IPhone 4s Activation lock problem?
I use Craigslist often. Knowing about iPhones for a while, and the new ios Activation lock, i thought i would make sure the person would keep to his word and remove his account. However, he gave it to me and once i left to put my sim in, it locked me out asking for his email and password. I have reset it on my computer and done hours of looking and hacks and mods and don't want a freaking $250 brick. I can get past the lock at first (call 112 and crash the loader and crap) then i get to the home screen and none of the apps work. Is there anything i can do from here on? And before anyone wants to let their minds wander and assume i stole it, i have a legitimate conversation and proof ( for any legal purposes) of our Pinger text conversation. How can I restore or remove his Activation lock? IOs 7.0.4 on gsm iphone 4S.
Without his Apple ID and password you can't remove the lock
Without removal of the activation lock by the person who sold it to you, you're out of luck. And about the only reason he would not have unlocked it for you would be if it were stolen. So you can go to the police and tell them you think you were sold a stolen phone.

- Who can tell me how to get past that activation lock on iPhone 5s? I have proof of purchase to an iPhone 5s I purchased from eBay. Apple informed me that they or my phone provider could bypass the activation lock and that is why I purchased the phone for a better price than buying brand new. Then neither the Apple store nor AT&T could help me with my problem. The seller hasn't been much of a help and will not give me the information I need to get past the activation lock, is there another way?
