Galaxy Note 3 - Activation issues/In store workaround

[jpmaximus]

For those of you who had activation issues today with the Note 3 not reckognizing the sim card sent with your phone, my local Verizon store came up with a workaround. They simply take your sim card and put it in another 4G phone and once that phone activates the Sim and connects to 4G it can be placed back into the Note 3 which will then reckognize and connect to 4G. This will only work with the sim card that was registered to the phone when it was shipped. I spent 3 hours today trying to activate and the second visit to the store was a charm. I can now enjoy this beast of a phone!
