I bought a used iPhone 3GS for my mom and I am trying to activate it but it creates a new iPhone name but stil puts the previous users phone number as the main...I restred twice but I can't get it to be activated as my moms number...please help
 
That doesnt make sense.
You restore it with itunes and you have her sim card inside right?
How can the previous owners number show up unless you have his old sim still in the phone.
