What happens if pass code is entered wrong on iPhone?
I need to put a pass code lock on my phone so my son can't get on my phone but when the pass code is entered wrong so many times it brings up the emergency slide. What will happen if he slides it?
Too many tries will disable the phone.
All it can do is make emergency 911 calls.
It asks you again. After 3 tries it stops you for five minutes, and every time you make 3 wrong attempts the time increases on until 8 hours. After around 12-16 tries the phone permanently disables and will have to be restored via recovery mode. Recovery mode erases E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G on the phone.
Might as well give you the article now considering since you are giving it to a child they will eventually do it http://support.apple.com/.../kb/HT1808.
