          Can you do emergency call (is it available)?
          Did you tried to insert it in another phone (could be an hardware problem) or a misplaced card or a connector problem?
          Is your card compatible with french network (2G voLTE switch)?
          Reinsert the card should detect it.

            @Vlad-Nirky The card works well again since I am back from France = no cut offs any more.
            Sim card itself and contacts inside phone were o.k.
            Card worked in France flawlessly. But it was completely cut off up to 5 times a day with the phone lying on the desk without touching it and I had to restart the phone to get it working again...
            So I thought on the possibility (?) to re-read the sim card from command line without restarting the phone...

              @uwahl You could try restarting the ofono service with

              $ sudo systemctl restart ofono

                @uwahl said in Sim card re-reading via commandline?:

                Or is the only solution restarting the phone?

                You can also try to put plane mode on then off.

                  @Keneda Putting plane mode on then off does not work/ doesn't change the "no sim card detected"...

                        I tried to reproduce the behaviour in France:
                        Getting the state " no simcard present", I removed the simcard while ubuntu touch running. But when reinserting the simcard, it was automatically re-read flawlessly...so there was no chance for me to test under the conditions I had in France - that was a running ubuntu touch with a simcard correctly in place and the phone showing "no sim card present"...
                        Of course, the command given by arubislander worked, the simcard was re-read; but the conditions were different from France, where the sim was not re-read/ couldn't be reactivated, although being in place untouched.
                        Here in Germany there is no more problem. The phone has still its secretsπŸ˜› as it seems...

                          I would say that each mobile service provider has its own infrastructure, its own configurations, and its own problems.
                          From Belgium to France, with Orange, I haven't had any issues.

                            @Vlad-Nirky I will mark the thread as solved although I couldn't reproduce the orginal faulty conditions of France (Orange/ 1&1).- Maybe next time...
                            Thank you for your answers!
