your device if you got it secondhand and
0:02
it's completely unusable because it's
0:04
not activated so we're going to skip the
0:06
activation the setup screen and this is
0:08
especially useful for those of you who
0:09
buy secondhand devices if the seller
0:11
scammed you and they are demanding more
0:14
money in order to remove the device from
0:15
their account cuz if they don't do that
0:17
if they sell you the device and they
0:19
don't remove it from their own account
0:21
then you will be stuck with a paper
0:22
weight device i'm going to show you how
0:24
to fix that without feeding the scammers
0:26
so I'm going to use a tool called any
0:28
unlock iPhone password unlocker from
0:29
iMovi and this one supports iOS 18 as
0:32
well so there is a version for both
0:34
Windows and Mac OS and this one supports
0:36
multiple types of issues including from
0:38
the lock screen MDM and the activation
0:41
which is what we're going to use today
0:43
if you forgot your backup password your
0:44
screen time passcode and stuff like that
0:46
but do know that this one is designed
0:48
for your own devices please do not use
0:50
this for any illegal stuff so we're
0:52
going to get into it in a second and I
0:54
have a device plugged in here and as you
0:56
can see this device was bought
0:57
secondhand and unfortunately is not
0:59
usable it says in here that it may take
1:01
a few minutes to activate the device but
1:02
the seller is demanding more money to
1:04
remove it from their account after
1:06
showing that it's completely unlocked in
1:07
the offer on eBay let's fix this device
1:10
in order to do that I'm going to open
1:11
the any unlock application over here and
1:13
we're going to go straight to the bypass
1:15
iCloud activation lock i'm going to go
1:17
over here and we can just press start
1:18
now now this one works with A1 and
1:21
previous devices it's not going to work
1:22
with newer devices so make sure you have
1:24
a compatible device now as you can see
1:26
here it says iPod Touch 7th generation
1:29
the latest iPod touch they ever made and
1:31
we can actually go ahead and agree with
1:32
the terms and conditions over here press
1:34
confirm and the terms and conditions
1:36
just say that you will need to jailbreak
1:38
your device in order to bypass the
1:39
screen and that will use check rain and
1:41
that the SIM card will not work after
1:43
this if it's a device that supports SIM
1:45
cards and you should not reset or
1:47
upgrade the device because it will
1:48
relock now I'm going to go ahead and
1:50
press bypass now and it will instruct me
1:52
into putting the device in DFU mode i'm
1:54
going to go ahead in here and select
1:55
iPod touch as that's what I have and I
1:57
have the latest version so I'm going to
1:58
follow these instructions over here in
2:00
your case you would select the device
2:01
that you have all right so as you can
2:03
see it says in here make sure your
2:04
device has entered the above interface
2:06
otherwise reconnect immediately so I'm
2:08
going to press confirm and yes it does
2:10
now show a Apple logo with a lot of text
2:12
on the screen so everything is working
2:14
as planned the device is now rebooting
2:16
so if you see the screen over here
2:17
that's exactly what you should see i
2:19
heard my device booting right now so
2:21
that's a pretty good sign and we're
2:22
waiting for it to finish everything in
2:24
here it says in here if the device keeps
2:26
a black screen or boot screen please
2:28
reconnect the device so um yeah it says
2:30
in here iCloud activation is bypassed
2:32
successfully i'm going to press done
2:34
over here and it says please do not
2:35
factory reset the device or flash the
2:37
firmware your device will be locked
2:39
again so do not update iOS or reset it
2:41
feel free to log in to your App Store or
2:43
iTunes account but don't log into iCloud
2:46
in settings as I mentioned this will not
2:48
work with SIM card and phone calls and
2:50
stuff like that that's unfortunately
2:51
going to be broken now this is what I'm
2:53
seeing on my device it says "Welcome to
2:56
iPod." And if I press get started as you
2:58
can see now the device is fully
3:00
functional and we can use it properly we
3:02
can of course open the applications they
3:04
all work and as you can see nothing is
3:06
broken except for the fact that we
3:08
cannot use a SIM card and that we cannot
3:10
use iCloud you should also avoid going
3:12
here in the software update and updating
3:14
the device because it might relock again
3:17
other than that the device should be
3:18
fully usable now without having to pay
3:20
the scammers their extra price so that's
3:23
basically it that's how you use the
3:24
program as you could see the program has
3:26
multiple options available over here
3:28
including removing the iTunes backup
3:29
encryption if you forgot your password
3:31
you can also do device verification so
3:34
we can go ahead and connect the device
3:35
and as you can see it says in here Apple
3:37
ID lock is on however I can use the
3:39
device properly now you can also get
3:41
information about the model and the
3:44
serial number and the regions and
3:46
capacity and front camera serial number
3:48
battery serial number mainboard serial
3:50
number and stuff like that this is a
3:52
device purchased from eBay so I'm not
3:53
concerned about you knowing the serial
3:55
number but you got the idea this
3:56
provides a lot of valuable information
3:58
including whether it's GL broken or not
4:00
whether it's in warranty and of course
4:02
how many times it was charged so how
4:05
many charge cycles so yeah that's
4:06
basically it definitely check the
4:08
program out in the link below as I said
4:09
a free trial is available down below and
4:11
it also supports iOS 18 on the iPad 7th
4:14
generation so thank you for watching i'm
