How to jailbreak my iphone when it's not activated?
My parents bought me a second hand jail-broken iphone 3gs.
it got wet so i took it to repair and they reset it and changed the battery.
when i got it back it was in the configuration screen which required me to connect it to itunes.
on itunes, i received a message saying there's no sim card in the iphone i'm trying to activate.
since it's second hand and i don't know which sim card fits it, i need to unlock it.
i tried using blackra1n, and after it entered recovery mode it just got back to the configuration screen and still won't read my sim card.
is there some software i can use to jailbreak it atm?
You don't unlock a phone by jailbreaking it you do it by getting a sim card and using the unlock code for it
Jailbreak it with redsnow and unlock with ultrasnow.
- Why is my iPhone not getting activated? I updated the iOS on my iPhone 3GS from 4.1 to 6.1 or something like that. Now when the phone started i reached start-up up to the Wi-Fi network selection screen. After that it a screen appeared telling me to wait while the iPhone is being activated.iTunes is also not showing anything. Then suddenly the iTunes screen says it can't be updated, please try again later. I have tried several times but it's not working.
- Why has my O2 iPhone 4 sim not activated yet? I traded in my blackberry for an iPhone 4 two days ago, and obviously they had to do the 'sim swap'. They told me it would take 1-24 hours to activate but it's been over two days now. I can't do it manually on the O2 website because I don't have my old phone anymore.
- Why factory unlocked iphone 4s is showing that the iphone is not activated? I bought factory unlocked iphone 4s on ebay for my sister-in-law who is in europe. And the seller assured that it is factory unlocked and will work perfectly. I have non activated sprint sim card and when i inserted it in to the iphone it showed that "the iphone is not activated.contact the carrier". What does it mean? Does it mean that the phone is not factory unlocked?
- My Iphone isn't working to an extent, says not activated? My Iphone works like normal you know, making phone calls, texts, and surfs the web and all. What isn't working is the Facetime, Imessaging, and installing profiles under the Settings. When ever i try using facetime or installing a profile it says waiting for activation and then says Iphone isn't activated? I have verizon and I went to them and they said I probably have to go to apple, any suggestions or ideas.
