1) Are you sure your phone is set for either GSM Mode or Global Mode?

3) Have you checked to confirm the SIM works in another phone?

I recently got back from Mexico, where my TelCel SIM's worked fine in our TP2's. When the phones were in Global Mode they wanted to use the CDMA signal that was available where we were (and would have resulted in large roaming charges on Sprint) but in GSM Mode everything worked as planned.
