The phone is Unavailable because the wrong passcode was entered too many times. When this occurs, the user is locked out of their own phone. Now the phone must be reset / erased and set up again.

If your iPhone is running iOS 15.2 or higher........you can use the instructions linked just below:

If your iPhone is not running iOS 15.2 or higher........please use the instructions linked below, but note that you must use a PC or Mac.

If you have a backup of the phone, you can use the backup to restore the data on the phone during the new setup.
