Iphone 3GS unlock problem

Device: Iphone 3GS 32GB white
Firmware: 3.1.3
Jailbreak tool if used: SPIRIT
Unlock tool if used: Ultrasn0w
Computer OS: Windows 7

What my problem is:

My Iphone is locked on orange UK network. I just twice restore it to 3.1.3 and used spirit to jailbreak and used Ultrasn0w to unlock Iphone but the problem is the same.

Problem is when I use orange sim, all the signal bars are ok and I can make call and etc but when I insert any other sim, name of the carrier appears but no signal bar and as soon as I hit the call button it says failed call. But interestingly I can use carrier internet.

I made sure to disable 3G before using Ultrasn0w to unlock and I have tried vice versa as well.

Any idea what I am missing?
Dell Studio 1555

My iPhone 3Gs is officially unlocked by 02 UK and everytime I insert another sim it does the same as above. But after say 3 minutes I get a signal and everything is ok. Have you tried waiting.
Current Apple Devices:
iPhone 4s | 32GB | 6.1.1 | Untethered JB | Officially Unlocked
iPad Mini - WiFI | 16GB | 6.1.2 | Untethered JB

Previous Apple Devices:
iPhone 3Gs (Old Bootrom) | 32GB | 5.0 | Jailbroken | Officially Unlocked (Sold)

I have paid for my iPhone so I will jailbreak it if Apple like it or not.
