When my son inserted a T-mobile sim card, there was an error saying "SIM NOT PROVISIONED"Is this becasue the phone is locked or because of faulty SIM?

Most likely the sim card. I have T-Mobile sim card and it worked right away when I put it in. Either that or the phone was not properly unlocked.

I recommend that you go to the telephone company and take the cell phone, so they check it

Normally this is because the phone is not unlocked. Provisioned meaning to set up a line or network for a customer. This is an industry term used by the telephone companies. Put the same sim on another gsm phone, make a call using the sim. If this works. You know it's the phone. Sometimes turning the phones airplane mode on and off after installing the card works too.

I tried that as my sister borrowed my phone and as soon we placed the SZ card of TMobile , it still asked us to contact the provider which is the T-Mobile. We were not able to use it,I even bought 2 of them.

We tried the sim card from an Att phone and a T--Mobile phone and neither one worked. The connector on the back of the sim card did not line up with the phone . This phone must be one of the original phones and do not work wiith current sim cards.

it is missing if not in the slot provided , there should be a card where the sim was detached from included

There are two possibilities: first you inserted wrong sim or sim is damaged.

I'm actually unsure the phone was not completely unlocked and I was unable to use it with t-mobile so I had to return it

it's not unlock. You have to call t-mobile customer service in order to unlock it. It can be unlock here in the US or Jamaica. Just remember tat a fee will be applied. It could be used to any country's provider that carries sim

I'm not sure. I opened the sealed box. Then I put my tmobile card in and my data card in and it worked fine.

Been awhile since I used mine but I checked it out. I see a button on the side that says lock and no sim slot.

Our carrier is AT&T; so when I plugged in the SIM card it worked fine. I do not know about T-Mobile

This is an unlocked phone. If you specifically got this specific unlocked phone from Amazon, then there should be no issues. If you got it elsewhere, your phone may not be unlocked for the T-Mobile network. If The case, Google "unlocking Samsung t-139." Otherwise, you need to return your phone, or get a new Sim. Try your Sim in another phone & see if it works to isolate that it's the phone & not the sim.

If you called T-Mobile and they have activated the sim for you and in their system the sim is showing active than its not an issue with the sim, it's your phone. Reset your phone or go to a local phone store have them configure the phone for you with the proper settings or you can configure the phone settings yourself using link from online. Search tmobile sim settings configuration for whatever phone you are using. Hope this helps, good luck.

good afternoon to buy a Alcatel One Unlocked GSM Touchscreen Evolve AT & T T-mobile; when I put my simcard does not accept any phone line to Venezuela as I do to use it because when I try to register it manually or automatically tells me it can not connect try again later, as you might help

Personally I am not using it with T-Mobile as it wasn't very difficult to unlock it myself (there are instructions out there online) but I can't imagine there being a significant difference between a prepaid and post-paid Sim. You might however need to look into whether your Sim is provisioned for 4g services

Looks like unmade an error in setting up the sim card in the device. Try setting up the sim card again using your instruction booklet.

It does arrive locked to "T-Mobile", however, attached to the phone box are instructions on how to UNLOCK the phone before you put a SIM card into the phone. I cannot tell you if the instructions work because we r T-Mobile customers, therefore, had no need to "unlock" the phone. If this issue is a concern, when we were shopping for this phone there were phones on Amazon that were already "unlocked".
