locked iphone - verizon

Anyone know if there is any possible way to unlock it if you do not know the password??

Or maybe theres a way to completely reboot the phone?

verizon told me if i dont know the password there is no way to acess the phone.

Try calling Apple. Verizon isn't as knowledgeable (at least from what I've encountered with their customer service)


I looked up the iphone user manual and this is what it says...

P. 195

If you forget your passcode, you must restore the iPhone software. See “Updating and Restoring iPhone Software” on page 256.

P. 256

Updating and Restoring iPhone Software
You can use iTunes to update or restore iPhone software.
ÂÂIf you update, the iPhone software is updated. Your downloaded apps, settings,
and data aren’t affected.
Note: In some cases, an update may also involve restoring iPhone.
ÂÂIf you restore, the latest version of iPhone software is reinstalled, settings are restored to their default, and all data stored on iPhone is deleted, including downloaded apps, songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. If you’ve backed up iPhone with iTunes on your computer, you can restore data from the backup at the end of the restore process.
Deleted data is no longer accessible via the iPhone user interface, but it isn’t erased from iPhone. For information about erasing all content and settings, see “Resetting iPhone” on page 201.
If you use a Bluetooth headset or car kit with iPhone and you restore settings, you must pair the Bluetooth device with iPhone again to use it.

I had a verizon blackberry unlocked for my AT&T service... and it didn't work properly.. I ended up switching from my brand new smart phone back to my stupid phone..

Hope you have better luck!

I think restoring it to its default setting will be your best bet. Good luck!
