Unlock an iPhone and I don't know the passcode?

My friend stole an iPhone from a random stranger when he was at the mall… He just pulled it straight out of the person's pocket and sold it to me for $50… I tried to restore it already but after I do, it says the iPhone can't be found so nothing happens! I don't know what to do now, and there's no other way to unlock it other than figuring out the passcode or jailbreaking it, but I don't know who's iPhone it is so there's no way I'd even be able to figure out the passcode and I don't want to jailbreak it either… I also don't want to take it to a store… Any help please?

First off your friend shouldn't have stole the phone and sold it to you and you shouldnt be a thiefs friend but there's no other way to get it unlocked without going to a store so sorry

  • I want to reset my iPhone, but don't know the restriction passcode? My iPhone was stolen recently, and so my friend gave me their old iPhone. I want to reset it to factory settings to get rid of all their stuff, then sync it to my iTunes to put my stuff on it. However they have a restriction passcode on the reset option, and they can't remember it. How can I reset my phone without knowing the password?
