HT4972 how to activate iphone 3gs after restoring?
i restored my phone but its not activating now what to do now
Either you do not have a SIM installed in the phone, in which case you need to put a SIM in it, or the phone was hacked to unlock it. If that's the case, it will not activate until and unless the carrier it is locked to authorized unlocking it.

I am currently in india and using one Indian SIM card to activate it.
Itunes is giving one message - There is no SIM card inserted in iphone.
Do i need to use any AT&T SIM card only yo activate iphone?Ya, this iphone was working prior to unlocking with indian SIM Card. I tried 2-3 different SIM Card.

Iphone 3gs after restore cant activated.. phone is unlock..
iphone 3gs after restore cant activated.. phone is unlock..
Hello skyway9992,
It sounds like you cannot activate your iPhone 3GS after restoring it. I found an article that has steps for troubleshooting an activation issue on an iPhone.
iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424
I have included the steps from that article here:
Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to Wi-Fi if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
Best,

My iPhone 3gs after restoration is not being activated ... can you help?
my iPhone 3gs after restoration is not being activated ... can you help?
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=>About=>Carrier? -

HT201210 how to activate iphone 4 after updating software to IOS 6?
how to activate iphone 4 after updating software to IOS 6?
please help..Your friend did an unofficial unlock and it has now locked back to the original cell carrier. You need to call AppleCare, give them the model and serial number of the iPhone and find out which cell carrier it is locked to. Then contact that cell carrier and see what the process is to officially unlock the iPhone and if you qualify.
