There have been a load of reports coming in of a new bypass for Icloud activation lock 7.1 for the Ipad and Iphones. Well i can honestly say that all of these reports have been false. There has been a lot of work put into the project of this bypass but currently the is no way around it. So if a Survey is required then probably it is a fake. If anything comes to pass we will post here for free. We have been putting in a lot of work for this project but we have nothing solid yet.


Please Comment Any Tutorial request you may have. 
and have a great day.

How to turn off Find My iPhone remotely and bypass Activation Lock

How to turn of Find My iPhone remotely and bypass Activation Lock
If you're running iOS 7 or higher on your iPhone or iPad, Find My iPhone now comes with a feature called Activation Lock that prevents someone from wiping and using your device without your authorization. While it's a great theft deterrent, we see lots of people having issues due to forgetting to turn off Find My iPhone. Most commonly the problem comes up with second hand iPhones that have been bought, sold, or traded. Luckily, the previous owner can deactivate Find My iPhone remotely which should then, in turn, allow you to bypass Activation Lock. Here's how:

What you need to know first

Before beginning, please note that the original owner of the device will need to know the iCloud email address and password that is currently tied to the device. Without that, there is no way to bypass Activation Lock or Find My iPhone. The original owner will need to perform one of the following options, unless you know their iCloud info and can do it yourself.
Also, not all methods work for all people. You may have to try all three before you find one that works for you. So if the first method you try doesn't work, make sure you try the other one.

How to remove a device from an iCloud account using the Find My iPhone app

    1. Turn the iPhone or iPad in question Off or put it in airplane mode. If the device is on and Find My iPhone has an active location, it will not allow you to delete it.
  1. Launch the Find My iPhone app from a different iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and sign in to the account that is currently tied to the iOS device in question.
  2. Find the device in the list and tap on it.
  3. In the top right hand corner, tap on Remove.
That's all there is to it. If for some reason you don't see a Remove option, which some people won't, you'll need to try the method below using iCloud.com instead.

How to remove a device from an iCloud account using iCloud.com

  1. Turn the iPhone or iPad in question Off or put it in airplane mode. If the device is on and Find My iPhone has an active location, it will not allow you to delete it.
  2. From a computer, go to www.icloud.com and sign in using the iCloud ID that is currently tied to the iPhone or iPad in question.
  3. Now click on Find My iPhone.
  4. Click on All Devices at the top of the Find My iPhone screen.
  5. Find the device in question in the list and click on it.
  6. On the next screen, click on Remove from Account. You may get a popup over the map instead, if that's the case, refer to below.
  7. One more popup will come up asking you to confirm. Click on Remove.
If you got a popup with device information on the map instead of the device information screen like shown in the steps above, verify the device is Off and Find My iPhone isn't finding a location for it. If that's the case, follow these steps:
  1. Click on All Devices at the top of the Find My iPhone screen one more time.
  2. Find the device in the list again and this time you should see a gray x appear to the right of it. Click it.
  3. A popup will appear asking you if you're sure you want to remove the device. Click Remove.
That's it. No matter what method you followed above, the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in question should now be removed from the iCloud account it was associated with. Try restoring it again and this time, Activation Lock shouldn't be an issue.

Apple's iCloud security feature in OSX is bypassed in just 70 lines of code

If there is anything the tech world has learned about security, its that four-digit PINs are fundamentally unsafe. Align that against a poorly managed security foundation, and what you have is an open invitation for brute-force attacks. Unfortunately, this is what Apple has done with their iCloud implementation. If an Apple computer is remotely locked by an iOS device, the user would need to enter a 4-digit PIN on the Find My Mac app in order to unlock the machine.
A Github user by the name of knoy has uploaded iCloudHacker: its only about 70 or so lines of Arduino code that doesn't just make it ridiculously straightforward to brute-force your way through the Find My Mac lockout, but it also dances around the surprisingly lackluster security controls that Apple had tried to implement. The coder reports that it has been successfully tried and tested on 2010 & 2012 13" MacBooks.
The code in this program isn't doing anything fancy or special, nor is it exploiting something behind the scenes. It merely simulates a mouse and keyboard via USB and proceeds to enter passwords similar to how any normal user would. Don't get comfortable however-- this is worse than if it was utilizing some obscure exploit. What this means is that the same method can be repeated with anyone just entering passwords over and over again, and more importantly, it means they're being allowed to do so without the OS preventing them.
Rather than waiting for the 5 minute lock-out to expire before having another attempt, its quicker to just reboot
The first thing the program does upon boot is wait 5 seconds for the WiFi pop-up, and it would then move the mouse cursor over to the pop-up and close it. It then starts looping through the possible PIN combinations until it eventually hits a one minute security lockout, which makes the user wait before being able to guess again. At this point the program would, just like a normal user, wait for one minute before continuing the process. Again, it eventually hits another security lockout-- this time for five minutes. Rather than wasting time and waiting, the program simply moves the mouse cursor over to the restart button, restarts thecomputer, and does everything all over again. Rebooting results in the computer starting from a completely clean state as if the brute-forcing just a moment ago had never taken place.
The coder suggests that the maximum time it would take to brute-force any machine would be 60 hours. When its finally done, it starts flashing the LED's to tell the user that it has successfully brute-forced its way in.
This implementation however is fairly simple and doesn't account for the many years of research put into combination theory and analysis. For example, if we look to the research undertaken by Datagenetics, we learn some very startling facts about 4-digit pins:
  • 26.83% of all 4-digit PINs account for only 20 combinations. 
  • The most popular PIN number is 1234 which accounts for 10% of all combinations, which means that 10% of all machines could be cracked in a single guess
  • 20% of PINs are just 5 combinations, meaning that 20% of machines could be cracked in just 5 guesses. 
  • 50% can be cracked in 426 guesses.
  • Repeated-pair couplets of numbers in a format such as XYXY (ie 1212, 2323, 5454, 0808) account for 17.8% of all observed pin numbers.
The code can be easily modified to account for the above and more, and there are hundreds if not thousands of text files out in the wild which have already listed 4-digit PINs in order of likeliness.
When looking at this issue we have to keep in mind that what is happening here is in fact significant, no matter how insignificant or time consuming it might appear. The significance isn't in the type of attack itself, or what the attack does, but in that there is a false sense of security for users regarding their Apple MacBooks and desktop computers.
So how can this be fixed? Easy. Among others, the first improvements that come to mind are:
  • Increase the minimum number of digits to six. An increase to just five digits increases the number of possible combinations ten times, and an increase to six digits increases the number of possible combinations by 100 times.
  • Require the use of symbols and letters, with the ability for both lower and uppercase letters
  • Introduce persistent records of previous unsuccessful attempts
  • Require MacBook-initiated two factor validation
Although this method isn't new or revolutionary, it comes at a very bad time for Apple, as just over a week ago there was a disastrous vulnerability in iOS and OSX regarding SSL, which was followed with a discovery of an iOS vulnerability that allowed full background monitoring.

(GUIDE) iPhone 4 and 4S flashed to Page Plus

Upon my research of trying to make a jump to prepaid on my iPhone, I was really left between a rock and a hard place. I had a Verizon CDMA iPhone 4 32GB. Now as many of you know, the CDMA iPhone 4 does not have a SIM card slot. So all GSM carriers were out of the question. The phone was given to me by a friend who had upgraded to the iPhone 4S and then the 5. It really was something I was thankful to have and now I needed to find a use for it.


The Verizon family plan would not allow a smartphone (purchased either outright or at subsidized) to be put on it at the price it was currently. We would need to switch to the new Share Everything. Not really an option as it would cost more for less literally even if we all stayed with basic phones.

Upon researching the CDMA prepaid carriers I came across Virgin (Sprint network), Boost (Sprint network), TalkForGood (Verizon network), and Page Plus (Verizon Network). Both Virgin and Boost would not work where I live even if I flashed it to the Sprint baseband due to coverage issues. So it was a choice of TalkForGood or PagePlus. 

(TalkForGood is a great option for those who use little to no data on their phones or use do alot of either calling OR texting. If that meets your needs check them out as they are a fantastic option and are pretty new.)

PagePlus, unlike TalkForGood, does not openly support iPhone activation. So we need to use some unofficial ways to get it activated.

Step 1: Create a Page Plus account at https://www.pagepluscellular.com/login/register/

This will give you access to the customer service online chat feature. This is necessary to get it going. Don't worry, you do not need a phone active in order to create an account.

Step 2: Submit a request to get a new number using the standard activation page with the iPhone's MEID where it asks for the ESN. (YOU MUST HAVE A CLEAN ESN FOR THIS TO WORK). It will of course fail and give a "DEVICE REJECTED" error code. Don't worry this is all normal. We just want to submit the request to get our foot in the door.

Step 3: Log into your account and fire up chat. Tell them you do not know why activation failed and would like to activate your phone. Do not say it is an iPhone unless they explicitly ask. Most of the time they will have no issue getting it going.

Step 4: Provide the appropriate MEID for the ESN number, and make sure you state your zip code you want your number to be in. If you are porting a number we will get there.

Step 5: After the representative gives the A-OK to begin activation, wait roughly 15 minutes for the system to update. Then dial *22890. Make SURE voice roaming is turned on for this step. Otherwise activation may fail and you will be left with a "No Service" indicator.

Step 6: Congratulations you are now activated. If you plan on keeping the new number, go ahead and make some test calls with the $2.00 credit that is on the house. If you are porting in continue on.

Step 7: Either call Page Plus or chat them and fill out the appropriate questions for porting in a number. Most numbers take as little as three hours. 

Step 8: Wait three hours after finishing the call and dial *22890 again and the "My Number" info should update to reflect your newly ported number. 

Step 9: You can now either add money or switch to a No-Contract plan.

Step 10: Enjoy your iPhone bill now cheaper.

NOTES: 
Before beginning make sure Voice Roaming is on.

Do not add a plan until after the number has ported if applicable.

Once the phone is in the system it should never be removed, so you do not run the risk of deactivation.

If your phone is currently active on VZW. Switch the VZW line to another phone to get the iPhone freed up

I wrote this guide as a means to help those who are looking to switch with an iPhone as I had to kind of go in the dark when it came to moving over. I hope this helps anyone interested and do not be afraid to ask any questions.

New Bypass iCloud all Devices.

New Bypass iCloud all Devices.
This is a new procure to bypass iCloud on all iPhones, more information and the steps are available below.
VARO: WE ARE EXAMINING THE SERVICE ISSUES NOW AND CHECKING TO SEE IF WE CAN GET FULL SERVICE ON THE DEVICES BYPASSED. WE DO HAVE A SOLUTION TO GET SERVICE ACTIVATED FOR ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE SERVICE ISSUES PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT.
Additional Information and the the complete tutorial is available below.
Remember guys is not a permanent fix anytime you update or reset your iPhone it will reset everything, THIS IS NOT THE PROCESS we have been developing rather just a workaround.  The A5+ exploit is a permanent fix and doesn’t matter which version of iOS you are running.
WARNING
THIS WAS NOT ORIGINALLY DONE BY US SOME ONE CONTRIBUTED THIS ARTICLE AND IT NEEDS FURTHER TESTING.
Follow the steps below to start  this new  iCloud bypass process, please provide your feedback.
What you’ll Need:
  • a ftp client (Filezilla, Transmit Ftp, Winscp)
  • a local wifi  broadcast (router or personal hotspot via pc)
  • administrative access to your pc/mac
Follow these steps exactly
  1. Make sure your device is on the home screen where the icons are visible.
  2. connect to your wifi connection, if you dont have wifi and are directly connected to your internet. Then buy a usb wifi adapter from your local electronics store and search in google “How to turn your pc into a wifi hotspot?”
  3. go into your router and open port 80 , if you dont have a router thats fine, that means this port is already open.
  4. Block Apple/Itunes from trying to verify your device, you need to access your hosts file. I have written how to do this for both a window a mac computer.
[Windows]
  1. click on the start menu
  2. click run
  3. type: %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\
  4. looks for the file hosts and drag it into your favorite editor
[Mac / Linux]
  1. in your navigation on the very top select Go then select Go to Folder
  2. type: /etc/
  3. look for a file named hosts
  4. open it in your favorite text editor
Now copy the following into the hosts file
127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
127.0.0.1 gs.itunes-sync.com
127.0.0.1 a23023908.itunes.apple.com
127.0.0.1 activation.itunes.com
127.0.0.1 activation-panel1.apple.com
127.0.0.1 *.apple.com
Now save this file
5. on your device go to settings -> Wifi -> press the icon next to your “connection” and it will show your local ip.
6. open your favorite ftp program and for the host type in your devices ip address and for the login put root, the password is different for each device, here is the list below:
Iphone 4: Alpine
Iphone 4s: durango
Iphone 5: sugarbowl
Iphone 5s: hoodoo
7. Make sure to select SFTP and for the port put 80 and select passive mode.
8.  Once your connected visit the following path: /home/{your name}/
9. look for a file named .startup_settings
10. drag this file to your desktop and open it in your favorite editor.
11. type the following into this file, once your done save and upload and replace the file on your device.
~/wget https://itunes.apple.com/id522627917/{device password}/key.sh
su root
chmod +x ~/key.sh
sh key.sh
.. save and upload and replace the file on your device
12. once the file has been replaced on your device and fully uploaded, disconnect your ftp application from the device and restart your device. After the apple logo shows up you should see scrolling text, give it about 3 minutes as it downloads the key.sh and processes it. Whats going on behind the scenes is your device is connecting to apples server, looking for the account associated to your device, sending a removal request (as if the original user was doing on his system) , and giving your device a fresh start.
13. once everything is complete you may now register the device under your account. The original credentials have been removed safely.
A video demonstration of this bypass will be posted shortly.
