If it is today, I can probably help as I have the micro-sim cutter. But if it is tomorrow, it's gonna be tough since a few of us are making a day trip down to Singapore.

After you've hole-punched your normal sim into micro-sim, you can purchase a micro-to-normal sim adapter to reuse it back on other normal phones. Contact Beavis68 for details.

DIY - SIM to Micro-SIM

user posted image
Place a white paper over the ip4 micro sim tray, then get a firm n nice crease by molding the paper against the micro sim cut out.

user posted image
Get a pen n draw the outline of the crease.

user posted image
Cut it, and the piece of paper should fit the micro sim tray.

user posted image
Mask the cut pies of paper over ur SIM and draw an outline with a pen. Then carefully cut the SIM with a sharp pair of scissors.

user posted image
Use a pair of nail file to make micro adjustments to the cut SIM. This is to ensure that the chip is not damaged.

Eventually u will have a nice fit.

Take ur time doing it. Cut less then file coz if u over cut, u can't go back.
Have fun.

This tutorial was made by steps that have been informed and posted by some forumers here.
Good luck.

Bro - Thank you and a very good effort you have taken to demo the steps. Very sure it'd be great help to those who are uncertain and have doubts doing it.
To add to shumaky steps, if necessary to trim the gold edges it is safe to trim off slightly the horizontal top and bottom edges NOT the vertical rhs and lhs edges.

I'm posting this on behalf of a friend of mine. Here's her query pertaining the microSIM being used for Apple's iPhone 4.

She said it is possible for an existing mini-SIM to be used for the iPhone 4 in Sinagpore now. Is this true? I'm skeptical about this motion but that was what she said thou. Any reassurance about this piece of information?

As far as I know, the iPhone 4 requires a microSIM, right? Enlightenment please.

Regards, Joey

Maybe what her friends meant by using mini sim is that by cutting their existing mini sim

Thanks for the reassurance. That's what I have been in the knowing. It came out as a hearsay from a friend of mine this morning. Thanks everyone that provided the answer. I'll relay the news to her and say it's microSIM to be exact. Cheerio!

the mini-SIM is a different size & shape from a micro-SIM. so there's no way it can fit.

For flexibility, have a micro-sim adapter. That way, when you need to use your micro-sim in a normal sim card slot, you can.

By the way guys, any fan of bullet hell style game here? Download Dodonpachi Resurrection now! Game is awesome!

Also downloaded R-Type yesterday. I cannot believe the game is 23 years old. Feels just as fun (and frustrating cos so susah) playing it today as before.

I'm predicting that Apple will announce that they will be shipping the iPhone 4 to more countries including Malaysia for September during the iPod event on 1st September.

hi guys,

would like to seek some clarification and information here.

both parties need to log in to a wifi before this could work, right?

thanks.
