There is nothing as ask a new iPhone, open box, see our new little gem there, turn on your phone, start to configure it and get to tinker with it. But it seems that this is something that we can’t say all this year, because more and more are the users who are complaining that their phones, new theory and which have paid the full price, has come them with Blockade of activation with an ID of Apple that know nothing.
Sound the alarm occurred for the first time in forums MacRumors where users are posting their experiences with their recent acquisitions and the blockade of activation, a security system that came with iOS 7 that prevents a user to select an iOS device if you do not enter the ID full associated Apple and your password. But it more strange is that those users are complaining of that this is passing with the iPhone 7 / Plus and with the iPhone 6s.
Some iPhone iPhone new 6s and 7 come with activation lock
I just received my new iPhone 7 glossy black Plus 256GB. It looks Immaculate, the display is perfect, everything looks good… The only problem is that it seems someone has already used it because the iPhone asks for the account to activate it – 0…@icloud.com. Apple says that it must be replaced […] Now I have to wait for a replacement iPhone return this once. MacRumors reader with nick Balders.
In social networks, particularly on Twitter, when a user has twitted about the problem has been getting responses from other users who have also seen their new iPhone got them blocked. Some users say that Apple has disabled them blocking activation remotely to present proof of purchase to you. Can disable you the lock in any Apple Store or call Apple customer service phone, but if it happened to me I would return the terminal; not feel comfortable thinking that I have paid 100% of an iPhone that has already been used.
While Apple does not say nothing of way official, still not is knows what has last with these iPhone blocked. If we take into account that everything seems perfect and does not even a month 7 iPhone is on sale, it is likely that these devices have been returned by your previous buyer during the first 15 days. If that is what has happened, the iPhone will be perfect, but Apple should have verified his status before selling them. Another possibility is that they have done some testing on the Assembly line and have not restored the device 100% well. What would you do if you come across this problem?
