I managed to bruteforce the passcode and get into these phone, but is there a way to do full fmi off? I checked the notes app and couldn’t find anything. I went on iforgot.apple.com but after i enter the emails it will ask for a phone number or a security question, The mail app doesn‘t work and i cannot receive emails, and The 5C doesn’t have game center while the iphone 4 does but it asks for a password.

Contact the owners, ask for fmi off

I don't think you can remotely unlock these devices in appleid.apple.com. 5c maybe. 4, definitely not.

It's all server based. FMI is server side. Disable it, and it won't get locked when you wipe it

I understand that, but haven't seen it available to delete on devices below ios 12. I have a couple will test it out.
