Nokia N8 asks for Sim Card and continues to restar...

I have had my Nokia N8 for about 3 months, and have had no problems until the last few days when it will ask to insert a sim card (when it is already inserted) and it will do a restart for no apparent reason?
Has anyone had this problem??

From my observation, this happens when you either want to make a call or send a message.
It seems to tally with was recorded in the log file admin***.txt under MailForExchange directory under phone Memory.
It will show either DiskFull or roaminevent or profile does not exist or ignoring roamin event.
My suspicion is, this is software issue as this happens even with a new sim card.
The network coverage availability software function seems to be buggy...
I am using Nokia N8 with Phone memory at 38.6mb
Its a pity as otherwise the N8 has been superb
This phone restart is really really irritating... I wanted to switch to lumia 920 but i have a hunch that this problem might be there as well..

Daughter reset my iphone 4 now it ask for sim card but phone dont have one

my daughter reset my iphone 4 now its asking for sim card but it don't have a sim card slot

Is this a 4 or 4s? What is the model number on the back? If its A1431 or A1387, it is a 4s, and does indeed have a sim tray. A1349 or A1332 will indicate an iphone 4.

Old Iphone 3 sync to computer to transfer files to iphone 4- now asking for sim card because it cannot activate old iphone?

Ok, I purchased new phones... and hooked up the iphone 4 to the computer without knowing that my husband hadn't synced his iphone in like a year ( yeah, yeah, I know, you are supposed to keep that updated). Anyway, so his new iphone has basically nothing on it from his iphone 3g. So I restored the iphone 4 to new... and then plugged his 3g into the computer-- it required a software update to 4.2 or whatever it is now. So I do that and then wait for like 20 mins and now it is asking me to put a valid sim card into the phone so that it can activate it???? Well that phone no longer has a valid sim card as the sim card has been transferred to the 4 and now I only get that screen. Is there no way to make this a touch now? I'm so confused... ... so please someone help me... because I think my husband may kill me since he was perfectly happy with his 3. LOL....
Thanks!

The original SIM should still be in the iPhone.
The 3G and iPhone4 use different size SIM cards, so the only way to move the SIM from the 3G to the 4 would be to physically cut it down to the correct size.
If the original SIM is still in the device, then it sounds like the device is carrier locked and was hacked to allow it to be used with a different carrier.
For future reference, there is no requirement to upgrade the iOS on the device in order to sync.

I restore my iPhone 4S on iTunes and then when restarted it is asking for valid SIM card and I don't have SIM card for that, I was just using the iPhone with wifi, any one can help? Please.

I restore my iPhone 4S on iTunes after the restore was completed the iPhone was restarted and now asking for valid SIM card which I didn't,t have and I was using the iPhone with wifi, and now can't use it because the screen is locked for SIM card. Can anyone help me please.
Thanks,
David

I doubt the phone is locked to GCI in any way
Well, you're wrong, & in fact not only is it locked, GCI does not offer unlocking for iPhones.
Fact is your post won't help the OP.
And you are 100% sure its locked to them? How can you know this? While GCI does not offer unlocking that does not mean the phone is actually locked to it. Get off your high horse.
Its possible the original owner had an unlocked phone. he was using with GCI. Or that GCI doesn't actually have locked phones. Seeing as they don't even have their own infrastructure but instead use AT&T's I doubt they'd have iPhones specifically locked to them and that would be the reason they do not offer unlocking (because there's nothing for them to unlock). And just to clarify, I'm not saying for a fact its not locked to them. It very well maybe be, but without knowing more about the phone and going by the fact GCI uses AT&T infrastrucure its possible its not locked. But here's no way to say for sure either way.
Trying a Sim card from AT&T or another carrier might just help the OP if its actually unlocked or locked to AT&T rather than GCI.

How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
Backup Phone A.
Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

my iphone 4s .. my ask what is the msg mean : there is no sim card . and my iphone is lock . plz how ican unlock ?

If there is no SIM card, insert one from the carrier to whom the device is locked.
As for unlocking the device, only the carrier to whom it is locked can unlock it.

I need to carry two iphones for work - one with a UK sim card and one with a Spainsih sim card. Can I REPLICATE contetn across two devices from one itunes account

certainly. Synch one of your phones to iTunes. Then restore the other phone from the first phone's backup.

The salesperson for my iphone 4 said on Christmas morning we could go to our online account, select my number, select to change my SIM card, and enter the ICCID number so that I'd be able to use my iphone 4 today. I have not seen any such steps. Help?

I suspect the salesperson that told you that meant your online account with your carrier...have you tried logging into your carrier account online? To do this will require the sim number on your sim card, as well as the phone's IMEI number...you get the sim number off the sim card & the IMEI number, for the phone, is printed on the box.

You cannot return to previous state. The update re-locked the iPhone
to the original carrier. You must contact the original carrier to see if
they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
Be advised that if your iPhone had previously been hacked/modified/
jailbroken to work with other than original carrier, it may be impossible
for the original carrier to unlock it properly.
