Hi, first off. I am a registered developer and I have the proper authority to download and install beta softwares.

Anyways, I have an iPhone 5s for Sprint that I just updated to the iOS 8 beta, but cannot activate the phone because I don't have a sprint sim card. I tried inserting a Verizon sim (my carrier is verizon) but that wouldn't work either.

Is there any work around to this silly activation process? Or will I have to ask all my friends to find someone with a nano sim card for sprint to let me use. Or if I call sprint can they fix this?

Thanks to anyone who can help!!

You need a sprint card
Good luck with the beta if this kind of problem stumped you lol

"Stumped Me" I am not stumped you dork, simply wondering if there is a work around. I've used pre release software since before iOS 5 thank you very much.

If you're coming to a NON-Developer forum and asking help with how to activate a BETA software...yes, you're stumped. :p
