        I installed Ubuntu Touch on a Nexus 5. Everything I tested is working fine. Internet connection by WiFi is OK. The problem is that the SIM card is not detected. Googling a lot came to a possible answer :
        https://forum.xda-developers.com/ubuntu-touch/help/sim-detected-nexus-5-t2858419
        Which says :
        Solved thanks to a script in /usr/share/ofono/scripts/ which is "enter-pin"
        So, try typing in a terminal ("xxxx" is your pin code):

        /usr/share/ofono/scripts/enter-pin pin xxxx

        I tried it but got an error :

        phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ /usr/share/ofono/scripts/enter-pin pin 0000
        Enter Pin for modem /ril_0...
        Traceback (most recent call last):
          File "/usr/share/ofono/scripts/enter-pin", line 27, in <module>
            simmanager.EnterPin(pin_type, pin)
          File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 70, in __call__
            return self._proxy_method(*args, **keywords)
          File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 145, in __call__
            **keywords)
          File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 651, in call_blocking
            message, timeout)
        dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.ofono.Error.InvalidFormat: Argument format is not recognized
        

        I don't know what is the format error.
        Otherwise, where can I enter the SIM pin code ?
        I am locked there.
        It could also be a hardware problem, I tried to reinsert the card several times, but no change.
        Thanks for any idea.
