Re: Faulty N900
 

Thanks for the tip ...
I'll try with another SIM but I don't think I'll bother Quim with that !

I hope it doesn't become a widespread problem !

Re: Faulty N900
 

nearly same issue here since 3rd or 4th Dec. Uninstalled all 3-Party Software, installed a few backups, still encountering the same Issue.

Sometimes, it says no simcard in the phone.
Or there is no connection to the provider (no crossed sim card)

To resolve the issue, i have to do a few restarts of the phone.
or go to offline<->online Mode a few times
or put out the battery.

After a few minutes or several hours same issue occurs again.

Perhaps the metal contacts are bent? Also, see if your carrier can replace your SIM card, i've seen some old cards that had quite a dent on each of the metal pads from the years against the little springed metal prongs the mobile had in the interface.

could just be a faulty sim card. If I recall had this issue losing signal and intermittent sim card error.

spoke with my network provider and explained to them that if I put my sim card in another phone it works fine, they basically said that I had my sim card for about 2 years and it was the most likely reason and it was!!
