I unlocked my nokia 3390 using the calculator program and everything looks fine

it takes the sim card but when i try to call someone, it says "System Busy"

any ideas?

Does it do this with any SIM card you put in it?

k i just tested it out
this phone was originally locked to fido
i tried 2 rogers sims and they both say system busy when i try to make a call
i then tried a fido sim and it works just fine

So when you enter the Rogers SIM everything looks OK? As in it doesn't say anything like enter provider code or something similar? Does the screen say anything at all when you enter the SIM? Does it just say Rogers AT&T?

old thread, i know

i just thought of this though... try punching in *3370#

this will active enhanced full rate codec, something that GSM nokias sometimes need to have reactivated... ive noticed this on the 8390
