How to activate my iPhone 4S without using a SIM card?

I don't know what version it is. All I know is that it's locked to Vodafone UK. I want to activate it without using a SIM somehow as I don't have one!

As Activating means linking the Phone to a SIM card - you need a SIM card.

just go and get a PAYG Vodafone SIM card
even a free one off their website (as it is a Vodafone iPhone it will be locked to Vodafone)

Setup the Wi-Fi (can be done as part of Activation), and you can activate over Wi-Fi.

  • Will using an Unofficial sim card activate iphone 4? So my iphone 4 doesn't have a data plan on it, so i'm just using it to play games and stuff. But then i had a restart loop, so i had no choice but to restore. Now i have to activate the phone, but nothing seems to work(redsnow). Can you activate an iphone 4 (6.0.1) with a sim card that doesn't have a data plan on it?
