Hi Everyone!
I Feel like smacking my phone against the wall!
Here's why!
I just purchased an iPhone 4 yesterday, It is locked on the ROGERS Network here. I cut my Speakout SimCard to size, However every time I seem to put it in the phone it gives me a message "NO SERVICE"
I also went to Settings > General > About > Carrier > NOT AVAILABLE.
What do I do?
I am running on version 5.1.1 with baseband 04.12.01.
Could I have cut it wrong? That can't be! It searches for the network than says "No Service!"
PLEASE HELP!

Have you seen it working before? I had an (unlocked but still) iPhone 4 and used a SIM cutter to cut the cards I had down (T-Mobile US as well as SO) and had no problems. If you get it working you need however unlockit.co.nz to get the correct APN settings for internet.
So I would try to get hold of a Rogers SIM and test if the phone is working if you haven't done this already.

I have tried a Rogers Sim, It works on that. When I put my Speakout Sim. It right away says "No Sim" after adjusting it multiple times, It then says "No Service"
I did Home Cut my Sim. It also does not fit 100% on the sim tray. I am not sure what the problem is.

if you cannot read the sim card info, it is most likely a cut issue.

Ok, If I happen to purchase a new Sim. Will my old Value plan be transfered over?

I can recommend purchasing a SIM card cutter, even if it is only for using it once. After cutting and nail filing down my micro SIM to nano, I have to say that using a cutter is way more precise.
However, I have cut down a total of 3 SO SIMs to micro using my SIM card cutter and they all work fine.
I also had a SO SIM in a Rogers locked Samsung Android phone and that worked fine, so I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work in your iPhone 4S.

yup, 5 bucks for a cutter worth the money. mine also came with 2 micro->standard holder so i can put my bell micro-sim for ipad back into my android phone.
beside, the cutter preseve the standard SIM surrounding thus it can still be swap between android/iphone. DIY makes this impossible.
