Hello
My SGS3 gti9300 is not detecting my SIM card, it was fine this morning, i used my mobile data without any problem but as soon as i switched my mobile data off, my phone lost network. It tried pulling off the SIM card and putting it back in but in vain; my phone would read the SIM card, it says 'No service'. I also tried checking my IMEI number by *#06# on the dial pad, it would display 'null / null'. I do not have any other micro SIM card right now to try in my phone. My current SIM card works fine on other phones...so i guess the problem is in my phone
Besides, later when i played music on my phone, the music would stumble and at times the track changes by itself. That problem came along with the SIM card one.
My phone is not and was never rooted. It runs on Jelly Bean.
Please help me fix at least the SIM card issue :crying:
If your phone is fully stock and never rooted then return to Samsung for warranty repair.

It's look like a problem with efs. Search on forum how to recover efs files.

Hi,
Recently, my canadian galaxy note stopped reading all sim cards. Ive tried flashing various roms but still nothing. All I get is the insert sim card icon in the task bar.
There are tonnes of threads regarding the international version, but i was wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
Just had this problem. If avail swap out sim cards with a known working card and if it still fails to register, the phone needs to be replaced.
Just happened to me yesterday and got a new phone today!
Hope this helps!
I am currently having the same problem with my ATT Note, but I am sending it to samsung to get fixed or replaced under samsung's warranty.
First check if your note has a an imei number. Go to settings about. There's also a # shortcut but I don't recall what it is. If not efs got corrupted some how. If you did the shortcut key if efs is corrupted it should display null/null. (I've got a captivate with this problem)
Sometimes it's a bad sim contact. Just by a worn out sim card, its happened to me. Clean off the contacts or get another sim card provisioned. Costs $6 for a new Rogers sim provisioning is free.
All of sudden, my phone does not detect the SIM card anymore. I inserted another good SIM card, and get the same error. I tried to press the SIM card to ensure good contact, but not working. No problem with other function. I inspected the SIM card slot and it appears perfect. The phone has never been dropped or having liquid damage.
I did the factory reset, but could not get rid of the error. Unfortunately I just travelled to oversea...
AT&T agreed to replace the phone, but I will not have any phone on the road.
I am willing to try anything. Does not seem to be software related, but...
Anyone know how to fix the problem?
Thanks.
Hey. There us a thread about this just search for it... don't think they found a solution
Did this happen while your sim was still in the phone or after a removal and replace?

My 1717D stpped working too when I installed T-Mobile radio
I bought 1717D with Android 4.o.4 on it , Kernel 3.0.8-perf-1717DTLLF4-CL793911 and tryed to install T-Mobile modem to work with Mobilicity.Ufter this update phone doesnt recognize my SIM card any more.I Tryed all 3 modems with the same results, even though I did changed modem on two previous 1717 phones before.They were with 3.3.5. I thing The problem is in Gingrbred rom this pfone has.Where can I get original Yelus factory Rom ?One more thing is strange: it doesn't show any IMEI ,Baseband shows Unknown.
The phone has ics 4.0.4. I inserted a foreign sim card while traveling abroad and found "no sim" error. Then i switched back to the att sim and found with the same error. I shall say i always use the foreign sim while oversea and never had problem with this phone before. And i always power down, remove battery and then replace sim card.
I reflashed the ics radio and still no good. I can see the imei number in setting. But the baseband is unknown. I read almost all related posts and could not find a software fix.

"No SIM" just happened to me. I recently updated to the official JB stock ROM & Note worked great for about ten days... then just quit and displayed the "No SIM" error message. I first tried just shutting down, removing & cleaning SIM, replacing & rebooting. Nada. Then tried different, fully charged battery. Still no go. Still at home tried a factory reset, removing SIM, clean, & reboot. Gave up and went to an AT&T kiosk. Rep set me up with a new SIM and I'm back in business for two days now. Rep was quite philosophical, "it happens sometime." Still don't know why.
Hi, I have read, looked, read even more and I have not found one thing to help me with this.
After I rooted and tried the recovery everything was fine till I powered off and restarted, now the phone powers on and I am able to connect to wifi networks but my phone is saying that it can not connect to any mobile networks and seeing as I haven't seen a way to go back to stock. I was wondering if anyone could help because I have literally lost all hope with this phone.

Well, you're technically still on stock - root/CWM recovery changes a few system files but nothing that should corrupt the basic stock install. You hadn't installed Titanium and uninstalled anything else - correct?
Under Settings->Software Information do you see a baseband version reported?
What do you have under Settings->Network ?
Try taking the battery out for 30s and taking the SIM and rubbing the gold contacts (light cleaning) on a cloth or your shirt. Replace everything and power up.

I've taken out the battery and cleaned off everything. My network says Unknown, Mobile Network: Unknown, Mobile Network State; Disconnected. I've tried to connect to a network operator but it says my sim card is not allowed to do that. I've tried my sim card in friends phone and it works fine, but for some reason it just doesn't want to work on mine. My baseband version is LGP769AT-01-V10e-310=260-SEP-26-2012+0

If your phone can see networks and you getting 'not allowed' messages, you likely have a SIM problem. check with your carrier.

Sounds like a sim lock talk to your carrier

I have same problem in LG Optimus L9.
I already replaced SIM from Vodafone last 15 days back and today i have the same problem. Vodafone help centre are telling to chaneg the sim again. Is this handset issue?
Same problem, not a SIM card problem
I have the exact same problem.
It's not related to the SIM card as my SIM card works fine in another phone and another SIM card in my phone gives the same problem.
This happened me 2 months ago, I left the phone for dead and started using a spare on I have, a couple of weeks later I check again and it's all working perfectly, strange !
Comforting to see that I'm not the only one with this problem.
I've done a hard reset and that made no difference.
I have unlocked my i717 phone, sim card read fine on Family Mobile service powered by T-Mobile. Then rooted phone using Odin. removed apps I didnt like. after removing Kies air and a few other AT&T apps. I got the alert at the top area no sim | emergency calls only I turned phone off then back on same issue. I return phone to factory setting another issue also didnt use odin to unroot. however I did download full ICS file and used odin to unroot then wiped clean to factory setting. The issues with sim card not reading still remains. I do have another i717 and check with hardware change of sim card reader as well as checked sim card its self in another phone and it works fine.
check with local phone tech guy he said I might have an issue with IMEI change when doing the first root? he also told me to come here for help.
How can I check if this has happened?
How can I change it back?
How can I change it to work with my Family Mobile service powered by T-Mobile?
Thanks

Seldom an IMEI issue. It's typically fixed by replacing the sim holder/reader. Before you do that I would swap the readers and see how each behaves in a different phone. If the culprit reader does not work, $10 on eBay or so. Utube for video instruction-it's ez peasy. Lastly unless you really have to avoid removing and re-inserting the sim card. something about that makes my device nuts.

I have tried the swap of the current Sim readers assembly with another Sim reader I have. and both Sim readers assembly are reading great on another test phone. Being that the hardware cross testing is showing that the Sim card and Sim card reader are in fact working and not the issue. This has lead me to do more research on the IMEI issues along with a possible missing EFS/bin files?? I didnt backup my phone EFS/bin files before unlocking which can cause the issue with the Sim card reading I am having...? still not sure tho..
I have learned that the IMEI hasn't been changed like I had thought tho..its the numbers after the / in the IMEI are just software revision numbers to reflect the software version.
Does anyone have any ideas where I can get the missing EFA / bin files > nv.log > nv_data.bin > nv_data.bin.md5
My lg g5 dual sim variant recently stop detecting my sim card. Have not ejected sim tray for months and have checked through threads after threads for solution. Micro sd card is working though.
-Changed a new sim card
-sim reader( repaired by reputable shop)
-Did factory reset before repairing
Sometimes my phone detects the sim and starts rebooting. And follow with a rebooting loop until sim is ejected. Sometimes it detects the sims and my service provider but no calls, msgs and mobile network can be used.
Is there anything i can do? I love this phone.
Thanks!
