this is a date/time error. Join your WLan with the iPhone or manually set the date/time. Remove the sim card and put it back into the phone. Now you can enter the sim-code.

Put another persons SIM card in your slot, wait 2-3 minutes, have someone dial the phone number of the SIM card you placed in your phone, pick up when it rings and let it sit idle for about a minute before hanging up...your phone should recognize that card and then you can remove it. Put your card back into the phone, if your phone doesn't recognize the card, your SIM card is damaged most likely, call your service provider, they can check it over the phone ;). Mine was a bad SIM card.
