    You didn't buy an iPhone. You bought a crappy iClone. It should still work with your carrier - at least for calling and basic texting. You should bring it in to a Vodafone shop and see if they can help you get the phone up and running.

    Hi,you do understand that that is not an iphone you bought?

    An Apple iPhone does not have dual sim support, removable batteries, to name a few.

    That aside, from the specs, your phone should work without a problem using your sim. I could only ask that you:

    1) restart the phone to see if it helps

    2) try another sim card

    3) try it again in another location

    If it doesn't work you might want to check with the person you bought it from.

    the frequency is different

    your iphone supports the frequency in china

    but you can change the Network GSM which one is fit for the frequency in australia

    find out the frequency in australia and have a try!

    good luck!
