I am trying to reset my brother's iPhone that he no longer uses. He has upgraded to the iPhone 4. I do not know his passcode. I am unable to reach him to retrieve the passcode. How would I go about resetting the phone? When I try to reset it by holding the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons, the phone's screen just flashes at me. It does that as well when I try to shut it off.

How can i reset the passcode of my Iphone
Info:iPhone 4S
From browsing the Internet I see a lot of people trying to bypass the iPhone passcode lock. I have a similar but I think unique situation. I had a passcode set on my phone. I couldnt sleep two nights ago and vaguely remember playing with my phone settings. The next morning I went to use my phone and my passcode wouldnt work. With a sinking feeling I remember seeing passcode settings.
Needless to say I entered codes until I got the Connect to Itunes prompt.
Thinking iTune stored multiple backups, I connected my phone and made a backup not realizing I just erased the one from the prior week. So now I can connect to iTunes, tell it to restore, get the Cannot Restore theres a Passcode message, disconnect the cable, reconnect the cable, it syncs for a few seconds, then have access to the Passcode screen for another 10 tries until it locks again and I have to repeat this.
I dont want to reset and lose my data. In iTunes I can see my apps, music and movies. Is there a way iTunes can reset the passcode? I dont want to do the reset/restore for two reasons: 1) everthing I've read says I lose app data if I do that and 2) since I backed up after locking does that restore the forgotten passcode too so I end up in the same boat?

I have been using the IPCU for a while now, however we are having more and more iPhones and iPads in the business and we are finding it more difficult to manage. To start with I enable a few security features, ie a passcode that is 6 digits and expires after 30 days. This is set to time out after 5 minutes and also to come into force if the device is switched off. Ok so that doesnt sound too difficult and we have overcome the issue (at our cost) with iPads and iPhones being setup at different times as we need to get the passcodes in synch.
My real problem (well two actually) is that if the person for whatever reason forgets their passcode their seems to be no way of resetting it over the air or with an admin override facility. That mean that they either have to keep guessing until they wipe the device or bring it to HQ to resolve. The second problem is that we are using EAS (exchange active synch) which is great and works well but when the passwords expire on their AD account the push notification then fires up the wrong password notification box and locks out their AD account. I know the easiest way is to not expire passwords but this is a legal requirement.

I have 4 iphone 5c's and found an old iPhone 4 (not s) that I don't use anymore and wanted to give it to my son to use as a fancy ipod but I have forgotten the passcode for it and haven't synced with my new macbook pro. Is there an application or way to force a factory reset bypassing the passcode? All his sisters and brothers have iphones and he feels left out The device in question has been used on my apple account in the past, I just don't know how to get around the passcode thing...

Changed my passcode lock from letters back to numbers. I know what numbers i picked for the lock but the phone won't let me in! Tried a number of combinations but none worked! Has it ever happened that an iPhone won't let you in with the correct passcode? Does it usually malfunction when you switch back to numbers? And most importantly - is the only solutioin to reset the phone???

I read on the front page how others were having the proximity issue like I was and that if you did a reset of settings then it could fox it. So I went ahead and did that. I went in and started changing all my settings back and I realized that the only option I had for my passcode was to require it immediately and not after 5 min like I usually do. I've done some searching and saw that a google or exchange account could cause this. But I only have mobile me.So that can't be it. The only other option I've seen is to do a complete restore.Whig I'd really like to stay away from. Does anyone have any ideas?

My sister-in-law received a new iPhone 3GS from a co-worker who already had one. She gave it to me. It has never been activated or anything. The message on the screen says, "iPhone is disabled. Try again in 22,168,144 minutes".... WHAT? It will only make emergency calls. I only wanted it for my kid to use it as an iPod, and to transfer Aps from my iTunes that I use for my own iPhone 4G. Is there any way to gain access, without having AT&T set it up as a phone?
