No, we cannot sort this from our end. You have unfortunately entered the wrong passcode for your phone too many times and have locked yourself out of your own phone. You yourself must sort this out.


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

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