Hey salosawaya,
If you have never synced your device with iTunes and you forgot your passcode, you'll follow these directions:
If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
"iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
"You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
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 shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom

I have 3GS, children changed passcode and now cant get into it. Any way to disable passcode without loosing info like contacts texts etc?

passcode was changed and dont know to what. How can i delete/change passcode without deleting contacts, texts,etc?

If you restore the phone using the computer it normally syncs with, the passcode will be removed. The passcode is not part of the backup. You will lose any data since the last backup. If you don't have access to that computer, you will have to put the phone in recovery mode and restore it as a new device. This will erase ALL data on the phone.

How do you unlock your iphone if you forgot your passcode and blocked it?

I have overguessed my passcode and now cant get on my phone?

I offered you help which included much more than just saying you're fishy, and I said this sounds fishy and it certainly does with or without your so called "facts", which certainly can't be proven based on what you say alone.
If you use the same computer that has been used for syncing with your iPhone, it shouldn't make any difference that you changed the passcode out of the blue last night that can' be remembered.
If not, you must place the iPhone into recovery mode. If successful, this will required restoring your iPhone with iTunes. If done on a computer not used for syncing your iPhone, you won't be able to restore from the backup, none of the photos on your iPhone that were transferred from the computer used for syncing your iPhone will be available, your contacts will not be available unless you are accessing an email account that includes over the air syncing for contacts, and none of your iTunes content will be available to be re-transferred to your iPhone - no music, movies, tv shows, or apps.

You can't. If there was a way to get into the phone and backup data without a passcode, what would be the purpose of the passcode?
Either think harder, or prepare to lose all your data.
