I am still having problem making correct contact between my sim card and TSIM.
I notice the TSIM contacts closest to the side of the notch doesn't contact well with my AT&T and local 3G sim cards.
pz - need your input please. thanks |

| Mmm, check if there is not any residue of cover mask - black spots. You may also try to place piece of paper under your card so that phone contacts push more. What phone/cards? You mentioned ATT card yesterday. |

| the reason is that, both urls have a puncutation mark at the end, which gives the error. remove them and you are ready to go. |

| The first design is GEMPLUS, today Gemalto, we have such cards, the issue won't be the design. |

| Oz - could you not try and use program that PZ mentioned in the previous thread to insert ICCID and IMSI manually - in that case you wouldnt need AT&T card?? |

then it's really puzzling...
when I program the TSIM, do i need to use the same card as the one i am going to use? I know that I was using the 2nd design card to flash the TSIM. |

it's not about the AT&T card. It's about my local carrier card (3G) that has the same design as the AT&T sim. Both I couldn't use it with TSIM  |

To Oz - Oh ok - I thought it was just the initial phase where you were experiencing problems (i.e. inserting AT&T SIM to get TSIM to copy IMSI and ICCID).
I just checked my O2 sim (here in UK) and it is the latter (2nd design) on your message above - so hopefully when I get TSIM I hp I dont get contact problems.
I think PZ suggestion of inserting a bit of paper in the TSIM to push the contacts together seems like a good one. |

i tried the paper trick - no luck
pz: i put the gemalto sim with TSIM in the SIM slot of TP2, then cemu --info -d COMx, stuck at SIM_ATR. But if I use the TSIM with the silvercard (2nd design) it works no problem. |

Now this is getting to be interesting. So it doesn't work even with TL2? This is important report. What card is this and where we can get it?
I was confused because you mentioned ATT card which we tested. Does ATT issue more different cards together with iphone? Please understand that all our knowledge is ~2 hours with iphone and one card. I don't know if there are more types in wild with iphone, we don't follow iphone discussions at all. |

Being USIM is not problem, this maybe something timing related, etc. There are many possible reasons. Important question, please try: Does TL2+ATT/the_other_card work? When doing such reports please report also what phone was used - given SIM may behave differently in other phones. And really if you can try use TL2 so we can avoid mechanical problems. |
