Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / UK Group / January 2008SIM card & GPRS/3G ...
Just before I go whinging at O2, can anyone advise me if an issue I have is to do with my SIM card, or the network settings... I've had the same SIM card for donkeys years on various O2 contracts just moving from phone to phone as I've gone on. Upgraded the phone recently to a Nokia E90 (Had a 9500i before), and all is mostly well. The phone can make traditional GPRS calls, an when I put it into 3G only mode, can still make voice calls when in a 3G enabled area... But I don't seem to be able to make data calls via 3G - only via GPRS... So, is it the SIM card, or something else that needs to be noodled with at the O2 (or phone?) end? Cheers, Gordon >Just before I go whinging at O2, can anyone advise me if an issue I have >is to do with my SIM card, or the network settings...

Given that it's some 8 years old and 3G hadn't been invented then, I suspect it doesn't support it! >You'll have to ask o2 or your service provider for a replacement SIM. OK. Thanks!

I did this recently. They took the details over the phone and shipped me out a new sim. When the sim was shipped O2 deactivated the old sim which meant I was without my phone for about 24 hours until the postie shoved the new sim through the door. When it was delivered I put it in the phone and that was it. All existing credit had been moved onto the new sim automatically. > Gordon |
