At risk at upsetting the gods here, put your sons iPhone in DFU mode (Google it for videos on how to do so) then Restore it as a new iPhone (not from backup) in iTunes. You won't have any trouble with it in the future from tis attempt.

And keep your son's iPhone away from his "friend".

I you didn't, I would have.
