- Crosseye_Jack 8y agoThe lockouts start small and then increase after waiting out the lockouts. Starts off like 1min, then 15, then an hour then 24 hours. I might have been a dick in a past life and purposely lock my friend or of their phone while drunk at the bar.
- myrandomcomment 8y agoIf you own the phone it is a simple fix. You can: 1. Wipe the phone and restore from backup via iTunes. 2. If you have find my phone you can remote wipe the phone. 3. If you have neither you can put it in DFU mode and wipe it. All of these prevent access to your data which is why you have the lock out feature in the first place.
