New replacement phone not recognising simcard

after getting a replacement phone under warranty from apple stores today, the apple genius tech set it up as a new phone so i could use it today, but said to me to erase all data when i got home and set it up as my previous phone so all my data would sync back. ... ive come home to sync it and after wiping the data, its saying that my simcard is not supported and wont let me go any further.... what can i do i have a non working phone which was working not long ago.... please help me!!!

hiya, yes ive tried that, it recognising theres a simcard there but i get a message up saying it isnt supported by the phone....  it says: 'only compatable simcards from a supported carrier may be usedto activate iphone. please insert the simcard that came with your iphone'
but it was working fine until i had to wipe it so i could set it up as my prexisting phone with apps

    Try to change your Apple ID back to your old email address (http://appleid.apple.com) in order to set up and activate the phone. After the set up please sign out of iCloud and turn off "Find My iPhone" (Settings > iCloud) - do that on all your devices -, then change your Apple ID to your new address again and then add your iCloud account on you devices again.

    Slide up from the bottom of your display to access the control panel.
    Look for the button (should be at the top) that shows a crescent moon.
    Tap that button. It should say "Do not Disturb: Off".
    Then try it out and let us know if it worked.

    recently had to purchase a replacement phone a friend of mine had backed up the data on the lost phone to his Mac laptop how do I get that backed up data from the lost iPhone that's on his Mac laptop to my new replacement phone? Please give step by step instructions xoxoxo
    And my iTunes sign in is also screwed up... It is underneath my friends email (the one with my backed up data on his Mac laptop) HOW DO I CHANGE THIS SO THAT I CAN DOWNLOAD APP's again...

    I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone.  Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

    Hi,
    I am interested to use Thuraya Vehicle Docking Kit (By SatCom) in my project. My hardware contains a PIC microcontroller (Having host USB support). I want to interface this Thuraya Set to the PIC controller using USB and want to develop an embedded application which will configure the Thuraya Set and will make me able to use Thuraya Set as phone. But the problem is that I could not get any technical low level details or commands as you shown in your question. Could you please help me in getting this USB Interface details. I am anxiously waiting for your reply. If you are not the concerned one just let me know about the persons dealing for this.

  • Backup Assistant won't let me restore MMS to my new replacement phone....why?

    My original Curve's cursor button suddenly stopped working.  So I couldn't use it to check email, SMS or MMS messages.  While waiting on my replacement Curve to arrive I received 4 new text messages, at least two of them were MMS (I could tell by the alarm).  My new replacement arrived today, but the backup assistant won't transfer any MMS's to my new Curve.  How can I fix this?  Can I just read them online somewhere?

    Hi,
    I know you stated you have a replacement device already, but did you try a battery pull on your old device.  If not, pull the battery and put it back to allow the device to reboot.  Maybe that will jog your device's trackball into working.  Also, with your device off, place it on a hard surface and press the trackball down while moving it in different directions.  That might get it going enough for you to get some things off your old device.  Anyways, hope this helps.

  • Replacement phones NOT from Assurion

    I got the Incredible the day it released on Verizon. I never had any real trouble with it until 2 weeks ago when the screen stopped working. I called CS and they sent out a replacement device using my extended warranty, NOT my TEC with Assurion.
    5 replacements were sent to me all with the same issue of power cycling, turning off for no reason, going through a factory reset without my knowledge (it happened while I was sleeping). To Verizons credit the CS reps really did try to help me. Finally I was given the option to upgrade to the Incredible 2. It arrived yesterday and after 2 hours on the phone with CS it was determined I would have to have another Incredible 2 sent to me. I recieved it today, same issue. The phone cannot be activated. 7 phones, all defective. Is this a common problem?
    I'm furious and because Verizon is the bohemoth they are I can't get any real help. I need a working phone. 13 days without a working phone is unacceptable. And the only solution is to make me wait for another "certified" phone? Bullsh*t.

    I really do understand your problem.  I had had the Palm Pre Plus, and it was a great phone when it worked.  But I went through 5 replacement phones.  Was going to to my 6th replacement when reviewing my notes.  Found that they had started that they would send out a replacement phone of my choice.  It would be a refub phone.  Choose the Droid Pro.  I received it quickly, but didn't receive the battery for it until a couple of days later.  By then the keyboard had stopped working on the pro.  Got another replacement for the Pro.  So far so good. 
    In your case am not sure of the Incredible is a refub phone or not.  But I know that the Droid X's work wonderful.  My daughter has had hers for over a year, and the only thing every went wrong was the battery dying.  That is another story on getting that replacement.   But you should try the Droid X.
    Good luck.  I again understand.
