 > 1. can these O2 sim cards register to GSM network from other phone
 normally?

 Sorry - I should have stated that all these cards work fine in other (2G)
 phones, including my
 Nokia 6230i and my wife's Motorola.

 cards all failed? and > get the same error code?

 all the cards behave in the same manner, I'm guessing it's a problem with
 the modem firmware?
 It sounds a lot like #666 (except for 2G SIMs). All the SIMs I have look
 like the not working
 SIM labelled "O2 Germany" on:
 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FreeRunner_unable_to_work_with_3G_SIM_cards
 (i.e. the side "terminals" on the chip are separated by more than just a
 thin line which
 is what the working SIM card I have (Vodaphone UK) looks like.

 Here is the output from the AT Commands you requested:

 RSTR=`+CGMR: "HW: GTA02BV5, GSM:
