My phone says no sim card, what can I do?

I was texting with someone, then my phone did some weird thing, and I shut it down to correct it.  When I turned it back on it said there was no sim card.  I havent touched anything.  How do I fix this?

Try removing the SIM and putting back.

    My brand new phone says 'no sim card'. what do I do?

    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.

    sounds like your phone was hacked to work with your carrier.  Now it is relocked to the rightful carrier.  It cannot be reactivated without a SIM from that carrier.

    Seems your story has changed... not seeing is not the same as not supported.
    If the phone is carrier locked, you need a SIM from the carrier it's locked to to activate it.  The sim does not have to be active, it just has to be one from that carrier.

    My phone is showing SIM Locked, what can I do to unlock it?

        Hi Tomastiger,
    Lets get your sim unlocked! Which iPhone  do you have? Is the device asking for the PUK or PIN code?
    Thanks,

    Was your iPhone hacked/jailbroken to be unlocked?
    If so, installing an iOS update on an iPhone that was hacked to be unlocked or restoring such an iPhone with iTunes re-locks the iPhone to the carrier the iPhone was sold as carrier locked with.
    What is the exact error message - the SIM card is not supported?

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

  • Why does my phone say no sim card?  How do i fix?

    I dropped my phone and now it says No Sim in the upper left.  I cannot use the phone.  how do i fix?    

    This happened to me recently. I had to turn the phone on and off twice. I also had to press on the top of the frame of the phone where the sim card is. My issue actually happened when the phone had not been dropped. Good luck.

  • Phone says no sim card

    my iphone5 says no sim card wha tdo i do?

    Put in a sim card if there is not one there.
    Remove and reseat the sim card.
    Get a new sim card from your wireless provider.
    Did you cut the sim to nanosim card size from a bigger sim?
    Did you recently restore your iPhone or update your iOS version?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?

  • Hi i have a problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to ios 6 but now when trying to activate the phone it comes up with a message saying that the activation server is currently unavailable, also it always says no sim! what can i do?

    i have an activation problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to io6 using itunes but now the phone will not complete activation because it keeps saydin the activation server is not available and to re try later. ive been trying for 6 hours but it still wont activate. if i try using itunes then it sayd no sim inserted when there is one inserted, what can i do?

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

  • Why would my phone say no SIM card?

    I just bought my phone yesterday and today it said it had no SIM card so i turned the phone off and it was there again. But that kinda worried me, why would it say that?
    Also Today the EDGE was off the E wasnt there. and i did the same procedure and it came back.
    Just wondering if these things mean anything, since im new.
    Thanks

    Hey soccerdogs89,

  • Iphone 4 SIM Card-what can be done with it?

    Last night I began taking up my 13 year old son's Iphone 4 before bed so that he will not be up on the phone all night.  I discovered he removed the SIM card when he handed it over.  I asked him why he did this and he did not give an answer.  My first conclusion was that he wanted to place the SIM card into his Iphone 3G, but I've read that it does not fit.  My other guess is that he may receive text messages or app alerts all through the night and wanted to keep it from me.  Does anyone else have any ideas as to he could gain or be hiding by doing this?

    The only reasons I can think of that the child removed the SIM are 1) he didn't realize that the SIM in an iPhone 4 doesn't by default fit in an iPhone; 2) he has an adapter so that he can use the micro-SIM in an iPhone 3; such adapters are readily available, or 3) he doesn't want you to be able to use the iPhone and perhaps get his text messages.
    I'd demand the SIM from him as well as both iPhones if it were me, though of course that's your call.
    Regards.

  • Why does my phone say invalid sim and why can I not phone or send messages on it

    I cannot use phone or text today. What is problem?

    Usually cuz its locked to a network other then the SIM's. Did you swap SIMs today? Or it's not seated properly. Take it out and reinsert carefully.

  • HT1688 my phone says no sim card

    How do I fix this?

    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?
