How to unlock iCloud off a iPhone 5s?
I bought a iPhone 5s from a auction not knowing it was iCloud locked. Does any one know how to unlock it?
Sorry to say but you can't. ICloud Lock is Apple's anti-theft feature and there's no bypassing it. The ONLY way to unlock it is for the original owner to enter their email and password. You've just bought an expensive paperweight. If I was you I would complain as they've sold you something that is unusable. It's like selling a car, advertised as working yet it has engine in it.
I've been in this situation before, and the only way to get something out of the phone was to sell it to a shop for parts. I'd difinietly take the phone back to the auction and try to get your money back. Your phone is basically useless.
There's no way to unlock it without the owner's password. This protects it from being stolen, since it ensures that the phone will be no more than a paperweight. You've wasted your money on a stolen phone that you will not be able to use.
It would be difficult to get the phone unlocked from the iCloud Activation Lock and it will cost you too. So if you want to take that chance, you can give it a try. If you need help with your issue, mail me for more info.
