Is there a way to hard factory reset my iphone without passcode, itunes, or computer?
I found this iphone (5s I think) and I was wondering if there's a way to reset it w/o all that junk.
Nope. At the very least you'll need a computer with iTunes to install a fresh operating system over USB. You may still have trouble if the (ahem) rightful owner has locked it down.
It's really easy. Allow the rightful owner to do it by handing the phone in so it can be returned.
"Finders keepers" has no legal validity, but "Theft by finder" is a very well established legal principle. That iPhone is permanently useless to you and as soon as you turn it on it could well be reporting its location and even sending covert photos of you and your surroundings.
In short, it's not YOUR iPhone so you can't do anything with it except hand it in.
- Will the MAC address of my iPhone reset if I reset my iPhone to its factory settings over iTunes? I have jailbroken my device and used terminal to change my MAC address so that I could connect to school's Wi-Fi. But when I wanted to change it to its initial number, I typed in a wrong value and it just messed up my Wi-Fi, I can't connect to Wi-Fi anymore. Wonder if resetting to factory settings would help…
- Is there anyway to get past an iPhone 7 Activation lock? Is there a way to bypass or hard reset? I found this iPhone fishing with no sign of it's owner. There was no sim card in it and it's iCloud locked.
- Is there anyway I can manually reset my iPhone 5s completely without using iTunes or passcode? I need to reset my iPhone 5s and I don't have access to a computer right now and my cousin thought it was funny to change my passcode I can't just call him to get it so that's not an option. Is there ANY other way? Like any buttons is have to hold? Lol
- How to reset my iphone passcode without a computer? Just recently, i changed my iphone passcode and once i got back home from cheerleading, it wasn't working. I even spelled it as slow as i possibly could (i used the letter passcode) but it still didn't work. I tried over and over again but now it just says "iphone is disabled.connect to itunes" but i don't have a computer that i can use. I'm freaking out because if i can't get in, i'm not able to reset or get a new one.
