How do I get the turbo sim to work?!

So, I got an iPhone 3g very recently. I also got a turbo sim in the mail to use the phone with t-mobile. I then updated it to 2.1 software. Then today I jailbroke it with winpwn, thinking it would let me use my t-mobile sim and turbo sim with ease.

I placed it into my phone, and the normal thing that is supposed to happen, did happen, it took a couple of minutes then t-mobile flashed into the top left...

I was soo excite,d then I looked back at my phone and it went back to the 4 dashed lines. Then would flash to No Sim. Then that would go away and would go back to the four dashed lines. Then t-mobile would flash and then it would have normal bars, then the bars would dissapear but it would still say t-mobile. Then t-mobile would dissapear and would go back to the 4 dashed lines.

This process just continued over and over until i took the sim out or turned off the phone.

So now I am desperate, what am I doing wrong? What can i do to fix it? I am so close to being able to use it with t-mobile, yet SO FAR!!

thanks in advanced!

same thing is happening to me, i just receive my card yesterday, and when i turn the phone on, it says Tm.... but with the five bars, and after two minutes it loses signal and then its says NO SIM. I have to turn off the iphone in order to make it work for another two minutes! in those two minutes i try to send messages and it didn't work. My iphone 3G is firmware 2.1, and is not jailbraked. If someone knows how to fix this plz tell us, im tired of freaking ATT
