Iphone 4s-Setup, Locked out, Icloud Bypass?

A family member has asked me to fix his Iphone.
Recently he let someone (of his friends) hold it, and he is locked out of his phone.
I have already went to iTunes and restored the phone, I'm now at a new setup point,
I have reached iCloud.
He does not know that person who it says the phone is linked too, so how can I hack the phone to get rid of that bypass?
*Most importantly, what buttons can i press to erase the phone COMPLETELY?(Means erases from and iCloud or such.)

You need password. The owner can also see right now on the map where the phone is at.

You can't bypass Activation (iCloud) Lock. If you don't have the password for the Apple ID to which the phone is linked, you're out of luck. That's the price you pay for using a stolen phone. You can still use the phone as a paperweight.

  • I purchased an iphone online and turns out it was icloud locked? I contacted the owner because their number was on the phone and he said its his mothers and she forgot it at a store and it was never turned in. I paid $300 for it but i still feel bad. I contacted them and asked if I can give them money for a new phone. Is it illegal to be in possession of a phone that was forgotten? I did not know upon purchase and now i feel stuck. What would you do?
  • Iphone setup won't recognize my icloud backup? I'm upgrading from a 4 to a 4s. I just backed up my 4 before I started this so that's all set. When I try setting up my 4s it dosent recognize my icloud backup. Any ideas why? It just gives me the option to start fresh or restore from iTunes which its not backed up on
  • IPhone 5 iCloud lock bypass? There has been videos on youtube that teaches one to bypass the iCloud lock on an iPhone running iOS 7. However when i try to access voiceover by pressing the home button 3 times, i can't get to voice over, only back to the emergency call screen. Any help? FYI got the phone from a second hand phone shop, and don't lecture me about checking the phone first, i already learnt from my mistake
