Why is my phone saying insert smart chip, phone is unlocked

Unlocking means that it can work on any compatible network -- it's no longer tied to one carrier -- but you still need a SIM card for your provider so the phone has an identity on the network.

What does it mean: insert a smart chip?

Try cleaning the contacts on the sim card. if that doesn't work go into the phone store and ask for a replacement sim.

Insert smartchip

You are placing the smart chip on top of the smart chip holder. It's a little metal square where the smart chip should go. Lift up the metal square and place the smart chip underneath. I had to go to my local AT&T dealer to figure this out.

Says insert smart chip

smart chip means the SIM card.

try cleaning the metallic part of the SIM card with a cloth and the metal connectors on the phone with cotton bud etc.

Put it back and try again.

If not working grab another SIM card (working - friend's etc) to test.

If still not working, send to service centre.
If working for other SIM card then replace your own SIM card.

Says insert smart chip

It is possible to put the sim card in backwards.  My daughter did and when we turned it around I no longer got the "smart chip" error message.

My phone keeps saying insert smart chip

attempt to take the SIM card out and gently wipe it off (pay especial detail to the copper connectors on the under-side.) after that, give a gentle blow to the recieving area for the sim on the phone and place the sim back in the phone, power up, and hopefully this problem will be solved. this issue occurs often to myself and this seems to be a very simple solution.

LG Shine doesn't reconize SIM card

yeah you probably need a new chip due to the 3g network it might work on the other phones because they are older
