Can't remove previous owner's apple id from iphone 5?

The previous owner took the phone off of their icloud account and find my iphone. I have turned it off and on, reset it, and restored it, but it still prompts me for the old owner's apple id. What can I do for it to stop prompting?

Could see if an Apple Store could help but more than likely you would have to get into contact with him/her to solve that.

  • Setting up an iPhone after resetting it without using previous apple id? Ok, so my title doesn't really make sense but here's my situation. I recently sold an iPhone 4 on ebay and obviously I want to reset it. However, I have been told that after you reset it, you'll have to use the original apple ID you started with. Is this true? If it is, how do I do make it so that you can use any apple ID to set it up?

I already tried recovery mode. Didn't completely erase the phone. Still need Apple ID from previous owner. Can anyone tell me how to COMPLETELY erase it so I won't need the Apple ID or a passcode? I would truly appreciate it!
