I meant that I was going to reflash the internal memory card to factory settings. I thought that maybe something I installed somewhere along the way was messing with things (though I never installed anything from extra-devel or -testing) so I wanted to start completely from scratch.

So...I reflashed both the eMMC and the firmware, and nothing changed for the better. The way I know something is still wrong is that 100% of the time, whenever I'm able to establish an EDGE or 3G data connection, within 10 minutes (usually within even just 1 minute), I get the "no SIM card inserted" error.

Guess it's time to give up and call Nokia.. :\

Ok so it worked by going global on the firmware. I can do that and it will probably solve our "no sim" problem but for how long? The real question is: Why do some of us have this problem and some of us dont? My wife and I have the same firmwares installed and she doesn't have that problem at all. Here is the difference:

My wife has never done any downloading of apps of any kind, her phone is like brand new. I'm the one who enabled all the repositories on my phone and downloaded apps. Only thing I downloaded from extras-devel is MSN Haze. Other than that, everything else is from Maemo Extras and Ovi Store. I'm assuming it's an app that is causing this problem yet I don't know which one.

You guys aren't experiencing that sim problem after flashing because maybe whatever app it was causing that problem is no longer on your phone. I don't know this is my assumption for now lol.

Yes, update to 51-1 (over WLAN or via flasher). The PR1.1 update also updated the firmware for the GSM hardware, and it's no longer compatible with earlier firmware versions.

To confirm what Rob1n is saying, I also had this problem and reflashing to PR1.1 resolved it...
