Kind of difficult to figure out what you're getting it, but I'll try.
How is it you have a phone that has no cellular service? Wifi is a nice bonus, but we're talking about a cellphone which should access the internet over cellular. Even crappy 2G EDGE service is adequate for FindMyiPhone to get a fix.
Worst case, do a DFU restore on your phone. Either restore from your icloud backup or restore-as-new if you failed to make any backup anywhere.
True, FindMyiPhone has its limitations in terms of locating/recovering your phone since a crook can pull the SIM or turn the phone off; thus the new activation lock feature so the phone is unusable if marked Lost. That is aimed not so much to return your phone to you as to reduce thefts over time by eliminating much of the value of stolen iphones.
