    Hi

    I turned on my iphone 4s, having not used it for about 2 weeks, to discover that it has been disable for 42 years?!


    Has anybody had this problem before? 22,429,380 minutes seems like a bizarre amount of time to be disabled

    do i have to restore it and will this definitely work?

    PLEASE HELP as i do not want to buy a new iphone!


    thanks

    If the battery is removed from the phone or in your case left completely dead, the phone usually resets the date back to 01/01/1970 until it get an internet connection, if you then enter the passcode wrong instead of disabling the phone for 1 minute it disables it for 42years+1minute
    A restore will sort you out

    thank you very very much, i don't know how it happened as i didn't enter the passcode wrong but with the 1970 information you provided me with i managed to connect my iphone to my wifi which set the date back right, meaning i do not have to lose my data, only problem was that i had to remove my 3 sim which it is now not recognizing and says that my phone is not allowed use this network, do you have any suggestions there? thanks

    Not allowed use this network is usually a blacklisted phone from my experience anyway
