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.

IOS 6.1.2 : "no sim card" message

Hi,
since I upgraded to iOS 6.1, my iPhone 4 started to lose the phone network frequently : each time I took an elevator or I took the subway, it was enable to get back on it. It just displayed "no service"
After I upgraded to 6.1.2 but the problem got worse. Now my phone sends "no sim card" message several times a day. I need to turn the flight safe mode on and off and re-enter my PIN to re-activate the SIM card. The problem even occurs during the night when the phone is untouched in a place where the reception is good.
Before iOS 6.1 the problem didn't exist, I thought about downgrading but I understood there's no way to do that.
Does anyone experience the same ? Any idea ? Magic trick to fix it ?

I also download update 6.1.2 and now have no wifi or blue tooth connection tried all the restores and tried while connected to I tunes, hurry up and fix this apple the silence is deafening

No signal, no sim-card message

Hello,
iPhone 4 shows me a "No sim-card" message and losing a provider's signal periodically after upgrading to OS6. Can I fix this problem somehow?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reply.
I tried removing/reinserting the sim. Sometimes it helps sometimes not.
The same thing with the turning out/turning on the iPhone.
Reinstalled iOS yesterday and restored all info via iCloud. Didn't help.
Can it be any kind of a bug or just a problem with a sim-card?
Thanks.

HT5554 I have the iPhone 5 and I keep getting a no sim card message. I have had my phone for over a year now so I know I have a sim card. How can I fix this because it doesn't let me get calls now.

Try resetting the phone. Hold the home and power lock button until the Apple logo appears.If that does not work, turn the phone off and take the SIM out and then put it back in.
If that still does not work, you may have a defective SIM, in which case you will need a new one from your carrier.

If it worked for you using iOS 6, then it appears iOS 7 has made some changes. Was it working before?

You get the "no SIM" message popping up when Wifi connectivity is lost on a 3G/4G capable iPad which has no SIM installed. Check your wifi set up for intermittent issues.

Remove the current sim, clean the contacts, re-install the sim.
Contact your wireless provider and get a new sim.
Has the iPhone been previoulsy jailbroken or modified to work with
other than the original provider?

How to fix "no sim card" message?

I keep getting the "no sim card installed" message when I'm in the middle of a phone call (iphone 4). I turn the phone off then on and that seems to help but it happens again eventually. Has happened every time I'm talking on my iphone in the past two days!

Virgin use the Optus network here in Australia - which is why, the 3G phones showed you connected to the Optus network, and not to the Virgin network...They don't have their own network, they piggyback on Optus - which is why it would show that it is locked to Optus!
They also said they would unlock my iPhone 4 - which has been done! So there's obviously something wrong with the phone...

Apple does not fix devices.
Out of Warranty replacement would be the only option.
My iPad is not eligible for warranty service. What are my service options?
Apple offers two service options for iPads that are not eligible for warranty service.
Battery Replacement Service If your iPad requires service only because the battery's ability to hold an electrical charge has diminished, please refer to the Battery Replacement Service information.
Out-of-Warranty Service If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
iPad model
Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
iPad mini
$219
iPad, iPad 2,
          iPad mini Retina

iPad 3rd, 4th generation,

     A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
          Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPad is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. Replacement iPads have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer.

'No SIM card' message - Telstra, Australia

The 3G Telstra Australia connection in my WiFi-3G iPad drops off frequently and the message 'No SIM card' appears. The only option is to turn the iPad off and on; but I normally have to repeat it 3 times before it asks me to unlock the SIM card.
My iPad is 10 months old.
Any advice?

By any chance do you have it in a case? If so remove the case and see if you still have the problem.
I was experiencing the same issue and solved it by purchasing a different case. It seems that the case I was originally using was putting pressure on the iPad and causing the no sim error. I have not had it happen since. This was on an iPad1 by the way.

"Invalid SIM card" message

that is the message I got on my phone today. It also says that "emergency calls only" but I have no problem making a call.
Any idea what this is about? as another peice of the puzzle, the back to my phone somehow vanished - could that have something to do with it?
thanks.

Hi hkj333:
I've seen this error message come up before, and I believe I have a solution you can try. Go to Settings> Wireless & Networks> Mobile Networks> Network Mode> Change it from Global to CDMA. Once done, the error should go away. From the sound of it, it's likely caused by your phone reading the SIM card that is not active in the Verizon Wireless system. Give it a shot and please follow up with your results.
Thanks,
