    If your iPhone is running iOS 7 and is locked to the previous owner's

    ID, you must find him and have him unlock it. This is a security

    feature in iOS 7, and there is no way around it. He should have unlocked

    the iPhone before selling it to you.

     

    If this is not the case or not what you are asking, please restate your problem

    with as much detail as possible.
