Just a couple of dumb questions from a NOOB. I just picked up an unlocked Rogers Bold 9000 and put in the SIM card from my Telus 8830. However, the phone doesn't "see" any networks other than Rogers.
Two questions:
1) Is it the SIM card that causes the phone to "see" networks? Or should I be able to see the telus/bell hsdpa network without a functioning SIM card?
2) Should the SIM card from my 8830 work? If not, how do I "activate" the SIM card once I purchase it from telus? From what I can gather from the website it seems as though I have to order a new data plan to activate it. I just want to use my existing voice/data plan but with the new "handset". Am I hooped?
Thanks in advance!
