How To Activate Your iPhone Without Official iPhone Carrier SIM
Comments

Go to Ebay and buy a att sim card for .99 that will solve this problem and make your iphone as an expensive Ipod (at least) and wait to the nxt jailbreak
-
Or you could just take an old Att sim card even if it doesn't have service and it will activate. Wow and it's free!!!

AT$T sim card only work with iphone from US. AT&T Sim does not work with iphone 3GS from any other countries. What if you buy an iphone from US and it was ship from Germany. How do you activate your phone if you do not a sim come with the iphone? It works not even like an iPod. can't do anything guys.

Used Spirit, downloaded latest sources from cydia, then ran UlrasnOw all done from wifi link.
Happy days !! -

ok, throw away or cut your at&t sim card metal part first then restore your iphone to firmware maybe 3.1.3 (stock firmware), then show me how do you jaillbreak your iphone 3gs. don't tell me you borrow your at&t sim from a friend later that's lucky enough your iphone from US.
What if you don't know where it is from and you do not have an original sim come with that iphone.

I bought my iPhone a year ago when It it was still not officially released here.. I tried updating it and this happened.. :( I think it's in 3.1.3, 05.12.01 now.. Can this be solved?... Thanks...

Radioshack doesn't carry them. Their site doesn't even list any.

Can you confirm this? I've an old one lying around and I just don't dare to use it cause I don't have a spare phone.

Same here. Just bought the phonebook card after watching the video and it doesn't work. Stuck in the emergency call!!!

Guys! You don't need this phone book sim card they are talking about. Just use the blank card that comes with Iphone 4. I plugged and unplugged my new Iphone into USB port twice and was able to activate the phone with no problems using ITunes.
-

How are you suppose to access Cydia from your iphone when the iphone hasn’t been activated yet and his blocked on the ‘login to Itune’ or Wrong Sim card inserted…?Thanks

After I dropped my phone in a glass of water, I had to take it apart with one of those little screwdrivers for glasses. It wasn't perfect but I managed to get it back in order.Naturally, I bought one of those little screwdriver and suction cup sets and nabbed my friend's old ATT LG Phone. He still had an old Cingular SIM- they fit the same.Now.. What do I do to get my dark screen back to normal? I can't seem to figure out what happened this time. (Yes, I did it again.)
