SP5, Sim profile requirements, or just a dodo?

[Guest vk2003]

Have just bought a B Grade SP5 from Expansys. Was advertised as being just opened and returned - in other words the previous purchaser bought it, opened the box, started the phone up, and then returned it as was explained to me on the phone.

Anyways... the phone is in short Unreliable, and seems to crash all the time. Actvate WiFi, and it bins. Enter the menu system and it bins. Open PIE, and yep, it bins.

So... have I just bought a Dodo, or could it be the sim I am using?

I have a new Sim from O2, which was sent to me this week, along with a Motorola RAZR *spit*

I never had any intention of using the latter, as it simply came with the deal, but could it be that this sim is not designed for this sort of phone (I remember having a similar problem some years ago on Orange when I had the wrong sim "profile" for the phone)

Am still within the returns period so could just send it back, stop being a tight wad and buy a new one :-)

Any advice?

TIA
