I recently purchased a new Motorola V400 phone on eBay. When I inserted
my SIM card and turned the phone on, I received a message telling me to
"Insert SIM". After playing around with the phone some, I was able to get
my SIM card to read by making sure the battery was pressing tight against
the SIM card. I put some tape on the battery to make sure that the SIM
card was being pressed against the contacts when the case was closed.
This worked initially, but after a few minutes, the phone would shut off
and then pop up with the "Insert SIM" prompt. Do I have a phone with an
isolated defect, or have others experienced this problem as well?
Thanks.

I did, and I've tried different SIM cards. It has now reached the point
where it seems to be working, but I fully expect that at some point it
will reboot itself and ask for the SIM card. Just wondered if anyone else
had encountered this sort of problem. I'm not sure whether this is a
hardware or a software problem.

Re: V400 problem
What you may want to try is taking an pincel eraser and rub on the gold
contacts....I work in Cingular customer care and it always seems to
work....
