Hi all,
I'm facing a strange problem.
With my Xperia Z Ultra, when I insert a virgin mobile France SIM card, the phone goes in an infinite reboot loop... Can't do anything. It's the second SIM card from this carrier that does it.
With a T-Mobile US SIM card, it doesn't do it. But of course, I can't and don't want to use the T-Mobile SIM card in France.
Any thoughts? Our do I have a faulty unit and need to send it back to Hong Kong?
Thanks for your help

I had the same problem last week in Hungary with my Italian sim, 2 days before I was in Slovacchia without problems.
Came back at home in Italy everything works fine
Sorry but I really don't know why
It s look like a roaming problem
Apn maybe?

Hi danilos2k,
I confirm it seems to be linked with roaming.
I've tried with 3 different sim cards from different carriers and only the ones from MVNO (Virgin mobile and Free mobile when roaming on Orange network in France) have this strange behavior.
Does anybody else has found this strange bug?

Good news,
The recent update for HK phones seems to have solved the problem.
I can use my phone with my Virgin Mobile France sim card and it doesn't rebbot anymore...
I'm a happy camper!!!

I purchased a galaxy s3 I9305 today. I have rooted it and installed supernexus. It all seems to be going well but now when I go into the network settings and choose LTE/WCDMA/GSM, as soon as I exit it reverts back to WCDMA preferred. I am in LTE reception. The only thing I can think of is my sim card. My sim card is almost 7 years old, I had to cut it down to fit the s3. I have read varying things regarding 4g sim cards. Could this be the reason?
Wrong forum

You should be on the I9305 thread, not the international version one

Yeah, you have to get a contract with a provider which supports LTE...
!!!!THE CONTRACT MUST BE SUPPORT LTE TO GET LTE!!!!
Without this you cant get LTE....

I have a sgh-i527m (Bell) which got unlocked. I tried a few custom roms but went back to this stock rom since I wanted full functionability.
Periodically, I would get the "no sim card" error. A simple reboot or re-insertion of the sim card usually fixed this issue but earlier today, It just clunked randomly and no matter what I tried, I could not get my sim to work (Fido). I even went to Fido and got a new SIM, since my sim was so old it wasn't even the LTE sim. And still no luck.
I even tried using the scotch tape Nexus fix, still nothing.
I tried re-flashing stock rom, no luck. Going to try a nandroid backup.
Also, my friend's SIM works fine, which is Rogers but my Fido sim won't work yet my Sim works fine in his phone (unlocked i9500). Ironic, because Fido uses the Rogers network..it makes no sense.
Somebody shed some light please?
Have you tried flashing a different Baseband to see if it improved? I have heard issues that on some networks with Kitkat the software has trouble switching between 2g, 3g and LTE and this causes the sim error because of registration issues on the network.

I never had the sim error on kitkat though, only stock rom.
Anyway i think i figured out the problem. My simtray is broken, pins pushed all the way in.
Bad luck buddy that happens far to easily......you would of thought they would of developed a better system that didn't break so easily!

Yeah, and the simtray is just under the mem card slot. Its one unit, samsung cheaped out on that.
I ordered the part, will solder it. Will update when its complete

Can i put sim2 with LTE, not Sim1?
Thanks
Enviado de meu Redmi Note 4 usando Tapatalk
Yes you can. In settings, just choose SIM2 for data.
I've did It, but only works in 3g.
Btw, when i share this data, receivers can't connect. When i share data from Sim1 It works Very Well in LTE...
I think the problem is in miui. Any stable and clean ROM that you recomend?
Thanks

Should I be using the new sim card or putting it in another way, is there any benefit of using the new sim that came with the note 8 ?
I'm currently using my old sim card, lost track on how old it is. Probably two years old.

New SIM card works in all countries now it will auto connect you to a matching frequency for internet and phone to work without WiFi when abroad

So it would be best to call T Mobile and have the new sim connected with my existing number ?

My T-Mobile SIM that I had since 2013 always worked when traveling overseas. Never had an issue with either data or phone calls.
