My iPhone X has been hacked is my phone useless now?

My ex stole my Apple ID password and security questions and has changed them. On top of that, she has locked my apps such as my calendar and notes. I can't access nothing without putting the Apple ID PW in. Is my phone no good now? Do I have to buy another?

You need to get back into your account somehow. Afaik, even resetting the phone to factory settings will keep it locked as long as it is associated with the apple ID.

The first thing I'd try to do is walk into an Apple Store and ask the "geniuses" there.

Chris has the correct answer. Either take it to an apple store or call their help line and they will walk you through a reset. If you own the phone and can prove it, they will help you. If you don't, you're screwed.

Go to the Apple Store and try to recover your Apple ID.

If you can't, you'll have to create a new Apple ID, meaning you will have lost all your data but you'll be able to use the phone.

Be sure you use a very strong password, and never ever ever ever share it with anyone.

  • Is an iPhone useless without a data plan that has internet? I was planning on buying an unlocked iPhone from Craigslist and just inserting my sim card in but i would like to know whether it's worth it or not. I will have access to the internet (through wi-fi) for the iPhone, just not a data plan that includes internet. i want an iPhone because my current phone is crapping out on me and i need a new music device.

  • I'm worried that my iPhone has been hacked? I just recently got an android phone, but still have my iPhone 5c (but has no service, so it's basically an iPod touch). It's been off in a drawer for about a month, and I've recently turned it on. I was going through my photo album and several bunches of photos (my photos) say that they were taken in Qinghai, China and El Bayadh, Algeria, both of which I've never been to. Should this be a concern? If so, what should I do?
  • How to know if your iphone has been hacked? I hear all you need is a spy app from Claudia. But can that really get into my iphone? Are there any signs that could tell me I've been hacked?
