It sounds like it may be network locked. Removing network lock depends on who it was connected with and the phone model.

You cannot reactivate a smartchip aka sim card...once it's deactivated for security purposes they are not reactivated. You will need to get a new smartchip

Nokia 2730C-1. can I unlock the network

If the phone was not used 2012, the phone number and phone have been deactivated from the network you used to pay for service. You need to set up a new contract as they expire after about 2 years of inactivity.

It keeps saying inactive usim

if it is a new sim it has to be registerd first, go to your networks shop to get it activated, also if its an old sim that hasnt been used for a very long time they "die", also it could be dirty, try cleaning the metal contacts with a cloth or an old toothbrush and switch cleaner, or alcohol, if you can see the metal contacts in the phone give them a rub as well. good luck

Iphone asking to be activated no orig sim

It sounds like the handset is iCloud locked (find my iPhone hasn't been turned off). This happens too many second hand phones, the previous owner isn't aware of this or u have bought a stolen phone?
If you know the previous owner they would know the apple ID and ID password to activate it, after that you would have to do a reset the phone.
Good luck
