Sep 6, 2012 2:40 PM in response to oscar_umarby razmee209,Where did you get/buy this phone? You can try getting a different sim card, but I don't think that will help.
When you see those sim message it usually means that the phone was illegal unlocked and when you restore your phone it locks back to the original phone carrier.

The other possibility is that the phone was hacked or jailbroken. If this is the case updating it caused the problem, and there is no easy solution and no solution that can be discussed in an Apple-hosted forum.
