Asus ROG Phone 5: Why isn't the Asus ROG Phone 5 detecting the sim card anymore?

Wed, 14 May 2025 03:46:17 -0700

After using my phone, I climbed into my car where the ROG 5 phone fell from my pocket and was hit by the door as I was closing the door. Then it hit the ground and I immediately picked it up only to be greeted ny "no sim detected."

I've removed and replaced the sim card and even cleaned the contacts. I tried each of the reset options but nothing works. It's currently in a repair shop (fingers crossed and/or palms pressed together) but considering they and another shop didn't have parts, I'm skeptical of expecting anything.

I just want to know if anyone else has any experience with this issue and if you could offer some helpful advice, beyond "get another phone." lol. But seriously.

Asus ROG Phone 5: I need a new Sub Lower Board.

Sun, 14 May 2023 09:02:45 -0700

When you drop the phone. two ribbons can be disconnected slightly. And the chances of shorting can occur. This did not kill my phone. But allowing the chip on the other side of the sim to heat up massively draining your battery at all times. The phone will work just fine cpu, gpu just fine. The sim chip over heating giving weak signal. I only get internet when I have 5 bars. 4 bars I no longer can access internet, call or text. But I'll have 4 bars. But once it's 5 bars it's all good again. I opened it after requiring tool and silicone glue to put the back glass back on. I reconnected the ribbon after the phone started heating up. The over heating didnt happen after the ribbons disconnected. But from me squeezing the phone to slightly recontact the ribbon on the slot. Multiple times over 3 months. Then the heating happened after I dropped the phone again with a already loose ribbons.

Getting the main board is easy it's on the market everywhere. But the sub lower board is out of stock for a long time.

Asus ROG Phone 5: How can I fix my headphone jack/usb connections?

Thu, 22 Aug 2024 07:36:42 -0700

A month ago, I let water drop on top of the screen, and because of the case, it made a pool of water which leaked through the bottom speaker. The phone, speaker and microphone work just fine, but the headphone jack has not been working since, and I'm afraid to test the bottom usb (I forgot it had that rubber protection in it, there was still a droplet of water inside, and it was green). Most local stores said they can't fix my phone due to not being able to find parts for it, which means I'm gonna have to find it internationally. How do I find parts for it, and how to fix it?
Also, I have a bricked Zenfone 6, it works, but it's boot looping. Could I repurpose its headphone jack/usb on the ROG5 somehow?

Asus ROG Phone 5: Why Bluetooth isn't starting

Sat, 05 Jul 2025 00:23:42 -0700

Whenever I try to start Bluetooth by clicking the Bluetooth icon from the notification bar, it keeps displaying "Turning on...". But it doesn't start. Also tried to start from the main process but it doesn't work. Checked by restarting the device, clearing the cache & data of the Bluetooth app, and using safe mode. Got the same result. Now what is the solution, or what can be the reason behind this?
