I got a Motorola Google Nexus 6 phone which takes a nano SIM card. I cut down my existing SIM as far as I could and it worked in the Nexus but the SIM tray wouldn't shut properly so I ordered a brand new nano SIM.
When the nano SIM came I could not get it to work at all. The phone would not detect the presence of the SIM card. I tried wedging paper under it, cleaning contacts, factory reset, software downgrade and nothing would work.
This same nano SIM worked perfectly in another handset, I tried another working nano SIM in the Nexus and that wouldn't work either.
I then tried pushing the SIM tray as hard as I could and surprisingly the SIM was registered by the handset and it indicated full signal.
Short Answer:
Push the SIM tray in as hard as you can!!!
This appears to be some kind of mechanical defect with the Nexus 6 as recorded in many threads.
