Help help request - can receive calls but can't make them

Hello

I'm using my droid bionic in China. It's rooted

I plugged in a China Telecom sim card, which uses CDMA, and immediately received two text messages from the network. I was also able to send a text message to a friend, and he received it.

He was able to call me and I received it. But when I tried to call him, it said "no network available, emergency calls only." This is clearly bull as I've been texting and receiving calls.

I also haven't been able to get data to work, even though its a CDMA sim card.


Edit*** I originally planned to use the "unlock sim card" and call verizon to get the codes to unlock the phone. When I push that button, however, it says "no sim card detected, please insert a sim card".


Does anyone have any suggestions? I would like to be able to make phone calls and get data. I will be super super grateful to anyone who can help me, I consider myself fairly tech-affluent with windows, but not so much with android :(
