    i bought a secondhand 3gs its unlocked and running ios 5, i put my sim in and went through the activation screens but its stuck on "The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported. Only compatible SIM cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carrier store." i know the phone was on vodafone if i got a free payg voda sim would it activate the phone then could i just put my tesco mobile sim on?

    your free vodafone sim would activate it but to use tesco sim you would need to JB and unlock it.

    Your phone is not unlocked, the only way to unlock without going back to the seller would be updating to the ipad baseband 06.15.00 which is not recommended.
