[Q] (help) sim card full message but no contact/messages on sim card storage

Hi.
I have recently gotten a tmo galaxy note 4.
For some reason, I started getting
'sim card full - please delete messages on sim card storage '. Every 30 minutes.
But when I checked, there were no messages or contacts for me to delete.
I searched on Google but it seems like only solution puerile aww giving is just to delete messages.
Does anybody know a fix for this issue? Or any experience? Thanks.

BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S

I started having the same issue today. My SIM is new with no contacts or messages stored on it.

Same here
I'm having the same issue. New note 4, new Sim card with only 1 message on it referencing OTA ok. Had anyone found a fix to this annoying message?

I had the same issue... Download an app which can clean any messages from your sim card. If there are no messages to clean, turn off your phone and take out the sim card. Wipe gently and put the sim card back ensuring that it is seated properly. Even a small change in seating the sim card can give you that message , especially if you dropped the phone recently

yes - i dropped my phone - they error came up - simply remove sim card - clean a bit and put it back in should fix the problem - it worked for me - it had for 2 days - then dropped, then msg apppeard - cleaned it, not im good.

My ex just had this issue. She had to get a couple new Sims before the problem went away.

Same exact problem here.. I'm glad I'm not the only one getting annoyed with the Flippin SIM message. My issues didn't start until I received a new sim card, which was just replaced YESTERDAY! I was received "Network or SIM card error" and then my calls were being fwd to lala land. I'm really getting pissed at this stupid phone..... I want my N:crying:3 back!!!

[Q] Nano sim activation through Verizon - insight needed

I'm unsure if my problem has to do with Verizon or if I need to run a factory reset or try other options. Here's my story:
As soon as the phone arrived today, I unlocked, rooted, and flashed TWRP. No sim was in at any point since I didn't have a nano sim to use for it.
I tried cutting my Galaxy Nexus micro sim into a nano sim (apparently this works for some people), but the N6 states "no sim card - no service" so I don't think it worked.
Went to a Verizon store and got a nano sim for 28 cents, but the clerk couldn't activate it or bind it to my account since Verizon doesn't have the N6 IMEI numbers in their database. He told me to call support. Support was actually helpful, somewhat knowledgeable at least, and tried to activate the sim card over the phone.
Apparently the sim is pending activation from the phone, but I'm still getting the "no sim card - no service" errors. Does anyone know if this error means that it can't connect to the network, or if the phone thinks the sim is physically missing? There seems to be only one way to add the sim to the little tray as far as I can tell (gold face up, matched corner).
Has anyone else had similar issues? Should I try reverting (unroot/stock recovery/etc)? I'm not sure what the best approach is to activate the sim as I'm uncertain if the issue is still with Verizon or the N6.
EDIT: Everything is working now. For those of you moving from a phone with a micro sim, all you need to do is:
1. Cut the micro card down to the size of a nano
2. Drop it in your nexus6
3. Make sure wifi is off if you've already run through the setup. This was my mistake!
4. Give it a few minutes and you'll see the mobile icon flash LTE
It may help if you change your mobile network settings to LTE preferred.

Same thing happened to me. Did you try spinning the sim card around? The notched corner didn't look so much like a notch by the time I was done trimming...

Interesting. I trimmed off all the white plastic on the left and right sides so that I can rotate it or even flip it over. Going to try a few permutations... nothing yet. That's all it took eh?

That's all it took for me. Everything works. Data, voice, sms,mms... Everything.:good:

Still no dice. The gold face should be face up, right? I noticed that after a few minutes the error changes to "selected network unavailable", so maybe I'm putting it in right but now its just not being registered.

So far in my experience that message means you need to nuke and repave, including userdata.....YMMV
EDIT: Probably easier to get a new SIM from VZW, thats what I did

Thanks, I'll try a factory reset. I'm only running stock... can't imagine root or custom recovery would prevent the sim from being recognized. Perhaps when you click "skip" for the sim card part of the setup it can never be reconciled.

Factory reset didn't work either. Really irritating, it looks like the N6 that shipped from the play store came with android 5.0 instead of 5.0.0 or 5.0.1... possibly a development version from months ago?
I flashed the latest 5.0.1 factory images (boot, system, radio), then flashed TWRP, then did a factory reset to wipe data. At the setup prompt when I rebooted, it still says "insert sim card".
I'm not sure what else to try. If the sim card isn't activated I can't tell if that's why it wants me to insert a card, or if it physically thinks it is missing. I may need to order a nano sim to micro sim adapter, then put that in my old gnex and activate it that way, and finally move it over to the N6.
Does anyone have any other ideas or think I may have overlooked something?

All of the stock shipped with 5.0 so far. Not 5.0.0. 5.0.1 update notification "should" arrive after initial bootup

Contacts screen side up. It took a while to get onto the network initially. .#.#4636#.#. On the dialer opens a testing menu. There is a drop down menu, middle of the phone info page. Mine is set to lte/cdma auto

Thanks, never knew about hidden dialer apps. I set mine to the same. It's been a few hours and still no connection, so I'm going to assume the fact that the sim isn't activated is what's causing the phone to believe it's not inserted. I really need another phone to test with... if the sim card can be activated or work on another device, and still doesn't work in the N6, then it'd be a hardware problem.
Also good to know 5.0 is standard.

Update: I tried using the cut micro sim again, but this time turned wifi off. Looks like cutting the micro sim worked after all. I'm somewhat recognized by the network, but the sim used no longer maps to my account, so I'm getting a verizon webpage stating "device error" and to call customer support. I think if I can get verizon to revert changes made on my account yesterday back to the gnex with my old sim that this will work.
Moral of the story - cutting micro sim cards will work, but turn off wifi when trying to test your sim!
I'll report back once this is finally resolved. Hopefully this helps someone else.

Got it working - just had to get a new micro sim for my gnex, re-activate that device, then I was able to cut it down to nano size and load it into my nexus6. With wifi off this time, everything worked, and it connected to the network.
I've updated the original post with instructions for anyone else who might be having this problem.

[Q] No service, says no sim card inserted

I recently set up a VZW developer edition for my gf and she had been using it without any problems for about 6 days. Today she tells me she got some kind of pop-up message/warning that she can't remember the details of. The phone then rebooted and all service was gone. The phone is basically acting as if there's no SIM inserted now. I tried rebooting multiple times with and without the SIM inserted and still the same thing.
EDIT: OK, so I think the message she saw was just for a SU binary update.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

It could just be a bad SIM card.

Yeah, it's either the SIM or the phone; easier to start with the SIM. I re-activated her old phone and ordered a new SIM priority overnight.

Please help, No Sim Card/Emergency Calls only

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have searched and could not find an answer to my issue. I purchased a T-mobile variant Galaxy S6 it was stuck on the Samsung logo but I only paid $100 so I figured worst case scenario sell it for parts. I managed to get it to boot everything works except cellular service. If I remove the Sim it says "Sim Card Removed" Restart. After restart it goes immediately to No Sim Card . I insert the Sim and it says "Sim card Detected" Restart. After Restart No Sim Card???? Checked IMEI its clean, flashed stock via Odin, pulled what little hair I had left out. Any words of wisdom? Thank you in advance for your time. forgot to add no mobile networks option at all in settings?

Does the SIM card work in another phone?

yes sim card works in other phones

Could be why you paid $100 for it. If your SIM works in another phone then there is a issue with the S6 being able to read your SIM. Have a friend with T-MOBILE? Try their SIM card. You might have a picky SIM.

of coarse it's why I paid a $100 for it, no matter what I can get my money back out of it but I was hoping to be able to fix it. Tried several sim cards same thing it recognizes the card restarts no sim card. I was thinking it might be the sim card reader itself but the fact that there's no Mobile networks in settings makes me think it's software related? Oh well I guess parts on ebay here I come. Anyone need a new display LoL

Same issue
Hi there. I have exactly the same issue with an O2 unlocked S6. I used my Ee sim on it till two weeks ago when suddenly i lost all network capacity (same as you). Previously i flashed an unbranded stock firmware in order to get rid of the o2 logo (may seem stupid but that was what i did). After 2 weeks of normal use with the new rom suddenaly i couldn't give/receive calls /texts. Since, i tried wiping, flashing, advanced wiping etc but same issue. Any advice is more than appreciated.

I had a similar problem, after first update in android 7.whatever my sim card worked but couldnt go online, just via wifi. I could make calls and recieve texts. I got a new simcard and that helped. Later Oreo came and my phone glitched out when i had the simcard installed. But when i took it out it worked. Sent it to nokia support center and got it back today, what happend? Yes the phone works, i can make and recieve calls/texts. But i cant go online without wifi. Asked my provider for a new sim card now, will return and write if that works.

and I have this problem. Have you found a solution?

Weird, my TA-1052 suddenly got this problem yesterday, SIM card state keep looping between detected and undetected, after several loops phone will reboot and reboot again and again.
But when I switch the card to the other slot and reboot, all things seem to be fine. Then at some random time of the day this problem shows up again and I have to switch the card back.
I can 100% reproduce this bug by insert 2 SIM cards together, phone will stuck in a loop and reboot, but logcat shows nothing suspicious.
Tried factory reset but nothing happened.
Since both SIM card slots actually work and I haven't updated system recently, I guess this shouldn't be hardware-related.
