I understand your situation. Restoring your iPhone does erase all things on your iPhone.


However, you can't access iPhone functions and apps unless you remember the passcode or restore your device. I suggest you list any possible codes and then try to use them to unlock your iPhone.


If it won't work still, then restore it.


BTW, don't believe any software which could restore the device without data loss.
