Activation without SIM CARD?

History

Is there any way to find out why my iphone 3gs don't know my SIM Card.... and is there any possibility to acitivate my iphone without a SIM CARD so that I can Jailbreak it and unlock it?????

New phone? Or it a new problem ie worked yesterday but not today?? Check with network provider or that sim is compatible. You can jailbreak without sim I'm sure.. Check out red snow or redmondpie

pollytintop,

I bought it on ebay (not new) and I had to activate it new and it doesn't work because for activating you need a SIM Card... I put in my SIM Card but the phone do not register it.. When I put my SIM into my own Iphone it works without problems.. but the new one do not!

Scali,

Okey now I have acitvated the iphone with Redsnow.... but it doesn't know any SIM CARD.... it only writes in the left corner: No network (Kein Netz) even there is a SIm Card in it or not... Is it a hardware problem? If yes.... what can I do??

Scali,

I solved my problem with snowbreeze and redsnow.. I installed the ipad baseband and now the iphone knows my sim cards...

Scali,

I have fixed phones that do not read a sim by opening the phone and holding a little pressure on the sim sometimes to make sure it is making good contact. You can also touch up the solder joints on the sim tray and fix it as well. Of course you want to clean it really well before you do anything and see if that works. Or you can hackivate it to set up the phone to use for an ipod.
