This seems to be particularly common with individuals that have gel cases or other types of protective cases on their device that require the user to exert a lot of pressure on the power button to click it. The result is the phone will either randomly turn off its radio (no calls, data, or texts) giving you that “SIM card is missing error”… or the phone will randomly shutdown altogether without letting you know, usually in your pocket.
