    • Make sure you have a SIM card installed. Old models of iPhone and iOS versions need a SIM card and will not activate unless one is installed in the SIM card tray.
    • Reseat the SIM card. Sometimes reseating the SIM card is necessary. You might see a NO SIM error even though you have a SIM card installed, and that could be because it’s not sitting in the SIM card tray correctly, making it impossible for your iPhone to read it.
    • Sign in with your Apple ID. You need to sign in with your Apple ID to activate your iPhone in some cases. This is because later versions of iOS include a feature called Activation Lock, and it protects your device from being restored and used by someone else in the chance that it’s stolen.
    • Make sure Apple’s activation server is online. As we said earlier, sometimes Apple’s servers get slammed, and it can cause high volumes of activation traffic that the servers just can’t handle.
