Sold my faulty phone

They are all saved now on my gmail account. Also saved them to my sim card for when I get my new mobile.

Bought a brand new Samsung Galaxy S off eBay for £237. Was an unwanted upgrade so quite pleased with that.:D

I got my new Galaxy this morning and everything's fine except I cant make calls or text! Internet is fine and it definitely is a t-mobile phone.

I tried getting message settings sent from the t-mobile website but haven't received a text from then. I have a message centre number on the settings so dont think that is the problem. I've also updated it to the latest gingerbread firmware but still no luck? Any idea's??????

Thanks.

Have you ticked the Use Packet Data box?

Whoops ignore me, completely misread your post! Hm that's a toughie. You tried taking the battery out and giving the sim a wipe? This probably won't work but it's worth a go.

You sure the phone hasn't been blocked after it's been sold ie reported stolen?

It has been blacklisted, currently waiting for an explanation from the seller

That's ebay for you. Buyer beware.

Been in contact and he's been really apologetic, saying he was selling it for a friend and the friend is none the wiser to why its barred. Getting a full refund though!
