How to manually lock iPhone

Is there a way to manually lock iphone4 rather than wait for auto lock?

Hi,
If you have a passcode lock on and it is set to 'take effect immediately' press the sleep/wake button which will lock the phone and turn the screen off.
Hope this helps!

How do I lock iPhone-miniiPad-mac- from distance

How do I lock my mac-iPhone-miniiPad from a distance.
I've not been able to figure that out.
There's in iCloud a possibility to "find" all these things from a distance, but how can you lock them?
Anybody know?

I will only answer here, not to the email address you gave. Also not good to give serialnumbers, imeinumbers here....
The phone was probably not unlocked. Or maybe hacked and it will be locked again after an update.
If the phone was not unlocked officially, you have to go to the provider in the UK, where it was used before, because only the provider-it-was-locked-to, can unlock it.
If it was jailbroken/hacked I do not know what to do.

How to unlock locked iphone

forgot iphone password and cannot unlock phone now

LOST PASSCODE
You should be able to remove the passcode by restoring the device. Do the following:
Connect the device to the computer to which you normally sync;
Open iTunes (Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes" in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 );
Right-click the device in the left column of iTunes and select Back up (read this article on how to restore http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 );
When the backup is complete, select Restore;
Whenever finished, restore from your most recent backup.
To restore read the restore section in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If that doesn’t work you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

How to manually lock and unlock your phone

I just got the samsung galaxy stratosphere two. I am having the problem where when I put it in my pocket it isn't locked at it is hitting buttons on its own. I have gone through all the settings and can't seem to figure out a quick and easy way to lock the screen before i put it in my pocket so that this doesn't happen, and then unlock it when i'm ready to use it again.

@Kaplan20121
Congratulations on the new phone! The following weeks after activating a new device are always exciting. To learn about the new features and tools that your new phone possesses is a great time.
To set a lock on your phone is crucial no only to ensure that your phone doesn't begin to press random buttons but for security. To set a lock for your phone please follow these instructions: Settings > Security> Screen Lock. There are various options for locking your screen. If you would like a simple lock screen option, swipe is great. I'm sure you will find this beneficial for future use.

Does Apple have a way to help me open the device?
No
It may be possible to check by iccd / imei?
No
According to historical use?
No
According to my daughter's appleid used device?
No.
The only way to activate the phone is with the proper Apple ID and password. That is the only way.

touchscreen is unresponse and cant back up

Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

How do you lock the screen on iphone 4?

How do you lock the screen on iphone 4 while on a call? I mute calls, activate face time and I have even called someone by accident during a call. I know there has to be a way to fix this. Please HELP!

It locks automatically when you hold it to your head.
If it fails to do this, then remove the case and see if it solves it.
If it does not, then do the basics - restart, reset, restore.
If that does not solve it, then make an appointment at the genius bar.

I got an iphone from Hong Kong which is locked one. Can anyone explain me what does a locked iphone means. How do I use it in India now, with my own sim card. How do I unlock it???

I got an iphone from Hong Kong which is locked one. Can anyone explain me what does a locked iphone means. How do I use it in India now, with my own sim card. How do I unlock it???

If your iPhone is locked to a wireless provider, only that wireless provider
can unlock it. Contact the wireless provider in Hong Kong to see if they
offer unlocking and if you qualify.
If your iPhone is locked to an AppleID that you do not know, return it for
a refund as it is useless. Only the person whose AppleID was used for
activation can remove the lock. There is no workaround for Activation Lock.
If neither of the above is what you are facing, provide more detail so someone
may offer a solution.

How can I lock out my iCloud? Because of forget my old password and I have do a new Apple ID but when wan to log out my iCloud it call me to logout find my iphone but already forget the password . Have any solution ?

How can I lock out my iCloud?
Because of forget my old password I have create a new Apple ID
But when I wan to log out my iCloud,it call me to logout Find My iPhone.
I had already forget the password that why I create a new Apple ID.
Have any solution for problem like this ?

Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

How do I find the Serial number of a locked iphone?

How do I find the Serial number of a locked iphone?

Thanks but unfortunately I don't have any of those items to do that. Just have the phone. We are a third party support provider for Pharma companies and they send in their HW when users leave the company or are let go. This particular client deployed this device outside of our company at some point so we did not have the luxury of recording that info when deployed. We also cannot reach the original user to obtain the passcode. All we need is the serial number but need a way to access that on the phone without the passcode and without resetting or restoring the phones IOS.

How can i lock my iphone in a way that i won't be able to receive any incoming call nor retreive its information?

How can i lock my iphone in a way that i won't be able to receive any incoming call nor retreive its information?

In the phrase " i wanna be able to reveive the call without being able to answer nor see who is calling" what do you mean by able to receive the call but not be able to answer it or see who is calling?
I do not understanhow you can receive the call but not be able to answer or seee who called. If you do not answer it how can you receive it?
