Can jailbreaking an iphone 6 remove icloud activation lock?
I recently bought an iphone 6 seconed hand but it is locked to someone icloud account and i can't remove it. A recent jailbreak has been released and i was wondering if jailbreaking the phone could help remove it because i have been looking everywhere and don't know what else to do. Please help.
update: Don't ask why i bought it if it was locked because i didn't know i don't need advise just answer the question thank you.
Never buy second hand they always scam you
No. Jailbreaking doesn't get past it.
Apple have ensured the security makes the iPhone useless to anyone other than the owner.
Too late for asking for advice, you have already screwed the pooch. Apple was way ahead of you here, and NO you can't unlock or Jailbreak your way past iCloud Activation. Apple has made certain that once the phone has been put in lost mode, that the finder or "thief" never gets past go to get a free phone. And now that the US carriers are also NOW blacklisting the IMEI/ESN of phones, all phones reported lost or stolen, or happen to be financed, can no longer be activated on cell phone networks.
So my hope is that you did not pay more than a dollar for this blacklisted iCloud locked phone. Because you got the raw end of the deal if you paid anything over $1.01 for the phone.
Nope. Nothing gets past that.
- Is it possible to Lose iCloud Activation lock by Downgrading to iOS 6 on iPhone 4? I have a iCloud locked iPhone 4 which was factory unlocked. I hacktivated it using win SCP and now the sim won't work. So i thought why not downgrade to a version when Activation Lock wasn't even created. That way i will have a fully working iPhone on iOS 6 right? Is that possible?

- ICloud Activation Lock? I recently bought an iPhone for my little sister off of ebay and when I tried setting it up for her it said that the phone had an iCloud Activation Lock. I don't know and can't contact the previous owner so I can't get their apple ID to sign in so I can unlock the device. What do i do?
- ICloud Activation lock? Downgrade to iOS 6 to remove? So I stupidly bought an iPhone 5C from eBay… It turns out it has the iOS 7 activation lock on it, I can't get anywhere with it and need to remove this blimmin' iCloud account, so if I was to put the device into Recovery/DFU mode and downgrade it to iOS 6 would this somehow remove the problem?
