Invalid SIM

HHello all!

I am trying to enter a sim card into a unlocked iPhone4s, but it says invalid sim?

Could someone help?

If you see a SIM card not valid error message, then the device is not unlocked.

    After inserting the sim card it shows network and seems ok. but after awhile my iphone5 shows invalid sim. IM facing this problem for the last month and half. can anyone suggest me on this subject?

    It could be the current SIM card, or it could be the settings of operating system or to the carrier.

    Try going into settings > general > all. After a few seconds you will get a prompt to update if it is available.

    If there isn't, I'll try to do a backup and restore then the device in iTunes to install a new copy of the software, then set it up as a new phone for a day to test it.

    If after you restore the phone again to do, try to get a new SIM card from your operator.

  • Invalid SIM on the iPhone to Verizon unlocked replacement

    I had an iPhone 6s recently, but lately I cracked the screen, and when I went to Apple Store, they have kindly provided a new phone replacement rather than a replacement of the screen because, they said, replacements of the screen for the s 6 was not yet available.  Then, everything worked fine in the United States for a month or two, but now I came in another country, I put in another known working SIM card, and he at first said "Activation required" (while on another iPhone with the same SIM card it comes immediately started to use the SIM very well).  When I went through the first few steps of activation, he set up a screen that says

    Invalid SIM

    The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.

    I then called Verizon and they told me that they do not block iPhones. They said I need to contact Apple.  I called Apple Care, and the person I spoke made me do restore itunes procedure, which incidentally is extremely painful, since took hours and many attempts due to a combination of buggy Internet connection in the hotel, who need to download a set of 2 GB update, iTunes is not not able to resume an interrupted download.  After restoring to iTunes, it gave me the same problem.

    When I called Apple, I asked if the person did not have this problem, and he said he was and that is how solve you that problem, but I don't think he really was.  He is described very well in this other discussion here: Re: SIM not valid but unlocked?

    The message said things need to go to support second-level or senior engineer, etc. and I tried to use that language, but after that just get after triage, I got was a front-line guy who claimed that he could solve this problem. But his "miracle" did nothing.  He also responded when I asked how it happened is something 'glitched' when I put SIM card. but that has been proved wrong when I restored it from a backup that was from the day before my trip, and improved anything.

    Why can't Apple Care reps learn more about this problem and immediately he effectively treat or move users to someone who can? Does anyone know of no official statement of this problem and how to deal from Apple?

    I still support *, until the Sun come up in Cupertino. I'll keep you posted when / if it is resolved.

    Follow-up on my experience since the first post: return of the person to Apple Care kindly called me the next day, and when I pointed out that the same thing happened after I did the restore itunes procedure, but that it has not fixed the problem, he said he had to check with some people there. Then he'll be back on the line and said that they would have to make some changes that can last a few minutes or a few hours to change the 'activation policy.  Then he reminded me a little later and said that I should now make the procedure of restore itunes once more and that should not require downloading 2 GB this time, so it should go a lot faster (and no need to retry), and it should work really this time.  He was right; now it's working.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry phones showing invalid sim.

    Any ideas... phone showing "invalid sim" and so out of action... even at 3 phones different blackberry still ok when put on a blackberry not. Phone of her husband so no access to email, contacts, etc without sim works fine. Thanks in advance. Assuming that we need a supplier to replace the sim card?

    Hello! If the sim card is old, you might need replacement. A sim card error message that does not resolve with a soft or hard, starting usually indicates a problem with the SIM itself.  Do you know if the sim card is 32 k or 64 k? The only difference between the two (as far as I know), is that the 64 k can automatically detect the network stronger. If I were you, I had to contact my operator to replace the sim card.

  • Invalid SIM card after updating iOS 9.3

    Hi guys,.

    I use an iPhone 5. Today, after updating to the latest iOS 9.3 the following problem occurs:

    My iPhone 5 is 'never locked' one, the sim card also works - checked on my other phone.

    This sim card is a Bulgarian operator (which sells iPhones), and now I use their service to roaming so at Berlin, Germany.

    When I insert my sim card German, the iPhone works.

    This problem is so stupid and boring!

    Please guys, give me an advice what I would do.

    Thank you

    Ivan

    Activate the phone using a German map, the Bulgarian card and continue to use your phone.

  • SIM card not valid, how to unlock using the carrier?

    I got an iPhone while I was in Canada with Fido and I used it for 2 years (my contract with them is over) but now I traveled to Costa Rica and my travel bag with Fido is finished thus and I now need to use a new Costa Rica SIM card but this is the message I got when I tried to install the new SIM card :

    "Invalid SIM".

    The SIM card that you have currently installed in this iPhone is a carrier that is not supported in the title of the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This isn't a problem with the hardware with the iPhone. Please insert a different SIM card of a carrier supported or to ask that this iPhone be unlocked by your operator. Please contact Apple for more information. »

    What should I do? I assumed that it was a good place to start to ask questions about it.

    You contact Fido and find out if they offer release and if this phone is eligible for it.

    Only the carrier that it has locked may authorize to release.
