Hi, recently i got my phone and it says, "iphone is disabled connect to itunes". I was going to restore my phone, but then I realized I never backed anything up on my phone. Is there any way to unlock my phone without erasing everything? And if i do erase it and back it up, will my wallpapers and my home screens stay the same?
iPhone X, iOS 15
Since you never backed it up, it will be like a new phone after you restore it. There is no way to retrieve the data on a disabled iPhone, or unlock it without erasing it first.
