When you enter your Passcode incorrectly, after a few attempts you will have to wait for the next attempt. The waiting time will be extended each time you enter the code incorrectly. If you have forgotten your Passcode, it cannot be restored.


Unfortunately, this means that your iPhone must be restored to the factory settings if you do NOT remember the code.
