[iOS] Delete iCloud Account without entering password | Turn off Find My Iphone without entering password

This post should be treat as educational purpose only.

If you are using iCloud and have the Find My Iphone turned on, you must already know that once you enable it, whenever you want to disable Find My Iphone for whatever reason, you must supply a password - your iCloud password or Apple ID password that is used for iCloud.

But according to Youtuber, Miguel Alvarado, there is actually a way to bypass entering the password when the Find My Iphone wants to be removed or iCloud account wants to be removed.

The method is simply, to disable Find My Iphone and click on Delete Account at the same time, causing the interface to -something like get confused- prompting both iCloud password and confirmation to delete the account.
When that happen - interface got confused- switch off the phone and switch it back on. Then go to iCloud settings again, to see that Find My Iphone is turned off already - YES without supplying a password - and click delete the account one more time to really delete the iCloud account.
