If I recall you cannot, I think Apple has the keys to your iCloud account so its always available for unlock (iCloud not the phone itself) this is how they provide access to authorities when they have a warrant. This was the case a few years ago, it might have changed since.
- madeofpalk 8y agoTo be clear, they provide access to the phone backup, but not the phone itself. In most cases though, a phone backup is an identical substitute for the phone itself.
- xvector 8y agoI believe this is the case for unencrypted iCloud backups. If you put a password on your iCloud backup, I'm not sure they can do that (as then it becomes E_iCloud(E_yourPwd(backup)) - doesn't look like they could do much more here than recover the user-encrypted backup). Anyone care to confirm?
