Your SIM Played a Tone

I was also facing the same problem..it's basically it sim application that got started some how,,maybe it happened mistakenly by you,,here is the solution,,go to settings-phone settings- sim applications-sim services(like Airtel services),,stop that one..then u r good to go.

It is specific to service provider. So check options available in Settings -> SIM applications. In my case, I did the following

Settings -> SIM Application -> <Service provider>now ->Start/Stop -> Stop

If I switch off the message receiving thing, would I still able to know whether I need to top up my balance?

Long time later but I see more have asked. The message is related to a SIM Application that carriers purchase. Very dodgy, it vaguely refers to social address book , swaps out information among SIM and with network. I cancelled mine immediately. Can be found in Phone, SIM Applications.

Dear ios7 users,

I have found a fix for this.

Go to settings-->Privacy---->Location services-----> scroll down for System Services and turn off Location-Based iAds.

This will definitely work.

@Prasanth

I turn off the settings what you mentioned(Location - Based), still i am getting a same alert

Please advise 😟

Open Settings > Phone > SIM Applications then turn off the CallerXChange Service or anything similiar to that....this works🙂

This works, thanks. I understand the "Your SIM Played a Tone" message is a limitation of iOS in how it works with SIM apps like banking, top up or this contact exchange service. On other types of phones it would beep like you have a text.

See what Maasai said. It works:

NO option give in sim application like callerxchange

try to check your sim case. maybe the sim's not correct with the case.
