upgraded to wm5 - no service (cannot make calls)

[evilc]

Have an O2 XDA IIs (PH20B)
I upgraded to WM2005, followed instructions.

All appears OK, except it will not connect to my operator (I cannot make a phone call)
If I click on the phone antenna at the top of the screen, then pick the network tab, the "current network" setting says "searching..."
If I click "Find Network", it says "Registering on the network..." then sets the Current Network field to "No service"

Any ideas ?
TIA

That happened to me 2 times allready, I just took the batery out, removed the SIM card, put it back again, turnd on... and the network was ok.

I thouth I had something wrong with my SIM contact on the phone, but I noticed that there are some users geting this problem, don't know, it worked for me, try it.

Messing with SIM does nothing. Defo not the sim, I have 2 and I know they both work.

I updated my radio ROM, but still no joy

On boot is says:

R: 1.13.00
G: 1337.42
D: 5.03.02 WWE

I downgraded back to 2003 and I still have the same problem !

I noticed as well that the green (top right) activity light doesn't come on at all - it seems like the radio isn't even turning on or something.

Please help !

Ignore - it turned out that I had TWO dead SIMs. So whilst I was thinking "Surely both can't be broken, it must be the phone", I was wrong.

All is good now with WM 2005 :)
Thanks all :)

Update:
Sims were NOT dead.

When replacing the SIM or removing the battery, I have to soft-reset to get the phone to work.

So, if I boot and see

R: None
G: None
D: 5.03.02 WWE

I have to reset (stick stylus in reset hole), it will then show:

R: 1.13.00
G: 1337.42
D: 5.03.02 WWE

and it will work on boot into windows.
