If you purchased your phone through Zain, its possible that the phone is 'locked' to that carrier.


Carriers often sell phones at a discount, making up the difference over the life of a contract (e.g. 12- or 24- months).


The carrier can unlock the phone, which will allow other SIMs to be used. You'll need to contact Zain and ask them to do that.
