Test your sim in another phone if its ok then problem from your phone. the DCT4 nokia phones hate water so much, the small sim controller ic may have been shorted as water is a semi conductor.

I'm not sure if this will be of much help to you but I recently bought a Nokia N910 Lumia and I paid to get it unlocked (it was with Rogers) and it wouldn't accept my SIM card from Virgin Mobile. The clerk who sold it to me assured me that it would work with the Virgin network and for reasons unknown at the time it wasn't working and he blamed it on my SIM card so I bought another SIM card and activated it through Virgin C.S, still to no avail. I bought it right before the Easter weekend so I was without a working phone for 4 days. The place was closed Sunday but the local mall in my city was open so I took it to the Wirelesswave there to get a 2nd opinion and maybe a non biased answer, which I most definitely did.
The Gentleman who was of much help first tried another active SIM card from Virgin, it didn't work, then he tried his with Rogers and guess what, It didn't work. I was then informed that a number of the Nokia N series phones were defective and were either 'rejecting SIM' or displaying 'unregistered SIM'. So after much arguing with the clerk who sold me the phone I swapped the defective Nokia that he sold me for a blackberry and problem solved.
Anyway Nokia is well aware of the problem with their N series phones but unless you contact them directly you wont get any answers. Call them and tell them that you have a defective phone, even if its passed the one year warranty they should at least send you a refurbished phone of the same series.
I hope this helps
Kind Regards,

Mike

SOURCE: sim card rejected / insert sim card

Unfortunately, they usually fault after getting wet. You might want to take it to a local repair facility and have them check the internal circuitry. Best of Luck.

How to repair sim card?

Some of the reasons why sim card getting rejected in your mobile
1.Bad SIM -if it wasn't unlocked you had get a message asking you to enter a PIN.Get the pin from an online vendor like http://www.wickedunlock.com/supported-phones/rs11wp7/ .
2.With a warning that you have 10 attempts to enter the correct PIN code or it could be locked forever ,if you don't get that message it's "mostly likely" unlocked.BUT find a phone with a known working SIM and see if it will work and connect to the network.
3.May be a hardware problem try flashing with a custom rom.
4.This has to be a problem with the SIM card slot, which is soldered down to the logic board. It's possible that it's a mechanical problem , you might be able to open it up and discover that the card-detect switch is failing to detect SIM card insertion.
5.The os system has been updated and your phone is not being recognized with the right settings , this happened after a update a year or two ago..
