Please do not double post as once is enough.

And also, please do not post using text speak. The lack of capitalization, punctuation and decent sentence structure makes your post very hard to read and understand, especially for our non-native English speaking members.

And you will get a quicker response if we can read your post.

Have you tried making a call with the Orange SIM inserted? It may connect to the network but not be able to make/receive calls if the IMEI has been blocked.
