SIM not readable in Android tablet; option greyed out

[kg11sgbg]

I think I know what you are talking about
My dad had brought home a bunch of Samsung Tab 3Vs yesterday for me to setup and give for use by our employees (Dont rage at me,I gave up trying to explain why not to buy samsung and they bought it despite me suggesting Asus Fonepad )

Anyways, the samsung tabs also had a similar sim slot
Basically it looks like a regular micro sd card slot and you have to press the sim card in to engage it unlike the traditional Sim tray or "exposed" SIM pins
*Looks like you must open up the tab to access this
If you do,check for damage/bent pins etc and just use an eraser(yes an eraser) to carefully rub the pins and clean out any impurity which may have caused the problem(just to rule out this)

*But isn't that better for expert service personnel ,Friend??

You want to spend few hundred rupees for just opening the screws, lifting the sim card slot contacts and then putting the screws back in?

You'll just need a matching screwdriver and you can do it yourself. No need to contact any "expert" service personnel.
