Open up the battery slot should be under a flat battery. First, switch off your phone. Remove the back of your phone and you should see the battery. The SIM card will either be visible beside the battery, or it will be beneath the battery. Remove the battery to gain access to the SIM card. The SIM card can then be slid out of its holder. You can then replace the SIM with a new SIM. Make sure it is in the correct way and replace the battery and the cover. Switch phone back on.
With the advent of CDMA and GSM mobile cell phones entering the market, Sim cards are fading out gradually. But for the SIM phones that are still in use, the SIM chip is usually located underneath the battery inside the phone. The SIM card contains critical information needed by your Cellular service to identify your phone, and result in connectivity to make and receive calls. I am not sure if these SIM cards can be configured by the cell phone, and if not, you would have to have the SIM card programmed by the appropriate Cellular service, (typically at one of their site stores). Most older phones are not cross-compatible with other Cellular carriers, hence the term proprietary.
The SIM card can store information from the user. Newer SIM cards have more memory than older cards. Some of the newer GSM phones have two SIM card slots. This allows you to have a SIM card for the U.S> in one slot and a SIM card for, say Europe, in the other slot. This is oftern cheaper than trying to use either CDMA or TDMA phones in different locales. A big advantage is that you can change GSM phones quickly by just moving over the SIM card... no need to contact or visit a provider!
Remove the back cover and the battery (or the back/battery as some devices are made as a one piece unit) and you will find it under the battery. Some devices will have a slot that it slides into and others may have a tray that it fits in or under, either way you should be able to see at least a part of the SIM card somewhere in the battery compartment. For further information on your specific device consult your owners manual or contact your service provider.
Put the SIM card from the new phone into the old one. Copy the contacts from the old phone's memory to the SIM card. Put the SIM car back in the new phone - then - either copy the contacts to the new phone's memory - or leave them on the SIM card. Either way - the new phone will find them.

If you know who the service provider is for your phone, and it happens to be either AT&T, or T-Mobiles, then your phone does have a SIM card. 2. You could open the back of your phone and look carefully to see if you see a SIM card. If you do not see a SIM card, then gently remove the battery from it's compartment and look under the battery. If you see a SIM card, then your phone does use a SIM card.
