DFU mode and restore in iTunes. Just note that if it has iCloud lock, it will be useless to you.

Should be unlocked by default

Funny all you had to do is take the phone to an Apple store or the carrier that shows up on the screen and they could find the owner in less then a day, so you don't try that hard did you? By now if you have had it a long time, the phone has been reported lost or stolen, so has since been blacklisted, so you can't activate it on any carrier, even if you were to get it unlocked.

Hire the people who unlocked the pulse nightclub shooter's phone. If the FBI needs help what makes you think it's going to be that easy.

Forget it, you can't.

The phone you stole by not handing it in still does not belong to you and will remain permanently useless to you. If you try to sell it for spare parts then off the buyer discovers it's stolen and makes a report then the crime tracks back to your doorstep.

Even if you do you'd eventually run into iCloud Activation Lock

  • How long does it take an iPhone to recharge after it had been dead a long time? My cousin just gave me her old iPhone 5. It's in good condition but it's been sitting in her drawer for months. I don't know how many months but a pretty long while. Anyways, i out it on the charger and it hasn't moved from the red. It's been on maybe… At least a half hour. Is it okay? I don't know anything about these machines lol.

  • If you had a time machine and could see 1 person, who would you go see and why? I would see Aristotle, not only would I be able to bump shoulders with Alexander the Great I would love to pick at Aristotle's brain about philosophy, his views on life what he thinks the meaning is and how he sees the world in a few thousand years, maybe even slip an iPhone in his pocket and see if we have flying cars and floating houses when I come back to the present.
  • I had IPhone 4s, has a passcode that I know. The device is now IPhone is disabled? Because my daughter used and tried to unlock until the phone is disabled, can I unlock without lossing all the files on it, I tried ITunes it refer me back to the IPhone to unlock by passcode. All the local Iphone service centers informed that the device needs software installation and I will lose all data on it, any help on this rergard, I don't have back up for the files.
