How to Bypass iPhone Passcode

Four Methods:Using iOS8Using iOS 6.1Using iOS 6.1.3 on an


iPhone 4Using iOS 4.1

This article will tell you the easiest way to bypass the iPhone passcode. This method
takes a little bit of practice, and you still won't be able to access much beyond contacts
and call history, but it's a start.

Method 1 of 4: Using iOS8

1.

Turn the phone on. Note that this method will only work if you have allowed Siri to
work on the lock screen.

2.

2
Click and hold the Home button to activate Siri.

3.

3
Ask Siri something. From the lock screen, you can view Notes, Recent Calls, Post to
Facebook or Twitter, or send a message.

4.

4
To turn this setting off, go to Settings --> Passcode -->Siri, and toggle it to off.

Method 2 of 4: Using iOS 6.1

1.

1
Turn the phone on and go to the Emergency Call screen.

2.

2
Hold the Power button down long enough to bring up the power off slide screen.

3.

3
When the power off slide screen appears, hit "Cancel."

4.

4
Dial a three-digit emergency call number, such as "112," without letting the call
connect. Hit the end button before the call connects. This is very important. If you let
the call connect, you're going to attract a lot of unwanted attention.

5. 5

Put the phone into Standby by hitting the Power button.

6.

6
Turn the phone back on again by hitting the Power button.

7.

7
Hold down the Power button for approximately three seconds, hitting the
Emergency Call button immediately before the phone brings up the power off
slide screen. This will take some practice to get right. If you are brought to a black
screen, you are either holding the Power button slightly too long or your timing is
otherwise slightly off. Keep holding down the Power button.

8.

8
Continuing to hold the Power button, navigate around your phone to view your
contacts and call history. You cannot do much in this mode. What you can do is:

Make calls

View call history

View and edit contacts

9.

9
Try this trick if you don't want to keep holding the Power button while you
navigate through the phone. Take a screenshot while simultaneously removing your
hand from the Power button. Do this by hitting the Home button and listening for the
shutter sound.

Method 3 of 4: Using iOS 6.1.3 on an iPhone 4

1.

1
Turn the phone on by hitting the Power button.

2.

2
Before navigating to the passcode screen, hold down on the Home button to
activate the Voice dial command.

3.

3
Say a command, such as "Dial 123."

4.

4
As soon as the phone starts dialing, quickly eject the SIM card on the right side of
the phone. You can do this with a paperclip.

5.

5
Access the phone's contacts and pictures, if desired. Because the SIM card is
ejected, you won't be able to make any calls, but you will be able to look through
pictures (by adding pictures to a contact) and sort through contacts.

Method 4 of 4: Using iOS 4.1

1.

1
Tap "Emergency Call".

2.

2
Type in "###", hit the green Call button and immediately hit the Lock button.

3.

3
Find yourself in the Address book, where you can send an email, MMS, access
the camera, and make phone calls. However, if you do nothing for a couple seconds,
you will be locked out again.
