    Something easy to try is telling the phone which provider its using. I do this by going to settings>wireless&networks>more>mobile settings. it searches and then allows me to choose the network am on.

    If this works then you might need to find the apn details for o2 and manually put them in, hopefully it might get the internet working

    If all else fails then maybe now that o2 know that its a fake phone they have blocked the sim, and trying a giffgaff sim or other provider might be an idea.
