If the iPhone was hacked to unlock it for use with multiple carriers, restoring it, un does the hack, returning the iPhone to its locked status.


Being locked it will require a sim card from the cellular service provider it was locked to to activate.


There's no way around this other than getting it legally unlocked. Otherwise, everytime you restore it, you will need to hack it again, for it to accept your sim card.
