To recover it at this point you need to restore it using the computer it was last backed up to. This will remove the passcode.

Connect to iTunes & hit the restore button on the Summary Pane. This will restore as a new device. Eject when finished.

You have to ignore talhakhan99's suggestion at all costs.
Jailbreaking violates Apple's Terms of Use and this forum can offer no help or support for jailbroken devices. You risk making your iPhone completely useless. If you wish, you can read Apple's thoughts on this here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743 .
I feel confident that this thread will be removed shortly as a consequence of talhakhan99's coments.
As for you actual question about texting on an iPhone, it should be reasonably easy to work out how to do it if ytou are already familiar with texting on phones. -

I have an iPhone 3GS that I dropped in water for a moment. After drying it and everything, it still does everything but get service. Can I back it up and transfer its data to a new iPhone 3GS? I heard something about how loading a backup from a water damaged phone could mess up the new one... is this true? I would truly appreciate the help, please let me know, thanks!
Sounds like your phone is in recovery mode. In this case, all data on it is gone. There's nothing to back up.

I have the iphone 3Gs and an old Powerbookb but whatsapp is no longer functioning. Does this mean that soon I'll have to throw away this useless phone?
If Whatsapp is on your iPhone now and is not working, that would be a matter for Whatsapp support.
If you cannot install Whatapp due to iOS on your computer being to old, you can try upgrading iTunes to 10.6.3, if you haven't done so already, presuming your PB is running Mac OS X 10.5.8, which may allow you to upgrade iOS on your iPhone. If your computer is not running 10.5, then you'll need to find a retail copy of 10.5 and upgrade.
The last PowerBook was discontinued seven years ago, though, so it may be time to consider upgrading to an Intel-based MacBook.

I have an IPhone 3GS that keeps getting the message "charging not supported by this device" Dismiss. I have tried several different ac adaptors, car chargers and even directly connected to USB on computer and still get the same message. Software is up to date as well. Help!
Clean the dock connector with a soft dry brush.

Glenn,
I tried upgrading to leopard, even bought the software and brought it home but it wouldn't let me. So i went back to apple, gave them the specifications of the machine and been told my machine is simply too old for leopard. This is incredible to me because it really isn't THAT old (i think just a little over 6 years maybe) and yet i'm left out on the curb when it comes to using newer apple products. I understand technology moves on but the mindset that i am supposed to dump a perfectly working machine after a couple of years or face not being able to use any other apple product is counter to what thought apple was about. -
I have an iPhone 5s. Just updated from my 5. My husband just got an iPhone. I purchased music over the last year.
He was told to create his own account we don't get each others messages. But how can he upload music I already purchased?
Also my dads got over a thousand songs on his iTunes account. Is there a way to share? I get the whole stealing music stuff but this is purchased music I'm talking about. He paid for albums of music. Mine are random songs and a few albums.
And last. I have CDs I purchased. How do I put them onto my iTunes account. My dad set it up for me two years ago (3 phones ago) n I'm not
Sure how to do this. My original computer n then my laptop both crashed so I don't have access

You can backup only your settings, messages, recent calls, apps and Camera Roll in your new iTunes.
