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.

Maybe bad connection on your sim card?
Try removing the SIM card and put it back in, and then boot the phone.

done that, doesn't help
Im getting hte same issue. The 4.0.2 update came through, rebooted the phone. SIM not found, press to reboot....
Rebooted, SIM still not working. remove SIM and replace. Still not working. replaced with another SIM. Still not working.
Was working fine prior to the 4.0.2 update. This is on a 1 month old phone that has never been rooted. It is still as stock as it comes out of the box... And i want to test it more before i start boxing it up to send it back...
Have you tried leaving the battery out for a bit, then trying powering it up again?
Here is where it gets weird. I tried 2 other sim cards as well as my own. none of them worked. put my sim card back in and tried again, still not working. turned it off over night. went to Vodafone and asked if i could try a new SIM in the phone. still not working. put my TPG/Optus sim in and it started working. got a new SIM from Voda, transfered all the account info to the new card, waited an hour and tried it again and now it works :/
Dont know what caused it to stop working and dont know what caused it to start working again :/ im going to throw the word "Vodafone" in there as the cause because people will just nod their head and say... "yep, that was probably it..."
I have the same issue with AT&T....the phone does recognize the SIM, APN and all...but no signal. Just once in a while it gets registered on teh network, but for one minute or so...I don't know what to do
Same issue here, after a reboot my phone does not recognize my sim at all. no signal at all. tried a different sim, nothing, bought a new sim but nothing again, returned to stock, everything, but still nothing....no remedy yet....
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
if it still interests you, I have a simple solution that works for everyone

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.

Turn off your mobile and change sim slots then power on if problem still present then again exchange sim slots then power on do this 2to4 times i hope this will work.

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
Hi there guys,
As it turns out I was this morning at class, when all of a sudden my phone gave a signal of "No service", so the data internet wouldn't work. I didn't pay too much heed to it until I got back home and my phone wasn't working yet. It happens to be my phone, it's deconfigured. It won't recognize any SIM card.
I tried resetting it, upgrading its firmware... but nothing changed. I've thought of installing a custom ROM... I might screw my phone up even more, tho. I don't have any other alternative
Right now I'm trying a higher version... B708 (Mine was B512)
All suggestions are welcome... thank you.
hi check your imei num. and baseband....i have same issue....imei null.......
Hello.
About a month ago suddenly my service connection dissapeared.a pic
The Phone reads the sim card and sees it (I don't have the "insert sim card" issue) but it's always searching a service/connection without finding it.
It gives me an Error in finding a network a pic
I thought its the sim card or something and I put the sim card in another phone and it worked (so the problem is in the phone itself).
I've tried to fix it in a many different ways and i didn't succeeded. I rooted and put a rom on itand it didnt work so I unrooted it. also i replaced the anthena.
i went into a store that could fix it. The phone was there for two weeks and they couldn't fix it!
I went to another store and without checking they talled me that this is a cpu problem (I doubt about it) and it cant be fixed.
PLEASE HELP
YOURE THE ONLY HOPE NOW!!!
thanks to all!
