Locked out of my iphone 4 after downloading ios7?

I have an old iphone that i use only for music. Yesterday I downloaded ios7 and everything seemed to be working fine. This morning when i went to use it, it asked me for my passcode. Now I'm certain that I did not enable the passcode feature. I attempted to put in old passcodes, or the passcode i use for my current phone. No success. I then tried to restore it through itunes. A message pops up telling me i need to go into icloud on my iphone and disable the "find my iphone" feature, but obviously I can't do that because I'm locked out.

Added (1). Well i figured it out. FINALLY able to restore my phone going through recovery mode. Still not sure as to why this happened.

Yeah there's a bug in that part of the software

Same thing happened to me. Can you help me please.
same exact situation and i can't restore because i have icloud enabled, when i do try to restore its telling me that i have to unlock the phone and turn off the icloud setting and of course thats impossible as i didn't have a passcode on it.

  • Opinions about downloading IOS7? I have been putting off downloading IOS7 to my iphone because everyone I know who has downloaded it says its horrible.apparently it uses up loads of the battery life. Is that true? What are the pros and cons of IOS7 and what's your opinion of it? Should I download it or put it off for as long as possible?
  • My iphone locked me out after an itunes update, how can I uninstall it? Okay I have an Iphone 1 ( version 4.2.1) that I was using to listen to music WITHOUT a sim card in it. It would let me in anytime I wanted, and then I accidently updated Itunes and it decided to lock me out because I don't have a sim card. How can I uninstall it or where do I get a good jailbreak for it? Redsnow isn't working quite right /

  • Iphone stuck downloading ios7? I downloaded ios7 on my ipad and it was fine. I have an iPhone 4. I'm downloading it from my computer. I checked iTunes and it said error and it couldn't download ios7. ITunes doesn't even show my phone connected to my computer anymore. My phone is now on the screen where it has the apple sign and the loading bar underneath it. It won't finish loading. I know I shouldn't unplug it but what should I do?
