Please Note:
Your iOS device will be jailbroken before bypassing iCloud Activation Lock.
After unlocking, the device is available for use, except for making phone calls, using cellular data, FaceTime and iMessage. Also, you’re unable to log into iCloud with a new Apple ID from Settings on your device, or use your device with iTunes.
After Activation Lock gets removed, please don’t reset or update your device, flash firmware of your device, or restart devices that are running iOS 12.4.7 and iOS 18 or above. Otherwise, it will be locked again. But you can still re-unlock it before your plan expires.
