i think u can hard reset the 5 same as the 4 by holding down the home and power buttons at the same time for about a minute!!
This does no good at all if the owner does not know the password.
i know it does on the 4 and 4s as well as all ipod 4th gen.
it takes it back to the factory screen as if it were new..
No it does not. How about you try it and do the thing you are suggesting and get back to me and let me know if reseting (holding both buttons and lettign go when the apple logo appears) returns the phone to factory settings. You would be well advised to do some reading as it might (just might) make your comments more helpful.
done it on my own kids 4s as well as someone also responded not to long ago that it fixed their problem as well!!
but u dont let go when the logo appears that will only soft reset it u keep holding them til the logo dissapears again!!
im only offering advice from what i have done myself and nothing more!!
As I said above:
The reset does no good at all if the owner does not know the password. Once the iPhone starts up, it will ask the password.
again i just know that my 4s went back to the original startup screen starting with asking me my country etc.
Think about it ...
My iPhone (whichever model - I've had all seven) is password protected. Let's say I lose my iPhone and you find it. Would it make any sense at all that you could simply reset my iPhone as you describe and all my password protection would be thrown away?
Maybe it worked with iOS 1.0. But it sure as heck will not work with iOS 7.
Worse still if it were, perchance, in Activation Lock.
There is something strange going on here. There are multiple posts by different OPs with similar if not identical problems and all the OPs joined 21 April and the person who is answering with answers that are wrong also joined 21 April. Go figure?
this better for ya?
Well, that is the same as the first response I made to the original poster way up at the top.
