how can i undisable my phone (after waiting the long waiting period and now reset my itunes password) without physically being able to connect to itunes on a computer.

I accidentally disabled my phone after entering the wrong passcode in too many times (oops) and i had to wait almost an entire month before Apple would let me recover and change my password. When I plug my phone into my computer nothing happens. it vibrates a few times quickly. I wonder if my charge port is not working or something? is there another way to un disable my phone if I do not have access to plug my phone into my computer.

Do you mean the screen lock passcode or the Apple ID password?


Apple can't recover your screen lock passcode; the only way to do that is with iTunes on a computer, as described here-->If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support.


If you have forgotten your Apple ID passcode Apple can help you with that, or you may be able to do it yourself-->If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support


I'm not sure what you had to wait a month for.
