I decided to factory reset my iPhone 13 Pro because it was extremely buggy and I was having multiple issues. I have an iPad and my photos and everything that I had on my phone and was able to sync are synced in my iCloud and are on my iPad as well, so I made sure to prepare.
I chose to keep my eSim on the new startup because I still wanted to use the same number without any hassle. My carrier is T-mobile. However, it will NOT let me set up my phone. It keeps saying "Unable to activate. This iPhone cannot be activated without an internet connection." My phone is connected to the internet, however, and it is very strong. I even tried to set it up using my pc on Windows 10, I have iTunes and Apple Devices installed. No matter what type of cable I use, USB-C or USB-A, my pc doesnt even recognize that a device was connected. I don't even hear the Windows sound. I've tried restarting both my pc and my phone and I still have the same issues. I've even tried connecting my iPad to my pc to see if my phone was the issue, that didn't work either. I did also try putting my phone near my iPad and setting it up that way, and it was about to complete but then I got that same internet error, still while being connected to the internet. I really need help because it feels like I've hit a brick wall and this is the only phone I have and I'm concerned that I've made a horrible mistake by resetting it.
