How do i reset my iphone without a computer?

At school a few friends took my iphone and put a passcode on it without me knowing. They changed the code multiple times and didnt remember the correct code. Now my phone is disabled and says connect to itunes. When i connect to the computer itunes says'Itunes cannot connect to this iphone because it it is locked with a passcode. You must enter the passcode before you can use it with itunes.' Since I dont know the passcode i cannot access itunes to reset my phone. I logged on to my icloud account and went to 'Find my Iphone' and clicked on erase iphone, but you cant erase it unless the phone is connected to wifi. At the time this happened my data was turned off since i was picking up wifi from the school, problem is im not at school and therefore my phone cant pick up internet especially since it is disabled. Ive called Verizon and none of the thingsthey told me to try worked so they told me to contact you. Can you help me?

Hello, jall11. 
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand your iPhone has an unknown passcode enabled, the following article may help to resolve your issue.

    how can i reset my iphone without update to ios 7.0.6

    You can wipe the device without updating:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
    I would be remiss not to mention that iOS 7.0.6 patches a security flaw.
    If you choose not to update, your device will be at risk.

  • HT4113 how do i reset my iPhone without iTunes?

    i would like to know how can i enable my iphone without itunes.

    A reset has nothing to do with iTunes.
    What is meant by "enable" the iPhone?
    If it is locked with a passcode and the passcode is unknown or forgotten, the only way to get the device functional is a restore via iTunes on a computer.

  • How can I update my iphone without a computer or itunes?

    I was at the luandromat using my laptop to sync my Iphone 3gs and there was a large power surge. It fried my laptop and my Iphone 3gs. Now I'm using my old Iphone 3g whcih is running software 3.1.3 and I want to know how or if I can update the software with out having access to itunes or even a functioning computer.

    "Really? "
    Yes.  It has always been this way.  Itunes and a computer were listed as REQUIREMENTS on both the box the iphone came in and the website.
    "If that's the case then I think I may just switch to the Droid network."
    Enjoy your Droid.

  • HT201401 How can i reset my iphone if the Sleep/Wake button does not work?

    My camera shuts off every time that I try to take a picture. I would like to reset my IPhone in order to try and solve the problem. My Sleep/Wake button does not work.
    How can I reset my IPhone without the Sleep/Wake Button working?
    Thanks for the help.

    When pressing the sheep/wake button, the iPhone's screen is not turned off if on and does not turn on if off, and pressing and holding the sleep/wake or on/off button does not bring up slide to power off?
    And you can't do a reset by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
    If so and there is no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes, make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby since more than likely there is a hardware problem.

    Hello anacc,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Connect your USB cable to your computer but not to the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until step 3.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button down, connect the USB cable to the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen. When this screen appears, you can release the Home button:
    Note: If the image of a battery appears, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again. If you don't see the Connect to iTunes screen, try these steps 1 through 4 again.
    iTunes should automatically open and display the following message:
    "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."Note: If iTunes not open after two minutes, please open iTunes yourself.
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Someone changed my passcode! How do I reset my phone without a power cord or iTunes?

    Well earlier this week, my iPhone 5c was stolen. but I got it back from the school's office. I had a passcode sent on it before so i simply entered that passcode into the phone but it wouldn't let me in at all. Now i guess you can say that the person who took my phone bypassed the passcode and changed it. I was wondering how do you reset the phone without a power cord or iTunes?

    Unfortunately, you can't.  You will need to access the computer you sync with and use iTunes.  This link will provide help:

    Well, it appears that your backup is corrupt, thus causing your issue. So, you'll have to restore as a new device, & not from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone:
