You need to solder it back on. Glue is not conducting your signal. This is an easy job for you to do yourself if you know how to solder. Otherwise get a friend/dad or pop in to a radio/tv/phone repair shop and ask them to do the job

and 3Gs kept Searching Network...BUT...It was even showing SIM Applications in Setting>Phone>Sim Application..

If u have Same Problem HERE is HOW TO FIX

u have to RE-FLASH IPAD BASEBAND with Redsn0w not Snowbreeze.i tried Sn0wbreeze it didnt work.

Download Redsn0w 9.9b7

Open as Administrator

Select jailbreak

click Next

Enter DFC MODE

next Select Ipad base band only...Dont select any other option like Install Cydia or Deactivate...

NOTE : This process only upgrade ur base-band not iOS so u dont need any iOS Frimware file.

If u r Getting 6000 ms problem in Redsn0w then u r trying to install iOS Frimware. U can Later install iOS any version with Sn0wbreeze.But for Now just install Ipad Baseband.
