Hello dilan1989,


I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing, but it sounds like you may be having issues erasing your iPhone due to the Find My iPhone Activation Lock feature, which involves iCloud. If that is the case, you may find the steps outlined in the following article helpful, in particular the section about removing the device via iCloud.com:
