Can't activate after restore. Know for a fact it wasn't jailbroken. Help?

I backed up my phone, deleted all the content and reset it. Now I'm unable to activate it. I've been trying for several hours so I don't think it's because the server is down.  From what I've read this happens when a phone is jailbroken.  I'm the only owner of this phone and I know it's never been jailbroken. Is there anything else that could cause this? How can I fix this?

I kept getting the "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable" message.  I tried activating over my WiFi at home and with iTunes on two separate computers. None of it worked, so I went to AT&T. I tried activating it over the WiFi at AT&T and we tried it with a different SIM card.  I've tried restoring it using iTunes. None of it has worked.

  • IPhone 4s can't activate after restore

    I have an iPhone 4s. The software started acting a little buggy so I opted to do a system restore. After I did, I can't activate my phone. I don't have service with a carrier and use the phone primarily on wifi, and I need to get it working ASAP.

    It's because you were on the iOS 6 beta, which just expired. You'll need to get the final 6.0 release from the developer iOS portal here and install it manually.

    KiltedTim,
    Are you saying that if my iPhone is currently jailbroken and unlocked via Cydia and I just got it "unlocked" permanently by AT&T it would not be possible to upgrade to the latest iOS and use non-AT&T SIM card?
    Basically, I just go my iPhone unlocked by ATT and it is troublesome all the times to go through the UltraSn0w process to unlock the phone after jailbreaking it.
    Can I just now go ahead and restore my iPhone to the latest iOS and not worry about jailbreaking it/unlocking it since now AT&T has unlocked it permanently and use it with any other GSM network?
    Please advise... and thank you for your help in advance

  • How can I activate the transfer rules for the ODS updating a data target.

    We are on BW 3.5 and I'm loading data into the 0FIGL_O10 ODS  and then uploading the data into the cube 0FIGL_C10. The data loads just fine to the ODS but when I try to <u><b>'update the data target'</b></u> I get a date & time stamp' error on the info-package transfer rules.
    I then Replicate the datasource 80FIGL_O01.
    I must then <u><b>'activate' the transfer rules</b></u>.
    However I cannot get the transfer rules for 80FIGL_O10 in CHANGE MODE to activate them.
    How can I activate the transfer rules for the ODS updating a data target.
    The error text is as follows:
    DataSource 80FIGL_O10 has to be replicated (time stamp, see long text)
    Message no. R3016
    Diagnosis
    DataSource 80FIGL_O10 does not have the same status as the source system in the Business Information Warehouse.
    The time stamp in the source system is 02/15/2007 10:42:33.
    The time stamp in the BW system is 11/07/2006 13:11:54.
    System response
    The load process has been terminated.
    <b>Procedure
    Copy the DataSource again and then activate the transfer rules that belong to it. You have to activate the transfer rules in every case, even if they are still active after the DataSource has been copied.</b>
    Thanks for your assistance.

  • Iphone 3gs will not activate after restore and update

    my sons iphone 3gs will not activate after restore and ios update.
    phone keeps saying no service but worked fine before restore and update any ideas ? thanks

    Sorry. The jailbreak is undoubtedly the root cause of your problem.
    It is not always possible to repair the damage done by jailbreaking.
    Try searching google for an answer, but be prepared to just buy a new phone.

  • Can't activate after latest iPad upgrade. Advises me to go to iTunes but it won't get off the error screen.

    Can't activate after latest iPad upgrade. Error message advises me to go to iTunes but it won't get off the error screen.

    I am the original owner of an ipad and it woke it yesterday requiring me to activate it using the original apple id used to set it up.
    It will not accept my apple id and password.
    It does not show up in my icloud under devices.
    I have tried hard restart (home + power) and itunes recovery. 
    I am out of ideas and have not found anything for original owners (as opposed to someone who bought it from someone else).  I did see some posts from last year where a few people had the same problem and took it back to apple and got a refurbished unit given to them since customer service and engineering couldn't fix it.  I was wondering if this was related to the recent ios8 upgrade. Anybody else have ideas or same problem before I hike down to the apple store for mercy?

    Hi, I also get the message "itunes could not restore the iphone because the password was incorrect" though I am never prompted to enter a password anywhere! Nor was the backup password encrypted to begin with! Really strange, any pointers will be greatly appriciated!

  • Where can I find a restore disc for a PowerBook G4?

    Where can I find a restore disc for a PowerBook G4?

    The detailed problem is that I had used the computer for a long time without turning off.  I wanted to give it to someone else so I needed to clean the data off. Before deleting anything I switched off then on and the HD seemed to have developed a fault as the start up routine began then when the Hd started the computer crashed and restarted at the begining with the startup routine and I have not been able to go further than this.  I changed the HD for an old one that I had replaced previously which had the same software system, Leopard.  This worked perfectly but on switching off then on behaved as the other had. 
    I figured that if I could start with the restore disc I could clean the HD or at least investigate it.  Hence the need for a restore disc.
    Would this work or is there something in the logic board that is upsetting the HD and what ever I do will not cure the problem.
    Any thoughts??
