Iphone 6 disabled can't go into dfu mode.

My iphone won't connect to itunes it says "ITunes could not connect to the IPhone "IPhone (3)" because it is locked with a passcode. It won't go into dfu mode everytime I try it just restarts the phone and goes into the home screen which says "IPhone is disabled". The home button and the sleep/wake button both are working. I have tried every method but, all my phone does is keep restarting what do I do?

TMK this is all you can do:


Connect your device to your computer and open iTunes.

While your device is connected, force restart it: Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home button for at least 10 seconds, and don't release when you see the Apple logo.

Keep holding until you see the recovery mode screen and wait for it to restore.

You may have to do the above more than once as recovery mode is difficult to get into.

Restore as New first and test it. Then restore from backup if desired. If the backup is corrupted it will likely bring back the issue.

If the above steps do not help, you may have to take it to an Apple Store for testing.
