So for ages i was getting no sim card inserted on my I9505 and figured it was a hardware problem as it would work sometimes if i pushed the tray really hard and so i replaced the sim card tray and all was working for a few days. I then decided to flash a new rom and straight after the flash all im getting is no sim card inserted.
Ive used odin to flash the stock firmware but still get the message. Ive used the airplane trick also with no luck.
Im totally convinced its a software problem because it happened instantly after a flash and ive only recently replaced the sim reader.
Any help would be appreciated.
hii , i guess you have imei problem , chech for #06# if your email code match the one below the battry.

It was AntaresOne & Alucard24's cm12 build. I tried flashing the latest modem and obviously when i went back to stock using Odin an older modem but correct one was installed.
Anyhow, i actually believe it was a hardware problem again. I think that when flashing a new ROM it gets very hot and this can cause problems with the Sim reader. So i took apart the phone and basically used some duct tape to make sure the pop connector thingy is securely pushed down and also the Sim tray. It seems to be working so far.
I will flash a ROM just to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Great it worked again mate.
Im using
GpE Version by Dandvh Lolipop. 5.0.1
And Note 4 port 4.4.4 by albe. Those two are the best ones. But if you want 4.4.2 go with imperium rom.
Didnt had problems so far.

Been playing around and tried a few roms but after Polaris ROM: udK 8.0 Vega R1 it wont recognise the sim card.
Any ideas?
Is the sim realy in place?? check it again... not the roms fault foresure, never heard of this kind of problem
Well thats what i thought, and i can still flash the phone to anything i like so definitly not screwed up the roms.
Just double checked and still says No Sim
Very strange? have u tried another rom? still the same thing?
Yup! tried another rom still the same problem, Originally i had bepes rom but this morning i tried to make a phone call and the ear speaker was dead couldn't hear anything so i tried the external speaker and this worked fine.
I thought be re-flashing or trying a different rom might solve this and now im left with "No Sim" message.
Maybe the phone is faulty?
or sim card fault? can you tried with another sim-card.. just a thought,
I don't have another sim but it does work in my old sony K800i with no problems.
Thanks for the suggestions so far.
So the SIM is ok as it works in another phone.
You have flashed twice so not the ROM . Hate to say it but I would flash back to original ROM and re SPL and get it back for exchange repair
Whhhooooo!!
Left the battery out for a few days and it can now read the sim!
Still got no audio from ear speaker guess its gotta go back
Hi, sorry for just jumping in here. But, my galaxy s4 i9505, android 4.2.2, baseband version i9505XXUBMGA, has all of a sudden decided to not recognise the sim card its had in it for the past 2 months. Ive rooted this device but not played with it any further as im not sure what im doing. Ive tried the sim card in another phone and it works fine, other sim card from other devices also do not work in this phone. It first started showing no sim a couple of days ago but i restarted it and it came back on and it recognised it straight away but over night it totally stopped working. Ive googled and searched these forums and found no answer. Ive installed stock firmware and put it back to the state it was in when i received it with no luck. Im worried this may be a hardware failure and not a software one. Really hoping somebody is so kind to throw sme light on my problem. Thanks in advance
I had this on my i9505.
It came up "sim removed, mobile data will not be available until sim is re inserted".
Every sim i tried didnt work.
Had to send to samsung and they found a faulty sim reader. So they replaced it.

Hated stock rom so rooted using ioroot, flashed TWRP and installed G3 port ROM
Inserted SIM card but phone wouldn't detect
Reflashed baseband thinking that would help, no luck.
Decided to revert to stock
Flashed the 4.2.2 KDZ - I was dumb and didn't notice it was 4.2 not 4.4
Still no sim card detected
Flashed 4.4.2 KDZ
Still no SIM card detected.
The SIM itself is fine and I've tried another SIM with same problem.
The IMEI is showing up correct. Could I have killed the EFS partition when installing custom ROM? Would that mess with the SIM card detection?
Help please. Much appreciated
I am having the same issue. Can someone help us?

Check your phone's baseband, probably not the cause but yeah.
Try to clean the simcard
Try to clean the simcard tray
See or your phone might be simlocked or something like that.
maybe try to logcat and watch in the logs something to sim related text.
I can't give you ideas based on experience.
EDIT: I saw your other thread.
So you have flashed F400(G3) rom on a F320(G2)?
If so then my question to you is, is your wifi working? Cause flashing could may have caused some issues with the partition layout. I don't think there will be big differences/no differences but just to be sure.
Did you also tryed to flash back to stock and or flash baseband?
Was sim working before you flashed the rom? What rom did you flashed from the g3? Just so I could maybe inspect the updater-script if it isn't too large to see or it may got other partitions.

Did you find the solution bro
I'm having the same problem. I was on some old CM13.1 rom for LG G2 VS980 and releases prior to it, sim card was working without a problem. But only last night after updating from 10day old CM13.1 nightbly build with yesterday latest build, the sim card stopped working.
I tried method online which said to remove the card for one minutes before booting. Did it and didn't work.
What can I do now?

Nah, sent it back to supplier.
hey guys,
I have just gotten my phone back from repair. It was getting the cracked lCD replaced.
So i went and put my SIM card into the SIM slot then i rebooted my phone, just to see a "No SIM" message which then proceeded to say "Insert SIM card". My wifi and everything is working and i can make emergency calls. I have previously had problems with my EFS folder and a corrupt IMEI but i fixed that issue and i don't believe that these two incidents are related whatsoever.
This is the thread with all of the information of my last problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/service-t2898890
To try and solve this new problem, i have done the following:
1. Taken the sim card out and restarted phone and entered the sim card back in numerous times in various different sequences.
2. Done a full factory reset, reflashed a new rom, modem and bootloader.
3. Restored the EFS folder.
4. Tried a different SIM card.
This could be a hardware issue, but i feel as though it is software related, but i am no genius so i am open to any suggestions as to what it may be and how i may be able to fix it. If i am not able to fix it i will just send it back to the phone repairers and see what they can do to resolve the problem, but that would be the last thing i want to do.
thanks for any help.
not to worry. I have now solved the problem and everything is working perfectly.

i was on android 4.4.2 thouchwiz, i then upgraded to android 5, which also meant i had to upgrade the modem, which seemed to fix the problem. I then downgraded back down to android 4.4.2 touchwiz and that solved the problem.
so maybe you could try upgrading your modem or something? let me know if that works.

By modem do you mean radio?
It's an unrooted phone in my case, unfortunately.
the modem is a file or software i guess you could say in which controls the the signal on your phone.
hmmmm, im not sure what you could do then... im guessing you do not plan on rooting either?
I would like to resurrect my old i9505 with Lineage but ran into an issue. I flashed TWRP (Odin) and then installed Lineage after formatting. The phone seems to be working fine except that it does not detect the sim card when I put one in. Unfortunately, I did not try the sim before flashing nor did I make a backup, so I am not sure if it was working on the original stock build, however, it was working a year or so ago when I last used it with the original stock (Android 5.1) build. Here are the symptoms:
Grey card with line through in OS
No changes at all when SIM is Inserted
Preferred Network just shows "Invalid Network Mode (-1) Ignore
IMEI is showing correctly
Here is what I have tried so far:
Replaced the SIM tray with new hardware
Reverted back to latest Stock (SIM not showing under stock)
Tried both Lineage 14 and 13 versions
Have tried flashing 3-4 different recent versions of the bootloader and modem files:
Have tried messing with the *#*#4636#*#* settings
Have re-installed TWRP, Lineage, Stock several times
Here is the current setup:
OS: Lineage 14.1 (latest version for I9505)
Baseband: I9505XXUHPA1
Anyone have any additional suggestions or any way to determine if this is hardware or software issue? I assume this can't be a carrier (locked) issue since it is not detecting the card at all.
If stock also does this then it heavily suggests a hardware issue.
How many sims have you tried with the same results?
Have you tested if microSD is working?

This problem is almost certainly a hardware issue in that the SIM card tray has likely failed. The good news is that replacement trays should be relatively inexpensive on Amazon, and from personal experience easy to replace. Just make sure to re-use the foam pad that sits on top of the connector on the original tray, as the phone's back presses down on that pad, preventing the connector from moving while in use.

I have only tried the single SIM which is working in several other phones, but I will try different SIM today. Good suggestion. Maybe the carrier chip is not lining up right or something. I will let you know if it works.
The micro SD slot is working fine.
