Hi,
Never thought my first post may be informative but I want to share the events as it may help others.
I'm new to smart phones (first one Elephone P3000s) last phone I had was a Nokia 3310s and I had that for a long time!
I know, so this piece of electronic communication wonder in my hand is quite the thing and has me wide eyed and legless at times.
Yesterday I was updating contacts and generally doing some housekeeping on my new smart phone. I also wanted to create more room on my sd card so moved MapFactor: GPS Navigation data from SD card to main phone storage, using the apps built in option to do this.
I then deleted the folder on the sd card.
Later after lots of playing about, what "She who makes lumpy custard" describes 'housekeeping' as. I noticed that I had the red symbol where my cell phone signal is normally expressed.
My first though was oh no what's wrong with this phone. What followed was search after search but everything I found related to particular phone makers and models but I didn't find anything that was more generic to my issue. Bed called and the search continued this morning but to no avail.
I then decided to reverse everything I'd done as I do remember seeing something somewhere that mentioned navigation as a possible cause. I uninstalled MapFactor: GPS Navigation, still my cell signal would appear as good then fail after 10 seconds or so.
OK reinstall MapFactor: GPS Navigation, still the same as above, so I decided to move MapFactor: GPS Navigation data back over to the sd card.
Did that and low and behold I have my cell signal back and it's been stable all day so far.
I have no idea why this issue exists or if I'll ever be able to move the data back to phone storage, that's an experiment for later.
If anyone can throw some light on this I'd be interested to know. If I can provide anything to assist just ask.
I hope this may help someone else recover from a loss of SIM card and remind everyone that we the "Human Elephant" are more likely to be the cause of these fine pieces of engineering failing than the fine pieces of engineering themselves.
If this post is deemed, by a higher authority, to be better placed elsewhere feel free.
If anyone is helped by this, bless you and don't forget to thank me, it'll probably be the one and only assistance I'm able to offer as there are many younger and brighter lights burning in these forums than this old candle.
