No, the info is already gone. Hoperfully you were backing it up with iCloud or iTunes; if not, it's too late.

My Iphone 4 has locked me out. Homescreen will show up but cannot get slider to open keypad. SOmetimes if I tap enough things the key pad will display. When I enter the passcode it will not register. If I hit each passcode number twice it will register but then tells me I have the wrong code. I also have boxes and rectangles that appear to highlight items which never used to come up. Anyone have any experience with something like this?

Screen has locked and can't turn it on

My iPhone screen is turned off. How do I turn it back on.
This occurred while I was turning the voice override on and off.

Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not help, try to connect in recovery mode to your computer and restore, explained here:

My iPhone 3GS has blank screen, won't turn on

I updated to iTunes 9.2 (on Vista); went fine. Backed up iPhone; went fine. Then, attempted to update to new phone OS. It downloaded the whole OS then started the install. In the middle, iTunes displayed an unknown error message telling me it couldn't finish the Update. Now, my phone is black and will not go into DFU mode. I have restarted my computer, done a repair install of iTunes 9.2. Tried all the different USB ports on my computer. Nothing works. Is there any solution?

Also tried completely removing everything Apple (posted from on a similar thread): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Still no DFU.
