    Can't get past activation screen...

    I have a Verizon iPhone 4s, 5.1.1

    I reset it (like an idiot) and now can't get past the activation screen, because I have no original sim. I bought it off Craigslist. The dialer trick isn't working, and verizon has it reported as lost so it won't activate it for me.


    is there anything I can do? Any support is appreciated.

    You tried the emergency call 911 trick?

    Sounds like you bought a lost/stolen phone and are out of luck.

    Try restoring with iTunes. Reset has been glitchy for me, found best just to restore in iTunes for a fresh install. Do the 3 "R's" reset restore reinstall
