Hello Slim,
Sorry to hear of your troubles, but this is the 'Sprint' branded GS3 forum.
These are CDMA phones available only through this carrier in the U.S. and they do not have any SIM card slot. (it is hardwired to the board)

You might have a better time getting answers if you were to post your problem on the I9300 (international) board.

Anyway, I wish you luck!

Wess, Slim is asking about a SIM card, not an SD card.

SD is for data storage and SIM is a Subscriber Identity Module.
The SIM contains your IMSI and allows the network to identify your phone and route calls to it.
