I decided to post it here but let me

explain ,
I just got new work and got new SIM card (company SIM) usually my

batteries last about 3 days without charge ( I use cell just for calls)
but with SIM card from work, I had to charge my cell everyday and that was

not enough, after about 5 min conversation my cell was getting very very

hot,
and I never had this issue before.
I took out company SIM put my old one and everything comes to normal,

today is third day that I did that, and I did not charge my cell yet,
my phone not overheating when I am using it.
So clearly it was a bug or still is in that SIM card,
I have questions, if someone can help me
1) I heard that bugs can be only in cell phone, can they be placed in SIM

itself ?
2) How I can find for sure if SIM has a bug ? ( maybe copy it to USB

drive or something like that)
3) and what it does listens my conversations only when I am on the phone,

or can listen what happening in the room as well ?
4) I will wipe my BB and replace OS, is that enough to kill bug if I have

it on my phone ?
5) Can this bug jump to my old (personal) SIM ?

SIM from TRUE MOVE , Thailand , yes I am working in Thailand, cannot go

to police, ( DO NOT WANT USELESS )

A SIM card is a memory card, like an SD card. If it has a bug, it would be a bad memory cell, and it would probably stop working.

2) How I can find for sure if SIM has a bug ? ( maybe copy it to USB

drive or something like that)
The kind of bug you're taking about? It can't. It's not a computer, it's just memory.

3) and what it does listens my conversations only when I am on the phone,

or can listen what happening in the room as well ?
That would be the phone, not the SIM. The SIM can't "listen" to anything.

4) I will wipe my BB and replace OS, is that enough to kill bug if I have

it on my phone ?
No, but it's enough to kill your phone if you do it wrong.

5) Can this bug jump to my old (personal) SIM ?
Since there's jno "bug" of the type you mean, no.

I strongly suspect that all you have is a defective SIM card and that if the carrier replaces it, everything will go back to working normally. (They go bad. The one in the box with my brand new phone last month was totally dead. The store had to replace it.)
