I would start by looking at the cellular signal bars, and trying to make an outbound call. If that works you know the SIM is working and you have connectivity to the cellular network.


What happens if you try to make your own incoming call? What do you hear? Does it go to voicemail? Or makes a ringing tone to the caller but nothing on the new phone? Or .... ?????


Depending what you just learned about how an incoming test call fails, the next place I would check is the Focus options (Do Not Disturb, etc) and Call Forwarding.
