix to this annoyance

Try a soft reset. Turn the phone off, take out the battery for 5-10 seconds and put it back in and power up again. If this doesnt work try either a hard reset or try replacing your sim. Most likely this should solve your problem.
Hi, I have had this problem for a month now on my Xperia Mini Pro.
It started slowly, my network signals would drop and upon reboot It would be stable for 2 minutes but then die out again. When trying to connect to the specified network I got an error which stated that my phone was unable to connect to the network.
Today I found out that I can't even connect to the internet or get any bars.
It says just "No service" I have used SEUS and had 20 factory resets.
Doesn't seem to work, any other tips except sending it for repair.
When accessing SIM card options I get "Sim card cannot access network"
Any help, please?
Have you tried to put the SIM card in another phone to exclude that the SIM card itself is defective ? Try that first. If it will work fine in another phone, then it is a problem of your X10, if the card will lose signal in another phone, then the card is defective and i would suggest to stop by your provider and change the SIM. If it is a matter of the phone, it looks like a HW problem if even flashing through SEUS does not help. But we can put an eye on that too. But for now, try it in a different phone.
Tried on my Samsung and it works on that phone but not on my xperia mini pro.
I even tried other sim cards and it doesn´t work at all, can't even search for other networks.
Any chance you have changed network setting failing that send phone back
sent from this midget x10 mini pro using cm7.2.3.3 14.5
Don't think so, I just used SEUS and updated it to 2.1 however now I can search for networks but I get "This SIM card doesn't allow you to connect to this network" notification. I wish to revert it to 1.6 and see if this gets fixed since I started receiving this problem once I upgradet to 1.6. Does anyone know where I can get hold of 1.6 stock rom?
i just bought xperia mini pro and I am unable to save the APN on my phone hence use the 2g or 3g data network. I am using Airtel and even Airtel people tried to help with different settings but none can be saved on my device either manually or automatically..
Please address this SERIOUS ISSUE with xperia mini pro and kindly give me solution.
Thanks in advance for all your help.
Try disabling the SIM PIN feature. This was the only solution that has worked for me with two brand new SE Xperia Mini phones.
It seems that SE implemented some kind of APN "phone settings vs. SIM settings check" when the phone is switched on ... with many (older) SIM cards this leads to the unfortunate result that you describe above: the APN settings are not retained when set manually :-( ... thanks SE for this helpful feature
thanks for your input. Are you from India aswell??
i have following other issues with this let me know if you have the same:
1. When its in the sleep mode (like overnight) the next morning the callers on the other end find my phone switched off!! even if its on. once i start using it than its ok. do u know a way to get round this.
2. on the data issue... trying what you told me... lets see. will update u .
thanks.!!
Get a new simcard- its old and needs to go to rest
wow... is this really sim card issue or SE issue?
WORKED!!! THANKS!!
do let me know if you have any solution for the Sleep- Switch off issue too.
Hi,
I've recently upgraded my S2 i9100 to 4.0.1 (I9100XXLPQ) from 2.3.6 and my Orange SIM does not connect to network anymore (it says "emergency calls only"); manually selecting the network doesn't work either. It worked prior to update and I've tried several roms/modems without success.
Here's the tricky part: this SIM works on my other phone just fine, and other SIMs (even from Orange) work perfectly on this S2. :silly:
IMEI is same as on back of phone..
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance!
call orange and have them reset your account. it should reset the sim to work with the phone.

Then what causes the problem?
Ok, so I went to my local Orange Shop, have them reset my account, change my SIM card, payed my bill (to exclude every possibility that it could be a network issue :angel. Aaaaaaaaand.. it was still not connecting to network. Went to a "pro" guy to have it reflashed. Same problem.
After thinking to smash it into a wall, turn acid on it and put it on fire, I've decided to play around with phone's settings (though it made no sense since I've reflashed it a few dozen times, each time with different rom, so settings would be reset).
So I've deactivated the PIN request on start-up. Aaaaaaaand.. it works! It connects to network, to internet, to everything. If I switch the PIN request back on, it doesn't work.
So it works without PIN request, doesn't with PIN request. What in the name of Chewbacca is happening?
Cheers!
Hey guys, after much pain and suffering I was able to get it working by doing the following:
*#197328640# to enter debug menu
click "6 [common]"
click "6 [nv rebuild]"
click "2 [erases three partition!]"
reboot
May not work for everyone and to be honest I'm not sure what that erases/rebuilds but it worked for me though do it at your own risk.

First of all, does the SIM-Card work generally - did you have try on SIM2 ?
I have another problem with my SIM Card - it will never start working, if I make a restart or quickboot (only if I shut down and start new)
... I solved this by going to the Settings of the DUAL NETWORK MANAGER and stop and restart the card by tapping twice on SIM1 Symbol - then it starts working without any issues. This is the most annoying thing on my device.
This problem starts, as I got another SIMCARD with a smaller golden Chip...
our Device has sometimes problems with the latest SIMCARD-Types
(Hardware-Problem from HTC) as I have found out.
You can also reset the provider settings to standard (Mobile Network Settings)
restart the phone. Then it will find a "changed Simcard" and you can choose the provider settings again.
Let me know if I could help you
