If your phone requires you to sign into itunes:
If you know the iPhone passcode and have backed it up recently, you can simply unlock the device with iTunes though it requires a restore:
- Connect the iPhone to a computer it has synced to before with a USB cable and launch iTunes
- Choose “Sync” in iTunes and enter the proper passcode when requested to unlock the device, this backs up the iPhone to the computer
- Choose “Restore” to restore the iPhone from the most recent backup
If you don’t know the iPhone passcode, you have to wipe the iPhone clean and it will erase all data using recovery mode. If you made a backup to iTunes or iCloud, you can restore it after the fact to that backup.
