Install new sim card holder - Desire 816 General

Hello,
I tried cutting my micro sim card to a nano sim card for my HTC desire 816 but I didn't take the different thickness of the card into account. I inserted the sim card into the sim card holder and it got stuck, so I had to pull it out with force. Since then it doesn't read any sim card.
I ordered a replacement sim card holder on eBay. But I can't any instructions as how to install this. Can you guys help me out with this?
Cheers!
Niel

Sim card problems

Try cleaning the contacts on the SIM, or go in for a replacement. Most places will not charge you for a replacement.

[Q] New SIM not recognized

I have N4 from T-Mobile, but I decided to give it to my mother. Since she had standard SIM, we went to her provider and they cut it into micro SIM. But when I insert this new micro SIM card into phone, it isn't recognized. It shows there is no SIM card at all. My card works. Is this a know problem? How can it be fixed?

Cutting isn't perfect, especially with older SIMs... It is entirely possible to render the SIM unusable by cutting it, granted it usually works, especially with newer SIMs, but not always. Verify the contacts match up by comparing to your SIM and if it does then the most likely cause is the cutting ruined the SIM and you will need to contact her provider for a new SIM. There is no known issue with using a cut SIM other than this.

The Nexus 4 doesn't like cut sims. Although they can work, many users have issues.

Moto X Play Dual SIM version Question

Hi, I would like to know if in the dual sim version of this phone, the one SIM card can be swapped with a microSD card.
Thanks in advance.
No, the SIM card tray already has a slot for the micro SD but you can't put in 2 x micro SD.
The tray has 2 X SIM card slot + 1 X micro SD card slot (dual SIM model), single SIM models have a blanking piece of plastic put in the second SIM card slot but the actual tray is identical in all models.

Are all Galaxy S8 devices dual sim if you use the correct tray?

I own a Galaxy S8 (G950F) and I was wondering if I could use a second sim card. I've seen some S8s that have a different sim tray and they can support a sim card with either a second sim card or sd card but my phone's tray on has a sim + sd card tray.
No
No, because with dual SIM phones you'll have software options for the second SIM even if it's not inserted. The non-dual SIM phones don't have that.
