SIM card
error
• The standby time is
related to your network
operator's system
configuration. The same
phone used with different
network operators'
systems will not provide
exactly the same length
of standby time.
• The battery is depleted. In
high-temperature
environments, battery life
will be shortened.
• If you are not able to
connect to the network,
the phone will continue to
send out signals as it
attempts to locate a base
station. Doing so
consumes battery power
and will consequently
shorten standby time.
• Battery power has been
depleted.
• SIM card malfunction or
damage.
• SIM card inserted
improperly.
• Debris on the SIM card
contacts.
