So, I’ve talked about my SIM card problem yesterday.
Looks like I managed to recover it back. Here’s some tips for you, just in case in occurs to you too.
Should you be a round some where i.e. London, Korea, Europe, etc during winter and may face a SIM card lock, here is the best way to recover it based on my experience yesterday.

- Open you phone’s battery
- Take the SIM card out
- Hold the SIM card in your palm, and close your palm for few minutes (too warm the thing up)
- re-insert the SIM card
- Voila! your SIM is up and running
It seems like during winter, the SIM sometimes doesn’t work properly. Well, how do I know this. I remembered the same thing happened to me in Seoul, Korea last time. I was trying to get into my room but I couldn’t because the door just wouldn’t want to accept my room key. Well, the room key is the slot card type with a magnetic strip on it.
What I did was, I hold the magnetic strip card for few minutes and try opening the door again. Guess what? It’s working.
So, If you are in a blissful situation like me yesterday, don’t panic. Relax and use this method. Hopefully, this will help you.
