My iPhone5s couldn't activate after i'd erased all my settings

I got my iPhone5s 2months ago. This was happened last 2wks, i've found out that my phone wasn't able to received incoming text and call and i look for my Network which is (AT&T) it says "Searching.." so i've told this issue to my sister and we called technical support for at&t that my network is fine etc. So what he did is troubleshoot my phone while my phone is off and when i turn it on it started to connect to my network again. So last friday, when i woke up my phone couldn't connect to my Network again so i've told this issue again with my sister and try to fixed it again this issue, she tried to reset my network and troubleshoot it again nothing happened so she asked me to pull it out my sim card so we did what she'd told me and still my phone couldn't connect to my Network. So she suggest that we should go to at&t store and change my sim card, then we went to at&t store to get my new sim card. And nothing happened my phone still couldn't connect to my phone, the sales rep told us to go to apple store and change my phone cos they've had the same problem before about my issues.So here's my problem i reset my network settings still nothing happened, and tried to erase all my settings after i've done that my phone says that "Your iphone couldn't be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes."

Hi, try to put your iPhone into recovery mode and do the restore again. Here are the steps:
After then, connect your iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes. Click Recovery iPhone and then follow the prompts it tells you to do.

    I gave my ipad 2 to my brother last month. After that he erased all content and settings, sign in with his apple id. The next day until now, I found out that I can not udpate my apps both on my iPhone and iPad Air. I had create new apple id, change my password, delete the icloud acc. But still I can not update my apps. I have many of red notifications on iPhone and iPad Air. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

    1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
    2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
    Is your iPad working?

    Something has gone wrong, as this should have happened almost instantaneously. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

  • After erasing all data & settings, cannot connect to wi-fi

    To try to make a long story, short, I was having trouble connecting to my home network with my iPod.  It was previously owned, so I figured since I'd be losing everything with the first sync, I decided to perform a full erase of data and settings.  After some initial trouble with error messages, when I first tried to connect to iTunes, the iPod is finally working...but I still cannot connect to my home network.  I even went as far as to open my router control panel and reset the password, then set up a  new connection on the iPod, even though my home network is showing in the list, wi-fi is turned on and ask to join is turned on.  By default, my router security is set to WPA2, but even after I turned security off, it still won't let me join.  I have other devices connected, and working fine, even after the password change.  I'm truly stumped, here....

    Did you make sure your router/modem are set up and configured with the settings specified in the second article I linked above.
    Have you tried shortening the password/key to the network? 
    After you turned of all the encryption settings, did you reset the network settings again then try to reconnect?
    It would really help to try and connect this device to another working Wi-Fi network to help determine if it's an iPod issue or a router/modem issue.
    Is the router/modem using the 2.4 or 5 GHz band? Or both?
    What is the brand and model of your router/modem?

  • HT201274 my phone will not active  after i erase all content and settings

    my iphone will not activate after  i have erase all content and settings

    Activation issues are typically the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.  If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

    It sounds a lot like your phone was jailbroken or hacked to unlock it before you updated.
    Was it?

    Where did you get the phone? If it was previously locked to a carrier and was hacked/jailbroken to use it on a different carrier, updating the phone has re-locked it to the original carrier. ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize and unlock.

  • HT201263 my iPhone5 still couldn't activate. Even try like apple activation troubleshoot

    My iPhone5 still couldn't activate.
    Even I try like apple activation troubleshoot.
    Same message as activation server is temporarily unavaiable.
    Whaht is wrong APPLE?

    Howdy syafiqahmad,
    If your iMessage and FaceTime still hasn't activated by now, I would recommend you use this specific section of the following article as long as you verify you've done all the other troubleshooting from it for this issue:
    If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime 
    If you're using an iPhone, contact your carrier to make sure that you can receive SMS messages.
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

    If you have a data only plan for the iPad with your carrier, if no change after powering your iPad off and on you will need to contact your carrier.

  • Can't activate after latest iPad upgrade. Advises me to go to iTunes but it won't get off the error screen.

    Can't activate after latest iPad upgrade. Error message advises me to go to iTunes but it won't get off the error screen.

    I am the original owner of an ipad and it woke it yesterday requiring me to activate it using the original apple id used to set it up.
    It will not accept my apple id and password.
    It does not show up in my icloud under devices.
    I have tried hard restart (home + power) and itunes recovery. 
    I am out of ideas and have not found anything for original owners (as opposed to someone who bought it from someone else).  I did see some posts from last year where a few people had the same problem and took it back to apple and got a refurbished unit given to them since customer service and engineering couldn't fix it.  I was wondering if this was related to the recent ios8 upgrade. Anybody else have ideas or same problem before I hike down to the apple store for mercy?

  • HT4623 couldn't activate

    after updating to io6, I couldn't activate iphone 3gs

    The message you got is often the message that appears when a phone ahs been jailbroken and an attempt is made to upgrade.  Are there any unusual files on you phone or strange apps?  You have not said how you got iOS 6.1.2 rather than the latest iOS 6.1.3

  • HT201441 i cant get my phone to activate after ios update

    hello i have an iphone that wont activate after i resored and updated to ios 7

    If it's locked with activation lock, you'll have to have the previous owner remove it from their account as explained in the article you were reading (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515).
