i have a t616 and for some reason it keeps popping up with "sim card not detected. turn phone off then on again" or "insert sim" strange thing is that the sim card is plugged into the phone perfectly and the phone would work normally for a few minutes until the same message pops up again. any ideas on what could be wrong?

Hi whoelsebutme and welcome to esato...

Try taking out the sim card and wipeing clean with a non-abrasive soft cloth and also check the all the contact pins inside the phone are even and not bent or clogged up in any way.

if what axxxr says doesnt work you may have a knackered phone, It may be worth trying another sim card as well as it possible that its the sim at fault not your phoen
