activating SIM card message wont stop

[Android Question]

I have a droid razr maxx and when I initially turn phone on I will get the "activating SIM card"
message for hours at a time if I don't force stop it. This happens every time I turn on the phone.

Try removing and reinstalling the SIM card. If that doesn't work, it's either a bad SIM or phone. Contact Verizon.
