      I recently had this issue on a 5S with iOS 9.3, what solved it for me was just installing an active SIM card (device was unlocked).
      I saw a comment saying this might be an A9 chip issue, I recently set up an SE1 and didn’t have the issue when nothing was in the SIM slot. Maybe it’s because I was on iOS 15, and it’s possible this issue is specific to A9 running iOS 9.

    Hi! I’ve read a lot of posts and comments about this issue with ios 9 activation error on reddit.
    Basically the 6S(+) and SE (2016) model would not activate on ios 9 since 2018, because there was an issue with the amount of signals the antenna chip would emmit. This would not be regulatory. This was discovered later on (2018) and was only effective on ios 9 A9 phones. Thus on why this specific ios was killed off by Apple.
    So if you have one of those devices on ios 9 that were already activated, there’s a high chance that it will get deactivated.
    My advice, keep the phone off the internet. Don’t put any sim in it. If you have more knowledge about jailbreaking: jailbreak the phone while u still can and save the Activation tickets. If one day u have this deactivation problem, you’ll be able to activate it manually.
    Anyway, i hope this helps!

      The 6s was not a huge thing. Been following Apple for a very long time and I can say that the 4, the 5s and the X were the most amazing phones when they were presented, because they actually brought a LOT of innovation at once. The 6s brought the 3D touch (useless for 99% of people) and a mega CPU (people dont usually value that). Since the X we’ve have solid phones, but nothing crazy

    I believe in some way you need to jailbreak/exploit the phone to delete the Setup Assistant, or maybe trying to use a 3rd party app like iMazing or 3utools to try skipping the Setup Assistant.
    This has been something I have consistently heard of throughout legacy iOS communities but I personally have no experience with this problem. I hope I can at least point you in the right direction with this, though.

    This was my second iPhone I bought, I got the iPhone 6s back in 2017 to try apple out and it was only 99 dollars brand new so I figured what the heck I’ll try it. I absolutely loved it but it was a little small for me and for 50 dollars more I quickly switched to the 6s plus. Over the years I switched to the 7 plus then a 11, and after that went to a 13 then last month got the iphone 14 pro. Absolutely love the apple ecosystem and have switched all my devices to all apple except for one windows 11 laptop for games

    i think the activation error is because at one point apple accidentally signed every ios version in existense and a lot of people downgraded their iphone 6s to ios 9 on mass.

    From September 2015 to as I type this comment I am the owner and daily user of an iPhone 6s Plus 64GB Silver model running 15.7 and with 1.1GB space available. The A9 in my unit is from TSMC. I have the original display with minor scratches and I’ve dropped my 6s Plus countless times with only a Apple OEM leather case protecting it. I have the original battery with battery health maximum capacity showing 72%. Sadly I don’t use my headphone jack having AirPods Pro for years that work well with my 6s Plus. I use my 6s Plus for CarPlay daily. Both of my vehicles are newer model years than my iPhone haha. I also use my 6s Plus for Apple Pay everywhere I can in store or online.
    I enjoy taking photos using the 12MP main camera with optical image stabilization and on/off/auto HDR. I love 3D Touch for cursor selection. I love my physical second gen Touch ID home button. I love double touching Touch ID for reachability feature dropping down the display.
    Per the iPhone 6 bend gate issue and 6s fixing that with 7000 series aluminum I am happy to say my 6s Plus is not bending!
    My 5.5” display with squared off corners and No Face ID obstruction makes for a great viewing experience.
    Needless to say I’m a holdout for the iPhone we all dream of but never get. My iPhone keeps giving and I don’t want to replace it with what we’ve seen just yet.
    What I want in a dream iPhone: USB-C, iPad Air style Touch ID, the dynamic island reimagined more so a dynamic beach along top of display meeting a slim array of hardware under the top black bezel, MagSafe with CarPlay data transfer, Made in the USA.

    Came here from Hugh Jeffrey’s video mentioning this. I like your unboxings of old iPhones and stuff but you have to be realistic about how this whole thing would go. Obviously you need a new battery as it’s been sitting for 7 years. Second, Apple has run the show on software updates since the beginning of their main devices like Mac, iPhone, iPad etc. In order for devices to operate and function normally, to patch major bugs and glitches etc yes you need to update to the latest software.
    All in all this shouldn’t be a huge shock.
