How do I unlock iPhone if locked out for 3 hours


Wait for the 3 hours and then enter the correct passcode.


If you continue to enter the wrong passcode, you will soon be completely locked out of the phone. At that time, the phone's screen will display Unavailable or Security Lockout.


Post back for more instructions when / if this occurs.
