OMG OUT OF ALL THE SHTPOSTS I HAVE MADE THIS ONE IS INTENSE.


MY COUSIN

CHANGED MY IPHONE PASSWORD

AND IF I TURN OFF MY PHONE IM DONE FOR

WHAT DO I DO

I’m still scared rn. I’m thinking of keeping my phone turned on 24/7 while charging for maybe the rest of my life

hehe hope this helps :-)

Do you have Fingerprint/Face ID?

EDIT: Welp, my heart goes out to you. Good luck.

NOPE.

My only request for help is for someone to find me a number pattern generator that has the option to give me combinations of three last digits being the same digit in a four number pattern. I can’t find any combination generator that has a specific option like that but if someone could find one I’d give my soul away

If you plug the phone in to your computer, does it give you the option to authorize the computer (and thus back it up) without entering the password?

If so, I'd recommend backing up the phone then restoring it using that backup. I'm not sure what you might lose from doing this, though.

Does your cousin not know the password?

I don't remember specifically how on iPhone's, But there is ways you can get the password removed they do have multiple ways to do so depending what IPhone you have. If you bring it to a CTA or your phone provider like Apple store or whatever, They'll resolve the issue at a fairly cheap price. But I'd ask your cousin the password first or start beating him up for the password it usually works that way

She didn’t know the password and I kept my phone on and charging all night and I woke up to guess the password again for the 10th time now my phone is disabled. I’m not sure if I backed up my phone or whatever but I know I sent all my photos to my dad and shared it on iCloud so at least I won’t lose my photos if I reset. It’s a fairly new phone so there isn’t much for me to emotionally lose

Well i kinda just stole my aunts laptop and im downloading itunes on it so ye i'll update u guys if any1 cares

Update: my aunts laptop is too old and slow to download itunes...

You could try a factory reset with a 3rd party tool although I'm not sure how safe that would be.

Tbh all i need is just a computer with itunes on it. But i cant afford one rn neither do i want one long term

There’s a trick I know, but it requires you to completely reset your phone. As long as you have iCloud, this works.
If you hold down both the power and the home button for 2 minutes it will flash a connect to iTunes sign. If the iTunes matches with your phone, it works. Same thing happened to my mothers iPad because of my nephew. Try taking it to your phone provider.

put it in rice

wdym by that?

when i was younger me and my friend changed the password to my friends ipod as a prank and forgot what we changed it to lol

he fixed it using a youtube tutorial i forgot what but it was probably the thing with plugging it into a computer.....

really your only options here are to plug it into a computer and reset or take it to a provider or tech store or something and they'll do it. maybe ur friend has a laptop of some sort

I would think your internet service provider could reset it for ya. If you have pics and stuff, back them up

Dang my internet/phone provider is 15 miles away and I'm a teen with strict parents. How much would it cost anyways to fix?

My provider is at&t but there’s a t mobile that’s a few blocks away from my house can they fix it?

I mean, the SIM is at&t, so... I assume that would be like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole... And we all know how trying to fit square pegs in round holes works...

Top 5 anime betrayal

Go to one of those less official providers like cricket and those other obscure ones. They reset & unlock phones for people. Not sure what they'll charge ya, but I know when people steal phones, they go to them to unlock it cause they don't ask questions or care who's phone it is.

I don’t have a computer...

K i’ll try there’s a cricket store a few blocks away

What pigparty is saying. If you have your stuff backed up via icloud or iTunes you can hard reset it without your passcode

Maybe get a new phone haha

Ok so i also realized that i screwed up in another thing. My phone had a two step authentication set up. Erasing my phone wouldn't be a huge deal for me but i wont be able to access my Apple ID on other devices.

well commandeer a computer, it doesn't have to be expensive.



then do the following

My confirmed plan is to go to the mall eventually with my mom and then go to the apple store secretly and ask them to help me. But idk if its free tho.

Don't you at least know the password to your Apple account?

Honestly, your friend deserves to have their ass beat.

Indeed i do.

Its a 6yr old cousin. Soooo

So the 2 step authentication shouldn't matter then.

It doesn't? I thought it would lock my other devices out from my Apple ID unless i put in a verification code

Idk how Apple's 2 step verification works but I would assume you have your basic password and then another means of verifying your account or resetting your password such as a phone number or an alternative email.

Update: my dads old computer is working and I’m gonna reset my phone ezpz. Except, my dad cares a lot about the computer and uses it for his important documents. He already screamed and scolded my sister for playing on it. And my dad came home as soon as I finished downloading iTunes. The computer is right by the front door of the house where he enters.

Why not just ask? Lol

weeno ur an idiot for giving ur phone to ur cousin/telling him ur password. But I suggest you force your cousin to give u the password. That's the only way you'll have unlimited access to ur phone

Hes an angry smoking man who doesn't feed me

My cousin is in 2nd grade. I put in my pass code in from of her face and she somehow changed it and is a thousand miles away from my house now

Update: **** me.

If u cant read it what its basically saying is that i need to know my passcode so i can reset my iphone. *holds gun up to head*

RIP Weeno "Dip". 2008-2018. He passed on after he got locked out of his iPhone and his angry smoking father punched his grape in after Weeno was starved greatly. He will be remembered as a zone player.

this is honestly better than the real housewives

So i called customer service and they said i have to connect to wifi on the disabled phone so i can log out the iCloud that was on the phone. But i cant connect to wifi so yay kill me now my life sucks. Why does every apple product hate me? My first ipad got a broken screen, i get a new one and the audio gets completely silenced, my third one is on the verge of exploding due to how theres so much on it i cant even fix it , my uncle sat on my other ipad and that cracked and i sold i, now im dealing with a phone that got screwed over by me and my cousin

I've always had an android and I've always loved them. Apple sucks and I have completely stopped buying apple devices now. I used to get iPads (I've always hated macs) but now I've moved to a windows tablet and again, I love it so much more than the iPad.

I'd recommend trading your phone in. Apple actually has a service that I think is still going on where you can trade in your device and they'll give you a gift card for x amount of money to buy something from them (assuming you want another iPhone). Or just trade the phone in for an android and discover the wonder that is android.

u sound like a vegan

I always wanted Android. I can set my own ringtones my own alarm songs and I cna download songs and videos for free like it’s a computer. But I had to get an iPhone cause at&t let my family save money if we buy 4 iPhones opposed to 3 iPhones and an android
—
Trading my iPhone in tho... seems a bit sketchy unless they give me the gift card right away. Also Ima have to do it in a span of like 30 minutes cause I gotta run away from my mom at the mall to an Apple store
—
Customer service also told me that if I could get a proof of purchase for my phone Apple can fix it for a free or little price. So now I gotta find a proof of purchase which is done through finding my phones serial number but I can’t do that because it’s disabled. Another dead end.

YO OMG MY PHONE WORKS NOW IDK HOW I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING I SWEAR OMGGGG

I GO INSIDE MY ROOM TURN ON MY PHONE AND IT HAS THE SCREEN LIKE ITS A NEW PHONE

This went from housewives to a ****ty episode of baitcar where the baitcar breaks and is just a car

Calm the **** down.

can i get like some pizza or something instead of a shoutout?

i want to be. i tried but man years of eating meat makes it tough. doesn't help that I'm not super into vegetables, so... but if anyone was going to be a vegan, it would be an apple owner, js.

Glad you got it fixed! A miracle lol! Probably your dad saw it and fixed it though

It’s not worth it u have to give up on pizza now

Nah no way lol. I put my dads computer back where it belonged before he came home from work so he had no idea I was using it. He’s an old man who can’t even speak proper English I doubt he came into my room and magically fixed my phone xd

No but seriously I have no idea how my phone got fixed. I couldn’t reset my phone cause I had to put in a verification code from an approved device and my disabled phone was the only approved one. So overall I did absolutely nothing to my phone and it got fixed somehow
