Downloaded 15.3 to phone and forgot to install update and now my passcode isn't recognized

Recovery is not working and if I can update this phone through iTunes I can save my last 3 months of pictures. Also Apple has my phone on IOS 14 listed below but it's on 15.2 really strange.

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14

Unfortunately, no. Once you've forgotten your passcode your phone is locked and you can't recover your data.


Did you follow these instructions to unlock your phone?
