sanjoa Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Hi, guys! I'd like to know if the data from GSM chips, as contacts, messages can be recovered from a damaged chip. My mobile phone's chip stopped working and my mobile provider is going to give me a new chip with the same mobile number... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyblair Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Did you manipulated it with your fingers (touch the golden pads) ?Try to clean the pads with cotton and alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyblair Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 To have an idea of what is inside :1st problem could be mechanic : a broken connection2nd problem is Electrostatic chock could kill the diode of protection (inside the black plastic chip), this happen with fingers.If a second phone wasn't able to read it, then your sim card is dead : throw it in the bin.
