I have a jailbroken 1.1.2 otb uk iphone. I recently purchased a nextsim (v4) from ebay which didnt work. Finally i realised the seller had sent me a us version instead of a uk version. So the new one arrived this morning and put it into the phone.

Vodafone uk now comes up as carrier and i can sens sms but whenever someone tries to call me or i call them nothing happens (as though there is no signal) i get "call failed message", when someone tries to call me it says call failed or call not authorised. It also says "call forwarding active" but maybe this is normal ( in spite of owning an iphone for a month i still haent been able to make a call) Does anyone have any idea what is going on?

hi
did you buy this i phone from new?

if not i could be stolen and be barred. i got a iphone from ebay i used next sim 3 same as you i could send text but all calls failed this was strange so i went into an O2 store and they check imie and told me iphone was listed as stolen/lost

Yes i purchased it from ebay: the seller said that he found it!

Is there anything i can do?

1st you need to find out if it has been reported as lost/stolen go into O2 store ask them to check imei number but don't let them have the phone

if its been reported and you paid by paypal go to them and ask for your money back. you will need to go into a police station and get a written report that you can fax to paypal when they ask for it

good luck
