HT4623 Can not activate iPhone 3GS after upgrade to 6.1
I was happily using my iPhone 3GS v4.1 till my son upgraded to IOS 6.1. Now it shows "could not activate iPhone". Please help
Was the phone hacked or jailbroken to use it with a different carrier than the one it was locked to? If it was then it is again locked to that carrier, and there is nothing you can do about it that can be discussed in an Apple hosted forum.

I can,t activate iphone 3gs after upgrade 6.1.2
I can,t activate my iphone 3gs after upgrade 6.1.2.Now what i can 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.
Where did you acquire this iPhone?
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=>Carrier? -
vechr good guys please tell me I can not activate iphone 3gs unlock after the official sees no sim card
Disable your antivirus and firewall.
If that doesn't fix it either the phone was jailbroken or hacked, or the computer you are using was used to hack or jailbreak some other iDevice. -

Has your iPhone been jailbroken or modified to work with other
than the original wireless provider?
Were you running one of the beta versions of iOS 7? -

Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.
If this is the case, no support can be provided here. -
how can i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6? it could not activate....
If your phone was previously hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's re-locked to the original carrier. The phone will now activate and operate only with that original carrier.

Why can't i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading it to ios 6?
why can't i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading it to ios 6?
It says,
''There is no sim card installed in the iphone you are attempting to activate''
Thanks for your help in advance!
Kayl07There are several common causes for this problem:
Your security software (Antivirus, firewall, router settings) is blocking access to gs.apple.com, Apple's activation servers. Try temporarily disabling your security applications on your computer.
You have a redirect in your hosts file that defines a different IP address for gs.apple.com. you must delete all references to gs.apple.com from your hosts file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts, or /etc/hosts on a Mac)
Your phone is jailbroken or otherwise hacked. -

I cant activate my iphone 3gs after upgrade to 5.1.1
i cant activate my iphone 3gs after upgrade to 5.1.1
I am experiencing the same issue and could use some advice:
Yesterday I plugged my Iphone 3GS into my computer and I selected in Itunes to update to the latest IOS 5.1.1.
Before I did this the iphone worked correctly, and after I did this it will not let me access the apps at all. I went to the Apple store and the rep told me I needed to have a working AT&T sim installed in it to complete the upgrade. I went to the AT&T store and had them put one of their working sim card in and it would not work. The AT&T rep said he has seen several people with Iphone 3GS who updated to the latest IOS 5.1.1 whos phones will not recognize the sim card and thus will not let you get to the apps.
Does anyone know how to correct this problem? -
