My iPhone 4s keeps telling me there is no sim card, activation required and the screen gets stuck on the apple icon

Does anyone know how to get rid of the activation required at the top of the main menu screen? I am using a rogers sim card, the phone works and all. Its just the activation required I wanna get rid of.
View 7 Replies View RelatedMy iPhone 4s, which I've been using for 3+ months, today displayed "activation required". But when I try to activate, it says "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a few minutes. If this problem persists, contact Apple Support. Needless to say, connecting to iTunes doesn't work - "The software on the iPhone has expired and must be updated to a newer version".

my iPhone has started to lose signal then when you reboot it it comes up with the message activation required. When I unlock the phone it tells me to connect to iTunes. When I do this I have to restore the phone and restart it using my back up, but it keeps happening.

My iPhone 5c goes into Activation Required mode about 5-10 times per day and always overnight. Therefore my alarms do not work, can't receive texts or calls. I have to be in wifi to be able to re activate the phone. Once in wifi it takes me to the Apple ID log in page. Once I put in the info it takes me right back to the home screen as normal.

A few days ago I got an email from someone who looked familiar to my contacts so I opened it but soon realized it was spam with a weird link, and quickly deleted it without clicking the link. My phone started acting funny so I turned it off and back on and it told me "Activation Required", so I did and all of my setting preferences were lost, like my ringtone and read receipts and all the little things that annoy me. (I've had this phone for over a year) Then I opened Instagram and it had kicked me out so I immediately changed my password. All of my other social media was fine and let me in. I set all of my preferences again but it keeps asking me if I want read receipts like every time I message. Also every single time I turn my phone on it requires activation. If it was spam, what do I do to clear it without losing absolutely everything? And is there a way for me not to activate every time I turn it on?

I know that purchasing an iPhone at the subsidized prices will result in the extension of one's contract but how exactly would they see to it that this is done w/o forcing you to activate in-store?I ask because I'm leaving for Argentina soon and want to get the iPhone 4 at the $200 price point before I leave (phones in Argentina cost millions of dollars ). I plan on jailbreaking and unlocking it whenever the relevant software comes out (along with doing the whole cutting the SIM thing) but in the meanwhile, would I be able to continue using my current iPhone (first gen) on the line that I am upgrading?To lay it out, there are two lines on the account. Both due for an upgrade. Mom will upgrade her line to new iPhone and will activate and use as normal. I upgrade my line to new iPhone but don't activate and instead use current iPhone on that line until I leave and then give it to a sibling to take over the number (I don't think I have a choice but to give up my number). 1st gen phone doesn't have 3g so I have $20 unlimited plan. Agent already told me that an upgrade to the new iPhone will cause me to move over to one of the new data plans but I'm still unclear as to when I would have to choose the plan. At home via iTunes or what? Do they end up charging you the full amount of the phone if they find that you haven't upgraded your plan to one of the new ones (and indication that you aren't using the new iPhone yet)?I was already told that in the event that I lose my iPhone 4 or it gets broken, or whatever, I can simply use another phone with an ATT SIM (or swap the micro-SIM and use an adapter), give the IMEI number and they'll register the phone and change the plan accordingly.
Could i continue to use the old iPhone w/ that line? I'm assuming that I could while waiting for the phone to arrive so why not after it gets here? I basically don't plan on touching the new iPhone until I get to Argentina but will still obviously be fine with extending the contract for another 2 years (is that all they care about?) since the number will be used by someone.
My iphone wont switch on unless i put it on charge and it is saying activation required? I havn't dropped it or anything?

When it finally turns on, it gives me the "Requires Activation" message then a screen comes up that says plug phone into itunes. Plugged into my Mac Computer, and doesnt even recognize it. Also immediately after taking phone off wall charger, it shuts off.

When I selected "Mobile Hotspot" in Manage Connections, it allowed me to set up a password. When I now select if, a tick appears in the box and other devices can 'see' my WPA protected Hotspot, but I get a message showing on the screen saying: "Activation Required. Click Continue to subscribe to a Mobile Hotspot data plan using the browser on your smartphone or on a connected Wi-Fi device". The only option is "OK" (not Continue). If I select OK, then I go back to the Manage Connections screen, with no tick in the Mobile Hotspot box. I am on an Orange UK voice and data plan (orange internet APN).

I've had it for over 2 years. It's a 3GS. Today around 6 o'clock it just all of a sudden said "No Service". So I turned it off and then back on. Now it wont do anything but come up "Activation required" and then a black screen with the Apple logo. I even plugged it in to iTunes and it doesn't do anything. It wants me to Restore but I don't want to loose all my stuff.

I have read much information regarding memory management including Article KB14320 and KB17624. However, I have not seen a list of required software or applications that should not or cannot be removed and still maintain phone operation. I am sure there are some applications that fall in the category of preferred, and still others that are completely up to the phone operator. Can someone help with such a list? I need to get up to the suggested minimum of 400 MB application free space and currently at 60 MB. I would like to keep as many of my optional applications as possible.

iMessage and FaceTime perpetually show "Waiting for Activation" in settings. When I toggle these features on in settings, they both say "Waiting for Activation" beneath the toggle. Those goes on for hours, but it never activates. I have reset the phone with iTunes, powered off, done just about everything but through the phone at the wall.

I tried to restore my iphone to factory settings and now I am stuck at the activation screen. The message reads"Your Iphone could not be activated because the activation Server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iphone to iTunes to activate or try again in a couple of minutes". I am going on 3 days now. The phone is connected to my computer. Itunes is open but there is no indication that the iphone is connected. Apple support told me via email to uninstall itunes and re-install it. I did but the result is the same. When I try to restore/activate it appears to process and the following mesage appears" It may take up to 3 minutes to activate your iphone" but after the time expires it goes right back to the message above. When I hold down the home button, Emergency Call, Start Over, WiFi Settings and Cancel buttens appear. Nothing else works with or without the SIm card removed. Currently only my Wifi connection seems to register.
