The ONLY way to “unlock” an iPhone - the actual device - is by correctly entering it’s passcode.


No “recovery” method - all of which recover access to your AppleID - will help.


Without the passcode … which is unrecoverable by ANY means … the phone must be reset (erased) and restored from a backup as described here:


If you see an iPhone or iPad unavailable message or Security Lockout screen – Apple Support (AU)


If you’ve ALSO forgotten your AppleID password, see your options this article:


If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support


If your phone is “Activation Locked” … get the previous AppleID registered-user to perform these actions.
