Ho am i supposed to activate my phone? the sim is in but i cant text or call?

You activate through itunes

I am in itunes. nothing came up

the phoen is up and working and backed up, shows tmobile and everything

Eject SIM.

Call T-Mobile.

Update SIM number over the phone.

Done.

edit: use the SIM that came with the phone. I tried activating my 6 with the card from my 5s and it wouldn't work.

i have the sim that came with the phone, its already inside. i assume to call tmobile i guess

 

[Bert.]

Or you can do it online.

I call it in because it has always been an instant update that way.

[Bert.]

I don't know what time zone you live in but if it's not too late take it in to a store so they could activate it for you.

@JayMosEnvied go into settings and turn the sound on. its automatically selected to be off for whatever dumb reason once you update lol. after googling and finding nothing i just thought of it and saw that. lol i had even deleted the app and re downloaded it before trying that out.

Just got my preordered SG iphone 6+ 16gb today. Here is a mini review for anyone interested...

I came from a Note 3, and a iphone 4S prior to that. I have no loyalty to either company but after playing around with the iphone today I have to admit I'm not impressed and it actually feels like a downgrade from my Note 3. The only reason why I got the iphone 6+ is because I wanted a better camera since I take a lot of pictures, and I missed the crisp display on Apple products. The new iOS has more features than my 4S but still not as good as the Note. I immediately missed the Note keyboard layout with the numbers on top and the ability to swipe to type. Also miss the back button and the menu button. However, I do like the simplicity of the iphone and that it doesn't come with all the bloatware that Samsung does.

One thing I regret is getting the 16gb. I had the 16gb 4S and never had a problem with the size so I got the 16 again, but the phone had 10.9 GB of free space right out of the box. I guess I just have to back up my photos often and delete old ones. I do like the size and feel of the phone, and the finger print feature is pretty cool. I'm sure once I get used to the phone and have it set up the way I wanted to, I'll like the phone more.

Ordered a 6+ 64gb gold said 6 week wait but what I'm hearing is ppl are getting them 3-4 weeks. Wasn't even expecting to upgrade until December at the soonest because that was when my upgrade was but my family plan decided we were gonna move from sprint to t mobile.

Anyone rocking their 6+ naked? I have the apple leather case on mine but thinking about taking it back. Lately I've been taking it off more and more and I usually always stop using cases after a couple months but $54 is steep to just sit around

Same situation. Got the leather case as well only because the 6+ is slippery and I'm not trying to drop it in the streets. Only use the case when I go out. Caseless at home

And at dudes using screen protectors. never have I ever used one and my screen never had 1 scratch. Ya must have long nails or something. Case + screen protector take away from the phone experience imo

anyone switch from a note 2/3 or s4/5 to a 6+? I have an upgrade next week and contemplating on the note 4 or give iphone a chance and get the 6+

People have been complaining about light scratches on the 6, not even doing much to scratch it.

I felt like this the first week I had it but you'll appreciate the size later on. I can't go back to a smaller screen now

 

[BruceUppercut]

Yeah man I've never used a case on any iPhone before and anytime I tried, I'd get over it within a week. I'm debating taking this one back and buying that Spigen one for $12 if needed. I think that now since I'm more used the the 6+ the leather case is gonna end up in the drawer.
