Does anyone have "No sim card" message after upgrading to iOS 7.0.2 on an iPhone 4 ?

Hello,
I've upgraded my iPhone 4 (8 GB model - GSM) to the new iOS 7.0.2 version yesterday evening and strangely enough he restarted fine, but with the "no SIM card" message. After having pulled out and put back in the micro SIM card several times without success, I've restored the iPhone completely to the 7.0.2 update, but the problem still lasted.
I've personally solved the issue by downloading the original 7.0.0 IPSW file and forcing iTunes to restore it: push on Option/Command key while clicking on the restore button in iTunes after putting the iPhone in DFU mode by pressing the Home button when powering on . After the restore everything works fine again and I had just to unlock my Sim Card the regular way in order to activate.
Therefore I'm wondering if anyone else has also encountered this problem and if someone could explain me the origin of this issue.
I'm living in Belgium (Europe) and using Belgacom Proximus as carrier.
Best regards,

Hi MajorChipHazard,
Did my solution work for you ?

Does anyone have problems with Pages since the upgrade to iOS 8?

The app take very long to open, crash regularly and do weird things with images. It's becoming very annoying because I work all the time with Pages and keep going between other apps and my document. I hope somebody knows about this problem at Apple and is doing something about it.

Just a reply to let you know you're not alone. I'm getting numerous crashes on all iWork apps in iOS 8 on both my iPad and iPhone. I'm not sure if it's a device level software problem or related to the move to iCloud Drive. I just deleted and reinstalled all the iWork apps in hopes the crashes cease. I'll post back in a few days.
It may just be bugs in this initial release of iOS 8. I expect we will see an update within the next few weeks.

Verizon will only unlock your phone for international use.
Just to avoid any possible confusion, a Verizon-model iPhone 4 is a CDMA-only iPhone and can't be unlocked at all. The only way to use that model with another carrier is if Verizon has international CDMA carrier partners for international roaming, available only a very few countries.
Only the Verizon-model iPhone 4S or later is or can be unlocked for true international use.

TS3276 Does anyone have problems with sent messages not showing in their Mail? I have two sent folders when really I only want one. Any tips?

Not sure if this is a fix, but I tried sending myself a test email from only the Bcc field, and lo and behold it now shows the Bcc field in all sent item previews;
...maybe leaving the 'To' field blank on purpose forced Mail to show it.
Rebooted the Mail program, still there - rebooted the machine, still there. Hope this is still relevant and it works for you too - J.

There is not Sim card message after restoring iphone

there is not Sim card message after restoring iphone

There is not a SIM card or the SIM card is not supported?

I have lost my iPad and would like to block it from being reregistered. It is a wifi only and does not have a sim card. I did not sign up for any tracking software either. Can apple block the serial number?

No.
Apple can do nothing.
You cannot block it from being "registered".
If you did not set up find my ipad before it was lost, then there is nothing you can do but change your passwords.

Why does the ipad 2 speaker stopped working after upgrading to ios 8

WWhy does the iPad 2 speaker stopped working after upgrading to ios 8 why plz respond

Hi A_S85,
It appears your iPhone has an issue relating to sound. The following article may help you find a solution:
If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support
Can't hear anything from the built-in speaker of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch? Maybe you can hear, but the sound is distorted, muffled, intermittent. Or maybe you hear static or crackling noises. If your iOS device has any of these issues, follow these steps.
Follow these steps and test the sound after each one.
Go to Settings > Sounds and drag the Ringer And Alerts slider to turn the volume up.
If you can hear sound from the speaker, then the speaker works. Continue with these steps to find the setting or switch that's affecting the sound. If you can't hear sound from the speaker, contact Apple Support.
Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is set to ring. If you can see orange, it's set to silent.
Restart your device.
Open an app that has music or sound effects. Adjust the volume with the volume buttons or the slider in Control Center.
Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn off Bluetooth.
If there's still no sound, connect a headset. If you can hear sound through the headset, remove it and clear any dust or debris from the headset jack of your device.
If the device is in a case, make sure that the case doesn't block the speaker.
Use a brush to gently clear any debris from the speaker and Lightning connector (or 30-pin dock connector). The brush should be clean and dry and have soft bristles.
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
If you followed these steps and still hear no sound or distorted sound, contact Apple Support.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

HT3406 Is it possible to convert a Verizon iphone 4 (CDMA) to an ipod touch since it does not have a SIM card?

I am looking to upgrade to the iphone 5 this year, but want to convert my iphone 4 to an ipod touch. All the instructions mention how to do it with a SIM card, but there is no SIM card with the Verizon model. Is there a way to convert it without a SIM card?

"No sim card installed" after updating to iOS 7.0.3

Hi,
Updated my iPad 2 to iOS 7.0.3 yesterday evenening and am now stuck with an iPad that doesn't recognize the sim anymore. I've already gotten a brand new sim card from my carrier, but that doesn't seem to work either.
At this moment I'm trying to put it back to factory settings, hoping that will work.
Any of you any other brilliant suggestions? Or experiencing the same problem?

Thanks, but I just did the first... and it hasn't worked. And I live in the Netherlands where we don't have a official apple store (yet) with genius bar... Have to solve this the hard way.

I cannot use my iPhone to make calls or send text messages after upgrading to ios 7

I just upgraded to ios7 and I can no longer make calls or send text messages. The screens seem to be locking. Does anyone know what I can do to fix it?

My wife is having the exact same issue after updating to the new iOS 8.1.1 and we've tried all the same steps even restoring the phone as a new phone. We've contacted our service provider and they've told us to go to apple to potentially "remove" her serial number from their servers to allow it to work properly on the service we have. We are desperate as purchasing a new phone right now is not an option and she desperately needs her phone for work and life.

Help! Recurrent "activation required" message after upgrade to iOS 8.1

Hello,
I recently upgraded to iOS 8 (directly from iOS 7 to version 8.1). Ever since, my phone keeps giving me a message saying "Activation Required" (see images). I am able to activate my phone normally, if I'm logged in to iCloud I have to enter my e-mail and password every time (so I logged off from iCloud for now).
The problem is:
- This happens at least 10 times a day, even more.
- The phone can only be activated on wifi (3G and LTE never work, although the phone gives me the option to try these)
- When the activation is required and if I don't have wifi to do it, the phone is completely blocked - I can't get out of the activation page, no way to see my home screen or access any of the apps, not even the camera, nothing!
I've taken it to Apple store and first they told me to delete everything and start as a new phone. It didn't work. Then I went again and they did a "full delete" (a different way of resetting my phone as a new phone) and installed iOS 8.1 from one of their computers, which they said was different from doing it from my computer. The guy was sure he had solved my problem, but I got the activation message a few hours later.
Now Apple tells me it's a problem with my carrier. My carrier, of course, says this is a problem with the phone.
I don't know what to do! The phone is less than 1 year old and I had no plans to buy a new one in the next year or so...
Does anyone has the same messages?
Does anyone has an idea why my phone is asking for activation so often??
Any help will be appreciated!
Julia.
iPhone 5
iOS 8.1

I'm still having the same problem. I've been going to the Apple Store every week. I was able to talk to someone in my carrier store (Fido Canada) and the guy was really nice, he really tried everything, changed settings of the network, changed the IMEI number in their system (my iPhone has been replaced and their system still showed the old IMEI number). I went back a couple hours later and he had really done a lot of research and talked to people. The phone was ok for a couple of hours, but then asked for activation again.
I went to the Apple Store genius bar last week (4th or 5th time), I was ready to get a new phone but the guy told me he had found the issue. My phone was not registered with the carrier, where it should say "Fido Canada", it was empty. He was able to change that (network "elevation" or "escalation" or something like that), he checked again and it had been changed to Fido. The phone was working great for 4 or 5 hours this time, but then the activation screen came back. :-(
I don't know what to do anymore. I'm SURE it's not a problem with my phone, but it's a configuration issue, either with the carrier network or the software, but no one seems to know what to do!
Going back to the Apple Store this wednesday, hope someone will be able to figure this out!

I cannot see all mobile phone numbers in Messages after upgrade to iOS 6

I have two mobile number entries for most of my contacts, for example:
+853 1234 5678
0060 853 1234 5678
The first entry is for dialing the mobile number when I am overseas, and need to use the international prefix "+". I also use this for sending SMS messages or iMessage.
The second entry is pre-entered to use 0060 as the international prefix when dialling long distance from my home country; this enables me to enjoy lower long-distance rates.
I have since upgraded to iOS 6, and now have a major problem. When I go into Messages and start a new message, I cannot select the number "+853 1234 5678" to send my message. It only shows "0060 853 1234 5678", and of course, this cannot be used to send messages. This seems to me that iOS 6 is not distinguishing the above two entries as two unique numbers. In other words, the "prefix" does not count. However, if I change the "0060 853 1234 5678" to "0060 853 1234 6787", then I can see both numbers in Messages (since then, both numbers are unique).
I have since found out through trial and error that if I list the numbers in my contacts page in the reverse order, that is:
0060 853 1234 5678 and then
+853 1234 5678
then, I can see +853 1234 5678 but not the first entry. It seems that the first entry in the contact list is overriden by subsequent entries of the same mobile number.
This was not a probem in iOS 5. Any fix for this matter in iOS 6?

tanks for ur help. it is sms. I have contacted my service providers and they said there is no issue with my messages. so I believe something is wrong with the fone.
