SIM Card Adapter Tips for iPhone 5 and BlackBerry Z10 and Others
DevHackMod
I like to switch often between my devices depending on my daily mood and for testing apps (iPhone and BlackBerry). How can you do this on different phones with Regular, Micro and Nano-sized SIM card slots? A SIM Card Adapter lets you easily use the same SIM card in all your devices. Ask your carrier for the nano SIM (iPhone 5) and use the adapters to convert it for micro and regular SIM sizes when needed. This video shows you how to avoid problems.
Some people have reported breaking their phones using adapters. This video shows how to properly use a SIM Card Adapter. If you do make the mistake of inserting a SIM Card Adapter into your phone without a SIM in it, you need to very carefully push down the gold pins with a needle through the small windows in the SIM slot as you pull on the adapter. You will have to pierce through the thin clear plastic membrane on your SIM adapter (which ruins it) but at least it saves your phone. Push the gold pins in carefully while pulling on the adapter gently to bypass the first group of 3 gold pins, then repeat for the second group of 3 gold pins. Do not force the adapter out or you will rip your pins and render your device useless!
