I've looked around for similar thread(s) but found nothing. I recently followed the instructions on this website-> "teambamf.net/index.php/topic/3528-guide-to-install-ics-ruu-and-firmware-windows/" and got the phone started up. Unfortunately since I'm not Verizon (T-mobile USA) I've been stuck at the "Activating" screen for hours now and it keeps saying "SIM card from unknown source". Any help to fix either (if not both of these problems) will be greatly appreciated.
P.S - tried rebooting several times and still stuck at the Activation screen after SIM from unknown source.
did you try to boot the phone up first without sim card? The phone by default is locked to cdma and you would have to manually change to gsm in order for it to work.
Try to boot up without SIM (and also any SD card. I had issue that my sd card has a rom in it and it won't let me to get any network data, so I had to erase the SD card and it work. So start without the sd card). Then setup the phone. Once it's setup, change the network to GSM and then shut down and put hte sim. See if this works.
I would suggest check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421341
also, is your sim already activated? I am not too sure if you can use rezound ot activate any sim. if it is not activate, try to activate with a diff phone first and then put in the rezound afterwards.

If you have Verizon and a Verizon branded phone and are getting this message, you need to contact customer support.

Have you tried this solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1882355
Otherwise, the Business Sense ROM is based on stock, and this will happen on all stock ROMs, but it should not effect actually using the device... It would be best to move to a CM or AOSP based ROM.

When I first got the phone both slots worked. I've rooted the phone and installed some things and may have broke something. SIM2 works but the other slot is broken. I'm on tmobile too.
Feiteng GT-A7100 "Mobile Network Not Available"
Oh, gosh, I'm really stuck. Tried two SIM cards (redpocket/att and spot/t) and either works. Sim cards work with
dumber phones. Really like this phone (ie cool android hardware) other than it won't work as a phone.
I also have suspicion about the IMEI. Bought from everbuying.com. please email vjp2 panix com because I dialup and don't
have broadband. But I will try to get back to forum if someone replies. The Phone sees the SIM card (ie, knows name, and some addresses).
I don't know about all those extra setting with initials (some it has, others not).
But it says the SIM card is disconnected. Took it outside, closer to cel towers. Is it possible the sim cards are too cheap.
I only want talk. I've seen doc this phone is 4 bands, others say 2 bands

i have same problem
1) I noticed one of my sim slots (sim 1) was not detecting the sim card. Error message was something like "no sim card" which is different than "no service". In examining the sim slot, one of the gold pins in the slot was not making contact with the sim card. I took a small safety pin and bent the pin slightly up.
** NOTE ** be careful bending this pin up. If you use too much force, you can snap the pin off and then you would be totally screwed.
I then reinserted the sim card and the phone detected it since the pins were now making contact with the sim card.
2) Another thing I noticed is sometimes I get "no service" even though other times I would get 4 bars of signal strength at the same location. I went to settings and disabled the sim card. Waited about 10 seconds and then re-enabled my sim card. It then seemed to reconnect with the phone network.
My carrier is TMobile.

How did you root? can i root my a7100 with armv7 processor device?

Hi guys
I have a big issue with my S3 GT I9300. This morning, everything was running well and suddenly i got the error message "No SIM card, insert a SIM card". I didn't try to flash any ROM, or put any root or something. I was on my desk, the phone was on the table and when i checked it a few minutes later : no network and SIM card error message...
Until now i was on I9300XXUFME3 ROM. I tried to clean the sim card, the sim card slot, push the sim card while the phone was turning on (maybe it wasn't touching correctly the pin), but still getting the same issue. My IMEI is OK, still the original one (no 00 or 0049, etc).
That's why i decided ot flash a orginal ROM and flashed my phone to I9300XXUGMJ9. Flash is OK but still getting the network issue (no sim card inserted)..
I couldn't try my phone with an other SIM as I was alone at the office but i guess the issue comes from the phone as my SIM card is not old at all (i have it for 6 months only) and I don't remove it often from the phone.. Until this morning, my phone (bought it from someone 6 months ago= was working perfectly and I didn't flash it since May 2013, so I don't really understand..
I also tried Ariza's patch (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601) but when I press "Apply fix", it starts downloading and stays at 0%.. Nothing seems to be downloading.
Any help would be very greatful guys, thank you.. :crying:
Don't go flash crazy, you'll do more damage with that patch.
Sounds like your sim card reader is faulty, not an expensive item to have repaired.

Hello,
I just went to an Orange store here in Paris and the issue was simply a deffective SIM card.. They replaced it by a new one and got the issue fixed
Thanks a lot guys for your kind help!
Hi guys, i have similar problem, i tried different sim cards, none worked, tried changing the whole card reader with a brand new one, but it didn't fix the problem.
everything started approximately a month ago, or even more, i tried rooting the phone after applying the update but i missed up and almost killed the hone, after allot of effort i managed to bring it back to life and re-installed the firmware update, but the phone started giving me the "Not registered on network" error, and the IMEI changed to that 0049 thing, then it started telling me to insertsim card.
the thing is, before all this happens I had no idea how to important it is to backup, so I have no EFS backup
so, any ideas what could be the cause? and how to fix it?
HELLO i have recently installed andriod 4.3 I9300XXUGMK6 everything succesfull but now when the phone booted network is not working its saying insert sim when the sim is already inserted i have reset the phone and put sim back but stilll showing the same thing please help me

did you cut the sim to micro sim size manually? if yes than check the contact ppoints.
if it was already micro sim when you bought than something might be wrong by hardware side.
Hello
I recently got a new sim card for my dual-sim j5 prime, upon inserting my sim in the 2nd sim slot I got a 'Phone not allowed' error in my notification bar and 'network not registered' when I try to dial something with my sim. The interesting part is that the sim attached to slot 1 is completely fine and works without a problem. For this reason I tested my new sim in slot 1 and it worked perfectly.
So this seems like a problem with my sim card slot. I tried restarting but it didn't help. Can any one please help we fix this issue?
