HT2188 Iphone wont activate

My iphone wont activate, it says there is no sim card inserted when there actually is. why wont it activate?

That's often symptomatic of a hacked phone. If your phone was not hacked or jail broken, try a new SIM.

  • My iphone wont activate

    For some reason my iphone wont activate and it wont take my user name or password, so i dont know what to do, can anyone help please

    That's because you can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim installed in the phone. The sim itself need not be activated, but it must be valid, & it must be present. You have no choice but to get a Vodafone sim in order to activate your phone. You can borrow one if you want, but you need to get one.

  • My iphone wont activate itself?

    can someone please help me... my iphone wont activate itself

    I fixed mine! Settings>general>cellular>cellular data. Turn cellular data off then back on. Scroll down to roaming>data roaming. Turn data roaming on. Turn voice roaming on. I messed with these 3 and it finally started searching again and activated.
    I tried all kinds of combinations prior to these as all of you have. Hope it works for your phone too. I also tried restore, DFU mode, airplane mode, reboot etc. Only the above worked.

  • HT4623 what do u do if your iphone wont activate after u update it

    what do u do if your iphone wont activate after u update it

    You contact the carrier it's locked to and see if they will unlock it for you.  Activation problems are almost always due to the fact that the phone was hacked to unlock it instead of being legitimately unlocked.
    Of course, this can also happen if you're trying to activate it without a SIM in it. You can not activate the phone without a SIM.

  • TS2811 my iphone wont activate after restoring it

    i bought an iphone 3g off a friend of mine and i signed up for itunes and i restored the phone but now it wont activate itself. What should i do?

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?
    Unauthorized modification of iOS

    Your phone appears to be locked to a carrier.
    Are you using the same carrier SIM that it originally came with? If you don't know, then ask her.
