Built-in SIM card problem

Anyone heading the question where they took contact with care of apple and the representative on the other end does not have the product you are calling for?

I recently had to replace my iPad 9.7 Pro at a local Apple store warranty. There was a glimmer of hope in the quadrant display cooer right. It was not extreme, but once I have the sewing, my eyes always went straight to the it later. Given that the unit was only a few months, that I wasn't old too satisfied to "just deal with it" then I won him in and ultimately they replaced. There is one thing that I like Apple, they really take care of their customers. Then I proceeded to drive home and get on the phone with AT & T to activate it, because the iPad was originally purchased at home and put on my plan.

After getting nowhere with AT & T customer service they transferred me to Apple Care because I didn't have an ICCID under settings/general/to words. After connecting the Apple Care representative I explained the problem. To my surprise, he had no idea on the SIM Apple integrated and kept asking me where was my old SIM and I need one to get cellular service. Now, I knew that this was not correct and I've tried very carefully explain that there is no SIM external it was enabled on the embedded SIM card, however, they guy fought me on it and sounded quite confused throughout the call. I also tried to activate it under the iPad option settings/cell/Add cell phone carrier/transfer again. This option does not work for me, because it has to do with a different plan type (I have or the representative didn't know) he says also my user name and password are incorrect, but it wasn't. I logged in full on the site without problem. As a result of this he told me to change my password for AT & T and that has not worked, it wouldn't have worked anyway, but now I know, it's just so that you can see the traces of events here. I was then left on hold for 15 minutes be say I have to call my service provider.

Just for the forum of reference for the iPad all Pro (to the United States at least) are made with a built-in SIM card, but also have a nano SIM tray for travel abroad. For those who don't know no way "embarked", it is built in the electronic device and is not removable. Why do that and do all sorts of confusion? It is designed to allow a smaller unit and is supposed to give more options for the selection of a carrier.

To resolve this problem, I took my replaced iPad 9.7 Pro at my local AT & T store the next day (today) to configure the built-in SIM card. They had me past in less than 5 minutes. Namely, if someone runs into his question, you need to tell the person you talking if theres no ICCID then its either one wifi device or if you are using a device with a built-in SIM card. They will have the provision to the CSN, which is a very long alphanumeric number located in settings/general/to comments made by verses the low only with the IMEI (obviously).

I'm just surprised that the 'experts' Apple Care had no idea what the hell I was talking about. I am an engineer 'EM and work on industrial equipment. Also, I have a technical support for hardware, software, networks and applications, so I have a bit of history and know how to get my message. I too am a former user of Windows and Android who migrated to apple for its ease of use, robustness and quality, and outstanding customer service. I now own the iPad Pro, mini iPad 9.7 4, Apple TV (3rd generation) and Mac Mini (late 2014). All of which are excellent products that I use every day and that he loves her. I also participates actively in the public beta program Apple with iOS 10 and Sierra of MacOS. Apple, if you listen... Take note that when a supervisor does not know the iPad Pro is manufactured with a built-in SIM, theres a problem.

What do you think?

  • SIM card problems

    Okay so a few hours ago, I picked up my phone and the sim card had just "disassembled" itself, I guess you could say. On the lock screen, it said I had no mobile network connected, I couldn't call someone or text message to anyone. Then at 10 minutes ago he did once again, my way to solve this was to just restart my phone. It was as if the sim card was not in my phone, even if no one went near the sim card because this phone has been replaced in early January. I'm running the new Jelly Bean android, version of the 98.72.16 system. Is this a normal problem or no matter who else encountered this problem and understand what was causing it? Maybe this would be something that I do?

    It seems that the Sim Card is wrong. The first thing I would say is to put the card back in the phone. Power the phone down, take out the SIM card and then put back. Turn on the phone and see if it works well. If you see the problem again just call Verizon CS to 611 and tell them what is happening and they will send you another for free.

    You can go to a corporate Verizon store and get it replaced as well. They must see the problem for themselves in order to help you. If you expain the problem they might just replace anyway.

  • Unlocked IPhone, SIM card is not valid problem

    Hello

    I went to study in the United States for a few months and I bought the iPhone 6s 'apple Store' to the United States.

    After that I came back to Thailand, I can't use my card SIM Thai (AIS network). It appeared that the sim card is not valid.

    I had to call apple care to solve the problem for me and after gave them my IMEI, they told me to contact verizon wireless to unlock my phone.

    So far, I confused altogether since I bought the Apple Store iphone, not Verizon.

    However, I contacted verizon wireless and even once, after gave them my IMEI, they said that since

    the unit was purchased third-party (which is apple Store) so that the device has not been locked by their network.

    I tried to restore my device so many times and also with the mode of recovery, but it still can not use.

    I checked with APPLE and they said that my device is unlocked model.

    Note that first sim that I plug when I got this device is ATT SIM card.

    I was contacted to ATT and they also said that my device has not been locked

    through their network.

    Please give me suggestions on how to solve this problem

    It seems that if you have the iPhone version, intended for use on the Verizon network. If so, it is not locked. However, this does not mean that it will work on the network in your country.  Phones, designed to run on the Verizon network use strips of LTE 13, 4 and 2. It seems that the AIS uses 3 and 1.

  • iPad2 and problem with the SIM card after update

    even after the 9.3.1 last updated continuously having problems with SIM TIM card network.

    I changed and I tried with another SIM card but the problem remains.

    I did have all those problems with 9.2.1.

    Apple could intervene and solve these problems? Otherwise, I think it's better to make a return to the old 9.2.1.

    Thank you

    Do you see the network? and is it strong enough?

  • Software problem or SIM card reader?

    Hello

    My brother just bought a new iPhone SE. Like his old iPhone 4 was unnecessary, he gave it to me.

    He has deleted all the data, so it was a whole new iPhone 4 running under 7.1.2

    Unfortunately, that he used a nano SIM with an adapter and when he took the set, things were not going smoothly and he shot it too strong, maybe because the tray was blocked...

    in any case when I turned on the phone with my SIM card (same provider that he bought the phone of) it keeps saying "no sim". I was unable to activate the phone.

    I launched iTunes, plugged the iPhone: 'no SIM '.

    I tried my SIM own brother who worked before the reset (and also before this 'incident' tray) and it was exactly the same situation.

    Then I also tried DFU restore the phone with iTunes, but it was useless.

    So I'm pretty sure that the SIM card reader has been damaged. But I still hope that this situation might be link to a software problem.

    How can I be sure that the phone detects no SIM card. (I won't call an emergency...)

    Thank you very much! It would have been my first smartphone

    Sounds like a problem of material for me. I doubt it's worth the money to get that repaired, although the phone.

  • What is the problem with my iphone? He says still no service but my sim card works with other phones, after a reboot it says searching until I have to remove and reinsert the sim ive done all what is the factory reset to open the phone to verify any damag

    IPhone 6 64 gb

    iOS 9.2.1

    The phone says no service but the SIM card works, everything in the phone works except the flash still lights up and flickers sometimes before becoming stable but who don't mind not 'that' much, ive tried factory reset and everything, ive also open the unit and looked for signs of damage, the phone knows there is a SIM card in the phone , but he never says the name of the carrier, also after the restart he said looking and does not stop until I have remove and reinsert the SIM card.

    You can restore the factory state after an iTunes backup

    If this does not resolve the problem then you may want to align on Apple or an approved repair shop

    Follow this link, you can read how to start in safe mode:

    https://talk.sonymobile.com/T5/FAQ/How-to-boot-your-phone-into-safe-mode/TD-p/348008/jump-to/first-u...

    In short, safe mode is a special way to start your phone on without load the extensions or app at startup. It's the best way to check what the problem with the phone as no apps will interfere with the operating system and the device.

    If the phone act normally in safe mode then the question is an application installed on your phone.

  • Passport blackBerry problem: Sim Card not detected after several days, reboot needed.

    Hello

    As the title suggests, every other day or two my passport tells me that it cannot detect the Sim Card. If I restart the device, the problem is solved but only for another day or two. I've never had any problem with this card before so I suspect it has something to do with the device. Is anyone know about this problem?

    Kind regards

    Willem

    Here's what I'd do. The next time it happens, power down and remove the SIM card. Reinsert the SIM card and make sure it is fully inserted. Then to test and see if the error occurs again anytime soon.

    I have not had this happen with my passport yet, but I experienced it here and there in the past. Unless the SIM works actually, the removal and reinstallation of the SIM card corrected the problem. Also, I experienced a failure of the SIM card, and it's all or nothing. Perhaps failure of the SIM card can be intermittent, but I doubt it.

    If you get the error again, talk to your operator. They could suggest to try a new SIM card. At least this excludes from the SIM card and tap the device if you get the same problem with a new SIM card.

    Alternatively, you can reinstall the operating system as a troubleshooting step. Yes, you shouldn't do this, but it is set on a software problem.

    If you want to be as certain as you can know if the device is defective, it is my opinion on what to do. Otherwise, you can go ahead and request a warranty Exchange. I try and avoid that, personally and at least to eliminate other possibilities first.

  • BlackBerry Bond IMEI / SIM CARD / unlock problem - HELP

    Hello all, greetings.

    I have a recurring problem to unlock my classic Blackberry.  I have received the handset as a replacement under warranty from 02 and have had it for about 2 weeks, my first handset microphone developed problems.

    The first phone was unlocked by 02 to my free request because I am a customer business, brilliant!  This meant that I could use my favorite SIM in that which is with EE. However, the replacement handset will not unlock.

    02 provided long code for me, I meticulously entered this copied pasted in the SIM unlock screen with the no - 02 inserted SIM card, but the phone will not accept the code.

    I'm at my wit's end and I'm missing features, more the threat of my new phone is unusable if I try another incorrect code.

    I am now on my last attempt to unlock the phone, 02 say they can't support me - is the email I received from them:

  • problem to get internet with SIM card on the probook 6550 b win7 pro 64-bit

    Hello.

    I'm trying to connect to the internet with a SIM card on my Probook 6550 b with win 7 Pro - 64 bit

    I tried an external USB (called Globesurfer icon) device that works on computers running XP, but I can't make it work on mine.

    I tried to put the SIM card directly into the location corresponding to the battery. Nothing happens when I start the computer, and there is only two options in the wizard wireless (WLAN and Bluetooth)

    I tried to download and install a file (called sp53068) on the HP support site which was supposed to install the drivers for internet cell phone. It is a DOS window, and he said a sentence. Then it just closes.
    I also tried to install all the application files that extracts of the sp53068 in c:\swsetup\SP53068, but they have the habit of work.

    Please help me with this problem. Right now this is my only option to connect to the internet from my laptop.

    In advance, thank you for any help.

    Hello. I just wanted to say that the "mystery" is solved. Simply the USB device doesn't work because it only supports cooperative systems up to Win7 32 bit and no further details. I have 64-bit, so it's a 'no-go '. Thanks for you time.
