I've seen this twice today. Look at my phone and I don't have service, shows no SIM card. A reboot fixes it, tried pulling the SIM and putting it back in, didn't work. Anyone else see this?

Could be a defective sim card. I think most carriers replace them for free.

Well, just an update. Took it to the VZW store this morning as I had a message on the lock screen "PUK locked, contact customer support". They replaced the SIM card at the store, and away I went. About an hour later, bam, no SIM card error again. Took it back to the store and they replaced the device and got yet another SIM card with that phone. Been 4 hours now with no problems. Hopefully all is good now...
I had the exact same problem and after a SIM card swap I've not seen any issues.

I've been having no SIM card error also, I just put it in and out of airplane mode to reset

Exact same thing happened to me for the first time today. Missed several phone calls because of it. They didn't even go to my voicemail; callers got a message that I couldn't be located. Had to reboot phone to get service.

Ugh... NOOOOOOO!!! My 2nd DNA almost made it a week. Got the "No SIM card" error again today.... WTF?! I'm hoping this is just a software issue that will be resolved soon.. **Fingers Crossed* no PUK error yet...
Mine just did it for the first time (got it 2 days ago). Restarted it to fix. Hoping that it doesn't happen again... fingers crossed!

Well, I guess that means your first one didn't make it a week either, considering the release date was less than 10 days ago.
I had the SIM Card error happen to me again yesterday morning, also. Unfortunately, I don't think keeping this phone is in my foreseeable future. To be quite honest, to the naked eye, I really can't see a visable difference between this phones screen, and the S3's screen anyways. Even the Maxx HD for that matter. Next, because of the lack of an external SD card, and capped off with an unremovable battery, these basic features that are lacking have sold me on a pass of the DNA. Yesterday, I was on the road, and my battery died around 6PM (~10 hours). Usually, I could swap a battery at this time and keep going. Instead, I was swapping my SIM card TO ANOTHER PHONE just to keep going. That's when I realized I can't keep using the DNA as a reliable business tool.
Sorry HTC, you missed the mark on this gorgeous device. So close. Like putting snow tires on a Ferrari...
It happened to me twice ''No SIM card" error.

I had this issue a few times in the beginning as well. Took the phone to the Verizon store and they couldn't make heads or tails of it. I popped the sim out, gave it a cleaning with an eraser, and popped it back in, pushing it in as hard as I could with my thumb and haven't had the issue since.
I noticed that it happened a lot if I were to bang on the top of the phone, sort of like packing a pack of cigarettes. It was almost like the SIM card wasn't all the way in and when the phone got jarred a little, the sim would move just enough to cause the error.
My wife and I both have the DNA. She has been having the no SIM card problem for a couple of days. Just swapped the sim card today at a Verizon store, hoping the problem goes away.

Unfortunately, I've tried that. I've had a SIM card error pop up in the middle of the nite while it's on it's charging pad without touching it.
mine has done it a couple times, but usually when I'm in an area for a period of time where it's struggling to get signal. Like at my house when the weather was poor and it was usually on 0-2 bars is when it happened the first time, then when I was in town some place for a while where there were a lot of other phones and signal usually shows 3-4 bars, but still has poor connectivity is when it happened the second time.
OK question for those that have gotten the error, did you happen to change your preferred network from Global to LTE/CDMA? Reason I asked was because this is the only thing I remember changing about 5-7 hours prior to seeing the error message on both DNA's. I changed back to Global, popped the SIM card out and back in, and haven't had an error since Friday now. And it was bad Friday, probably happened 6-7 times.

I was just testing a different SIM card, and as I put the original Verizon SIM card back in, for some odd reason it got locked automatically.
The Verizon store is only 5 minutes away by walking from my location, so I went there and asked for the PUK code.
But as the clerk tried retrieving the PUK, she said it is yet to be available for confirmation and that it will take approximately one to two weeks...and I have to leave the device with them since they don't know why the SIM card has no PUK provided.
I just told them to email me once the PUK is ready and brought my phone back. I had accidentally locked my phone with a South Korean carrier before but as for that incident, a simple reset to the whole system got the job done. But this is the first time I have ever had a SIM card from Verizon, so I don't know if there are other ways to unlock the SIM card lock or reset it
Does anyone have a solution? Thanks
Mine did this without removing the SIM, completely locked up on me, this was after I was getting "No SIM card" errors. Verizon tried replacing the SIM card first, but it locked up again before I got out of the store. So they just DOA'd the phone and gave me a new one with new SIM card. Haven't had another issue.

Same thing was happening to me...brought it to Verizon and they gave me the "bad batch of Sims from old supplier line"...they replaced the sim and I haven't had the issue since.

When I bought mine the sim card in the phone would not activate. So they had to give me a new one right away.
I'm starting to get the no sim errors. We will see how it goes from here

I work for Verizon and have heard of a few customers with the no sim error. For the most part just pulling it out, cleaning it, and putting it back in fixed it. As far as the OP the experience you described is extremely weird. Please tell me you didn't give them your phone and you are without. That would be really sucky and pointless IMO. Generally the PUK can be retrieved through customer care. In my experience it is much easier and way faster to just swap out the sim for a new one so that is what I do for customers. Any corporate Verizon should replace a sim for you for free upon request. If they are ever weird about it just walk outside, pull out your sim, throw it on the ground and go back in saying you lost your sim card. lol
Thanks for the concerns, but I already solved the issue on November 28th by simply replacing the SIM card. Strange strange stuff...

Lucky lucky you! I'm on my 2nd DNA and 5th SIM Card! And they have a new phone on it's way to my house to try again! The brand new SIM I activated yesterday lasted 3 hours before it dropped out with ,"No SIM Card"; error. I love this phone but it does me no good if I'm not receiving calls and texts........
UPDATE 1/5/13: The 3rd phone that Verizon has sent me seems promising! 13 days without the slightest hitch in my giddy-up! So far so good which makes me happy because I really like this phone. Strange how many issues I had with the other two phones though........... we'll see.

Koi baat hahin
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.
Ok guys i know there are a few threads already created for this error, however; I haven't seen a solution yet, So i'm creating this thread in hopes that we can compile all the information about this, and maybe find a solution,
Here's the story, I bought an Unlocked Galaxy note SGH-i717D on ebay about a year ago, the phone was working like a charm and it loved it , then a few months later i started getting a "NO SIM Inserted" error message.
The SIM card was pretty old so I went to my carrier and changed it. That seemed to do the trick and it worked fine until a few weeks ago, when the damn error showed up again. I'm literally getting this error message every day, making the phone impossible to use.
I've tried EVERYTHING:
1- I ruled out the SIM card being faulty since it's new and it works on other phones
2- Made sure the SIM was making contact with the pins
3- Put Scotch tape on the SIM to make it fit better on the SIM slot
3- Deleted cache
4- Rooted my phone and installed titanium backup to delete all user and system app cache
5- flashed the original rom back into my phone
Nothing seems to work (the titanium backup method works for a few hours/days) so please if any of you know the solution to this issue please let me know.
I highly appreciate any help!
Sim card slots go bad some times. A samsung repair shop can replace it in minutes.
mine went out. i havent paid any attention to it. ive noticed alot of notes have this.

yup i've read a lot about it, it doesn't seem to be a problem with the hardware, cuz it works fine when I delete the cache, i've read it has to do with the 3g/4g band the phone is working with, that may cause the issue, but then again nobody's been able to confirm this.
Having the same problem.
No SIM
Baseband: Unknown
IMEI: Unknown
Can't restore with KIES.
Mine was under warranty so I just returned it for an exchange. Got a new SIM, no changes. A factory reset fixed it for a short period.

So I rooted my phone and installed titanium backup like i mentioned on my first post, there's an option on Titanium backup called CLEAR cache for all user and system apps, that seems to do the trick at least for a few hours and some time days.
Sounds like what you guys may need is the sim card port replacement. whatever you do do not send your phone to samsung if you arent under warranty, you will be broke when your done with them. the part is 7$ including shipping on ebay, you can type in sim card port to find it. it is very easy to install, if you dont feel comfortable you can bring it to a shop.

My phone have the same problem. But is the t-mobile note (sgh-t879). Can I use this parts for fix my phone?
You can easily find the parts for the tmobile version too. Ebay is where I start looking for parts.
Hi i am having the same issue on my Galaxy Note i717R (Canadian Version - originally from Rogers Network) , would appreciate if you could share a solution with me too .
This happened on my i717 just after warranty ran out (of course). It first started off with losing the use of 4g so I couldnt make calls and only could use lte data. Then the radio would stop working and nothing worked. I then restarted my phone and no sim card inserted error. Eventually it would work again but last night I was using the phone and data with no problem but nothing can fix the error today. I'm stuck using the desire HD unless I can figure this out.

No solution so far
I've had this same problem. Reset system and use caches with Titanium Backup but this didn't last. Reset to the original ROMs (Samsung update to Android 4.1 ) did not help. Finally I bought and replace the sim and microsdcard reader (which was remarkably easy to do), This didnt help either. Anyone have a solution?

WTF? it seems like its a software issue then, this is so weird! I read somewhere that it may be the band the phone works with, I'm in Costa Rica so the 3g, 4g bands that we use here may be a bit different and could be causing the problem, then again i know NOTHING about cell phone band frequencies....
This is what's been working for me, I delete cache using titanium back up and then leave the phone off through the night, this method seems to work for a a few weeks maybe a month and when i get the error message again i repeat the process. Also make sure the pins on the sim tray are touching the sim card I noticed on my phone they were a little low so i took a needle and lift them up a bit.
Anyways I really got sick of the error, so I'm changing the sim card tray, if that doesn't work I'm getting rid of this phone.
replaced sim tray and problem is still there...wtf

I was having the same problem. The error would hapoen 10+ times a day sometimes.
I replaced the sim card reader, stil happened. Flashed new rom and modem, didn't fix thr problem.
Started rooting around, thought that maybe the piece of case that sits under the leading edge of the sim card lifts it up, occasionally breaking sim contact when it flexed.
Took a screwdriver and bent the three contacts out some more, now it only happens occasionally.
I think I may be onto something here.

Are you using a full-size sim or a small sim inserted in an adaptor? I have had issues with the small sim.
Don't quote, reply. If you quote, edit.
was using a micro then switched to a full size sim...it actually fried the first full size sim then had to go back to tmobile to get another one..it seems the bottom of the sim tray seems to lift up on the bottom...

I have two DNAs. One has a severely cracked screen and the other has a sim card problem. It does not recognize when a sim card is inserted. However, this phone used to never have this problem. I was on the a different phone for the last 6 month and just went back to the DNA. Help?
SOMEONE ANSWER MY QUESTION:cyclops:
I had a similar problem when I first got my DNA. Difference was that the phone would every so often read "New SIM card detected" which I think was incorrect spacing I suppose. I finally called HTC as Verizon was not doing anything and they sent me a new SIM tray saying that would fix it. I think maybe it has happened twice since and it has been over a year since I got the tray. Hope this helps you.
