Hello all,

I just got my Speakout sim card from 7-11 and had it activated. I was told by the customer service rep to turn off the phone for 30 mins and make a call to 611. Unfortunately, I turned on my phone only to find out my S3 cannot locate the network and can only make emergency calls.

What is the deal here? I've tried rebooting my phone and such, but no luck.

Here are my phone specs:

Rogers, Samsung Galaxy SIII i747 variant, GSM and HSPA.

Thanks. Please ask me for more info if needed.

I'm assuming that you cut your SIM to a micro SIM for the S3. You may have cut your SIM incorrectly.

Nope, I don't think so. None of the contacts (metal part) are cut off, and I lined it up to my rogers sim and it seems to match up almost 100%.
