No. All you can do is wait and try again. Each time you get the screen lock passcode wrong though, the timeout will increase until finally the device is disabled.


The one and only way to reset a device screen lock passcode is to erase it by restoring it. See instructions in -> If you forgot your iPhone passcode - Apple Support
