Your SIM Played a Tone

Hello everybody!

I have a message few times a day with text "Your SIM played a tone" and two options (Cancel, Accept). Nothing happens for any option I choose.

Could you please clarify me what is it about? and how I can switch it off?

thanks in advance

The best option is to call your Sim Customer Care (E.g.: Vodafone / Airtel) and tell them to deactivate the flash message service.

I faced the similar issue yesterday but after deactivation, I am not receiving any message. Thanks.

IN addition if it doesnt work fine then deactivate all the menu's items found in sim applications by choosing individual application and by deactivating them all...

this worked fine for me..hope it will do for you too..thanks!!!

Go to the Settings App on iPhone/ iPad>Phone>Sim Application>Flash! > Activation > Deactivate>Screen show to confirm “Flash! OFF”, Then tap on Accept.
