I have a galaxy gear S but unable to use the phone features. If I restart, I see it is connected but after a while, it says, insert SIM card.
Anyone seen this issue?
Thanks in advance
Ask your carrier for a new SIM card. It should be free.

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?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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?
Previously phones did not require a restart each time a sim card was taken out or changed, why is it that now each time we pull a sim card out or change a sim card that we have to restart the device? This is rather annoying!
Hello.
Is there a way to use a second sim card as a default card in a phone with dual sim? I want to use messaging app which doesn't support dual sim, but I can't physically switch cards.
The first card is used for data connection and the second one for texts and calls.
Best regards,
grunai.
edit:
I have found the solution but using paid app so I will post it if I can
Hi Folks,
Any idea on how to get rid of the encircled icon? Or at least, what is the name of this icon to help me search more. I don't have a second SIM card and I really didn't want to get a dual SIM handset but in my region only the dual SIM model is offered. So I've got this dual SIM phone with a single SIM card and the now none-sense icon.
Thanks in advance.
Since I could not figure out how to send a picture, I will explain. I have inserted a single SIM card in a dual SIM handset. Fortunately the phone is not showing any icons pertaining to the absent SIM card 2. But still it shows a SIM card icon with "1" in it designating that SIM card 1 is present. This is none-sense to me and I would like it to go. I want directions for doing this. I searched, but found nothing and even have no idea what this icon may be called to do some further search.
I'm using Marshmallow.
Thanks.
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.
