iOS 15.2 finally introduces a modern solution.Īs long as the locked iPhone or iPad in question has an active network connection, you can now erase the device from the lock screen (assuming it is running iOS 15.2 or later). In 2021, this represents a pretty antiquated ordeal. This meant if you forgot your iPhone passcode, you would have to put your iPhone into DFU recovery mode and then connect to a PC or Mac to restore via the classic iTunes process.
However, up to now, doing the same when the device is in a locked state has required the use of a computer. Wait until the phone enter in FastBoot Mode Searching for a phone. Press and hold 'Vol-' and insert USB cable 4. Remove SD and SIM cards from the phone 2. It just takes a couple of taps in the Settings app to Erase All Contents and Settings. Work ID: 0000000001ADFD6F Platform: HUAWEI Selected model: TRT-L21 Put the phone in FastBoot Mode: 1. Of course, when an iPhone is unlocked, resetting it to factory stock software is incredibly simple. This new feature is thanks to a new capability when the iOS device is in Security Lockout mode, after too many failed passcode attempts.
Another little tidbit in iOS 15.2 is that Apple has finally added the ability to erase and reset a locked iPhone or iPad, without first needing to connect it to a PC or Mac.
