Help! iPhone won't recognize Sim card

greetings from Athens!
I have a similar problem, I have bought a locked iPhone 4 32gb from the US (I'm using it in Greece currently) in the summer, I have the 4.0 iOS, baseband 01.59.00 and jailbroken. For the last days, several times the phone gets the no service message or sim failure, I have to either switch on and off the airplane mode, or to reset network settings or to hard reset to make it get a signal. Do you know what is going on? The problem has occured only a couple of times since I got the phone but not so often as the last 2 days.

Is the iPhone unlocked as well, or no? That sometimes happens to me with my iPhone 4 on AT&T. It drives me insane. A hard reset fixes the issue.
I think the phone is still locked, I have tried hard reset, it works fine for a couple of hours and then ''no service'' or sim failure, I will try to update to 4.1 this weekend, keeping the same baseband ofcourse, hopefully I will get some better results
Is Ultrasn0w installed? Cydia > Manage > Resources > repo666.ultrasn0w.com > Ultrasn0w > Install
Saved my shsh with tinyubrella, but when i try to manually restore to 4.1, itunes say cannot restore error 1604..
If you're using T-Mobile U.S. make sure you have 3G off. It could be that something is wrong with your sim card. Uninstall and reinstall ultrasn0w.
done that, iphone is still with 4.0 ios, searching forum for 1604 error solution, thanks for your help
Are your host files edited? After that, put your iPhone in DFU mode then restore to 4.1
i will try to do that the soonest possible, I will get back to you with the results
put it in dfu mode and restored it to 4.1, got the 1004 error at the end of the restore but now i'm stuck on dfu mode. Any ideas how to get out? tinyumbrella wont recognise the device as connected, tried holding home and power button but still dead..
