as far as i know it is not possible. You can use it as an ipod touch but service wise everything goes trough the sim. One more option is to flash it to cricket and use it with out a sim card.

... so, apparently my previous post didn't appear. i said i can't use it as an 'ipod touch' or do anything with it, because after i power up the 'toy', the 'touch android to continue' appears, i touch the android, and it says it can't do anything without a sim card.

*it is a verizon razr maxx, and i don't have a sim or anything else from verizon

On most phones you can touch all four corners of the activation screen to bypass it. Start in the upper left and go clockwise.

My Razr Maxx came in today. Unfortunately, it didn't come with a sim card, so I couldn't activate it. It's running ICS, and I tried the four corner trick, but it didn't work. I randomly tried sticking my T-Mobile micro sim in it, and that did the trick!

I have a Droid Razr Maxx
I wrote the prl but I cant dial *228 or *22890 to activate,
How do you manual activate your phone? It gives me error messages like Failed to call NAM information on ##PROGRAM
And it shows "write failed"when I try to manually activate my phone with QPST
How to use your phone without a sim card?
How to make it "nv only" on QPST?


THanks
