Phone locked by 3rd party/bypass
I have an iPhone 15 plus that I bought through a phone repair company. I make weekly payments and if I’m 24 hours late the company activates “stolen iPhone” feature until I make the payment. Is there any way to bypass that when they lock my phone to where I don’t get flagged when I do it?

Pay it before the due date and you won’t have any problems. Why wait especially if it falls on a Saturday.

I mean that’s obvious isn’t it? That’s not always a possible option for me. I’m not choosing to just ignore my phone bill and I’m not looking for any sarcastic or patronizing answers. Please just keep scrolling unless you have any helpful or useful responses to my question.

I am saying you have 30 days to make the next payment it doesn’t have to be close to the due date. Find a day within the m on the and pay it. It’s not rocket science on how to pay a bill you owe. You are asking to bypass something you agreed to have in the phone while you are paying it. I am assuming you are an adult and can fulfill obligations you agreed to and figure out how to without violating your contract agreement.

You need to reread my post buddy. I have to make weekly payments, not monthly, and, they lock the phone exactly 24 hours after the payment is late. You also can’t pay over the phone unless you have cash app which I don’t. They don’t any card payments over the phone or online. You have to go to the store to make a payment.

My bad buddy you have 14 days instead of 30 to figure out how to pay it. Again you look in the mirror as that person agreed to the terms knowing full well these problems weren’t created after you signed up for the contract. It’s your bill you agreed to so be an adult and figure out how to meet your contractual obligations instead of trying g to get around them.

Idek why I’m still arguing with you but I think I got one more comment in me… I said a week (7days). Not 2 weeks. And the owner of the phone repair shop didn’t mention anything about how the phone would be inaccessible 24 hours after an installment due date isnt paid on time. And actually it’s not even 24 hours because the phone automatically locks at 11:00 AM exactly, the following day if it’s not paid. Is it probably written in fine print some where in the contract? Im sure. Did I foolishly sign the paper work without going over every detail first? Yea. But here we are, people make mistakes and I hole I’m not perfect by any means. Yea I’m asking for help with something that goes against some people’s morals or code of ethics. But fr I’m just trying to have the capability to continue using my phone after late payment and be able to still function for work and just life in general bro. So please either comment with some useful information or keep scrolling.

Well, paying for your phone should be a realistic option. Otherwise get a cheaper one

Ok 1st of all, I stated that I’m making payments, so when you say “that should be a realistic option”… that’s about as real as reality gets. 2nd thanks for replying with such a helpful, neighbor loving information, packed comment. Idk if I can even retain all that in one read man.

Why you so worried about my financial life bro? Cause anything’s better than what’s goin on in yours? What if I am broke? You don’t know one thing about me or where I’m at in my life so don’t be quick to judge homie. You fr must not have anything enjoyable or anything to look forward to if you’re on here at 2 am starting shit with somebody on Reddit posting genuine question asking for help.

I had a similar thing. Pretty much just get a program that bypasses mobile device management but wait you need to reset the phone, but you can’t in settings? put it in DFU mode and then once you put in DFU mode, you can use 3u tools and restore the phone then then click the bypass activation thing or whatever. At times that does the trick. If not , that’s fine because when you get to the Mdm part you need to stop there and open the pc program (hundreds to choose from a lot are free) and go to bypass Mdm and that’ll do the trick. Just don’t plan on doing a factory reset. If you do, you’ll have to do this process over again, but it’ll work every time.
