I lost my iphone in bus... internet not connected... how do i erase data... URGENT !!

hi... i lost my iphone and i coudlnt find a way to erase the data without internet... have an account on mobileme and find my iphone but internet is not switched on in my iphone... is there any other way to erase all the data.....

Nobody can get access to your phone from this end.  Not Apple for sure.  Your service carrier may block access to actual phone use when you contact them, but the data will still be there. Did you have a password set on it?  If you did, it will automatically lock after a certain number of tries and will have to be completely reset to use again.  Frankly, if it was stolen and there is a password it is likely the thief will just recover the whole phone, wiping your information from it.
Interesting articles on blocking future use of stolen phones (but doesn't block access of existing data stored on phone):

    Internet not connecting after ios 7.0.2 update on iphone 5

    Hi there PompasJr,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Camera isn't functioning
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

  • I lost my iPhone. i got a new one, how can i back up all the contacts i had in the old one (iPhone 4S).

    i lost my iPhone. i got a new one, how can i back up all the contacts i had in the old one (iPhone 4S). When i go to Itunes it start as a new iphone.

    Contacts are not a part of back up.
    Contacts are sync with a compatible programme on your computer depending on your operating system (Windows or Mac). For example, Microsoft Outlook (for both Windows and Mac), Windows Contacts (for Windows) and Addressbook (for Mac).
    Or contacts are also backed up in iCloud (depending if you chose to do so).
    So, sync back the contacts from any of these programmes. If you have not made a backup of your contacts in any of these progammes, then they are gone.

  • Photosmart 6525 Internet Not Connected about 3 minutes after turning on

    I bought a Photosmart 6525 on 11/20/2012 and have been trying ever since to get it to work wirelessly.  There are hundreds of posts in HP forums about this problem,  as well as in Windows 7 and Netgear forums.  I've tried everything I could find in all of the forums but I can't fix this problem.  This printer definitely needs a firmware update to fix it!  The printer always loses its internet connection about 3 minutes after turning the power on.  My workaround is a USB connection to my Laptop and selecting the Wireless Direct Connection on my iPad for AirPrint.  AirPrint only works from my iPad over my normal Wi-Fi network during the first few minutes after the printer is turned on.  After that, it will only work over the Wireless Direct Connection and I have to turn off the printer's 802.11 wireless OFF or the iPad can't find an AirPrint printer.  That's because the printer status is "Internet Not Connected" to the 802.11 network.  But that status doesn't show on the printer's display...you have to print out a Network Configuration to see that the printer has lost the internet connection.  My workaround gets me by for now but the situation is certainly not satisfactory.   I don't have a wireless printer that works wirelessly even though I just bought one.  Also, iPad printing is klutzy since I can't just print from the iPad as I should be able to over my normal Home Wi-Fi network.  Instead I have to select the Network Name for the Wireless Direct Connection, then print and then go back to my Home Wi-Fi network.  I have four other devices that connect to my Home Wi-Fi network without losing their internet connection and this printer should be able to do so as well!  That's why I cannot believe it's a problem with Windows 7 or my Netgear router.  I believe the problem is the firwmare in this printer (and probably all Photosmart 6520 series wireless printers).  Mine has Firmware Revision PKM2CN1230AR.

    Let's try this.  Turn off all wireless security for a test.  Connect with no security to see if it can stay connected.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
