mrpotatohead Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 about a month and a half ago i brought a iphone 6 on gumtree only to find it had details and there apps and data on it so i thought i would do the right this and wipe it completely only to find that it had now got icloud activation lock on it as i didnt remove there icloud account from it, any way i spoke to apple and they said nope there is nothing we can do without the original proof of purchase which baring in mind it would be almost impossible to get.. any way does any one know of a way to bypass it other than the dns method or at least make it so i can activate it.

Pathaleon Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 It's the only legal method...These things are put in place for stolen/lost devices so I'm sure legitimacy is probably questionable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a scam... just saying the only LEGAL method is to get the details from the previous owner. the illegal methods include swapping bga chips, stealth server activation and many other methods🤣 good luck with your iPaperweight Edited December 24, 2019 by CattoCattoExo 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His method is based on iCloud unlocking. But the software provider did not mention this issue. The best solution is to contact the original owner.
