Okay before anyone bashed me for probably common knowledge, I am a windows fanatic along with android phones. I have never had an iphone but I recently got one from a friend because my galaxy broke. The phone is locked with an apple id and password that he does not know. Is there anyway around this lock? Obviously it is security for broken phones, but would maybe jailbreaking it work or some other kind of unlock?

That is iCloud activation locked. There is no way around it, the phone is pretty much useless unless your friend remembers the password then goes to his iCloud account and deletes the phone from iClould.

Ya I have tried to get around these tons of times nothing has worked for me yet. I don't think there's anyway around it. I would try apple support though if he can prove it's his device they can probably help you out

You're out of luck. There's no way around an iCloud Activation Lock unless the previous owner remembers the password.
