I buy a 8+ from someone online and they calm to have the info to unlock it but never gave it to me it supposed to be a gift for Christmas… So, I want to know if I take out the old motherboard and put in a new one to unlock it and activate it before next week would EVERYTHING BE remove n be a brand new phone?? Thanx
Replacing the logic board is, essentially, replacing the phone. Everything is stored on the logic board (data, locks…everything) so if you put a new logic board in, you have a new phone :>).
There is a better way, plug it into iTunes and you can reset the phone to factory settings. If that doesn’t work I believe if you get the password wrong enough times it automatically resets. Hope this helps!
