I have an inactive iPhone and I want to use the camera and games?

My Samsung I405 was reset to factory now when I turn it on the Setup Wizard says "A SIM card is needed to operate this phone" If I purchase a new SIM card and insert it will the phomne work and if so do I need to activate it or not. Help!

Added (1). The phone is from a friend and all I know is that it says Verizon, Samsung Model SCH-I405

Thats great

There will be no service, but inserting an old or new sim should work.

What is this iPhone you speak of, when you mention Samsung?
