Guest Teasy Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Just received my new Orange San Francisco. Put in my Orange contract sim from my Nokia 5800 but despite it saying the phone is on the orange network and the signal being on full 4 bars I can't make any calls or send messages. Though strangely enough I can use Orange GPRS internet.
Guest zomig Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 This has already been answered in a previous thread, you need to activate the phone/sim by going to www.orange.co.uk/activate as it states on your invoice at the bottom. this will then lift the bar on the phone.
Guest Teasy Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) I thought I would only have to do this if I was using the new sim that came with the phone? So I need to activate the new sim which will also unlock the phone? I'll give that a try. Edited October 11, 2010 by Teasy
Guest cocole Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 i had the same problem and registering the payg sim worked for me

Guest Teasy Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Ok thanks, did the activation process online and am waiting for them to do the business. Thanks again for the help, I did a search on here to see if it was mentioned before but couldn't find it.

Guest oh!dougal Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 ... I did a search on here to see if it was mentioned before but couldn't find it. Really? Take a read through this thread. http://android.modaco.com/content/forum/31...ms-not-working/
Guest Teasy Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) Thanks but its sorted now, it just started working about 20 minutes ago. Love the phone so far, I've been playing Angry Birds, I'd actually never played it before. Edited October 11, 2010 by Teasy
