Just got a big update from big red. I was shocked to find the notification. The old S4 is still a great machine after these years. No reason to update the hardware till it gives up working.

yes, that is it.

Frustrating problem with Sim Card Error solved! So I was getting ready to ship my phone back being within the 14 day period due to getting Sim card errors. Not being able to consistently make calls or texts. It would really do it more when connected to wifi. So the true work around is enabling...

hallux, I got 11 3.1 but this new update will improve the sound and the use of the s pen. The two main things I cherish and remembering the days with my old note pro 12.2. My peeps are Mac slab fans but they like the s7+ in the way I use mine.

Today I received my samsung silicone case with s pen garage. I am loving it compared to the ugho speed turtle I had on it. I don't think it will see my phone like the turtle would but it is minimal and the 21 goes back into my pocket with pen. Just my opinion.

From what I have been hearing we are going to get a huge update.

johnson21, you are spot on. Thank you.

johnson21, the card was originally in my note 4! The s21 is my first 5g phone.

Found the Sim card was at fault. These s21's need the new 5g Sim. All is well now.

Probably should call the phone company and have them reset my Sim or send me a new one.

It would say no service available, Sim card error. And the texts would say text unable to be sent. Also got mass texts from earlier that seem to be delivered in batches.

Anyone experiencing issues calling or texting due a error communicating with the Sim card? I get it about every 5th call and about every 3rd text. Weird.

johnson21 The app on the 21 won't show on the phone even though it is shown as installed when looked up on the play store. I did go to settings, advanced settings, and enabled calling and text from different device. Uninstaller and reinstalled the my companion app. And also checked the setting...

I really depended on this app for communicating from my laptop. I will have to use a USB adapter now off my phone till it works again.

I didn't give any leeway. I was very direct with screen shots and url showing it was in stock. Also mine was a unlocked version.
