What is the best steps to get iCloud removed?
First of all need to understand that iCloud Lock it just device link to exact Apple ID. And once Apple ID owner remove his device from iCloud account, it immediately become unlocked. This makes you understand that the best and easiest way to remove iCloud Lock is contacting with owner, and ask him to remove device from his account. Locked device can be in two states, first is Clean Mode and Lost Mode. In Lost mode you can see owners message, also almost always there is owners phone number.
If you are real owner of device and you just forgot password, if you have box and receipt, you should call to Apple support and request iCloud removal by yourself. It easier than you think, just call to your country Apple Support: “Contact Apple for support and service“.
If you are not owner of device, than first of all you need to try contact previous owner and agree that he will remove device from his account. Maybe you will think that it sounds wired, but believe me, most of people in the world is good people and just one call to owner will makes your iCloud removed.
What if you can’t contact previous owner? Or if there is no phone number at all? First of all you need to try to find Apple ID via glitches, one of them is Emoji bug. Here is some URLs that bring you instructions: “How To Bypass iOS 8 iCloud Activation Lock Screen“.
Unfortunately there is very low chance to get owners Apple ID by glitch, I can give this method 10-20% chances to success. But if you got previous owners email you should contact him and ask to remove. If email is not responding than you need to google his email and find Facebook and other social networks profiles. Try to contact previous owner in any possible way. If you have contacted owner and if he don’t want to remove device from his account, just suggest him money. Owners also was scammed or got lost their device, and they deserved to receive something for his device.
What if you can’t find any owners info and can’t contact previous owner? I spent some time to search ways to get owners Information and found people who sell information by IMEI. I was skeptic about this methods because I can’t imagine how do they get this information. But I talk with a lot of people every day and some of them told they used paid IMEI service that works. And also some users reported that this was fake information. More details how I find out is: “Test of 10 devices in lost mode to unlock via Apple employee“.
One day same guy from Romania was contacted me and he suggested me service that provide owner details by IMEI. I’m not people that believe first one I met, but he told me that he works with Pasha. Yes, that one Pasha who created manual to hardware iCloud removal for iPad 3G. Since Pasha is also from Ukraine he can’t receive donations via PayPal too, so he asked his friend from Romania to help him. I have contacted Pasha and he confirmed all information, he worked with this guy few months already and received donations well.
So I was sure that these people are not scammer and told that to owner of devices that was still pending to unlock. And also he selling his service via eBay. As you know eBay protect everyone from scammers, so that was final things that made me trust him and try. I talked with him a while and he told me that there is two ways to get owners information.
- Information by IMEI – it have chances 50-60%
- Information by IMEI+UDID – chances is 99%
Plz open the iPad
Help me find owner please !
I have a different situation. I have a couple of devices (Mimi, air, 4th gen), and I can’t contact the previous owner because he was my son and he passed away back in January. I contacted Apple and they said I needed a document stating I was in charge of making decisions for my sons estate and a certificate. We didn’t have any executor documents because my kid was 24 and didn’t have an estate, but we did offer the death certificate. Is there any way through back channels I could unlock his devices. I don’t want to sell them, I just want to know why my child would take his own life.
