IPhone is disabled, won't restore with iTunes. How to completely wipe it?
My friend bought me this iPhone 5S he got. It looks brand new in a box with everything.
I can't get into because there's a passcode on it, he doesn't know the passcode.
The front screen says "iPhone is disabled connect to iTunes".
I connect to iTunes and a message pops up "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
It's disabled, I can't enter a passcode even if I wanted too.
I've tried restoring it, holding the buttons down until the iTunes logo pops up.
I've tried it in recovery mode.
I've tried the emergency call trick, NOTHING is working!
Seriously, how can I get in? How to completely wipe it clean? I can't sync it with any computer.
It might be a stolen device. Ask your friend to go with you to the place where he/she got the phone from. And mention your problem
Its not stolen its my phone i forgot my passcode
