USB pinout at cable. 1 VBUS Red +5 V 2 D− White Data− 3 D+ Green Data+ 4 Gnd SIM Card pins used. 4 Gnd 5 VPP 6 I/O so USB to Sim 4 to 6 3 to 5 2 to 4 and usually those magnets in those enclosures don't connect to anything. which is a good thing because if they did it would be going from positive to ground.
The only way this would have any possible chance of working is if the sim card was live and if it's live just put it in the phone. But since he shorted all the pins with the way he put the copper tape and the aluminum tape on, the only thing that's going to happen is you'll burn out your USB port.
But why put it there if you can do so many thing with your phone without the use of this nasty littel chip? (just because it came in the package or because otherwise I get "No sim card" message is no longer good enough excuse)
This video should have the 'A Team' music playing... you know the music that played over a montage of them all making a Tank or maybe a Helicopter from a chocolate wrapper and some old engine from a lawnmower and maybe BA's biggest ring! 😅
If you wrap his finished product tightly in aluminum foil, it picks up all TV stations within a 300 mile radius and streams it directly to the VLC app on the phone. Then just cast that to your TV and you're all set! Free TV. Only perform this if you have too much free time on your hands.
Very handy if on a desert island and you have a phone, a charger and a sim card, but don't have a paper clip to get the card into the phone ...and the island has a cell tower.
When you stop using a SIM by changing a phone or discontinuing serevice, the ESN is disabled on the carrier's server from ever being used again. It's essentially dead! Unless it's a valid card tied to an account on any other service provider it ain't gonna work. period!
@@cliffporter1363 Exactly, I finally found someone smart in the comments of this video, I was thinking the same thing, old SIM cards are inactive and deleted from the cellular line system, but you can actually try to hack with an old modem and router, but with Spectrum, you have to return the modem and the router once you deactivate the line or if they provide you with a newer modem, or else they charge you as if the line is still active because of people being able to use the modem's system to hack onto the cellular towers
Good idea also! And for those who only has a USB type c adapter converter step down for maybe 2.0 or something you can take 2.0 side apart an open then solder to sim
It would be helpful to you and future viewers if you can change the title to read "don't throw your old sim card; use it to connect to wifi for free." Otherwise people don't really know why until they watch the video, you may be losing many views.
Do I have a chance to get his cable adapter for iPhone as well? And if, where can I order it. Plus tell me the exact name of it. Hank you, Jens from Germany
Last year i used my old sim card to listen in on the latest encrypted police transmissions, here in india,worked well,the only mod i did to what youve done was ,to use a shorter usb cable,as its a better aerial for the high frequency police transmissions.
O man! its really good work I also want to try it at home. Can i use big wire cable usb for that i mean android charger cable usb ?please tell about that 👍
I have like a thousand old SIM cards there, so I connected them in parallel, plugged them in to my router's USB port and now I'm charging the entire neighboorhood for internet. Elvis was my first customer. No, seriously, how did he get 12k likes from broken cellphones? Lots of likes to autolike.
I don't understand how this can work; there needs to be a modem between the sim and the phone's radio[s]. Where is that in the device you have created? Also, if this did work, wouldn't the sim card ICCID have to be active to be able to connect?
thats what i thought, maybe you should test it out and let me know, unless somehow the old sims are connected to free internet buut the way he wires it up unlocks something? as emergency services can still be called even without credit, so they have to use some kind of free network wouldnt u say
What if one made the connections without copper tape, but by soldering the various contacts and using electrical cables? Do you think everything could work anyway? Furthermore, perhaps there would be less danger of losing contact due to the movement of the various parts...
I reckon this guy saves his urine to get the meth he pissed out... he is a resourceful kinda fella 😅 and he is good at Meth-mathics! If this device actually worked then the simulation we live in has some seriously bogey coding and weird glitches!
It's a pointless video. You don't need the naughty card. If one comes packaged with your next phone, punch a hole in it, shred it, stomp it, throw it in the trash And know this message came from a new phone without it!!!
Of course it has to be valid, this is just clickbait, but the thing of you being able to use a SIM like that is true, but using an expired one won't work
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. My question is this, "Where is the internet access gotten from to the phone? I live in Obanliku, Nigeria. Here, there are no wifi networks around us. Is this wifi signal gotten from the mobile network antennas around us?
Haha my initial thought was that you were just pushing a slightly disconnected sim from the side when you plugged your meth-madic based slim dongle-berry device. In all fairness let me ask before i get too skeptical A Question: can you show us where on that phone the sim card would normally go in the phone?
I have this cool new cable I got it's magnetic and look at tada it's also iPhone charger and 4 my 3rd trick of the nite I'm sticking my sim card inside of the usb cable I said inside the usb I'm going to use this copper sticker that's right i said copper sticker ladies check it out cause I'm the master of this
I don't have a comment I have a question so is this saying that a sim locked phone that won't accept the SIM card if you put it in the drawer that you could do it on the outside and it would work or that wasn't the test
You should try by putting the Sim card in the phone! it’s nice that it’s working Sim card by the way hopefully your phone bill was paid and it’ll last you a month or so
Keep adding more tinfoil to increase reception power. In a few short months, we could be like this other kid in Canada, who uses sim cards to heat his house.
Are you happens to be an Indian? I'm always trying to think that scams and misinformation isn't part of your culture but you guys always try to prove the other way around
FYI I tried this and it really worked but was a bit slow so i plugged the other end of the usb into my homes AC plwer outlet and oh man it was soo much faster!
For the record ive got phones with deactivated sim cards and i can still connect to any open wifi if i know the password or use my hot spot on one of my phones that is active. As a matter of fact im typing this now on my old crappy a20 that hasnt had service in a year.
But WiFi USB sticks for SIM already ecist for less than 5 Euros, even adapter connections from USB to USB-c, so I don't understand why doing this manually? 🤔
Hello , I was very impressed by your post , could you tell me exactly what is the name of the cable that you have installed the sim card , Thank you very much in advence .🇨🇦✊
All you did was attached a sim card externally. All my sim cards are deactivated, so you can't use them, because I don't have an account anymore. Your sim card must be still activated and paying for an account. Just leave your sim card in the phone.
So according to this video the user authentication stored in the sim is only verified if done through the hardware in the back? If you find another way to connect the sim then it automatically bypasses the user and credit verification process?
@@tyreecenaidoo3991he's placed the sticker on the place that reads the phone companies data he bypaseed it and went straight to the address for internet
I'm confused...how does it provide free internet, if the sim chip has been deactivated? Also, are you saying that you can't put the sim card inside the phone and somehow use it, (eventhough it's deactivated)? 3rd question...does this only work on iPhones?
Several years ago..the same result could be found by getting a PAYG SIM buying one top up. Then scratching off the top up square on the SIM card which prevents the phone company from turning off the card when the top up runs out.
I was just about to say that, when he wrapped that copper tape around the whole thing and when it laps around the second it makes contact with the tree that he is trying to touch and also would be making contact with the one on the extreme left so what would that be about is what I was thinking too
@@testcomparisons I am looking forward to that. It would be useful to share a phone number with someone, like the old "party line" back in the good old Bell Telephone days.
