No(/poor(one bar)) Service - Wifi works - What to do?
Hello,
I recently bought a second-hand iPhone 3GS 32GB Black. It's without an unlock so all simcards should work.
Nevertheless, no simcard works, the iPhone keeps saying 'No service' most of the time and occasionally I have one bar.
I tried different simcards. Didn't work.
I tried another iPhone 3GS with the same sim on the same locations and this one has perfect service.
I tried updating to the newest (4.3.5) firmware. Didn't work.
I tried a full reset. Didn't work.
I tried resetting the network configurations. Didn't work.
Could you guys please help me?
I've been searching the internet for hours and hours but no solution yet.
Is this a good question?

have you done an imei check?

It now connects with my provider (Vodafone).
It reached 4 bars for like 10 seconds and then jumped back to 1/2 bars, does that mean anything?

has the phone any damage to the rear case or has it been opened?

Yes, it has a hairline crack near the dock connector. Let me take a picture of it and I'll show it here.
The previous owner said the screen has been replaced, so yes, the phone has been opened.
