actually i had a nano sim and moto e accepts micro so i made out a plastic peice cutout to insert with my sim
the problem is it didn't even work and when i pulled it back the nano sim came out but not the plastic peice
now what do you suggest i should do
my moto e is rooted and xposed so no warranty i guess
should i remove the screws and try that way or should i take it to customer care and pay them for repairing. plus the customer care is very far from my home
plz help fast
Well if anyone is wondering what happened
A piece of advice : don't do it
I have a single sim moto e because of my foolishness
Use a adapter or if something like this happens go to service center

can anyone suggest a good extended/external antenna behind the back cover for x10 as there are some places where i have to work and none of my 3 phones give me any coverage except for x10 somehow shows one bar which also goes away sometimes
but nokia n82 n nokia n97 sucks down there
oh and i am using ATT as netwrk provider in usa california
BUMP...nyone??
why not try generation X antenna boosters? It's a strip that goes between the simcard and the contacts on the phone. I haven't used it, but friends claim it works really well.

between simcard n contacts?
it's a thin flexible strip that goes between the simcard and the contacts (metal connections) on the phone where sim card is housed.
=================== <-- sim card
//////////////////////////// <-- antenna strip
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM <sim card contact soldered on the motherboard.

How does it work? much improve?
Hi, today while inserting sim card(with some force ofcourse as it was not going in easily), sim card stuck there and after half an hour hard work, I was able to pull the sim out. After that everytime I inserted the sim, phones says no Sim Card
I figured out that one of the sim slot pin is broke and its not properly making any contact with the part of sim.
So, I wanted to know if anybody faces the same issue and whether they have contacted the Sony Service center and any estimation of cost to be incurred in repair.
Or anyone got their phone repaired by simply soldering the Sim Slot on the motherboard as when I disassembled the phone, I found that the sim slot is soldered on the motherboard.
Any suggestions???
I guess that you could do this:
1. Resoldering
Remove all the cover. Separate everything from the motherboard.
Desolder the SIM slot. Get a old SIM slot from a old phone(Or just get it somehow). Then Solder it, wait for it the dry and reassemble.
2. Turning the warped contact back.
Do the same steps as step 1. Then use a tweezer and gently twist the contacts back. But be careful, it may end up worse.
3. Give it to Sony
Only do this if it is still under warranty. Replacement of motherboard is very expensive,to the extent you would rather buy a new phone.
They will most likely replace the whole motherboard.. The price of the motherboard is approximately 80% of the whole phone normally. Backup your data first.
Last one
Buy a new phone. But first you must be loaded.
Hope it helps!
I pushed in my nano to micro SIM converter in the slot without the actual SIM in it.
Seems the pins are not angled on both sides since I had a really hard time pulling the converter out. And when I managet to get it out I saw the pings are not even, some were pulled up a bit...
I pushed the SIM after and it works, but it really is an effort to do it. And to get the SIM out I really need a tweezers.
Also the carriage that comes with the tablet is not good anymore for getting the SIM out
Anyone knows how much will it cost me to get it repaired? I still have guarantee for half an year left...
Or atleast if I can find replacement carriage?

look on ebay for spare sim tray, or sim slot.
Is it possible to cut down a micro sim to nano sim and will it fit the sim cradle? (nano sim thiiner than micr sim?)
It is possible, but not recomended. Also the nano sim is a bit tinner and this needs some extra work.
You'll risk getting it jammed inside the device and damaging it. It's totally not worth it.
i cutted my micro sim to nano sim
working perfectly
Try that :

Thanks for the advice. I'll finally decide when it arrives!
I've also cut my nano sim with scissors.. worked much better than i expected
Cut 2 sims today used a sim adapter to get the correct place to cut , both work perfectly

Yesterday I went to local mobile store and they cut mine from micro to nano free of charge, but I had to agree that the process might ruin the sim card Works like a charm and I saved 5euro for the new sim card from carrier.

I cut down my work sim from micro to nano to fit in the OPX, just used my main sim as a template and kept checking it in the sim tray till it fitted.
So far no problems and comes out and back in again easily
Let it cut with a nano sim cutter in a mobile store, then use a nail file or emery board to make it a bit thinner and round the edges. Worked for me and doesn´t cost a cent. If it goes wrong, you can order a nano sim anyway.
basically i thought to do this, but i can't afford 3 days w/o calls if i ruin my micro sim so ordered my nano sim
the thing i'm reticent is IF i had to go back to old phone, i could not be able to use micro sim
let it cut by local rip-off mobile store for 5€. well at least it works and was less expensive than a new card from the carrier for 15€.
Cutted mine (using scissors), no problem...
Cutted mine with a bought sim cutter,works perfect
Just messed up the SIM slot on my XT1526, thanks to Nano/Micro SIM adapter which I had to use, got lodged in there, yanked it, now the pins are bent in there.
Any chance of opening/replacing the SIM slot (or pushing the pins back in place). Phone was 2 days old.
