My brother suffers from the same problem, which is the activation lock, and he lives in the country of Djibouti, and you know Djibouti, it does not have a contact number with Apple
He knows the ID and does not know the password, and the necessary steps were done and steps were followed until an email was sent from Apple stating that he will communicate with you after two weeks. Unfortunately, communication was not completed.
I have a device that cannot unlock it, and the device to which if on its way I can unlock the device of its type 6+
Is there a way to bypass this lock in case I am the owner of the iPhone but I lost the details ??
