Q: How to bypass activation lock code
I have a friend who was given an iPhone 4 with the activation Apple ID and password but he had lost the paper with that information on it .he reset the phone and now he can't activate the phone because he lost the info. now he cannot contact his friend either because his friend moved out of state . how can we reset the entire thing to put a new Apple ID and password .

Sorry but you cannot. There is no known way to bypass Activation Lock. If he can't find the friend and obtain assistance from him then the phone is useless. If the friend can be located, he can help remotely -- see the lower section of What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
