How can i activate my iphone 4 if previous owner does not remember the id and password

Hi,
I got an iphone 4 from my brother in US,phone was officially unlocked after the expiry of contract,i used it for sometime
when my brother tried to remove it from his iclod id the phone is asking to reactivate and needs username and id of the previous owner i.e my brother but we have tried all the ids and passwords and are not working
Please suggest a solution

Your brother has to remember his Apple ID and password...which will be the same as the iCloud account uses. To activate, you can also have your brother login to his iCloud account and if the iPhone is listed, send an erase signal. That will completely erase his information and you can enter your own.

Please explain further.
You don't need an AppleID to access an iTunes library. An iTunes library is stored on your computer.
Default location is /Music/iTunes/ folder.

The best way is to let the battery die. Or you can reset the phone settings which restarts everything.

HT201263 how can i restart an iphone 5 without previous owner apple id?

No. You bought a nice paper weight. Unless you can get ahold of the previous owner, then phone is worthless to you.

If my most recent back up was using icloud, how can i restore my iphone to its previous back up, not the icloud one?

I recently got a new iphone from the apple store and i forgot to back up before getting one, so i backed up on the icloud for the first time, i had alot of photos ect so i chose to not back them up to save time when i was with my genius guy. But now all my photos are gone, obviously. But im just wondering if i could restore my iphone to the previous back up i had on my mac. Is this possible? I just want my photo stream back !
Thanks

If you are in the US then you should be able to download some or all of your films : re-downloading. If you are not in the US then have you not got them on your computer's iTunes and/or on a backup ?

How can I change my security questions? But I do not know the email or password to the email that it says it sends the changing thing to? Please help.

When I try to buy an app it ask for these questions and I thought I knew the answer but I guess not. So it said forgot answer ? Send email to [email protected] and that email doesn't even existed is what I just found out today. So I would really love if there was a possibility that I can change my forget question email or do I have to change my whole Apple ID and if I do. How do I get the money from my current Apple ID to my new account?

I would advise to call AppleCare and have them take a further look in to the matter.

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller

You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

If your phone was previously hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's re-locked to the original carrier. The phone will now activate and operate only with that original carrier.

Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.
