Hello Sir,

  • Error messageInsert SIM

Your phone has no contact with your SIM card. We recommend that you:
· Clean the connectors on the SIM card with a soft brush, cloth or q-tip moistened with any type of unflavoured, colourless alcohol.
· Check whether the card is damaged or worn in any way.
If your SIM card is damaged or does not work properly after cleaning, please contact your operator to obtain a new SIM card.
  • Error message Insert Correct SIM

Your phone is probably SIM-locked to a specific operator's SIM card. This is usually the case when you buy the phone from an operator. SIM- locked phones may be unlocked – contact your operator for more information.
I think that your W880i was unlocked by a patch before updating, and now, it's relocked because of the patch will disappear when you install new firmware.

Insert correct sim card

Try with another sim card, clean the sim connector of your phone, reset you phone to Factory Setting (default) using 12345. If you can open it, clean the mobile thoroughly using iPhone solution. This problem is caused by Firmware problem and Hardware problem as well.
OR:
New Software Reinstall in the Phone

Asking to insert correct sim and only emergengy

Hello and Welcome to FixYa!

This usually occurs when your phone is locked to some specific network, and you are trying to insert some other SIM card.

If this is the case then you will not be able to insert other universal SIMs unless you unlock it to universal mode.

And if this is not the case the this may be some Firmware bug, updating/flashing your phone firmware will probably solve your issue in this case.

Note: Flashing will require the USB Cable, which comes with the new phone, if you have the cable then you can download the Flashing software here.

I hope this will help you out, IF I was of help kindly do Rate.

Concerned, WAQAR.

Insert correct sim card

Un-Clocked is temporary, allows free txt and calls for a few minutes.
Un-Locked from a network is what will allow you to use any sim card on your phone.
