I tried to activate the new sim card this morning and port in the old number from the virgin for my son, and I replied yes to virgin. But until now the iPhone with the new sim card still shows sos, and the account said ,

Physical simulation. I have tried everything I can. It still doesn't work. I have already sent a message to cs agent, no reply so far.

Happened to my wife when she ported over earlier this week. She got the SMS from the old carrier to confirm the port/transfer and she replied YES. We thought it was complete/done but she realized she couldn’t receive SMS or phone calls. Only iMessages (data). Found out the port didn’t actually finalize and we needed someone from the PM Porting department to re-request the transfer again. After that, we were good to go. Best to see if you can touch base with PM porting department to get it sorted

@Ethan888 Physical sim or eSIM?
try reinsert your sim card and reboot the phone once
If possible, try your sim in another phone
if still does not work, it is likely just a sim card provisioning issue, easy fix for PM support and you just need to engage them via direct message here:
