This allowed me to skip the wait for entering the passcode again. My hack was to change the date & time on my iPhone every time there was a failed attempt. Ultimately I found a hack that lets me get more attempts at guessing the right passcode, but it seems I was out of luck. Each time I would enter a wrong combination, a timer would prevent my from trying again immediately. I might have set it up at the beginning, but given that it is not used everyday, I forgot this 4 digit passcode.

You may have already guessed, I didn’t remember my restrictions passcode. I need to enter the Restrictions Passcode in addition to my regular passcode. While none of the settings I changed restricted my iPhone usage, problem occurred when I wanted to hard reset my iPhone. A lot of you would wonder what is Restrictions? If you haven’t encountered it, that’s probably a good thing, because as it occurred to me, I had enabled Restrictions on my iPhone (also referred to as Parental Controls).
