I got problem with my network after I switch the SIM card.

I've go back to china in my summer holiday and of cause switched to a chinese SIM card. But im not able to use any software to get on the internet with it although it does show 3g on the top left coner. everthing else are working fine, i can dail, pick up phone calls, send or recieve messages, and one of online chating software which is a bit like MSN is still functioning. I've asked local shops and customer service, and tried everything they suggest like reset network, reset the whole phone and i even recovered it to its initial status, but the network still the same. The SIM card works fine and it is able to connect the internet on my friends cell phone, and i used it last summer holidy without any problem at all.
I'm guessing there might be some setup problem after i upgraded the system, I really hope someone can help me with this problem.

Hi,
What version of the OS did you upgrade from ?
Anything before OS X 10.8.2 may have an issue if the Logic/Mother board has been replaced and the Serial Number not "flashed" back to it.
In the Apple Icon menu use the About this Mac item.
In the new panel click twice on the line that tells you the current OS level
It will change to the Build number (and alternative count to the OS versions) and then the Serial Number.
If it is missing you need to get it replaced.
(It is supposed to be done on Repair or Refurbishment).
An Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider as the best choices.
There are apps you can download (They are Mac Model specific) but needs careful typing as it is a once only trip.

    Hello i have one IPhone 4S and I use 3G net in my mobile sometime I have problem with temperature in my phone at the SIM card or battery how can I fix this problem. By update or version of 6.1.3

    Could it be because the SIM card got damaged while I cut it to fit the IPhone?
    Very likely. Hard to believe the carrier in Mexico doesn't have a micro-SIM card available.
    Or somehow the Chinese carrier found out and locked it?
    No, which is not possible.
    What can I do? Get a new SIM and see if it works again?
    Get a micro-SIM from the carrier in Mexico that you don't have to manually cut down. If that carrier doesn't provide one, switch to another carrier that is not so low-budget.

    Appreciate your support to solve this issue.

    Sorry to butt in again:
    But your original post(s) were not so clear.
    So if your original phone WAS locked and the LOCKED one got replaced from the APPLE store...then there is a 100% chance it IS locked.
    Sorry, but there is no such thing as a free lunch...
    Check with Apple anyways...

  • How long does it take for the phone to get full service after you insert the sim card???

    I got my Droid Incredible in the mail today, and inserted the sim card and somehow online I think I deactivated my old phone, and I've been waiting for my new phone to receive full service for maybe over an hour now. I cannot call customer service or anything because both my old and new phone cannot make any calls because neither of them are activated. Please help!

    I had a similar issue activating by HTC DNA.  The activation instructions Verizon sends are horrible since they explicitly mention that you do not need to call in to activate your phone.  I left my SIM activation running overnight and it just didn't work.  I finally called Verizon from my work phone the next day and the agent informed me that you do need to call to activate your SIM card.  You will need to have your SIM card ready when you call (to provide the long string of numbers on the back of the card).  Hope this helps!

  • Problem with 3G network after ios 6.1 upgrade on iphone 3Gs.

    I have a iphone 3Gs and not a 5 or 4 and since my ios 6.1 upgrade it's a nightmare for me.  I meet a lot of reliability issue with the 3G network. Before the 6.1 upgrade it worked fine. My carrier provider is SFR. It seems to be a "bug" only with 3G. Maybe it's the same as 4Gs but not corrected for 3Gs.
    By example I'm using my iphone to join a Free Number to join a confcall system and everytime after sometimes 3 minutes or 15 minutes I'm automatically disconnected - nobody is hearing me and I have to switch off and to reconnect.  Others collegue working with me having a iphone 3Gs meet the same issue as me with 3G network.
    Do you plan to release the 6.1.1 version for iphone 3Gs ? if yes ? when ?

    After testing workaround to disable WIFI when I'm using 3G network. It worked for 1 confcall during 1 hour !! but for the second confcall the duration was only 6 minutes and the network was cut !!! the workaround doesn't work !.
    I'm surprise because I don't find similar issue on Internet with "Reliability of 3G on iphone 3Gs after ios 6.1 upgrade!!".
    This morning during a call this message appears "Could not activate cellular data network".
    Are you in the same case as me ? Do you have a workarounf for me ?

  • Problems with wifi network after waking from sleep

    I have recently started using a new wifi network and have had some problems connecting to it. When i first tried to connect it gave a message that said "An error occured while trying to join". After some trial and error, I found that I could connect by going to network preferences, clicking "Assist me...", then "Diagnositcs...", clicking the AirPort dot then continue, then clicking on the network name and continue, then it prompts for a password, but there isnt one so i just pushed continue and all of a sudden it connected. I figured it was functional now, but after waking it from sleep mode, the error message popped back up. The only way I know to connect is through that annoying diagnostics path... What is the Problem, is it the computer or the router or the settings on the admin computer? (by the way, I don't know what kind of router it is, but its definantly not an apple airport)

    Sorry to drag this back up, but I may have found the source of the problem, I just need the solution. When I first created settings for the network, it automatically "detected" that the security was WPA2 Enterprise, and knowing there was no password, I just pushed join and it saved it that way. When I go through diagnositics as described before, it lists WEP as the encryption. I had a friend with almost the same problem, but in tiger. They were able to fix it by changing the encryption on the login screen that comes up when you click on the network name from the menu bar. But that screen no longer exists in Leopard, it only goes by previous settings. How do I change the encryption in settings, I'm sure it will fix the problem...

  • Production Premium CS6 syncing problem with premiere to after effects. "The importer reported a generic error."

    I have CS6 Production Premium suite. I've had it and it works fine on my laptop for a couple years and just bought a new apple desktop and now when I have a project in premiere, it won't allow me to send it to After Effects. I keep getting a "The importer reported a generic error." Really need to get this problem resolved as the laptop is not as fast as it used to be, and I'm working on a short film haha.
    Thank you for your time and help.
    All the best,

    If you carefully follow all of the instructions in this tip and none of them restore WiFi then your radio chip has failed and you need to get the phone replaced by Apple.
