To avoid being a lock for many years or hours, what is the trick to unlock my old iPhone 4. I did remember my Apple ID and username and password. However, I forget my iPhone password. Is it better to try 4 times each day to avoid being lockout for a longer time? Or range for week or month, does anyone have to try this trick? Now the iPhone is disabled Thanks
if youve forgotten the passcode then it looks like youre kind of out of luck. i would recommend taking it slow like you were doing and attempting to unlock a couple times a day for it to reset.
