Iphone 3gs, 16GB, 3.1.3, bb 05.12.01, new bootroom 359.3.2

First post and kind of a long story,
I got it from a previous AT&T costumer, used but in working condition.
Since I received it with a deactivated SIM card, no service showed on left upper corner.
Also, the screen was cracked so I took it to a repair shop and had them replaced the screen and also the rear housing.
Then I had them jailbreak it (used Spirit) and unlocked with Ultrasnow (from previous reading I thought this model couldn't be Jailbroken, I guess I was mistaken)
Installed an active SIM card (tmobile) right after and the No SIM Installed message started appearing.

Another thing I noticed was that everytime I tried to open Cydia I'd get a message saying,

Error:Refreshing Data,

Failed to fetch
http://ispaziorepository.com/./Packages.gz Cached Failure
Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Well, once a click okay, the message goes away.
Could this have anything to do with the iphone showing the No SIM message?

I admit I am a complete noob on this matters. I have been checking the web though trying to find something related to this and see if can be easily fixed.
The guy that worked on the iphone thinks that the SIM card reader might be (became) damaged while switching the back housing. He has offered to repair it at no charge. But just before he goes breaking and soldering I wanted to make sure it wasn't something else.

Can anybody help me out?
I hope I made sense. English is not my first language.
I checked this forum before posting but couldn't find nothing related.
Any help will be greatly apreciated.
Thanks.
