If the passcode is not accepted by your iPhone, it is possible that the passcode you are entering, although correct in your memory, might belong to a different device. Passcodes are device-specific and cannot be used interchangeably across different devices. For example, if you have multiple devices and each has its own unique passcode, entering the passcode of one device on another will not work. Always ensure you are using the correct passcode associated with the specific device in question.

(*-If you have turned on iCloud Photos, your content is automatically stored in iCloud.)

Learn how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.
If you are not the rightful owner of this iPhone and do not possess the associated Apple ID and password, there is absolutely no way to gain access to the device. Apple’s security framework is designed to prevent unauthorized use, so the only circumstance in which you could unlock the phone is if the original owner willingly provides their credentials. In rare cases, access might become possible if the owner unintentionally removes the device from their Apple ID account, but this is purely accidental and not something you can rely on. In essence, without the Apple ID and password, the iPhone remains permanently tied to its legitimate owner.
