Hello,

My name is Linhbau from Hanoi Vietnam

I have an iPhone 5s

Yesterday I upgraded it to iOS 7.1 when it powered up I can't active the phone because:

It says the this iPhone is linked to an Apple ID b*****@icloud.com which is not the icloud id I'm using

The screen have only option to go back or punch in that ID with password

But I'm a dummie, when I purchased this phone I only register some name and password and now I don't remember.

I have all the provement that I have this phone legally.

WHAT CAN I DO TO ACTIVE IT?

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1

Without the original Apple ID & password, you cannnot activate iPhone.

This is Activation Lock in IOS 7 and cannot be bypassed.

You have to ask the original owner to unlock it for you.
