How can I reset iPhone without passcode after locked out?

A few days ago, I came across a post on Apple's forum about resetting an iPhone without a passcode. In the comments section, someone recommended iDeviceRestore—it's important to note that this is a command-line tool.

If you want to know how to reset iphone without passcode, you can use this tool. Even if “Find My iPhone” isn't enabled, it can erase a locked iPhone and restore its iOS firmware.

Important Notes:

• Data Loss: The “erase” option will permanently delete existing data and any forgotten screen passcodes.
• Firmware: The “latest” option will download the available firmware and may prompt you to select a version signed by Apple.
• Activation Lock: Restoring an iPhone cannot bypass the activation lock; if this occurs, you will need to use the associated Apple ID or go through Apple's official ownership verification process.

How to Reset iPhone Without Passcode

Step 1: Download the project from its official GitHub repository, and install or compile it according to the instructions for your operating system.

Step 2: Turn off your iPhone, then connect it to your computer in recovery mode using the buttons corresponding to your iPhone model.

Step 3: Open Terminal and check if the tool is installed:

idevicerestore --help

Step 4: To erase the device and restore a usable, Apple-signed firmware version, run:

idevicerestore --erase --latest

Step 5: Follow the Terminal prompts to select an available firmware and confirm the restore. Keep your iPhone connected until the process is complete.

Finally, when the “Hello” screen appears, you can set up your iPhone again and restore your backup.
