Q: How can I respond or enter my unlock code on my locked iPhone?

My lost phone has been retrieved. I removed it from my iCloud account via Find my iPhone app. I connected it to iTunes but it only displays the keypad for emergency calls. "To allow access, please respond on your iPhone.." is the message from iTunes. While on my iPhone it says "iPhone is disabled. connect to iTunes."

 

I am using the same desktop computer where I last backed up my iPhone. I authorized the computer with my apple ID to use the iTunes. I connected my (once lost but now found) iPhone to the computer via usb port and iTunes can detect it. Still the only option on my option is "slide for emergency". And over the keypad it displays the words "Emergency call" changing into different languages while below is the green call button. I cannot recall precisely the iOS of my device.

 

What steps should I take to reactivate my phone?

iPhone 4S, iOS 7
