Hello everyone, I am looking for ways to activate my iPhone 6S Plus without Sim Card, since my Sim Card reader is broken and out of warranty, and since i reset my iPhone to factory settings, i am now unable to unlock since it requires Sim card to activate. Any possibilities to reactivate so that at least i can use it as music device or entertaining device
Thanks in advance
 
i tried and itunes also says no sim card is inserted on this device, and it says insert sim card
[doublepost=1507930204][/doublepost]I was thinking if there are any external Sim Card readers which i can use just to activate the phone and use it as a device

OP's sim reader is not working so the iPhone can't be activated.

Maybe the sim card is not making proper contact with the sim reader's pins? Maybe put a piece of tape of the sim card and insert again? I know that some sim cards are thicker than others.

Meaning the SIM card slot in the phone isn't working? I guess I didn't quite pick up on that originally when I saw "SIM Card Reader" being referenced.
