Re: problem with sim
Have you tried the sim card in another phone? If it works, then its not the sim card. If it is the sim card, you can go into a local Cingular dealer or on Ebay and purchase a new sim card. If you buy it at a dealer they should be able to activate it for you, and if you buy online then just call CS to activate it.

Re: problem with sim
You need to call Cingular and have them registered your sim card in their system.

Re: problem with sim
Oh I see, you already have a new sim card. Tony is correct, just call CS and they will ask for the sim card number(located on the sim card) and then activate it for you.

Re: problem with sim
not understanding you, do you mean when you put the sim card in your phone you have no service? are you getting any error messages?

Example if you are in the USA, the Frequency band should be set to 850/1900mhz
If you are in Europe, the Frequency band should be set to 900/1800mhz

Re: problem with sim
If you don't have the correct network setting your phone will simply not have any signal, it will not show a "no service message" as long as you're using the correct sim card for the carrier you are using.
