Try a factory reset, if that does not work your Sim tray may have a short in it and it may need to be replaced, but this of course is assuming that you have the HTC EVO 3D X515 aka shooteru, However if you have the CDMA version you have an incompatible rom,ment for gsm versions of the 3d

Tried factory reset didnt help. Sometimes but very rarely it can read my sim sometimes it doesnt work at all
Try getting a new SIM card from your carrier see if that works if not try different ROM and if all else fails maybe the SIM card contacts are damaged or dirty In the SIM tray

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.

i bought a used evo 3d and it was working fine until i pulled out the sim and replaced it with another sim...but i did it while the phone was on...i thought it was off,but it was on,and after that it doesnt recognize any sim i put in....i've tried several sim cards and none work...what could have gone wrong?is it hardware or software problem now?
i've tried flashing a new rom,tried updateing the radio,the imei,bb,,kernel,everything is showing in "about phone" and seemes to be working properly...anyone know the solution? i am ready to donate via paypal if someone can resolve this!
Can I ask what provider are u on?

yes i mean sim card...i have tried a few different cards,and none worked,its unbranded phone,no sim locks ot whatever...i took it to the shop,i fortunately have warranty and they accepted it,i thought they wouldn't because the phone was bought in slovenia,and i live in croatia,but htc has international warranty! so i am good! i will see what are they going to say in 2-3 days...maybe i'll get a new phone
Probably, shorted something

it is from us cellular if you ask me its the s3 mini anyways itsa cdma phone that has a sim slot which has a card in it for us ceullar. now im confused the phone specs say its cdma only but with a sim card that makes me t hink its gsm global(locked to any us gsm providers im sure) and cdma so I would assume it will work with say cricket wireless.
I am leaving u ceulluar and would like to use the phone with c ricket wireless and being its a cdma phone im surei could it is just that sim card confused me.
I know on phone in past cricket can take your imei i think it is and use a tool over the phone to convert it to propperly work on their network.
So basically anyone know if this phone can be used with cricket? is it locked? do I ahve to flash it. if the gsm part is locked that wont matter since i will only be ising the cdma part. here is the link to the phone on us cellular

Edited: The sim card has your programing for CDMA & 4g/LTE access. Just took mine out and it has zero service without it. I would guess as long as you put it in another compatible phone you would get service.
Hoping someone will figure out a simple rooting method, but doesn't appear there is a lot of interest yet.

Thanks but nah not what I was wanting, i wanted to be able to use the phone on cricket but since they dont use sim cards since their phones are cdma was why I was confused that this one has a card since usually only GSM phones use those. so im guessing I wont be able to use it on their network if they added it..I know they can convert certain imei's over the phone with a tool they ahve with cricket support but have not tried that yet.

So, just wondering, would the Samsung Axiom work on T-Mobile or AT&T ?
yes and no
The R830 by U.S cellular is a CDMA phone. now ah days having a sim card slot does not symply mean its GSM ....TMobile....GSM ALL DAY. ATT GSM all day. Vzw,sprint, uscellular...CDMA. the Sim card in question is a 4glite. it controls the 4g side and basically activates the phone upon new activation. the question is: WELL THIS PHONE WORK ON CRICKET? Answer...yes...I put one on Pageplus by just activatiing the imei and then OTA...but I'm having trouble with the DAta side... cant get data or MMS (picture messaging) to work..talk and texts works fine.....Now im on to figuring out how to get this thing into DiagMode without rooting it Oh yeah.....try activating your Imei on cricket and then star code it. . if it asks you to press 1 or 2 but you dont see a keyboard,....thats okay...just let the lady run her mouth until the music starts playing....when its done the phone will restart and you'll have talk and text

No, your phone will not work on either. The sim slot in question is for 4glte, all 4g phones will have this sim slot. A GSM sim will not provide any functionality at all.

Dont think that will work, cdma doesn't have the hardware to use sim cards as well as radio frequencys for GSM.
That is most likely a replacement part for a GSM Evo3D

That's for if you want to replace the SIM slot, which you don't have in the first place. The CDMA Evo 3D does not have the hardware or network configuration for SIM cards, it's made to be card-free. If you do intend to install a SIM card slot in the phone, it would be for 'eyecandy' or a storage compartment.
in my hand is htc one x plus unlocked.
its originally from telus in canada.
i am using a koodo sim card in it but the phone has no service whatsoever even though the same sim used in another unlocked phone will work but wont work in this phone. this is the first time i have ever owned a htc phone after hd2 long long time. so i am not sure what to do and what to check for it. if somebody can help me i'll appreciate.
thanks

it says "ME returnd a temporary error" when i pop the sim in and no service. any idea of this error tried googling and got nothing
You shouldn't have a problem since Koodo is a Telus subdivision. Is it a Micro SIM card? Or a SIM you cut to have it work?
