A SIM is not "locked to a phone" -- the phone is locked to use only SIMs for a specific network. In other words, any SIM will work in any unlocked phone. A locked phone will work with any SIM from the network it is locked to. Changing the IMEI (which is rumoured to be possible, but I am not sure) wouldn't make any difference -- if the phone is unlocked, you can already use any SIM in it.
The IMEI is a number used to identify a mobile phone on a network. When a stolen phone is reported, its IMEI is sent around, and it is blocked from connecting to networks worldwide. Therefore, the phone is almost useless, discouraging crime. This phone has a 'bad' IMEI. A 'good' IMEI is not barred from networks, and will work correctly in this sense.

Because, your phone is either locked, broken or something wrong with its IMEI (to check put in code *#06#) or you just don't have any credit.
Type IMEI [your 15 digit IMEI number] and send it to 53232 or 57886. For example IMEI 359223015426526 to 53232 . You will receive a message with all available details from the service provider.
No Imei code is lock onto the phone itself. Every phone has a unique Imei code when it is manufactured.
