sim card missing

[bornwild]

Hey guys,

I just bought a Tilt and have this 'sim card missing' problem. At times I've been able to get the sim card working but after a reset the problem is there again and no way to fix it.

I've tried putting a piece of paper there and everything but it just doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Using 1.65.24.36 radio and HD_III_Omnia_WWE with a 3.29 SPL....

It's driving me nuts fellas. Please help...

Also a picture of how to place the piece of paper would be appreciated as I have no other solution. Cheers guys

You should have posted this in the older thread.

I'm pretty desperate here mate. All the other threads have a solution which involved putting a piece of paper in there.

I'd like to know where to put the piece of paper(maybe I'm going wrong?) and also whether there are some other possible solutions.

Well then maybe post your question in the thread that has discussed it.

So, some updates.

I've gotten my network to work(which confirms it isn't a hardware issue)...but as soon as I soft-reset it it will say "sim card missing" again....it might be on the 1st reset or on the 3rd etc.

Using L26v12 FULL rom and I've tried 3 radios so far and all have the same problem.

Is it the L26 ROM causing the problem or...?

I don't know if this might help, it's more of a marginal remark to your problem:
When i got my kaiser, stock rom didn't read my sim at all - reason for it was the sim card was older then 2004 (or so).
I got a new one from my provider and it worked perfectly (fairly simple/fast/cheap procedure, at least concerning my provider)
Dunno, but maybe the SIM architecture has issues with different roms, similar to this issue of mine.

Okay, this has been resolved. Today I bought a new SIM card from my provider for $4 and that solved the problem.

You were right brokenlute, it's a compatibility issue between the device and the SIM card. What amazes me though, is why it worked periodically at all?!?!?!

This has been resolved!

I feel much better now :)

This is why AT&T will make everyone replace their SIM card if they try to do an equipment upgrade with a SIM older then 24 months.

Probably, no AT&T in Australia though :)
