IPhone 4 :: Way To Force A Factory Reset If Forgot Passcode To Old Device?
Jun 19, 2014
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...
I have the iPhone 4S, and have only had it 5 days. Two days ago, I accidently reset my passcode and did not write it down. I have no idea what the passcode is, and have tried so many times that i have totally enabled my phone, and it says connect to iTunes to take care of it but i have no idea how.
I set a passcode to my iphone 4s but do not remember it. My phone is NOT locked but is there a way to reset the passcode with out resetting the whole phone?
I've forgot the screenlock pin of my Sony Xperia Z2, the smartphone is stock so i don't have the bootloader unlocked so i can't go in recovery mode.
From Sony PC Companion i can't do nothing because i must unlock the phone.
From Flashtool i can't do nothing because i have USB Debug Mode set to OFF and i can't enable it if i can't unlock the smartphone. Otherwise if I can set the phone in Flashmode or Fastboot Mode.
i restored the back up of phone when it load, there was no service and it doesn't show carrier.  i reset my phone(reset factory), when i insert sim card, it says: "device unknown, and that I have to contact an apple store.."
I've tried to remember/guess the password without success and now must wait one hour between tries. One thread suggested connecting the iPhone to iTunes on the PC that I used to originally sync this phone, and then "reset" the iPhone. But, when I attempt to connect the iPhone to iTunes, I get the following error message: "iTunes could not connect the iPhone because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." Is there another method?
I forgot my passcode and disabled my phone. My computer crashed and I have no access to itunes for at least 4 days. How can I factory reset my phone without a computer so I can use it again?

I forgot my passcode to I decided to sync my iPhone 5s to the computer and when I did a message came up saying "Do you want the computer to access information on (my phone name)?" I clicked continue and it says "To allow access, please respond on your iPhone" Except,to do that I would need my passcode to unlock my phone,which I forgot.What should I do?
I don't want to take my iPhone to the apple store cause they have been ripping me off a lot lately and it cost a lot of money just to do one thing. I already tried factory resetting twice to no avail.
I need to restore my phone and update iTunes. I think I need to take restrictions off but I forgot passcode.I can't even restore the phone to factory settings without entering passcode. How can I do this?My phone has so many capabilities but I cannot utilize them
I just forgot the lockscreen passcode of my iPhone 5S. However, the thing is a bit different from my side as I just wiped my hard disk and no backup on the computer. Â I also don't want to lost any data during the process.
My N97 is updated to the latest. I go to MENU-->>APPLICATIONS-->>SW UPDATE, it scans for updates and shows 'ALL APPLICATIONS ARE UPTODATE'. Now then, if i reset the device with a *#7370#, will it delete these updates as well? Not that i intend to reset my device, just curious world laughs with you. Cry, and the world laughs louder.
I installed the lollipop update and now get constant "unfortunately, the system UI has failed. This happens for a variety of reasons and has rendered my phone pretty much useless for anything other than making a phone call. Most of the other accessories, apps and program either only have limited functionality or are unstable and shut down.
So, What is the best method/process to reset my phone to pre-5.0 and/or to reinstall 5.0
I've been trying to reset my phone using the recovery mode method, but once i hit restore it asks me whether i want to restore and update or cancel, once i hit restore and update it begins updating until the phone exits recovery mode and cancels the process, how can i restore my phone succesfully without updating or exiting recovery mode?
I have purchased a 2nd hand Samsung galaxy s5 online. it wont et me access the phone as it is locked due to an abnormal factory reset and is requesting a Samsung account id and log in - clearly I don't have one and it appears it needs to be the previous owners. Is there a way around this in order to access the phone?
