    Question Activate G1 Without SIM - Need Help...

    I have tried a lot of guides on a lot of websites with no luck. I got a G1 from a friend of mine, it has no SIM and there is no way i can unlock it or use someones SIM to activate it. Most guides have me go through the Android Developer thing witch i did right until i came to the part that the settings screen is supposed to pop up. When i put the command into the phone nothing happens.. No settings panel, nothing at all so i can't turn the WIFI on to activate it with my Google Account. Is this because the phone was activated before? I wiped the phone when i got it and thats what messed it up in the first place... Another thing i noticed is every time i wipe the SD card and reset the phone, etc. that welcome to android screen never pops up it goes straight to the No SIM Card screen.

    This is such a common problem.
    There should be a specific unlocking software.

    I bought a g1 phone from a friend. He factory reset the phone and set up everything so I wouldn't have any difficulties with the google account log in. I have had this phone for a good 3 weeks now. Then whenever I would go to market, and any data plan relating app, it would say his gmail account, and then prompt me to enter a password and says 'gmail password changed' but everything was still working fine over wifi. today, just recently, all my contacts got erased and whenever I click the gmail icon, it leads me to a google account set up. I don't know how the information on my friends google account got deleted, but now I cannot even add contacts, it always force closes.

    is there anyway to create a google account without the data plan just so I can data sync contacts to my phone? or at least add contacts?
