Hi dagvasuren,

Welcome to the Apple Community.


Wondering if your phone returns a message that it is disabled when you try to log-in,

OR

whether you put the iPhone into "Lost" mode.


Apple support have an article online

if a message says that your iPhone is disabled, learn what to do.

Says:

If you enter the wrong passcode on your iPhone Lock Screen too many times,

an alert will let you know that your iPhone has been disabled.

Wait for awhile, then try again.

OR

If you put the iPhone into "Lost" mode:


This article from Apple Support: "Use Lost Mode in Find My iPhone on iCloud.com"

Says:

You can try recovering the images through iCloud, but you cannot recover the information and setting on your iPhone since you need to put your iPhone in recovery mode and wipe it completely through iTunes or Finder. As you says Find my iPhone is turn off, so you don't need your iCloud username and password since Activation Lock is turn off.
