Cannot remove lost mode when found findmyiphone

Hello,
I've had a good look online but cannot find anything that helps free up my phone.
Phone was stolen, I located it using findmyiphone and put it into lost mode. After going to the address it was located at and getting denial (and all surrounding addresses!) I hit the erase button. Later in the day I mail dropped all letter boxes and offered a £100 reward for return today, long story but i got it back, sim had been removed after my initial findmyiphone obviously work and scared them!
I was expecting to put the sim back in, fire it up, let it delete itself (I understand the "erase" request is irreversible) and the restore from my latest iCloud back up. Should be that simple… right?
Phone says "iPhone is disabled connect to iTunes", iTunes says "iTunes could not connect to “Lankstarr” because the iPhone is locked and in Lost Mode."
I cannot see anything on findmyiphone or iTunes to turn this off or reset the phone, can anyone help please?
Thanks,
Luke

how do i take off disabled mode on my iphone?
I've gone with the recovery mode option described above, seems to be doing something!
It looks like somebody probably put an incorrect pin in too many times.
Cheers,
Luke

Activate Lost mode when device not registered?

Hello All,
they say we live n' learn !
I lost my beloved iPhone4 yesterday...& have since found out all about 'find my iPhone' & 'Lost mode'...thin is my 'device' was not registered to iCloud !!
so my question is....is there anyway possible of 'registering it' whilst I do not have it ? Or anyway it can be activated remotely into 'lost mode' without it being a registered device ?
ThankYou

Activation Lock, Lost Mode, Remote Wipe are all iCloud-based features.
No iCloud, no feature. And yeah, the registration needs to be done on the device.

FF 33.0 - I cannot remove avg isearch when open new tab.

I have FF 33.0 installed and have a persistent problem with AVG isearch. I have tried all the help/forums but none have worked.
I have removed Google (via Manage Search Engines) and then click on Restore Defaults, close FF and restart, but AVG isearch re-appears when I open a new tab.
I do not have AVG installed (Windows 8) and isearch or AVG is not listed within Control Panel.
I am my wits end.
I have read that registry settings might be involved and/or also there is a "ghost" FF environment (kept when upgrading FF) that might be the source of the problem.

IPhone is locked and in lost mode and cannot get it sorted.

My iPhone was stolen, but I managed to get it back. However I put it in Lost Mode while it was gone and now that I have it back I cannot seem to get it out of Lost Mode. When I switch it on it says connect to iTunes so I do and when it's connected a message pops up saying it cannot be connected because it is in Lost Mode and locked. Is there anyway to sort this? I cannot connect it to my Wifi either as it is locked so I can't put my wifi password in, therefore I cannot switch off lost mode. Any ideas???

Is there anyway to reset a "lost mode" password?

I used a password in lost mode then found my phone. Phone was lost again and now I cannot add a new password to place it back into lost mode..

That depends entirely on what you were using to write the letter. Since you didn't mention that, there's no way anyone can answer.
For the most part if you're using an application on your machine (e.g. a word processor such as Microsoft Word or Pages, or even an email application such as Mail) then it doesn't matter whether you have an internet connection or not. That leads me to believe you were likely using an online application, in which case you really have to state which one so that someone who's familiar with the site can chime in.

When i found out my iphone, how to erase lost mode

My ipod 5 was stolen but I have find my ipod installed on it but my ipod isn't/never was connected to a wifi network when it was stolen so how will my ipod play sound or go on lost mode and if there's no wifi connected to it?

my ipod 5 was just recently stolen in a waterpark (same with my best friend) and when i went on to find my ipod I pressed play sound and lost mode but it never successfully did all those things because my ipod wasn't or isn't connected to a wifi network as it says in the app. so how will I ever find my ipod if it never is going to connect to a wifi network without the thief accessing my ipod (I have a passcode). and also when I check the app once in a while it says ipod is online but cannot find location, so does that mean the thief is using my ipod or is trying to get in?

Yo are correct. It has to connect to internet for the FindMyiPhne features to be transmitted to the iPod
lost/stolen
No app on the iPod is required.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
iCloud: Erase your device
iCloud: Use Lost Mode
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order
