Oct 23, 2015 8:37 PM in response to richie@1982by mcculloch9900,Hey there, sorry to hear that you're locked out of your friend's iPod touch. Below I have pasted instructions that fit your needs; although the article's title may not be what you like, the content is (especially the 3rd option), it explains how to restore the device's factory settings without any verification. Please remember that your friend may not be happy if this is a joke or if you have stolen the device (also, it's illegal).
Restore using recovery mode
If you've never synced with iTunes or set up Find My iPhone in iCloud, you'll need to use recovery mode to restore your device. This will erase the device and its passcode.
- Connect your iOS device to your computer and open iTunes. If you don't have a computer, borrow one from a friend, or go to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider.
- While your device is connected, force restart it: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. Don't let go when you see the Apple logo — keep holding until you see the recovery mode screen.

- When you see the option to Restore or Update, choose Restore.

iTunes will download software for your device. If it takes more than 15 minutes, your device will exit recovery mode and you'll need to repeat steps 2 and 3. - Wait for the process to finish. Then you can set up and use your device.
Please consult: If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
