HT4994 my phone says no sim. how do i fix it?

this has happened before and a coworker fixed it but i am clueless.

Try the following steps:
TS2802 iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
"No SIM installed" alert (GSM models only)
Remove the SIM card.
Verify that the SIM card is not damaged or dirty, then reinstall the SIM card.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Wait approximately two minutes, then see if iPhone detects the SIM card and if it will register on the network.
If that doesn't work, try another SIM card for that carrier, if possible, to see if it is detected.
If the message still exists, please go to: apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/ for information on service.
Note: If you need to send your iPhone in for service or if you want to temporarily use a different phone, you may be able to use the SIM card inside your iPhone with another GSM phone.

  • HT4528 Why does my phone say invalid SIM?

    My phone says invaild SIM. I cannot text, call, or connect to the internet!!! What is the problem??

    Yes, All iPhone 5's have SIM cards... regardless of carrier.
    Remove and reinstall the SIM.
    If the issue continues, get a replacement SIM from Verizon.
    FYI, Verizion uses SIM's in all there LTE devices.

    Try removing the SIM and putting it back. Try resetting the phone by pressing and holding the power and Home buttons until the silver apple appears. Contact AT&T for a new SIM.

    If you haven't already tried, see if you can force it into recovery mode to restore it:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.  If that doesn't work, the last thing you can try is to put it in DFU mode to restore it: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2648467?threadID=2648467&tstart=0.

  • HT4582 hi I have bought an ipad mini which was advertised as unlocked, ipad has signal but says invalid sim, how to I find out what network it is locked to?

    hi I have bought an ipad mini wich was advertised as unlocked to any network, when I put nano sim from giff gaff in the ipad says invalid sim, how can I find out what network it is locked to?

    There is nothing on the iPad itself that can tell you. Did you buy it from a reputable retailer? You can try asking them.

  • HT1688 my phone says no sim

    my phone says no sim card found

    What were you doing before getting this message?
    Has the iPhone recently been restored or had the iOS version
    updated?
    Has the iPhone been jailbroken or modified to work with other
    than the original wireless provider?
    Have you removed the sim, checked to see that the contacts are
    in good shape, and reseated the sim?
    Have you tried replacing the sim with one from another working iPhone
    or a new one from your wireless provider?

  • Phone says no sim on top left wat does it mean

    phone says NO SIM top left wat does it mean

    I'm guessing that place's phone still has the SIM in it.
    Mine did and I got that error as well yesterday.
    It seems some people have been having an issues where all of the sudden, the SIM card isn't being recognized (in my case, I had successfully made a call with the phone just minutes before and then all of the sudden, it's telling me no SIM card).
    Rebooting the phone nor resetting the network settings worked to get it to recognize the SIM card.
    I ended up powering off the phone, popping the SIM card out, leaving it out for a couple minutes, and then putting it back in.
    When I powered the phone back up, it recognized the SIM card and so far, it's been fine.

    Hi kpnit4rl,
    Please remove your battery and sim and reinsert it again. If the problem persists, maybe your phone is locked.

    Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
    Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
    If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
    Let us know how you get on.

  • It wont let me download itunes, it keeps saying error. How do i fix it?

    it wont let me download itunes, it keeps saying "error". How do i fix it?

    You say "It won't let me download iTunes ...".  I cannot imagine what you mean.  What does "It" mean?
    iTunes is a part of iOS on your iPhone.  If your iPhone can turn on, iTunes is already there.  You cannot separately download iTunes to iPhone; you would have to update iOS to get a fresh copy.
