Hi, Have you tried your SIM card in another phone to prove it works or not? Have you tried another known working SIM card in your phone to see if it works or not?

My problem is worse with this issue since my S4 doesn't accept some GSM SIM cards while it accepts others. I think the problem is mostly related to the SIM/SD card reader. I assume the problem is linked to the width of the (golden part) in the SIM card since my S4 accepts the SIM cards with "wider golden part" and doesn't accept the SIM cards which has a small golden part.

Hi,

maybe the connection has just come loose.

Here is a link that shows how to dis-assemble your phone and how to remove the SIM/SD Card reader board

Here is a link to just one supplier for the replacement part. There may be others. It is just to show what it looks like. In case it is faulty
