how do i activate iphone without att sim card

Activating an iPhone requires a compatible SIM card. The SIM card does not need to be activated or have time on it, just from the carrier that the phone is locked to.

    Sorry, you can't. If your phone is carrier locked, you will need a sim card from that carrier, to activate it.

  • Can I activate my iPhone without the original sim?

    I bought an iPhone 4 form the USA, which was not activated. When I plug it into iTunes, I have a message along the lines of 'Not Original Sim, please insert original...'
    Well, I was never given and therefore don't have the original sim.
    However, I think that the iPhone was on the AT&T network, but I am not 100% sure.
    I have also recently updated, probably to iOS 6, but I am again not totally sure.
    Will any AT&T sim card work to activate the phone?
    And, is there any other way to activate the iPhone, other that having the original sim?

    You need to contact AT&T about this and get a micro sim card from them for your phone. 
    You would have updated to iOS6 as that is the latest upgrade - no others are available.
    Contact AT&T or go into one of their stores to find out.

    Get a sim card from the carrier your phone is locked to. If you don't know what carrier that is, you'll have to call AppleCare to find out.

  • HT201407 Can I active my IPhone without inserting a Sim Card? Just to have access to wify, câmera , etc

    If a GSM iPhone, sorry, no. All GSM iPhones require a sim card in order to activate them. No sim card, no activation.

  • Can I sign up for a month of data with Verizon without auto renewal and how long can I go without using my sim card before it is deactivated?

    When I checked out Verizon's data plans online, the only option I saw that did not involve automatic renewals was the option to pay $5 for a day of 300 MB. The other options (e.g., $20/month for 1GB) all appeared to involve automatic renewals every month unless I go in and cancel the plan. However, during a chat, a Verizon representative told me that auto renewal of the prepaid plans is an option that can be avoided, it just isn't listed in the online information. Has anyone found a way to only sign up for one month of data without having to cancel the next payment?
    Also, when I looked online at a site that compared data plans, it stated that one needed to use the Verizon network every 4 months or else the sim card would be permanently deactivated. But in a couple of online discussions, the limit was listed as being 3 months. Verizon told me 6 months. Does anyone know which is currently correct?
    Finally, I have heard that if the sim card does become deactivated, Verizon tends to insist on making one buy a new one with a regular data plan and not the prepaid options.Has anyone had any experience with this?

    GeekBoy.from.Illinois thank you for replying. I tried the Verizon support forum, but before I can ask a question there I need to register, and the first step in registering is entering my mobile phone number. Since I don't have a Verizon phone, I can't register and, therefore, can't ask any questions. I did look through previous questions and answers, but it only confirmed that Verizon employees do not give out consistently correct information. I guess I will try talking or chatting with two of three more of them and hope that whatever the majority answers are will be the correct ones.
