FIX- SIM card removed error- Android/Galaxy Note 4. #28

[@vecinalfish]

Worked like a charm so far 1 year has passed and no error!

[@arboludo]

My phone Galaxy Note 4 SM N910T with Android 6.0.1 was fixed with this procedure on January 2019! The error was restarting my phone 2 to 3 times an hour and now it is working fine. Thanks for your kindness by making this video.

[@derrickmays7817]

Worked for my Note 6 twice. First fix lasted about 3 months, easily corrected in those few steps.

[@benkluver]

My Note 5 was having the same issue randomly but it's been a month now and no error. Super simple fix. Thanks for the video!

[@mysimplefix]

+ben kluver I'm glad this helped!

[@vecinalfish]

That means its permanent and it happened cuz of a software update

[@kavish25]

It worked for me!! I've had this error multiple times a day on my Note 5. Thanks to this cache wipe the error is now gone for 4 days!!

[@Shinigami34]

Was so worried cause my note 4 wasn't detecting my sim card . Caught up to this video and did the same steps you did . It didnt worked but then scrolled down the comments and there you also had mentioned to re-installing the sim , I did and yay it worked . Thank, you very much sir .

[@tjfpinder]

I tried all the other solution first and none of them worked, this worked and has been stable since, thank you very much

[@friewibu]

After a second try, the phone runs stable for two weeks now. Thanks for this video

[@mysimplefix]

+friewibu that's great! Thanks for posting.

[@vecinalfish]

It runned stable forever cuz 1 year passed and no error

[@RomainDepin]

Thank you very much! I still get the error, but much less ! Actually, i noticed that i didn't updated the OS since 2015, when i bought the phone. The phone actually asked me to install the update several times in a row (maybe 3 or 4 times), so i was a bit confused thinking that it couldn't update well... but in the end it was finally well updated to the latest Android version for my phone, and even if i still get the SIM card error, it's sooo much less than before! When i think that the Customer Service of Samsung directly told me it was the motherboard's problem and i had to change it (half the price of the phone when i bought it) or get a new phone... i'm quite disappointed ! Thanks again, i can still use my phone! :)

[@bleuenberger13]

Thank you so much... I have been dealing with this for MONTHS!

[@numanoid17]

Wow! Thank You sir! Worked for me too! I just had an update a couple of weeks ago and this issue suddenly appeared. Thank you for such a simple fix!

[@rabbie1973]

So far, so good. I haven't gotten the error message all day :)

[@vecinalfish]

Yeah 1 year passed and i didnt even get a single error

[@jennifersisley1888]

this helped me !! everyday I was getting an invalid Sims card. restart phone and it would hangup on people when I was on the phone with them. I had to keep restarting it. thank you ! it completely changed my phone :)

[@challai1159]

I have a Note 5, but it worked just as well. Thank you so much!

[@elitedaimond8232]

Same problem. With me. I went to get a new simm card. But now the same error poped up. I tried this method, but within 5 minutes it popup.

[@javedakram9022]

I performed it on grand prime but it does not work at all . Whereas it clear cache partition . . Again show msg sim card removed ?

[@astro4travel]

Thanks for this. I have been having the problem ever since Android upgrade. This took care of the problem. Easy fix!

[@mysimplefix]

IMPORTANT! Please update ALL your apps on your device in the Google Play Store. More than once this "sim card removed" error or "sim card not detected" error was fixed by updating a buggy app. Remember to reboot your phone afterwards.

[@ciskokidd5980]

Sounds good as the show method is not working for me Thanks for the time

[@vitalsoul6382]

Mysimplefix I

[@syedarida4174]

I tried everything and my phone is not even rebootinf what should i do?

[@winifer2306]

Everytime my phone is restarted, it has a message no sim card is inserted. If I turn off the phone, take the sim in and out and turn on a few time (wish for luck, of course). Then it would find the sim card and work fine. AT&T did send a message saying that I need a new sim card. This Note 4 is brand new, I only had it for 2 days. The sim works totally fine with my Note 2. Please help. I just want to know if it is the phone's problem so I can return it or I just really do need a new sim card. I tried your technique and it did not work. Thank you so much.

[@mysimplefix]

if the phone is 2 days old, and AT&T suggests a new sim, I would try first make sure ALL Google Play updates are complete using the Play store on your device., Then, if it still doesn't work (even after the cache partition is wiped), then I would return the phone for warranty.

[@mysimplefix]

And of course try a new sim card

[@winifer2306]

Mysimplefix Thank you for replying. I went to AT&T and got a new phone. It has been working well so far.

[@angiemarquez1534]

Thank you! This definitely helped! I have a Galaxy Note 5 and kept getting the error message. It was extremely frustrating. -Angie

[@DirtyMoneyBeatz]

same problem ,at the top of the screen on my note 4 there is writtten "no sim card/emergency calls only " and my phone needed restart. i did what you say on this video , updated all my apps from google play store but it still not fixed , please help me if u can . my android version is 6.0.1

[@mysimplefix]

+Dirty Money I wish I had an answer for you.. Please let us know what it was for you. Did you try removing and reinstalling your SIM card?

[@DirtyMoneyBeatz]

thank you for answering , yes i tried re installing , and i put other sim to my phone and also put my sim to other phone it works, but in my note 4 it still show no sim card, i updated all apps from galaxy store and google play store ,what it can be ? please if you can help with something let me know

[@friewibu]

did you find any solution so far?

[@mysimplefix]

Dirty Money were you able to find a solution to your issue with your note 4?

[@DirtyMoneyBeatz]

sorry for late reply , bro i gave it to service , they repeared it hell know, as soon as i got my cellphone back i sold it , it worked

[@jjanolek]

It worked on my Note4, Thanks so much!!

[@Skurtz901]

i had thos problem with lg g3 and noticed that it only did that when i used a specific battery. (i have 3) i threw that battery away and have been swirching the 2 batteries i have right now and havent had this happen anymore.

[@hidayahsahudi]

i also have same problem with my LG G3. is it only changing the battery??

[@Skurtz901]

hidayahsahudi it fixed it for a while but it came back. It dosent happen as often as it did before though.

[@samad0289]

Thank you so much! You just gave new life to my Note 4 ☺️

[@brianmitchell7362]

Thank you so much! It is working fine now. It hasn't been an hour yet, but it seems to have helped!

[@chemist-man]

i did that but the problem still appear in my note4 and makes my phone keep restart more than 15 times on samsung logo and then turn on . this happen after that message . the problem in hardware or software or bad connection between simcard slot and motherboard? this happens once everyday

[@mysimplefix]

+Astro boy if your phone is rebooting, your problem is likely a battery. I've gone through 3 batteries so far on my note 4! I'm actually responding to you right now on it. To rule out the battery, plug your phone into the stock charger that came with your phone. Does your phone immediately stop rebooting? If it does then it's likely the battery. Here's what I found here... kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4C3q4Ggdpyhqbc

[@asyrafnets]

does this work on samsung note 3 also? pls reply

[@patriciatamang546]

I've got the same problem. I've had S4 and it says that no Sim inserted. so I need to update all my apps then reboot then wipe cache ? then after that I need to update the software? I'm confuse. please help me. thanks. I think it happen when I update the software.

[@mysimplefix]

+Patricia Tamang OK, if you updated the software on your phone then after the update, then I would wipe the cache partition. The update all your Google play store apps. Please let us know how you made out.

[@sp00nt00ns1]

Thanks! Will this also help with the Bluetooth disconnecting constantly from my Auto since the last update?

[@mysimplefix]

+Daryl Weatherspoon I honestly don't know about that. But the procedure won't hurt if you do it.

[@sp00nt00ns1]

I'll let you know how it goes, thanks again...

[@brennanrodriguez4983]

Hello I need your help I just got a Msi ge72 Apache 6qd for Christmas everything's fine except when I'm playing a game randomly airplane mode turns on by itself or when I'm just doing anything it happens idk what to do its Windows 10 and it's not my internet

[@mysimplefix]

If airplane mode only comes on while playing a game, but does not come in at any other time, I would think there's a driver conflict, or there's a glitch in that game (and your hardware). There may be an update patch on its way if you are 1 of many with the same problem. Check the forums on the game makers website or the faq on the game makers website and post your problem there. That's where I would start.

[@msantosuk]

worked with the S5, but If you remove the Sim Card msg come back, need to do the procedure again.

[@micia0225]

Thanks! This fixed the problem with my Note4.

[@susanprimus259]

I getting this problem to can it work with the Samsung S4?

[@markiathompson1982]

Susan Primus same

[@yvonnebarnes1895]

Try a small piece of tape over the sim to add more weight..worked for me

[@manzaads8574]

It did work for my Note 4, but as soon as I connect to wifi or mobile data the same problem occurs. The phone also gets very hot and uses a lot of battery life. Seems the problem started after I installed latest updates for the phone. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks.

[@mysimplefix]

+Cassie INKL it sure sounds to me like there is a rogue app running on your phone. The tough part is identifying it. All I can suggest (after the cache partition of your device has been cleared), is to keep visiting your Google Play store on your device and keep checking for updates for your apps. In all likeliness, you won't be alone with this problem.

[@manzaads8574]

Thanks for that information. I've cleared the cache partition & the problem seems to have been solved. Phew! I'm happy.

[@genewolfrey4076]

I have a note 4 and it says no sim card all the time. I can go a few weeks without it doing it. Then it'll start doing it again. Sometimes multiple times a day. Then it might go a few weeks without doing it again. It gets very frustrating.

[@citaborea]

Just performed this. So far, so good. :) update the next day - sorry but I got "SIM card removed" again today. Dang. Was hoping for a fix. :( Any update?

[@vecinalfish]

It happens again but less but thank god It doesnt happen to me but it does always when i play roblox now i dont play it anymore cuz of the bad updates they get

[@johngraboski]

What to do if it keeps doing this following your procedure? Wish me luck and thanks for posting!

[@ricardohernadez4525]

Having that problem on a Note 5. Would this work on the 5 also?

[@mysimplefix]

Someone else needs to voice in here who has one. (mine is a Note 4).

[@GamerRizzler4000]

i have not tried yet

[@fg5236]

i have this problem on s6 edge plus and i did this and still i have the problem, any tips or soluotion?

[@mysimplefix]

Have you just updated your operating system software?

[@malakmostafa1550]

Do this delete what is on the phone .. please answer ?..

[@vecinalfish]

Its wipe cache partition not data idiot

[@jlp2414]

How about a Samsung Grand Prime? Think this solution will work?

[@mysimplefix]

Try it!

[@mohamadalthani9487]

Thank you for your tip , you sure saved the day .

[@msdss]

So far, so good. Thanks!

[@khalidalmaktary4960]

Thanks a lot, that was helpful for my galaxy s4.

[@jinx8695]

i can't do it on my lg g3. i try pressing volume up and power button and it just turns on the phone

[@numbah12time]

Samsung only

[@mars-cu1zy]

I just tried this today, hoepfully it works! thanks for the video :)

[@suhailahmed1687]

can I do this with Samsung S4

[@mysimplefix]

+Suhail Ahmed yes absolutely!

[@markiathompson1982]

Mysimplefix I hope

[@EhsanAmini]

Thanks for the informative video. I tried it on my Galaxy A5. Everything went as described in your video, but the problem was not solved. As soon as I rebooted the system, I got the message again. I have not updated my Android recently (only the installed apps, not the OS itself). When I boot up in safe mode, it is fine for a few minutes, but then it comes back again.

[@mysimplefix]

There is a possibility that your SIM card is defective, or your phone has a connection issue to your SIM card. Have you tried powering off your phone, carefully removing your SIM card, and re inserting the card again?

[@EhsanAmini]

yep, I installed the latest updates to no avail. I also removed the sim card and the sd card, then carefully replaced the sim card alone. That didn't solve the issue either. I wonder if it could be related to getting hacked?

[@mysimplefix]

+Ehsan Amini how long have you had the phone? Did you install a custom Rom recently?

[@EhsanAmini]

Thanks for following up on me. I have had it for about a year, and except for dropping it a few times, I am aware of no maltreatment to it. The annoying "sim card removed message" has not appeared in the past half hour, unless I try to make a call, at which point I first get a "not registered on the network". I have heard this could be due to a loosened sim tray. I am gonna have to test my sim on other phones, and test another sim on this phone to figure out what's going on.

[@mysimplefix]

Ehsan Amini that sounds like a great method to eliminate what's causing your issue. Please post your results after if you can. Thanks.

[@toddhazell925]

So far, 2 days have passed and have not had a "no sim" message or reboot 😊

[@samuellucca2322]

i guess Im pretty off topic but does anybody know of a good site to watch new movies online ?

[@matthiasgarrett669]

@Samuel Lucca lately I have been using Flixzone. Just search on google for it :)

[@vecinalfish]

@@samuellucca2322 my family cinema is a good one they have so many movies they even have spiderman no way home But the free trial only lasts 7 days My service already expired!

[@pig4766]

Legend thank you! I would’ve died without my phone!

[@matejlj]

It helped for me to. But what does that even mean, to delete cache?

[@mysimplefix]

+Matej Bukovec the cache partition is a place where the operating system (in this case the Android operating system) TEMPORARILY places pieces of information it uses to perform tasks. The operating system reads and writes to this "cache" which allows the system to operate at a faster, and more efficient pace. The problem is, over time, with updates to software on your device, certain pieces of information stored in that cache partition may become corrupt, outdated, or may lead the operating system to running into error situations. This is why clearing the cache partition once in awhile is good to do to resolve possible conflicts that your phone or device may be experiencing.

[@matejlj]

+Mysimplefix Thank you for the swift answer!

[@mysimplefix]

You're welcome. Hopefully things work out for your phone.

[@anna-marienel1654]

I tried it several times its stil doing the same😔

[@gradydoran4738]

still early, but my Note 5 wouldn't run for 5 minutes. Started out of nowhere... did it like 5 times in a row. I cleared the cache.... 2 hours running normal. I will respond again should it fail eventually. THANKS!

[@joededetailer4578]

I'm having the same problem all a week now and I just watched your video and I have try it and isn't working

[@herrghazzawi4384]

i don't have a memory card and it force me to restart whyyyyy ???

[@kugo8842]

how do i do this for lg class???

[@mysimplefix]

+kobehbeef I don't have any newer LGs to try. So I Google searched "wipe cache partition LG Class" and brought up results which are different from what I showed in the video. The first result was cellphoneforums.net/lg/t382709-lg-class-clear-app-cache-data%3B-wipe-cache-partition%3B-reboot-safe-mode.html#axzz4IIVRD6Jn I DO NOT KNOW if this is the correct procedure, but maybe the info will help you.

[@friewibu]

Unfortunately this method didn't work for my Note 4. I got this phone half a year ago and everything was running fine until I performed an update yesterday. The buildnumber is now: MMB29M.N910FXXS1DPJ3 Since that I get this "sim card error" message every 5 to 10 min and have to restart the phone

[@friewibu]

Update: after a second run of this procedure it worked

[@alhassnadrammeh3180]

Thanks this was very useful.

[@franciscohernandez-oh8rt]

same for lg g3?

[@metal007corebitch]

My LG G3 started doing it 7 days ago and seriously it is so frustrating. I factory reset it as well but nothing works. I want to try this method too but just want to know if someone tried it already or not. Let me know if you find out anything mate.

[@darc1027]

Does this method work of you are rooted

[@mysimplefix]

+Darc 1027 if your cache partition has corrupt information in it, then yes this will work.

[@gayatrisolanke1375]

my volume up and low buttons are not working??then what can I do??😭😭😭😭

[@Marc-wk7bi]

None of this worked for me, I believe it is a hardware issue. What I did was remove my SIM card, press down a little on the metal shroud that holds the SIM card in place, and put Scotch tape on top of the SIM card to make it thicker, trim excess, and then reinsert it. I was getting the warning 5 to 10 times a day and now I've been going about a day and a half with no warnings and no errors

[@badlyb9435]

It's doesn't wanna work on my Samsung j5

[@suhailahmed1687]

It doesn't work on my s4. 😢

[@she2399]

it work 😄I was going crazy 😖 thanks

[@toddhazell925]

As to date, I've updated all my apps before doing this fix, but it still occurred. My next move was to take the sim out and with a pencil eraser I rubbed it over all the contact surface of the sim and put some sticky/cello tape on the back of the sim to just slightly increase the thickness of the sim to add more pressure to the contact pins, and so far so good, no resets......

[@mysimplefix]
