Hey guys, I have an iPhone 5s that I bought off of a friend, but when I restored the iPhone it became useless because neither him or I knew the apple id to the phone. Does anyone have a link to a method where I can completely reset my iPhone?

As far as I know, if the iPhone is iCloud locked, there is no way in without the apple ID.

There could be a bypass floating around out there that I may not know of though.

theres a hardware bypass but its very hard and time consuming, definitely not for a beginner. Also you could try the 4S method of bypassing which uses the phone in DFU mode and uses SSH files to access the root of the phone and delete the Setup.app which bypasses the setup. However if this is done its basically like a Ipod and i know of a way for the 4 to get the carrier back but its also a very tedious process and if you mess up you will brick the baseband and then its 10x as useless as it would be with a icloud lock..

Was it really his or did he find it/steal it?
