If you have just purchased a new iPhone or you need to reset the iPhone to factory settings for some reason, you can't avoid entering the iPhone settings screen if you need to use the device normally. You need to insert a SIM card on your iPhone, which is a crucial step in activating your iPhone. However, some issues always prevent us from moving on. Sometimes we may not be able to insert a valid SIM card into the iPhone, and you may not be able to set up and access the iPhone. Your iPhone will stay on the "No SIM Card Installed" error if you open your phone without a SIM card. How to activate iPhone without SIM card?

If you plan to unlock iPhone activation without SIM card, you probably just want to use it as an entertainment tool instead of making a phone call. What should you do? Is there any effective way to quickly remove iPhone activation screen without having to insert a SIM card? By reading this article, you are provided with a few effective ways you are worth trying.

Part 1: Using Emergency Call Feature to Activate iPhone

Emergency Calls feature can be handy in activating iPhones without SIM card. However, we do not recommend using an emergency call to activate your iPhone. If you think this is fine, you can do this:

Step 1. When your iPhone displays a “No SIM Card Installed” error message, press the Home button to view the options for making an emergency call.

Step 2. Dial the number 112 or 999 and immediately press the power on/off button to disconnect the call when dialing.

Step 3. A pop-up window will appear on the screen, click Cancel and end the call. Your iPhone should now be activated.

The success rate of this method is not 100%. We recommend that you close all operations as soon as someone answers the call. Since you are calling an emergency number, it may cause the police to break into your home. Please think twice before implementing it.

Part 2: Use R-SIM / X-SIM to Activate iPhone without SIM Card

To activate iPhone without SIM card, you can give priority to using an R-SIM or X SIM card. Follow the steps on how to do it.

Step 1. Insert the SIM card with R-SIM or X-SIM into your phone.

Step 2. Turn on iPhone and select the desired network. You should select the carrier from the list or enter the IMSI code then confirm your choice.

Step 3. Restart your iPhone.

Step 4. After rebooting, the iPhone should start connecting to the selected network, and the activation completion message should pop up on the screen.

Now you can set up your iPhone.

Part 3: Use iTunes to Bypass iPhone Activation Without SIM Card

Step 1. Launch iTunes and connect your iPhone to your computer using the USB cable.

Step 2. iTunes will detect your iPhone. If it is locked to the network, the message "No SIM card detected" will pop up. If you are not locked to a specific network then you will get a pop-up message "Set Up as New iPhone or Restore from backup".

Step 3 Select "Set up as new iPhone" and click on "Continue".

Step 4. After that, you will see an option "Sync with iTunes". On this screen, click on "Get Started" and then select "Sync".

Once you've done everything, you can disconnect your iPhone from your computer and you'll see that the iPhone is activated.

Part 4: How to Full Access iPhone without Apple ID Password

How can I delete Apple ID without password? You can access the entire contents of your phone by using a correct Apple ID. But sometimes things don't go well. If you buy a second-hand iPhone or iPad on a platform, you can't complete the setup process because it always pops up the screen asking you to enter your previous Apple ID and password, but you don't know. Or you have an iPhone that you haven't used for a long time, and now you have forgotten your Apple ID password, which will temporarily disable your Apple ID. As a result, if your Apple ID is locked out in some way, it can get serious when you can't use every feature on the phone.

If you purchase a used iPhone and the owner does not provide the Apple ID password for some reason, or if you permanently forget the Apple ID password, in order not to make things worse, we provide a guide that will help you remove Apple ID from iPhone 11/11 Pro/ 11 Pro Max/Xs/Xs Max/XR/X/8/8 Plus/7/6S/6, even if you cannot access the password.
