Nextel I90C with Boost SIM

Hey, I got a problem with my I90C and the SIM. I used to have Boost Pre Paid SIM with Boost Mobile I215 phone. I just got a unlocked Nextel Motorola I90C and put my Boost SIM card in and it worked fine.

I can make a call and I get full service but when I try and save a contact into the phone book and click "done" it says "Check SIM" and then I can't do anything until I power off. When I power it back on it's not saved and it worked before but then it got erased when I took the battery out.

All my contacts work fine with the SIM in the I215 and I thought the SIM was maybe full so I saved and deleted all the contacts and tried it again on the I90C but it still says "check SIM"

Does anyone know what's wrong with it or what I have to do to get it to work? Has that happened to any of you? Thanks guys

You need an older 32k sim to work in the 2 digit phones(i60-i99) Condor series line. The newer 3 digit Falcon series phones (i205-i930 use 64k sim cards). There isnt anything that you can do. Either buy a newer phone or buy an older sim card.

He only has one option and is get a newer phone since all Boost SIM cards are 64K
