My BB 9900 is detecting only one sim card.
Hi,
I have Blackberry Bold 9900,Previously it was able to detect all sim cards, but now only one sim is detecting.
I tried other sim cards with the same and other networks but it is showing insert sim card.
I have checked with the Option>Device>Advanced system settings>Sim Card and typed MEPD and it is showing all personalisation as disabled.
I want to use my sim card in it but I am not able to do so...
So anyone can help...
Mail me at: **Removed**@outlook.com

WHere is the card located there is no place on the side of the phone for one
In that case, you have a CDMA iPhone 4. It can't be unlocked as that is a term without meaning for a CDMA phone. That phone can only be used on the carrier for which it was originally sold.
Also, Apple doesn't unlock phones. Only the carrier does.

I own a iPhone 2G Today
He underwent updated Software
He gave me this message
"The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
Only compatible SIM cards from a supported Carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported Carrier's store to receive a replacement SIM card.
I did not know what to do??Follow this article: iPhone: Troubleshooting No Service or No SIM
Symptoms
In certain situations, iPhone may present one of the following symptoms:
"Invalid SIM" or "No SIM Card installed" alert appears intermittently.
Status bar displays "No SIM" when a SIM card is installed.
Resolution
If you encounter any of the above symptoms on your iPhone, try these steps to attempt to resolve the issue:
Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
Restore the iPhone.
If you still are unable to resolve this issue, contact Apple support for further assistance. -

replacement SIM card.It appears that you have an iPhone that is locked to a carrier other than the one you were using. Now that you have tried to update the iOS, it has relocked. That is what happens if you are using a phone that has been hacked to unlock. You have also forfeited support from Apple and from this forum.

I restored my I phone 4 using Itunes, after that I can't access the icon any more I only got a message that says " ( Sim not Valid.) Only compatible SIM cards from supported carrier may be used to activate iphone. I need some proffesional help. Thanks
"We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care, Sim not vaild?"
99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked. -
i wanna unlock my iPhone every time i try it says only compatible Sim cards from supported carrier may be used
Only the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. Yours is obviously locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
Contact the carrier it's locked to and find out if they offer unlocking and if you qualify to have it unlocked. -
Can I use more than one SIM card in my iPhone if I buy it SIM free?
Can I use more than one SIM card in my iPhone if I buy it SIM free?
Sim free is not enough, you can use different sim if it's unlock.

my iphon 5 said "only compatible sim cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iphone. please insert the sim card that came with ur phone or visit a supported carrier's store to receive a replacement sim card" what do i do??? i leave in diferent country now!!!???(((
in many countries to make phones seem less expensive
carriers pay most of the phones price for the customer
but this come at the cost of the phone only being able to work
with the carrier this is called a sim lock
the only people who can remove a sim lock is the carrier which
the phone is sim locked to they been doing it like that for at least 20 years -

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. -

It seems that you have a hacked iphone that has been locked back to the rightful carrier when you updated, as it should.
The only place that can legally/legitimately unlock an iphone is the carrier to which it is locked.

I also have the same problem. But I dont have any AT&T sim card. Only T-mobile. Because I tried to unlock my phone and it didnt work. Should I send it to Apple Store or T-mobile ??

Neither. Apple can not unlock your phone. T-Mobile can not unlock your phone. ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. Contact them and find out if you (and the phone) qualify for unlocking. -
HT1766 If I buy iPad air do I have to go with one SIM card or can I have any sim any time
If I buy a new iPad air can I use any sim or do I have one locked to the iPad
Depends on how you buy the iPad.
Most iPads are unlocked so any sim card from any carrier can be used with them. But some Carriers offer subsidized iPads which are locked to the carrier that sells them and as such can only take a sim card from said carrier.
If you buy the iPad from an Apple store for full price it should be unlocked for use with any compatible GSM sim card. -
I currently have the new iPad Air with Verizon and will probably also get one of the iPad Minis with Retina display when it comes out "end of November". I know I could get a WiFi only and use my phone or Air as a Hotspot but to that wears the battery hour out faster and it doesn't feel like the Hotspot speed is as fast as a 4G LTE device and the extra step of turning on the Hotspot and connecting to it instead of the simplicity of turning the device on and its connected to the 4G when I'm not on WiFi.
I'm willing to pay the premium to get a Mini with Verizon built-in but since I'm the only one using it away from home needing the LTE and I figure I can leave the other device at home for my wife to use via WiFi - I'm wondering if I could simply move the Sim Card back and forth to which ever device I want to use on the road hence saving the $10 per month device fee to Verizon?
Thanks for anyone's feedback...That would be a really good question on the Verizon site or by calling Verizon.

Hi I have a question, i have a 8GB iPhone & recently purchased a 16GB one afew days ago.. I want to use both of them.. you know, swap out my sim card back and forth inbetween the two..
anyways..
I knoticed when I try to register my new one iTunes asks me if I want to replace my old phone with this newer one; and well, to be honest I'm scared to register it because I dunno if it will reconize my other 8GB iPhone -
but my question is: Will I be able to use both phones with 1 sim card?
Message was edited by: I Love Ace FrehleyThat is kind of hard to answer. I have three iPhones, two are 8GB and one is a 16GB. Two are running 1.1.3 and the other is running 1.1.2 On the two that are running 1.1.3, I can switch the sims between the two 1.1.3 iPhone, I just have to connect the iPhone to iTunes for a moment till I see the iPhone is activated message.
If I try to switch the 1.1.3 sim to the 1.1.2 iPhone, nothing happens and the iPhone won't activate untill I put it's own sim back in. I even tried restoring one of the 1.1.3 iPhones with the 1.1.2 sim in it and the iPhone still would not activate. So it appears there is something preventing a sim swap between 1.1.3 and 1.1.2 iPhones but it works between two 1.1.3 iPhones.
Your experience may be different.
