IPhone restored. Only needs SIM card to activate?

I found an iPhone & restored it, only problem is it needs a SIM card to activate. I'm willing to buy a SIM card but I just want to know if an inactivated SIM card would work? The phone is Verizon, so if I buy a Verizon SIM card on Amazon/eBay would it work?

Yes and it will work with any sim card carrier

  • My iphone needs to be restored Arghhh! I just tried updating my iphone 4 to ios 6. I think it might have unplugged… Or something? Now itunes is saying its detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to be restored before it can be used with itunes. And the phone just shows an apple cable being plugged into itunes. Do I really have to restore it? And does that mean wiping the whole thing and losing everything? Please tell me thats not true and there's something I can do!
  • Changing from normal sim card to iPhone 4 sim card? I'm an AT&T customer with a smart phone. I'm wanting to buy an iPhone 4 but I know they take smaller sim cards than normal phones. If I buy an iPhone from an individual, can I take it to AT&T and have them give me a smaller sim card & transfer my information? Would I have to pay extra for it? Is it even possible?
