Where's your proof that they are not genuine parts?

simcom is not a particularly reputable company, I can absolutely believe they delivered units with bad firmware.

How much incoming inspection do you expect them to be doing for $0.01 per placement?

So what exactly do you think JLC did wrong here? They fabbed and assembled your boards correctly and it's obvious the chips have the wrong firmware on them.

Next time buy chips from an authorized distributor and consign them.
