If ur phone is cdma network.... you cant use it with a simcard of gsm network and vice versa.....
sometimes phones are locked to a particular network.... so if you move away from that network and try to access ur phone in another network in another location it wont be accessible....
for example some samsung mobiles can be used only in middle east and not outside the place.... coz they are locked to that network....
also if the above is not ur case ....some sim cards take some time to activate....
the only option for u at this point would be to use the old sim card that u were using and when the fone actually worked.... in the same location where u had it working.... if its working.... and ur able to calls and receive them there is nothing wrong in ur phone..... you will have to contact ur service provider (network) for activating the new sim on ur mobile....
good luck
regards iversh

When I get calls I cant see the incoming number it only shows call how do I get the number to show to see who is calling

This is the problem with the SIM card. You need to get a new SIM card from your network provider.
Also, please insert some other sim card in phone and check if it shows the number.

Hi i have a samsung SCH-W339 mobile the problem is i have inserted many sim cards but it displays limited service instead of displaying the sim name and i cant make outgoing calls neither i recieve...

1. Your sim card is not in the right position. Take out your battery and your sim card. Make sure it is in the right position. Also make sure no dust or dirt where the sim card goes. Put the sim card back in your phone and battery. Turn it on. See if the insert sim card goes away.

2. If it goes not, then you will need a new sim card. Go to your local service provider store to get a new one.

Iphone no incoming or outgoing calls possible

Make sure "airplane mode" is set to off

Check your sim card is properly inserted
You should be prompted for the sim pin number when the iphone loads up (if it has one set). If the pin number is not entered the sim card will not register with your provider.


If you open settings, what is next to "carrier" ?
it should state your provider there.
If it doesn't, tap it and see if it will list your carrier, by default the iphone is set to automatic, you may need to manually select your provider.

If none of this works, give a detailed description of what has been tried and any other details you can

Insert sim card

the problem is on the simcard connector, there is a 6 pin on it, i think there's a CUT LINE behind on it, or probably sa CPU,, you must consult a technician on it

Cant call

These devices are made to work in both modes you may have to reset, remove the battery while the cell is on and count to 30, then replace battery and power back on this should work! If it does'nt call your provider and check Sim card.
