Hey-
I gave an American iPhone 3G to my inlaws in South Africa. There is no sim card installed but we were able to set up a new iTunes account and download apps and such this week. However, my husband updated it to 3.1.2 this afternoon and now is says:
No sim card installed - Need to install a valid SIM with no PIN lock to activate iPhone.
Also has a graphic of a cord to plug into ITunes.
If I press the Info button, I get
IMEI:
01 147200 685683 3
ICCID:
Unknown
Got any ideas? I don't want to jailbreak it, just use it as an iTouch so don't see why I need a SIM card. Any help would be appreciated. I'm flying back to the States this evening!!!!!!
