The easiest option is to plug it into iTunes and use the restore function.

i.e. When the phone comes up in iTunes then select the general page and beside/under the update button is one that says restore. Click restore and set up an a new iPhone. This is the only way to get rid of the restrictions that you have on the drive. You have to set it up as new.
