2009/7/10 li...@kitepilot.com: My new phone doesn't see my ATT SIM card... The card is OLD. As in 5 years OLD (or more). So old, that it broke the Treo when I pulled it out... (screw the Treo) I've done some reading about the SIM stuff. I'm dizzy already, I don't understand none of that stuff... Can anybody give a quick and dirty answer about what to do next? Thanks! depending on how money-grabbing your provider is, you may or may not be able to get a new sim for free (mine was $30) failing that, have you got the newest gsm firmware? that fixes several gsm-related bugs. there's a page on the wiki with simple instructions on how to fix it - thsi is to be recommended regardless of a new sim or not which distro are you using? the newer distros based upon fso might be more helpful - have you tried om2009/shr yet? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Just got the phone... The Sdg guy asked me what system I wanted and I told him to install the most likely to work out of the box... It has some sort QT stuff running. Don't know too much else...

There's nothing wrong with sending them to this list, but if you're having problems just getting started, I'll bet you'll find getting help on the IRC channel to be more efficient.

I'll make a couple of assumptions: 1)You're in the US 2)The OS SDG loaded is QTopia or it's ilk. If assumption 1 is correct; Go to your local ATT store, show them your SIM card (I'll bet it's corroded if it broke the Treo on the way out), tell them to give you a replacement, put the replacement in your Freerunner, smile :). If the ATT geeks tell you you need to upgrade, buy, or in any other way pay for a new SIM, look at them like they just lied to you, and repeat your request. If that fails, go to another store, or ask for a manager. They can replace your SIM free of charge.
