You need to follow the instructions in this Apple support article—>If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

So if you tell the truth it is a bad tone and disrespectful?


Here is your only shot at getting all that back and it is a long shot at best if it was saying the phone was disabled.

Find a 3rd party repair shop that is open that can do board level soldering. Have them replace you screen with a non-apple one then see if you can get a passcode screen so you can log in. If you can check to see if your photos are there and then IMMEDIATELY back everything up.


If instead you still get the disable screen all of your data, photos, etc. are gone.

One if you have an iPhone 6s or later won’t iPhone 11 actual home button press and hold them volume and press and hold the home button in the top button together reboot your phone, release the top button but keep hold of the home button

closure on phone into your computer with iTunes, it should say an iPhone has been detected into recovery mode

do an iTunes back up and then press update in the store

set up your phone again from the iTunes back up and roll your Apple ID information and you’re ready to go again

What does this have to do with the subject of this thread, which is about disabled iPhones, not disabled Apple IDs?


See this Apple support link➡️Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes


And note this statement from that link:
