How do you make an old iphone into an ipod touch?

[bbplayer5]

After restoring it, it sits there at the multilingual emergency call screen. I just want this old iPhone to basically be an ipod touch. Any way to get around this?

Jailbreak and/or unlock it.

What do you mean? You want to use it for everything but the phone part? :confused:

If that's the case, then just go to settings and put it in airplane mode and then re-enable wi-fi. At that point the iPhone will basically be an iPod Touch.

The phone isn't activated, so thats not possible.
