You can't reset without losing data. From the article below.


If you backed up your device, you can restore your data and settings after restoring your device. If you never backed up your device before you forgot your passcode, you won't be able to save the data on your device. 


Passcode - If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled
