5s sim card data

I'm making a straight exchange of one 5s for another through the carrier. Will a reset erase sim card data, or do I swap them out?

There's very little data on the SIM. But, unless there's something wrong with the SIM, just take the SIM out of the old one and put it in the new one.

Transfering SIM Card data to new phone?

Hi,
I was wondering if my SIM card holds all my addressbook data? I have just purchased a 6085 and want to transfer the data from my 6061 to my new phone. Will it all be in my SIM card or do I have to re-enter the contents of my old phone data manually to my new one?
Thanks!

The 6061 doesn't appear to have any connectivity with the outside. No connection to a computer, no bluetooth etc.
The only way you have of saving yourself any time is to copy your contacts to the SIM card if they're not already there. You can find the commands to do all of this in the "Contacts" menu.
This also assumes that there's enough room on the SIM for all of your numbers. Most SIMs are limited to 200 or 250 numbers, and if you have contacts with multiple numbers (home, mobile, work etc.) they will use up as many slots as there are numbers for those contacts.
Once everything is copied to your SIM, you can insert that SIM into the new phone and most of your data will be accessible. I say "most" because details other than straightforward phone numbers will not have been transferred since the mechanisms on a SIM cannot store them.

After researching this topic, I found the placing an old SIM card in a new iPad would be impossible. There is no way for consumers to remove the back cover... Without dropping it off a building. My best suggestion: Use the current plan up first. Then buy a new plan.

Synchronize SIM card data

1) I can't succeed in synchronizing data which are stored on my SIM card. I can see only data which are stored on my telephone. Is it normal ?
2) I want to synchronize Outlook contacts with my telephone. But there are too many data in Outlook ? How can I work out ? Can I synchronize with a specific folder or by selecting data ?
Thanks for you help.
Denis

you need to copy the data (phonebook, sms) to the phone to finish sync.

Pay as you go sim card data not working while roaming

Hi. I just boughan A1 abroadband sim card and it has a very cool offer : paying 0.59 euros per 1 mb in over 50 countries in the world.
Up to now fine. The only problem is when I put it into my UNLOCED iPhone 4 it connects to the cellular data network. I can see 3g or E next to my roaming carrier. The problem is when I try to actually use the internet I get a popout message saying that I do not have a data subsription and the data network could not be activated. Of course I do not have a data subsription it is a pay as you go card ! I've contacted the carrier and they told me there is nothing wrong with their network and I was told to contact apple since they might ahave a problem with the hardware settings. Help anyone ?

Not having problems with their network tells you nothing that is of any help.
Call them and ask: "Does your A1 Roaming SIM work with an Apple iPhone 4 (or substitute whatever model you have) running iOS 4.3.3.? Have you tested it?" If they say no then it is possible this SIM won't work with your iPhone. Return it and get your money back.

I got the same message.
I bought an iPhone 5 at full retail price from an AT&T store. I requested the phone to be unlocked through their unlock portal. The AT&T unlock system asked for the IMEI number, a copy of my receipt showing that I bougth the phone at "No Commitment" price. A few hours later I received a message from AT&T stating that the unlock request was approved. I then followed the instructions to back up the phone and restore it through Itunes. The phone activates normally with the AT&T SIM card. But when I insert my VODAFONE SIM I get the massage "THE SIM CARD... etc.
I tried again to back up & restore the phone 3 or 4 times, no success. I have also allowed 24 hours for the unlock process to complete. Still no luck.
I have checked again on the AT&T Unlock Status portal and it shows "Unlock approved".
Where is the issue here? Do I have to call Apple or return the phone to AT&T and get the unlocked phone through the Apple Store?
Thanks for any help on this.

E71 importing sim card data

I just inheireted an E71x from a family member and plugged the sim card from my old Nokia 6085h. It works, except none of my contacts came over with my sim card. How to I fix this?

Did you copy the contacts from your 6085h to the SIM card? On your E71x, in contacts you can copy the SIM into the phone.

HT4623 after update of 6.1 from 4.3.3 on my 3gs it is asking to activate my iphone through itunes but it gives me error missing sim card please enter sim card

after update of my iphone 3gs it is giving me error insert sim

Sounds like your phone was hacked to be used with your carrier. There's no way to get it to activate without a SIM from the ORIGINAL carrier

Droid 3 No SIM card found and various malfunctions

Hi everyone,
I have had a Droid 3 phone for a few months. When I first recieved my new phone from the retailer, it had some simple OS malfunctions like resetting my wallpaper and restarting a couple times. It only lasted consistantly for a couple days so I didn't return it in the 15 day window they give. However, if I am opening and closing the slide a few times, the wallpaper problem comes back. Sometimes it does correct itself if I just turn off and turn back on. Other times I have to reset. And it will restart once in a while, but this doesn't bother me so much. Still not the biggest problem I have though.
Starting yesterday it could not find my SIM card. After searching online to figure out what that was and where it is located, I also searched solutions. All places I looked said to try to shim a piece of paper between the card the bar that holds it. That did not work. Further advice said to call the manufacturer and have it replaced. Am I able to do this? I do not have insurance on this phone. Would I contact Motorola or Verizon?
Also starting yesterday, the volume adjustment buttons started malfunctioning, they turn the phone on and off (main power is still there, just turns to sleep or awake). Once I bring the screen back on and unlock it prompts voice command and shows my contact list. Tried adjusting media sound and in-call volume too and it ends the app or ends my calls.
I'm not sure if the missing SIM card and the other problem are related or coincidence. Or if the whole phone is a dud? I'm very careful, no water damage, no dropping, but it can get beat up in my purse I suppose. I used to keep it in my back pocket until someone educated me about how bad that can be.
Any advice? Specifically can I exchange phones???
Thank you!
Jen

Hey,
I have a Droid 3 also, and have noticed the wallpaper thing. I haven't found a cure for that one, but like you said, it is not the biggest problem. As far as the Sim card, you can go into any Verizon Wireless store and they can replace the Sim card for you. The only thing you need the Sim card for is for travelling overseas. Now, this is not true for the Droid 4 or any of the other 4G phones. The 4G requires the Sim card. But try swapping it with a replacement from Verizon. I do not think that is causing your other problems. It sounds like some of the software may have become corrupt. I would suggest backing up your data, contacts, etc and then wiping the phone back to factory settings and then reloading the Operating System software. For more info on how to do this, go to this Verizon page at http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=44747
I have wiped my device before and it doesn't take that long to reload. It was a lot faster than wiping my old Blackberry. I think that will get you back up and running smoothly. Let me know how things go.

How to edit contact list in sim card?

Could someone tell me how to edit contact list in the sim card?
When you edit the contact list on the phone, sim card entries are not affected.
Thanks and regards.

The iPhone Will copy sim addresses automatically To the onboard memory and address book app however does NOT write back to the sim card . To edit sim card data you would need to put the sim back in a traditional traditional mobile phone.
The sim in the iphone is only used for network recognition.

SIM card removal

Stupidly, I inserted a SIM card into the slot of a missing SIM card drawer. How can I remove it ?

Take it in to an authorized service provider. Attempting to do it yourself might make a bad situation, worse.

In new iPad 4g, when sim card is not inserted, I can not find the enable 4g tap in the setting-cellular data tap, can some one please tell me if this is normal and if so, then when it appears, thanks

If the SIM is out of your phone, find my phone needs a data connection, so could use wifi - IF in range of a wifi and one that it can join (ie. a known network or one that is wholly open so no login required). Your phone could also simple be turned off, so not findable, or it may have been restored (plugged into iTunes and restored as new) again, making it permanently unfindable. Honestly, for someone stealing an iPhone, this is likely the first thing they do - restore as new and it is theirs forever.
Find my iPhone is tied to the users iCloud account - the find function is part of the iCloud account's services and it communicates with the iCloud servers over a data connection - either wifi or 3G.
Have you set up your iCloud account on your replacement phone, and is it working properly on that phone?

Can I sign up for a month of data with Verizon without auto renewal and how long can I go without using my sim card before it is deactivated?

When I checked out Verizon's data plans online, the only option I saw that did not involve automatic renewals was the option to pay $5 for a day of 300 MB. The other options (e.g., $20/month for 1GB) all appeared to involve automatic renewals every month unless I go in and cancel the plan. However, during a chat, a Verizon representative told me that auto renewal of the prepaid plans is an option that can be avoided, it just isn't listed in the online information. Has anyone found a way to only sign up for one month of data without having to cancel the next payment?
Also, when I looked online at a site that compared data plans, it stated that one needed to use the Verizon network every 4 months or else the sim card would be permanently deactivated. But in a couple of online discussions, the limit was listed as being 3 months. Verizon told me 6 months. Does anyone know which is currently correct?
Finally, I have heard that if the sim card does become deactivated, Verizon tends to insist on making one buy a new one with a regular data plan and not the prepaid options.Has anyone had any experience with this?

GeekBoy.from.Illinois thank you for replying. I tried the Verizon support forum, but before I can ask a question there I need to register, and the first step in registering is entering my mobile phone number. Since I don't have a Verizon phone, I can't register and, therefore, can't ask any questions. I did look through previous questions and answers, but it only confirmed that Verizon employees do not give out consistently correct information. I guess I will try talking or chatting with two of three more of them and hope that whatever the majority answers are will be the correct ones.

SIM card missing or invalid in Lumia 920

Hi!
I've seen a couple of similar posts but found no answer to my question so please let me tell you my story:
I bought a brand new unlocked and unbranded Nokia Lumia 920 (got it from the UK to be used in Ireland). I ordered a micro SIM from Tesco Mobile and when I inserted I got the message "SIM card missing or invalid", I thought that this may be due to the card not being active yet but when I put the card on a different phone first I was requested to enter the PIN and then I was advised that the card wasn't active, in the 920 it was just "SIM card missing or invalid".
I activated the SIM and transferred my number, put it on the 920 and again "SIM card missing or invalid", back to the old Nokia and working. So it had to be the phone but it was new so I ordered Micro SIMs from every possible company, until now LycaMobile and 48 have not worked but Meteor has, I've tried at least two SIMs of every company that failed to work the first time. Some of them were active, some not, some of them were empty some already had a number, as said only 48 worked and works from day 1.
I noticed that the chip on the SIM was a different size, I mean, all SIMs are micro SIMs the same size, but the Meteor one has a smaller chip (the copper part where the info is stored), I checked all the other SIMs that I had in the house and some of the older SIMs had smaller and some larger chips but until today I had been able to swap them all in my old phones with no problem.
I started looking for information online and tried the hard reset, it didn't work, I read then that I should use the card for a while in a different phone so that the SIM was perfectly connected to the network, I did so with one of the Tesco Mobiles SIM but when I tried it in the 920 "SIM card missing or invalid", I am thinking now of updating the software but I don't know if this will solve anything.
Any ideas? Anybody experienced the same issue and was able to find a solution?
Thanks in advance!!
Sebas

No idea but the fact that most of the other sims don't when I know for a fact that they all do because I've used them all. Perhaps there is a pin slightly out of place and for some reason it catches the meteor sim but not the others. I can't think of anything else.
Just something to check. If you goto Settings>Extras+info>More info>Mobile operator, do you have 000-GB?
