Iphone 4 Activation Problems?
I just got a iphone today from my uncle that came visiting and he bought the iphone from the UK Today he gave it to me and it says it needs a sim. Now i'm in the US so i was thinking i go out to Walmart and just buy a micro sim and put it in the iphone. Will it work? Also what if i cut up and a sim card to make my own micro sim will that work?
Its probably locked to a uk carrier and will not work in the usa unless unlocked.
you can check online what carrier its locked to.
- Why does my iphone randomly say activation required? So the other day I was just using my iPhone 4 running IOS 6 beta and I had shut down my iPhone completely for about 2 hours and then when i turned it back on, it said "activation required and it wants me to connect to Wi-Fi to connect to apples activation servers. It will not let me get to my home screen and everytime I try to activate it it tells me to try again later. BTW, it also says no service at the top of my iPhone. And this has also happened to my iPad.
- Jailbroken iphone 4 still shows the activation screen? I jail broke to use the iPhone as an iPod & i can't restore all of my music/apps/photos to it because iTunes still says " there's no sim card in the phone you are attempting to activate" how can i get itunes to recognize the phone as 'activated'? - Thanks in advance
- IPhone update/activation The last time I updated my phone, it was to 4.2? And I just got the latest update. Unfortunately, iTunes won't "finish" the update. By that I mean the update is finished, but when I go to activate my phone again, it says the session has timed out. I've tried rebooting iTunes, my iPhone, my computer, I reinstalled iTunes, but it still says the session has timed out. Any ideas?
- Iphone says your iphone can't be activated bc the activation server is temporarily unavailable? I called the carrier i have and they said to reset my phone so i did it still just says this i can't even use my phone what do i do
