Reset to factory an iCloud locked iPhone

You can force it into recovery mode and restore it as new in iTunes. But afterwards you will not be able to activate and use it for anything without the password to the AppleID currently logged into iCloud on it.

Erasing a device does not disable activation lock. You must know the AppleID/iCloud password to use that device or release it for someone else to use it.

Turn off Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support

This is a user based technical forum. Apple presence is minimal

and generally restricted to enforcement of forum rules.

If you have started the account recovery process, you will have to

wait for it to proceed - it is not instantaneous and may take a day or two.

What happens when you click the "Unlock Account" button

pictured in your post above.

You can't unlock it without the Apple ID and password.

You can't reset it without first signing out of iCloud.

I WOULD LIKE REST FACTORY MY I PHONE 6 NOW.
