Has this been activated?

Yes my chip has been activated. Took only seconds to set it up through the website. You can also activate it by calling the number on the card.

You have to activate in on Straight Talk website. It is pretty quick to do 5-10 minutes tops

And I just found my old review on this: "One note - we had to wait a bit more than 90 sec (it's a suggested time by instruction) to make it activated the first time (it's activated by water). But it's not a problem."

no need to activate, just follow step by step of the instruction until finished and then it should be work as is stated.

Yes, it requires activation. Soon as you turn it on it prompts you to activate it, and you can't access anything in the phone until you activate it.

Unfortunately, no. You have to push the button to activate and inactivate, which is annoying.

Yes, the red button activates it. The energy is stored there for a while until it is discharged on something (such as a fly or hand).

No. I'm using it with another device but I had to call to activate it. I couldn't activate it online without a code from a phone.

No, it is not an Activator of any model. Go to Activator(dom)com and you'll be able to see the latest Activator Methods Models there. Best, MC

No, The one I purchased had new software loaded, and stopped at the ready to run for the first time. I had to enter the product key on the unit to activate it.

I have never used it but yes, it does. The owner's manual explains how to turn it on. The menus are easy to use.

This should be on when all connections are made. I don't know of any way to manually turn it on.

If I remember correctly, it had a new iLok stick with it, ready to activate. Hope this helps...

That is a good question. Mine just came on as well. Read the previous 3 answers. Thank goodness there are accurate answers to our questions.

I personally did not, but had to call and talk to an actual person to activate it (versus doint the #228 auto activation). However, this phone is awful... it is not user friendly. Also, I had two of these and both would shut off randomly; many technical problems. You will likely regret having this phone.

I think so. I havn't used that option, but I think I saw that on the enter location screen. I can check tonight on my way home.
