I've had my Desire since it came out but a problem has just come up: the phone will shut down whenever the SIM card is inserted. Without it it'll work fine, but if i put it in, when it boots, as soon as it tries to connect to the network it'll shut down. I've tried a different SIM card and the problem is the same.
This started by using MIUI but i've clean installed a CM7 based rom and the problem is still there.
My phone is out of warranty so taking it in is not worth it.
Thanks
Did you try to flash a new radio.img?
No i havn't, i, rather stupidly, hadn't thought of that..... i guess i thought that when i flashed a new rom i'd get a new radio!
When you run RUU you get a new radio, but ordinary custom roms don't have that option.
I flashed the latest radio and the problem remains the same.........:crying:
Any other ideas?!
Then it's probably a hardware issue. You can try to disassemble it and try to fix connectors.
I'm now completly los now; the phone switches off with 3 different sim cards but not witha forth!!! I'll have the SIM card replaced even though it does work fine in my HTC ChaChaCha........
Very strange!
Thanks for your help anyway, it's obviously got to do with the card and not the phone so i guess the solutions been found!!
I have had the same problem, until yesterday. I'm running a cooked ICS ROM, and the issue has gone as soon as I have switched to a newer RIL. So don't take it for granted that it's a hardware issue or SIM-related. Hope this helps.
For everyone who have this problem

My help
you just have to activate the pin code on security and location setting
but the SIM card must be inserted to activate the pin code
If you never activate the pin code, then the default code is usually 0000
if the phone is turned off before you have to get to the temp setting reply me and i'll tell u what to do
If it worked for u don't forget to hit thanks
Good day! I just want to ask if anyone has an idea of how to solve a weird and sudden problem that happened to my phone a few days ago.
I was running Cyanogenmod R16 with Xcelerate kernel.
I use two SIM cards on my phone, but I do not use the first slot all the time, so when I'm not using it, I regularly disable it through the SIM card settings, and enable it only when I need it.
What happened is, when I tried to enable it, suddenly both my SIM card slots could not be recognized (The SIM card settings could not be accessed; and error says: "SIM card info not available. Menu cannot be accessed"). In the lockscreen, it says: "INVALID CARD." for both SIMs.
I tried both restoring a backup and going back to stock MIUI, but still, the problem was there; none of the SIMs could be recognized (I tried using other SIM cards too.)
My IMEI's for both SIM slots are fine.
I've looked up on other forums, but I haven't found any others with a similar problem on the Redmi 1S.
If anyone knows what I need to do to fix this, I need your help. Thank you very much.
Have you tried both sim in other phone..?
If yes,and both working then should be problem with your imei!

Yes, I've tried both SIM's on another phone, and they work fine.
Since my phone still shows both IMEI's when I look for it, I assumed that there's no problem with them. What are possible problems that concern IMEI's? So that I can look up on general IMEI problems.
Thank you very much!
May be this can help friend

Thanks for the reference. Backed up my IMEI and Restored it right after, but still no change. Still, thanks!
EDIT: I've already tried two newly bought SIM cards, and the problem is still present.
Was this solved? Happening to me right now..
Happening to me too... Unsolved
For me just blowing in the sim slot & reboot fixed after few times..
if you have TWRP backup your modem & efs partition, just restore it via twrp. it worked for me
Hello,
I have a similar problem.
SIM2 is not recognized at all. I can use SIM1 only.
Tried to switch the SIM cards and still SIM2 is not recognized.
Both SIM cards are working great on other phones.
Is it OS related issue?
I've got same problem. Try to clean the sim metal contacts carefully and gently with an alcohol and qtip or tissue. It solved my problem.

I got this virus yesterday. Came up after installing MIUI 8.
Bro ... I'm having the exact same problem you've ever experienced. Hopefully your problem is solved for your phone and willing to share with me now. Because I've read and done all the replies in this thread and still no solution. Please help and thanks in advance
Hello, thanks to my carelessness, I think I broke my dual sim functionality.
What I was doing was messing around in the network settings in Engineer mode that can be accessed using *#36446337#. And all of a sudden, both sims stopped working. After a lot of messing around with the RAT settings, I could get one of the sims working. After selection sim1 or sim2 in the options and changing the RAT settings for that sim, I can get said sim to work, but it breaks the other. No matter what I do, I can't get both working again. This was on Open Beta 9.
What I've tried doing since then:
1- Factory reset
2- Flashing another ROM (Lineage)
3- Flashing latest 4.0.4 firmware
nothing seems to get both sims to work. Always just 1 sim working. Does anyone have any thoughts what I could try?

Just do a full wipe with the unbrick tool and everything will be back to normal.
I have the same problem after I mess with the engineer mode.
Tried everything and still unsolved.
Try installing the modem or firmware of previous oxygen OS builds then updating the oxygen os

Yes, I tried the unbrick tool but it's still the same. It seems to me that the GSM/WCDMA band of the phone is broken. When put two LTE card into the phone, both can work under LTE band.

Installed the OOS3.0 and then updated to OOS4.0. Dual sim function won't work on both OS.
Flashing modem usually can solve signal lost on Samsung, but it seems that it won't work on Oneplus.

Well you just said you are a noob.. No problem but really dialing a number isn't going to break anything in your phone.. Wipe all partitions then Flash OOS 4.0.2 and o guarantee it will work, this is pure something in software level.
I have successfully fix the problem according to a post at Oneplus Community in China. Just Flash Official H2OS 2.5 (Android 6.0.1 ). Go to engineer mode. Choose Network Set -- Band mode --Hardware Default (Foreign) to fix the problem.
P.S. If you are in mainland China. Pls choose Hardware Default(China). Else choose (Foreign)

Hello guys I've had this phone for a week. Now since it is a hand me down phone i cannot give you guys much details.
The phone is still unrooted, meaning to say there is no custom rom flashed here. When i got this phone it had some few issues like when you boot it up, apps will start giving you popup notice so I fixed it by factory reset and the next issue I've noticed was the systemui crashing but it turned out that the google app is the problem.
I've tried using different sim cards that are apprently working but there's still no luck. The owner that gave it to me said that everything here was fine.
I had to change the batteries since it's bloated. The sd card seems to be working fine. The only problem is the sim card reader. Not sure it it's a firmware or a hardware problem. I need advices. Thank you in advance.
Hi all,
Am running a Galaxy S5 (klte) which I'd been using CM13 on without problem. I moved over to Lineage at the weekend - full factory reset, clear cache/Dalvik, use latest TWRP to install Lineage and re-install everything. So Saturday, Sunday, Monday everything fine. Then switch the phone off overnight (as I had done on the other nights) and switch back on this morning. The phone boots fine, no sign of any issues - but I don't get my usual "Enter your SIM PIN" screen, it boots straight to the desktop.
Can't access anything to do with phone functions and the signal icon sits as a triangle but hollow, a bit like when you get zero signal strength... it's not the SIM card with a line through it (no SIM card) icon, which is odd. Trying to access settings to select a network, or go for auto network detection draws a blank (can't access SIM card/network).
I've gone back into TWRP and cleared the cache and Dalvik again and the problem persists. I took the latest nightly (2017-02-13) and flashed that hoping it might fix it, but also no joy.
Any ideas without me having to factory reset the device and re-install everything again (pain!)
Thanks,

I had this before as well. I was able to fix it using the correct modem and bootloader software. After this, it worked fine until I did a restore with TWRP. All restored but the modem was not working. I discovered a ADB command to easily fix it but I lost the bookmark for this page. ATM I am looking for this command. Something like "ADB SHELL /AUTO ....."
If you find it, please post it here. I do as well.

Solved not solved
Well I've been playing around a bit more testing to find exactly what it is causing this issue.
It's system profiles. I use these extensively with triggers so my phone connects to my car, goes on vibrate at work etc. With system profiles active (whole menu turned on) the issue occurs. With the profiles off, it's resolved. It does matter how the profiles are configured (I tested with just 1 profile and all settings on "do not change").
So this is something for the Lineage OS team to look at and fix in a later build because as it stands system profiles are broken, at least for klte. Does anyone else have a different experience on their device and what device are you using?
Thanks! It worked!

In my case I only had to turn off the whole System Profiles general button.
Same for me
I have done exactly as the first post and my sim is also not working now when it was fine. I have a Galaxy s3 i9305 lte. It's just says no sim. I have Lineage 14.1 and have updated to the latest nightly. Any ideas how to get my sim working again?

On my S4 Mini LTE the profiles seem to sometimes stop the home button (long press) pulling up last apps used even though the button works fine as two quick presses gives me split screen. I think it's automotive profile that activates when it connects to my car Bluetooth that is the cause, but not sure as haven't had chance to pull a log.
Same here on Motorola Moto E XT1021, tried getting CyanogenMod 13, but all the mirrors are down and I don't feel like getting Android from not trusted source.
It's definitely a problem with the ROM because everything works fine on different ROMs, but on Lineage there is no SIM card detection at all and nothing seems to help.
I'm trying to get older Lineage ROM hoping it will work.
Consider removing and reassigning the PIN

What software was on the phone you first locked your SIM in?
Sometimes a SIM will respond to a config file that might be absent when you flash a new ROM.
If you can put your SIM in a different device that recognizes it, use that device to disable the PIN.
Then power down and eject it.
Then, re-insert it into the problem device to see if it works.
If it does, re-assign a PIN using that device.
Hey. Yeah that sounds like a good thing to try although I removed Lineage and have a stock KitKat rom now and works faultlessly. Still have root access and the s3 doesn't need a later version really. Tbh I would have been happy staying on kk if it wasn't for the tech industry moving forward with their software development! How dare they!

The trick with disabling the profiles works nicely on my Xperia T with the CM based Resurrection Remix ROM, android version 7.1.2.
XT has no main Profiles button, so i deleted all the profiles manually and restarted the phone. Now trying to find out which profile caused the problem.
.....
Made several new profiles, restarted the phone after each one, but the problem didn't turn back. I think it has issues only with the built-in profiles.
Thanks for the tip man!:good:
Single Sim Working Dual Sim Not
In my case when I remove both the sims and put in only one at a time regardless which slot or which sim it works but when I put two in together it doesn't, driving me to believe that the lineage is not supporting dual sim and is failing hence when both are inserted.
I am running Lineage OS 15 on my S7, and other than a few glitches, the SIM card issue is the only significant problem I have experienced. I have looked through the settings, and I found out that my baseband version is "Unknown." I tried flashing some files, in an attempt to fix it, but I still have no luck. I hope someone fixes this problem.
Hope this helps...

On the latest Lineage build, I was having the issue with it not reading my SIM, so here's what I did:
-clean install of lineageOS (wipe, install rom, install gapps, and install Kernel)
It wouldn't read my SIM at this point, so I
-factory reset
-installed LG G3 Tekcafe VS985-49A_stock (I'm sure any rom would have worked though)
-installed Lineage over top of this rom and wallah! everything works great!

Hi all, first sorry for my english, is not my home lenguage, i have an samsung galaxy s5 SM-G900T with custom room lineage-14.1-20180309-nightly-klte-signed.zip, all fine at the moment, except that i can't wiew my contacts stored in sim card and i can't save new contacts in the sim either, any body have a solution for this issue?. Regards.
It's gapps...
Hola!
I am experiencing the same issue and I relate it to the gapps.
The sim works perfectly fine with normal lineage OS. With gapps the sim doesn't work. Reproduced 3 times.
Hello, I'm using a Grand Prime SM-G530H phone with LineageOS 16.0, and here it says, no SIM card but I have a card running normally, I uninstalled Lineage and installed the stock rom, and it normally worked the SIM card, but when I installed it back Lineage continued the same error, what can be ???
My Galaxy S5 somehow detects a Sim Card which is not even inserted. The signal strength showed at the screen is the same as the wifi strength, but never at zero. But if I try to call someone it says no sim card detected. Of course boy there isn't. The problem is that inserting the sim card changes nothing. Same Problem. I switched from lineage to the original firmware back... HELP
