Tablets with a regular SIM-card - prices. We return to the network: what to do if the tablet does not see the SIM card

Owners of brand new tablets often find it difficult to immediately understand their device. An especially common problem that occurs in all it-forums is how to remove a SIM card from a tablet or how to insert a SIM card into a tablet. From the outside, everything seems obvious. But in reality, difficulties arise with the SIM card slot. The simple tips collected in this article will help you solve them.

Install and connect a SIM card in the tablet

First, you need to determine which SIM card your device supports. Today there are several types of SIM cards for tablets: regular SIM, miniSIM, microSIM and nanoSIM. They differ only in size, and are listed in decreasing order of size. The most widespread today are microSIM.

Installing a SIM card is sometimes not so easy, in order to understand how to insert a SIM card into a tablet and avoid any problems, use the instructions:

1. Before installing the SIM card, turn off the device and (for convenience) place the tablet on a smooth surface with the display down. Make sure the surface is clean and won't scratch the screen.

2. As a rule, there is a SIM card slot on the bottom or side of the tablet (check the instructions), often it is located next to other sockets or buttons. Pay attention to the device of the access system to the socket, you may need to use a special key-clip that comes with the tablet. How to insert a SIM card into a tablet with such a key? There will be a small hole next to the slot, when the key is pressed into this hole, the SIM card slot will slide out, then you need to place the SIM in the slide out special tray.

If there is no hole, it is even clearer how to insert a SIM card into the tablet: just move the slot flap, pull out the SIM card holder, insert the SIM card from the holder upwards with contacts.

3. Slide in the tray or holder, put the flap in place (if it is not set automatically when the holder is pushed in), turn on the tablet and check the connection.

If the SIM card was installed correctly, the question of how to remove the SIM card from the tablet should not arise back - we just perform all the above steps in reverse order. If something went wrong during installation, it will not be so easy to get the SIM, you will have to use tweezers to pick it up and pull it out.

Tablet owners can use two options to access the network: Wi-Fi or mobile Internet. The latter is convenient because the network can be used everywhere. Alternatively, you can use your tablet to make calls. In the material below, we will tell you how to insert a SIM card into a tablet, and what to do if the device does not detect it.

At the moment, equipment manufacturers equip devices with slots for different sim formats. There are three types in total.

  1. Mini sim usually used in old devices or in inexpensive equipment from brands Oysters, Irbis, Digma and the like. This is the standard size 25 * 11mm.
  2. Micro sim- a more modern look. It was originally used in Apple technology, in particular, the iPhone 4. Later, other manufacturers switched to this format. The size is 15 * 12 mm.
  3. Nano sim Is the newest format. Size - 12 * 5 mm. Here the whole card is a chip with minimal plastic frames. The first company to use this format was Apple in the iPhone. Today, the vast majority of modern models work with this type.

Before inserting a SIM card into the tablet, you need to make sure that its size matches the supported format. You can find it out from documentation for the device. If the card is old, then it can be cut using a special device. You should not do this with ordinary scissors, as there is a possibility of damage to the chip.

Advice! If there is a cell phone salon of the required operator nearby, then a SIM card with a suitable standard will be issued free of charge.

If the card is bought for the first time, it is universal - you just need to squeeze your format out of the plastic shell. When there is a small card available and the slot is designed for a large card, it is best to buy an adapter for all options.

Installing a SIM card

Important! To insert a SIM card into the tablet, you must turn it off. Some devices can work in hot mode, that is, they will detect it without turning off, but most often, without rebooting, the tablet does not see the SIM card.

After shutdown, you need to find a place for Sim. The options may vary. Modern Huawei tablets it is inserted into a special slot. To open it, you need to use the small paper clip provided. The carriage is pulled out of the tablet and the card is placed on it. Regardless of the manufacturer, the appearance of the sim card is the same - a rectangular shape with a cropped corner. In fact, it is difficult to place the card on the carriage incorrectly, since there is only one position in which it will fit.

The second option is an open slot. This connector is installed in the Asus technique.

Here Sim is simply inserted into the body. In order to correctly insert the SIM card into the tablet, you need to look at the icon next to the slot. It is drawn there which side you need to place it in the device. You will hear a click when installed correctly. To remove the card, you need to lightly press on it with your fingernail - it will pop out, as if pushed out by a spring.

The third option - the slot is closed with a plastic cap. In this case, there will be a small gap on it, which is easy to pick up with a fingernail. The side of the SIM card installation in this case will again be indicated on the case. This type of slot is found on tablets. Samsung firm.

The last option is a removable cover. Often owners Prestigio and Digma wonder where the SIM card is inserted in the tablet. These brands are one of the few that provide for the use of two cards at the same time. To install, the device must be turned over. At the top of the device there is a removable panel with a small width. There is a gap in the center above the camera, which should be picked up with your fingernail. After removing the cover, the user will see a place for a SIM and for a microSD. In this case, the card is placed with the chip inside, the cut corner should be at the top.

There are no other places for placing SIM cards in tablet computers. If the question of where the SIM card is inserted in the tablet remains unresolved, then you need to refer to the documentation of the equipment. There are instructions for the place and method of installation.

Most often, after installing the card and rebooting the device, it will automatically detect the SIM and start working... At the first installation, SMS with settings comes to the tablet, they need to be opened and saved. If the SMS did not come, then a call to the hotline will help. In some cases, the tablet will need to customize yourself... To do this, go to the settings and find the item "mobile network settings". Next, open the "access points" and create a new point.

An important point when creating a point is to correctly register the address at which the device will go online. This item is called APN. Different operators have different addresses, so the correct option for setting can be found on the operator's website.

The address usually looks like this: internet.tele2.ru. The access point name and password are not required in the case of Tele2. Megafon and MTS may have them, therefore, in order not to be mistaken, you need to look for information on the official website or contact the salon.

SIM card problems

What if the tablet does not see the SIM card? In this situation, there may be several options.

So, in order to check all the reasons why the technician does not read the SIM card, we perform a simple sequence of actions:

  • we check the correctness of the installation of the card;
  • check if the "air" mode is disabled;
  • if the Internet stopped working after installing new software, then it should be removed;
  • if only the Internet does not work, then we check the settings;
  • we check the sim in another device;
  • we check the connector using another card;
  • do a system reset;
  • if all else fails, then we go to the service center.

An important point! You do not need to try to repair the SIM card or the connector for it yourself. Some users try to clean the chip and contacts with rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab and do other wrong things. This will not help; it will only make the problem worse. If none of the above helped, then it is better to contact a specialist.

Which tablet with mobile phone function is better to buy

The presented rating of tablets with a call function does not include the most productive devices in its list, since the presence of a GSM module does not require high technical characteristics. To understand which device to choose, our editorial team recommends adhering to such recommendations.

  1. The diagonal of the screen should be suitable for the specific case. If you do not plan to watch movies frequently on your device, you can choose models of 7 - 8 inches, and if there is a need for views, from 10 inches.
  2. The technical characteristics must correspond to modern requirements. This is necessary to work effectively with modern applications.
  3. High-quality assembly is a prerequisite for purchasing. The tablets are used quite actively, so there is a risk that the flimsy case will not withstand constant shaking and travel.

More and more tablets are equipped with GSM or 3G-modules, getting the opportunity to go online anytime, anywhere, and not just in the Wi-Fi coverage area. However, with the advent of SIM-card slots in tablet computers, a rather typical problem arose: the tablet does not see the SIM-card.

When software is to blame

The gadget software can also be the reason for the lack of the Internet. For example, if after the network suddenly disappeared, then, with a high degree of probability, the downloaded program was the cause. Try to simply delete it.

And sometimes the user's inattention is to blame: they accidentally activated the "Airplane" or "Standalone" mode. In this case, you need to check in the device settings that mobile networks are enabled and data transfer is allowed. In the same place, see if the priority is indicated: in this case, the mobile Internet may also not work, despite the identified card.

Another reason could be a system firmware failure. In this case, it will probably help or, in more severe cases, a hard reset (remember that when you completely reset the user settings, all information on the tablet will be lost, so you should first make a backup copy).

A common situation among when the device sees the SIM card, but does not connect to the mobile network. Most likely, the parameters for the native Chinese operators are set in the mobile network settings. It is necessary to indicate your mobile operator there or, if it is not in the list and is not in the search, manually set the APN parameters and others necessary for connection (you can find out on the operator's website, in the communication salon or by calling technical support).

Summing up

So what if the tablet says "no SIM card"? Here's a short algorithm:

  • check if the "Airplane" or "Standalone" mode is activated;
  • if the Internet stopped working after installing new applications, remove them;
  • check the settings of mobile networks;
  • check the SIM card on another device (tablet or smartphone);
  • if everything is fine with the card, check the SIM-reader connector using another SIM card (preferably another operator) - take the tablet to the service center to replace the slot and loop;
  • if the connector works and sees the card of another operator, replace your SIM in the communication salon;
  • if the network does not appear with the new card, make a hard reset or;
  • if all of the above did not help - a direct road to the service.
