So, after going through the restore regamarow of downloading an update (???) to my iPhone 8 and waiting the allotted 59 minutes, I now have the screen that for the passcode which I never changed but is now WRONG!!!! Now what do I do??? Still waiting for some kind of guidance
You can sometimes remedy this without a computer if on iOS 15.2 or later by tapping on "erase iPhone" , but you will still need the Apple ID password.
It will WIPE the phone, no choice!
