hi
the network signal in the notification bar is good (3 or 4 bars) but the error message (NO sim card detected, Insert sim card) always appears and the phone doesn't make or receive phone calls or messages , when you try to make a call it says "you are not registered on a network"
the strange thing is that even with no sim card inserted in the phone , it still shows good network signal . i tried different sim cards and did a factory wipe , still the same problem , What do you reckon ?
Thanks
I reckon you're in the wrong forum. This is the S3 forum. Not the S3 mini forum.

Hello everybody! I have the problem with my Samsung Vibrant, please help me.
The phone doesn't get any service when you insert you T-Mobile sim card. It says "not registered in network" whenever you make a call with it.
It get signals as shown on the signal bars but says "not registered in network".
I don't know is this a software or devise problem. may be if I'll unlock phone it will be work.

It could be that you have a bad sim card. You can call tmobile and they will send you a new one. Or you can go by the store and they will also.
Hi Guys,
My friend has asked me for some help with his x10i.
He's purchased it from a market, and it was locked to T-mobile.
Its since been network unlocked by a local store, in theory to allow use of any network sim card.
However when you boot the phone with a sim card in, it comes up on the notification bar
"Phone Not Allowed MM#6"
It will show the little signal bar full.
Checking phone status it shows
Service state - In service
Mobile Network State Disconnected.
It appears to register onto a network, be that orange o2 ect.
But we are unable to make outbound calls, receive calls.
Yet browsing via gprs is working.
I have checked the IMEI with the T mobile. They advised that the phone is clean and not barred.
I have Tried different Sim cards i know are working.
I have Flashed the Firmware back to Stock, Tried the Latest Firm and a few other different combinations.
I am now Stuck.
Any suggestions?
Thank you
Bump......?

did u try calling the network provider your sim card is with? they usually may have to program the network with imei number of the phone
u can also try going to network settings, search networks and choose the one u r on.
so back again
recently had a post about my galaxy s2 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1502801 ) having network connection problems
so since the galaxy was bought second hand, i unblocked it with helroz application. The point is - it doesn't recognize my sim card in the country where i am now (Orange - France -only emergency calls), but accpets my foreign sim card (Roaming of course - but connected to one of the operators (SFR)).
Does this suppose to mean it's barred?
Does not accept a sim card
Sim Card faulty
Sim Card blocked .
And what do you mean by not accept have you set the Orange network connections ??
jje
both 2 cards work perfectly on other phones, so i don't think it's sim card problem
for each card the gsm ask for pin code - correctly input
but only for the orange card shows - emergency calls only
by settings you mean the APN?
aren't they supposed to be automatic when you insert the sim?

Nope, sometime you need to configure yourself, send message by you network operator or manual install, just give them a call
APN are fine
they were correct, deleted anyway and input again, same situation....
other suggestions?
still don't get if phone is barred why is my foreign sim card working since it uses the roaming netowrk?
Hi all.
Does anyone know if it is normal to have your Sim card provider listed twice in the Network operators list. As my Galaxy S3 shows '3' twice and O2,EE and Vodafone just the once.
Reason I ask is that I have been having problems with a new S6 not working with my new Sim card though '3' said it was fine.(I had just recently been in to have my sim changed from Micro to Nano size) So I'm currently in the process of sending it back. When I put the Sim back in my S3 it was doing the exact same thing the S6 was. Showing it was connected to the '3' network but dropping the signal all the time and going into 'Emergency calls only' mode. Manually switched to the other '3' in Network operators list and phone now works fine.
I could never recall it ever showing '3' twice so wondered if ther store had programmed the sim wrong.
Anyone?
Cheers

Hi,
I purchased a USED Galaxy A7 2018 dual sim F variant. When I first inserted my SIM card, it was working fine. 4G and calls, all were working.
But after I factory resat it, mobile network stopped working or even detecting. SIM card is still detected and I can see it in "connections" under SIM cards in settings app on my phone. But when I try to dial a number it says "not registered on network". On lock screen, it says emergency calls only. When I go to "mobile networks" in settings app and tap to select network automatically or manually, it gives error that unable to find/connect to a network.
I tried three different sim cards yet same thing happens. SIM cards work just fine in other phones. Also, it is not a problem with sim tray on phone as sim card is detected and shown and as I said before, mobile network was working fine before resetting the phone.
When I purchased it, there was a custom ROM installed on it and OEM Unlocking was ON. I installed latest stock ROM from Samsung plus a couple of stock ROMS but same thing happens with every ROM.
I am out of ideas on what should I do now. I would really appreciate any help anyone can give.
Thanks.
Finally found a solution.
