Q: other way for me to get pass activate

Hello kayfromvirginia,

I'm sorry, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question, and/or what your intended use for the iPhone is. If you have just recently gotten a new iPhone and would like to use your previous iPhone without a cellular plan, you may find the following article helpful:

Otherwise, if you are having issues activating a new iPhone, then this article may be more useful:

Sincerely,
