Activation Lock
My son can not remember the icloud account that he used and now we can not get the activation lock turned off to activate the phone. Is there any way around this besides taking it to apple?

Sorry to hear.
I wonder how he can forget the iCloud account (it's an alias to his Apple ID)?
Unless he still have the original receipt, Apple will not help.
