Tried a different SIM card? Just borrow a friends and see if it works with that.

If it's a SIM card, an OS will not help.

what can i do with the 9900 so my sim works on it???

What carrier are you on? The 9900 is branded to what carrier?

Where did you buy it? New/sealed?

It may have become "blacklisted".....

Hate to say it buddy, but I had this problem and the resolution was to replace the phone.

Mine worked for 3 days before it just randomly started showing the error. I did a search here and came up with very little. There was one instance though were someone was using the phone with a micro sim and adapter. When removing it the adapter bent the pins out of place - not a big fix but from what I remember but not something you could do yourself.

Hope this helps.
