My iphone inserted sim but no service why?
Most likely Because your phone from the US market hasn't been unlocked.

In Find my iphone apps. You can see that the phone is online but location services off. How that happened?
You'll have to turn location services on in order to track it on a map. To do this, go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services.

i got an iphone 4 from one of my freind from uk he gifted me.when insert sim its showing no service available,i don no whether it is locked or not?but i can see the applications only thing is that the network is not showing.please suggest ?
According to Apple (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937) all UK carriers sell their iPhones locked, even though they also all offer unlocking. So, as mentioned, contact your friend and ask them did they get it unlocked? If not, which carrier did they get it from so you can contact that carrier and request an unlock.

i got problem updating my iphone 3g. my phone doesn't work now. it says no service and can not be activated.beside that it says insert sim even it has sim. please help me.
I have just created this account to tell you that nothing would change if you restored your phone.
The first NO SIM nuisance happened just a week ago. Nothing had been done to the phone before that. I pressed HOME + POWER buttons to restart the phone and SIM card was successfully recognized as if nothing had happened. Then I had a lucky week, not reminded of this issue at all.
Today, however, the same problem keeps annoying me. I've used the same method to heal the phone but all I have done seems more like a placebo. So I tried the ultimate solution, restroing it in iTunes.
Ridicuously, the moment I finished basic setup on the newly restored phone, the same NO SIM CARD INSTALLED message poped up.
So IMO, it's not what you should do to erase and restore your phone.
Plus, I called my native carrier and they said no such problems have been submitted. And since my nano SIM card is quite new (three months old), I'm not going to replace it.
I googled this problem and found something on a Hong Kong webpage. The author of that thread points out that there is a flaw in the SIM card tray that prevents the phone from successfully recognizing SIM cards.
And I really hope Apple could probe into this issue and give official solutions other than restarting / restoring the phone like an idiot. -
i have iPhone 3G with ios 4 but now i update new version and my phone is not working.it is not activating..when i tried it says please insert sim and try again..any one plez help
Try this article if you haven't already
This is the only possibility that came to my mind when reading about your issue:
"If an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is not recognized in iTunes on Windows, the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) may need to be restarted" -

If you're still experiencing No Service, contact your carrier to check for any network or account issues that could cause these problem. -
Many of the times my Iphone 3G 16GB shows "No Service" in the specific network area, but if the same sim card is used with other mobile handset in the same network area its shows full network, Is this a Iphone 3G Handset problem or is it a problem with network service provider for iphone in india with Airtel.
Try to reset Network setting thru (Setting/General/Reset/Reset Network Setting - after clicking on it the phone will ask to reboot)
According to my R&D I have experienced that one must reset the network each time when we r at home or in office or other places, the phone after resetting the network setting acquires the area specific network setting n works well, try it & if any other solution do let me known
Calling up customer care did not help me, they do keep us in a loop with the same old answeres that “Our technical team is working on it & WILL GET BACK TO u” leaving us with no solution at the end
Try what I suggest think to will help u -

Yes, contact the carrier the iPhone is locked to.

i already restored my iphone succesfully using an itunes on my desktop, my iphone restarts and to configure language,country etc.unfortunately, activating my iphone is not possible itunes told me to insert a sim but my simcard was inserted...help me pls.
Most likely, your phone was previously hacked to carrier unlock. When you restored the phone, the hack was removed and the phone re-locked to its original carrier. It now will recognize only the SIM card from that carrier, and can be used only with that carrier.
