That's your problem, & why you got that error. The only way to get any iPhone officially unlocked, is to get the carrier the phone is locked to to authorize such. There is no other way to get an iPhone officially unlocked.
Get this "person" to fix things for you, as they are the one that hacked your phone.
Good luck.

Error while activating iPhone 3GS
Hi,
I restored my iPhone to factory settings. Now while I am trying to activate the iPhone it is giving me the following error: "
We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.
Please try again later, or contact customer care."
Please could anybody help me to resolve this error. I am using iPhone 3GS and it is an unlocked version. I just unlcoked it few days back and wanted it to restore and activate again.qwer123 wrote:

I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to 6.1.3 and am unable to activate it.
It doesnt detect my sim card (Indian Sim Card) and its not possible to activite it using wifi because it gives an error always.
Kindly help.I upgraded my phone to 6.1.3 from 4.1 which was jail broken earlier.
I succesfully upgraded it to 6.1.3 but now i cant go past the activation screen because it doesnt detect my sim card so activating it via itunes is not possible because itunes says " there is no sim card , kindly disconnect your iphone and insert sim " and wifi doesnt work either. -

I cant active iPhone 3GS to iOS 5
Hey!
I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5. All went well, then at the end, it asks me a few set ups (like language, Location, and WiFi settings).
After that, it attempts to activate, and fails, giving me the following error in iTunes: "There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone you are attempting to activate."
Problem is, there IS a SIM card in the phone, I tried taking it out, and putting it back in, tried with another SIM, tried the SIM in another phone, worked fine, just not the iPhone1!
I would appreciate any help!hi i had the same problem just wanted to know if you av heard anything

WHAT is your problem?
To activate it, you insert your SIM, turn it on, and follow the prompts on the screen. If you're having trouble, you need to tell us what is wrong. -
Bypassing Activation iPhone 3Gs
Ok, I have a unique situation and no one else seems to have ever had this problem. I currently have a iPhone 4s through Verizon. I had an iPhone 3Gs with AT&T up until the 4s came out. I just pulled my 3Gs out of my closet the other day and wanted to get some stuff off of it for nostalgic reasons but I ran into a wall. It wants to activate again. Well, considering I no longer have AT&T service there is no way to activate it. I've tried bypassing the activation screen multiple ways with no luck. I don't need to restore the phone for use, I just want what's on it, so I don't need advice on restoring it. I have no backup of the phone either. Just wondering if there is anyway around the activation block. I could see all the information just fine when I charged the phone the other day, but as soon as I went to go back it up with iTunes it tried to activate itself and that's where I am stuck. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!
Additional info:
(If anyone really wants to know, my real issue is that I want to get the text messages off my old phone. The only way I've found to do thit is with a few different programs, the one I'm using is Decipher TextMessage. What the program requires to see the text messages, however, is an iTunes mobilesync backup. I cannot backup the phone if it is stuck in this activation limbo, unfortunately. There's gotta be a way. Thanks again.)Actually you should be able to use that sim if it was the one that was used to activate it originally (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3406). Perhaps it's defective. Once activated you can use it as an iPod Touch (as well as backing it up). BTW, there are 3rd party programs that will transfer data from the phone directly, rather than extracting from backup, such as Touch Copy (pc or mac) and PhoneView (mac). Not sure if they will work if the phone is deactivated but you could contact them and ask in case you can't get it to activate.
