When the message sim card registration failed comes up it is usually as a result of one of 2 things the first being that the phone has not recognized the sim card due to an improper fixing or the sim card has become faulty. Simply try the sim on a different mobile device to determine if the sim card is still good.

SOURCE: SIM CARD REGISTRATION failed, N70

Factory resetting the phone will do absolutely nothing with this problem

There are 3 causes of Sim Card Registration Failed, when you first turn on the phone, the sim card attempts to connect to the network if it can not do this it gives a message like Sim Card Registration failed.

1, The sim card is turned off (is it Orange) if you have had the sim card for a while and it hasnt been used they will turn it off, you need to contact them from another phone to get it turned on or get a new sim card.

2, The phone has a hardware reception problem, when it attempts to register itself with the network it can not... There is a reception problem and it requires repairs, this isnt really an easy diy job on this handset.

3, The phone is blocked, i.e reported lost or stolen. Some networks when a phone is reported will allow it to get reception but will not let it make calls, however other networks will not give it reception at all and hence you get a Sim Card Registration failed message.

I hope this helps, these are the causes of the message.

SOURCE: sim card reg failed in my 6630

confirm that your phone is not locked to a particular network carrier especially if you desire to change sim card operator.

if this were so, you will need to unlock your handset first before re-inserting your sim card into your handset.

third way out is to flash your phone.

SOURCE: SIM card registration failed, whats wrong?

The first thing to try is put the SIM into another handset - if you get the same error message on that, the SIM is blocked. If it works in another phone, the most likely explanation is that the IMEI of your phone has been blocked by the network.

If your lyca sim card registration is failed to work in your cell phone then your phone is probably network locked.

Sim card registration

No, your handset seems ok. Its related with your SIM card's registration. Have you tried it on some other phone? Try putting the SIM card on another phone. Most probably the validity of your SIM card has expired. Please check with your service provider for re-activation if that is possible. Please let us know how did it go...

Nokia 6300

SIM Card Registration failed, means your SIM card serial number does not exist in your SIM provider's Server.

Generally when a SIM not used for a long period (About 6 months or any fix duration by SIM provider), the company remove that SIM card serial number from server.
In some cases if your SIM is new then it might not be activated by company, so you can ask regarding this the customer care of your SIM provoider.

Thanks
