FORGOT PASSCODE

I just updated IOS for my iphone (6s). When I start to use it, I need to make a new passcode. I still use my old passcode (never change it), but SADLY I think I’m typo. Maybe I enter the wrong number. And when I want to use it, the passcode is WRONG!

What can I do to unlock my iphone without losing any data? (I haven’t back up my data yet). PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME. I’ve been using this iphone for almost 6 years! My memories for the last 6 years is there! I really need my data :(


I don’t know what to do anymore.. I cried. Literally..

I hate to be the one to break this bad news to you.. but you cannot recover your data once your iPhone is disabled.

You should have been backing up your iPhone.

If you were syncing some of your content to iCloud, you should be able to recover that. But if it was only housed in your iPhone, then it's going to be gone.
