[Q] SIM tray repair

I have a Media pad s7 with a broken sim tray. I was using a sim adapter to change a mini sim to full size sim and it got stuck when I was trying to remove it, so sadly the bit of extra force needed, damaged to sim tray and it now has broken contacts. Does anyone know where I can send it for repair. There does not sem to be a service centre in Australia so I would be happy to send it to any other country for repair.
Thanks

My SIM tray is also broken, but not my fault. The service made me an offer 380 US $ .. i think it is cheaper to buy an other device.
For me ..no more Huawei

Sim error invalid sim issue

Hi anyone experienced this?
I experienced this when I tried to remove my sim but the sim got stuck and I had to use some force.
Now it won't read sim anymore come up with sim error and sim card invalid. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
What should I do surely it's defective ? I applied bit of force not enough to break it or damage it.
You could try if it accepts someone else's SIM card and check if it accepts that card. And you could try your SIM card in another phone. But from the looks of it it does look like you did break the SIM or the SIM slot. It is possible that the card getting stuck actually was getting stuck on one of the pins and it might be out of place now.
If it is actually a defect in the phone I fear you will have to take it to a shop to get it repaired.
In the end returned it and bought Note 2 LTE. Good move glad I did it.

I had the same issue and took the phone back to Rogers. They replaced it for me with a brand new one.

pins on the SIM slot broke please help!

While removing a stuck SIM, the pin at the edge seems to be broken and now it wont recognize any SIM cards.
I found replacement parts online but anyone have any ideas on how to replace this??
Any help would be appreciated.
nearest phone service should be able to do it...
or you can buy the slot on ebay

[Q] Micro SIM Query

Hey y'all ! :laugh:
I have ordered Moto E and expecting delivery till tomorrow !
The only thing I am left pondering over is how am I supposed to put my Normal SIM cards Airtel n Vodafone in Micro SIM slots ?
How you guys did this ? Did u cut it yourself or took it to shopkeeper n he cut it for you ??
Here's an advice that I didn't follow and hence you should.
Go to some shopkeeper and let him do it.
I ordered a micro sim cutter with adapter from eBay thinking it's costing around 150 bucks only and will be helpful in future too.
It damaged my sim. I had to take a replacement.
My dad owns a moto G and he got it done from a nearby recharge shop. His is perfectly done.

Need help!! do i use old or new sim on BNIB GS5?

I had taken out the sim card on my galaxy s5 to sell it. The phone was stolen, I reported it, got a brand new in box replacement from Assurant. I had already bought an LG G3 and had my old sim card in it. So the brand new GS5 came with a new sim card. Do i have to activate the GS5 with new sim card and then remove sim before selling it? or can I activate the GS5 with the old sim card, then take out that sim and put it back into my LG G3.... and then sell the GS5?

If the phone hasn't been opened yet, just leave it alone. It'll have more value if you don't mess with it. If your G3 works with the old sim card, tmobile didn't do anything to it and it'll likely keep working. Worst case if it stops working, go to tmobile and ask for another sim card for free.
Don't open the S5 box unless you want to lose resale value.

^ What he said with one caveat. If your new, replacement S5 isn't in a factory sealed box, take a moment to turn the S5 on and see if the SIM it came with is active on your account, More than likely it's a new and unused SIM that you could resell. But the occasional, proactive carrier might have reprogrammed a SIM for you and inserted it in the phone already.
Otherwise, as already suggested. If you want to sell the replacement S5, leave it intact, including the blank SIM. You already have a working SIM (your old SIM) in the G3 you intend to keep. You shouldn't need to activate the S5 if you are going to sell it.
