With your suggestion, Ali_Lalehroo - connected my old phone to itunes, where I removed all apps and unchecked syncs then applied those settings to the old phone. I did not think I could still connect to wifi without the phone being activated, but I was able to and then my apple id would erase my settings and history. turned off find my phone and then reset as a new phone.
I was having this problem with my Iphone6. Then I realized my phone was no longer using data since I had switched to my iphone7. So I switched it to wifi and then I could go thru the last step and erase my iphone.
First turn off the find my iphone
the try to erase it....check your internet connection if you have problem in entering apple ID
or do another work...Try to restore it with itunes...i think it's betterđ
Hey! Have you found a solution in the meantime? I have the same problem.
