If you got an iPhone from a friend or purchased it second hand,
you might run into the activation lock after restoring it to factory settings.
Just ike this:
It's asking you to enter the apple id and password.
What if you can't get all these credentials?
Here is an Activation Lock Help button.
By tapping on it,
you'll see it's explaining why you are here and what to do,
and additional information could be found at support.apple.com/kb/TS4515,
which is a support document about the Activation Lock.
If all these information doesn't help you,
here is a work around you might be interested,
which makes it possible for you to bypass this without the apple id and password.
Let's jump in!
The tool i'm using here is 4MeKey,
you'll find the link in the description below if you'd like to download.
So once installed,
plug your phone into the computer.
Then hit the start button.
Consent to the agreement and hit next.
It'll be suggesting a jailbreak.
By clicking on the link,
you'll land on a step-by-step jailbreak tutorial.
So first we are going to download the Checkra1n iSO file,
then the Rufus file,
Once completed, run Rufus.
Then plug a blank usb thumb drive into the computer.
Once recognized, select Checkra1n,
and start creating the bootable drive.
Make sure to tick the Write in DD image mode option
and click OK for all the pop-ups.
[Laughter]
Once done, restart the computer.
When it boots up, press f12 key to enter the boot options.
Now select the usb storage device,
hit enter to boot from there.
Seconds later, you'll see the Checkra1n jailbreak wizard.
Navigate to the start button,
press enter to the confirm.
The device will be put in recovery mode first.
Click next to continue.
Once in, press the start button,
Then quickly follow the instructions to put the phone into DFU mode before each countdown is over.
For iPhone 6s,
is press and hold both the side and home button for four seconds,
then release the side button while holding the home down button for another 10 seconds,
the screen should remain black.
Now the jailbreak is in process.
Once done, you'll see the hello screen again.
Now let's reboot the computer,
and run 4MeKey from scratch.
This time we'll see the start remove button,
by clicking on it, we'll witness the magic of 4MeKey.

OK, now it says the iCloud activation lock has been removed successfully.
Let's get back to the device and check it out.
This data and privacy screen indicates that the activation lock is no longer ahead your way.
Let's move on,
when got to the apple id sign in option, make sure to skip it,
and proceed to the home screen.
Then in settings, you'll see the apple id has been signed out.
That's it.
Thanks for watching.
See you in the next video.
