Michelle borrowed the iPhone for the wedding she attended last night. Since my micro SIM won’t work with the E51, I had to make my own Micro SIM Adapter. After about half an hour, I was able to make one and, more importantly, it actually worked. Here’s how to do it in case you find yourself in a similar predicament.
Things you need:
- An old SIM
- The old SIM’s carrier card
- The micro SIM’s carrier card
- Some tape
- A cutter
- A nail file
Procedure:
- Tape the two SIM’s carrier cards together with the SIM’s carrier card at the bottom and the Micro SIM’s carrier card at the top. This will serve as your guide.
- Replace the old SIM into it’s carrier card.
- Use the cutter to trace a slot for the Micro SIM on the old SIM using the hole on the Micro SIM’s carrier card as a guide
- Slowly but surely cut progressively deeper into the old SIM until you create a hole. Be careful as the sides are a bit thin.
- File a bit with the nail file for a snug fit.
- Voila! Your own Micro SIM Adapter!
