I'm wondering if it's the age of the SIM card in use... A few years ago, I upgraded to a new android phone. A day or two later, the SIM card couldn't be detected. Try as I might, it was as though the thing wasn't plugged in. I took the phone to the nearest carrier store, and the clerk took a look at my SIM card and told me he knew the problem. My SIM was an older model, and wasn't designed for the heavy amount of... I'll be honest, I don't remember exactly what he said, but the gist of it was the newer phone was activating and accessing the SIM card at a much higher frequency than my old phone did. It had burned the thing out in a manner of 24-48 hours. They loaded up a new SIM card (which actually had a slightly different look to the connector pins) and everything worked just fine. I couldn't believe it, even though it technically seems plausible. I'm wondering if this is a similar issue - the new phones are accessing the SIM more frequently, and thus burning them out? Just a thought |
