my iphon 5 said "only compatible sim cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iphone. please insert the sim card that came with ur phone or visit a supported carrier's store to receive a replacement sim card" what do i do??? i leave in diferent country now!!!???(((
in many countries to make phones seem less expensive
carriers pay most of the phones price for the customer
but this come at the cost of the phone only being able to work
with the carrier this is called a sim lock
the only people who can remove a sim lock is the carrier which
the phone is sim locked to they been doing it like that for at least 20 years -

I bought an iPhone 5 at full retail price from an AT&T store. I requested the phone to be unlocked through their unlock portal. The AT&T unlock system asked for the IMEI number, a copy of my receipt showing that I bougth the phone at "No Commitment" price. A few hours later I received a message from AT&T stating that the unlock request was approved. I then followed the instructions to back up the phone and restore it through Itunes. The phone activates normally with the AT&T SIM card. But when I insert my VODAFONE SIM I get the massage "THE SIM CARD... etc.
I tried again to back up & restore the phone 3 or 4 times, no success. I have also allowed 24 hours for the unlock process to complete. Still no luck.
I have checked again on the AT&T Unlock Status portal and it shows "Unlock approved".
Where is the issue here? Do I have to call Apple or return the phone to AT&T and get the unlocked phone through the Apple Store?
Thanks for any help on this. -

Only compatible SIM cards from a supported Carrier may be used
to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your
iPhone or visit a supported Carrier's store to receive a
replacement SIM card.It appears that you have an iPhone that is locked to a carrier other than the one you were using. Now that you have tried to update the iOS, it has relocked. That is what happens if you are using a phone that has been hacked to unlock. You have also forfeited support from Apple and from this forum.

I did not know what to do??Follow this article: iPhone: Troubleshooting No Service or No SIM
Symptoms
In certain situations, iPhone may present one of the following symptoms:
"Invalid SIM" or "No SIM Card installed" alert appears intermittently.
Status bar displays "No SIM" when a SIM card is installed.
Resolution
If you encounter any of the above symptoms on your iPhone, try these steps to attempt to resolve the issue:
Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
Restore the iPhone.
If you still are unable to resolve this issue, contact Apple support for further assistance. -
Hi, My iphone Model A1387 EMC 2430 FCC ID:BCG-E2430A IC:579C-E2430A and i am unable to activate my iPhone shows SIM Not Valid and Only compatible SIM cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone.or visit a supported career 's store to receive a replacement sim card.
how can i solve this?? please let me know.
thank you.Sounds like the iPhone is locked to the original Carrier
and you are trying to use a sim from another carrier
and only that original carrier can unlock the iPhone -
what do i do when it will not take my SIM card anymore and i can not downgrade my phone? i already got a new SIM card but it still says its not compatible! what can i do?
This means that your phone was hacked to be unlocked. Updating it restored the phone to Apple specs and re-locked to the original carrier.
You will need to find out who the original carrier is and see if you qualify for unlocking. -
im trying to unlock my orange phone to tesco mobile, i phoned orange n they sent a set of instructions, following the instructions it comes up with this error "the sim card doesnt seem to be supported, please contact your carrier" please help
How long ago did you contact them regarding the unlock? It takes time.... time as in days or weeks, not hours.

I restored my I phone 4 using Itunes, after that I can't access the icon any more I only got a message that says " ( Sim not Valid.) Only compatible SIM cards from supported carrier may be used to activate iphone. I need some proffesional help. Thanks
"We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care, Sim not vaild?"
99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked. -

It seems that you have a hacked iphone that has been locked back to the rightful carrier when you updated, as it should.
The only place that can legally/legitimately unlock an iphone is the carrier to which it is locked.

Neither. Apple can not unlock your phone. T-Mobile can not unlock your phone. ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. Contact them and find out if you (and the phone) qualify for unlocking. -
Please insert the SIM card that came with your iphone or visit a supported carriers store
please insert the SIM card that came with your iphone or visit a supported carriers store to recive a replacement SIM card
Yes and exactly what is your question here?
Do what is tells you to do and insert the SIM card that came with your phone or if you are having problems, contact your phone comapny/carrier for help.
With no proper quesion and no further information, how on earth do you expect anyone to be able to help you? -
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked.
what does it mean?Have a look in Settings>Carrier
Again YOU cannot unlock it - only the original carrier can do it -
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked.Sounds like you are trying to use an iPhone that is locked to a particular
wireless carrier with the sim from another wireless carrier. Contact the wireless
provider that the iPhone is locked to and ask if they offer unlocking and if
you qualify. Only the wireless carrier that the iPhone is locked to can unlock
it. -
Dear ,
I buied I phone from USA and I sent to Iraq to use it there but when used it I get this message :
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier
so I need support to resolve this problem and procedure and how I can iPhone be unlocked.
