I got my phone back and now I can’t turn it on

I lost my phone yesterday and put it on lost mode. Luckily I got it back late last night and now I can’t turn it on. When I try to turn off lost mode from my iPad, it won’t do it.

iPhone SE, iOS 14

If you are the owner of the iPhone or the owner has shared all information with you then to open Activation Lock:- If it is Activation locked, read here --> Turn off Activation Lock - Apple Support Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Learn how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.


If you are not the owner of the iPhone and do not have the Apple ID and Password then there is no way that you can get into this iPhone unless the original owner shares the Apple ID and password to you. If you are lucky you can get into this iPhone if they (owner) accidentally remove the device from their apple ID.
