Well, if a GSM iPhone, a sim card is required in order to activate it. So, do you have a sim card?

It's sounding like your phone is locked to a carrier which is NOT one of the sims you are trying.

You mean you hacked your phone, & Apples's servers have detected such & now you're in the mess you're in.

If you want to fix this, get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to.
