My Phone is stuck on activation mode, username and password required, Local Software Mechanics can't be resolve out, can anyone tell me the procedure or help me out.
iPhone 6, iOS 9.2
Seems that you purchased a used iPhone. The original owner of the phone has to clear and reset it to factory condition before you can start using it. There is no way around this security feature. If that's not possible, all you can do at this point is to demand your money back.
Well, any 'Software Mechanic' as you refer to them worth their salt should know the answer to this with an iPhone - you have come up against the Activation Lock which is there to prevent theft and there is nothing you can do about this. You will never be able to use this phone.
Take the phone back for a full refund as you will never be able to use it. Activation Lock is there for a reason and you have quite possibly been scammed and sold a stolen phone.
Cut your losses and buy a new phone from a legitimate source.
What if I purchase a device that is still linked to the previous owner's account?
Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account. Learn how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.
How do I check for Activation Lock before purchasing a used device?
When you buy an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple Watch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device is erased and no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
You can check the current Activation Lock status of a device when you visit icloud.com/activationlock from any Mac or PC.
Or you can follow the steps below to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
- Turn the device on and slide to unlock.
- If the passcode lock screen or the Home screen appears, the device hasn't been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Don't take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it's been erased.
- Begin the device setup process.
- After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you're asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner isn't present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Don't take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you're asked to “Set up your iPhone," “Set up your iPad," or “Set up your iPod” the first time you turn it on.
