Hello, guys. Welcome to AppGeeker Channel. Well, unfortunately, you forgot iPhone passcode
or your iPhone is disabled. This video is about a tutorial of how to unlock your iPhone.
Why is your iPhone stuck on disabled screen? Obviously, the screen appears after too many
incorrect passcode attempts. And, if you enter the wrong passcode 5 times or more to the
iPhone, like this, the screen should be locked, saying iPhone is disabled. So I’m going
to show you two ways to unlock the iPhone and fix iPhone is disabled message. One is
using the efficient iPhone Unlocker, and another method is to fix with iTunes or Finder.
Before the process, I should clarify one thing that you have to know. Fixing a disabled iPhone
is a restoring process. It would erase all data and settings on your phone and if you
don’t have a backup in place, you cannot restore data. This is why always keeping an
iTunes backup or an iCloud backup is important. Now let’s get started.
The first method is to use iPhone Unlocker from appgeeker.com. It’s a smart, handy
tool that is worth trying if your iPhone gets stuck on disabled screen. We have a download
link in the Description below. It uses the advanced techniques to unlock the device by
detecting it and erasing passcode in a quick manner. It’s easy to use, and you just need
a Mac or PC, an original USB lightning cable and a stable internet connection on your computer.
After you installed the software, open it. Click Wipe Passcode, and click Start button.
Then grab the USB cable to connect your iPhone to the computer. Most often, the software
detects the device in a few seconds. If not, you need to click the “Device connected
but not recognized” link and follow the onscreen instructions to put your iPhone into
recovery mode using button combination. Keep in mind that the button sequence is varied
from the device model. It’s not difficult to do that and we have a link in the card
above and in the description below. Once your iPhone is connected successfully,
select the information of your iPhone from the drop-down menu. Then click Start button.
The software will download the latest version of your locked iPhone. This takes some time
to finish depending on your internet speed. So we’ll fast-forward the video here.
When that’s done, confirm the iPhone unlocking process. Enter “0000” in the box and click
Unlock button. You can monitor the process through the progress bar on the software screen.
We’ll also fast-forward the video. Now your iPhone will reboot with a welcome
screen. Set up the device – select your language, country, WiFi; In the App & Data
screen, choose Restore from iTunes Backup or Restore from iCloud Backup in order to
restore your iPhone data to the state before you forgot the iPhone passcode.
The second method you can take when iPhone is stuck on disabled screen is restore your
iPhone via iTunes or Finder. Of course, this will erase your data, and it’s not possible
to get back the files unless you have a backup. To unlock iPhone, your need to put the device
into DFU mode or recovery mode. In this video, I’ll show you the recovery mode restore
process. If you’d like to enter DFU mode, check out our video guide in the card above
and in the description below. The first thing is to make sure you have the
latest version of iTunes installed on your Mac or PC. If you’re using macOS Catalina
or later, you have to use Finder to complete the whole process. Now turn off your iPhone
with the locked screen. I have an iPhone 6s, so I press and hold the Power button until
the slider appears, then drag the slider to power it off. Next hold down Home button and
connect it to the computer using the original USB cable. Keep holding the Home button and
once the recovery mode screen appears, release the Home button.
Now come back to your computer. Finder or iTunes detects your phone and opens automatically
with the option to Update or Restore. Click on Restore, then click Restore and Update,
and agree the license and terms to begin the process. Your computer begins downloading
the iOS firmware for your phone. When you see “Your iPhone has been restored
to factory settings and is restarting” message, click OK. Wait for your device to restart
and set it up. So that’s all about how to fix an iPhone
screen that is disabled. Please give a like if you enjoy this video. Subscribe to our
