Hi Georgey18,


Re: Cannot connect to App Store ... when I try to erase the phone the password fails….


You may want to check the new iPhone is updated to the newest iOS software version: Look in Settings > General > Software Updates to see if there's an update.

If you choose to update: you may want to back-up iPhone first.

If already updated to the newest iOS version:


Try simply restarting the iPhone (deletes temporary fils, re-establishes connections, may update any recent sting changes, and more. Often restores order if something is not working as expected.
