Q: I can't remeber my original icloud accont to activate my phone, what should i do?

When I first got the phone my brother put his icloud accont information to activate the phone. Later on I forgot my passcode to unlock my phone so I decided to reset my phone. But now I'm stuck in the activation process. My brother does not remeber his icloud accont information and he does not use the email he put when getting an icloud account. Please help me... What should I do..

    ACTIVATION LOCK - HOW TO

     

    So - you have an iPhone or iPad but unfortunately it's stuck at the iCloud activation screen? And you don't remember your iCloud password and unable to restore your iCloud account - which means you are unable to use your device. You may think about selling your iPhone "on the cheap" to get some money back because it's better than keeping an unusable iPhone.

     

    Don't give up - because I may help you to remove the iCloud account from your iPhone / iPad for free (Someone called it "Unlock iCloud").

     

    FIRST ADVICE : UNLOCK YOUR IPHONE / IPOD / IPAD BY YOURSELF ONLY !!!

     

    Do not use any Third Party Software of Third Party Brokers ( only if  they are officially authorized by Apple) , you will simply waste one month of your time and you may also lose  your money ...

     

     

     

    WHAT YOU NEED TO UNLOCK YOUR DEVICE BY YOURSELF ( ANY IPHONE / IPOD / IPAD)  :

     

    1. You need the Email Address

    ***The Email address associated with your Apple ID ( the one associated with Icloud)

     

    ***If you don't remeber your Email , you may try to "Guess It" through Apple wizzard procedure :

    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201354

     

    ***If Apple Wizzard  does not work  for you , contact me through this forum  :-)

     

    2. Access your  Email Address linked to Locked Icloud

    You will need to get access to your email address , in order to get full control of your Apple ID ( Manage Apple ID , Change Email , Change Password , etc)

     

    3.  Access Icloud

    If you remeber your Apple ID Password , use it to access your  Icloud.com account , otherwise , ask apple to reset your Password through Email Verification

     

    4.Find My Iphone App

    Once you get access to your Icloud.com website , go to "Find My Iphone" App and use it to "Unlink" the device you need to set up  from the list. Select "All Device" , then select the device you need to set up with another Icloud Account.

     

    If you followed this procedure by the letter , you should be good to go ,  if something is wrong , just contact me through this forum, and I should be able to help you unlock your device from icloud for free :-)
