The information that you need is in the link that you were looking at above your name.


  1. Go to www.iCloud.com/find.
  2. Sign in with the Apple ID and Password of the person who originally set up the phone
  3. At the top, click All Devices.
  4. Select the device that you want to remove from iCloud.
  5. Click Remove from Account.


The phone will remain locked until this occurs.

Activation lock is a security protocol that can't be bypassed. Only the person it is locked to can unlock it.

If you bought this from someone and it came locked, try to get your money back, you will never be able to use the phone.
