        Had issues in France using roaming and beeing cut off the phone/data net (no sim card detected...) many times during the day. Is it possible to re-read the sim card with a command in the terminal? Or is the only solution restarting the phone?

            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
