What do I do if the Iphone 4 has an "Activation Error"

My apple Iphone 4 has been restored because I got it as a replacement phone gift and I tried to restore the hardware but it keeps saying " Activation request could not be completed. If the problem persists, please contact the customer care" and no warranty left.. What should I do... Reply As soon As Possible.

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.
Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?
Unauthorized modification of iOS

    That sounds like an issue with the sunglasses and possible polarization...there is nothing that you can do to offset that on the iPhone itself.

    Restore iPhone with current iTunes on computer. See if better. If still problem, make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution. Of if easier for you, take receipt and iPhone, box and everything and return to where you bought it.

  • What is "other" capacity in the iPhone?

    What is "other" capacity in the iPhone? I have 2.6 BG. Is there a way to remove it?

    A large "other" indicates corrupt files.  A restore should resolve.
    Typically it is  a GB or less.

    What does this mean as the iphone will not connect?

    It means your phone was hacked to unlock it and has now been bricked. Buy a new phone.

  • What do you think about the iPhone 4 for my 11 year old daughter

    What do you think about the iPhone 4 for my 11 year old daughter

    It should be a good choice. I recently got the 5C which typically is $99 with supported carriers. Verizon, AT&T, Sprint provide attractive pricing with a two year contract or it you are adding a line to your current service. I have several friends using the 4S, and they have been very pleased with them.

  • What can Apple do if my Iphone 5s has dust in its camera? The camera is very bad and can't take any good pictures. Can Apple do anything or give me a replacement phone if I go to the Store?

    You can make a Genius Bar appointment to have the device looked at. If the device is still under warranty and they identify a problem, then Apple makes the final decision as to a replacement. If the device is out of warranty and they identify a problem, you would be offered the opportunity to purchase an out of warranty replacement at a discounted price.

  • HT1386 My husband and I both upgraded from the 3 to the iPhone 4.  When activating them, it copied all of my stuff to my new phone.  Then we did my husbands....and he got all of my stuff too!  Instead of what was on his old iphone 3. Help. Please.

    My husband and I upgraded from the iPhone 3 to the iPhone 4.  I activated mine and all was good.  I activiated his and while syncing....instead of transfering his contacts, apps and ect.  All of my contacts, apps and ect. were loaded on his phone as well.  How do I change this.  Please help.  Thank you!

    At this point it would be best to restore both phones. Do backups of both old phones, and restore new phones from those backups. (make you choose the correct backup for each phone or you'll back were you started).
    You can use multiple devices with the same computer, and even the same itunes library. Howevever, it may be easier just to set up seperate user accounts on the computer for the future.

  • Two phones ordered, only one shipped. The iPhone 6 has shipped with tracking number and charge to my card. iPhone 6 Plus has no information available, no one at CS can tell me if this is normal, if it is delayed, any info appreciated.

    I placed an upgrade order for two phones, an iPhone 6 and 6plus.
    I was in the Verizon shopping cart at 11:55 and checked out by 12:01 AM pacific time.
    I do have my email confirmation for both phones with ship date 9/19
    The iPhone 6 has shipped with tracking number and the charge to my card came through for the price of this phone.
    There is no other information available - nothing on the status of the 6 Plus. Customer service doesn't know if this is normal or if my order went through, its really bad.
    Any further information would be much appreciated.

    I was just told by a Verizon sales rep that, when her team got in, when she checked the system at 3:03 (midnight+ 3 minutes)  all 6Plus had a back order date of October, and now its going into November even though the pre-order system was showing 9/19 - that all verizon iphone 6 plus had an instant sell out.
    She had no additional information on my iPhone 6 plus, not even if there was a chance for it to ship out, when the back order date would be - no further information.
    (A different rep I talked to said all iphone 6 plus pre orders had a ship date of October, all of them - I asked what Verizon is going to do when they advertised iphone 6 plus for 9/19 delivery and your telling me they never had any available - at this point he transferred me... *****)

  • Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.

    Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
    All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
    Please help.

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

  • Iphone 3G recovery mode; the iPhone cannot be recovered: unknow error 1604

    Hi
    I was recovering my iPhone 3G at iTunes after creating a back-up.
    When I wanted to recover (and update to OS 3.1.3. from 3.1.2) iTunes is turning the iPhone into recovery mode, but after a few minutes the phone is keeping getting the message
    the iPhone cannot be recovered: unknow error 1604
    There is no futher information about this error. So now I have a non working iPhone
    Please help me, what to do
    Thanx

  • HT201469 If the iPhone 5s has touch ID, then why can't it use Apple Pay to make in-app purchases?

    They came out with a new iPad mini, and the only difference with the old mini and the new mini is that it has touch ID so that you can make in-app purchases. That's just about the only difference.
    Ok, well, the iPhone 5s has touch ID already. Why can't it be used to make in-app purchases?

    Yes, actually I did. There's no Apple Pay option.
    But there's more to it than that. If you look at the Apple Pay section of Apple's website, it specifically says that Apple pay will only work with the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, and Apple Watch for making in-store purchases (you know, actual stores), and with iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 for making in-app purchases.
    So Apple's website specifically says that Apple Pay will not work for iPhone 5s for making in-app purchases.
    My question is, why? What technology is it lacking?
    I understand that iPhone 5s can't do in-store purchases since it doesn't have NFC. But in-app? Why not? It has touch ID.
