Hello all,
I am living in Germany and have received an iPhone from Qatar as a present. I can not set up the phone and I don't know why. There is no sim lock or something similar, but I can not even setup the phone
When doing the set-up the following slide appears:
As there is no other option I go to next. Then the following appears
As I am living in Germany I can of course not fulfill this.
I don't have a verizon sim card, I just have my newly ordered nano sim card from my provider.
Is there anybody who can help me?

This was definitely an iphone 5 model? There was no SIM card in the phone when purchased?

Yes. Try turning the phone off and putting in your SIM card. Then reboot.
Hopefully the phone wasn't stolen either.

I think the problem is that I can reset only after it is activated. since it was activated when having the verizon card in it I guess I would need this card or the phone to be reset somewhere in an apple store??
no it was not stolen, it was originally packed and it was a official store. It think the guy wanted to do something good and to show that the phone is ok....
is there any chance to reboot completely?
