i want solution to activate my updated iphone 3gs
Do you have a Vodafone service account? Or did you buy this phone from someone else? If the latter then see: Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner’s account.

please help me < when update my i phone 3G < i finish update but face problem , appear me msg There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone You ar attempting to activate. Please disconnect
Sounds like your phone was hacked to use with your carrier. Updating it has relocked the phone to it's original carrier. You will not get the phone working again without a SIM from the original carrier.

It also appears that your phone may have been Hacked and / or Jailbroken...

You cannot active a phone if it does not have a SIM card in it. Period. End of discussion.
If you get this error and it has a SIM card in the phone then either the SIM card is defective or the phone is defective. Get a new SIM card and try again. If the problem occurs with the new SIM card the phone needs to be repaired. -

I have tried to update my 3GS phone and now it longer works as it comes up with message there is no sim card installed in the phone. Can anyone help please as I am no where near technical support as I am working as volunteer in remote Asian country
Hi Allan,
Thanks for asking, I knew I had forgotten to mention something. The phone was indeed unofficially unlocked, since there were no apple stores or even premium resellers in the region I lived in during the given procedure had to be done.
I understand this could be a further complication, especially the fact the home button does not work. However, I was wondering if there would be a possibility to use a third-party application instead of iTunes to restore the iPhone? IF someone does know of such an application, I could easily solve further problems myself. Basically, the main issue here is my lack of ability to enter DFU mode. -
trying to active my old iPhone 3gs. it showing that activation server is temporary unavailable and on the iTunes showing that there is no sim card installed in the iPhone you are attempting to activate. I unlocked my phone then i upgrade it, after that this happen. i tried with other sim same message come again and again.if any body know solution let me know. thanks
Was the SIM card activated on another phone? I assume this is an ATT style trying to use on T-Mobile? Was the SIM installed correctly? Is the carrier (like T-Mobile) operating IOS 6 devices yet?
If the SIM is a valid SIM from say T-Mobile, you may want to contact them for assistance activating the SIM card.
Activation and SIM issues typically point to the carrier. And if this was a CDMA phone say working with verizon, it will NOT work for ATT or T-Mobile as they use different electronics on the 3GS. The SIM slot is for international use only. -
my iphone is displaying "there is no sim card installed in the iphone you are attempting to activate" wn i connect it to itunes,bcoz i hv installed ios5.0.1 for my iphone 3g.can you tel me how to solve dis problem?
I’m having the same issue.
My phone indeed has no SIM card. I kept the 3GS after upgrading to an iPhone 4 and I was simply using it as an iPod Touch.
As far as I had been told, I was perfectly OK to do that and it had been going fro update to update without any issue up to now.
The problem is that iOS 5 requires a new activation, and that this model cannot be activated with a valid SIM. Obivously, I’m not going to take a new line with AT&T ad pay $xxx every month just to be able to activate my previous phone.
I contacted AT&T but they had no clue how to get out of the problem and said it was in Apple’s hands anyway.
I tried restoring 4.3.5 on the phone, but so far I haven’t been successful :-\
I’m open to any suggestion

I got my iPhone 4 unlocked from AT&T but whenever i try to connect my phone to iTunes for restoring, iTunes say me "there is no sim card installed in the iphone you are attempting to activate."
sorry. you cannot discuss and find solution about the jailbroken phones in this forum.

THERE IS NO SIM CARD INSTALLED IN THE iPHONE YOU ARE ATTEMPTING TO ACTIVATE - and there is? Has anyone suffered this and what to do? Thanks
Possible causes:
1) Improper SIM card placement.
2) Faulty SIM card.
3) "No service" area of the cellular network.
4) Unsupported carrier.
5) Network locked iPhone. Trying to a activate a locked iPhone on a different cellular network. (Other than to which it is originally locked to).
6) The computer doesn't have an internet access on which you are trying to activate your iPhone using iTunes.
7) Apple server busy (rare). -
