Remotely Erasing my Iphone5s !! Help

Hi guys ..
I had a problem with my iPhone 5s , with backing it up using iCloud , and before that my phone was working perfectly .
I couldn't figure out how to back it up again since my iCloud storage was full . so I erased everything was in the iCloud so it could take in new data.. what happened after that is the problem , the mobile couldn't recognize my sim card i think , because it kept displaying "searching ..." in the area where my carrier name should appear , .. so what I did next is :
I contacted my carrier company and there was nothing wrong with my sim
I tried my sim on another device and it worked just fine
I tried another carrier sim on my phone and the problem was still on ,, it was stuck on "searching .. "
I restarted my device many times , did reset all , and reset all networks option ,, and it didnt help
I put on airplane mode ,, and off  many times and it remains the same ..
so .. for some reason i thought about erasing my iPhone from iCloud .. and i did !!! so .. i tried to open it and this message was on ,,
"your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it , or try again in a couple of minutes . if the problem persists , contact Apple Support at apple.com/support "
so , I put my iPhone on recovery mood and connect it to iTunes , and still the same massage appear on my iPhone, and iTunes say
"We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer car "
so .. now i cant Use my iPhone at all obviously ..
and btw i have a macbook ... and i live in the middle east
So,, anyone could help me please ..

Just to be clear, where EXACTLY did you buy it? Apple does not operate retail stores in KSA. In other words, there is no "Apple Store" in KSA at all.
The iPhone is only legitimately available there from the authorized carriers and their authorized agents.
KSA seems to be overrun with gray market jailbroken and hacked (by hacked, I mean illegally unlocked to that they will work with a carrier other than that they were originally locked to) iPhones.
Removing data from iCloud would not magically stop your phone from working.
You said: " I erased everything was in the iCloud so it could take in new data".
What EXACTLY did you do?
Your phone is exhibiting the symptoms of a hacked or jailbroken phone that was reset or restored and has now either reverted to being locked to another carrier or has been completely bricked because of the hack.
If you feel you bought your phone from a legitimate source and that it has a problem, then take it to your carrier, provided your carrier is one of those authorized to carry the iPhone in KSA, and have them check it. All service is provided by the authorized carriers in KSA and the phone is still under warranty if it wasn't modified/hacked/jailbroken.

  • I misplaced my ipad, so I remotely erased it.  Then I found it, but now I cannot use all of the options in the settings.  I have restored from backup, but it still is not letting me use all functionality.  Help!

    I misplaced my ipad, so I remotely erased it.  Then I found it, but now I cannot use all of the options in the settings.  I have restored from backup, but it still is not letting me use all functionality.  Help!

    Would throwing it in Recovery mode and restoring as new clear it up?
    (same for Ipad)
    Step 1: Turn off the iPhone. To do this press and hold the power button till you see the “Slide to Power off” screen. Now slide the button to turn it off.
    In case your iPhone is stuck in an infinite loop and the previous option is unavailable, press and hold the Power and Home button till the screen goes off. Remember to leave both the buttons as soon as the screen goes off and before the Apple logo appears again.
    Step 2: Connect the iPhone’s USB cable to your computer but not to your iPhone yet.
    Step 3: Now hold down the Home button and while you are holding it connect the USB cable. Keep holding the Home button till you see the Connect to iTunes screen on your iPhone(Screenshot shown below). iTunes will show an alert saying a device in recovery mode has been detected.
    Here’s what your iPhone screen will look like once its in the iPhone Recovery Mode.

    I lost my IPhone 4S this morning and want to increase my cloud storage so I can back it up when it finds a signal and then remotely erase it...I'm assuming the worst that whoever finds is will not call me or want to return the phone. I went to icloud but it only govers me options to increase storage from my iPhone or a synced computer (mac or PC).

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer

    Do you mean Erase Mode through Find my iPhone? If so, there is no way to stop it. When it is finished you will need to restore your device using your latest backup.

  • 5.3 gigs of saved messages that I can't erase ? Need Help to Erase ?

    5.3 gigs of saved messages that I can't erase ? Need Help to Erase ?

    This is a know bug in how iOS is reporting your storage usage.  It is avtually an artifact from iOS 6 or possibly even iOS 5.  For now, the only way to get it to report correctly is to restore your device as "new" and re-install all your applications manually.  If you try to restore from a backup, the corrupt information will be restored along with the "good" information.
    From what I recall, it has somethign to do wth the way iOS handles deleting attached images which were received via iMessage.  Something about the message is deleted, but the image is orphaned, and is no longer tied to the message, so you can't view it.  You might be able to view the images via the "search" capabilities, but I don'r know what that would do for you.

  • ICloud Remote Erase

    I was having some problems with my iPod, and long story short: I erased it via iCloud. My iPod is now displaying a black screen with the white loading wheen in the middle. How long can I expect this to go on? And is there any way I can shorten the time it will take? If someone could just explain to me how the remote erase process works that would be great as well.

    Try placing it in recovery mode with one of these programs and then try a restore

    Can I remotely erase my iphone via icloud after the wireless service is suspended?

    As AppleClubSuport states, it needs a data connection to the internet.  If your wireless service is suspended, it will have to be connected to wifi for the remote wipe command to be executed.

  • External HD won't work and cannot repair or erase? please help!!

    Hello, I brought a 1 TB WD external hard drive and formatted it to use with both my mac and windows. At first it was working perfectly but after around 1-2 weeks it suddenly stopped. Now it doesn't show up on a mac or windows. I can see it on my disk utility (mac) but when I try to repair it it says repair failed and when I tried to erase it to start again it said  'disk erase failed with the error: POSIX reports:the operation couldn't be completed input/output error' please say in just being an idiot and it can be resolved easily. Thank you in advance for any help given :)

    only 2 possibilities, your HD is dead/ corrupt
    OR you have a very common failure called a SATA bridge card failure.
    read all about same here:
    Your dead external hard drive is likely fine! Great hope for your 'faulty' external HD
    sounds like you have  SATA card failure , read above link
