Portege R500 with 3G - Instructions for the insertion of the SIM card

I have a model PPR50E R500 which I think has built in 3G. Howevere I can't find documentation on how to insert a SIM card. One of the other model seems to suggest that the SIM card is inserted behind the keyboard. Can someone point me to some training documents please?

Unfortunately there is no documentation available. (Maybe in the user manual, but if there is nothing, then you won´t find anything)

Here are some instructions on how to swap the SIM card on a Portégé R400, so I think that since both machines are quite similar, that the guidelines would apply to the R500 too:

Perform the following steps to insert/remove the SIM card:

1. close the machine OFF completely. Make sure that the POWER LED is not lit.
2. remove the AC adapter, battery and all connected cables/devices.
3. open the screen.
4. remove the keyboard cover with a small screwdriver flat blade in the small hole on the edge of the cover and pulling gently out.
5. remove the two screws that hold the keyboard and knock it gently over the keyboard. (Use a small cross-slot screwdriver to unscrew the two screws).
6. to activate the keyboard down, take the upper end of the keyboard, pull gently upwards and place the keyboard with the keys down on the palmrest of your machine.

* ATTENTION: *.

{color: #ff0000} + do not touch the keys on the keyboard to return back. Make sure that you hold the keyboard on both sides and ask gently down on the palmrest. +
+ The keyboard is connected to the machine with a flat cable. Avoid pulling the cable on the connector or damage! +
+ Avoid dropping objects (such as paper clips, etc.) inside the machine. A metallic object can cause a short circuit on the motherboard, which would cause serious damage to your machine. +

7. search the card slot SIM on the upper right corner of the machine.
8. slide the locking mechanism of the SIM card with the fingernails or a small object slot to the left to unlock. (You can also use a small flat blade screwdriver)
9 pull gently until on the SIM card slot.
(10 a) Insertion: insert the card into the SIM card slot. The filings of the SIM card must show an upside.
(b) removal: remove the SIM card from the slot

11 turn the slot down and block it by sliding the lock to the right.
12 insert the keyboard by placing the clips on the bottom of the keyboard into the grooves on the top of the palm rest. Rabat the keyboard gently downwards and fix it by screwing the screws into the holes. Make sure that no screws were dropped on the inside of the machine!
13 install the support of keyboard on its position and push down to fix its position.
14 attach the adapter sector, battery and all cables/devices.
15 enable you wireless device by pressing "FN + F8" when you work on Windows.

* I must warn you, it s on your own risk and if you do not feel comfortable with the installation procedure can put the machine to an authorized Service provider, which can make the installation of the SIM card for you.*

Good luck my friend :)

    FaceTime is forbidden by the law in Saudi Arabia and the UNITED Arab Emirates and is removed from iPhones sold in other countries of the Middle East, if they are used outside the country where they were originally sold. If you plan to use an iPhone outside the Middle East, then don't buy it in the Middle East. The one you bought there FaceTime was illegally imported from another region and sold it.

  • Portege R500 does not start from the XP CD

    My basic problem is the following - I have a Portege r500 with Vista on it. I'm moving from Vista to XP Pro, but when I put a bootable XP installation CD in the drive, it turns, looking around for awhile and then I get a blank screen with a cursor blinking on it.

    Now, I've done this before, so I know that something is supposed to happen, but nothing don't. And I tried 3 well-known installation CD, is not a problem of CD. Do I need some update BIOS/firmware to boot from the CD on this thing? Or am I missing something?

    Help!

    Thank you.

    Often the Portege R500 should be able to boot from the CD/DVD drive and should begin the procedure of installation of the CD Win XP SP2 installation.

    But it is a tricky thing.
    The Portege R500 needs an Intel (r) Matrix Storage Manager (iMSM). This iMSM is necessary to recognize the HARD drive and install Win Xp on the HARD drive.

    I recommend you and create a new CD of Win XP starting with software called nLite to integrate the SP2 of Microsoft and Intel Matrix Storage Manager (iMSM) in Win XP.

    You can then use this CD for installation.

  • Module 3G on Portege R500 with WinXP

    Hello

    I am stuggling with a R500, equipped of the 3G module, on which I have installed XP SP2 from scratch: I downloaded the Vista drivers for the 3 G module, which seem to settle fine and then installed the SW. MobiLink but when I run it, the SIM card is seen very well, but then I get "The Radio is off", so this is not...
    Problem drivers?

    Any idea?
    Another strange thing is that the wireless keyboard shortcut does not work.
    Thank you

    HM, it's really strange that the doesn´t wireless keyboard shortcut works...

    Have you tried the "FN + F8" key combination? Usually, it is the combination of keys to activate the 3G communication. Please try if not already done.

    Comments would be appreciated since your machine is really new and it would be interesting if it works. If you have installed the SIM card properly, it should work!

    Hello norman - 99,.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! Congratulations on your first computer, which should be exciting and scary at the same time!

    I see that you are interested in a guide to all the different copy settings and options for your Photosmart HP 5520, there is a User Guide that has information about the copy feature, you will find that here: HP Photosmart 5520 series User Guide on pages 21-24. I know you are probably looking for more information, although not available in the manual, I took the lead and went through the front for you and made a list for you, you'll find it attached (at the bottom of this post) in this way you can keep it for future reference.

    I hope this has been helpful, please let me know if you need more help.

    You will need a bigger c. For everything that you can move there will be 10 things, you can't. Software installation puts the huge amounts of information in the Windows Installer on C database.

  • How to insert the SIM card into the flame

    Hello

    I'm trying to put my SIM card in a phone of flame, but I don't know how to do it.

    I try to place the card in the slot, but the slot is higher than the card, I do not know if I put the card good or bad. The message still says "SIM not detected." Can I restart the device every time I slightly move the SIM card to force recognition?
    I have to do something else with the SIM card?

    PS: The flame brochure says in 2 different places ("see Insert or remove the SIM card '), but this article does not appear in the brochure.

    Hi xabitubbi,

    No, the flame device uses a SIM to normal size. Yours is a micro-SIM.

    You should contact your operator and ask for a normal size SIM card that fits on the device of the flame.

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

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

    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. For more information, contact Apple.

    < re-titled by host >

    Not sure what your question is. The error message is clear: the device is locked to another carrier. It must be unlocked before you can use the SIM card, you try to use. Contact the carrier to get it resolved. Only they can help you with this.

    See you soon,.
