Can you not put it into DFU mode and do a full restore on the device.

Don't restore it or try to jailbreak it if you're on iOS 7. If you restore it while it has Find my iPhone enabled you'll get the activation lock. If you jailbreak it you'll get a boot loop and have to restore it anyway.

If you can still access the settings of the phone try this.



If you've already restored it and you're stuck at the activation lock then there is nothing you can do but hope someone develops a bypass.
