Re: N9 turns off when SIM card is inserted
 

All of a sudden my N9 switched off and i am facing the same issue. without sim card the phone works, if i insert the sim the phone switches off, even when i dial 112 without sim the phone switches off.

How did you guys fix it. Please help me :confused:

hi, i am also facing same problem. as you said there was some line connection problem. if possible can you tell me where specifically was the damage. and did you replace any part?

Re: N9 turns off when SIM card is inserted
 

The pins that connect to the sim r damage. There is a tiny switch inside the N9 to recognise SIM. Perhaps it doesn't work properly anymore. Punched SIMs can shortcut. You can open the device following these instructions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9u7r4j0atU … If you don't dare yourself, let someone do it 4U.
These links will b handy

What do you mean by Line problem and RF power amplifier problems. :confused: :confused: :confused: ... I am facing same problem.....my n9 turns off when sim card is inserted or calling emergengy no. ..:(:(

Re: N9 turns off when SIM card is inserted
 

Do you mean to say a punched sim (as in, a normal sim cut to a micro sim) is bound to make this happen? I have a punched out sim. That's why I am asking.

I got the phone repaired once. Within a week, I was back to square one. May be this time I should try with a brand-new micro sim then?

Bump! My perfectly new N9 from China just had this issue. Where supposed to be this circuit shortcut?

Re: N9 turns off when SIM card is inserted
 

And now I have N9 with the same problem. Did anybody tried to remove SIM circuit and add jumpers in its place like on insert sim solution in attached picture?

Re: N9 turns off when SIM card is inserted
 

I faced this problem due to a bad battery.
If the phone was charged less than 80% and I inserted a sim/left flight mode, it claimed "Battery empty, 4% left" "biuuu biuuuu" OFF.
Without leaving flight mode it survived up to 5 days, but the voltage drop was apparently to much.

Replaced the battery which a new one and now I works perfectly.

I had the same problem as Macros with a completely unrelated phone. Answer a call at the battery level below 95% and the sound quality was appalling. Do the same at 75% or lower and BANG! - a reboot. A new battery solved the problem.
