Is it possible for iphone 4s-io7- to show up offline in icloud list of devices even if thief erased iphone(found pssrd) or turned off fmi?

Very curious since its still showing offline in icloud list of devices. Would remote wipe work when the iphone is connected to intunes for restore or dfu? Answers appreciated.

No, it means you have no information about your phone.
If you enabled Find my iPhone that also enabled Activation Lock. Even if the thief guessed your passcode they still could not disable Find my iPhone without knowing your Apple ID and password. The thief also only gets a limited number of tries to guess your passcode. If you had enabled "erase after 10 failed attempts" then the limit is 10. If you had not then after 10 or so the thief would have to wait before trying more, an the wait would get progressively longer with each failed attempt. So unless you have a really poor choice of passcodes (1111, 1234, etc) your content is reasonably safe.

    Hello eman.jafri,
    If the phone will not turn on at all, I would reset the device with this process:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    It is possible you may have to put the device in recovery mode and restore it with iTunes.

  • I need to transfer data from my old iphone to my new iphone and I cannot turn off Find my iphone

    I need to transfer data from my old iphone to my new iphone and I cannot turn off Find my iphone as my icloud password is incorrect.  I have reset this several times and also cleared cookies history etc.  none of the above makes a difference.  Any ideas?

    The ONLY thing you can do to turn off Find My iPhone is to have the correct password. There is no way around it. You can get help with the password: If you forgot your Apple ID password
    If none of those methods are possible: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

  • My iphone 4s automatically getting turned off (blank black screen) and not getting started until full battery discharge, after updating to ios 8.0.1

    My iphone 4s automatically getting turned off (blank black screen) and not getting started until full battery discharge. Even on long pressing power button - screen doesn't showing anything - not even "needs charging logo".
    This is happening only since I have updated to new ios version (ios 8.1).
    Is there anyone facing similar issue?? Any suggestion?!?

    Hi jayla_mora, 
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your iPhone screen is going blank and not responding.

  • The iPhone I got yesterday turned off and will not turn back on.

    The iPhone I got yesterday turned off and will not turn back on.

    Is it charged? If so try a reset by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 20 seconds (maybe longer) until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.  Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.  If it's not charged, charge it via a wall socket for a least 30 minutes then try the reset again.

  • Is there an App for the iPad that will show my GPS position on a world map, even if I'm at sea?

    GPS will show your position anywhere if your device has unobstructed view of the GPS satellites. The issue is that you must find a maps/charts that include all areas of the sea.
    There is no mobile data connection required to use GPS on land or sea. Once again your issue is the availability of downloadable maps/charts for the areas you will be traveling.
    Sorry, but you can't install an app like NAVIGON on an iPad without 3G cellular data connection:
    copied from NAVIGON app:
    ...can be installed on any iPhone3GS, iPhone4, iPhone4S, iPhone5 or iPad device (the navigation function is only available on the iPad WiFi+3G)
    Can I navigate with my mobile phone?
    Answer:In principle yes. For mobile phones there are both Onboardnavigation solutions and Offboardnavigation solutions.
    The following requirements must be fulfilled:
    •     The software must support the mobile phone. NAVIGON software
          always comes with a compatibility list. The software is guaranteed
          to work only for the mobile phones on this list.
    •     The mobile phone must have a GPS receiver. Many new mobile
           phones come with a built-in GPS receiver. Otherwise you can use
           an external GPS receiver which is connected to the mobile phone
           by cable or Bluetooth.
    •     It should be noted that an offboard solution incurs costs for using
          the mobile phone network to communicate with the provider's server.
